Georgia was riding in the subway. The drive from Norfolk through Richmond was tumultuous at best, It would've been significantly easier to just sail up the Potomac river. Though that would have probably set off a lot of fail safes with her radar signature. A warship sailing towards DC that would be something.
=======================
"What is Wisconsin ordering us to do?" Walker asks
"I don't fully know she was just having me shut the bleed valves for the steam system." A volunteer says
Smoke starts to leak out of the aft funnel.
"NO! Absolutely not!" Walker shouts realizing Wisconsin is trying to get underway.
A few seconds later Wisconsin felt her anchors drop into the water below and her steam bleed valves open back up.
"Damn fun police." Wisconsin mutters
==========================================
The sound of a metal detector dying is heard as Georgia tries to get into the Air and Space Smithsonian.
Security was on her in a second as several guns were pointed at her.
"Hands up!"
"Turn around!"
Georgia obliged knowing if they shot at her they would need to close the museum and that would be really annoying.
==========================
Prinz Eugen was walking around the docks. The place had transformed magnificently, with the workers delivering materials and moving cranes.
CRASH
Eugen looks over to see the Grand old lady had bumped into and knocked over a forklift.
"Hey! I can't lose my forklift certification, you can just knock it over!" The operator shouts.
"Warspite?" Eugen aks
"Ah, the luck vampire," Warspite says looking at the Hipper class.
"W-who came up with that nickname!" Prinz Eugen shouts blushing
"A smart British man, that's who. Though I am glad to see you're still around too." Warspite says closing the distance before patting the Cruisers head.
"How did you survive?" Prinz Eugen asks
"I am too stubborn to kill. Though quite a few of us are like that I am willing to bet." Warspite says
The german cruiser nods thinking of several ship spirits that are probably just around.
"I mean look at Monitor, that isn't even her hull yet there she is," Warspite says
Prinz snorts thinking about how out of all ships to do something like that it would be an American.
"Hornet?" Enterprise says having snuck up on the two other ship girls.
Warspite remains unsurprised while Eugen is shocked by the stealthy capability of the Grey Ghost.
"Oh, CV-8 and CV-12?" Warspite says
"Yeah her body may have been different however the spirit was the same," Enterprise says
"That makes sense," Eugen says
==================================
Georgia was sitting inside of an interrogation room at the DC police department while Secret and the capital police were arguing over jurisdiction.
The light on the ceiling of the dimly lit room was flickering creating a weird effect where the one-way mirror glowed a bit from the light behind.
"If I said I was a parahuman summoned here by the president himself would that help?" Georgia asks out loud to no one in particular.
Her modernized information warfare center picked up a large influx in radio traffic causing Georgia to smile. Maybe she would get to see the museum, vip tour of the Smithsonian might be a possibility after all.
10 minutes later the door to the room opens up and what could only be described as the men in black walk in.
"BB-70?" The man on the left asks.
"Yes? Though like this I go by Georgia." The ship girl responds.
"We know your identity is probably the most known secret on the east coast." The man on the right says.

"I mean what are they going to do to me? Small Arms does nothing and I'll shrug off most explosives in small quantities." Georgia says
"If you could follow us please." The agent on the right says.
Georgia obliges following the two men through the crowded police station drawing hushed whispers from everyone in the department.
"Why are we going to the basement?" Georgia asks as the follows the two men down a set of stairs.
"Well, to get to the tunnels of course. Outside is full of fans and journalists." Agent R says
"Did it leak that quickly?" Georgia asks slightly surprised by the lack of information security.
"It did, It makes it rather difficult to organize a hotel for you now as well." Agent L says
"So, you get the privilege of staying in a guest room at the white house." Agent R says
"Can you give me your names so I can stop calling you Agent Right and Left in my head?" Georgia asks
"You can call me Agent Smith."
"I am Agent Anderson."
"Hey, this is going to sound weird. Did you by chance drive an ice cream truck several times faster than it should've been able to go?" Anderson asks
"Maybe?" Georgia says
"Yeah, an abandoned ice cream truck at a subway entrance raised some flags. It's good to clear that." Smith echos.
The sound of brakes screeching can be heard echoing down
Anderson holds out his arm to stop everyone.
A roar is heard coming closer in the tunnel as it starts to light up in front of them showing a gap. A second later a subway train blows by them.
=========================================
In the Oval office. The most powerful man in the free world was staring at a bookshelf. On it was a case that had a service flag and several awards Medal of Honor, Bronze Star Medal, Purple Heart, Presidential Unit Citation, American Defense Service Medal, American Campaign Medal, Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal, World War II Victory Medal, Philippine Liberation Medal.
Besides that case was a second much smaller one which had two metals in the case A Vietnam service medal and a Purple Heart.
President Evan was the first native American president of the United States. His win came as a surprise to everyone, no one ever expected a third party to win the election. Especially with that much of a landslide. In truth, he almost didn't win the Electoral College but when he had won the popular vote by over 150 million votes they did a "recounting" which had him win the Electoral College by 2 votes instead of losing by 20.
"Sir, she is on her way here."
"Right! This is going to be exciting." Evan says with a smile.
