Hello, this is Kineke13. This is a story I thought of while watching the Kantai Collection anime. I hope I could entertain you all with this story. It is mostly based of the Anime, but without death scenes.

Third POV

At the bottom of the ocean in the Magallanica nation, inside the base of the Aqua Force clan, were the elite troops called the 'Blue Storms'.

Formed by the Vice-Admiral, Blue Storm Dragon, Maelstrom, they were the ones to ensure the safety in the most dangerous parts of the ocean.

After the Great Invasion War of Link Joker, Maelstrom was incapacitated from battle. Even though many would seek him out for his opinion on dangerous matters, the dragon has lost the ability to battle in the front lines.

Blue Wave Dragon, Tetra-Drive Dragon, who was the Rear-Admiral, was then chosen to succeed Maelstrom, and was renamed to Blue Storm Wave Dragon, Tetra-Burst Dragon.

Inside the control room of the Blue Storm headquarters, Tetra-Burst was overseeing the reconnaissance teams sent out to scout or capture the remaining Link Joker invaders who were left behind. His fellow captain, General Starless, was manning the radio.

"Starless, connect me to the reconnaissance teams." Tetra-Burst said.

"Right away, sir." Starless answered.

After a few minutes, the screens were filled with the men from the reconnaissance teams.

"This is Tetra-Burst to Recon Team 01 to 05, status report?"

"This is Spyros from Team 01, we found nothing out of the ordinary, sir."

"Zaharias from Team 02, same happening here in our area."

"This is Gregorius from 03, nothing but algae and more algae, sir."

"Tidal Tempest from 04 on the line, we've got nada for the past hour."

Looks like te threat has truly been neutralized, but one couldn't be too sure. There was still one team that needed to report.

"Recon Team 05, report" Tetra-Burst commanded, but no answer came from the other end.

"Recon Team 05, respond!" he repeated.

"This is getting weird. For the past 2 hours, Team 05 hasn't responded yet. Do you think something went wrong?" General Starless said.

"To be honest, I don't know. But they must have a reason to not respond."

"When they won't come in for at least an hour, we shall go look for them."

After those words, there was a transmission coming in from one of the screens. A young man wearing white suit with green accents and a large gun appeared with a pure white small dragon on his back.

"Sir, this is General Hermes and Icefall Dragon from Team 05, we are now returning to the base. Permission to open the gates, please? We have news to report!"

They both looked like they sustained damage with their his tattered clothes and wounds.

"Sir, permission to open the gates?" Starless asked.

"Granted. I want to know more on how they looked so damaged." Tetra-Burst responded.

"This is General Starless, we are now opening the gates!"

Tetra-Burst was now standing along with Starless at the doors of the infirmary waiting for the doctor.

After half an hour, a blue haired woman in a white nurse outfit with an eye patch named Medical Officer of the Rainbow Elixir came out of the treating room.

"Miss, how are the two of them?" he asked.

"Hermes suffered minor injuries, so he will be fine. Icefall on the other hand has been asleep during the examination, but he would be alright after a day of rest, so no need to worry."

"Thanks doctor, is it possible to speak with them?" Starless asked.

"Yes, but only Hermes would be able to talk right now." She said.

"That is alright, carry on, doctor." Tetra-Burst said.

After the doctor left for the other patients, the both of them walked into the infirmary to find Hermes sitting next to Icefall who was sleeping.

"Sir Tetra-Burst, Sir Starless!" Hermes said, and saluted them.

"At ease, general. Now, what was the news that you were talking about?" Tetra-Burst asked.

"It sounded like it was urgent." Starless added.

"Yes sir, as you already know, we were looking for remnants of the invaders today, but we found something way out of the ordinary." Hermes told.

"Did it involve the invaders?"

"No, but here is the weird part: in one of the caves we were investigating, we found something we thought was impossible. A portal, to another world."

Silence was then found in the room. The one who broke it was Starless.

"You're telling me, that you and Icefall, have found a portal, to another world? Preposterous! It must have been your imagination, general!" he yelled.

"Sir, it's true. I know it's hard to believe, but it's the truth!" Hermes tried to defend.

"Starless, I think we need to hear the rest of the story, then you can yell at him. Besides, did you forget about earth. So it isn't that farfetched" Tetra-Burst tried to compromise.

"Alright sir, but if he is making this up, I'll punish him with another drilling session." Starless agreed.

"Now, what's the story, general?"

"Yes sir!"

Hermes POV

We were looking for any remnants of the invaders in the coral reefs. We were about to leave towards the next area when Icefall noticed something strange.

"Icefall, where are you going?"

"Don't you see that light under the reefs? It's really strange to see that kind of light in here."

"It's probably the after effects of the glowing corals, leave it be. We still need to scout the other areas."

But Icefall ignored my words and swam towards the glowing lights. I tried to get him back here, but he was already too far away from hearing distance. Naturally I followed him into the reefs.

"Icefall, if we don't make it back here, I'm going to blame it on you if we get in serious trouble! Where are you!"

"Over here Hermes, you won't believe what I have found!" Icefall said.

I then followed his voice and found the portal I mentioned. It was hidden in a giant cave surrounded in corals. It was even big enough to fit the Vice-Admiral.

"Hermes, do you see the giant portal?" he rhetorically asked.

"Yes, I can see it too. Icefall, we need to report this. If this were to leak out, the pirates might use it to plunder treasures behind this portal."

I tried to contact the base, but something interfered with our radio communications.

"Damn it, I can't get through. Do you have any luck?"

"No, same here." Icefall answered.

"Must be the portal that's been running interference. What should we do now?"

"It would be best to return to base for now. We need to report it as soon as possible."

"We can't! If we leave this place, the portal might get found by the pirates, or worse yet, the invaders." He reasoned.

"You may be right, but we need to report it immediately, you know how General Starless is with late reports."

"Who cares about late reports now. I say to at least look what's behind it, then we return. Is that alright?" he proposed.

"No, we can't. Who knows what happens when we enter. We might not return here."

"It's a chance I'm willing to take. I'm going in. You can return if you want."

With that said, Icefall immediately swam through the portal.

"Icefall, wait! Damn it, I'm going to blame you when we don't return here!"

And then I followed him. The next thing we know, we got out of the portal and arrived into another abyss.

"Not much of a difference, don't you think?" Icefall asked.

"You're right. Let's go up to the surface. We might get a better sight."

So we swam towards the surface. But before we could reach it, we were almost hit by something.

"Hey look out!"

We evaded the projectile as it was launched into the air. We turned around and saw some kind of creature.

It was a machine-like whale, but armed with cannons in his mouth and his back. His mouth was covered with a teeth-like motif that looked creepy.

"What the hell is that thing? It looks like some kind of fish who got an accident with the dentist."

"Never mind that, since it's hostile, we need to take it down." I reasoned, and began to shoot towards te creature.

The creature swam in almost every direction and was hard to hit.

"Damn, why is that stupid whale so fast?!" I complained.

After a while, I was able to shoot it down when Icefall released his frozen breath attack. It sunk directly after getting hit.

"Hermes, when we get back, we need to report about this, right?"

"Of course, you dimwit! Everything we see here must be reported back. We can't keep it secret to the base." I retorted.

"Yeesh, you really ought to calm down. We still need to get a visual of the surface."

After the little shoot out, we then went up towards the surface and stood on the water.

We were surrounded by wreckages of those with damages that were still recent.

"More of these creatures? Something tells me this world got a huge infestation with those." I commented.

"Oi Hermes, do you hear it? It sounds like a battle is going on"

We also heard a battle, so we hid behind one of the wreckages and saw a sight we couldn't believe.

Girls water skating in the water with riggings and smoke pipes for ships, battling those whale creatures we encountered earlier (Some of them were even flying).

Third POV

"Alright, that's enough! All we heard is that you've got into portal and encountered some kind of creature, and now you're telling me girls are fighting those monsters. You're just making this up!" Starless yelled.

"With all due respect, sir, I'm telling the truth." Hermes countered.

"Starless, let the boy finish." Tetra-Burst defended him.

"Continue, general."

Hermes POV

"What the hell is with this scene! Why does it look like there are girls wearing equipment for a ship battling those monsters?"

"I don't know, but we should at least get visual evidence. If we at least show them to the boss, he might believe our story." Icefall said.

"You're right. At least we won't get our ass kicked without reason."

With that being said, I took my camera and took some shots of the battle. I noticed that it was almost ending since most of the creatures were retreating.

Afterwards we were about to leave when Icefall noticed something.

"Hermes, do you see that little fighter drone there?"

He pointed towards a flying drone that released a torpedo-like object before exploding and it felt straight towards a girl separated from what we could assume her fleet.

"Oh no, she'll get hit. I need to help her!"

"Don't do it, you stupid dragon, you'll blow our cover if you go to her!" I yelled, but again, he was gone before my words could reach him.

Before the torpedo could reach the girl, Icefall blocked it from her with his energy shields. But when the missile hit his shields, the impact was too strong that he was knocked out immediately.

"Icefall!"

I ran towards him and found him unconscious from the blast. Unfortunately, the girl was now aware of us.

"Ano, is he going to be alright?" she asked.

I looked at her and got a good look on her. Long brown hair with a feather ornament on her left side. A white sailor uniform with green accents equipped with a chimney torpedo launcher on her leg.

"What is your name?" I asked.

"Kisaragi, a destroyer of the 4th torpedo squadron." She answered.

Destroyer? Torpedo squadron? Where in hell did we got into here.

"Kisaragi! Are you there?!"

As I heard voices, I saw a fleet of more of these girls coming up this way.

'Crap! I need to go. If they see me, I'll get my ass fried.'

I then took Icefall on my back and began the submergence before Kisaragi tried to ask something.

"Ano, what is your name. I would like to thank you and your friend for saving me."

Even though it was stupid to say, I told her my name.

"Hermes, just call me general Hermes, and my friend's name is Icefall."

And with that, I dived back into the ocean and swam back to the portal and got back here as soon as possible.

Third POV

"And that's the story. If you don't believe me, take the memory card of my camera. All the evidence is in here." Hermes said determined.

He took out a card from his camera and gave it to the Rear-Admiral.

"We'll definitely take a look. If what you said isn't true, you're going to regret to be even in this troop." Starless threatened.

"Now, now, Starless. No need to go that way up. General Hermes, for now I suggest that you take rest in the barracks and wait for following orders." Tetra-Burst said.

"Yes sir!"

With that, both Tetra-Burst and Starless left the infirmary and headed towards the control rooms.

"Sir, you don't actually believe that crap right now? He is obviously lying, they must have gotten stuck in some hole in the area and he tried to come up with a random story to get out of trouble." Starless said.

"You're getting too cynical, my friend. You've got to be more open minded when it comes to these things. Besides, if he actually lied to us, why would he even give us his memory card to show us something?" Tetra-Burst answered.

As they were talking, they walked into to control room. They took the memory card in swiped it in. When the screen was done, it showed the girls Hermes was talking about fighting the creatures they encountered.

"Unbelievable! Who knew that such a world existed besides the earth." The Rear-Admiral admired.

"To think he actually spoke the truth. I really need to cut the cynicism."

As they watched more images, the alarm was sounding off. The rooms were turning red, which indicated that it's a major emergency.

"Sir Tetra-Burst, we've got report of unknown units surfacing from the coral reef area! They are wreaking havoc as we speak!" a sailor reported through the intercom.

"Sir, when they say the coral reefs, do you think…"

"Perhaps. But no matter the threat, we must deal with it! Starless, contact the available men in the fleet and send them towards the coral reefs. If my suspicions are correct, we may need all the men we have." Tetra-Burst commanded.

"Yes sir!"

Author Notes.

This is it for the first chapter. It might sound a bit rushed or plot holed, but I'm still learning. I tried to stay with the lores for most of the units, but it might get a little off since some of them don't have lores. Also updates might be irregular due to procrastination or school (And that the anime is still continuing). I'm also looking for a beta. Hope you review soon. Criticism is welcome, just don't flame it.
