(In the main Azur Lane base...) Enterprise: "Phew...that was a tough mission." Belfast: "Indeed. Purifier is no joke." Kitakaze: "I would have never thought a Siren like that would be so tough to take down. Thank goodness the Dragon Empery helped out." Bismarck: "Hey! I helped, too!" Enterprise: "Of course, Bismarck. Your firepower was invaluable in bringing down Purifier." Belfast: "Indeed, your assistance was greatly appreciated, Bismarck. Your versatility and strength made a significant impact in the battle." Kitakaze: "Yeah, yeah, we know, Bismarck. You did your part. Don't get too cocky now." Bismarck: "Hmph, I'm just stating the truth. I deserve some credit too, after all-" (The sound of a loud crash resonates through the base.) Belfast: "What the devil?" Enterprise: "Everyone, stay alert! Something's going on!" (They rush towards the source of the crash and find a destroyed storage room. Smoke fills the air, hindering their vision.) Enterprise: "Who could have caused this? And why?" Belfast: "Let's investigate. Be cautious, everyone." (They cautiously step into the smoke-filled room, their weapons at the ready. As the smoke begins to clear, they spot a figure lurking in the shadows.) Enterprise: "Identify yourself! What are you doing here?" (The figure steps forward, revealing themselves to be another shipgirl.) ???: "Hello again, Bismarck. I still remember what the Iron Blood did to us during World War II." Bismarck: "Avrora..." Avrora: "That's right, Bismarck. I haven't forgotten. And now, it's time for payback." Enterprise: "Hold on a minute! We're allies now. We've put the past behind us." Avrora: "Allies? Don't make me laugh. I've seen what you've done to my comrades. You think a simple alliance can erase all of that?" Belfast: "Avrora, I understand your anger, but we're here to fight a common enemy. Let's put our differences aside for now." Avrora: "Alliances can be broken, Belfast. And when that happens, I'll be the one to make sure justice is served." Kitakaze: "Avrora, we're all fighting for the same cause. Don't let the past cloud your judgment." Avrora: "You speak of judgment? Then let me judge for myself if you're truly worthy of trust. Prepare to defend yourselves." (Avrora charges towards the group, her rigging ready for battle. Enterprise, Belfast, Kitakaze, and Bismarck quickly raise their weapons, ready to parry her attack.) Enterprise: "Avrora, please listen. We can't let this escalate into a battle between allies. There's already enough fighting going on." Avrora: "I've made up my mind, Enterprise. I won't be swayed by empty words." (Before Avrora can strike, a voice cuts through the tension.) Unnamed Shipgirl: "Avrora, stop this madness!" (Another shipgirl appears, standing between Avrora and the group. She radiates a calming aura, her expression filled with determination.) Avrora: "Zara...what are you doing here?"
