Chapitre 34: CHAPTER 24 - LIGHTNING ELEMENT, FIRST FORM (4)
The lightnings surround Kay with enormous power, the light came out from the below and slowly going to the top.
With serious expression on Kay 's face, he is ready to unleash his element beyond the boundary.
[Lightning Element, First Form]
The lightning tornado surrounds him and become larger and bigger as the time approach. Then, Kay withdraws the Zuikaku 's sword and slash it.
SLASH...
ZAPP......
His eyes turns yellow and his power increase insignificantly. The others either surprised or puzzled with Kay 's power.
The one who will protect the others, consuming the darkness and eliminate the impurities. The barrier that cannot be broken until the last man standing.
"Let me tell you"
"Enormous power come with huge responsibility"
"Yet people misused their powers to destroy each other"
"And, my Element can Destroy The World!!!".
"The Guardian Swords!!".
ZAPP...ZAPP.....ZAPP...
ZAPP................
Kay raises his hand towards the sky while carrying Zuikaku, and the swords fallen from the sky with lightnings surround them. Beautiful as ever with everyone watching the sky.
The swords moving toward Kay, fallen directly at Kay. When the swords reached him, enormous lightnings follow up.
"I who oath to protect the people, the guardian swords", said Kay. "Release the light, eliminate the darkness".
ZAPP......ZAPP....
ZAPP......ZAPP.....
The swords spark in light, creating a shock wave barrier. The lightning barrier become bigger and larger, protect the girls and destroy the mirror sea with enormous power.
ZAPP.....ZAPP.....
"It's very beautiful", said Zuikaku as she watches Kay.
"It's indeed beautiful", said Belfast. "May this mirror sea will gone forever and will not coming back to haunt us".
"It's indeed beautiful, but............", said Wales. "I don't some girls with have the same reaction with us".
The guardian swords destroy the mirror sea that trapped these girls, freeing them from despair. Since they already saw Kay, they already sense the hope that they will survive.
ZAPP....ZAPP......
ZAPP....ZAPP......
CRACK...........
The mirror sea has been destroyed and the sea has calmed down again. Kay relieves a deep sigh as he requires an enormous amount of energy to use the guardian swords. He's really tired right now, and he really doesn't anticipate any more trouble he wants to confront.
"............Let's go home", said Kay.
Kay's not in the mood, he thinks Azur Lane's almost split up. He 's got to wrap things up here quickly.
"Wait!! Sakura Empire is still here!!", shouted the Eagle Union girl. "We still can........"
"THERE IS NOTHING FOR YOU TO FIGHT ANYMORE!!!!", shouted Kay as his patience is very thin.
Several lightning bursts around him, making the others taken aback and frightened. Zuikaku is trying to comfort Kay down, but her effort is futile. She is badly injured and has no strength enough to calm him.
"They're already retreating and you're ashamed of yourself!!! ".
"You've never won the battle, instead of you ..."
Poke....poke...poke.....
Belfast is starting to poke Kay's cheek to calm him down. Everyone can feel the enormous strength that still surrounds him, even though he thought he almost used up his power.
"Calm down, Master," Belfast said. "Master needs patience to be a good commander. Now, Master, give us the command to retreat".
"............"
"This is my order, all the fleets are heading back to Azur Lane," Kay said.
"As you wish, commander," said most of the girls.
"What are you going to do, Master? "Ask Belfast. "Are you going to stay here for a moment? ".
".........."
"I'm going to take that as yes," Wales said. "Belfast and I will stay here while the others return to Azur Lane."
This battle should never take place, and Kay will immediately reject it when the Sakura Empire proposed to him. However, he doesn't want Eagle Union to hate him any more because he's going to improve the bond between them.
He had no choice but to accept it, and now they're going to face the consequences for their cause. His anger and his trust for them are never to be remedied again.
********************
"Is Enterprise all right? , "asked Kay reluctantly. "Now I am more reluctant to leave all of you alone when carry out a major mission without me."
"She's all right, Master," Belfast replied. "She's still unconscious, but she's all right. After she's had a good rest, she'll definitely be fine".
"I have a lot of questions to ask about Enterprise, but it can wait," Kay said. "We've got more important things to do."
"I agree with you, commander", said Wales. "It just......how much longer you want to carry that girl".
Wales pointed a finger at Zuikaku, the girl Kay had been carrying for a while. Belfast and Wales seem a little unhappy about that.
"Sorry about that, Zuikaku," Kay said, releasing Zuikaku from his arms. "Can you walk around? ".
"Yes, I can........walk", said Zuikaku as she tries to balance herself.
"Nope.....you can't", said Kay as he grabs Zuikaku 's hand.
As Kay grabs Zuikaku 's hand, the other his hand pinches Zuikaku's cheek.
"And this is because of the trouble you caused, Zuikaku," Kay said while pinching her cheek. "You're really giving me a couple of headaches. aCan you stop making me worriedbout you , Zuikaku? ".
"I....I 'm sorry," Zuikaku said as she rubbed her cheek. Everyone can see that Zuikaku's cheek is as red as the tomato.
"But, I grateful that you're worried about me, Kay".
"What do you mean by that? ", asked Kay. 'I mean, of course, I was worried if you were always trying to help the others first. Just think for yourself first, Zuikaku".
Zuikaku has been going to get scolded by Kay again, while Belfast, Wales and Ayanami are watching these two couple. Jealousy surrounds these two girls, and Ayanami can feels it.
Poke.....poke.....poke...
"Can you both stop flirting with each other? ", Asked Belfast while poking Kay's cheek. "Please be on your own, Master."
"Commander, please refrain from flirting with another girl in front of us," Wales said.
"Wait a minute, why did I get scolded for no reason at all? ", asked Kay. "I don't come here to get scolded, I 'm coming to save you."
"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY EXCUSE!!, MASTER/COMMANDER", shouted Belfast and Wales. "That's including you, Zuikaku".
Zuikaku becomes a little embarrassed as her face becomes red. She's trying to deny it, but Belfast and Wales are not listening. Now, Kay and Zuikaku have been scolded by Belfast and Wales, while Ayanami has been forced to watch.
A few minutes later, Kay tells them the problem he 's facing right now. He realized something unusual, that being said, as he did not see Shoukaku with them.
"Did I forget someone..........", asked Kay. He can't finished the sentences as someone suddenly hugged from his back. It's Shoukaku and she seems pretty happily.
"Shikikan, I miss you!!!", shouted Shoukaku as she hugging Kay quite hard. "Listen to me...Kaga and Akagi always bullied us, shikikan".
"This time, they kept ordering us to stay behind, shikikan".
".........Shikikan?".
All of a sudden, Kay becomes quiet for a moment. The reason is quite easy, as Belfast and Wales are very mad at the moment. They're pretty scary and giving liked a mad gestures, and Ayanami really wants to run away from here.
"Did I disturb you, shikikan?", asked Shoukaku in not very sorry. "Teehee...I'm sorry".
"MASTER/COMMANDER!!!", shouted Belfast and Wales.
"Well, this is probably a good opportunity to use that special technique", said Kay. "Kay 's secret technique and definitely not stealing from someone else as long as you want to retreat with epic movement and stylish - Double Accel, Nigerundayo".
"I forget something so I to go first, bye-bye", said Kay while trying to run away.
"Come back here!!!", shouted Belfast and Wales.
He survives so don't worry too much. It just, he probably a little tired, mentally and physically I mean.
***********************
"Akagi is missing !! "Wales said. She was really confused when Kay told them the truth behind the problem.
"Akagi is missing, most of the Sakura Empire fleets are damaged, Kaga is badly wounded, and probably needs a long rest. With the fleet losing its flagship, they have no reason to fight any more, "Kay said. "But the biggest problem is that their sirens are betraying them. They are being attacked by their own mass-produced sirens".
"Isn't that normal, commander? "Wales asked. "I mean, sirens are our enemies to start with."
Kay is trying to recall last night's battle against hundreds of sirens. The battle is just as one-sided as Kay easily won the battle. But this morning, when he fights the sirens, he can feel the differences.
"Last night, when I try to come here.......I got attacked by the sirens", said Kay. "It's only sirens but probably hundred of them....I don't remember the actual numbers, but there isn't even a single high-class siren there".
".......!!!!!!".
The girls are swarming at Kay, but Zuikaku manages to get the first.
"Are you okay, Kay? "As Zuikaku asked, she was very concerned about him fighting alone. "You're not injured, aren't you? ".
Zuikaku gets somewhat embarrassed when she notices something at Kay.
"No need to be so concern about me", said Kay. "They didn't pick enough fight for me....I guess standing there with that kind of storm is really bad".
Kay didn't really want to remember the details of the fight. He keeps fighting and destroying all the sirens in front of him. What he knew was that the battle was over when he finally got the grip.
"But that's not the problem," Kay said. "When I fight the sirens this morning, they're targeting the shipgirls of the Sakura Empire rather than me. No matter how harsh I destroy them, they still attacking those girls".
"It's liked, they are being programmed to attack the Sakura Empire shipgirls only".
"...................."
The mystery is still being continued to play around them. Either it was a mere coincidence, or it was their tactics to destroy the Sakura Empire. It's too soon, however, for Kay to panic. He 's going to get the answer he wants next time.
"Can I ask you what's going to happen to Akagi? ", Asked Kay.
"We didn't know that either, commander," Wales replied. "After Enterprise released her power last night, we suddenly woke up after early morning."
"Only Enterprise-Sama will know the answer, Master," Belfast said as she looked at Enterprise.
With Enterprise still unconscious, he decides to move on to the next plan, which is to find the missing brown fox. It's basically a rescue mission.
Well, it's not going as he intend for. Kay tries to call Mr. Eagle and its comes shortly after that.
"Did you find her?", asked Kay. "If I dumb enough to guess, you don't found her, right?".
".............", said Mr, Eagle.
"I take that as no", said Kay. "You're the useless companion as I ever have, you know. And, why you are gotten bigger....by that I mean 'FAT'. Did someone else feed you?".
Mr. Eagle is surprised and puzzled by Kay 's question. Literally, it looks bigger than normal.
"Ermm, Kay," Zuikaku said, calling Kay 's name. "My sister and I were kept feeding him at the Sakura Empire. Not to mention that the bird is quite popular among the children, and they also kept feeding it as well".
"Takao and Atago.......and many others".
.............
.............
.............
Mr. Eagle is running away from Kay. Looks like someone's slackening too much, and Kay's sighing deeply. Right now, he really misses Mr. Cat. The problem is that the cat can't swim, and he's a lot more useless than Mr. Eagle here.
"Do we still need to rescue the Akagi? ", Asked Shoukaku as she is unhappy when Kay decides to find her. "She's a bad Senpai, even this sea doesn't want her."
"We rescue her and we tort.....I mean we can get important information from her", said Kay. "We can also use her as a bargain".
As Kay is trying to tell them his plan, he realizes that Zuikaku is suddenly quiet for a long time, Then, he decides to ask her.
"What's wrong, Zuikaku?", asked Kay. "Do you hurt somewhere?".
"No.....no.....it's not liked that", said Zuikaku while feeling shy. "It just.....I guess you're pretty popular with other girls and.........".
"Wait......What are you talking about?", asked Kay. He is pretty worried about that.
"But, I don't think it's very appropriated for you to do it to other girls", said Zuikaku as she pointed her finger at Kay 's neck.
It's a love bite
"............!!!!!.
Kay opens his hood and everyone can see the love bite on his neck. Shoukaku is closing Ayanami 's eyes while the others........uhhhh......
Zuikaku is red as tomato, while Belfast and Wales are pretty mad.
"Can I ask what is that, master/commander?", asked Belfast and Wales. "And I really want to ask you what are you doing last night?".
"Haaahhhh........EUGEN!!!!!!!", shouted Kay.
He survives, maybe?
***********************
That night, Cleveland and the other Eagle Union shipgirls are having a meeting at her ship. For the formalities, Cleveland is the representative for the Eagle Union that been assigned from Kay. However, the truth is, most of them are still showing their loyalty at Enterprise.
They still respected Cleveland but they will prioritized Enterprise first and then her.
"Why we still need to follow that commander's order?", asked Washington. "Enterprise already giving us the perfect chance to destroy Sakura Empire fleets and now we waste it!!".
"Now.....now....commander probably concerned about Enterprise 's condition", said Cleveland, trying to calm the girls. "We will get another chance soon".
"Don't try to comfort us, Cleveland", said Washington. "We knew that you're loyal at that commander. How do you feel to become his pe.........".
BAMM...
Montpelier slams the table with very fierce expressions. She really hates when someone saying bad thing at her sister. Washington keeps her mouth shut tight as she doesn't want to pick a fight with her.
"..............."
The room becomes quiet as nobody dares to speak. Unlike Royal Navy, Eagle Union is quite persistent and ignorant.
They don't realize that Kay already throwing away his trust from them.
"No matter how much you against it, we still need the commander", said Montpelier. "He is the strongest commander and we pretty much dumb enough to reject him".
"No...who are we to reject him in the first place".
"................."
"But, Enterprise is strong enough for us. We didn't need two leader, right?", asked Pennyslvania".
"With Enterprise suddenly attacked us that morning, I think not", said Montpelier. "We are very lucky that commander manage to save us and destroy the mirror sea before it's too late".
"You saw what Enterprise do last night, right? She probably can't control her power yet", said Northampton. "She has the same power as commander!! That's mean she is definitely stronger as commander".
"Now, it's up to us to support her".
".................."
Last night, without their commander, they already almost being defeated by Sakura Empire. With pretty much useless against them and nobody to give them a tactic, they are easily being overcome. However, Enterprise become their hero as she managed to destroy the sirens and probably damaged Sakura Empire shipgirls without they knowing.
The lightning tornado, which is the same technique Kay uses is being used by Enterprise last night.
Same power, different people. [Lightning Element, First Form]
Cleveland relieves a deep sighed as the others keep arguing with each other. No matter how much she thinks, she can't resolves it by herself.
"What should I do, commander?", asked Cleveland in her mind.
.......
.......
.......
Meanwhile, Kay and the others are having a little bit surprised as Javelin and Laffey are decided to stay with their group.
Javelin and Laffey seem pretty happy to see Ayanami but that's not the only surprise they have.
"Who are you, little girl!!!!", shouted Kay. "I mean no....what are doing here, Z23?".
"Ah before that...please said to Eugen I'm very grateful for the problem she makes".
He said sarcastically by the way.
"Well, Eugen asked me to stay with you, kommandantin", said Z23. "Please call me Nimi..............".
Before she managed to finish her sentences, Javelin and Laffey suddenly took her to a room with Ayanami, leaving Kay and the others clueless.
.................
"Should we call a day?", asked Kay.
