*Forest in the Kingdom of Askr

*Evan/My POV

At the Main Hall of the Order of Heroes Castle, Alfonse and Sharena met up with me, Enterprise and Illustrious.

"So Evan. What's your answer?" Alfonse asked me about my decision to become the Commander in Chief of the Askran Navy.

"Sorry Alfonse but I decline." I replied. This shocked both Alfonse and Sharena.

"Boo. You suck Evan." Sharena jeered at me.

"Evan. All these years I trusted you and yet you turned down an offer of mine to become the head of the Askran Navy." Alfonse looked down and said.

"Sorry Alfonse. I have my reasons." I tried to explain but Alfonse stopped me.

"Enough! I knew I shouldn't have trusted you from the start." Alfonse shouted at me.

"Alfonse. Let me explain." I persuaded but Alfonse didn't listen.

"You can explain once you and your girls are in jail. Guards! Get them!" Alfonse ordered.

"Prince Alfonse. Evan really has his reasons!" Enterprise tried to defend him.

"Yes! Please listen to him just this once!" Illustrious joined in.

"I won't! You and your girls are no longer welcome here in Askr." Alfonse said to me as guards surrounded both of us.

"It's no use you two. We have to fight our way out of here." I said as I pulled out my wand while Enterprise and Illustrious summoned their riggings. The three of us managed to kill all of the guards.

"Killing my guards this time? So be it. From now on, our alliance is finished. You and your girls are now enemies of Askr, Evan." Alfonse declared once the three of us finished off the guards.

"It's no use Evan-Sama. We have to run!" Illustrious insisted.

"I'll go alert the others! You two run away first!" Enterprise said as she left us.

"Be careful Enterprise!" I wished her good luck as she left.

"Guards! Some of you go after her. The rest, surround these two traitors." Alfonse ordered and once again, me and Illustrious were surrounded again.

"Together?" I asked.

"Yes Evan-Sama!" Illustrious replied and the two of us once again managed to kill all of the guards. This only managed to make the Askran Royals angrier

"Sharena. Inform Commander Anna and the Heroes that Evan has summoned that Evan and his girls have betrayed us and are now enemies of the Kingdom of Askr." Alfonse instructed his sister and she left.

"Will you please listen to what I have to say." I asked one more time even though I knew that Alfonse most likely won't let me by now. Sure enough, he refused.

"No. You and your girls have killed Askrans. Now all of you will pay the price." Alfonse refused.

"Very well then. Since you won't listen to me, the Azur Emblem Pact is finished. My shipgirls and I will leave Askr and never come back." I declared in return. Just then, Enterprise came to us with Mir and the rest of my shipgirls.

"Smokescreen!" Icarus threw a smokescreen and the whole hall is covered in smoke. Alfonse coughed as he struggled to breath in the smoke.

"Everyone let's get out of here!" I ordered Mir and my shipgirls.

"Yes Commander/Evan!" My shipgirls acknowleged and together, all of us fled from the Castle. As we were fleeing the Main Hall, I could hear Alfonse still coughing inside the smokescreen.

"Stop right there! All of you! That's it! The Kingdom of Askr hereby declares war on Azur Lane!" Alfonse declared as he continued coughing inside the smokescreen.

"Ahh!" I woke up to find myself still inside the forest with Enterprise and Illustrious sleeping beside me. "It was just a nightmare. Nothing to be afraid of." I said to myself as I tried to calm myself down. I laid down on the grass again and looked up at the night sky. Before I know it, I dosed off again.
