The sorties of free souls

Constructed

It hurts, my head hurts. There's only a spin around my skip as I take my way up from the concrete hard rubble floor I had laid my back upon. Things felt, different, I never had green hair, neither did I have these clothes on! Well, I don't think, anyway. Who am I, exactly? How do I know what I have, and don't have? Obviously, apart from having amnesia. Standing up, feeling just a little weak, I walk around the area that's around me. It seemed like a military base to me, the ones you'd see in the movies, the ones with the big hangers! But why do I know this? Damn it, it's confusing. I have amnesia for the important things, but for stupid things like movies, I remember! This is kinda stressful. I wonder, did I have friends that took me somewhere, and did some crazy stuff to me? That would be the worst if that happened, to be honest. I'm starting to worry, these thoughts are driving up my head! I grab my head, as I spring up, in slight freight, confusion and distress, while I proceed to call out "Ah! Someone please just come over and introduce me!" Ouch, that was not smart of me, grabbing my head which meant grabbing my hair, I'm sensitive to that apparently. I fell to the ground, covering the spot where I pulled on my hair, which felt like a wildfire in the middle of summer, as I crouched, cursing myself for my stupidity, there was a girl to introduce me, a little one, she seemed to be wearing a school uniform, is this some kind of school, maybe? It's too late for a little girl to be out. I stood up, as she concernedly looked up at me, it wasn't like I was that much taller than her though. I sighed and smiled, as I found the chance to finally do something, I held out my hand to the little girl and she only looked confused. I looked at her with a single eye, the glance I saw was now with her blushing, but I guess she was always blushing. I pat her head gently, and crouch to her size, sadly, she only backed away, and toppled behind the massive ocean before us. I say nothing in shock, and realization that I might've just killed the first person I've met. I giggle nervously and back away from the ocean, until I said screw it and jumped in. And that was the day, I found out, I couldn't swim. I was struggling up and down, bobbing my head, trying to get up for a good breath, I said goodbye to my life, so I dived down, not seeing the little girl I had just pushed over, I go up to get more air, just barely, until a hand is pulling me up. The little girl! Oh my god, she saved me! And she's floating on water, is she Jesus or something? "P-Please be careful next time, Zuikaku, you're lucky the ship girls always have to wear their equipment, did Akashi not put yours on?" she said and asked. Zuikaku? Zuikaku, is that my name? And equipment? Well, I did see that strange thing on her feet, and back, but I didn't pay attention to that, everything is a fashion trend now a days! "Oh yeah, sorry, little one? Who is this Akashi person, and maybe you can answer, where exactly am I?" The girl looked at me in confusion, as I was hanging from her arm, still dipped in the cold water, I didn't say anything, just to make sure nothing happens, but the girl just sighed and pushed me back on top of the land, as I hug the hardened, rocky floor. "My name is Ushio, Akashi is the person who repairs people and gives everyone their equipment, I need to take you to the admiral, you're broken," she said. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, young lady, admiral? I'm broken? What do you mean, little one?" I said, as I was a bit confused out by all of this so far. Ushio proceeded to take me to a building, in the building, it seemed like a small office, in the office, there was someone sleeping on the chair, with their face covered by their hat. I assumed it was the admiral, considering the white uniform, the badges and the hat and all. Not to mention that person was sleeping in a chair in the middle of the damn room, which was strange to me. To the admiral's side, was a girl with white hair, she seemed to have the same uniform as I did, as well, sleeping... Is it that late here or what? Or are these people just narcoleptic? This is probably just a waste of time, I swear, why am I even here? In the room, there was a minibar, it had a good old bottle of sake on it! I want that! But the young one might see me! I don't care if I'm old enough or not, I deserve that, after the confusion and stress this girl has been into! In the corner of the room, was a fan, I noticed that near the girl was a crooked bookshelf, it was ever so fragile, moving a bit as the fan pointed towards it, after rotations. But who am I to assume that the fan's the cause, and why would I even observe these? I'm a strange person, I've known that now. I smile as I try to push away the girl, Ushio, so I can be alone with the sake for a bit, the girl finally was convinced to leave me, as I came up with the excuse of how I wanted to confront the admiral by myself, and didn't need third party disputers in the room yet. I sparkled in my eyes, at my cunning abilities to do this, I sneak behind the minibar and lay on the floor, getting the sake bottle ready! I am excited, I am so excited, I get it open, but coincidentally at the same time, the girl in the same outfit as me had woken up for a moment, while coincidentally, many books fell on her head, after the bookshelf had tilted down towards her, as she coincidentally fell on the admiral, as she passed out, and obviously, the admiral woke up. I silently heard what went on, so I started to drink the sake like it was my life. Tipsy, everything is tipsy, lightweight I am is! Crawling out of the minibar, the admiral spots me on sight, and I just see him patting down, stroking on something, on his lap. I giggle and I barely stand up, I walk up to him and managed to ask, "who am I?" The only reply this male human being in a white coat smiled with, "Zuikaku, you're supposed to introduce yourself to me, I crafted you today, six hours ago. You're an aircraft carrier, the girl on my lap is Shokaku, your sister ship. I used the demon summoning recipe and I got you." "Demon summoning recipe and you got me? Kid, I got booze! Are you saying I'm a demon? T-Thank you but screw you!" For some reason, that's what I said. And I punched the admiral on the face, before immediately passing out, hitting his desk, and falling on the floor. I only wake up, sober, in his office, alone, gladly with no headache, sadly with a pervert that I am sitting on! I jump up from the admiral, and upon landing on the ground, I kick his face as hard as I could, I could feel myself burning up, as I yelled "do you want to get bombed!?" Huh, maybe I kicked him too hard, I don't think I did, I could of kicked him out of his window. Oops, I think I did go too hard, he's bleeding and all, and the windows broken, not my fault! I smile and I walk out, not feeling a shame of guilt on myself, until I so proudly walked into two girls, and which of one of them, gave me a stank eye. I look back as she pulls me, as the two girls walked. "My name is Kaga, aircraft carrier of the 1st division," the girl with the short hair, and more blue armor said, while the girl with the red armor and long hair smiled at me, with what seemed to be rocks in her mouth? I could barely make out the words of "Akagi! _____ division carrier!" The girl with the short hair only sighed, as if she were somewhat annoyed, while walking. Ushio, admiral, Shokaku, Akagi and Kaga... The people I've met on my day here, they're pretty interesting, I wonder what kind of mischief I'll be pulled in now! Because I do really not know what happened today, maybe I'll find out in the next day. That's just a maybe, maybe I'll never find out, if that's for the best. But I'll just search for an explanation for now. An explanation for being crafted, ship girls, and that perverted admiral... I need to find out who I am too, why am I here? Who are these other people? I'm guessing this is just a start of my story. A very long one, my story...
