*third person POV

a few meter's from where Shimakaze and the others girls are, a fight is taking place

Suruga: take this

Suruga exclaimed as she fired her cannons at the approaching siren ships. she was accompanied by two girls

Suruga: Hang in there both of you

She was about to fire another shot when she heard a train whistle and blue lasers shot down from the skies and destroyed the remaining siren ships. Suruga seized this chance to finish off the rest of the siren ships before looking up to see Big One above them

Evan: hope you're alright Suruga

Evan's voice transmitted from from Big One

Suruga: Big One!!

Suruga exclaimed before turning to the two girls

Suruga: that should be the last of them

the two girls nodded, still amazed by Big One as Shimakaze and her group came over

Shimakaze: Suruga! I've come to aid you! Wait! Is it me or is the fight already over?

Formidable: as expected of Suruga, ever at home on the battlefield, although with Big One and the commander involved, this fight is already over before it began. I presume these girls with you are more of Ryza's friends

Ryza: Lila?! Serri?! You two ended up here too?!

Klaudia: it has been so long Miss Lila and Miss Serri

Patricia: Have you two been well?

Lilia: Ryza, Klaudia and even Patricia. What a place to run into you two

Serri: Hey Ryza. it has been awhile are in we in another world or something

Ryza: seems like it. So you've figured it out Serri

Serri: No, I just sense the airflow here is different than it used to be. Guess that means I'm right

Ryza: we just learned about it a little while ago but basically

Ryza then explain everything that she has learned to Lilia and Serri

Lila: Azur Lane, shipgirls, mirror seas, sirens. I've never heard of any of this but think I'm starting to understand the mess we've gotten into now

Serri: if this is indeed another land, Formidable you'd better be careful. Those enemies have the aura of Philuscha on them. The Philuscha may have been brought here alongside us

Formidable: these so called Philuscha. I presume they are lifelong enemies of yours

Serri: I don't know about lifelong but sure, kind of

Formidable: Then the Philuscha you know are not machines, but living beings?

Lila: Yeah. They hate water by nature and come to think of it, those enemies were off

Formidable: Interesting that you should mention that. While everyone is talking, I took the liberty of searching the enemy's remains. Based on my investigations, I believe those are mass produced models made from the siren's knowledge of the Philuscha you know. I base this off of the fact that our nemesis's remains are all mechanical. it seems that the Philuscha of your world are not truly brought here

Serri: Guess not. Well at least that's some good news

Serri then turned to look at Big One

Serri: And what's that?

Formidable: that's Big One, our commander's flying train

Lila: train?

Formidable: vehicles that transport people around cities

Lila: transporting people?

Alfredo: Big One is different as it is a battle train, meaning it has guns. Welp, we've got our moment of peace everyone. it's all dark out and I don't wanna stay in such a messy place. Most of all, you've got to be tired. How about we eat and rest at my mass produce ship. trading scoops is much easier when you've got a fully rested body and a full belly

Shimakaze: I concur with Alfredo, honestly I'm famished

Ryza: oh boy. otherworldly delicious foods! I'm so in! Come on, let's go! I'm hungry for both food and knowledge

Bristol: hehehe. I've been taking notes this whole time. Let solve the mysteries over a big meal

Formidable: there you have it. please lead the way alfredo

Alfredo: Roger that. Come on everyone. to the mass produced ship of Sardegna's own Oriani class destroyer. our Sardegna cuisine is so good, it'll make you forget you're smack dab in the middle of the battlefield. Now get those butts into gear and follow my lead!

Before Alfredo can lead the girls into her own production destroyer, Evan's voice sounded from Big One

Evan: I found a station to land Big One. I'm going off first

Evan said before Big One started moving away

Alfredo: on second thought, let's welcome the commander first, then we'll eat together

Ryza: we're meeting your commander? Great! The more the merrier!

Formidable: Yes. It would be rude to leave the commander and his team out of this. Let's go!

The girls arrived at a Galaxy Railways themed station where Big One is supposed to land

Klaudia: Ryza, don't wander off like that

Ryza: Relax Klaudia. I'm sure nothing will happen to me

Just as she finished talking, she fell into the tracks as she didn't look at where she was going

Klaudia: Ryza!

Just then, the lights in the ledge began to light up, followed by an announcement on the PA system

Announcement: The Space Defense Force train, Big One is about to arrive on Track Three. For your safety, please stay behind the white line

Ryza: Track Three?

In the distance, Big One is descending onto the tracks and is now approaching where Ryza is

Announcement: The Space Defense Force train, Big One is about to arrive on Track Three. For your safety, please stay behind the white line

Ryza looked behind to see Big One coming towards her, whistling

Ryza: wow!!

Ryza stared in awe at Big One approaching until she realized that Big One is going to hit her

Klaudia: Ryza run!!

Klaudia exclaimed and Ryza wasted no time to start running. Big One continued travelling at high speed until there was a screeching of metal as Big One activated its brakes. Ryza continued running until she tripped on a sleeper, making her land face first on the ballast. Ryza look behind to see Big One coming towards her, sparks flying out of its wheels

Ryza: AAHHHHHH!!!

Klaudia: RYZA!!!
