"We're here."
You look up from your phone, just in time to watch your big sister pull off the motorway into Pourtsmouth. You quickly tuck your phone away and sit forward, anticipating the moment you can see the ship you'll be living on for the next nine months.
"Thanks again for driving me, by the way."
Your sister just smiles, "Well, it's not like mum or dad were gonna do it. Besides, I like spending time with my lil' sis!" She reaches over and ruffles your hair despite your protests.

It takes twenty more minutes driving through traffic to get to the docks, and another ten to find a parking space. Eventually, you and your sister climb out, and she helps you take your suitcase, duffel, and shoulder bag out of the boot.
"So, Alf. looking forward to getting away from me?" She asks with a smile, helping you load up your bags. You're already regretting bringing so much stuff.

You are Alfreda 'Alfie' Nicholls, Year 10 student aboard Cromwell State College Ship and newly-minted officer of its Tankery team.

"Pfft, of course I am. Why do you think I was away camping for the last couple of weeks?"
You sister just laughs and pulls you into a thight hug ohgodyourribshelp- she lets you go. "You better knock 'em dead, sis." She ruffles your hair again while you huff and helps carry your stuff over to the Cromwell's passenger boarding ramps. All around there are boys and girls of various ages saying goodbye to families before heading up the ramp.
"Bye Alf!"
"Bye Sam! Take care of yourself!"
"You too!"
You happily wave at each other, and you set off aboard.
Thank god for cargo elevators, which you ride with a couple dozen other boarding students, and in no time at all you're standing on the top deck. Your radio operator, Roselyn McTavish, is already waiting for you.
"Rosie?" Sam must have texted her.
"Commander! Thank god you're here." She looks like she hasn't slept and... has she been crying? "The tankery team-"
"Yeah, I was gonna head over as soon as I dropped my stuff off, no worries."
"No, it's not that! We don't have one anymore!"
Wait, what?

CSC... doesn't have a tankery team anymore? B-but that doesn't make any sense! You start breathing faster, trying to comprehend this. You feel a noise start bubbling up in your throat, but thankfully Rosie grabs you before you can embarrass yourself.

"Commander! Are you okay?"
You force yourself to breath slowly and calmly. Rosie's the nicest girl you know, you need to be calm for her.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine. But-"

You look down at your bags. "...After I drop off my stuff. Come on."
The pair of you start walking. Rosie's noticably calmed down now you're here, and between weaving between freshmen trying to find their dorms, older students catching up, or people that live on the Cromwell going about their business, you decide to make conversation.
"So... how did this happen, Rose?"
Oh god, is she going to cry again? "W-well, Alfie, you remember how we lost the world tournament a couple years ago?"
You roll your eyes. "As if I could forget."
"Most of the seniors were making deals to toss the tourny."
Holy shit. "Well, that's not so bad I guess."
"Also..." Why is the girl who you've heard out-curse a sailor blushing? "All of the current senior tankers have been making gay porn using our tanks."

"What the actual fuck?"
"I know! So er... all of our tanks have confiscated while the ITL investigate, and the scandal has meant most of our team left..." Rosie sighs heavily as you reach your dorm.
It only takes a minute to dump everything inside your room before you're heading back out towards the command tower. Suddenly, something your RO just said clicks.
"Wait, they took our tanks?"
She nods.
"Fuck."
Another sad nod.

It only takes ten minutes of walking to reach the command tower. Wait, but you haven't planned this far ahead. Now what?

>You're taking this to the principal damnit.

The Cromwell's command tower is pretty impressive, and the lady in command of the faculty aboard gets the top office. You're sure that getting to see her would sort out your problems. Dodging between staff and students preparing for cast-off, you and Rosie manage to reach the lifts.

A few minutes of awkward elevator music later and you're stepping out onto the second-to-highest floor.
"Can I he- oh, hey Alfie."
You blink in surprise as you recognise the receptionist manning the waiting area. It's Susan 'Suzy' O'Connell, your gunner. "...Suze, why are you being a receptionist?"
The loud-mouthed Irish lass sighs heavily as you step over to her. "The hall bobbies caught me drinking so now I have to do this for community service."
You pinch the bridge of your nose. You go camping for two weeks and everything goes to hell. "Can you let me in to see the Principal?"
"Well, I'm not supposed to let anyone in without an appointment... But if it's you, I'm sure it's fine!" Thank god having friends in high places, you suppose.

Suzy knocks on the principal's office door and waves you in. You're confronted with Mrs Brown: At least in her sixties, greying black hair in a taut bun, and old lady glasses. But she's nice enough in your experience.
"Can I help you two girls?"
You share a glance at Rosie. "Well..."

"Oh, this again? I've already had this conversation twice." The Principal huffs. "The ITL have confiscated all of the team's tanks until they finish their investigation and almost all the team is barred from ever playing tankery again because of that match throwing business. My hands are tied." She shrugs.
Well. That seems the end of that.
"What about the training tanks?" Rosie blurts out. The Principal looks thoughtfull.
"I didn't think of that." She looks thoughtful, her gaze switching back to you. "You're that new officer, aren't you? I know your crew is innocent. If you're serious about continuining the team, I'll do what I can to help support you against the ITL."

You nod as politely as you can manage. "Thank you very much, ma'am."
The principal smiles slightly but it quickly turns to a scowl. "Now scram. You did just walk in without an appointment, young lady." ohshit

Rosie is already fleeing towards the lifts by the time you close the door behind you. Phew, that could have been bad.
"You're getting the team back, Alfie?"
"Suzy, what did we say about eavesdropping?"
Your gunner pouts in reply. You sigh heavily.
"Yes, I'm going to try to keep the team going. I'll see you later, okay?"
Suzy nods, and you enter the lifts with your RO.

A minute later, you're stepping out the lift before a blonde blur cannons into you!

You've been preparing for this moment all summer! The blonde blur gets securely tucked under your arm, and once she strops struggling, it's revealed to be your driver, Melissa.
"Oh, Lissa!" Rosie beams down at her. "When you you get here?"
Melissa pouts up a storm, "Just now, Suzy texted me. Can you let me go, commander?"
"Only if you lay off the sugar," You grin, letting your driver up and giving her a hug.
You check the time, too: 5pm. Hm, maybe you should head over to the tankery HQ now and take a look? Or maybe you should have a look around, see if you can still find any seniors. Or hell, maybe you should try and find the last member of your crew and hang out?

>Hang out with your crew

Hell, you haven't seen your friends in like two months. You should catch up.
"Hey guys, how about we head back to mine for the evening?" You suggest as the three of you stroll back out of the command tower. There's a group of boys nearby that try to check you out, but you ignore them. Ugh, boys.
"That sounds great, commander! I'll head to the shops and pick up some things." Rosie smiles and heads off.
Aw yiss, Rosie's cooking. You and Melissa sigh as you both remember last year. You both head off, and on the way you text the final member of your crew: Amanda Lawrence. all you get is a 'k' in response, which is better than last year at least.

"So, Melissa, how was your summer?" You ask as you walk along.
"Oh, pretty good. I went home for a month, got to drive my dad's cars!" You frown at your driver. You're not tall, and Lissa is even shorter than you. Truth be told, you're not sure how she even reaches the pedals in your tank, let alone a car.
"Well anyway..." You cough awkwardly, but are finally rescued by reaching your dorm and the arrival of Mandy. She nods at you. "It's good to see you too, Mandy." You give her a hug, despite how hard she tries to get away.
Finally, you let yourself in to your spartan dorm, and the girls plop down on your sofa.

You open your suitcase, and root through it until you can pull out your gamecube, four controllers, and your copy of Smash. You're rooting around behind your tv trying to plug everything in when Rosie and Suzy arrive. You hear Rosie scream in alarm, which makes you hit your head against the wall!
Wincing, you retreat with your gamecube plugged in and look round to see Melissa taking one of those one-quid Halloween masks and Mandy giggling silently.
"Lissa..."
"Gotta have your Halloween costume ready early!" She giggles, then whines as Rosie bops her on the head.
"I'll start on dinner." She huffs, stepping into your bare kitchen.

You boot up Smash Bros and hand everyone else a controller. "Get ready to get rekt."

Mandy ends up winning, as always.
