The Next Day...

All night I was still thinking about how Akagi and Kaga came to my universe... I got absolutely no sleep and my songs played back to the beginning. I saw my alarm clock go off and turned it off with no sleep and I got up and went to the bathroom. Hoo boy... I must prepare before heading back to Azur Lane... I went to splash water in my face to be awake, I then headed downstairs to the main lobby.

Junpei: Sup man? Whoa... you look tired man, what happened?

Minato: It's nothing... It's just my normal appearance.

Junpei: You sure man? You need some coffee, something?

Minato: Sure... I guess... Also I see it's just you and me here.

Junpei: Yeah... everyone has their own things to do but I'm just here playing some video games. Anyway, I'll get you some coffee, its so good, it would be something to die for!

Minato: Something to die for... huh...

Junpei: Huh?

Minato: I-It's nothing... My coffee?

Junpei: Coming rightttt up!

I laid on the couch and I tried to sleep for a while. I herd voices in my head like, "Come back commander~", "Minato please come back, I need help!", "Commander... don't make us wait...~", and then "Yo dude you okay?". Wait that was Junpei.

Minato: Yes?

Junpei: Bro... you sure you're okay?

Minato: Yes, can I have my coffee now...

Junpei: Alright here you go.

As I drank my coffee I hanged out with Junpei while he was playing his video games. I started questioning if I should tell Junpei about what's really happening. I had a feeling that I shouldn't because he could get himself killed just like that one time when he went ahead to the shadow in the train.  We sat there for couple of hours then I decided to buy weapons from the police station for when I come back to Azur Lane.

I went to Paulownia Mall and headed to the Police Station.

Police Officer Kurosawa: Greetings Minato.

Minato: Hey...

Police Officer Kurosawa: I don't have that much, but you should be able to find what you need.

I decided to buy a Fudou Masamune and a Saber that was in total, ¥41,500.

Police Officer Kurosawa: Is this all?

Minato: Yes.

Police Officer Kurosawa: Well here you go, thanks for stopping by.

Minato: whatever...

As I left, I decided to go to Azur Lane finally... without contact of Takao I didn't know where those two would be. I got my phone, opened Azur Lane, and was warped back to Azur Lane. I warped back to my office where it was still dark and I had my weapons and my Evoker. I put them in a special drawer and kept my Evoker on me. I still felt tired even with that coffee. I decided to go to sleep for a while.

Akagi: Commander... Are you in there?

Kaga: Hehehehe...ehehehe! Even if you try to run away from us, we can still find you.

While I was sleeping I herd nothing. All I thought about was sleep.

Akagi: Commander please open the door like a good boy...

Kaga: No response?

Akagi & Kaga: Guess we'll invite ourselves in!

Akagi: Huh?

Minato: Mmmm.... Persona 5.. is be-etter then.... Persona 4... mmmmm....

Kaga: It seems he's sleeping

Akagi: Oh commander~ wake up sleepy head~

Minato: Mmmm... I didn't study for my exams... Junpei you're such... an idiot.....

Kaga: Should we just leave the commander to sleep?

Akagi: No, I want to look at his dreamy face~

Kaga: I suppose we can wait here until he wakes up~

Minato: Mmmm... why didn't I get... mmm.. shot....

After I thought about getting shot I wake up just to see Akagi and Kaga standing stained in blood.

Minato: *yawwwwnnnn*

Akagi: Oh commander it seems that you're awake~

Kaga: Guess what?

Akagi & Kaga: Co-man-der~ We found you... Ahahahahahahahah~

Minato: Whatever...

These two idiots have gone insane and I decided to ask them questions.

Minato: *Yawn* How... did..... you find my sch..ool?

Akagi: Fufufufu~ We forced it out of Takao...

Minato: Oh.... sp-peaking of....Takao what happened... to her...?

Kaga: I guess you can say, we made her smile~

Minato: *yawn* Oh... that's... cool...

Kaga: If she didn't confess about where you were, we began tickling he-

Minato: All right... I think I feel much rested... Anyway what are we talking about?

Akagi: Short answer, we forced Takao to tell us where you were and we may have not probably done something to her.

Minato: So... what did you do to her...?

Kaga: We just had fun, that's all~

Minato: I have a feeling you did something wrong...

I went to Takao's dorm and I saw Takao tied in a chair.

Minato: *whispers* kill her...

Akagi & Kaga looked at me

Kaga: You said something commander?

Minato: I said why is she tied up...

Akagi: Don't worry about it.

Kaga: She's into it.

Takao: (muffled) HELP ME!

Minato: *whispers* yes... suffer...

Kaga: We'll head back to our dorms, see you later my darling~

She smiled at me when Akagi left Takao's dorm.

Minato: Darling?

Takao: (muffled) WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! UNTIE ME!

Minato: Oh, yeah I forgot about you... I guess I'll untie you.

I untied Takao and removed the gag from her mouth.

Takao: Minato, you said a week!

Minato: They found my school location...

Takao: *sigh* How was the break?

Minato: Well... they killed some students that were talking about me and a student council member saw a dead body. Now the S.E.E.S are on the case too...

Takao: I wished I could've done something here...

Minato: So... tell me how the heck you got tied up?

Takao: Akagi and Kaga forced me to tell them where you were. I refused to cooperate with them while I was holding them off... They played with my sides, any sensitive spot they can find to make me smile. They tied me up so I couldn't escape.

Minato: That's... pretty weird...

Takao: Of course! Who would put their hands on me anyway?

Minato: Why should I care...?

Takao: Please Minato... you must care for me... Anyway... I have some work to do. I'll see you around.

She hugged me after not seeing me for a while I didn't hug back just standing there like I wanted to go back to sleep.

I walked back to my office looking down at my feet and opened my office door. I sat on my chair and resumed the work I missed. I was looking at some papers about possible constructions of a new ship. It seemed... like someone was watching me...

???: I found myself a plaything~

I turned back so far that I fell of my chair. I looked and no one was there. Damn voices... I went back to work.

Timeskip

It was the afternoon, and I was on break. Some girl with blue hair came by to ask me a question.

Minato: Damn... What's your name again? 

Helena: It's Helana commander.

Minato: Oh you... what do you want...

Helana: Commander, the girls came back from a commission, what should you do?

Minato: Make them do another commission then they can rest.

Helana: Yes commander!

Before she left I decided to tell her of what I'm "feeling".

Minato: Wait Helana...

Helana: Yes commander?

Minato: I feel like some weirdo is watching me... do you think it's normal?

Helana: Well... it depends on the situation. I think you're find either way. Alright bye commander!

Minato: Wow, she was useless...

???: Pssst, behind you.

I turned around to see a girl with hair like black licorice and eyes of blood red.

???: Boo!

Minato: Wow... you "scared " me...

???: Aw stop being like that...

Minato: Well... who even are you anyway...

Taihou: Name's Taihou, I hope this burning love would be only you and me~

Minato: Whatever... also I don't care if you try to scare me it won't do anything...

Taihou: We'll see about that hehe...

Taihou was a shadow, following me everywhere I go.  I once eavesdrop a conversation about me from Akagi.

A few minutes later

I decided to get some water since it's the only thing in this damn place. I left to get some and I overheard some noises in Akagi's dorm. I'm guessing Kaga wasn't around so I have a chance to listen what's going on.

Akagi: I will tell you this, the commander is so cute when he's emotionless ahahahah~

Taihou: Is he...? Well, I want him for myself now...

Akagi: No, you better stay away from the commander, he's mine!

Taihou: No, he's mine!

I stepped away from Akagi's dorm and went to get some water. I suddenly bumped into Takao on accident while heading to the water fountain. 

Takao: Owie!

I didn't flinch and saw Takao fall on the floor.

Minato: Uh... are you okay?

I reached out to give her a hand

Takao: Yeah, thanks...

She grabbed my hand and I pulled her up.

Minato: You should really watch where you're going...

Takao: Sorry... 

Minato: Wait Takao...

Takao: Yes, Minato?

Minato: Do you know who Taihou is?

Takao: Taihou?

Minato: Did I stutter?

Takao: She's an aircraft carrier.

Minato: Of course she is... what's next? A heavy cruiser?

Takao: If I were you, you better start running away from her...

Minato: *whispers* just like my life problems...

Takao: Huh?

Minato: I meant why.

Takao ran away from me in fear without an answer. I turned around and Taihou was there, behind me. She a smirk on her face.

Taihou: H-Hi Com-man-der...~

Minato: Hi Taihou...

Minato: What do you want...

Taihou: Do you want us to have a dinner, a bath, or maybe... me...?

Minato: *whispers* I'd rather die...

Taihou: What is it?

Minato: I meant... how did you get here...

Taihou: Heheheh, Akagi invited me to visit you~

Minato: Okay?

I decided to walk away form Taihou.

Taihou: I just wanted to see you, that's all. I did murder commanders in the past that upset me. Teehee!

I quickly turned back and look at Taihou.

Minato: Do it. Please do it. 

Taihou: Huh?

Minato: DO IT PLEASE.

Taihou: I'm into you, because of this burning love~

Burning love... really? I backed away from Taihou and I really wanted to die...

Taihou: Where are you going, my love?

Minato: Going back to my office... *whispers* since you won't kill me...
