Chapter-04: First Sortie
American Dorms 0730
Sodak: *Yawn* Huaah that was a great sleep i haven't experienced of those for a long while so how do you guys do on your morning routine?
Sodak asked her two recently awakened roommates as they were moving towards the dorms washrooms
Maryland: Uhm basically we just wake up and go to the washroom first to start the day *Stretch*
West Virginia: Yeah after were done with the washrooms and wear our usual clothes we go to the mess hall for some breakfast after that if we have to sortie we'll get going or if not we just go to the training grounds so that Arkansas gives us something to do or we could hang out anywhere in the base to be honest.
Maryland: Speaking of which Buckin Bronco is suppose to arrive tomorrow right weevee?
West Virginia: Yeah Colorado is set to arrive tomorrow oooh this will be a good surprise for her since she's not expecting you to be on base *Glances at Sodak*
Sodak: Yeah you got that right, you know guys i'm kinda getting exited on being deployed, now that i'm with you guys.
Maryland: Yeah same here with me its been a couple weeks since our last deployment oh how we crush those stupid abyssals are just fun hahahaha!
West Virginia: Hah your antics never get old big sis she said with a smirk of amusement.
As the group made their way to the dorms washrooms to start their day they were met with the sight of battleship division one.
Maryland: Hey Tenn! Hey Cali! Mary shouted
West Virginia just waved at the sight of the other battleship division and their other division mates.
Sodak: Hey guys how's everyone doing you guys ready for today!?
Arizona: Yep me and Pennsy just finished were just chatting up with Tenn and Cali here.
Pennsylvania: Okie and Nevada are still inside the washrooms along with the others.
California: So Flagship when is buckin bronco gonna arrive?
West Virginia: She's supposed to arrive tomorrow so we'll just wait for her and her escorts to get here.
Soon the girls are making their way to the mess hall to have breakfast and as soon enough the girls were eating breakfast by 0930 the Japanese ship girls all but left, already finished their breakfast while the Americans still eat away finishing at 1030 hours completely and one thing to note of ship girls is that their incredible appetites the biggest ones known around where of Yamato and Akagi but nothing beats the Americans when it comes to their Godlike appetite for food especially the battleships.
Soon the standards are making their way to the battleship training range suddenly the base's PA system came to life with an announcement.
PA system: This is Admiral Roberts USN Battleship division one and two and Cruiser Division 10 as well as Desron 21 and Carrier division 3 please report to fleet ready room immediately for emergency sortie that is all.
==============================================================================================================================================
Fleet ready room
West Virginia: So admiral any idea why two battleship divisions and a cruiser division and a Carrier division and a Desron is here?
Arizona: Is there something wrong admiral why is there suddenly a emergency sortie?
Sodak: I'm sure the admiral has a reason for calling all of us here, what could we all do for you admiral?
Adm Roberts: OK at exactly 1045 hours this morning we received an emergency distress call from Colorado's flotilla, apparently they left Hawaii a little early than expected they're suppose to arrive this afternoon but they ran into a abyssal fleet is being led by a battleship princess along with other battleships and a handful cruisers and destroyers and from reports at least four Wo class carriers.
West Virginia: So your saying to us is that we're gonna and rescue their asses isn't it?
Maryland: Weevee Language! Mary Scolds
Arizona: Fine by me when are we gonna deploy Admiral?
Adm Roberts: Your all gonna deploy immediately now get going I've attached cruiser division ten and carrier division 3 and Desron 21 for support now go ahead ladies!
===================================================================================================
Tokyo Bay
Sodak: Alright so Flagship who do we got here?
West Virginia: Alright we got Tenn, Cali, You, and Mary and me from our division over there is Ari, Pennsy, Okie, and Nevada our carriers in the middle are CV-32 Leyte and CV-47 Philippine Sea and CV-17 Bunker Hill of the Essex class fleet carriers that just arrived last night they are from fast carrier task forces from the west coast that got transferred here to Yokosuka and Cruiser division ten Baltimore, Boston, Canberra, and Quincy and finally our gaggle of destroyers Desron 21 Fletcher, Radford, Nicholas, O'Bannon, and Taylor.
Maryland: I'll say we got some heavy firepower for a response fleet i mean nine battleships three fast fleet carriers and four heavy cruisers and a good amount of destroyers ooooh i can't wait to beat more abyssals with my 16 inch guns she said with a grin on her face.
West Virginia: And there goes the battle antics of my sister hahahahahaha she mused.
As the others laughed as well an hour or so later as they near the battle area West Virginia started to bark orders to her fellow ship girls.
West Virginia: Alright here's the plan me and the battleships are gonna punch through their lines to meet up with Colorado's fleet, the cruisers will split up Canberra and Quincy your task is to guard our flattops and AA defense for them, Baltimore and Boston with us your task is to wrangle their cruisers and destroyers if you may and for Desron 21 your job is to Harass the abyssals and to do torpedo attack runs on the battleships and cruisers and assist the cruisers in engaging the destroyers alright ladies lets get going!
With that everyone charged in and started to pressure the abyssals to open up a gap for them to exploit and take advantage as the carriers fire off with their M1 Garand's launching their air groups of F6F Hellcats for CAP, SB2C Hell divers dive bombers and TBF Avengers torpedo bombers for Attack runs and the battleships head onto battle while the two cruisers carry out their assigned task and same goes to the destroyers as they began launching their torpedo spreads against abyssal battleships and cruisers once they've expended their torpedo's the destroyers then turned their attention to the abyssal destroyers for a good rough house.
As the response force plow through the abyssal lines they've split off with Arizona and Pennsylvania engaging 4 Ru class, while Nevada and Oklahoma engages 3 Ta class and the Tennessee sisters engaging 2 Re class while Maryland and West Virginia are engaging other classes and trying to breakthrough the line to reach Colorado's main group of two Battleships and four Cruisers and 6 Destroyers that came from Pearl this left Sodak to square off with the Battleship Princess alone.
She prepares herself for battle as she began to close her distance to the princess she then started to bark orders to her Main guns
Sodak: Turrets 1 and 2 load 16 inch AP! Turrets 3 and 4 Load HE!
Sodak: Turrets 1 and 2 Fire! *Bang* goes the 6 16 inch guns
Sodak: Turrets 3 and 4 Fire! *Bang* goes her remaining 16 inch guns
Sodak: All main battery guns open fire!
As soon she gave the order her main battery starts duking it out to with the princess at first it was going well with the princess taking multiple damage but Sodak is not unscathed now that two Ru class has joined the princess One against Three Sodak focuses turrets 1 and 2 on each Ru class while 3 and 4 focuses down the princess.
Sodak manages to take out one of the Ru classes but two more showed up in support of their princess with her taking on heavy damage the situation has become desperate with turret 1 being knocked out of action while turret 2 is completely destroyed with 3 and 4 getting jammed due to multiple hits Sodak was left with her few 5 inch secondary guns she was already loosing hope that she'll get out of this alive with her division mates and the others busy with their own engagements she prepares herself to fight to the bitter end and fight to the last shell.
she then hears two familiar tunes that she'd heard over her time in the void that her sisters and her friends used to listen to and couldn't help but let out a laugh and a grin.

A/N: If your reading from a PC or a Laptop do try playing both of the songs at the same time its extraordinary to listen to the songs play at unison.
???1: Hey don't you dare touch my sister!
???2: Who told you freaks to lay a hand on my older sister huh!?
???3: Bloody hell South you look awful.
???4: Good god Sodak you look worst for wear.
???5: In the end we just made it in time, alright ladies lets get this done with, i want this finished before tea time!
???5: OPEN FIRE!
???4: INDEPENDENT FIRE AT WILL!
???3: CHARGE!
As soon the unknown relief force of ship girls arrived they had saved Sodak at the nick of time and Successfully sank the battleship princess and routed the abyssals clearing the area with princess sunk the other abyssals beat a hasty retreat to get out of the fray of pissed off ship girls and at least live and fight another day.
Sodak: You guys! you all came for me she began as tears comes from her eyes.
???1: Of course we are, me Monty here just couldn't take it anymore that our sister is being hurt and besides that's what family is for
???2: Sis! Sis! you alright!?
Sodak: Yeah i'm fine although i am heavily damaged.
???3: Don't worry luv once we get to port we can have you repaired in no time!
???4: Hey don't worry Sodak your gonna live have a little faith in us.
???5: Alright ladies thats all of them i suggest we rendezvous with the others now!
the other unknown ship girls nodded in agreement with their Flagship and started to re group with the others soon they've finally reached the other group to the surprise of the other American ship girls to see five newly arrived and unknown group of ship girls and to add to that its a mix match of ship girls from different nations West Virginia in tow of her two sisters was first to break the tense silence as they sail back to Yokosuka we the unknown relief force.
West Virginia: So who are you guys?
Colorado: Can you guys tell us who you are?
Maryland: Hey is Sodak alright?
???1: First we are Sodak's old battleship division from the void.
???2: Don't worry about Big sister Dakota she'll live through this she is strong.
???5: We'll talk about who we are later once we arrived at the base since we gotta be vigilant while were still out here in the open.
The other ship girls both the new group and the Americans nodded in agreement as since they can't yet let their guard down since they are still technically in hostile waters so they keep being on the look out for any surface or aerial threats with the carriers doing CAP every now and then while taking turns the Destroyers being the outer ring of defense while the cruisers the second ring and the battleships the last ring of defense before the three fleet carriers and the injured ship girls.
Soon they Arrived at Yokosuka with the other on base ship girls waiting for their return both the Americans and Japanese are and as well as the Admiralty present on base the likes of Adm Roberts with Langley and Adm Kobayashi with Nagato waiting for the safe return and arrival of both Colorado's and West Virginia's response fleet but they weren't expecting five new ship girls to arrive as well in tow of the two battered fleets.
As the girls finally exited the launching chambers Maryland and the other standards took Sodak and the other injured ship girls to the repair docks while the new five ship girls are taken to the courtyard for inspection and introduction to the two admirals to know who's who and to assign them dorms and accommodations on base and to help them settle down for the day.
