[ Azur Lane ] Phantom 182

Chapter 1

? Rainforest

"Ughhh. . ." Enterprise felt weak and could barely move a muscle while feeling tons of raindrops all over his body, he felt soaking wet. He slowly opened his eyes and noticed the greyish stormy cloud could above him and powerful bright lightning flash around the clouds.

Enterprise slowly and steadily sat up in the dirt still being pummeled by the strong winds and the raindrops but he eventually overcome it. He noticed he was surrounded by trees, Some of the branches where bending and some were even ripped of due to the strong winds. He was possibly deep within a rainforest as for where? there's a small possibility that he is at the same rainforest earlier during his mission however he knew no such thing can survive a nuclear bomb from point blank range or maybe he was just hallucinating which is likely the case as nobody could survive a nuke detonating near. He decided he would ask those questions later after he has successfully regrouped with his team members, if they where here anyways. Enterprise Activated his riggings to see if it works and luckily its still intact But the bad news is the he cant use it. For unknown reasons the electronic systems and other systems he had malfunctioned or either burnt up by that grenade from the sirens, well most of his electronics are fried from the inside at least he still had some intact. Enterprise turned on his radio.

[This is USS Enterprise can anybody hear me, I repeat this is USS enterprise can anybody hear me?]

Enterprise tried to get in contact with anybody on all frequency but unfortunately no luck either so changed to using other communication devices in his riggings but all of them had their electronic fried up bad. Enterprise soon gave up on trying to use his communications and navigation system as he would hand them to Artic later, If she was here too.

Enterprise then deactivated his riggings due to how much energy activating the rigging would cost and they couldn't help much in this situation too since he cant use the riggings power when his this weak. He decided to move on and start the search hoping he'll find somebody who he knew.

He quickly got up even with all the pain and tried to look for his teammates despite the heavy rain and winds but after awhile of randomly walking around the rainforest he spotted Kaga laying near the riverbed. Enterprise Quickly walked up to her and tried to see if she was still breathing which luckily she was but from an eye perspective she looks fucked up bad from the bruises across her body which was understandable because she was the closest to that siren grenade.

Enterprise tried to do first aid to her but from the looks of it he won't be able to do this greatly due to his body being weak and the powerful win . Enterprise needed to get Artic to help her since he really can't do much. The only thing he can do is find a place where something would block the wind. After a few minutes of looking around he saw a rock ledge just nearby the riverbed too and decided to put her under it. The rock ledge was able to protect her from the winds and the raindrops which should give him enough to get help he decided to plant a beacon near Kaga so he can get help from Artic due to her having more equipment and knowledge in repairing ships and he also doesn't want to risk trying to help her because it might make the situation Much more worse.

Enterprise waited several minutes to see if Kaga would wake up but unfortunately she didn't so he decided to look for other members of his team inside the rainforest with powerful winds and rain which would be a huge challenge. After few minutes of walking around the rainforest he barely spotted vanguard in the bushes due to the fog and rain but the emergency light beside him made detecting him easier.

He quickly got to his position and checked the injuries which luckily where none. He decided to try wake him up gently like what he did to Kaga which didn't work. After a few seconds vanguard got his consciousness back.
