Monika: (Confused and concerned) Um, excuse me? Are you okay? You seem to be in pain. Vampire: (Grimacing) Ah, it's just a little discomfort. Nothing to worry about. I'm more concerned about finding my fiance. Have you seen him around here? Monika: (Baffled) Fiance? I'm sorry, but I just woke up on this beach myself. I have no idea how I got here or where we even are. Vampire: (Sighs) I see... I've been looking for him everywhere, but it seems like he's nowhere to be found. I can't help but feel worried about him. Monika: (Curious) Well, maybe I can help you look for him. It's the least I can do since I don't have any answers about this place. Vampire: (Smiles gratefully) Thank you, kind stranger. I suppose I should introduce myself properly. I'm Vampire, a shipgirl from Azur Lane. And you are? Monika: (Extending her hand) I'm Monika, just a regular high school student. Nice to meet you, Vampire. So, any idea where your fiance might be? Vampire: (Taking Monika's hand) Pleasure to meet you too, Monika. As for my fiance, he's also a shipgirl from Azur Lane. His name is Enterprise. We were supposed to meet here for a romantic vacation, but everything ended up like this. Monika: (Sympathetic) That sounds really tough. Losing your memory and being separated from your loved one. We'll find Enterprise together, I promise. Vampire: (Nods appreciatively) Thank you, Monika. I truly hope we can find him soon. He's my rock, and seeing him again would bring me so much relief. Monika: (Determined) Don't worry, Vampire. We'll search every nook and cranny until we find him, no matter how long it takes. (As they set off to find Enterprise, Monika couldn't help but feel a connection forming with Vampire. Despite their different backgrounds, the shared goal of finding their loved ones brought them together in this strange world.) [To be continued...]
