Carrier Group Vikramaditya , Somewhere in Arabian sea

Captain Danish had never seen something like this before.

A fog of some sort . Like the Hollywood movies , Pitch black and The Mist , combined.

Those supposed Sakura Empire Carrier group have came beyond that veil , as per Soryuu information.

Command had given them permission to enter the veil and find out more about attackers.

It's the first time Carrier Group Vikramaditya sail out for a long journey and it won't be the last time she would sail.

All ahead , Godspeed.

United Nation Security Council

In the International stage though, the United Nations Security Council had convened for an emergency meeting about this issue. This time, both India and Pakistan, were on the Council as Non-Permamanent members. Pakistan was the loudest in demanding that the Veil be bought under the jurisdiction of the UN. This was seconded by China, who asked that the "exploration" should be spearheaded by the People's Liberation Army Navy and the Pakistani Navy.

In reply, the Indian Diplomat simply replied, "Hell no. That Veil is firmly in Indian waters , not in any of the disputed regions. Furthermore, it would be a cold day in hell before India or her people will just allow Foreign military personnel to set even a foot in Indian territory . So I suggest none of the country's present in this meeting try any stunts. Or misadventures. It won't be tolerated."

When it came to the vote, the United States, Russia, Great Britain, and France voted against the joint resolution of Pakistan and China. This was combined with the remaining 8 non-permanent members also voting against this resolution. Ultimately, it was decided that, if the situation in the other side of the Veil turned into a situation like the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan, only then would an International Taskforce be sent in.

Somewhere in Midway

Abhishek Khatri opened his eyes to find himself snuggled against something soft.

He opened his eyes , only to find himself snuggled against a pretty blonde girl right between her...

He got up suddenly , blood gushing on his face.

How the hell did he ended up here.

What the hell is going on.

That awoken her blonde companion.

" Thank God you...you're awake." The blonde beside her exclaimed , tears in her face " I...I almost lost you.."

She hugged him tightly.

Abhishek didn't mind a pretty girl like her to hug him. But why is she hugging him. He never met her .

" What...Why are you crying...What's going on.."

Abhishek was confused.

" We all missed you...I missed you...Abhi.." She enquired , still crying on her shoulder.

Wait...Abhi..

Only his crewmate and his family know his petname.

How the hell she knew that.

" Wait...who are you..."

The girl released her hug on him and stared into his eyes.

" Oh...I didn't realised that you are unaware of what's going on Abhi..." She put her hands on his shoulder , staring deep in his eyes. " Look it's hard to explain but I am...your Home Base , INS Viraat at your service "

" Wait...WHAT ????..."
