You are the former United States Navy warship USS HOEL, now returned as a shipgirl and ready to kick Abyssal ass!

"What exactly are you planning...?" You frown immediately wary of Sam's intentions. Looks like she was still a bit... touchy about Kongou.

"It better not be anything i-illegal..." Anna groans.

"Oh no, it's totally above board!" Sam claims with that smile of hers that was totally a tell that she was lying.

"Uh huh." You nod, making it clear you're not quite convinced. "Details."

"Oh, I was just going through some paperwork, and it turns out that the Royal Navy wants to set up a sort of exchange program with the JMSDF." Sam chuckles darkly. "So one lucky Jap ship on this base gets a free, all expenses paid vacation to good ol' sunny Britain!"

"And this is going to get back at Kongou... how?" You frown.

"Well, first of all, it gets her outta my hair." Sam rolls her eyes. "You cannot IMAGINE the property damage she causes. And second, she's gonna have a totally FUN time in her homeland!"

"Fun?" Anna frowns.

"Oh! I wanna see Britain, too!" Paz jumps up and down.

"I was joking, Paz, Britain is a terrible place. Never go there." Sam shakes her head.

"Oh..." Paz then turns to you for validation.

"Hey, the Brits are perfectly upstanding people." You assure Paz. "I mean, you've seen Dorsie, right? She's pretty cool!"

"Eeeeeh, I just don't like the cold." Sam shrugs.

"And their food sucks." You add.

"That, we can both agree on." Sam laughs.

"So don't eat British food.... got it!" Paz smiles at the new lesson she's learned.

"H-hey, wait a minute!" Anna blurts out. "What is it about this transfer that you need us for?!"

"Oh, well, the paperwork part is easy. It's actually getting Kongou on the damn plane that's going to be the hard part." Sam grins. "I can't be assed to worry about that, so it's gonna be your problem, Hoel."

"Gee, thanks." You glower.

"I-I don't think the Admiral would agree to this!" Anna cautions.

"The Admiral is still in Singapore, and it's my job to handle base affairs in his absence, so technically, I have the authority to make it happen!" Sam puffs up with smugness. "Plus, if ya ask me, I don't think the Captain would complain either."

"All right, fine." You groan. "Assuming we agree to this, what do we get out of it?"

"Well, that's simple. A British transfer!" Sam looks at you like you're dumb.

"A new friend?" Paz's eyes light up.

"You could say that." Sam nods. "Uhhhh, no specific details, but I can put down a suggestion for ship class...

"Eh, I dunno, ask for one of their battlecruisers or something. They're famous, right?" You shrug.

"Yeah, famous for getting blown up." Sam rolls her eyes. "All right, I'll write it down. The plane leaves in two hours, so you better make sure you plant Kongou's ass in it before it does."

"Hey, language." You grunt, motioning to Paz.

"Ah, we're all sailing ships." Sam says nonchalantly. "Anyways, Kongou. Plane. Two hours."

Suddenly, the phone rings, and Sam takes a quick look at the caller ID and squints.

"Damn, I gotta take this. Just go get it done, OR ELSE!"

And with that, Sam shoos you, Anna, and Paz out of the office, slamming the door behind you. Must be an important call.

"So, um..." Anna frowns. "How are we going to get Kongou on the plane?"

"Okay, so, from what I remember, Kongou ain't too bright, so I think we could trick her onto that plane..." You stop to think. "I mean, I think all we'd have to do is tell her that the Cap is on the plane and she'd come running!"

"B-but what's going to stop her from getting off when she realizes he's not in there?" Anna asks.

"Well, we'd have to get the timing down right..." You frown.

"Why don't you make a fake Captain?" Paz asks cheerfully. "Like a decoy?"

"That's a pretty damn good idea! Nice, Paz!" You grin as you ruffle her hair. She giggles as you do so. "Well, we're going to need special materials for that, though. An officer's uniform, for one."

"S-so who's going to do what?" Anna's antenna twitches in anxiousness.

"All right, Anna, Paz, you two build a Captain decoy! You should have plenty of time to scrape something together!" You say.

"R-right!" Anna salutes.

"Yay! I love arts and crafts!" Paz giggles as she takes Anna by the hand and starts dragging her along. "Maybe we should get the other destroyers to help...!"

As the two shipgirls head off, you take a deep, DEEP breath. Your part was to, you know, actually meet and talk to Kongou. In person.

This was going to suck.

Maybe you should grab a reliable squadronmate...?

You suppose you can handle this yourself. After all, how bad could Kongou possibly be? Sam always did tend to exaggerate a lot of stuff.

So you head over to the little garden where Kongou and her sisters tended to have their little tea parties in. For privacy reasons, the garden was fenced off from the rest of the base, and could only be accessed by a large, wooden gate. You walk up to it and give the gate a hearty knock and wait for a response.

The wait is not long.

Fortunately, your radar queues you to an incoming threat. A FAST incoming threat directly ahead! You quickly snap to attention as you dive to the side the moment the wooden gate EXPLODES into countless splinters and shards. Through the cloud of destroyed wood and debris, you catch sight of Kongou diving through the air with a speed of a goddamn missile, a stupidly happy look on her face.

You're actually expecting her to keep rocketing forward till her face slams into a wall, but she lands and rolls before coming to a complete stop back on her feet with the grace and precision an Olympic gymnast.

"Hoel!" She chirps. "I'm glad you decided to join us, desssss!"

And then you see her arms open up. Oh god you know what's coming...

You brace for impact as Kongou sweeps you up in a bone crushing hug as she nuzzles her head against yours.

"Come on, come on!" Kongou practically carries you into the garden, where you see an admittedly cozy looking tea table set up. Seated there were Kongou's sisters, Hiei, Kirishima, and Haruna. From what you vaguely remember, they were all kind of quirky in their own way, but were still far more stable than Kongou, at the very least.

"Oh hey, brought a new guest?" Hiei grins. "Welcome!"

"This is rather unusual." Kirishima mutters as she adjusts her glasses, briefly remind you of Portland.

"I'm sure it'll be fine!" Haruna says happily.

Kongou then plops you down at one of the empty chairs and then gasps.

"Oh no! I forgot to restock the tea! I'll be right back, dess!"

And she takes off like a fucking rocket. How the hell does a ship as large as her move so damn fast!?

However, you now find yourself along with Kongou's sisters, all of them staring at you intently.

"So uh..." You look around a little awkwardly. "You do these sort of things often?"

"It's a routine ritual for us, yes." Kirishima nods as she sips at her tea.

"It's a nice distraction between all the battles and patrols!" Haruna smiles brightly. "And now we have actual tea!"

"Huh?" You raise an eyebrow.

"Well." Kirishima coughs, apparently embarrassed at having to mention this. "During the time our supply lines were cut, tea was rationed heavily. It was a critical war supply, so no new shipments were coming in."

"Oh, come on, it was fun pretending the hot water we were drinking was our favorite tea!" Hiei giggles.

"I suppose..." Haruna gives a slightly forced smile.

"Anyways, like Haruna said, we've got actual tea now, so now worries!" Hiei grins and holds up to plate of black tablets. "Go on, have a try!"

"Um, what are these?" You frown as you eye the small black squares, which looked to be a combination of charcoal and dirt pressed together.

"Crumpets, of course!" Hiei explains like it's the most obvious thing in the world. "Go on, try one! I made them myself!"

Your gaze falls on Kirishima and Haruna, who suddenly aren't making eye contact with you.

"Um, okay." You say reluctantly as you pick up one of the "crumpets." Jesus christ, it even felt slimy and gross to the touch!

"Well, go on!" Hiei smile shines, completely enthusiastic and happy that someone is trying out her "cooking."

You were so gonna get Sam back for this. You close your eyes as you slowly and carefully place the perverted abomination of a crumpet into your mouth...

Almost immediately, you regret your decision on putting that shit anywhere near your mouth. The taste of whatever fuck Hiei made is so rancid, so... WRONG, that every instinct in your body is telling you to spit that shit out.

But... but... you can't just do it right in front of Hiei. You can't risk alienating Kongou before the task is complete! So you resort to "dropping" your phone, giving you the excuse to bend down underneath the table and quickly spit out the mouthful of muck onto the grass. You swear that you can actually see the grass wilting and dying from the mere contact with the "crumpet."

You're not sure what was scarier, Hiei actually trying to poison you, or her just being THAT BAD at cooking...

"There, there, it's all right..." Haruna kneel down and pats you on the back, helpfully handing you a napkin as well. "That's a perfectly normal reaction."

"Thanks." You grumble as you wipe you mouth and stand back up.

"So, how was it?" Hiei asks, her eyes gleaming.

Again, Kirishima and Haruna actively avoid eye contact with you.

We just need a way to deploy it. Abyssals aren't covered by Geneva Convention so using chemical attacks like these crumpets on them is A-OK

Marmite isn't usually used as the only ingredient in crumpets, there are some folks who do use it as a spread, but not like this.

"It uhhh..." You cough awkwardly. "I think it needs a bit more work. Maybe mess around with the ingredients a bit?"

"Hmmmm, I suppose. I did kinda just whip these together out of whatever I found lying around!" Hiei says happily.

That... that would explain a lot of things, actually.

"Heeeeeeey everybody!" Kongou's familiar loud voice rings in your ears. "You won't guess who I found, dess!"

You turn to see Kongou dragging Dorsie into the garden. Dorsie had that dead, blank look that she'd rather be anywhere else. Anywhere at all.

"Oh, Dorsetshire!" Haruna waves. "How are you doing?"

"I am well, thank you." Dorsie says with a very careful, measured tone, so as not to betray her extreme desire to leave.

"Come on, Dorsie, don't you love tea parties? It's the British thing to do, right?"

Dorsie's eyebrow twitches ever so slightly.

"And look! I restocked all of our tea! I hope you like black tea!"

Dorsie's eyebrow twitches again.

You have never seen a British ship get genuinely angry, and you're not quite sure you actually want to see that happen.

Mention a place where Kongou could get more tea, scones and biscuits, and that place is England. Also mention that Captain Takeuchi was on board the plane heading there and he might need company.

You suppose you should help Dorsie out and get Kongou out of her face. Besides, enough time had passed that you should really start getting your plan into motion. You check your phone again and note that the plane was going to leave in thirty minutes. It was now or never.

"Hey, Kongou!" You grin as you walk forward. "Did ya know the Captain is back on the base?"

"HE IS?!" Kongou's eyes sparkle and shine and Dorsie is almost completely forgotten. You give her a slight nod and she returns it as she quietly slips out of the garden. "WHERE?!"

"Hey, I'll show you!" You grin as you motion for her to follow you. You glance back at Kongou's sisters, who look at each other with a bit of concern.

"You realize that the Captain is guarded by North Carolina, correct?" Kirishima's eyes narrow. "I doubt you'd be able to get through her defenses."

"Nonsense! Nothing can defeat my BUUUUUURNING RAAABUUUUUU!" Kongou boasts, her body seemingly catching on fire from pure enthusiasm alone. "SHOW ME THE WAY, HOEL!"

"You go on ahead, Kongu, I just need to ask Hoel a question or two." Kirishima gets up from her seat.

"Okay!" Kongou then rushes off, still creaming "KAPUUUTAAAAAN!"

"I find it rather odd that you'd be wiling to help Kongou with her... affections for the Captain." Kirishima adjusts her glasses. "It almost makes me think you have ulterior motives."

"Oh don't worry, it's all part of a bigger plan." You chuckle.

"You don't intend in putting Kongou into any sort of harm, do you?" Kirishima asks suspiciously.

"Or the Captain?!" Hiei butts in.

"Of course not!" You shake your head. "What I'm doing, is for both of their bests interests!"

Well, that wasn't exactly the truth, but it was A truth. Sorta kinda. Maybe half a truth at worst.

"Hmmmm..." Kirishima stares at you, still not quite convinced. "Considering you deeds, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. You can go on ahead, but if anything happens to our dear sister..."

"Yeah yeah, I get it." You wave her off. "Don't worry, I totally got this!"

You leave the garden and catch up to Kongou, who is apparently searching every nook and cranny of the surrounding area, as if she was expecting to catch the Captain spying on her or something.

"Hey, Kongou! He's at the airstrip!" You call out to her. "Follow me!"

"Okaaaaay!" Kongou chimes as she follows your lead.

Sure enough, just like Sam told you, there's a C-130 idling on the runway, preparing for the long flight to Europe. You can already see the ground crew sealing up panels and hatches and inspecting the surrounding tarmac. A sure sign that takeoff would be happening soon. You see Anna and Paz slipping out of the rear loading ramp, apparently having gotten their task complete in the nick of time.

"There, that's his plane! I just landed, so he's probably still in it!" You tell the Japanese battleship.

"KAAAPUUUTAAAAAAN!" Kongou dashes forward, blitzing past the ground crew and diving right into the rear loading ramp.

It seems that the crew was in the know, as the moment Kongou leap in, they immediately close the loading ramp and the engines roar to life. You watch as the C-130 pulls onto the runway and starts picking speed. It goes, and goes, and goes...

And it's gone, off on a nonstop trip to England.

And you're left standing there, a bit surprised at how easy that turned out to be.

"Did I just see Kongou going AWOL?" North Carolina steps out from around a corner, nearly catching you by surprise.

>Oh yeah, totally AWOL. She's gone roooogue.
>I just did ya a HUUUUGE favor.
>Nah, just Kongou being Kongou.

"Heh, I just did ya a HUUUUUUGE favor." You chuckle. "I just helped send Kongou off on an all expenses paid trip to England."

"And how is this a favor to me?" North Carolina narrows her eyes at you.

"Oh, you know, she won't be chasing the Cap around anymore and generally being a pain in the ass to you..." You shrug.

"Are... are you trying to bribe me into silence by implying I'd appreciate you for removing a shipgirl from the base because of her perceived attraction to my commanding officer?" North Carolina continues.

"I dunno, am I?" You shrug again.

"And I'm to believe you engineered all this on your own...?" North Carolina continues to probe for more information.

"Yep, it was all me!" You cackle. No need to implicate Anna, Sam or Paz in this.

North Carolina looks at you, and then at the departing airplane, and then back at you again.

"I'm just going to pretend that I didn't see any of this." She sighs as she starts to walk off.

Well, that was one bullet dodged.

"Hoel! We did it!" Anna cheers as she dashes up to you the moment North Carolina leaves. "I can't believe it worked!"

"I told you it would fool Kongou!" Paz says proudly. "I made sure to get every detail right!"

"Well, I wasn't able to get a look inside to see it for myself, but I'll take your word for it." You grin as you pat Paz on the head.

Well, you couldn't say that today didn't turn out to be a rather interesting day. You take a big sigh of relief, glad that you had finally gotten Sam's little favor out of the way when suddenly, you catch sight of the Admiral walking along the runway at a brisk pace. Holy shit, so he actually was on the base!

Then again, you wondered what he could possibly be doing here, considering all of the rebuilding and mop up efforts that still needed to be done. What could so important that he'd come back here?

And that's when you spot a very familiary looking blue and white plane coming in for a landing...

>And that's it for tonight As always, next thread is next week. And don't forget about TITANFALL on Saturday!

Well. I think it's probably a VERY GOOD THING that Kongou isn't present, given who just arrived...
