Warehouse 13/Strike Witches

Baton Rouge

USS KIDD

July 4th

"Welcome everyone to the annual 4th of July celebration here at the USS KIDD Museum. Before we begin, I would like to thank the men and women of Red Jacket Firearms for helping make this re-enactment of the Battle of Okinawa more authentic. I also want to thank..." John sighed. It was the same thing as always at these ceremonies. Around him where old veterans of WW2, Korea, Vietnam, and other conflicts. Around him where the sweaty bystanders waiting for the show to begin. John sighed.

"Just get this show over so I can wait in a line to get a autograph from Will" John thought. While he wanted to watch the show, John was more interested in the "Sons of Guns" cast on the area getting the equipment up.

"..And so you have it, the service history of the KIDD. In just a minuet, the show will being" The announcer said as he walked off.

"Finally" John thought as he sipped his cola. Looking at the KIDD, he wondered what role the ship would have played in the amine "Strike Witches".

"Probably just a nondescript destroyer" John thought as he heard the drone of the aircraft. Everyone waited in anticipation as the Aircraft began there flyby. The guns on the Kidd erupted as the mock battle commenced. John was impressed, he never thought he would see a mock battle outside of paintball.

"Sad to think those are not what the real guns sound like" John's father said.

"Close enough" John responded. The show went on for a couple of minutes. All of a sudden, a bright light began to appear above the destroyer.

"Is this part of the show?" John asked.

"No idea" John's father said. The father then looked at John.

"John...why are you glowing?" His father cried as he stepped back.

"I...I have no ide..." John did not finish for he had vanished. John's father looked at the bright ball above the destroyer. It began to make a humanoid shape. What was particular of it was that the shape had animal ears and a small tail. The figure also seemed to have strange Long legs. Te blight figure then exploded, blinding everyone in the area. When the flash was gone, a girl with dog ears, a dog tail, a Machine gun, a pair of strange boots on her legs, and a sailor fuka. The girl was wearing no skirt to cover the blue swimsuit she wore under her sailor fuka.. The show kept going on, with the propane guns still firing. Out of fear, the girl began firing her weapon at the oncoming aircraft. She downed two before realizing they where no threats.

"I am sorry...I...I did not know" She said as she began to become sleepy. All of a sudden, the girl fell asleep. Her ears and tail reentered her. As she fell, the strange contraptions on her legs fell off. She hit the water with a loud splash. Many police and rescue boats began to search the water for the downed airmen and the girl. They fished the airmen and girl out, as well as the girls weapon and leg contraptions.

"Where did you come form" Will asked as he looked at the Japanese Girl.

"I Think a better question is why is she not wearing any pants" Kriss said.

"A better question how she could carny and fire a Japanese Type 99 Cannon" Flem said pointing to the cannon. Will walked to the cannon and looked at it.

"In all my years, I have never seen such a perfect example of Type 99." Will said studying the weapon.

"Even the one we rebuilt behind your back?" Kris asked.

"Even that one" Will said. The mystery of the Japanese girl, and the disappearance of John would catch the eye of Warehouse 13.
