Hello

"When the sky is really foggy, i hoped it doesn't rain back home, i continue to wonder how does one summons a dragon today, i guess today is like any other day"

I've been thinking about that certain day after all, whenever that warship will be launched is up to the navy, but still, haven't it been two years since Shouhou is laid down? Her older sister have already been in the navy, what's up with this...

After i left the temple and said goodbye to my mother, me and my brother rode the early morning train to Imagawa Port, that's where we're supposed to convene anyway. After our volunteer enlistment in the navy, we both got letters to be served on the new aircraft carrier Shouhou, not as those fighter pilots but as the engine crews while my younger brother is in the propulsion section, thinking back, i suppose i should join the army if my family lived in the mountains, isn't it better that way?

As the train stops, i woke up my brother, we both got off the train and arrived at Province Capital, Shinano. Taking a taxi we have to get there fast, late by 20 minutes may get us in trouble, maybe our section commander is dead mad by now, laughing it off we joked along the way, asking if the toilet is any good too at that, that's when we both stopped talking, there we saw a long warship, decorated with rows of greens hanging from the sides, it's the day of commissioning for the navy new modern carrier, we got off right at the gate of the naval port before hurriedly shows our ID to the guards, making our way to the deck, both of us are lost but eventually being able to walk into the flight deck of the ship, there we see many blue uniformed sailors, a row of medal filled officers and a stage for taiko drummers, getting onto the mix, i say goodbye to my brother, getting the back seat of the formation, i stayed like what the training have done to my body, my eyes perked toward the stage, that's when a officer comes in front of the taiko, he's the Fleet Admiral Izayu Minatabe.

"We gathered our sailors in blue today for a special day like those a year ago, i stand on the same ship with different faces, and i saw different emotions in those faces, you sailors will be given a duty no one have ever been given before, a duty to protect our northern nation from the enemy of the Dynasty, you are not in any kind of warship like Kongō or Miyagi, you are standing on Fujiwara prideful ship Shouhou, and i shall ask you sailors one thing, are you prepared to defend the country?!"

a rousing speech, most of us are from the noble descendants anyway, we all shouted yes, praising the dragon lord of the Senzō Clan, the drummers started to play their tune, the basic build up, then the unusual beating for a low and dramatic entrance, i looked up into the sky and see it becoming more darker, suddenly we hear a shout we wouldn't want to hear in the first day

Action Station!

Everyone scrambled, running toward the tower entrance, the one working down on the engines are first, we all get into our stations and starts up the dragon beast, with the blink of our eyes, the nuclear engines lights up as we all reverse her out of the port, the siren blaring into the ears of the sailors but most of us are occupied by the works, i on the other hand begins to use both my hands and connect the powers together, running around the engine section and double-checking the engines

"The dragon have launched, exiting port in 3 minutes" is what I can hear, i smiled, thinking about how Fujiwara can defend itself against a foreign invader, that is if they are going to in the first place.
