6060B. Henchforth The Yang Protocol on now created.

"What are we doing here again Commander?" Bataan asked turning her head towards her Admiral who was currently cursing the ocean waters in between biles of vomit. She wondered how the Navy actually accepting an Army Personnel to command them was beyond her. Especially when said Army Personnel is easily seasick.

They were currently at the front deck of the BRP Ramon Alcaraz one of the few active Corvettes of the PH Navy currently anchored at one of the many islets of Batanes at the tip of Luzon closes to international waters. Along with them were the Sub Chasers Negros Oriental, Negros Occidental and Bohol and the Battleships Yang!Iowa and Hiei. All of them currently in the waters patrolling near the Corvette.

"US is giving us shipgirls that we badly need at bases most especially with the Large Scale Summer Operations are just around the corner. Granted that there are conditions to it attach."

"And those conditions are?" She asked with peek curiosity. She wasn't surprise that the US always have string attach to their deals.

"Our Navy didn't say anything. Says it above my pay." He shrug never bother about such dealings. It came with the job after all, he learned not to question stuff that might bit him in the ass later on but what else was new.

"So who are we getting anyway?"

"Two CVs and Six Repair Ships." That got the Fil-Am Carrier's attention.

"CVs? Are you sure?"

"Two Essex Class Carriers CV-47 USS Philippine Sea and CV-32 USS Leyte along with Six Luzon Class Repair Ships." He recalled from yesterday's fax he got about the ships that are about to arrive. "To be honest with us having two more CVs we could actually improve our Air Power during Assault Operations."

"Why can't we just meet them when they arrive at base? Why the need to go out here in the first place?"

"It's been a while since we last sortied and its a good chance to see what Yang!Iowa can do." the Admiral explained breathing deeply to lessen the nausea that was coming back in full force. Just then the PA systems and alarms came to life.

[Admiral we need you in the bridge now.]

"Welp. Looks like we're about to get some action soon. Bataan get your rigging and gather the girls."

"Yes Commander." With that they went their separate ways.

"Commander on Deck!" a sailor announce as Admiral Knight entered the Bridge catching everyone's attention.

"At ease." Knight said calmly allowing the men and women to return to their post. "Captain what's the situation?"

"Sir, we just receive and SOS from the Fleet that we are suppose to meet. They are being attack by the Abyssals as we speak."

"Where are they now?"

"5 miles out sir."

"Bataan" Knight called out on the Com Lines connected directly towards the Girls out at sea.

"Yes Commander?"

"Send out your Planes ahead then follow suit along with Hiei and YangIowa, have the Sub Chaser pull back to us now."

"Very well Commander."

"Go."

Yang or was it Iowa? or as her admiral decided YangIowa was excited to say the least. It was the first time since she was summoned that she would be able to fight. Despite the conflicting and mixed memories within her there was one thing in common they share. Her thirst for battle.

Just thinking about firing her cannons at the enemy brought a manic grin on her face.

"YangIowa do you copy?" Her comms echoed out the familiar voice of her commander.

"Yeah I'm here Boss man. What's up?"

"There are multiple Allied Abyssals along with Friendly ShipGirls. Going to mark them now. So please pay attention to your IFF."

"Got it Boss man!"

"Ok you two the party's here. Fire at will!" Bataan bark as she launch another wave of Fighters. Hiei and Yang!Iowa complied firing their main cannons onto the oncoming hords of abyssals.

The explosions as the shells found their targets sent an excelerating feeling down Yang! Iowa's spine. But her joy died an early death as a retaliation strike came soon after. Barely missing her head... Her hair was another story.

A blond strand fell.

Purple turned Red.

Admiral Knight was speechless. He didn't know what to say as red dots that numbered in the hundreds rapidly disappear. It didn't help that a certain blond battleship's fire power was increasing by the second.

He should have expected this knowing where she came from.

"Captain"

"Yes Commander?"

"I didn't know too much Dakka exist"

"Want a drink?"

"I usually don't drink but I'm making an exception"
