A/N: Well here we are again, a day later. I really didn't think I would have this ready so quickly, but I wanted to roll with this, and I really, really like how it turned out.

I still need to make dinner, and want to get more work done on my model of the IJN Kinu, but I'll give this to you before I head off for that.

This pairing and prompt was suggested by Killroy122496, and I say thanks for the assistance with it.

Next, is the Admiral and Haruna, which is one of my own choices.

One thing I forgot to mention, is most of these girls are in their Kai Ni form. And yes, I have finally figured out how to play Kancolle. Kinda. Still learning it all.

Captive

"It's always so peaceful when all the girls are away. Peaceful, but lonely." Admiral Dixon mused in his mind as he leaned back in his desk chair.

The base was deserted, all the girls were out to sea on sorties or expeditions for resources, and he was left alone.

Well…him, and the JGSDF members to man the shore batteries in case of an Abyssal attack on the base.

Add into that the wing of the JASDF that was on standby for if something went wrong, he felt fairly at ease with all the girls out.

Though today would be…problematic for him, to say the least.

Stretching in his seat, he stood, wandering around to work the kinks out of his back from sitting at the desk for so long.

Peering out the open window, he smiled at the bright sunshine reflecting off the water, not a cloud anywhere in the perfect blue sky.

"I'm definitely going to need to take the Shadow out for a ride today." he thought, crossing his arms over his chest.

And then the world around him went black.

He woke up slowly, the world around him foggy and hazy in his unsteady eyes, the area slightly damp.

But he was conscious enough to know he was locked in a prison cell…somewhere.

"What in the hell happened?" Andrew asked quietly, sitting up and putting a hand to his head.

Feeling around, he winced at the fair-sized goose egg on the back of his head, obviously the result that he had been knocked out and taken somewhere.

"Ah, you're awake." a feminine voice, seemingly from everywhere said, the sound sweet, yet a little grating.

"Just where am I?" he asked, standing up and wobbling around slightly "And who are you?"

"So, it appears they needed to use force to bring you here. They'll be dealt with." the woman said from the small peephole on the other side of the thick steel door.

The door swung open with a rusty creak, and a woman walked in.

This woman had an appearance like no other he had met…which wasn't always a good thing.

Obviously, she had good physical attributes, which any man would've noticed.

Long, slender legs (accentuated by black stilettos), a slim build, (shown off with a flowing white dress) and a generous breast that was threatening to break out of her dress.

It all kinda contrasted with the stark white skin, glowing red eyes, visible veins in her legs and arms, the two horns on her head, and black, stabby nails that could kill a man in a swipe, oh, and the collection of spikes(?) around her neck.

Yeah, the cons outweighed the pros by a country mile.

"I know who you are. Your picture has crossed my desk," Andrew whispered, horror in his eyes "You're the Midway Princess."

"Correct. And you're Admiral Andrew Dixon. From Canada." she chuckled, the hint of a smile peeking out from her collar.

"What do you want with me?" he questioned, standing rigid and forming is face into a trademark frown.

He refused to be seen as weak in front of the enemy.

"To meet you. Mostly." the Princess replied, a faint flush that was undetectable to the human eye appearing on her cheeks.

"To meet me." Andrew deadpanned, his expression and stance unchanging "You had me kidnapped, just so you could meet me?"

If he wasn't here, he wouldn't have believed what was happening in front of him.

The Midway Princess, one of the most powerful Abyssals in the pacific, was toeing the ground and looking down, as if she was shameful.

"You're the enemy commander." she replied after a moment, meeting his eye and stopping her fidgeting "I have great respect for someone who is as skillful and resourceful as you."

"That, and you think he's cute." a voice in her head sing-songed to her, but she squashed that.

"You've managed to hold your own with limited supplies and even deal several blows to Abyssal forces. I wanted to meet the man who made that possible." she continued, watching his reaction carefully.

She could tell he was surprised by the unexpected praise, the way his stance softened just a bit.

"Thank you for the kind words, and for not binding me, but don't expect me to give up any allied secrets to the enemy. You'd need to torture me for that." he chuckled lightly, letting his features soften.

"This isn't an interrogation Admiral. Just a friendly chat." she informed him, smiling as he relaxed in front of her "As for not binding you, you're a smart man. You know you can't take an Abyssal in combat."

"I know that." he mused, his cheeks flushing lightly.

"Ohhh red is a good colour on you Admiral. A very good colour." the Princess thought, licking her lips unconsciously.

"So, you said you just wanted to…talk? What about?" Andrew asked, snapping her from her musings.

"I wanna know what's under that uniform Admiral, maybe you could show me?" she thought, this time, flushing in front of the officer and looking down.

"Ho-how about your family. Are they safe?" she asked, covering her stutter well.

But not well enough as Andrew noticed it but chose not to comment.

"Yeah. Yeah, they're safe." he said quietly, chuckling weakly "Gramps would've not been happy had something happened to me over here.

"My parents are out there too, but I know they're safe. Europe is a little better off than Japan."

"You're close to your grandfather then?" she asked, taking a step towards him.

"You can thank him for me being here. He's the reason I joined the military. He served aboard HMCS Huron during the Korean Conflict. Chief Engineer. I wanted to follow in his steps, but I became an Engineering Officer." Andrew replied, flashing her a small smile.

"I guess I know who to send a thank you card to when I get the chance!" Midway thought with a small blush as her eyes glazed slightly over to a daydream.

"Ms. Midway? Are you alright?" he asked, looking at her in slight concern.

"Oh yes Admiral. I'm alright. How about you tell me more about yourself?" she questioned, startling slightly as he almost caught her.

"Alright," Andrew said, before saying "But let's keep this fair. I tell you something, and you tell me something about yourself. No troop talk though, deal?"

He thrust a hand forward, and she took it, and was very surprised when he raised it to his lips, brushing a gentle kiss over her knuckles.

"Good. Mmm…something about me…oh, well I was always interested in music. I played piano when I was younger and picked it back up a few years ago." he said with a smile as he caught the hint of a blush on her cheeks.

They talked for a long time, without a watch or a window, Andrew had no idea what time it was when he got there or what time it was now.

"I suspect our time is nearly at an end Admiral." Midway said with some resignation present as she stood from her chair, prompting Andrew to do the same.

The pair had gotten closer during their chat, smiling and laughing like good friends, even though they were enemies of each other.

"Oh? What gives you that impression?" he queried, slightly confused.

"I may have had my Wo-class leave a note when she took you…and my sonar indicates a large amount of contacts heading towards us.

"I still want to face you in battle Admiral, and whoever wins will take the other prisoner, abiding by all rules of the Geneva Convention, of course." Midway said with a small smile as the sound of gunfire permeated the room.

"Looks like my girls are here." Andrew stated with a resigned smile "I had a lovely time. If you want to meet again though, send me a letter rather than a knockout. I'll keep the secret from them."

"I would love that…Andrew." Midway sighed, looking into his blue eyes.

A particularly severe explosion shook the room, causing both occupants to stumble and fall.

Luckily, the Princess had her fall broken by the other person in the room, which happened to be Andrew.

Their lips connected when they hit the ground, both of them closing their eyes in bliss, savoring the moment of contact between the other.

"Teitoku! What are you doing?! Now is not the time to fraternize with the enemy desu!" Kongou screamed when the door opened.

"Looks like we have some voyeurs," Midway chuckled lightly "Let's do this again."

She raked her nails up his uniform jacket and gave him a peck on the lips before vanishing in front of him seemingly into thin air.

In the doorway was Kongou, Nagato, and Haruna, all looking a mixture between angry, confused, and terribly worried.

"Ah girls, glad you're here. Thanks for the rescue." Andrew said, getting up and dusting himself off, placing his cap on his head.

"You're not hurt, are you Admiral?" Nagato asked, looking him over.

"No. Perfectly fine, but still, you arrived in time. Excellent work." he replied, flashing them a smile "Shall we return to base?"

The trio nodded and headed out.

"Admiral, you have some explaining to do when we get back." Nagato muttered, hanging back from the group as the headed out of the base.

"I'm aware." Andrew stated, fixing his hat.

"And to answer questions as to why you were kissing an Abyssal Princess." Nagato told him, walking on ahead.

"Ah crap." Andrew thought, stuffing his hands in his pockets as he kept walking.

Though, a secret romance did sound pretty awesome.

He could hardly wait until Midway contacted him to meet again.

This time, somewhere nicer than a prison cell hopefully.
