Oarai Girls Academy schoolship Zuikaku
Miho was in her bedroom, located aboard the Zuikaku, an aircraft carrier used as a floating city, and was writing in her diary.
Tomorrow the final of the Sensha-do tournament will take place, where we will face the Kuromorimine school, the school in which I once played, and which includes my sister, Maho.
She sighed, then resumed writing.
The challenge is extremely difficult... Kuromorimine has outnumbers us far in exess. Futher, many of them outgun us by huge margins. Moreover it is practically unbeaten, in the last ten years she has won all the tournaments minus one, won by the Pravda school. This is because, to save the life of some of my teammates, I left the flag tank unattended, which was eliminated by Pravda forces taking advantage of the lull, resulting in our defeat. It happened last year, then I left Kuromorimine and I came to Oarai.
She sighed.
Damn it, I'm so tense ... Tomorrow will be a very important match, and we cannot afford to lose it. In case of defeat, in fact, Oarai will be closed down. And I cannot allow this, too many people rely on me: Saori, Isuzu, Yukari and the others ... No, I cannot let them down.
I absolutely cannot let anyone down.
Removing her violin she began to play some tunes before setting it down and removed her laptop from its location. Flipping through the many internet sites, she found one Reddit thread in particular:
Finals: Oarai victory is most likely
It continued on to narrate many events that Miho was far familiar with, and many references to fictional wars like the ones in Halo, real world ones like the Vietnam War, and finishing with the line;
No matter how much they're outclassed, Miho Nishizumi is not one to accept defeat. She will instead resist, resist until either she has victory or loses and in doing so, taking down the entire Kuromorimine team with her.
"Hmmm," she hummed to herself.
That was when she heard the clicking of the door. Turning around, she saw a black figure, an AR-15 pointed at her. Reacting instantly, she pulled an MA37 from the wall, and let off a three-round burst. It missed the target, but was enough for her to take cover beneath an upturned table that had been upset when she had grabbed the rifle. The assassin then simply moved up towards her, as she emptied her entire magazine of 7,62mm NATO rounds at his direction, until the bolt clicked empty. Before she could reload, the entire thirty-round magazine of 5,56mm emptied as the AR barked until it was empty.
Only then did the murderer lower his weapon, smiling happily as Miho's body collapsed on the floor.
Enjoy eternal peace ... Little bastard!
He thought, licking his lips.
Hours 0:30
Nishizumi family home
Damn ... Where has Erika gone? She's been out for over an hour and she's not back yet ...
Maho thought to herself, worried.
Suddenly someone rang the bell.
"Who is it?"
"I!"
"It was time for you to arrive ... Now I'll open the door for you."
That said, she pressed a button, which opened the gates of Nishizumi Estate.
After Erika had entered and placed her jacket on the chair, Maho broke the silence.
"Can you explain to me where you ended up? It is dangerous to go around alone at this time of night!"
"I was not sleepy, okay? So I decided to take a walk. "
"All right, but now you're going to bed. Tomorrow we will have to be in good shape for the match against Ooarai. "
"We already have the victory in our pocket!" The blonde retorted, waving a hand carelessly.
"Do not be sure ... They defeated Pravda and Saunders, thanks to Miho. Anzio does not count, that team is very scarce. "
"Sure. But I doubt it," said Erika.
"Just imagine her face when the Maus arrives."
"Miho's not an ordinary commander. She's talented, like Cole or Terrence Hood. If there's a Maus she'll find a way to beat it in ten minutes."
"Sure. I've known her for long enough," Erika said, sipping her tea.
"Changing the subject ... Is your mother in bed?"
"Of course ... Careful not to make noise while you reach the guest room."
"Ok ... And thanks for the hospitality."
"Just imagine, you're still my deputy."
Erika nodded, before sipping her tea in silence. Removing her cellphone, she looked at the file that she'd just received.
CIA, Operation Kunamoto, it began.
Primary initiative: protect Miho Nishizumi from potential threats.
Finishing her tea, she went to the guest room.
Tomorrow's going to be a long day, she thought.
But not for the reasons she expected.
A/N:
Thing is, when you look at it, it seems a bit short, huh?
Anyways, to the primary topic, this story is not mine. This is originally Girls Und Panzer: Hope Dies by ShinHyuga90. All credit for the original story goes to him. What I did was to tweak the plot a bit and clean up the story.
Anyways.
Se you all soon!
