[5 weeks later]

We are going steady now with more ship girls and more profit coming in. What we need is a ground force which is T-dolls. I then remembered about those T-dolls I saw from that day. We earned about almost 2K dollars a day. Meaning this is just the downhill part of the journey. Now i need to get the attention.

"Okay i'm off!" I said to the ships. They waved bye at me as I flew in a helicopter drone to a meeting place I set up for those T-dolls and I. I then got off of the helicopter and met only M4A1 there.

"So,I suppose I'll take the offer. I say to her"

"Took you long enough." M4A1 said to me.

"Yeah i know, but look…" there was some silence. I cannot expose the sirens after what they went through.

"The military base was all me… I wanted revenge for what they did, which was to kick me out because i was too good for them." I said to her.

"So...How did you get all that fancy tech then?" She asked me.

"Stole it from a uhhh whats their name?" I tried to lie but she then cut me off.

"Alright enough. I know it wasn't all you. You were with an advanced faction known as sirens. They haven't been trouble to us yet." she explained.

"How did you know?" I asked her.

"Easy, Sangvis ferri has control of high tech weapons but they are not this advanced as sirens. We went into an alliance with Azur lane." she said to me.

"Then why wasn't I notified?" I asked.

"Because it was just now." she responded as i got a notification saying G&K PMC has joined forces with us.

"Oh, okay then so this meeting was pointless?" I asked her.

"No, I got to meet our new commander so that's good. The others would love to meet you too."

"The others?" I asked her.

"Yeah, more T-dolls are in production as we speak." I then radioed the base.

"Get me the chopper I'm going back." i say.

"Copy that on its way, commander," Enterprise said. After waiting for about an hour the helicopter finally made it to us. Me and M4 got into the chopper and we flew back to the base.

"Now, Commander, we have new assignments that a small PMC named "Crimson scorpion" is out on the hunt for us." M4 said to me.

"Wait why? I just got started. And all of a sudden some random PMC's want to destroy us?"

"Well now we are on the board as "Mercenaries" there are other mercs and PMC's that want to eradicate us too" M4 explained.

"Oh this is just bullshit." I say to myself.

"As much of a load this is you can take care of it too you know" M4 said to me.

"Yeah, i know… I guess its a perk of being a commander i guess, Working hard to keep everything secure." i say to myself.

"Exactly, And the fact that you're new to this. Will you need any help?" M4 asked. That's when i knew i might need help but i think i got this.

"I think i got it. If anything i'll let you know. But thank you." I told her. The helicopter was coming down and I opened the doors. We both got out of the chopper and it went to park in the base. There I saw many girls doing their own thing. I went to my office and went to my locker getting my EBR 2929 and the railgun revolver. I then was getting prepared for a mission.

"Hmm. If i'm going to do this, I am going to need backup." I then decided to call in a T-doll. I didn't know who to call so I took a look at the chart.

"Okay, Right now at the moment...Only some AR's and handguns?" It was reasonable because the rest of the T-dolls are still in production.

"Maybe it is best to go alone. I do not want to risk anything else." I said to myself. I then went to the main area where I called a helicopter drone.

"Commander, where are you going?" Enterprise asked.

"To a mission. I gotta eliminate a small PMC group called Crimson scorpion." I told her.

"Let me come, You may need the extra support." She suggested.

"No, i must do this alone. Stay here and watch over the base." I ordered her.

"Defiant, are you Ki11?" She asked.

"Huh? It's because it seems risky so I don't want to take a gamble yet." I told her.

"Master, You may be a trout so i recommend you take someone with miss enterprise." I grunted a little bit.

"Fine, Come enterprise." I said. She then came on the helicopter with me. I closed the doors and the helicopter finally took off. It was heading towards a rural area. I then cocked my EBR 2020 making sure its energy rounds are ready. I then checked the bullets of my revolver after that I put it away in my holster. The helicopter was then setting down as me and enterprise got off of the helicopter.

"Alright enterprise, this is a rural area so watch your six" i told her. She nodded in response and sent out a plane for scouting.

"Hold, Sniper, get down!" I whispered aggressively. We both got down fast. I then switched to sniper mode on my EBR 2020. I tried to look for him and I got him in my sights.

"Got you now mother-" The sniper then shot at us. I then rolled over to the left. Enterprise stayed still.

"Enty! Move!" i yelled. I got up and then a bullet an inch from hitting my head. I switched to assault mode and started to shoot back at him. Causing him to move. I helped enterprise up.

"Your planes! Use them!" she nodded in response and sent them out some planes doing strafing runs on the sniper. Instead he took them out quickly.

"Damn that is good accuracy." i said in amusement. I then switched back to sniper mode and started to shoot. I almost got him from the range.

"Damn that was close." I then was on the last bullet. I then shot my sniper and then got him in the leg. We went up towards the sniper and it turns out it was a girl instead of a guy. Her leg got shot and she was bleeding. She had red hair and a jacket, her eyes were blue and her sniper was an orsis T-5000. Some energy rounds were recharged and ready to shoot. I then got my weapon and aimed it at her.

"Wait…" she said to me.

"I surrender...I'll serve you...just spare me." This got me into a decision. Of course we need more soldiers so I accepted it.

"Fine. State your name." I ordered her.

"T-5000, Top sniper in the crimson scorpion PMC's. Ugh i knew it was a bad idea my hair stood out for being a sniper." she told me.

"Actually you were well hidden. What actually stood out was the glint from your scope." she groaned in pain. I got my medkit and patched her up.

"Thanks commander?..." She was asking for my name.

"Ki11, Commander of the Rising Dawn mercenaries." I introduced myself.

"Enterprise, Stay here and watch over her. If so far she tries anything, kill her." i ordered. She nodded in response. I then was moving up. As I walked I saw a big building. I could only assume it was their main base.

"Wow, they were not kidding when they said they were small." I said to myself. I then aimed in my to notice more girl soldiers i assumed they were tactical dolls.

"Damn it, I need to wound them." I say to myself. One of the T-dolls had a Karabiner 98K. She was wearing a black and grey dress but her cap had a german iron cross. Her left sleeve had a regular cross as well. And her eyes were a light-ish red. The other girl had a black clothing too but she was holding an AK-15. She looked rather stern and her hair was grey as so were her eyes. I could tell she would be a pain to deal with. I aimed my scope at Ak-15 and got ready to shoot her purposefully not hitting her. The both started to shoot back at me. I could hear them in the distance.

"Warn the others, I got this garbage here." Ak-15 said to Kar98K. She nodded and ran towards the building. I tried to wound Kar98K but she dodged the bullet. I switched my EBR2020 to Assault mode and started to shoot at AK-15. She then went into anger and started to shoot more rounds i got into cover.

"Just die already insect." she said. I mounted on the wall and started to fire at her. I could[- hear my energy rounds getting lower and lower. I then switched to sniper mode and tried to wound AK-15 with my last energy bullet but no luck. That was the end for me. AK-15 walked closer and closer to me.

"End of your line." she said as she aimed her gun at me. Then she got shot in the leg.

"GAH!" she yelled in pain as she fell on the floor trying to grab her gun. I kicked it away and let my EBR2020 charge the energy rounds.

"Look, im not going to kill you. Join us at Rising Dawn and you can live a better life." i negotiated with her.

"And if i don't?" she asked. Still angrily.

"You'll live in dishonor and shame. So what's it going to be?" I asked her. More T-dolls came out one holding an Ak-12 and the other holding an AN-94. Ak-12 looked rather calm as An-94 looked determined. I aimed my revolver at them.

"It's now or never AK-15," I said to her. She sighed in response and asked me for help to get her up. I did so.

"Stand down" she ordered. This left the T-dolls confused.

"We are going to join him instead." AK-15 then stood on her own.

"But why? My eyes may be closed but even I could see this is a bad idea." AK-12 said. An-94 then lowered her gun.

"Orders are orders AK-12 i heard the commander was going to replace us with real soldiers because we are not enough for him." AN-94 said to her.

"See? AN-94 understands, Get the others we are leaving. And kill the commander too." AK-15 ordered.

"Yes ma'am." An-94 responded as she went back. Moments after I heard a gunshot and she came out with more T-dolls including Kar98K and a tiny splatter of blood on her face.

"Let's head out." I then carriedAK-15.

"Sorry to wound you but we have medics back at the base. We'll get you patched up soon." I told her as we made our way to the helicopter. Enterprise was waiting for us at the landing zone with T-5000. They opened the doors and we all got in. Flying away we were going back to the base.

"So..your commander what was he like?" I asked Ak-15.

"Rude, perverted and others I don't want to say. He demoted Ak-12 from leader to now second in command and now here I am as the leader. He then got us and started a small group called Crimson Scorpion where we were now PMC's. As you could tell it was kind of lonely as we would not get visitors often. We were told to kill all those who came by...even women and children." she looked down.

"Well, look on the bright side, you work for me. We have lots of food, comfy places to rest, and it is secured well enough just as long as you fight for us you have nothing to worry about." i reassured her. She smiled in response.

"Thanks" she responded. After waiting about an hour we finally made it back to the base. Now we got more T-dolls on our side, we are going steadily. And thanks to the production of other T-dolls and ships we are multiplying fast. I then checked the charts in my office and we are in the top 50 on the board of biggest mercenaries yet.

"Heh, at this rate they might as well give up...it will be no use." I say to myself. It was then I received a call from M4A1.

"Yeah?"

"Commander, Sangvis ferri are reported about 60 miles north of here." she reported.

"Alright, Who is sangvis ferri?" i asked.

"Sangvis ferri are A.I's possessed with rogue T-dolls capable of destroying an entire fleet." M4 explained about the butterfly incident. With Lyco and others. The name Lyco was familiar. Very familiar to be exact.

"Alright, I'm going in alone. I got this." I said as I got the helicopter ready. I then got in and went to the place. Everyone was waving bye and I did the same to them. About an hour of the helicopter ride it was then shot. And spinning out of control.

"Shit! Brace for impact!" I yelled to myself. The helicopter then crashed and all I saw was black.
