This is went from bad to worse it wasn't even a few minutes after they defeated the boss were they already getting another mission. An unknown amount of sirens is coming to them and it seems to be an unending force until they can get back to base. Himmels had to think quickly or the gap between them and the siren will close in.
As he was thinking he looked back at the planes that were heading towards them as info started to appear. Sadly he couldn't get a picture of who actually launched the planes but he did get the names. Lexington, Bell, Venus, franklin and Holy they must all be CV's. Himmels immediately recognizes them from the server but of course is surprised that lexi is here.
But whatever it doesn't matter right now what matters is that he know they are his side. Then he had an idea which will make his friends somewhat hate him but it has to be done. He started to wave his hands in the air and then pointed at the fleet gesturing to follow. It seems his signal got somewhat through as the planes turned towards the fleet.
Himmels: <<You guys the planes are on our side there apart of our friends don't shoot them down, I repeat don't shoot them down.>> He said through the radio.
The others looked at the planes and their eyes widened somewhat surprised. Himmels knew why helens and skippy were surprised it was because that lexi considering how the gods told them or well him that she was too powerful. Did they make an exception or something? It didn't matter as himmels shook his head and concentrated on the task at hand.
He needed to find a way to escape the sirens and he did but first a shot was heard as a water plumes came up near him. As he looked over to see three destroyer coming at him he took aim with the guns that can aim at them. But before he can fire shells came in from the right side hitting one of the ships.
As he turned to see who shot he can only see the silhouette of a ship sadly he couldn't get any info yet so he has to at least trust the ship for now. Himmels then jumped off of his ship turning it into rigging form and heading for the downed person. As he was getting near two more explosions were heard as blagoj took down the other two.
The mysterious ship disappeared into cubes and swirled to one point seemed as though a shipgirls was near. Himmels made it to the person and found out something surprising. Not only was the person someone he of course knew at the server but the person was very injured. This person was shou Chan skippy's sister of all things.
As he was about to go and picked her up considering she was very injured with her clothes tested up he heard a voice behind him.
???: "Never thought I would see you here himmels." The male voice said as himmels turned around.
Like every time someone new appeared it was someone from the server and he knew this person well.
Himmels: "Origin?" He asked the male person
Origin: "In the flesh." Origin stated while shrugging.
Himmels knew he didn't have time to look at both peoples stats but he could easily see that origin is a battleship while shou Chan is a carrier from their riggings or well what used to be of shou Chan rigging. The rigging that origin had on instantly reminded him of one ship the Iowa class.
Now himmels would have gone and hugged him but right now he has shou Chan to worry about. And with those three destroyers spotting them they had to go quick.
Himmels: "Origin while it is amazing to see you we have to move quick sirens are coming and they won't be stopping." He told his friend.
Origin: "So we are in azur lane Huh but we have to leave I'm pretty sure we can take them on easily I mean you seen what I did to that one." He said pointing out the destroyed siren destroyer.
Himmels: "That was a destroyer and you missed most of your shots so we are not staying plus your still a newbie to this so we are leaving." He said in a tone that only origin knows as he summons his ship.
As soon as himmels ship was brought out origin turned his rigging into his ship right next to him.
Himmels then picked up shou Chan and brought her aboard putting her in his bridge for now then headed for the fleet. Now they could see origin but they didn't see shou Chan yet while shou Chan is seriously hurt the fact she is on his ship is what is keeping her most alive.
In previous mission himmels has learned that if a injured person is on another person ship they won't lose health or won't lose it as quickly. Now of course when origin and himmels met up with the fleet some were of course surprised again. Skippy and Helens were kinda used to it by now.
Skippy: "So origin has joined us and he's a american ship."
Helens: "Another American ship means better AA."
Himmels: "While do have a lot of American ships and with some new carriers coming along I say we have enough 'american firepower'." Himmels said while saying American firepower with distaste.
Blagoj: "What you hate things american?" He asked the wolf boy.
Himmels: "One I'm American technically and two yes I really dislike some American things," He answered then continued, "Anyway we have to go in pretty sure we all saw the mission so let's quickly head to base!"
With that they begun to go in formation after himmels convinced origin to get into it. The formation had somewhat spread out a bit this time. The four benson classes were again on the four corners of the fleet. Himmels, origin and blagoj were in a big triangle formation inside the bensons formation with blagoj being on the right, Origin on the left and himmels front middle. Himmels also had Helens on board on his most rear turret. Downneck and Crim beside blagoj and origin with Crim being on the right of blagoj and downneck to the left of origin. Skippy was of course in the middle of the entire formation and Barri was in the middle of the back bensons.
They had no fog or smokescreen at this point considering how himmels want their new carriers to join up as well. Now at this point only one squadron from lexi's carrier was here which was about 12 F6F-5 Hellcats.
Now luckily skippy's aircraft didn't engage them but they were up as well. It was kinda silent surprisingly is what himmels thought until the sound of many engines can be heard from his wolf ears and there was a lot.
Himmels: "EVERYONE READY AA GUNS!!" He shouted in distress as many aircraft can be seen from the horizon.
About 1,000 siren aircraft can be seen coming in from the starboard side and that wasn't all another couple thousand is coming from the port side. Seemed like the siren weren't taking any chances and wanted the ones who destroyed the shikashima dead or dying.
Himmels: "Skippy launch all of your planes and help Lexi's planes fight the ones on the port side everyone else focus on the planes on the starboard side!" He told everyone in the fleet.
Skippy's planes were quickly launched and headed for the planes on the port side with Lexi's as everyone with long range AA guns started firing on the planes at the starboard side. Now while risking about 130 planes is a bad idea what else can they do the other carriers who will be joining has their planes protecting them.
Just like last time Barri and Downneck's abilities kicked in giving everyone a 40% and 50% bonus in AA while Barri gets a 90% bonus since his ability gives him 50%. Crimson also had a 90% AA bonus cause she's russian but russian AA was never good in WW2. Sadly since one of barri's guns was destroyed he didn't have as much AA capabilities as before. But still as soon as everyone's AA lit up the sky was covered with flak even more then before since now himmels and origin was in the fight.
Origin's, blagoj's and downneck weren't doing so well in the AA department since blagoj and downneck were still starting out while origin was just now firing his AA for the first time. But with the amount of AA being fired the siren planes were getting torn apart just by the heavy AA. Himmels, Helens and skippy's experience with their AA's made it somewhat better the bonus helped a lot as well.
It was when they got close enough for the medium and light AA when most of the planes were getting taken out. With the many bofors, 20mm and Flakvierling firing the siren planes were getting taken down left and right. But some still got through which was about half but even as they begin their runs more was still being taken down. Some dropped torpedoes and some dropped bombs most were dodged mainly the torpedoes. The bombs not so much most of the bombs that actually hit only hit origin, himmels and blagoj. One did hit crimson but nothing major was hit the destroyers didn't get hit at all.
While the bombs did hit they didn't do any meaningful damage most hit the superstructures. Causing small fires that was put out pretty easily. The planes that skippy's and Lexi's planes engaged were also getting taking out quickly. Most of the planes were already taken out by time they got in range of the fleets AA range. The AA just made it much more easier to take them out.
But now there was one problem the sirens knew exactly where they are and probably where they are heading. So himmels has a grand idea he sent out one of his floatplanes to where the carriers are to lead them to the base. So now they don't have to worry about them being lost and let skippy use his ability to cover everyone in a thick fog once more. With all this fog himmels has a grand idea for their fleet name and you can easily guess what the fleet name should be.
Timeskip
It's been about two hours and they still haven't gotten to the base yet they were close but ultimately they still about another 30 mins to go. Himmels still had connection to his floatplane and it hasn't given him any attack warnings so it mean the carriers weren't attacked yet. But the carriers were very close to the main fleet but there was just one problem.
A massive flotilla of siren ships has been sighted by one of skippy's aircraft and they were on a intercept course for the fleet. While the fleet was somewhat big with it having about 20 destroyers, 11 light cruisers, 7 heavy cruisers, 4 battleships and 2 carriers what really made it stand out was the fact it had actual high rank sirens. With them being the most well known out of the sirens Tester beta, purifier and observer alpha.
Yea they were in some deep shit right now especially since blagoj floatplane also spotted another bigger flotilla chasing us from behind. This flotilla had 34 destroyers, 23 light cruisers, 10 battleships, and 8 carriers. So obviously tester, purifier and observer is trying stall us long enough for the other more massive fleet to come in and completely destroy us.
Himmels was trying to think of a plan to escape this situation but things kept on getting worse cause they were now able to at least get in radio contact with the carriers and what they said was terrifying.
Lexi: <<Guys! We are going to be in some serious trouble!>> She shouted through the radio in distress.
Himmels: <<Lexi tell me what is going on what is happening?>> Himmels shouted back through the mic.
Lexi: <<A massive siren force is currently heading to intercept us.>> She quickly answered back.
Skippy: <<Can you tell us what the siren fleet has?>> skippy asked this knowing the question.
Lexi: <<From what Holy told me it seems it could have around 50 destroyers, 37 light cruisers, 26 heavy cruisers, 14 battleships and 20 carriers!>> She told the force of the siren fleet quickly.
This made everyone who was listening go silent what they were facing was unbeatable with the numbers they currently have. In total this would be around 100 destroyers, 70 light cruisers, 33 heavy cruisers, 28 battleships and 30 carriers. The sirens numbers dwarfed theres by a long shot and with high ranks also there it made things 10x harder.
Himmels: <<Ok so who is currently with you is there anyone else with you and the carriers?>> He asked Lexi.
Lexi: <<Um yes we have Mark currently under us.>>
Himmels: <<Hold on say again did you say that he is under you guys?>> He asked somewhat confused.
Lexi: <<Yea Mark is under us he is a submarine apparently.>>
After a minute of silence himmels shook his head and thought of a selfless idea.
Himmels: <<Lexi tell everyone with you to turn 45 degrees to the starboard side we will be able to close the distance between our fleets.>> He told lexi.
Lexi: <<All ships are turning starboard now.>> She responded.
Himmels then got of the radio and over to helens.
Himmels: "Helens I need you to take someone over to skippy's ship." He said to helens who was on the stern of himmels ship.
Helens: "Wait who? I didn't see anyone on your ship." He responded wondering what himmels was talking about.
Himmels: "Follow me." He quickly said to helens and ran to the bridge with Helens following.
Once the both of them got to the bridge Helens could see the person himmels was talking about. No one knew that himmels had shou Chan aboard his ship so its a massive surprise to helens.
Helens: "Wait shou Chan? When did she get here? How did she get hurt so badly?" He quickly started to question.
Himmels: "No time I need you to take her and bring her to skippy's ship ASAP I'm going to try and meet up with the carriers," He quickly stopped Helens questioning and took a breath of air before continuing, "The carriers are practically defenseless and with that massive siren force heading towards them they won't last long so I'm going to help them."
Helens: "Then why not bring someone else like origin or downneck?" He asked himmels.
Himmels: "Because they are still new especially origin and we all know what happens when someone is new cause remember it happened to me," He told helens reminding him the first mission they went on, "besides I need someone to watch over shou Chan skippy will probably be preoccupied with controlling his aircraft so I need someone else and right now you aren't able to turn your rigging into a ship because of your engine."
It took a while but helens finally agreed with himmels plans since he was very much right.
Helens: "Fine then make sure the carriers stay safe," he told himmels then mumbles, "especially Lexi."
Himmels: "Dude it's me I always make sure people stay safe." He responded with a smile.
Helens quickly picked up shou Chan and began to head to the stern of himmels ship.
Himmels: <<He skippy your getting two passengers I'm going to try and meet up with the Lexi and the rest.>> He said over the radio while turning hard to port.
Skippy: <<Um ok but what do you mean by two->> skippy didn't finish his sentence as he sees Helens sailing over to his ship carrying shou Chan. Helens was still able to jump onto skippy's ship and raced to the medical area.
Himmels: <<Yes skippy that's your sister but let's ask questions later I still need you to watch over the siren fleets.>> He quickly said over the radio getting skippy's attention.
With a sigh skippy only looked as Helens enter his ship feeling helens going through the halls to the medical area. Helens maybe a male laffey but he still does care for people so he choose to watch the siren movements while making wondering what else himmels has in store.
Another timeskip
It has only been about an half an hour before skippy started to see some changes in the sirens movement. They started to turn more inwards and by a lot they would be missing the main fleet entirely.
Skippy: <<Hey himmels the siren fleet is moving hard to port.>> He quickly radioed himmels.
A few minutes has passed before he tried to contact himmels again but then one of the destroyers saw a fleet from the port side and he was radioed.
Lexi: <<Skippy I see your fleet we are to your right.>> Lexi said radioing skippy.
Skippy looked to his right and saw the carriers five in fact as well as what looks to be a submarine. Obvious designs states one carrier was Japanese, three were American and the other was what he believed to be British.
Skippy: <<Good to see you guys but question have any of you seen or heard from himmels?>> He asked the carriers.
Lexi: <<Um no why is he not with you guys?>> She asked back.
This time helens responded over the radio.
Helens: <<He said he was going to meet up with you guys.>> He quickly answered over the radio.
Lexi: <<None of us not even our planes have seen him the only thing we know is that the fleet that was going to intercept us changed course and turned hard to starboard.>> She stayed back.
It was a few moments of silence before Marks and origin voices are heard shouting over the radio.
Mark and origin: <<That selfless son of a bitch!!>>
