OKINAWA, RYUKYUS ISLANDS SEA

JULY 30TH

4:00 PM

As the late afternoon hours approached, several curtains of black smoke could be seen all over the island, giving signs of danger or emergency. Considering what had happened, the place was relatively calm, but not by much. Out there, there were two naval fleets looking to engage in mortal combat.

I was on the shore of the beach, to the west, looking out to sea, looking for any clue of my prey, on the horizon suddenly I saw something, I use some binoculars that I borrowed and confirm its presence, in the distance there is a whole formation of several ships, heading south, they were trying to surround the island,I see how several of the enemy planes that were still flying over the area and attacking the Kadena air base start to fly in landing formation and descend one by one on the two ships of the fleet., clearly, they must be aircraft carriers, and the Imperial fleet no doubt. By the time I realized I was smiling at the thought of the madness I was about to do again.

Why the fuck was I about to do something like this? no idea, I just wanted to fuck with those bastards that came along just to make a bigger mess than the original. It was stupid? of course, like most of my life now, but for fuck's sake it's going to be a hell of a ride.

I looked around to make sure there was no one nearby as if I could hide a damn white dragon flying straight towards a boat. Once in the air, I flew as fast as I could and as close to the water as I could. In the middle of the trip the thought of what the fuck I was doing flooded my head, I was doing something I shouldn't, and I had to go back, I had made a mistake, but in spite of that I kept going, more because I was already in the air than by determination. There was a plan? not at all, I had no idea what I was doing in the first place, I was just letting myself go. The idea was clearly to hijack one of the planes, how I would do that, well, I would have to make it up as I went along.

Several of the planes that were still patrolling began to fly at full speed towards me and got behind me, I ignored them and continued flying even faster trying to leave them behind. The ships saw me approaching and started to separate and the escorts of the aircraft carriers started to shoot at me with their cannons and even launched a missile, probably in manual control. I turned to the left to get in front of the formation and fly down the center until I reached one of their two larger ships.

I saw a plane approaching one of the ships to land, so I went straight toward it with a spontaneous idea. When that plane touched the surface of the plane I lifted up a little and landed on the ship almost at the same time. Everyone looked at me full of surprise and fear, which I took advantage of to turn and hit the plane with my tail damaging it, but more importantly, leaving the runway unusable, I grabbed another plane with my claws and threw it at another one to create a fire and an explosion just to make even more distraction. The ship's alarm went off almost immediately and emergency crews came to try to repair the damage as quickly as possible. I changed back, I had no idea if anyone had seen me but now was not the time for that, I ran as fast as I could to the door which opened as someone was leaving, and I took the opportunity to slip inside.

Once inside the ship, I tried to pass as unnoticed as possible to gain as much time as possible before I was discovered, which was about 15 seconds while going down the stairs. A soldier was going up the stairs and we bumped into each other, I immediately kicked him and advanced on him to steal his weapon, he tried to defend himself as best he could, but among his bags, I discovered a knife so I stabbed him with his own weapon. I stole the gun and continued down the stairs, I noticed a couple of letters that said hangar and I thought it would be an excellent opportunity to go there and gain more time.

It's only a matter of time before they discover the dead man I left behind and start to search the whole ship from top to bottom, which will hinder my theft. Normally an aircraft has a warehouse where they keep the aircraft ammunition and defense systems, but during combat it is impossible to keep everything in order, all the time, the hangar is always full of explosives. I can get to the hangar and detonate them to create a real chaos all over the ship and move around more easily. And in case it sinks, it can always be recovered from the bottom of the ocean.

I open the door and enter, several mechanics are running to fix several damaged planes and put them back into operation, others are mounting several missiles on the anchors of several planes. I open the door and enter, several mechanics are running to fix several damaged aircraft and put them back on track, and others are mounting several missiles on the anchors of several aircraft. While I was watching the place, on one of the sides, where the elevator was, I could see perfectly the rest of the ships of the fleet, and how they began to shoot without pause in the air and to launch missiles, the alarm followed later, it said that they were being attacked by an air attack of the alliance. Near me I saw the treasure, a load carrier with several missiles easily accessible, I ran to it, quickly removed the cover of one with a delicate professional technique of a kick, and looked inside, completely full of wires and circuitry, impossible to understand how it worked in a short time. But luckily something that almost all bombs have in common is that they only need fire to detonate, so I cut a bit of my shirt, put it inside the inside of the missile near the explosives, then ignited it and closed the lid. This would give me a minute before it detonated and no one would be suspicious of the bomb. As I was approaching the door that led to the staircase someone else noticed me and started screaming, but it was too late, he was going to have bigger problems soon.

When I was still going down a big explosion shook the whole ship, it had been my bomb? it was the most likely, but if the alliance planes were attacking it was also likely to be them, and here I was, in an enemy ship going down below sea level looking for the engine room and in case the ship sank I was basically screwed. But I had to do it, if I wanted my little big plan to work I had to get there, right next to the engine must have been the gearbox, which made the whole ship go forward or backward, if I could damage it I would pretty much kill the aircraft carrier mobility and their only other way to repel my heist.

Right now the ship was moving forward at full speed, so if he managed to damage the hydraulic system of the gearbox he would not be able to change the gears and the whole ship would only be able to move forward without changing speed, which was exactly what he needed. The huge metal box must have been right at the back of the ship, at the bottom, but as he continued down a different alarm blared loudly.

"Alarm!"

"Feindlicher enterten im Gange!"

"Code Saphir!"

"Haltet eure Waffen zum Kampf bereit!"

(Alert!)

(Enemy boarding in progress!)

(Code Sapphire!)

(Have your weapons ready for battle!)

It seemed that he had already noticed me, but people were quite busy with the alien attack and the deck and hangar fires, people were running from one place to another, the red alarm lights were all over the place. I ran into a group of aliens in a small room, they looked at me with surprise, I shot at them without any return fire and closed the door, if there were mechs here it was because they must be close by. A sign on the wall in German showed me the way and finally, I reached my target, I took a crowbar from the floor and started to hit several pipes that connected it until they broke and I also smashed a nearby circuit box. Another explosion appeared, this time the same one threw me against a pipe and against the ground, I tried to get up as fast as I could and I saw how the water was entering the place, it seemed that the impact had been a little high and had damaged a little the seals. I also noticed that I was bleeding from the head due to the blow, but I still felt pretty good, so it must be a minor blow, I took an emergency kit from the wall and continued my journey.

I opened the door to the room and felt someone hit someone on the other side of the door, someone insulted me, I pulled my hand out and shot at them, I heard no response, I opened the door and there were now two dead men on the floor, they were other engineers who were probably coming to repair the damage. I continued my way back to the stairs to go up, the same stairs where the water was coming down to the bottom of the ship.

The aircraft carrier was huge, heavy, full of people and weapons, surrounded by more ships all ready to defend their precious vessel. It was not that it could simply be stolen as if it were a cell phone, that was impossible, what he could do was to stop it completely in a place from which it would not move again. The only thing left to do was to do that last part, the simplest and most complicated, to go up to the bridge of the ship and turn the helm so that it would point directly to the island so that it would run aground. Easier said than done since it is also the place where the captain and the rest of the officers are undoubtedly located,with security measures such as armored doors and at least a dozen elite soldiers protecting access to it.

I wish I could say the same about the windows of it, you just had to climb a little higher and jump down. I admit that it was a little difficult to pass so many soldiers one after the other in such an extreme place, but that's what Avalon is for. As soon as I was next to the bridge, the officers looked at me and were scared of how I had gotten there. I didn't need any of them alive, so I destroyed the window with my sword and threw a grenade inside, they tried to open the door, but the same security that should keep them safe was what prevented them from opening it in time. Right after that I entered and turned the helm towards the island of Okinawa, I didn't need the map, it was in sight.

*Cough*

Several of the officers seemed to be alive with several wounds, I did not want them to bother me so I helped them to die faster with my pistol, although among one of the living, I could see one with a uniform clearly different from the rest, no doubt he must be the captain, so I took him while he was still unconscious and tied him to a chair with metal tape before he woke up. On the other side of the armored door, you could hear that the soldiers had noticed the explosion and were looking for a way to get in and stop me. Some of them even tried to enter the same way I did, but I managed to stop them by shooting them. The bullets I had left were few and more and more people were coming to stop me, on the other side it seemed that they were using a battering ram between several of them looking for a way to get the door to shut, which seemed to be working. I did not have to beat all of them, I just had to resist until it was impossible to change course and the ship hit land. Over the radio, I could hear the captains of the surrounding ships, who had realized that we were not making evasive maneuvers, but going off course, and when they did not get an answer they were even more alarmed. But I had bigger problems, as the door finally swung open with a heavy thud and armed soldiers began to rush in. I fired in response to try to keep control of the wheel a little longer.

Every time more and more came in, it was impossible to stop them, so I tried to buy time in any way I could. I pointed my pistol at the captain's head and looked at their reaction, they didn't shoot, for now, but they were trying to find a solution, just like me. I looked at the vest of the soldier that was closest to me, it had a couple of smoke grains, and close to me was the helm, if I managed to destroy it with Avalon it would not give them time to repair it, even less if I just left it stuck there, I would call him back later. So I bet everything on that, shooting the soldier in the chest to activate the grenade and fill the whole bridge with smoke. The chaos returned with the smoke screen, and as I had planned I hit the entire section of the bridge where the helm was and left Avalon behind as I ran back to where I had entered and climbed to the top of the ship to hold on until we hit the island.

What a long few minutes, trying to hold the shots and return them, watching the ship follow its course. Seeing how the rest of the fleet tried to stop us by first pointing their guns at us to threaten us because they thought it was a desertion attempt, but when they saw the other crew's signals for help they threw cables and harpoons to try to tow the ship, or at least change course, But a second Air Raid from the alliance and the proximity of their ships made them change their minds and leave the aircraft carrier to its fate, a couple of minutes later the huge ship crashed at full speed against the island, it was a powerful impact, which left almost half of it out of the water. The soldiers on land did not think twice to come with their vehicles to capture it, what a surprise Cedric got when he saw me getting off the same enemy boat.
