(This will probably be a short chapter)

Its a cold, stormy, and sad. Everyone is at an unknown location aboard Oklahoma's ship. Oklahoma & Hood are in wheelchairs, everyone else is standing. Surrounding Y/N, who is holding Purifier's head.

Purifier: *crying* Please, dont do this!

Y/N:...*puts a bag over her head, with a cut out mouth hole*

Purifier: *crying* Im sorry! I wont bother yall again! Please, spare me! I told yall everything I know! Please dont do it!

Y/N:...Z23.

Z23: Yes?

Y/N: Take the kids away.

Z23: I understand. Come on guys, lets go play.

Laffey: I wanna stay with Y/N.

Y/N: *serious* Laffy, thats an order.

Laffey looks down as she and the kids are taken inside.

Enterprise: Its time.

Purifier: Please, I beg you!

Y/N: *ties, tightly, a rope around her head, which is attached to an anchor*

Purifier: Please! Im sorry!!

Y/N:...

Oklahoma: Y/N.

Y/N then throws Purifier into the water.

Purifier: Noo!!

Then she sank underwater.

Y/N:......

Suddenly, an explosion happens on Bismarck's ship.

Y/N: What the!?

Oklahoma: Y/N, look out!

Y/N: Huh?

Y/N looks bad and a torpedo is heading right for him.

Y/N: Oklahoma!

He tries to run to her, but is killed by the explosion. Then it all dark.

???: Y/N.

???:Y/N.

???: Y/N!

Suddenly, Y/N wakes up breathing heavily. Oklahoma was laying down next to him.

Oklahoma: You ok?

Y/N: Im fine. Wait, wheres Purifier?

Oklahoma: Shes right there. *points*

Oklahoma pointed to Purifier, who was sleeping on a pillow, which is on a chair.

Y/N: Oh.

Oklahoma: Whats wrong?

Y/N explained the dream he had.

Oklahoma: I see. You dont plan on doing that to her do you?

Y/N:...If the majority of the vote is to send her off, then I have to. Its the only way to prevent her from being captured by the Sirens. If they wanna search for her, they'll be looking for a lomg time.

Oklahoma: I see. Im still with keeping her, and sparing her.

Y/N: Ok. Lets get some sleep.

Oklahoma: Sure.

The two lay down, and soon both fall asleep.

In the morning.

???: Hello!

???: Hello!!

Y/N: Mmm. What?

Purifier: I think its time to wake up. Its 8:38 a.m. According to this clock here.

Y/N: I see. *yawns* Hey Oklahoma, wake u-

Y/N was about to wake up Oklahoma, when see looked at him, but she didnt have a face.

Y/N: What the fu- Ahh!! *falls off his bed* oww.

Oklahoma: *takes off the mask* Pff Hahahaha.

Purifier: Hahahaha.

Y/N: What was that!?

Oklahoma: Hehe, its a mask.

Purifier: Hehe, did you see his face? Hahaha-ahhhh! *she fell off the chair* ow.

Y/N: You guys are crazy.

After Y/N helped Oklahoma into her wheelchair, he picked up Purifier and handed her to Oklahoma.

Y/N: *serious* The decision is today. We are meeting in the cafeteria to decide.

Purifier: *looks down* I see.

Oklahoma:....We should go.

Y/N: *nods*

Y/N pushes Oklahoma to the cafeteria, there he finds everyone waiting.

Y/N: Bismarck, is everything ready? Shells to?

Bismarck: Yes.

Y/N: Ok.

Y/N got infront of everyone.

Y/N: Ok, so in order to decide what to do with Purifier, you guys will vote. There are two choices, 1) Spare 2) Very harsh ending. Kids go first.

The destroyers, and one carrier, received a paper and signed their one, and gave it to Y/N.

Y/N: Thanks, next are cruisers.

Then the cruisers did the same. And then the rest gone an voted.

Y/N: Everyone vote?

Everyone: *nods*

Y/N: Good. We will meet at the fountain at 8:55 a.m. for something inportant. I will be in my office counting the votes. I will have the awnser at 9:10. Nevada can I have my breakfast?

Nevada: Yes, here you go. *hands Y/N his breakfast*

Y/N: Thanks. *takes it* Oklahoma you stay here with them. Everyone stay here and eat. I will be back. Oh, and no harm will be done to Purifier during this time. *leaves*

Y/N heads back and counts the votes. And he prints some pictures as well.

8:55 a.m. Everyone is gathered at the fountain, in between      Y/N's office and the docks.

Y/N: Good everyone is here. I have the results.

Y/N pulls out a piece of paper.

Y/N: The majority of the vote is...

Purifier closes her eyes.

Y/N:...Spare.

Purifier breathed heavily, and some smiled.

Y/N: Purifier, you will spend your time here until the war is over.

Purifier: But I cant do anything. Im just a head.

Y/N: You will remain a head for two weeks. Then well get your body back. For now you will give ever information about the Sirens.

Purifier: Ok.

Y/N: Good. Now everyone, follow me to the hill.

Everyone nods. Ans heads to the top of the hill, Oklahoma was carried up by Y/N.And Hood, by Bismarck. Once there, it is 8:55 am.

Nevada: What are we doing here?

Y/N: I want you all to look at these photos.

Y/N hands them some pictures. And they passed them around.

Enterprise: What is this?

Y/N:...Its the Oklahoma City Bombing.

Oklahoma: A bombing!?

Y/N: Yes, today is the 25th anniversary of it.

Laffey: What happened?

Y/N: *looks down*....A guy who blamed the United States for the Waco Seige and another, wanted to get back at them. So him and another guy, loaded a truck full of explosives and the guy drove it in front of the building. And walked away and the truck detonated. 600+ people were injured and 168 would lose their lives. Sadly, 19 of which were children. And the ones killed possibled suffered, cause the blast didnt kill everyone. The building collapsed and killed more than the blast. The two photos are after the explosion, and the other two are whats there now.

Some of the girls looked down, others let out a tear.

Oklahoma: Whats the wall for?

Y/N: There are two of them. Each opposite of each other. On has 9:01 and the other, 9:03. It takes that long to walk from one to the other. 9:01 symbolizes the last moment of peace and happiness. And 9:03 marks the aftermath and the moment healing began.

Takao: What about the large pool?

Y/N: The pool is called the Reflecting Pool, it occupys, what was then, N.W. Fifth Street. Its shollow and it has a calm, soothing sound, meant to soothe wounds.

Laffey: And the chairs?

Y/N: There are 168 of them. Their there to remember the 168 lost. 19 are smaller. They have the names of the ones who died and where they were. The ones in front are the ones who were killed on the first floor. And on the back, the ninth floor. They sit where the building once stood.

Y/N then looked at his watch. Its 9:00.

Y/N: When it hits 9:01, I want us to have a moment of silence until 9:03. Bismarck get ready to fire.

Bismarck raises her hand, to signal to her ship. Which is ready to fire.

Y/N: 5..4..3..2..1. Now.

As soon as the time hit 9:01 Bismarck lowerd her hand, and her ship fired.

Y/N:...

Oklahoma:...

Nevada:...

Roon:...

Starter Squad:...

Everyone was quiet. To remember those who were killed by this attack. (If its 9:01 am or pm please hold a moment of silence. Thank you. Or put F here)

After 3 minutes.

Y/N: Thank you. I had the chance to visit the memorial. (Irl I did) It was an amazing place, they had part of the building left where you could look through, Timothy McVeight's car there in the museum. He was pulled over a little while after the explosion, and taken into custody. He was sentenced to death via lethal injection. Oklahoma, when we head to the state. I will take you there, if you want.

Oklahoma: I will think about it.

Y/N: Ok. Bismarck, I want you, Enterprise, Ranger, Takao, Agato, Eugen, Roon, Z23, and Ayanami to head to Guam and retrieve Purifier's body.

Bismarck: Understood. Lets head out guys.

Y/N: Everyone dismissed.

Everyone walked back down the hill. And soon, they came back with Purifier's body. And that night, everyone held up a candle. To remember the bombing one last time. Heres an iconic photo from that day.
