While Enterprise E went of to search for Defiant, the Starfleet Destroyer made his way into Base before bringing out his ship and knocking out.

The next morning, he woke up to a complaining sound. "C'mon Enterprise you need to eat actual food!" "What do you think replicators are for?" "I know what they're for so c'mon on!" Defiant got stressed out that he yelled out. "You just woke me up in the middle of a conversation with the Prophets!" "You know what I really think I should go with you peacefully and have a decent breakfast before I comeback to him." "I agree and I think we should bring Illustrious with us since these two talk a lot about the Holiness and stuff like that." Voyager replies as the two left Defiant alone and as he was about to fall asleep once more he heard a voice. "Not my ship again!" Defiant groaned as he got his rigging on and moved to another location as he saw that he caused some damage onto poor Sandy's ship.

As they were passing by one of the Dorms, Enterprise E and Voyager noticed The Carrier acting cold towards the Maid. "I haven't had breakfast yet but I need to talk to my 7x Great Grandmother so go with Belfast and I'll join you later." "Alright just be careful." "I will!" Enterprise E then walks towards his ship to grab a Rations Pack. "I just hope it's going to help me have at least a peaceful conversation with her." He thought to himself before transporting himself towards his ancestor.

"The Sakura Empire has taken a hit and its going to need some time before they fully recover unfortunately we aren't in the best position ourselves to pounce on this opportunity." Wales explains as she was walking with Cleveland. "Let me guess, it has something to do with the Black Mental Cube and all of our Enterprise's strange behavior unlike her descendant who was able to let some people in his social life recently." "There are plenty of reasons." The two then walked inside an empty classroom as Wales asked. "Did you learn anything new?" Defiant became the first to answer. "All I know is that according to the Prophets, this cube is bad news." "Other than that, I'm afraid not since we're completely stumped." Amazon adds as Langley continues. "It's difficult to know what we're looking for if we don't even know about Mental Cubes in the first place." "I can see quite clearly that's literally a Black Box." Ark Royal said as she was looking at a Destroyers Sports Magazine. "Hold on this Cube's glow has gotten a little brighter than b the last time I saw it." "Since its related to the Sirens, we should assume that its a very bad sign." "That's what I just said Wales!" Defiant yelled out. "If those Sirens ever think about messing with my Sister and 7x Great GrandNephew, they're not going to get away from it." Hornet turns towards Belfast and Voyager. "Do you have an update on them by any chance?" Belfast sighed. "She's not herself miss." "And He's a little calm, nothing like a flute to clear his mind and is also trying to get some sense onto her." Voyager added. "I gotcha but I just wish she doesn't suffer alone even if both her and Enterprise E have a similar problem." "Meow! Akagi's the worst! Why'd she have to cause trouble for all of us?" Akashi complains as Wales was in thought. "Akagi was the one principally aligned with the Sirens but now that she's gone, I wonder how Kaga will act?" "Ugh! I want answers right meow!"

Enterprise was sitting on the wing of one of her Wildcats when Enterprise E arrives. "There you are 7x Great Grandmother." Enterprise CV-6 looks down. "We're ships not human so don't consider me as your 7x Great Grandmother." The Sovereign Class Battleship shrugged his shoulders and turns around before showing her a ration pack. "I was planning to share my Rations with you but seeing that you are not human, maybe I'll get some Oil for you." As he was about to take a step, Enterprise CV-6 stopped him. "Wait." "The Starfleet Battleship looked at his ancestor as she began to speak. "I shouldn't have said that but please I want to know one thing?" "What is it?" "Why do you care about me?" "It's easy because for one thing, we're family and another thing is that we've both had traumatic experiences with us and the effects of a Cube but I had friends to help me cope." The two Enterprise sat down on the flight deck as they began to eat the Breakfast that was in the rations as Enterprise E continued to talk carefully.

"You can't seal away Orochi!" Kaga yells out to Nagato. "Temporary, we're just going to pause it since Akagi's gone." "Who's decision was that?" "It was mine and mine alone." "Half measures Nagato, Sakura Empire has no future without the completion of 'Project Orochi'." "Akagi's absence has clearly made a toll on you, you should really get some rest and take some time to allow your heart to heal." "How dare you!" "My decision is final, you are dismissed."

Takao and Zuikaku were walking around their Base until they stopped in a bridge. "How are you feeling?" Takao asks Zuikaku. "I'm fine now and ready to fight at any moment." Zuikaku replies. "That's very good to hear however our situation is less than ideal and it's worse than we thought, Sakura Empire is pushing towards a terrible fate." "Well then I guess it's up to us to try and change." Takao nods at Zuikaku's words. "And I'm not going to let them do all the work cause we have to be willing to change as well."

Inside Voyager's Sickbay, Enterprise E was having a nightmare while inside the dorms, Enterprise CV-6 was hallucinating as she struggled to walk down a hall when she saw her evil counterpart. "What are you? Tell me right now!" "When Humanity began sailing the ocean, they desired adventure before another took over with a powerful need to conquer the seas." Fire came out of nowhere as the counterpart continues to speak. "The history of the ocean is full of terror and conflict which makes up humanity's true desire, the drama humanity truly longs for." "What kind of insanity is this?" Enterprise yelled back as her counterpart changed form. "What's happening you changed?" She said with a gasp. "You don't fool me because of the looks you've stolen." "No I'm quite real as the mirror that reflects all of human kind." The person laughed before continuing. "I am Orochi, I am a monster and I was born from the Will of humanity." The person dissappears as Enterprise held out her hand. "Wait!" Was all the Carrier said before passing out.

Back in Voyager's Sickbay, Enterprise E jumps out of his bed as the EMH activates. "Is there something wrong?" Enterprise E kept his head down with no reply. "Doctor to Voyager please come to Sickbay at once." "On my way." Voyager said as she got up and went to the replicator. "Coffee, Black." A cup appears and she quickly drank it causing the tongue to burn. "Going to need this healed." She said to herself as she ran out of her Captain's Quarters towards Sickbay. "Double E are you alright?" "No V, its just that I dreamt of a hive where I saw my Borg self tackling me inside something that didn't look like its a Borg ship but he then pinned me onto a missile launcher and as the Missile was inches from my face, I woke up!" "I believe we should get Defiant here to talk about that dream but for now get some rest."

The next morning, Enterprise woke up to a bright light as Belfast was about to check Enterprise's head for a fever, the Carrier got into a seating position. "What happened?" "You were found unconscious in the hall, you fanited cause you're not taking care of yourself." "Is this a dream?" Enterprise said before getting out of bed and stumbles before catching herself and not letting the maid help her. "I need some time alone and if you excuse me, and I'm not worth it if I'm unable to fight." Belfast then walks up to her with a smile as she grabs the Carrier's tie. "What the!" They then walked out of the room with Belfast still holding Enterprise's tie as the Carrier complained causing a scene as Javelin looked around. "Is she in danger?" "That was strange." said Ayanami. "She's never like that What's wrong with Belfast?" Asked Unicorn just as Laffey arrives. "Sorry I'm late, overslept.

In the Cafeteria, Belfast was watching Enterprise who had a plate infront of her. "Okay, what's happening?" "Lover's quarrel?" "Enterprise you need to eat." Belfast spoke with a strict tone. "No thanks I'm still not that hungry." "I said Eat!" "Fine." Enterprise groans as she grabs a spoon before looking at the plate's contents and grabbing the pudding. Belfast loosened up her tone as she smiles. "Ah good, if you eat decent meals regularly, you wouldn't be so preoccupied with negative thoughts and as I mentioned before, I don't believe that you're invested into fighting wars as I was meant to believe." "You're right, I think I might be afraid of the ocean." "I know, and yet you charge into battle so why is that?" "Because fighting is the reason for my entire existence." "You need to stop falling back on easy answers, and I know it is difficult for you to accept the truth, but you must face it to move on." As Enterprise was thinking what to say an explosion rocked the building!" Enterprise jumped out of her chair. "What was that?" She asks as others ran towards the docks. "Big sis! There's been an attack but from where?" "If that's the Sakura Empire, why would they attack now and why aren't the patrol ships doing anything to help?" Cleveland's sisters asked. "No the enemy attacking is."

"It's not coming from the ocean and somehow the enemy infiltrated our Base." A shipgirl said as she saw a Siren flying off. "Its them its the Sirens!" "Hahahahah! hahahaha! hahahaha! The Siren laughs as she left a trail of destruction. Hornet ran towards Northampton and held her up. "Belfast, and a few others are trying to the Siren." "Yeah and would've thought that one of those Sirens dare come alone." Hornet lools up to see her sister Enterprise who told herself after receiving the same firey vision. "It's my purpose for existence." She then proceeded to put on her rigging before following the others.

"Hahahaha!" The Siren laughs as she held The Black Mental Cube. "She's way too fast!" Norfolk as Belfast speaks up. "The enemy has stolen the Black Mental Cube, we must not let her get away, no matter what!" "There's no way we could ever catch up to her." Edinburgh complains. "Actually we can, cause I think that I'm not only in a good firing position but Enterprise E is fast." "Alright time to intercept!" Enterprise E said as he increased his speed until he flew past the Siren before Belfast fires her guns at the enemy. "Oh we did it!" Edinburgh said in joy before the cloud of smoke left and revealed that the enemy was unscathed. "Looks like its my turn!" Enterprise E said as he aims his shield at the Siren and fired his own weapons but was stopped by the enemy's weapon fire before talking. "Hi there, does someone want to play?" She then proceeded to open up a portal to reveal dozens of Siren Ships. "Let's party! Cause tomorrow's going to be a big day!"

The Siren Ships then launched its attack onto Azur Lane and as one plane was about to hit Cleveland and her sisters, an Eagle Union plane was spotted shooting it down and as they looked behind them, they saw Hornet. "Y'all think I'm going to let my sister do all the work did ya!" Right behind her, Laffey, Javelin, and Ayanami were evading enemy fire as they fired at the Mass Produced Ships. As one plane was about to ram itself onto Javelin, they saw a series of arrows hit the enemy causing them to look back. "Enterprise!" "Hornet hold this position!" Hornet obeyed along with Laffey and Ayanami who followed the CV-8. "If I'm really afraid of the ocean, why do I continue to fight as if I'm not?" Enterprise thought to herself as she heads towards Belfast's location.

"Aah I'm going to die!" Edinburgh said covering her head as the others continued to fight back against the Siren. "Seriously you're not trying to make this fun for me?" Both Enterprise E and Belfast aimed their weapons at her as a Squadron of planes came out of nowhere until the owner Yelled out in anger. "Siren!" "Oh yes! It's Enterprise!" The Sovereign Class Battleship moved into position with his ancestor as he said. "Hey what about me?" He complained as both Enterprises and the Siren then fired their weapons at the the same time!

Meanwhile Kaga went rogue as she got the Orochi online as everyone ran to see what was happening. "Wait is that Orochi?" Takao asks as she noticed the ship Kaga was on. "Wait Kaga Come back!" Zuikaku yelled out only to be ignored.
