2025

At St. Fountain, South Africa

We can see Theresa leading some Valkyries to an huge building where according to Bronya's calculations and observations is Void Archive's hiding and planning as he is leading the Sky People to confront Schicksal and Anti-Entropy forces for one last time as Theresa and Welt, leaders of both organizations respectively, have decided to end Void Archives and the Sky People once and for all to ensure and secure the peace that Kiana once did 8 years ago as she sealed the honkai at the moon, that caused her to stay there

As they reached the entrance of the area after killing the Sky People that are blocking there way Theresa spoke

Theresa: Split into groups I'll confront Void Archive's myself

"Hai Overseer"

and so they entered and headed to different areas of the building with Theresa heading to a long hallway

As she continued walking the corridor she suddenly heard Void Archive's voice

"My, My who do we have here, The Daughter of the Previous Overseer Ot-"

Theresa: What do you want Void Archives? *continues to walk while keeping her guard up as she tightens her hold at Oath of Judah* 

"You don't want your grandfather name to be spoken huh?, That understandable I hate him much as you do after he abandoned me after he got what he wanted"

Theresa: . . .What is you objective on leading the Sky People?

"Oh you are interested in my goal, It's only simple, to end the honkai completely"

Theresa: My niece had already done that 

"Oh please that clone only gave you guys a temporary solution-"

Theresa: Don't call Kiana a clone

"Alright then but, if the Honkai is completely gone then Why did the sky people appeared here?"

Theresa: Whatever reason they appear, it isn't because of the honkai

"How can you be so sure at that?, From what I see on them they have been waiting here after the Honkai got sealed, but not all of it has been sealed, so I made a plan to end all of the Honkai once and for all with the help of the Sky People which involves at going to the moon as well"

Theresa: I won't let you do that, you won't go anywhere you madness end here, Void Archives

And then Theresa reached the end of the Hallway and opens two huge doors and saw Void Archive's waiting for her as he summoned a copy of Oath of Judah with multiple copies of Judgement of Shamash from golden portals and then he spoke

Void Archives: If that's your decision then I'll have to annihilate you, Overseer Theresa

and so the two engaged into a fight with Theresa trying to hit Void Archives, but failed due to his Oath of Judah Mimicry Void Archives blocking her Oath of Judah and dodging the bullets that are being fired by multiple copies of Judgement of Shamash forcing her to go to a defensive stance and position, causing him to almost gain the upperhand if it isn't for Mei and Bronya, who came just in time to save Theresa from getting killed by the  bullet

Theresa: Mei, Bronya

Mei: Thank God we aren't late, don't worry about are squad members Overseer, they can handle themselves

Bronya; Da, Bronya and Mei will do our best to give you an opening to hit him Overseer

and then suddenly a huge hole was revealed at the room with the roof opening, with missile at the hole causing every one to stay back a little bit

Void Archives: Ah the missile is ready *Starts Flying at the center of the hole

Theresa: What Missile?!

Void Archives: This missile is created by me and has the power to end the honkai that your beloved clone niece sealed, and I'm going to fire it, and she'll be a collateral damage

Mei: I won't let you do that! *eyes started to glow brighter*

Void Archives: Hoh, you wanted a rematch, very well then I can take you all, it only needs 3 minutes for the missile to launch anyway so we have time to spare 

and so they started to engage, with Bronya not fighting as she is ordered by Theresa to hack and stop the detonation sequence to stop the missile, but Bronya summons some of her guns to help Mei and Theresa fight Void Archives

And as the last 20 seconds before the missile launched, Bronya managed to stop the sequence, while Mei and Theresa defeated Void Archives, with him leaning on the wall and lying on the floor with pain all over on his body

But then the missile's lights alarmed with it saying

"Warning Failure to launch, initiate Explosion self destruct sequence"

As they saw this Bronya tries to cancel the command with Mei and Theresa heading to her, but then Theresa's senses acted up, causing her to push Bronya and Mei away from her and then they saw something that horrified them both

Theresa got stabbed from multiple directions by Void Archives Oath of Judah Mimicry

Void Archives: If I got down you go down with me Overseer

Theresa: GAH! *blood came out from her mouth*

Both: Overseer!

Theresa: I-I'm fine *coughs blood* Get the rest away from this building and at the battle area

Mei: But

Theresa: I knew, one day this will happen, I left a letter on my desk on who will be my successor, tell Amber to read to you all okay

Bronya: There has to be another way

Theresa: There's no time-

and then the voice from the missile spoke and said it has only 2 minutes left before it self destructs

Theresa: This is my final order, and Mei... Tell Kiana if she came back that I'm sorry

Mei: H-Hai

Theresa: Now GO!

And so the two left with the mimicry of Oath of Judah disappearing from Void Archives hand's causing more blood to come out as she leans on the floor holding her Oath of Judah tightly and from there she spoke

Theresa: You know, I pity you Void Archives

Void Archives: What?

Theresa: You felt being controlled and manipulated at the palm of my Grandfather's hand and only had little freedom and actions, I experienced that but yours is more painful than mine, we both know why right?

Void Archives: . . .

Theresa: I don't blame you from doing this, you are just finding a way to end the Honkai, but there are many possible other ways to do that, without someone getting hurt in the process *her eyes started to blur as she looked at Void Archives destroyed mask as she can now see a part his face* So I for-give *coughs blood* you...............

And from there Theresa makes her final breath and died as she closed her eyes 

Void Archives: You know for a clone of Kallen Kaslana, Theresa you are always a kind person despite everyone committing a heavy crime-

"15 seconds before self destruction"

Void Archives: you always forgive them nevertheless and show a smile that can make them change for the better

"10...9...8...7-"

Void Archives: If there is a possibility, I wish-*closes his eyes*

"5...4...3...2...1-"

Void Archives: You became my owner in my next life 

"0 Initiating Self destruction"

As this happens the missile self destructs like a Atomic Bomb destroying the city and the Sky People into oblivion, with the Valkyries watching it while many mourned for Theresa's death

To be continued

Chapter Text

When Void Archives made his wish, gears of fate from the multiverse started to move and his body turned back into a golden cube and was merged into a blue figure

and then everything went white

And from there Vestal wakes up with some sweat on her forehead, with her removing it

Vestal: That Dream again, it's always the same but it feels familiar, bit at the same time very foreign

And then Vestal gets out of bed to start her day

Her name is Vestal, Owner of the USS Vestal, a American Repair Ship and part of the Eagle Union shipgirls that was part of the Azur Lane Organization that is currently fighting the Alien Humanoids and Mass Produced Warships called Sirens, who almost put human kind to the brink of extinction is it wasn't for the scientists to decided to revive shipgirls who got sunk or scrapped during the Second World War by using there wisdom cube which was discover sometime before the First World War

But for Vestal, she is a special case as she is summoned with her Wisdom Cube being Gold and with that even after her ship got scrapped in 1950 she never faded away and started to blend in society and became one of the greatest doctors and saved many people and strengthens her will to save more as she failed to save some people due to there incurable diseases or there current state, until duty calls her again to serve as they rebuild her ship to help her fellow shipgirls to fight the sirens and treating the injured to the best of her abilities

It is true that she can't do this alone, but-

30 mins. later

As Vestal Opened the room to the infirmary she saw a girl with Black and Green Hair and has Dark Green eyes and was wearing a nurse outfit placing some papers at Vestal's desk

Vestal: Oh Wendy, Good Morning, your early today

Wendy: Yeah, the infirmary was mess a little when you left so I decide to fix it for you Doctor

Vestal: Thank you, would you like to join me to get lunch after our work, as a show of appreciation for your hard work on working with me for how was it?

Wendy: 2 Years Doctor Vestal, But I would like to decline you might have do to something important after your duty hours

Vestal: Nonsense, don't worry I'll pay the food you'll for lunch okay

Wendy: *sighs* Very well then Doctor

and so Vestal headed to her desk with Wendy giving the papers she fixed with Vestal checking them

and after a few minutes, another person entered the infirmary, this time it was a man in his 20s and has very long gray hair and fuchsia eyes with green pupils, causing some people to mistake him as a girl and was wearing a doctors outfit

And as Wendy and Vestal notices him, Wendy spoke

Wendy: Oh Doctor Su, Good Morning

Su: Good Morning to you as well I hope I wasn't interrupting something when I arrived

Vestal: Oh don't worry about it Su, our conversation was finished a few minutes ago

Su: I see, so let's start our work then

And within the first 3 hours the infirmary many injured soldiers that were sent to the Azur Lane base by ships, as they came from areas were they are fighting siren humanoids occupying human territory and needed treatment due to there injuries, with Vestal and Su checking there conditions at a fast rate and tells Wendy what are the supplies they needed with Wendy immediately getting them

After an hour all of the soldiers were treated and are in a good condition, with them thanking Vestal, Su, and Wendy for there effort on helping them at the war, with the three thanking them

But there is one thing that concerns Vestal as of late

There are supposed to be shipgirls that are on patrol as there is an occasion that they return with injuries from helping ships manned by humans to stay safe from the lurking Mass Produced Siren ships

She didn't know were it started but she notice only 10% of the Shipgirls are doing patrols and the rest aren't, sure there are more Azur Lane Bases around the globe doing there jobs to the fullest, but the Base she is in is where almost all of the most powerful shipgirls are, with Su noticing weird behavior from the human workers that worked here, which are mostly male and only has a few females

And as 12 Noon sets the three closed the infirmary to take a 30 minute lunch break

But as they walked in the hallway, they saw Enterprise walking at the hallway as well with her clothes a little messy along with her hair and cap 

And from there Vestal spoke

Vestal: Ah Enterprise it's good to see you

Enterprise: A-Ah Vestal you too as well

Wendy: Is there a problem Ms. Enterprise, did you get your ship damaged heavily again?

Enterprise: N-No of c-course not, I don't want Vestal to scold me and r-report my stubbornness to Yorktown who is in another base a-and besides I'm not on patrol since the commander gave me s-some tasks

Vestal: I'm here you know

and then Wendy and Su started to chuckle with Enterprise laughing nervously with Vestal and Su noticing it

Something is definitely wrong with her 

Su: Well it's good to see you on good condition then, we'll take our leave to the cafeteria then

Enterprise: V-Very well see you g-guys later

and so they left her, unknown to them a suspicious liquid started to be visible to Enterprise's leg as she walked little slow

At the Cafeteria

We can see the three eating the food given to them by Nevada who managed to cook the food after her patrol 

And as they are almost done eating, Phoenix(Who also went to patrol) comes close to them and spoke

Phoenix: Hey Vestal

Vestal: Oh Phoenix what do you need

Phoenix: Can you give this back to Enterprise *pulls out a key to the janitors closet* I asked her a copy of the key since I need to clean my ship and forgot to give this back to her, she is probably at her room if I remembered

Vestal: Oh sure 

Since she just finished on eating she gets the key from Phoenix and headed to the her room

But as she headed to her room she can hear some sounds in Enterprise's room, which were like muffles and.... moans?

Vestal: What the hell?

And so Vestal opens the door a little and quite and takes a peek and the next thing she saw something that shocked her in disbelief, with clouds starting to become grey all of the sudden

To be continued

Chapter Text

Hours after what Vestal saw in Enterprise's room

We can see it's raining outside of the base with Vestal, Su, and Wendy at the infirmary and they are in a bad mood, a bad one

Su: So that's why only a few shipgirls are doing sorties, and are the only one getting injured when they came back these days...unbelievable

Wendy: Those men... they are disgusting even the Commander assigned to this base let them do what they want

Vestal just discovered that Enterprise, her best friend and the one who is always gets injured when doing sortie, had become a slut as she saw her having sex with multiple men with other shipgirls who are in daze as it seems they were fucked first before Enterprise, the only reason why nobody suspects them is because every dorm room is soundproofed for privacy reasons

What's worse is that those men were the employees that are hired at the base, causing Vestal to search the Commander's true identity and had to hack the CCTV's of the base and what she saw increased her anger even further

The Commander has some criminal records related to sexual harassment and anything related to the sin of lust and had made a deal with a siren which was Observer Alpha, who he fucked aswell to convince her to make the deal about not attacking the base to often so he and the men he convinced in the base can fuck the shipgirls which was all recorded in the CCTV's

When she told this to Su and Wendy they are angry at this discovery but they can't do anything one mistake can kill them or worse frame them as traitors and so the only option left is

Vestal: If we wanna live another day we have to resign at working here

Wendy: But what about those who weren't

Vestal: We can't save them they're on there on Wendy, If there is another way I'll happily do it, but the Commander had a siren on his side and might intercept anything we're planning and warn him

Wendy: Doctor Su please tell me you're agreeing to her?!

Su:...She's right Wendy there's nothing we can do, but even we resign the Commander will tell the Siren to keep an eye on us so the only thing we can do is to be in one area or close to each other's place so we can protect each other if the commander planned to kill us

Wendy: ....

And then everyone stayed silent

Vestal: But I think he'll really resign us from our job's 

Wendy: What do you mean, Doctor Vestal?

Vestal: I can feel Two men heading here and if I'm correct one of them will say "The Commander wanted you all to pack you're belongings and then head to his office"

and then a few second later, two men entered the infirmary and then one of them spoke

 "The Commander wanted you all to pack you're belongings and then head to his office"

As Su and Wendy heard this they were shocked at Vestal's premonition, but nevertheless Wendy and Su pack there things up and then follows Vestal to her Room so she can get her stuff safely

When Vestal entered her dorm room, she gets all of the things she had in her room and placed them in bags that she had hidden under her bed and grabs the necklace that the priest who blessed her ship when she was summoned and wears it

(Imagine it was necklace)

After that she left the room with Wendy and Su and headed to the Commander's office

(I Recommend to play the song: Hell's Comin' with Me to make this chapter more interesting)

A few minute's later 

Outside of the Azur Lane Base, Parking lot

Just as Su and Vestal Predicted the Commander made them resign on working at the base and as for Vestal's ship and her fate, she'll be put into another Azur Lane base which will take some time due to a lot of processing to do that

As for the dark secret in this base the commander threatened them if they spoke the truth they'll be silenced for good as one of the men who is at Enterprise's room noticed that Vestal saw them but left and placed the keys that Cleveland gave her infront of the door and tell what he discovered to the commander

Which led them now to the parking lot where Su offered them a drive since he had a car with Vestal looking at the base on last time and holds her necklace and prayed for the remaining shipgirls not to consumed by lust with her saying

Vestal: Mark my works Commander, I'll be back and punish you and your goons when the time is right

and then she entered the car and then the left the base completely 

Hours Later

9:00 PM

At Su's Apartment

We can see Vestal at the room that Su gave her as the apartment he is living is big for 3 people to live, with Wendy texting her parents that she'll have to stay here for the meantime with her parents letting her stay to Su's place as they are luckily in Australia

And since they are done eating dinner Wendy and Su are asleep in there rooms except for her as she can't sleep, she manifested her Golden Wisdom Cube in her right hand and takes a look at it with curiosity

And at that moment the necklace she is wearing and her cube shined bright causing her to cover her eyes, dropping her cube at the process

As the light disappears she removes her arms and saw a man wearing a elegant white outfit and was wearing a mask 

She was about to scream but the man covers her mouth when she was about to do that

Void Archive's isn't sure what is going on

He expected his wish to be ignored and he'll be punish in the worst possible way for his crimes, but in the end his wish came true as she noticed the woman he is in front of is like Theresa Apocalypse, but he needed to know what is happening in this world he is in and make sure this isn't some sort of trap or something

As he was about to spoke he notice the woman was about scream, and he immediately covers her mouth and spoke

VA(Void Archive's for short): I won't hurt you young lady, so please don't scream okay?

and as Vestal heard this she calms down and looks where did her wisdom cube went and discovered that he is her wisdom cube, confusing her 

As VA removes his hand the two introduced themselves first and from there VA asked how did he got summoned here as he felt Vestal and him connected to each other

Vestal: Oh um... this might sound weird but your my Wisdom Cube

VA: Wisdom Cube?

Vestal: You see Wisdom Cube's are a metaphysical object that contains the thoughts, ideals and beliefs of humanity. The cube's are embodied in Ships as their foundation, additionally, Wisdom Cubes can be used offensively to achieve reality altering effects, such as creating things from nothing or making thoughts, fantasies, ideals and desires become reality

VA: I see *Thoughts* So I become a Wisdom Cube for this girl *End thoughts*

And then VA uses his/her cube so he can know Vestal a little bit more, and from there he discovers that she is A US Repair Ship with some WW2 armament(with VA getting curious about WW2 causing him to use his power to access the internet of this world since he is an AI to find out more about WW2 which has a WW1 before it and was surprised on how humans can wage a war like this as there is no honkai threatening humanity and instead they had alien invaders called 'The Sirens' who invaded Earth and how is the planet doing now against them)

The information he gathered to know Vestal was very interesting as well as she was a great doctor that many admired, and a friend to many and also loved to read manga and anime when she had free time

And then suddenly Vestal gave VA the middle finger as she felt that VA is checking her info with VA apologizing to her and teeing that he only want to her better since this is the first time he was awaken from his slumber, and asked Vestal on why she resigned on working on Azur Lane if she has a good record, and Vestal's mood changed, causing VA to offer her a place where they she can calm down by creating a portal that'll lead them to a place she knew 

Vestal felt that VA shouldn't be trusted, but the man is showing some kindness so far and so she and VA entered the portal and appeared at the cliff were the Azur Lane Base can be seen from a far since she always headed here whenever she wanted to relax from work

And then after a few minutes Vestal told VA the situation, with VA getting angry at what he'd just heard but hid it from Vestal so she wouldn't know 

After her explanation he noticed Vestal's necklace which was the Oath of Judah and felt it was at a dormant state and from there he smirk and spoke

VA: So that place is filled with lust because of the men working there, and you're afraid that it'll spread on other bases too, and it'll be humanity's downfall if that happens right?

Vestal: Yes

VA: And your too powerless to do anything... If that's the case I'll help you bring justice to this place *snaps his fingers*

and then suddenly Vestal's necklace left her and then it turned into a huge cross, shocking her but also gaining a sense of familiarity from it, and from there Vestal explained how she got the necklace and VA explaining what the weapon can do and told her his abilities aswell 

But after he said this he spoke

VA: But after we punished those who deserved I'll request something from you deal?

Vestal agreed to him since she only wanted to bring justice nothing more and nothing less as she wanted everything to be normal again which surprised VA when she accepted it all of the sudden

And so when Wendy and Su woke up, Vestal introduced VA to them and then she told them that she'd finally found a way to take some action with Wendy and Su agreeing to the plan that Vestal and VA made(Su hesitated at first but humanity sake is on the line and so he agreed)

3 days later

At the Azur Lane base 

We can see Nevada trying to make the men that are guarding the base to back of as they were about sexually harass her with Cleveland trying to threaten them, but was kicked and punched by some men and were about to rape her 

But then a figure entered the entrance causing the soldiers to focus on that figure and point there guns, causing Nevada to look at the figure that saved them

It was wearing a black coat with a white shirt and has a hood on it's head with a mask covering it's face so no one knew who is the figure

And lastly they notice that it has a huge golden cross on it's back, with the soldiers looking at the cross behind the figure and since it could be made of gold they are imagining how much money they can make if they sell it

Soldier: Whoever you put you hands up and drop your weapon 

and then the figure dropped the cross with the soldiers looking at it as it fall-

???: Disgusting

Which became there mistake as the figure suddenly summoned a gun in her hand

(Imagine the figure doing it)

And within seconds they were shot in the head and all dropped dead, with Nevada getting close to Cleveland as she doesn't know the figure's intention, with the figure making the gun disappear and then picks up the huge cross and put's it on at it's back and goes near to Nevada and spoke something inaudible with a golden Feather falling at Nevada's right head causing her to loose consciousness with the figure removing the mask for a bit revealing it was Vestal who does all of this

Vestal: Your tricks worked very well Archives 

and then Archives called her in her mind and spoke

Archives: I know but we need to move on to the plan now

Vestal: Yeah you're right Wendy hacked the CCTV's right with Su's help

Archives: Yes they knocked out the guards in the security room due to Su being a martial artist

Vestal: All according to plan then 

and then she wears her mask, while VA appeared at the mess hall of the base with the Sword form of Judgement of Shamash on his hands and smirked as the sword glowed brightly

10 Mins. Later

Some parts of the Azur Lane base are on fire with Men running outside the base for there lives wearing only shorts or nothing as they are fucking shipgirls before everything got to this

And then as they thought they are safe they suddenly saw The Commander and Observer Alpha hanged with Vestal infront of the hanged, causing the men to kneel for mercy as they fear Vestal will kill them

But then Vestal spoke to VA in her mind as she wanted to try something with VA allowing it 

And so Vestal summoned Mimicry of Abyss Flower in her hands and then it turned into a golden sphere as she puts it at Oath of Judah causing the spears of Oath of Judah to turn black sharp ones and then she spoke

Vestal: You wanted mercy huh, Sorry but-

and then she activated Oath of Judah with the spears entering the portals that VA summoned and from there the spears stabbed all of the men at the hearts causing them to die slowly but painfully due to the affects of the Mimicry of the Abyss Flower to Oath of Judah

Vestal: Humans like you are the worst scum of the earth

and then after a minute all of them died with Vestal heading to where the shipgirls are to do the final part of the plan

As the Authorities came they saw the base was a mess and many employees dead and saw shipgirls all unconscious and when they woke up they only remembered that A huge Siren Fleet attacked them by surprised and they are all knocked out when it happened and that's all they remembered as Vestal hugely altered there memories so they won't remember being fucked by them and will forget about it forever, with the Authorities discovering what the Commander really is doing after an anonymous person sent a video which was the CCTV footage that Vestal copied and since the Shipgirls can't remember anything the cover up about what really happened was effective and from there the Higher Ups became strict on choosing a commander for the shipgirls to follow and help humanity fight for the sirens with all there heart, mind and soul to ensure none of this will happen again

Plus Vestal, Su, and Wendy got there jobs back

And as for the Deal that VA and Vestal made well...

To be continued

Chapter Text

There is no Soulium in this world, That's what Void Archive's just realized

The Deal was that Vestal will make him clone body made of soulium as he is using a projection that can make people see and touch when he was awoken once again, so he can leave the place and travel the world in his free will, A wish that Otto robbed from him for 500 year when he reawakened him from his slumber

With this information VA decided to stay with Vestal, who is furiously apologizing and promised to find a way to make him a body, causing him to choose this decision

But hey atleast Vestal, A Version of SU and Wendy from this universe welcomed him as a new part of the family, Plus he managed to create some fake documents with Vestal's help so he can't go to school with him having a job as a Doctor, a Scientist, and a Mathematician, with Vestal making his life info, with VA chuckling as Vestal Presented the 30-Page Biography to him, so he can see if she done right, with him accepting the work she made due to details she placed are correct and make sense for any government to believe how he got 3 jobs like that

And so VA spend his time helping Vestal in the others in the Infirmary while being a Teacher at a school a few meters away from the Base, and was looking for potential minerals that can be used as a alternative soulium with Vestal helping him as she is surprisingly had a research once she wished to complete but she postpone it after her duty call her even it was 85% complete, Which made VA decide to help her on what ever research she is doing while Vestal help him as well

Those days stay the same until 1 year later

At the hills of a forest a few meters away from 

We can see Vestal and VA at the middle of the forest as VA teaches Vestal how to use Oath of Judah with Vestal learning it very quick despite they are doing this very rare due to there jobs

And then VA managed to dodge The Oath of Judah's spears which had flames on them as Vestal combine the Sword form of Judgement of Shamash into Oath of Judah, which was in Spear Mimicry mode as VA dubbed, as the Oath of Judah can change the spears and make them deadly depending on what Mimicry Weapon that was combined to it, and since Vestal can also Mimicry the Divine keys as his cube is at her body and he is her wisdom cube If VA is going to use Oath of Judah he can use the Spear Mimicry Mode aswell, So far they can Spear Mimicry Mode Abyss Flower, Xuanyuan Sword, and Water's Edge

As VA does this he spoke

VA: You've become stronger Vestal *Does a backflip to dodge the incoming spears that were about to stab him from behind*

Vestal: Thanks, VA *pulls out the golden orb from the Oath of Judah which puts the spears back to it's original form* I think we can end this from here the sun is about to set 

VA: I agree 

and so they decided to head back to base, until VA felt a void portal with Honkai Energy appearing somewhere at the forest and the winds it released causing many birds to flee from the forest as if it sensed danger, with Vestal feeling confused as it was the first time she felt this but it is seemingly familiar

VA: You felt it too right?

Vestal: Yes, what was that

VA: Let's find out then *summons a mimicry of Judgement of Shamash(Pistol Form) but I advise to put you guard up

And so they headed to the source and as they reached it the saw a unconscious girl lying in epicenter of a huge crater 

(Imagine she is unconscious and  lying in epicenter of a huge crater)

As VA saw the girl he was shocked

VA: No way

But Vestal immediately goes close to the girl and checked her condition and from there Vestal spoke

Vestal: She is having a fever and seems in distress help me take her to the infirmary VA *puts Oath of Judah on her back*

VA: R-Right *Unsummons the pistols from his hands and goes to Vestal*

Why?, Where did she go wrong?

Those are the questions that Kiana has in mind

After 9 Years(If She's correct) of Staying and stabilizing the seal in the moon to prevent the Honkai from harming humanity ever again, she is finally ready to go back to earth, and the only thought she had when she goes down to earth is her Beloved, Raiden Mei

Kiana made a vow to Mei before she sealed the honkai in the Moon, to return to her so they can live happily ever after

That's what she exactly did after she gets a set of clothes to be atleast formal and, if she is correct after spending time to watch Mei from the moon, she headed to her house and was about to knock at Raiden Mei's door until she heard moans inside the house, which causes her to froze as she almost knocked at the door

Kiana: No Mei won't do that to me... right?

and so she checked the windows of the house to look for the source of the moans and was hoping this all just a some sort of possibility that Mei is watching those kind of videos to relieve herself

But as she checked the last window which was surprisingly Mei's bedroom, her heart broke into thousand of pieces

She saw her Beloved Mei, Having sex with a Man with Mei saying things about Kiana in between moans, like: "I don't care if she see's me like this!~", "She left me for 9 years and left me like this, I deserved better!~", with the man supporting Mei's words as they continued to do it

And those words break her, but the last line she heard from Mei broke her heart completely

"I don't love her anymore so do your worst at me!~"

And from there Kiana ran and ran and ran until she is in a forest 

Why, why, why, why, why???????, Why did Mei betray her like that, Kiana heart is hurt everytime she saw Mei very Happy but she isn't there for 9 years, 9 YEARS

Her train of thought was cut short as she tripped and fall on the ground, with Kiana crying her heart out

That's were everything started to take a toll to Kiana which causes her to loose control of her void powers and accidentally teleports herself in a random universe, which was where Vestal is

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Theresa and VA take the unconscious girl(Who VA called Kiana) to the infirmary with SU and Wendy checking her if the girl is alright, Theresa asked how did he know the girl

And from there VA explained his past and how he got here(Except for the part of knowing that Vestal is Theresa's reincarnation and fabricated a part that VA accidentally brought along Oath of Judah when he got revived in Vestal's world), with VA expecting them to get angry at him due to he did many bag things in Kiana's universe but Vestal and the 2 forgave him as it seems VA is doing his best to redeem himself 

But VA wondered how did Kiana get to this universe and with Vestal's consent they used Mimicry of Fenghuang Down to check Kiana's mind to see how she got here

Needless to say, with VA very speechless and Vestal disappointed that Kiana's supposed girlfriend named Mei as VA knew(With VA explaining the two's history so Vestal won't look further in Kiana's mind) has cheated on Kiana causing her to lose control of her powers after running in the woods that got her to Vestal's world by accident

Due to Kiana's stay in the moon to seal the Honkai for 9 years and Mei's cheating on Kiana that causes Kiana's mental being to break and take a huge toll as Mei became Kiana's last lifeline and wish to stay with forever, Vestal started to write down some things that Kiana mustn't do or hear in order for her mental state to recover atleast with Su and Wendy agreeing to follow Vestal's list for Kiana's sake

Kiana: Ugh my head

We can see Kiana slowly waking up and noticed that she is in a unknown infirmary 

Kiana: What happene-. . .Oh I remember now...

And from there Kiana's expression became sad and was filled with many mixed emotions

That was until, Vestal entered the infirmary, with Kiana surprised as she resembled Aunt Theresa

Vestal: Ah your awake now young lady, how are you feeling

Kiana: I'm fine for now

Vestal: That's good, me and Dr. Archive's have found in the woods unconscious last night

Kiana: I-I see

Vestal: May I know your name young lady

Just as Kiana is about to say her name she thinks about this for a second and then she suddenly remembered how did she got here

Kiana: *Thoughts* I must've lost control of powers last night, which means I'm in a different universe now, let's hope I'm right *End thoughts*

Kiana: K-Kiana, Kiana Kaslana

Vestal: What a nice name, are you new here?

Kiana: Y-Yeah, where I'm I by the way

Vestal: Your currently in the Infirmary of The Azur Lane Base stationed here 

Kiana: Azur Lane?

Vestal: You must've not heard it, are you from a town far away from the oceans?

Kiana: Yeah

Vestal: I see, Azur Lane is a organization where shipgirls like me protect humanity from Alien warships and humanoids called Sirens after they showed up and almost ended humanity if it wasn't for us being re used and revived with the help of discovering the full potential of the Wisdom cubes as they are discovered in the 1900's

Kiana: I-I see

Vestal: Nevertheless,  I noticed earlier you look down, is there a problem?

Kiana: W-Well you see the reason why I'm here is because I need to catch some fresh air away from the people who care about me

Vestal: I see, I'll pry no longer, you'll be discharged within a few minutes, wait for Dr. Su and Nurse Wendy to check you up one last time to make it official okay, then wait for me at the entrance of the infirmary so I can escort you

Kiana: O-Okay then

and so Vestal left the infirmary with Kiana doing her best not to remember the words that Mei spoke so her mood won't worsen 

A few minutes later, Dr. Su and Nurse Wendy entered, with Kiana surprised to see a version of Wendy in this universe, with the two checking her up for one last time, and then she is now ready to leave the infirmary, with Vestal escorting her to the exit of the HQ, with Vestal amazed at the outside of the base due to a lot of shipgirls walking on markets and are talking in cafe's with manjuu's serving them, with the port and docks of the base filled with many kinds of Warships with Vestal explaining the different kinds of warships that are in the docks

And as they are about to reach the exit, Vestal spoke

Vestal: By the way do you have any place to stay

Kiana: U-Uhh about that...

Vestal: *Giggles* I see, it's okay I'll call Dr. Archive's to pick you up and let you live at our place(Vestal and Dr. Archive's apartment) at the moment we have on extra room if we are correct so you can live there on the meantime, since he is, if I'm correct done at teaching his class at this hour

Kiana: N-No, you don't need to do that Ms. Vestal

Vestal: Don't worry, it's been sometime since we had a guess

Kiana: I-If you say so

and so Vestal and Kiana reached the exit and headed to the parking lot of the base, from there Vestal called Mr. Archives from her phone and then after a few minutes there call ended

After waiting for 10 minute's of waiting, A blue Nissan car and from there Vestal opened the backseat of the car, with Kiana entering and Vestal closing the door and whispered something to Dr. Archives for a few seconds, and the Vestal waved at her as the car started to leave the parking lot of the base with Vestal heading back

And from there Dr. Archive's spoke

Dr. Archive's: It's nice to see you again, Kiana Kaslana

As Kiana, heard Dr. Archive's voice her eyes widen as she was familiar to the voice, one that she hasn't heard since she defeated that person

Kiana: You are

and then Kiana finally saw Dr. Archive's face in the front mirror, it was Otto Apocalypse-

but before Kiana can do anything Dr. Archive's spoke

Dr. Archive's: Let's be clear here Young Kaslana, I'm not Otto Apocalypse

Kiana: But you look-

Dr. Archive's: Let's discuss about this later, for not I need you to trust me, just this once okay

Kiana: . . .Fine

Dr. Archive's: Very Well then

and he continued driving the car without any issue

To be continued 

Chapter Text

As Kiana and Dr. Archive's arrived at the apartment, Kiana goes to the Dining room, With Dr. Archives serving Kiana some tea with Kiana being skeptical at it at first 

Dr. Archives: I can assure you young Kaslana, That I'm not planning anything malicious, not after I was given a second chance to redeem my mistakes 

Kiana: What do you mean about that?

And from there Dr. Archives explained his origin and after Otto left him, after succeeding in his mission to change Kallen's fate somewhere in the Imaginary Tree, and how he bring Theresa with him to die when a nuke he made filled with explosives containing a formula that can eradicate the Honkai self destructs at his final confrontation with Schicksal, causing Kiana to almost summon her greatsword, which originally belong to her teacher

But at the last second Vestal came home stopping her from doing so

Dr. Archives: Ah Vestal, welcome home

Vestal: Thank you, I'm going to eat some ramen in my room, I'll leave you two be to talk more okay

Dr. Archives: Okay, going to continue your research I presume?

Vestal: Hai, It's almost complete

Dr. Archives: Very well then see you later

and so Vestal gets a cup of ramen and puts hot water on it and brings it to her room and as this happens Kiana spoke

Kiana: Is Ms. Vestal-

Dr. Archives: Yes, she possibly might be after all she had Oath of Judah with her as a necklace that con also turn to it's original form, The moment I saw her, I swore to redeem myself by helping her do the right thing

Kiana: That doesn't involve with someone getting killed atleast right?

Dr. Archives: Ah about that, Ms. Vestal and her friends planned to fix something at the Azur Lane base, something about purifying it from filth, to which I helped cause I understand why she is doing it, at least her reason is valid than Otto's can we agree?

Kiana: I guess so 

Dr. Archives: So Vestal, without your consent looked at your memories, and knew you are lying to her

Kiana: What?!

Dr. Archives: And she wanted to know how are feeling truly, that unexpected and unbelievable event could have break you down, along with your isolation in the moon for 9 years making it a huge toll on you mentally

Kiana: I don't want to talk about it

Dr. Archives: Then I guess you'll have to attend Dr. Su's counselling sessions if you attempt to do something that you should do, only me and Ms. Vestal only knew what happened, in the meantime you'll live here until you are ready to return back to your world

Kiana: I see, But isn't that your world as well

Dr. Archives: I don't belong there anymore Young Kaslana, your room is close to Ms. Vestal, she buys some cloths for you to wear while you are in the infirmary, they aren't fancy just normal for your liking, I'll just cook some Dinner, be back at 8PM incase you leave the apartment

Kiana: Okay

And so Dr. Archives goes to prepare some ingredients for Dinner, Kiana headed to the room given to her, that has a bathroom, causing her to take a bath and manage to find a copy of the Jacket she stole when she is going to-

Kiana: No, not now let's just get some fresh air, yeah get some fresh air

And before she left the room, she noticed a phone with Vestal leaving note about the phone being hers now and she put her and Dr. Archives contacts incase she wanted to call them and a wallet full of money and credit cards for her to use incase she wanted to buy something, causing her to sweatdrop as she lost the habit of being a glutton due to her senses of fighting overloading her instincts, causing her to get only a few dollars and place the wallet in the drawer close to the bed and lastly the keys for entering the apartment incase Vestal and Dr. Archives is still on there jobs so she can enter without issue

Almost an Hour later 

After Kiana said goodbye to Dr. Archives as she is going to get some fresh of air, she walked a few meters away from where the apartment is and was walking close to a beach with the sun ready to go down for the night to come

We can see Kiana buying a Vanilla and Chocolate mixed ice cream and saw a abandoned newspaper in the bench where the sunset can be watched and as she opened it the headline reads:

"MYSTERIOUS VIGILANTE NAMED SIN HUNTER SAVES 100 CHILDREN FROM HUMAN TRAFFIKING, ALL PERSONS RESPONSIBLE, INCLUDING ONE GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL ARRESTED!!!"

As Kiana saw this, she remember that since Vestal look liked her Aunt and her Aunt was born from her one of her ancestors, Kallen Kaslana's genes, there is a possibility that the Sin Hunter could be Vestal

Kiana: No Honkai in this world huh, what my life could've been if that happened, Maybe Me and Mei can be together just as I promised?

As she said that she had already finished eating her Ice Cream and she pondered her thoughts of the times she spent with Mei and there promise, until Mei broke her oath

Kiana: Why Mei, why?

and then Kiana tries her best not to cry, cause why Mei did that to her, she knows Mei is hurt every single day that she is not by her side, but she hurt aswell, and this is how Mei repay her, having some sex with a random guy and admitting that she doesn't deserve Kiana's love anymore as she thought she abandon her 

Until suddenly her train of thought was caught of when a hand holds her right shoulder and then she noticed her feet is wet to the legs, causing her to turn around and saw Dr. Archives, with Vestal at the sand looking worried

Dr. Archives: It seems following you is one of the decisions I greatly made in life after I finished making Dinner 30 minute's after you left, you are about to commit suicide by drowning yourself to the ocean, lets get you back to safety

and as they headed back, Vestal hugged Kiana as she started to breakdown with Vestal trying to calm her down

Hours Later

At the Apartment 

In the living room 

After they eat Dinner, Vestal stays in Kiana's room, with Dr. Archives sitting at the couch reading a novel, until Vestal came out and sit at the opposite couch direction where Dr. Archives is

Dr. Archives: How is she?

Vestal: She is mentally not stable, she agreed to attend Dr. Su's counselling, so I'll have to give him the whole inform about Kiana, but I'm afraid it might won't work

Dr. Archives: So what do you propose?

Vestal: Remember the research I was doing?

Dr. Archives: You managed to finish it?

Vestal: Yes, I'm planning to use it-

Dr. Archives: I'm afraid that would be a problem and beside I can't grasp what research your doing

Vestal: I see, hear me out before you make a decision

Dr. Archives: . . .Fine then, what is the true purpose of the project?

Vestal: Well you see, it relates to the soul of a person

Dr. Archives: And?

Vestal: What if there is a light and dark version of that soul into one person, and that is the reason how people choose there paths on becoming good or evil?

Dr. Archives: I get you point but where are you going with this

Vestal: I'm going there, what if

we fuse them as one true soul?

To be continued

Chapter Text

*Click*

We can see a video being played with Vestal setting the camera up as she opens it

Vestal: Testing *looks at the video recorder and saw it was playing* Good we can begin

And then Vestal takes a seat in the one seater couch and then she spoke

Vestal: My Name is USS Vestal, part of the Eagle Union, but everyone calls me Dr. Vestal and I'm here to report Kiana Kaslana's condition with the help of Void Archives or I called him Mr. Archives observation report *shows a folder with 20 papers inside and opens it after she wears some glasses*

Vestal: Ms. Kiana Kaslana's mental state is starting to get worse a Month after she came here, She's been entering into a state where she'll harm or self or worse tries commit suicide when she is alone for 10 mins.

Vestal: This happened due to a patient I have left her phone while playing a Japanese song that has something related to heartbreak in love and suicide, this is one of the things I listed not let Kiana hear due to Mr. Archive's warnings as he explained to me the girl's fucking colorful past, Mr. Siegfried if somehow you found this tape when I send this out in the multiverse in hopes of reaching this to you *shows a bad finger* Fuck you for abandoning your daughter, your wife is probably disappointed for this mistake as Kiana is starting to fell that every one around her kept abandoning her

Vestal: Okay back on topic, Due to Mr. Siegfried's failed responsibility for abandoning her daughter, Getting Isolated in the Moon for 9 years, and Ms. Raiden cheating at her, she might be drunk but that incident finally made her break completely and I don't know how long we can stop her

Vestal: So I'll use my experiment, called the True Soul Theory, in hopes that her mental state can be repaired temporarily, but what is that Theory?

Vestal: This Theory of mine started after reading Plato's theory of soul, which defines the soul as a simple, pure, unorganized, uncompounded, invisible, rational entity. He says that the soul is simple in its true nature and cannot be composed of many elements, that the soul is pure in its original, divine state, and that any impurity in the soul is from its contact with the earth.

Vestal: And it's divided into three parts which is:

-Nutritive soul – This is the part responsible for nutrition and growth

-Rational soul – This is the part responsible for reason

-Appetitive soul – This is the part that governs desire

Vestal: Now since Archive's told me that Ms. Kiana is a clone of the original name bearer for the girl name Sirin to possess and control, I theorized that due to Sirin's consciousness gave life to Kiana and when her stay on the moon for 9 years and Ms. Raiden's cheating happened, all of these parts were damaged that affected her mental state causing her soul to be almost husk

Vestal: Now how does My True Soul Theory will be in part of helping Ms. Kiana?

Vestal: Think that Kiana's soul is split into two, The Good, and the Bad, with the center making the final decision of doing the things the she does, like a conscience and consciousness

Vestal: What if we combine those two to make as one, no Conscience telling her if she's doing the right or wrong thing, like she's ascended into a higher divinity, live how Buddha ascended to enlightenment and being a figure many worshipped in Buddhism today

Vestal: But Archives told me Sirin's soul left Kiana so she can own the powers she had today, There could be a possibility that a evil, much eviler soul of Kiana was formed but it didn't revealed itself until the 9 year isolation and Mei's cheating happened and is starting to grow at Kiana fast

Vestal: Now that I told you my Theory, Here's how it works, we'll put Kiana into a unconscious state and her fighting spirit will be removed aswell, so it can't be corrupted by her Evil part while telling her to enter her own soul, where she'll be representing whatever good she had left and face her true self

Vestal: It it works, there'll be a hundred percent chance that. . .her evil self won completely control her body, but will still contain some good, and everything about her behavior actions will slightly or hugely change 

Vestal: If there is another way not to use this I would, but Kiana doesn't want to return to her world, so I have no choice, and I wanted to save her from getting herself break apart, I can see she's a good kid, for those who are on her world and is watching this, I'll let you guys find away to get here and pick her up, If you guys can

and then someone knocked at the door and spoke revealing Mr. Archive's voice

Mr. Archive: I'm here with Kiana at the apartment, Everything's ready for the three of us to be teleported to the Nirvana Corridor so we can start, she agreed 

Vestal: I see *removes her glasses* let's eat dinner first before proceed

Mr. Archive: Very well then

Vestal: I hope you find this video, cause the Kiana you all know might not be the same anymore after this, This is Dr. Vestal ending my report

and then Vestal closes the Video recorder and then lefts the room while holding it 

Somewhere in the Sea of Quanta

We can see a Video Recorder that Vestal had being thrown there with a bubble to protect it from being taken by those who are not to watch it as it floats around the Sea of Quanta

The only ones who might break the bubble can be the people where Kiana's universe resides

Many Quantum beasts tried to open the Bubble  but they all failed

Until someone, a girl who is now a grown up woman in the Sea of Quanta saw the bubble while it was fighting some Quantum beasts and killing them

???: They are starting to become restless even the Honkai is gone in my world *notices the bubble* Huh a bubble?

and as she made contact with the bubble it pops revealing the Video recorder to which she checks and watches Vestal's recording

As she heard it's contents her eyes widen and immediately headed back to her world as she might've found the reason why the Quantum beasts are being active again after 9 years even without the Honkai

To be continued

Chapter Text

Back at Kiana's world

After Overseer Theresa's death, she left Durandal to be the next Overseer with Rita, Amber, Bronya, and Welt to help her to lead Schicksal for a better future for a year

But then they managed to discover that Kiana had returned to Earth as satellite's detected that something alive entered Earth and from there they spotted Kiana heading to where Mei's house is and Bronya was sent to Mei's house to tell Mei the news

Only for Mei to mess everything up as she was drunk having sex with a man that Kiana saw and broke down and then disappeared into an unknown place with Bronya killing the man in rage and knocked out Mei, With Amber and Rita cleaning up the mess

Luckily that Man's parents are already dead and had no friends and family left, but they are very angry at Mei, with Mei feeling extremely guilty for what she done when she found out Kiana saw her, With Rita doing her best to keep Durandal cool as she attempting to end Mei's life for the sin she did

A Month after that incident and still searching for Kiana's whereabouts, Emperor Honkai Beasts appeared where Mei and her squad are, and caused havoc in the city, but this time they are different

It seems there only target is Mei and nothing else as the beasts sparred the Civilians, Carole, and Adam, with the people there not getting infected by Honkai infection and the beasts doing there best not to destroy the city

By the time that Reinforcements came to help, they are all finished by Mei with Carole and Adam successfully evacuating everyone despite the beasts not attacking them

And when they tried to get a sample, there bodies and blood vanished to thin air, and from there on whenever Mei is done doing her duties as a Valkyrie, Honkai beasts will appear to ambush her in attempts to kill her and the two greatest doctors tries to look for reason's why they are acting like that and are attacking Mei, but failed to find a solution even Bronya tries to help them

Until Veliona came to them and was holding a camera recorder

You guys are wondering isn't Veliona supposed to be with Seele due to her being Seele's alter self and help her control her stigmata and theoretically is supposed to disappear when Bronya, Mei and Kiana ended Kevin who has the Authority of Finality?

Well minutes before Kiana sealed herself in the moon to seal the Honkai, Bronya uses her Herrscher of Reason powers, to create a human body for Veliona soul to inhabit so she can't die. As Seele requested this to repay Veliona for everything she'd done to her to become stronger and the person she is now

After Veliona's body was created, Veliona headed to the Sea of Quanta a few months later(Where Seele and Bronya announced there relationship to everyone) ensure there are no strange things happening to it, but comes back from time to time in a specific year and date

When Veliona appeared at the meeting room where, Durandal, Rita, Amber, Dr. Einstein, Dr. Tesla, Bronya, Seele, and Mei are. Seele spoke

Seele: Veliona, you came back early is there a problem?

Veliona: A shitty one

Seele: Language other me!

Veliona: Not now this is very important, Dr. Einstein play the recorder for everyone to watch 

and then she tosses the cam to Dr. Einstein and it was played for everyone to watch, which shocks them at it's contents, starting from seeing a reincarnated version of there deceased Overseer and how she explained Kiana's situation after she discovered Mei cheated on her(And also cursing Durandal and Kiana's father which there father had a reason, he forgot to explain to Kiana) and The True Soul Theory, and at the end of the video hearing Void Archive's voice meaning he is alive at that universe and survived with a new identity to live at the universe Kiana is

After the video ended many had different reactions, with Mei feeling even more guilty for what is now currently happening to Kiana

But they had no time for this, they needed to get Kiana back as she might be the whole reason why some Honkai beasts are attacking Mei and appearing on Earth with the Quantum Beasts in the Sea of Quanta increasing

??? Later

Back at Vestal's world

We can see two woman walking while talking about something and they entered an alleyway as a shortcut to wherever they are going

Until two man came, one holding a gun and the other holding a knife

Robber 1: Don't move and make a sound

Robber 2: Give use your belongings

But before they do that a female voice spoke

"Oi, what are you both doing to the two ladies?"

and then the robbers and the two ladies turned around and saw a woman, wearing a brown coat, a black t-shirt underneath and was wearing jeans

But that's not they are paying attention, to be specific the two ladies aren't as they are suddenly blushing at the woman's face as she looked beautiful and handsome at the same time due to her hair  white and have some hues of red, along with her fierce but calm eyes making them forget what situation they are with one of the ladies recognizing her and spoke

"Oh my God, It's Ms. Kiana Kaslana!"

(Imagine that she still has earrings and her herrscher eyes, but instead they are in a x position instead of the + one with the lines of the x black white the middle is still white(Yes the picture is her new looks and eyes)

Kiana: *Sees the situation after she asked and sighs* I see, I'll ask this nice and I won't repeat it twice, Let the ladies go or else-

Robber 1: Or else what, your just a lady you can't fight us

Kiana: 1...

Robber 2: *Takes one of the ladies as hostage and puts his knife on the lady's neck* Stop what ever your doing or else I'll going to shoot this lady's head!

Kiana: 2......

Robber 1: *Points the gun to her* We said stop!

Kiana: 3

*Bang*

and then within a blink of an eye Kiana closes her distance and the bullet missed and then she releases an horrifying aura that the two robbers witnessed before they blacked out

A few minutes later

We can see the two Robbers being taken to a ambulance tied up as they are screaming as if they saw a horrifying monster with Kiana telling everything about the situation to the police after she knocked out them

Police: I see thank you for you cooperation Ms. Kaslana, thank you for the dishes you made for my daughter's birthday when we are at your restaurant yesterday

Kiana: No problem Sir, It's an very important event for your daughter, I'm just glad I can help

Police: I see, I'll be taking my leave then

Kiana: Farewell

and so the police left with Kiana signing an autograph in a notebook from of the ladies that recognized her and then left the ladies to there own after a farewell

Oh how Ordinary and Wonderful Kiana's life is today

To be continued

Chapter Text

After Kiana walks at the street for a few more minutes, she stumbled at a closed Restobar titled "Chill and Relax", a famous restobar due to it's owner being the greatest chef and barista in town and then she pulls out a key revealing she is the owner and putting the coiling doors up after she removed the locks for the sunlight in the windows and doors to light some parts of the restobar

As she opened it she changes the closed sign into a open sign and then headed to the counter and cleaned some glass cup of different sizes as she waits for the customers the pour in the Restobar while she hums a tune to atleast make the restobar somehow not to quite 

And just as she predicted after 20 mins. people entered and go to there tables and gets some paper that the table provided so they can list the food and drinks they wanted to order as a Huge Menu is at the top of the counter with how much and if there's a discount today

After that a line of people in the restobar gave there orders to Kiana with Kiana getting them and left with the people doing the same as they wait for there order, while Kiana headed to the Kitchen to make the drinks and cook the food that the her customer wanted, on her own

This all happened when she accepted Vestal's proposal to help her feel better, At first she can feel the pain in her whole body and soul, but a whisper told her to let go of the feelings she felt to Mei and so she did, and boy she feels. . .so fine, so refreshed, new, reborn, and stronger with her greatsword that was containing the 4 herrscher gems changing into a different sword form that'll make her remind of this new feeling she felt when she let go of her feelings to that cheater let all of her anger out of her by making Mei's life miserable in her universe by summoning Honkai Beasts to ambush and if possible kill her since she gained atleast some of the powers from the Will of Honkai after her battle with Kevin ended which ended the Will of Honkai as well

That wasn't the only thing that was changed from Kiana, she somehow became very smart and became very, very much good on cooking and has some skills of a bartender, so good that it'll make chefs who spent years on practicing there cooking skills and bartenders perfecting there techniques jealous

Additionally, Many boys and girls that saw her, somehow will fell in love with her in first sight, with Kiana flirting with a few but she didn't get into a relationship so far as she only decides to help those who wanted to date her to learn to date properly and because of that many couples were formed weeks later, making Kiana a person to be asked on how to date someone

But above all that, Kiana became more calm, calculative, and had humility to others, and her kindness and helpfulness never changing and not a perfectionist unlike those who wanted to see perfection on people results when they teach them as she takes some people who wanted to learn how to cook on Weekends, while she opens a Restobar close to the Azur Lane Base with Vestal and Dr. Archives help on building it on Weekdays, with Kiana atleast earning some income from her jobs(With Vestal and Dr. Archives faking her identification papers and license and pulling a few calls and strings for Kiana to live her life like it's ordinary)

Back to the Restobar, after 20 Mins. Kiana managed to give the customers there orders with Kiana seeing her customers satisfied from her cooking which she felt happy as she never knew that accepting her pain will make her this good at cooking unlike her past and lazy self where that sl*t will cook for her and it'll make her happy as that traitor's food tastes good

Another thing that changed when Kiana became something new is that whenever she'll think about that wh*re, she'll call that liar bad things in her thoughts, which she don't mind as she got used to it when it first appear

But that's only the tip of the iceberg of Kiana's bad side which is many than her good side, but it can't be noticed by anyone(except for Vestal and Dr. Archives) due to her RICE technique which stands for:

R-Relaxing

I-Internal

C-Consciousness

E-Effect

Hours later

9:00 PM

After Kiana serves the last of her customers some alcoholic cocktail drinks and left after a few minutes as they are done talking, as if they just finished celebrating since they seem to talk about something while she is doing there order, She closed her Restobar and puts down the coiling doors and puts back the locks for safety reasons and looks at left and then at the right and then she whistled and then a void portal appeared and a bike came out from the portal

As Her Bike came out, Kiana's coat turned into a white coat with her white hair becoming pure grey and black and then something flew from her bike to which she managed to get and then attached to it at her back

The 2 swords that Kiana has now is the new forms of Surtr, With the Ōdachi(large/great sword) containing the piece of Sentience that Fu Hua gave her and the Gem of Haste, While the Wakizashi(side inserted sword) contains the Gem of Serenity, these swords became Kiana's reminder of her hate for that bitch and she'll gladly kill her by using the weapons that sl*t is using

But what about the Piece of Reason that Bronya gave to Kiana, well it's a secret for now

As Kiana starts the bikes engine, a bikers helmet materializes on her head and then she pulls out her phone and saw Vestal texting her some coordinates and the task she needed to do to which she smirk and then she lefts with her bike's engine roaring loudly as it speeds up for Kiana to get to the location Vestal gave her

The Night of Terror is about to begin tonight

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Kiana used her bike to head to the location Vestal gave her, a song started to ply in her bikers helmet causing her to close her eyes 

And she opened her eyes she noticed that the stars are shining brighter than usual with the Moon giving her a smile and the area around her became drawings but atleast they are realistic

As this happened she looks at the traffic lights and saw it was green, with the green light having a face and smiling at her saying she can keep driving to which she did

After a few minutes she managed to reach the location that Vestal sent her, which is a warehouse she parked her bike, with her bike helmet disappearing and then left it there and parkoured to the top of the roof, where she saw Vestal waiting for

Vestal: Ah Kiana your here

Kiana: Yep, So what's our target?

Vestal: According to Archives, this Warehouse is about to filled with two groups of criminals in a few minutes, with one group carrying children that they kidnapped, and the other carrying the money and drugs meaning-

Kiana: A Human Trafficking will occur

Vestal: Correct

Eversince Kiana told Vestal that she is the Sin Hunter, Vestal was surprised that she managed to deduct her very fast but congratulated her nevertheless and asked her if she wanted to join her night hero crime fighting, which Kiana agreed as she wanted to test her new skills, currently this is her 30th mission

Kiana: I see, what' the plan?

Vestal: I'll take care of the children, you handle the bad guys okay?

Kiana: Hai

Vestal: By the way no killing, you might traumatized the kids

Kiana: Okay 

And then a Mask formed to cover Kiana's face and then after 5mins., 4 black cartoonish vans came and entered the warehouse with men with ugly cartoonish faces exiting with many kids crying with cartoonish tears coming out from there eyes 

From there Vestal and Kiana witnessed the transaction happening and after a few more minutes before the transaction ended Vestal gave the signal and from there, Vestal Summoned Oath of Judah, while Kiana took her Ōdachi that was sheath in it's scabbard and both of them crashed the window they are standing on

As Kiana landed she uses her swords scabbard to hit the chests of two man with many of the men who witness that getting angry as cartoonish steam appeared in there heads and pointed there guns at her

Despite there accurate shooting. Kiana manages to dodge them with ease even thou its strange that she can't hear the gun shooting sound, it was supposed to be loud right?

Nevertheless, Kiana never draws her Ōdachi from it's sheath and hits every bad guy in the hands, arms, and neck by using her sheath, with many of the children crying in joy or amazement as cartoonish diamond yellow eyes replaced there original eyes, with Vestal sighing as she is showing off to the kids, which made Kiana giggle

And then after some time all of the bad guys are on the grounds with two huge X's on there eyes with there tongues out, with Vestal telling Kiana did a good job and he can now return to there apartment with many of the kids shouting thank you at Kiana for saving them

Vestal: You really love to inspire people huh

Kiana: I didn't want to, but at least I can inspire them to help other people in a different way thou

Vestal: Yeah, see you back at the apartment 

Kiana: Sure, Aunt Vestal

and then she left the warehouse and get to her bike with her bikers helmet appearing after she made her mask disappear and left the area with the Moon singing praises to her for helping the children with the stars shining showing there appreciation

As Kiana saw this the song she played in her boke helmet ended causing her to close her eyes and open them again and saw her surrounding normal again

Oh how Ordinary her life is now

At Vestal

Vestal: Thank god she didn't get suspicious of me

and then Archives appeared behind Vestal

 Archives: This is the 5th time it happened, Ms. Vestal I'm concerned now

Infront of them was. . .A Bloody Massacre as numerous bodies were on the flood with many blood in the floor with addition to multiple limbs and heads scattered 

Vestal: The Moment we both crashed the window to save the children, I noticed she is going to draw her Ōdachi which made me quickly use Mimicry of Fenghuang Down for the children not to see this bloody dance that Kiana made 

In truth, Kiana didn't knocked the Human Trafficker's, she killed them, brutally   

Archives: Could it be because she played that song in her head?

Vestal: *sighs* Possibly, but the damage is done, take the children out of here before the Mimicry wore off and call the police, I'll burn this place up 

Archives: Very Well

and then Archives take out the children while Vestal takes the hidden Kerosene and Gasoline in the warehouse and pours it at the warehouse while Vestal remembers how Kiana killed these men

She was in pure happiness and bliss as she killed them with no mercy as they screamed in pain and agony before they completely die

Vestal: Her Mental state is about to turn into a Psychotic state slowly but surely, I hope her friends came before everything get's worse to the point that I- no I need to believe that they'll be here, I made this gamble and so I'll accept it's consequences

In her life Vestal made a lot of Gambles that led her here and she made the most risky gamble that can destroy the multiverse itself

As she emptied the gas canisters contents she pulls out a match box and pulls out a match stick and lights it up and throws it into the warehouse, with many fires starting to spread, with Vestal closing the entrance door of the warehouse

A Few moments later

We can see Vestal and Archives starring at the burned down warehouse with many police cars, firetrucks and ambulances in the scene from afar and then the two walk away

Archives: According to you the only way for Kiana to face her 'evil' side fully is to-

Vestal: Find a new lover, who has some negative and positive characteristics in the same time

Archives: And after I told you who that person might be, what makes you certain that she can be the one for real for Kiana?

Vestal: . . .I'll be honest to you Archives I'm not certain that the girl you told me can be the true one for her, I just let fate decide

Archives: Fate

Vestal: Fate is like a gamble, you let your life be decided by it, I just hope this risky gamble I started won't end in a horrible way

Archives: And if it ended in that way?

Vestal: Then I'll accept the consequences, After ll I'm not going to run away from it like a coward

Archives: I see, very well then

and so they walk back to the Apartment where probably Kiana is waiting for then to eat dinner as she already cooked dinner for all of them to eat

To be continued

Chapter Text

At the same night

Meters Away from the town where the Azur Lane HQ is stationed

In a wide grass field

We can see the wind suddenly blowing in one direction with a huge portal being summoned, with Mei, Bronya, Seele, Veliona, and Fu Hua coming out from the portal, wearing normal clothing to prevent any commotion since they are in another world with them carrying some bags that contain some money and extra clothes in case they have to say here a little longer

They Managed to do this since Durandal has the 2nd Divine Key in her possession and with the help of Welt, Dr. Einstein, Dr. Theresa, and Dr. Schrodinger they managed to locate the universe Kiana is

When Fu Hua was briefed about the whole situation while she is away to finish a mission assigned to her by Durandal, she is angry at Mei, but she knows Mei regretted it as she observes her from afar

She hopes that whatever did the Theresa look a like did to Kiana, didn't affect Kiana at all, she is a strong girl after all Fu Hua does her very best to support Kiana and guide her

As they stepped out from the portal Fu Hua, who was given the position to lead the team to find Kiana, presses something in her glasses with a screen appearing with Durandal in it, with Durandal sitting on her office

Fu Hua: We've arrived Overseer

Durandal: Good, find some place to stay and rest, it's seems it's nighttime in that world, you'll need it to find Kiana

Fu Hua: Understood

and then they ended the call and from there they walked to the city, with them staying in a hotel after they pay the money needed to stay for atleast a week after minutes of walking, with them taking a note that there is no Honkai in this universe and with them feeling that there powers are higher before the honkai is gone in there world and thinks that Kiana might've done something to make this happen as if she is waiting for them 

After looking at the internet to see what is the difference of this world and there's, Seele writes the events that happened in this world as a documentation until they decided to go to sleep and continue it tomorrow while they look for Kiana as they close the lights as they sleep in the room which had 3 beds(Mei and Veliona sleeps in one of the beds, while Bronya and Seele shared in one bed) and a couch(Where Fu Hua slept)

Unknown to them Vestal is observing them from afar, after she, Archives and Kiana eat dinner and when Kiana slept with Archives observing them as well

Archives: There finally here, Kiana might've felt there arrival 

Vestal: That's good then, we just to to the plan I made okay, you may intervene if necessary

Archives: Of course, milady

Vestal: *cheeks got a little red* I-I told you to don't call me that!

Archives: But you're so cute when you make that face, and I can't resist to call you that when I said it for the first time I visited the Azur Lane HQ

Vestal: Hmpf, Because of you every shipgirl in the base thinks you're my boyfriend and it took me hours to clarify the misunderstanding you've cause, and now I'm still being teased whenever your going to visit the base to help injured soldiers

Archives: I thought that gesture is still used today

Vestal: *Sigh* What I'm going to do to you Archives?

Archives: Maybe let's leave them be for now, we need ensure that there are no interruptions before our plan begins

Vestal: I agree, let's go

and so they both left them for thy another day is coming

The Next Day

We can see Fu Hua bringing some books that she borrowed from a library close to the hotel with Mei checking the books contents with her, While Veliona is taking a stroll to look for Kiana while Bronya and Seele are checking the internet to learn more about this world while they are being like a lovey-dovey couple, a reason why Veliona leave them be as she doesn't want to be a third wheel to them

There is not a single person that didn't knew(Except from Bronya and Seele of course) that Veliona fall in love with Bronya since she and Seele are one, but now Veliona had a body, she decided to let them be as the feelings she felt came from Seele, not hers, which made her decide to go to the Sea of Quanta to occupy her thoughts, with many respected her decision

and then suddenly Veliona called, with Fu Hua seeing it on her glasses causing her to answers it

Fu Hua: Veliona what is it?

Veliona: I found Kiana, turns out she's popular here, I am heading to her location- Wait a minute, Carole what are you doing here?!

Carole: Eep, Ms. Veliona!

Veliona: What are you doing here?

Mei: Wait Carole is here?!

Veliona: Yes, I'll take her to you guys later be right back

Fu Hua: Veliona wait!

But Veliona ended the call causing Mei and Fu Hua to go to there location, with them leaving the task to Bronya and Seele who starts to take there research seriously so they can help them find Veliona and Carole

At Veliona

We can see them both in a Restobar with Veliona waiting for Carole to answer her question while they are waiting for there order as she just recently discovered it's almost lunch time, with Carole in a stammering mess as she know she is in huge trouble now

Veliona: So care to tell me why are you here in this universe instead of training with the other

Carole: I-I-I g-got b-bored and I a-accidentally h-hear that your going to a-a-another wo-world, so I-I use a de-device to sneak in the area w-where you all teleport and he-here I am, I'm sorry!

Veliona: *Sigh* What you did is reckless, I won't punish you since your Mei's student

Carole: Eek, Please Veliona-sensei punish me instead, Mei-sensei is very brutal at punishing us when we disobeyed orders!

Veliona: You're just overexaggerating, you brought this to yourself-

"Here's your order ladies"

and from there Carole thanked the one who gave there food with Veliona recognizing her voice causing her to turn around

Carole: Wait a minute, your

It was Kiana, and then Veliona looked at the restobar and saw the restobar's name is Chill and Relax, which was exactly what the people said when she asked them about Kiana

Kiana: Kiana Kaslana, it's nice to meet you both, do you need anything else?

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Kiana, who is wearing a bartender outfit said this, Carole just started at her with pure excitement and awe with Veliona facepalming at Carole's reaction but is worried that she might cause a scene with Veliona noticing a lot of changes in Kiana

Kiana: Oh dear, it appears your fan of mine young lady

Carole: H-Hai, who couldn't your the-

and then Kiana blocks her mouth with her index finger and spoke

Kiana: As much as I want a young lady to praise me about my deeds about defeating the honkai, I'm afraid we'll have to hold that topic until all of my customers leave is it okay for you?

Carole: Carole, Carole Peppers

Kiana: Carole, what a nice name

Carole: T-Thanks, I'll keep my mouth shut for now then

Kiana: Very Well *notices Veliona* Your Seele's other self correct

Veliona: Yes, it's complicated, I'll explain it to you later

Kiana: If you say so enjoy your stay here for some time

and then Kiana left them with Carole drinking the Boba milk tea she ordered in excitement with Veliona sighing in relief  as she starts to eat the Cheeseburger she ordered with fries as she ponders about Kiana's aura as it is calm, too calm, sure Kiana's aura when Seele met Kiana for the first time is calm but she can feel something wrong 

With that they waited until the customer left the restobar one by one until the Restobar is completely empty and it was 5 PM when it happened(With Veliona texting Mei and Fu Hua to continue there research and not to continue to go to the restobar yet as her guts told her not to and promised to them that she'll take Carole to them later due to the events that transpired)

As there are no more customers, Kiana flipped the open sign into a closed one and a note stick to it saying the restobar will open again at 7 PM 

With that Kiana sits in chair in the table they are and spoke

Kiana: Since this place can prevent noise from coming out from here you can both speak 

Carole: CAN I GET YOUR AUTOGRAPH!!!!!!

Kiana: *giggled* Sure *pulls out a pen from her pocket* where to like me to sign?

and then Carole pulled out a small notebook in her pocket and gave it to Kiana so she can sign it on a notebook page and gives it back to her 

Kiana: So Carole you're a Valkyrie correct since Ms. Seele is with you

Veliona: I'm not Seele, Bronya managed to split me from her and made a body for me so I go by the name Veliona

Kiana: I see

Carole: Hai, Ms. Kiana I'm part of Valkyrie Squad 3 lead by Ms. Mei

Kiana: Her huh?

Veliona: Hey Kiana listen, we got a video that belonged to Vestal and Mei is worried about you

Kiana: Worried about me?

Veliona: Look she was drunk when it happened and she is very guilty when this Vestal told you about your condition 

Kiana: So that's how you found me

Veliona: But looking at your condition the ritual was already done

Kiana: Indeed, Ms. Vestal told me that my dark side will control over me, but I managed to fight it

Veliona: But-

Kiana: I showed Ms. Vestal that I can fight my darker self despite the odds so don't worry

Veliona: *Sigh* If what you said is true, I'll believe it

Kiana: Thank you

Veliona: You're welcome

and then suddenly some men(5 of them) entered the resto bar, causing Kiana so spoke and Veliona and Carole standing up 

Kiana: If I'm correct I left a note that this place is closed for a moment

Man 1: We don't care serve us some bear, we heard this place is good at giving one

Kiana: If I refuse

Man 2: We'll rob this place of everything

Kiana: Hoh *eyes shined dangerously* I think you've mess with the wrong place

Man 3: You can't harm us since you'll drag these two young ladies to the mess *Looks at Carole and smirks*

Men 5:. . .

Veliona: You stay from my student 

Man 4: Or what-

and then Kiana snapped her fingers, causing the men(Except for Man 5), Veliona and Carole to notice that the tables and chairs are falling in the floor as if the floor is quicksand with the Windows and Doors for entering the Restobar suddenly disappearing except for the room where Kitchen and the backdoor is

Kiana: Ms. Veliona, Carole please leave at the backdoor I'll deal with them

Veliona: What did you-

Kiana: I'll explain later but please leave for now

Carole: H-Hai

Veliona: No you go Carole

Carole: Eh?!

Veliona: I've been itching for a fight for some time now, this'll give me a warm up

Carole: I-If you say so

and so she headed to the kitchen and left by using the backdoor with it also disappearing and the Kitchen entrance blocked

Man 1: What the hell is this place?!

Kiana: So

And then the atmosphere changed into a deadly one with Veliona feeling it covering Kiana's calm aura as Kiana's eyes glowed brighter

Kiana: You have two options, apologize to me and wait until 7 PM so I can serve you or get beaten up like a bloody pulp, what will it be gentlemen?

As they heard this, they decided to pull out there guns, except for Man 5 whose face looked lifeless and heads one of the corners and sits at the floor

Man 2: Hey help us here

Man 5: . . .I don't want be involved and I don't want to leave either, you brought this to yourselves anyway

Man 3: Why you ungrateful-

and as he tried to approach Man 5, Kiana suddenly blocks his way and punched his in the solar plexus, knocking him out and making him crash into the wall

From there Man 1, 2, and 4 charged at Veliona and Kiana, With Veliona using only one hand to face Man 2 and mocking him, while Kiana handled Man 1 and 4

As Man 5 saw this he spoke even no one can listen to him at the moment

Man 5: I wish I can have a Strawberry smoothie 

and then suddenly a Strawberry smoothie with straw on the smoothie appeared beside him, with the mans face not changing as many would be surprised when that happened

Then Man 5 picks it up and takes a sip and noted it's delicious and then spoke

Man 5: Why my life is so miserable, I should've killed myself already so I can see them

after that he continued drinking the smoothie and ignored the fight happening

To be continued

Chapter Text

Within 5 minutes Kiana and Veliona managed to knock out the remaining 3 men, with the room teleporting them outside of the restobar beside an alleyway and from there Veliona spoke

Veliona: So care to explain what happened to this place?

Kiana: Did Ms. Vestal mentioned a 'Nirvana Corridor'?

Veliona: In the video it was Void Archives who said that

Kiana: I see a video was made before the ritual started, well this restobar is the Nirvana Corridor after the ritual for me ended

Veliona: What is the Nirvana Corridor

Kiana: It's a place where you can pull in and pull out people, with the outside world not being affected as the corridor separates us from the real world so it can see what are we doing, it can also manipulate the area by making us walk upside down, can make people stuck on walls and etc., it's like your in a mirror dimension from Dr. Strange

Veliona: What?

Kiana: Don't mind what I said, but 

and then Kiana and Veliona turned around to look at Man 5 eating a burger, and beside him was a empty coke and strawberry smoothie and a plastic cup filled with water and some money and coins on the floor, with Kiana picking them up and counting them

Kiana: Impressive, the cost for everything you ate is what is in my hands now

Veliona: Wait you made food and drinks while we're fighting?!

Kiana: I can't waste a potential to get money and help people, that's what Ms. Vestal thought me, and I control the whole corridor so I can mentally command this place to cook food on it's own as Ms. Vestal said so, can you tell me your story good sir?

as Man 5 finished eating and drinks the water, with those disappearing after Man 5 placed them on the floor, he spoke

Man 5: I have a wife and a little girl, we're living happily in this town

Kiana: What happened? *kneels on one foot*

Man 5: Then one night, 2 Burglars robbed are house, but they killed my daughter and raped my wife then killed her after they took everything in the house *starts crying* I started to find information for those responsible, with those men who are my friends helping me aswell

Man 5: Eventually we managed to track them down and kill them slowly, painfully until there last breath, but I didn't feel anything from doing that, everything I had is always being taken from me

And then Kiana hugged the Man 5, which shocked Veliona

Kiana: Oh what tragedy has befallen upon you! What can I do to help?

Man 5: All I want is-

and then Man 5 whispered what he wanted with Kiana listening to it and smiled devilishly with Veliona not seeing it

Kiana: I see I can do that for you, But may you answer my questions before we proceed?

Man 5: S-Sure

Kiana: Do have any relatives concerned for you

Man 5: None, they are far away and even thou they gave their condolences, I don't want to burden them since they are very busy

Kiana: What about friends except from those men?

Man 5: I have some but they are either married or had successful careers

Kiana: Okay then, what's you name 

Man 5: My name is...

Kevin

As Kiana heard this her eyes widen as he just notice that the man's eyes are blue just like hers but his hair is black with a streak of white his hair and he is wearing a black jacket and jeans 

Kiana: Ah fate is so cruel to you isn't it?

Kevin: Yes

Kiana: What's you're wife's name?

Kevin: E-Ei, Raiden Ei

Kiana: Your daughter's name?

Kevin: Liane

Kiana: That's all I need to ask then

From there she snaps her fingers and everything is back to normal

Kiana: Veliona pls go to Carole, I'll have to talk to this man

Veliona: If you say so

and then she left, with Kiana telling the man to follow her into the kitchen into a secret room 

Veliona felt she should've stayed there, but she's worried for Carole's safety and headed to the back of the restobar and saw Carole crouching down and petting some of the dogs(There are 4 dogs) that was behind the restobar, which are guard dogs due to the chains connected in there collars in there dog houses, with Carole noticing her, causing her to stand up and spoke

Carole: Oh Ms. Veliona

Veliona: Are you alright?!

Carole: I'm fine, when I got here these dogs are growling at me, but I slowly pet them and then they became friendly, did I lost track of time

Veliona: No you didn't we just got finished 

and then Kiana opened the backdoor holding 2 big dog bowls of what seems to be cooked rice that has some sauce with cooked ground pork and placed them in the ground in the dogs range and from there the 4 dogs heading to the 2 dog bowls and started sharing to eat

Kiana: I'll give your seconds later

Carole: A Ms. Kiana what are there names by the way?

Kiana: Oh their names are Bow, Sword, Scales, and Sickle, I gave them strange names right?

Carole: Hai, they even look identical to each other

Kiana: Yeah, I can show you tomorrow who owned those name 

Carole: Really 

Kiana: Yep, this restobar will be closed always in weekends and it's Saturday tomorrow and my Schedule is clear in that day so I can meet up with your mentor and the others, it's been some time since I see them

Carole: Okay, Ms. Veliona lets go

Veliona: . . .I'll follow you shortly Carole I sent you the hotels address in your phone I have to ask a question to Kiana

Carole: Sure

and then she left with Veliona staring at what the dogs are eating and noticed that there are little pieces of black cloth and jeans along with some small pieces of white hair in the food for some time now

Kiana: Is there a problem Veliona?

as she heard this, she back away and summons her huge claw ready for battle

Veliona: W-What the hell did you feed to those dogs?!

Kiana: Ah I see. . .

Then Kiana's hair changed, with her eyes glowing dangerously with her speaking but her voice changed into a sinister one

Kiana: So you noticed?

It was at that moment that Veliona's instincts went overdrive as she sense huge darkness surrounding Kiana

With that it became Veliona's first pure fear as she felt facing the embodiment of malice and darkness itself

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Veliona saw she is was in a very, very bad situation, where she can die or live another day, she spoke in a calm but fearful voice

Veliona: There are small pieces clothes and hair on the food you gave at the dogs 

Kiana: Oh?

And then she looked at the dog bowls for a second with Veliona restraining herself from attacking Kiana, with Kiana looking at her again and spoke

Kiana: You have sharp eyes Veliona, I'll give you that

Veliona: So what you said about your facing your darkside and won is a lie all along?

Kiana: Yes, it took you awhile to figure it out

Veliona: If your not Kiana what are you?

Kiana: I'm still Kiana, Veliona, but not the one you and the others know

Veliona: Huh?

Kiana: After I embraces my evil self, my heart is full of anger and misery after that slut betrayed me, but I didn't let it hurt those who I care for

Veliona: Then why did you kill that man?!

Kiana: Oh Kevin, I didn't kill him as that'll make me a murderer so I asked his consent to kill him why if you going to ask?, I can see he will to live has been snuffed out and anyway to revive that is gone, and to ensure no one can find his body as he wished, I throwed his body on the Meat Grinder after I put him to sleep and cooked it while praying to the God of this universe to ensure he reunite with his family, like a good saint I am 

as Veliona heard all of this she was very, very horrified on how Kiana changed hugely, this is no longer the Kiana everyone knew, it was a devil who wears a mask of the former Kiana that inspires everyone to do good like a angel

Meanwhile Kiana walks closer to Veliona and whispers in her ear

Kiana: Since you saw me like a devil if I'm correct and showing me your fragile bravery despite the situation you're in, stay quite for me until I reveal my true colors to that whore and make her life miserable would you?

Veliona eyes widen as Kiana somehow read her mind

Kiana: Oh dear quite shocking isn't it, this is how a devil shows it's manners Veliona

Veliona: . . .W-What about Carole?

Kiana: Worried about her?, Don't worry I won't hurt her, but she'll be forced to watch how I'll break that sinner little by little to the point she'll hate her for why I become like this, after all she is like me in that pathetic worm's eyes

Veliona: Y-You

Kiana: Don't let your conscience control you mind Veliona, as it'll lead you to tragedy, like how it happened to me okay?

Veliona:. . .

Kiana: Good *pats Veliona's left shoulder and then slips something in Veliona's pocket left pocket* Now off you go and have a safe trip back there and tell to that traitor I say hi and look forward to meet her!

With the Veliona unsummons her claws and left, with Kiana smiling as she is glad it went well

"You know that girl will still tell them right, Kiana?"

and then Kiana turned around and saw Vestal feeding the second batch of food that Kiana made for the dogs which is made from Kevin

Kiana: Veliona, no she won't

Vestal: How are you so sure, Kiana?

Kiana: Because sooner or later, everything she know about what's right and wrong will turn to dust, I can't stand to see her suffer on following the light for too long while her feelings continued to be conflicted

Vestal: I see, you've really changed Kiana

Kiana: And it's all thanks to you, Aunt Vestal!

Vestal: *Sighs* I told you not to call me that

Kiana: Sorry, sorry please don't bonk me with Oath of Judah!

Vestal: Stop acting, and I won't do that

Kiana: *Giggles* I know Ms. Vestal, but you know after I embraced my dark self, I learned something

Vestal: What is it?

Kiana: Walking towards the light won't show you how cruel our reality is as we're going to be trapped into our made fantasy, so it's up to us to walk in the dark to reach the true light and to face reality, even it means to abandon everything we stood for, cause sometimes God misleads us to make us change good or bad and give us a reason to believe him or to curse him 

and then Vestal claps her hands at Kiana and spoke

Vestal: Wise words Kiana, you made me and Mr. Archives proud!

Kiana: Thank you Ms. Vestal, now the prologue is done, it's time to start Act 1 of our play

Vestal: Very well, I assume you've placed it in Veliona for it to begin

Kiana: Of course Ms. Vestal, she's vital to our grand act towards the finale!

20 mins. later 

At Veliona

We can see her entering the room were the others are, with her seeing Mei scolding Carole as she was worried sick about her with Fu Hua watching this happen, with Seele and Bronya noticing Veliona entering

Seele: Veliona are you alright?!

Veliona: I'm alright, what's that supposed to mean?!

Bronya: Seele and I were worried when Carole told us that you stayed behind, did something happened after you talk to Kiana?

Veliona: N-Nothing, I just got too pondered in my thoughts while I was heading back here

Seele: I see but always remember that me and Bronya are here ready to talk to you if something troubles you okay

Veliona: Yeah, Yeah

Mei: Did Kiana said something Veliona

Veliona: She. . .wants me to tell you that she said hi and look forward to meet you tomorrow since me and Carole will go back there to meet up with Kiana

Mei: I-I see

Veliona: So get ready and ask for forgiveness to her okay, it's best if she hears your words instead of mine

Mei: You're right

Veliona: Welp with that out of the way is dinner ready?

Veliona know she should warn them, but everything Kiana told her about conscience is getting into her head and is giving her a headache and somehow giving her relief even it wasn't suppose to 

Hours later

We can see everyone asleep after they eat launch with Veliona sleeping on the couch after she requested Fu Hua to sleep at the bed she is sleeping while Carole is sleeping beside a bed made by Bronya due to her Herrscher powers, with Fu Hua agreeing to it after some time

As she is trying to sleep she suddenly felt something in her left pocket, causing her to pick it and saw some earphones connected to a cassette player with a cassette tape titled

"Devil's Manner"

Filled with curiosity she placed the tape inside the player and puts on the earphones and started to play the some, which will change her life forever

Chapter Text

The Next day

.e..ona...

V.li......

Veliona!

Veliona: Huh?

As Veliona got startled she looked infront of her and saw a worried Seele with Carole leading the others to the Restobar where Kiana will be waiting for them, with them being a little left behind due to Veliona

Seele: Are you alright, Veliona, you've been spacing out for some time, I'm getting worried-

And then she suddenly hears a part of the lyrics of the song she played that night causing her head to ache

'okashiku natte shimau koto o doushite hajiru?'

Veliona: Ugh *puts a hand over her head to massage her forehead to ease the sudden headache she's feeling* I-I'm fine Seele go back to your girlfriend, she needs you more than me

Seele: *Eyes widen* Veliona-

Veliona: Look just go okay

After Veliona almost raised her voice at Seele, Seele decided to go to Bronya, with Veliona feeling guilty for what she did and scowl, blaming Kiana for making her listen to that song which causes her to have nightmares after she listened to it, which led to her situation

As Veliona catch up to them, she saw Kiana who is holding for dog leashes as she is going to take out Bow, Sword, Scales, and Sickle for a walk with Carole greeting Kiana and patting one of the dogs

Mei: Kiana...

Kiana: *Looks at Mei and eyes widen put fixed her composure* Oh Mei-senpai-

and then Mei immediately hugged Kiana as she starts to cry, with Kiana trying calm her down as she kept saying sorry to her with Carole helping Kiana to calm Mei down, which was successful after a few minute, with Kiana promising to talk to her later, as she is going to take the dogs into the park, as she'll meet with her guardian Vestal, which caused everyone to decide to meet her as well and talk to her, except for Veliona and Carole

When they are heading there, Veliona can hear Kiana humming the song that she gave her that caused her headache to return while she reassures Carole that she is alright, with Seele and Bronya looking at her without her knowing with worried faces

At the Park

Turns out Kiana is very, very popular as many people are in the park begging for Kiana's autograph, with Kiana smiling at them with Vestal, who is wearing jeans, a blue coat and white sweater stopping the crowd from drawing even more attention which they respected as Kiana deserve to have a break and left them alone, with the Veliona and the others shocked as Vestal really looked like Principal Theresa

Kiana: Thank you for the help, Ms. Vestal

Vestal: *Sighs* This is why I don't want both of us to talk here at all places

Kiana: Sorry

Vestal: *Notices Mei and the others* I assume these are your friends from your universe

Kiana: Hai 

Vestal: I see, would you like talk to me about the video I sent then, Ms. Mei, Ms. Hua?

As both of them heard there names they nodded with Vestal telling the others that she should follow her at the huge tree a few meters away from them where she can talk to them privately

Naturally Veliona and Carole is supposed to join them, but Kiana told Carole if she can take care of the dogs while she talks to Veliona, with Carole agreeing to it as she thinks it's the reason why Veliona took long to return last night

With that Kiana and Veliona sat in a bench where they can see Carole having fun with the dogs

Kiana: Nee, sekai ga wazuratte iru kyoushin wa 

kenjousha de sae me ga kuramu you na hikari o hanatte iru~

Veliona: Alright you stop right now

Kiana: *Smirks* What do you mean Veliona, I'm just singing-

Veliona: Just stop, the song your humming is giving me a headache

Kiana: So you listened, curiosity got the better of you it seems

Veliona: What do you want from me, Kiana, cause I'll make sure you won't get it

Kiana: Hmm.... I don't want anything from you, Veliona

Veliona: Stop lying Kiana-

Kiana: I'm telling the truth you know, it's not my problem you almost got into a fight with Seele 

Veliona: Wha- Ho- Are you reading my mind?!

Kiana: Seele and Bronya are looking at you in concern while were heading here, and by the way lower your voice if you don't want Carole and other people noticing us

Veliona: What do you mean other people?

Kiana: Ah you didn't noticed?

Veliona: Noticed what?

Kiana: Long story short, Ms. Vestal has the power of use Mr. Archives powers and used Mimicry of Fenghuang Down the moment all of you stepped in the park 

As Veliona heard this her eyes widened

Kiana: I can assure you Ms. Vestal won't harm them, Veliona

Veliona: Tch

Kiana: As for your headache due to the song, it wasn't the song's fault, rather it was your fault for not letting the song into your mind

Veliona: You're words are very cryptic, you know that

Kiana: *Chuckles* You'll figure it out sooner or later, but I'll ask you this, How long will you let your conscience for your feelings and emotions to be in you 

Veliona: You don't know any-

Kiana: Oh I know everything Veliona, the moment you and Carole entered my establishment I can see you're being conflicted by your feelings for Bronya after you got separated from Seele

Veliona: What are you talking about?

Kiana: Denial isn't healthy Veliona, my only advice is that you start ignoring those as it's affecting you or in other word abandon them

Veliona: . . .

as Veliona stayed silent Kiana continued to spoke

Kiana: Emotions are like strings, which control our every moment, making us not free despite what other people are saying, to gain true freedom, what will you do to cut those strings?, Think about what I said Veliona, as a companion

And then Kiana waved at Carole with Veliona immediately putting up a smile so Carole wouldn't notice something suspicious

While that happened, Kiana felt the piece of the Herrscher of Sentience from Fu Hua emitting power, meaning Vestal is in danger as Fu Hua- no the other might've notice what's happening which. . .

is just perfect for Act 1 to progress to end it's curtains and open Act 2 of there plan

To be continued

Chapter Text

Vestal: Well. . .this is unexpected

We can see Vestal sitting in a tree, with many swords surrounding her, ready to pincushion her body at any second

While Vestal is answering some of the questions that Mei and the others, Vestal felt someone was through her illusion and was about to make move, until Senti(As Fu Hua called her) appeared and make them realize that they are being surrounded by a golden shield that Mimicry of Fenghuang Down did so no other people can notice them for sometime and mind there own business

Which bring her into this situation as she sits

Fu Hua: What is the meaning of this Ms. Vestal

Seele: Wait where's Veliona?!

As Everyone noticed this Bronya summoned a laser gun and pointed it  at Vestal

Bronya: What did you do to Veliona?!

Vestal: *Sighs* Good grief, this turned out to very interesting, just as Kiana said

Senti: What do you mean by that?!

And then Vestal summoned Oath of Judah from her right hand, shocking everyone, while Vestal summons the Mimicry version at her other hand and then fused them together making a Two-barred cross version of the Divine key

Mei: What the-

Vestal: It was Archives who is doing the Mimicry of Fenghuang Down and since I'm connected to him I can summon any Mimicry version that he can as his cube is inside me

Fu Hua: . .  I see, where is he?

Vestal: Far from your reach, I'm afraid

Senti: That's bullshit, I'll find him old time-

and then suddenly, multiple chains appeared from the Divine key and surrounded the whole Golden shield causing Senti to fell her power weakened, with the others feeling there powers weakened as well, with the swords disappearing along with the gun Bronya summoned

Senti: W-What the hell did you do?!

Vestal: These chains can seal Honkai energy and minimize it, like how the original Herrscher of Binding used its powers

Fu Hua: So Archives gave you knowledge about the Honkai?

Vestal: He did so I can begin the ritual, which was a success

Mei: You're lying Kiana is still the same person we know

Vestal: That's her mask, Mei, in truth she almost called you something bad when she spoke your name, she can barely restrain herself from calling you something bad

Seele: I-If what you said is true, then is she involved on what's happening to Veliona

Vestal: Correct, thou I cannot disclose what is Kiana's plan with her, I can only tell she's going to succeed from her plan, considering you and Bronya are a little bit. . .blockheaded about noticing Veliona's struggle due to you're lovey dovey moments

Bronya: What do you mean by that

Vestal: Oh I'm sure you knew the answer, but what I can tell you is this, Choose your words and moves wisely when you're with Kiana she might not hold back when you dare to make a risky move and said something sensitive

Fu Hua: Then why are you telling us all of this

Vestal: It was Kiana's wish to reveal her cards to you so she can see what we'll be your next move, so I'll take my leave then if I may, I have an appointment within a few minutes

Mei: Wait-

and then Vestal disappeared along with the chains of Oath of Judah and the sphere causing Mei and the others to see Kiana and Veliona, both waving at Carole, who is taking care of Kiana's dogs as they are both sitting, with them still in disbelief on what Vestal told them about Kiana is true or not

Thou Seele headed immediately to Veliona, with Bronya following her

At Kiana and Veliona

As the both of them are done at waving at Carole, Kiana spoke as she felt Vestal had left

Kiana: It looks like Ms. Vestal's job is done, It's nice to talk to you Veliona

Veliona: . . .

And then Seele came and pulled out Veliona away from Kiana with Bronya trying to stop what Seele from going away

Bronya: I'm sorry about that Kiana, Seele just found out that something was really wrong with Veliona 

Kiana: I understand Bronya, you should follow your girlfriend you know?

Bronya: I should, but what are you talking about with Veliona?

Kiana: Well. . .we talked about something that she is in trouble with and gave her an advice, that's all 

Bronya: I see

suddenly Kiana pulls out her phone as someone is messaging her, causing her to sigh in disappointment

Kiana: Bronya can you tell Mei that I can't talk to her today about what she did

Bronya: W-Why not?

Kiana: I had something to take care of, it's important

Bronya: But maybe you can go and talk to her after you take care of that right?

Kiana: I wish I could but, this might take long as I have other plans to attend today

Bronya: If you say so, I'll text her before I follow Seele again

Kiana: Very well, thanks Bronya for being a very good friend to me

Bronya: Y-Yeah

and then Kiana called Carole as she is going to take the dogs back home, with Carole giving them back with Kiana promising Carole that she can take care of them again next time as she headpat Carole's head, with Kiana eventually leaving, with Bronya sending the message that Kiana told her to tell to may and then she headed to where Seele and Veliona are

At Seele and Veliona

We can see them stopping on a alleyway

Veliona: Seele what are you-

Seele: Are you alright, Veliona?

Veliona: I'm fine nothings wrong with me, look If this is about what happened a hour ago or something, it's not your fault okay?

Seele: A-Are you sure?

Veliona: *Sighs* Did something happened that caused you to act like this, you're the one making me worried instead?

Seele: I-I'm fine, it's just I can feel something was wrong with you when your with Kiana

Veliona: There's nothing wrong I can assure you that, maybe when we get back I'll take a rest for my headache to subside

Seele: Okay then

with that Bronya catch up with them and then they return to the other who are still in deep thought, with Veliona confused on what happened, with Bronya and Seele reassuring her that everything is alright

And when they got home Veliona goes to the bed that Seele and Bronya are sleeping as Seele convince Veliona to sleep there so she sleep peacefully to which it worked

When that is done, Seele and Bronya checked at where Veliona slept last night as Kiana might've done left something to Veliona that could be part of her plan, until they found the cassette player with earphones attached with a tape inside along with the title of the tape, causing them to listen to it

To be continued

Chapter Text

After Bronya and Seele listened to the song

We can see the two of them infront of Fu Hua and Senti as Mei and Carole are asleep after they returned, with the song being played in low volume that only the three of them can listen 

As the song ended Fu Hua in in deep thought with Senti murmuring something on why Veliona would be listening to this song, with her looking at Bronya and Seele, with Bronya trying to calm down Seele as she is very, very worried on what Kiana is planning to her

Bronya: I've already checked the English version of the song and what was it's meaning

Fu Hua: What does the song mean then?

Bronya: It was said that the song is intended to encourage people to think critically and challenge ideas, instead of being led into group thinking - worshipping the same "God" as everyone else and having no incentive to think for themselves.

Senti: Think critically and having no incentive to think for themselves... and instead of being led into group thinking - worshipping the same "God"....

Seele: W-Why is Kiana doing this, w-we haven't done anything to her

Bronya: Seele, Kiana always has a explanation this song could be the only key to finding what she's planning to Veliona-

Seele: T-This is Mei-san fault isn't it, if she didn't cheated on Kiana then none of this would

Bronya: Seele listen to me

and then Seele stayed silent as she saw Bronya's serious face

Bronya: I know that Kiana's change if what that Vestal said is true is mostly because of Mei's fault, but we can't blame all of it on her, we could've stopped Mei from getting drunk or found Kiana first before she discovered what happened to Mei-san, we have a fault there aswell so don't blame everything on Mei-san on this okay?

Seele: I-I'm sorry Bronya, I-I just-

With that Bronya hugged her tightly

Bronya: I'm scared for what Kiana is planning, but we have to be brave, Veliona is strong I'm sure she won't go down that easily without a fight

Seele: Y-Yeah you're right-

Senti: Oh shit!

Fu Hua: It seems it's the only possible conclusion

After Fu Hua said that, the two of them turn around and looked at them confused

Bronya: What is it Senti

Fu Hua: You and Seele

Seele: What?

Fu Hua: Kiana is planning to detach Veliona's feelings

Bronya: What do you mean by that?

Senti: Of course you both don't know, old timer can you explain it to them?

Fu Hua: I'm was about explain it to them Senti *sighs* eversince you both started dating years ago, Veliona started to have conflicted feelings after Bronya separated both of you

Seele: *Eyes widening* So your saying that-

Senti: Veliona has also feeling for Bronya due to you being her, but now that both of you are separated, she starts to be conflicted which is why she goes to the Sea of Quanta to occupy her thoughts

Bronya: Then why didn't she told us?

Senti: Are you dumb, both of you are to lovey dovey, causing her not to talk to you both, literary everyone back in our world knew this except for you two until now

After that the couple were silent for sometime while Fu Hua spoke

Fu Hua: But why would she meddle with Veliona's feeling?

Bronya: Kiana said she gave Veliona an advice as a friend that she didn't disclose to me as she left to attend something important

Senti: Feelings huh. . .could it be!?

Fu Hua: What?

Senti: The song when translated to English has some lines relating to the word abandon right

Seele: Yes they have but what does-!

Before Seele can say anything Seele just got a realization

'Abandon all of your feelings and morals'

Seele: K-Kiana is going to. . .

Bronya: What Seele?

Fu Hua: To Abandon everything you had, I'd never thought Kiana will do this kind of thing, but to go that far will make her earn an ally

Bronya: But why would Kiana do that?

Senti: She must've saw Veliona in her, a person who relied on morals and feelings due to the cruelness of the world

Fu Hua: If her plan succeeded, then our Veliona will change for better or worse, she is either helping her or making her an ally to be an enemy to us

Senti: Having that Vestal own both Divine Keys is already too much, Kiana is playing her cards too well

Bronya: At this rate she's doing a Royal Flush if she's making this like a game

Seele: T-There has to be another way right?!

Bronya: There's none only Veliona can decided the outcome

Seele: But-

Fu Hua: Let's rest for today, we might think of a possibility to beat Kiana on her own game

Bronya: I agree

Seele: Y-Yeah, I think it's for the best

With that they started to rest to clear there minds with Senti disappearing, heading somewhere

Unknown to them Veliona heard everything and was sitting on the bed and looks at her hands 

Veliona: To abandon everything for the sake of being new huh. . .now everything makes sense now that my head is feeling so, so calm. . .Kiana isn't that bad, she just wanted to help me to be me and me only. . . . . . .like a true friend would do to help someone to improve. . .

And then Veliona stands up, and summons one of her claws to open up a portal and then enters it, with the portal closing behind her slowly

Veliona: Sorry everyone. . .

With that she left

Inside Kiana's Restobar

We can see Veliona's portal opening with Veliona exiting the portal and saw it was closed but the lights were open with the chairs close to the counter only remaining while the chairs and the tables are gone, with Kiana placing a drink that has coffee liqueur and cream served with ice in a old fashioned glass, with Veliona going near the counter taking a seat in the process

When she done that Kiana gave the drink to her and spoke

Kiana: That's White Russian it's delicious, trust me and no need to pay I expected you're arrival

Veliona: In what chance do you bet for my arrival

Kiana: 10 in 1,000,000,000,000 Chance

Veliona: I see

with that Veliona takes the drink and drinks it, with Kiana sitting beside her pulling out a flask with Whisky and drinking as well, with both of them putting there drinks in there counter waiting for someone to break the silence, until Veliona break it

Veliona: Let's talk then shall we?

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Kiana heard that she smirk and spoke

Kiana: Okay then Veliona, what do you want to talk about?

Veliona: . . .Why do you want to help me who has nothing to do with you?

Kiana: Oh, this again *sighs and stand up and geos behind Veliona and touches both of her shoulders and slowly massages her back that made Veliona somehow relaxed and almost made her moan since her back really needed a massage for some reason, probably because of fighting a lot of Quantum beasts in the Sea of Quanta taking a toll on her body even it wasn't supposed to do * What did Bronya and the other concluded about my plan?

Veliona: They said you're going to make me abandon my emotions and morale's-

Kiana: Correction reform your emotions and morale's not abandoning them literary, It's like cleansing yourself to become a new

Veliona: I see but-

Kiana: You and are really alike Veliona, falling in love and trying to suppress those feeling due to unfortunate circumstances in our situation

Veliona: *Scoffs* It's just as they said

Kiana: But isn't it true thou, I sealed the Honkai in the moon for those I loved, while you suppressed your feeling for Bronya to make her and Seele happy, our circumstances are different true, but it doesn't decline the fact that what we did is the same?

Veliona: . . .Maybe your right. . .

Kiana: So how's your headache?

Veliona: I'm feeling fine after learning the truth now, it doesn't hurt me anymore

Kiana: Is the song flowing in your head

Veliona: Y-Yes it does, at first it become annoying but now it felt natural for my mind to listen to it

Kiana: I see, then we can begin then

Veliona: Wha-

Kiana: Ms. Vestal you can do it know

The next thing that Veliona knew, is that the counter disappeared along with the lights of the bar and she is now lying in a stone platform with chains from Oath of Judah: Two-Barred Cross Mode, binding her with a ritual circle with unknown markings and candle sticks with candles on them light up surrounding the circle, with a mirror a few meters on top of her, with Veliona seeing her reflection on the mirror

And then she can hear Kiana's voice but can't pinpoint her location due to the darkness that was beyond the ritual circle 

Kiana: Now, now, Veliona no need to fear, otherwise your going to feel your headache again 

What she said as Veliona felt her headache coming back

Kiana: I want you to listen to me carefully Veliona, can you do that for a friend?

As Veliona heard this she gave a nod as somehow when she called her friend made her mind a little bit at ease

Kiana: Good, I want you to sing the lyrics of the song to ease the headache, once you done that everything will be alright

Veliona: N-Nothing will happen to m-me right?

Kiana: Nothing trust me, you can close your eyes while singing the song if you wish, my friend

With that Veliona started to sing the song in a low voice as she closes her eyes, which was enough to the mirror to react, as a pair of luminescent hands started to come out from the mirror and then touches Veliona's face and spoke in a unknown language, which causes Veliona's eyes to open and turn into a lifeless state, while her heart is still beating, with the chains disappearing for the pair of hands to take Veliona inside the mirror

When it was done another set of candles lighten up, revealing Kiana and Vestal, with Vestal wearing her black coat and hat

Vestal: We're now at the Falling Action aren't we?

Kiana: Yes Ms. Vestal

Vestal: Once she became a new, there's no turning back when when we do the Final Act, do you really want her to finish the act with her getting traumatized?

Kiana: . . .When I became a new, you told the consequences of me being a new right?

Vestal: I did, but there is another way, I just need time

Kiana: Fate can change the time given to you, Ms. Vestal it's very cruel

Vestal: I know that but, you can't die just like that?!

Vestal, Dr. Archives, and Kiana made 3 Acts after Kiana became a new

Act 1: Abandonment, which is now about to end as Veliona will become a new

Act 2: Rebellion and Conflict, The next act where Veliona will cause chaos at Mei and the other, and where Kiana will deliver her final judgement to Mei for cheating on her

And Act 3, the Final Act: Betrayal, where Veliona. . .

will have to kill Kiana

Kiana: You said if my darkside completely taken over my body, she can use the Authority of Finality to damage the Imaginary tree and destroy hundreds and thousands of universes and infect them with despair that will create a dark branch in the tree that can infect other branches

Vestal: I know I said that to you, and I made that risky gamble for your sake, so it I had to use my time to save you even it cost my life, I'll gamble it even it damages my universe!

Kiana: Ms. Vestal-

and then Vestal hold both of Kiana's hands

Vestal: I had a lot of contingency plans in case Act 3 won't happen, Have faith in me to save you Kiana, okay?

Kiana: . . . *Sighs* I'll hold on into your word then, Ms. Vestal

Vestal: You know I'm not alone on doing this right Kiana?

Kiana: I know Dr. Achieves is there to help you aswell *smirks* thou quick question, are you both not really dating?

Vestal: W-What kind of question is that, o-of course not he just wanted to serve me since I looked like someone he knew in his past life and to fulfill the wish he made by serving me

Kiana: Like a professional relationship?

Vestal: Yes like that, what reason that question got into your head young lady?!

Kiana: Nothing, just curious

Vestal: I hope you're not planning to do anything about this Kiana

Kiana: I won't I promise

And then there conversation stopped as they were Grey Butterflies coming out from the mirror, with Kiana smirking

Kiana: It seems that Act 1 is about to end now, let's see how this goes

To be continued

Chapter Text

Grey Water

That was the the place where Veliona is drowning in a grey like ocean

But she doesn't feel drowning at all which is weird as she feel air isn't needed on where she is to live

Suddenly she felt being pulled on the surface, causing her to breathe air as she rises from the water

As she done this she noticed she was sitting in a puddle fit for a human, with her clothes not wet and her surroundings like trees that are dead and the soil being grey with only her having her original colors 

When she stands up she looked at the grey sky and saw the sun being an eye ball staring at her, which somehow didn't creep her out or scare her, with many glowing grey aurora lights heading to one direction, with Veliona following it 

After a few minutes of following the grey aurora lights she manage to see where are they going

It was a huge, huge light grey tree that was glowing as the aurora lights go inside the tree

Curiosity got the better of Veliona as she draws near the tree as she is hearing a new song in her head when she saw the tree and hearing a part of it's lyrics

"hyougen yoku mo hibon na sai mo"

"manzen to ikitecha nan mo nan nai no"

"yada yada atashi wa yada"

"nagekedo kawaranu mama"

As she got closer and touched the tree she was suddenly inside a unknown grey landscape with her seeing her memories that she spend with everyone and strings binding her every moment with the song playing in her mind with Veliona understanding it's lyrics 

Veliona: I-That's-

Then she somehow heard a unknown voice

"Why won't admit you're jealous in Seele and Bronya's relationship"

Veliona: I wanted them to be happy, Seele deserves that after everything she went through

"She'd call you a devil when you first manifested when her stigmata activated remember?"

Veliona: She'd apologized for that-

"Because you show her kindness, she is after all the Herrscher of Death"

Veliona: So what about it, she never become The Herrscher of Death after the Great Honkai War?!

"But now you're separated from her, you didn't knew your loosing your powers slowly"

Veliona: What do you mean, and what is this place anyway?!

"We're in the Land of Between, a place that is in the middle of everything, from light to dark, from Sea of Quanta and Imaginary Tree. No matter how you made two different sides, there will be someone in between, the land is where balance and normalcy is. As for what I mean, since Seele owned the Stigmata it's only right for the stigmata to take the power that Seele truly owned"

Somehow it made sense to Veliona know since during her Sea of Quanta travel on killing quantum beasts she felt she's getting weaker a little but-

Veliona: A-Are you trying to say that Seele knew what is happening to my powers?

"Yes"

Veliona: Then she should've done something while I was away right

"That's the point, she doesn't do anything"

Veliona: W-What?. . .

"Veliona why is Seele so protective about you?"

Veliona: . . .

"Seems to me you knew the answer but your trying to deny it"

Veliona: I. . .I wasn't

"Then tell me the reason then"

Veliona: . . .Seele wanted to keep me safe

"And?"

Veliona: And away from battle

"How does it feel to be betrayed like that?, For your powers to be removed to you little by little you protected her before you separated just because she wanted you to be safe, do you also know that Bro-"

Veliona: Stop, please just stop I got the hint just. . .please

With the tears started to come out in Veliona's eyes

Then a she felt a pair of hands hugging her waist from behind and then the mysterious voice spoke again with Veliona managing to control her tears from falling this time with the hands disappearing

"This is the reason why Kiana reached out to you even your both different you had one thing in common, I can help you prevent the stigmata from Seele from stealing your power and gain what power you've lost and the pain you're feeling, if you do this one thing I'm going to ask"

Veliona: S. . .Say it

"Show me your anger that you had to Seele, all of it show it to me, prove Seele that don't need her methods to protect you, and you can do everything on your own and tell that overprotective coward that she can go fuck her girlfriend and scram!"

As the voice said this one by one the string binding Veliona started to break with a loud snapping sound as Veliona's body was engulfed with black energy being released in different directions and destroying some strings, with the voice hearing Veliona's scream of agony, pain, betrayal, suffering, and anger, with the center having a butterfly that is color red mixed with black, with the black infecting the whole butterfly

"That's it Veliona, you've done a good job, now it's my turn to help you"

Then the hands appeared to where the butterfly is, with the hands infecting the butterfly with the color light grey, removing the black conquering the remaining red, with the light grey letting the remaining red be as it conquered the butterflies body

When that happened the last string snapped with the black smoke turning into multiple butterflies, with the voice saying something before the butterflies left

"Aid the one who's holding the cross to save the one that fell into the deepest darkness"

With that the light grey mixed with little red spots left and then disappeared

At Seele, Bronya, Fu Hua, and Senti(Who's wearing clothes where she can blend in)

We can see them heading to the Restobar that Kiana is as Seele felt her connection to Veliona through her stigmata has been severed entirely

But as they arrived they saw something that shocked them

Veliona was there safe, but she wasn't wearing her previous outfit anymore except for the jeans. Instead she's wearing a grey jacket with a red t-shirt underneath with Veliona muttering a part of a song that they manage to hear

Veliona: "Jakkupotto saddo gaaru~"

It was there that they realized that it was already done

Seele: V-Veliona

And then Veliona looked to there direction and spoke

Veliona: Ah look who we had here, the overprotective coward has arrived!

To be continued

Chapter Text

The moment Seele heard that and saw Veliona having heterochromia eyes(With her left eye being red and right being grey), she knew Kiana did something but-

Bronya: Veliona what the hell's wrong with you?!

Veliona: Nothing is wrong with me Bronya, actually screw that I have a bone to pick with you and that overprotective coward!

Seele: . . .Veliona did you found about what my stigmata is doing to-

Veliona: Oh yes, I've learned your stigmata decreasing my power until I can't fight anymore being a overprotective coward you are

Seele: Veliona please let me explain-

Veliona: I've protected you, guided you on how to use your stigmata, hell I've let you use me as your weapon and strength to fight all your enemies for Bronya. And that is how you repay everything I've done for you?!

Seele: I though what I did is for your safety, I feared that you'll get hurt one day after our separation that day

!

Veliona: You see that is your problem, your fucking mind overreacts to the point you made decisions like this, what's worse, your fucking girlfriend helped you without seeing if I'm going get injured or worse in a fight

Bronya: Veliona that's enou-

Veliona: I'm not talking to you so shut up!

And then Veliona summoned her modified claws, which takes a form of a Zhijiatao(Meaning Nail Guards), and launched a small slash projectile in Bronya's neck within a blink of an eye, shocking Seele, Fu Hua, and Senti 

But what more shocking it that no blood came out from Bronya's neck, instead Bronya kneeled to the ground and starts vomiting cocoons, with Gray butterflies that had red dot's coming out from those said cocoon's

This caused Seele to go to Bronya to help cough out the remaining cocoon's on her throat, with Senti looking at Veliona, who's face is neutral after she did that

Senti: What the hell did you do to Bronya, Veliona you've gone to far?!

Veliona: Goddamnit I'm not talking to you as well, do you want me to shut you up as well?

Senti: Make me then! *Summons her sword and uses it as a hoverboard, with Senti also summoning multiple swords and charged at Veliona*

Fu Hua: Senti don't do it!

Veliona: *Sighs* Good Grief, sometime people have to learn things the hard way before listening completely 

As Senti commanded her sword to attack Veliona, Veliona just sidestepped multiple times and dodging them, then shocks Senti by holding the sword Senti uses as a hoverboard as it was going to ram her

When she does this, Senti jumps away, with Veliona suddenly throwing her sword towards to Fu Hua with the tip of the sword about to hit Fu Hua in the stomach

Senti: Old Timer!

With that Fu Hua uses her martial arts to deflect the sword that supposed to hit the wall of a house that was close

That unfortunately didn't happen as the sword pierced Senti's stomach as it somehow deflect the wall to hit Senti, with her and Senti shocked

Veliona: Oh that's going to hurt, like a lot you know Senti?

When she said that, Senti fell in the group hissing in pain with Fu Hua going to her to remove the sword and pulls out some bandages, with Seele heading to where the 2 are so she can heal Senti's injuries as Bronya managed to cough out every cocoon in her throat and attempts to put Veliona down by summoning her laser guns

But strangely she failed to summon them, with Bronya feeling tired when she tries it again, then she realized

Bronya: Those butterflies, they're my honkai energy so I can use my Herrscher powers isn't it?

And then Veliona clapped her hands and spoke

Veliona: As expected from Bronya, fast to analyze the situation quickly, you're correct the reason I done that is to not make you a threat to me for now

Then Fu Hua notices a silver coin on the ground, with that coin close to the wall where the Senti's sword is about to hit, with Fu Hua immediately connecting the dots on what really happened which is supposed to be impossible

Fu Hua: H-How did the coin-

Veliona: Deflected the sword that is so big that it should've been cut into half instead? *pulls out another silver coin and flips it in the air* I simply just put some honkai energy on it and fired it at the sword you deflected that'll hit the wall

Senti: Y-You clever bastard

Veliona: At least I'm using my brain instead of raw strength and power, Oh that means I made you a stupid fool with no brain at all!

Senti: I swear, I'll- *coughs some blood*

Fu Hua: Don't talk for awhile Senti, I'll call for Carole and Mei to help us get out of here while Seele heals your wound

As Seele saw the situation she can't help but cry as she blames herself on why Veliona turned like this

Veliona: Now the overprotective coward is now crying hahahahahahaha so hilarious, what are you going to do now Seele?!~

Seele stayed silent after she healed Senti

Veliona: Silent now aren't we?

Bronya: Veliona, enough you've already humiliated her for being helpless in this fight let her be!

"She has the power to decide if she wanted to continue to humiliate Seele or not Bronya"

Then everyone turned to the source of the voice and saw Kiana and Vestal exiting the Restobar(With Kiana's looks and outfit she is was in the 'New Kiana II' chapter)

Kiana: I'm impressed *pulls out a pocket watch and saw that 5 mins. have passed eversince Veliona changed* you've quite left them in a mess 

Vestal: Along with those sword that are slowly disappearing and leaving some cracks on the road

Kiana: I'll contact someone to fix that but for now-

Seele: Why?

Kiana: Let's hear what our little Seele has to say, so what why are you going to ask Seele?

Seele: W-Why are you doing this, we've done nothing wrong to you!

Bronya: S-Seele

Kiana: Oh Seele dear, you and the other's done nothing wrong, but you done something wrong to Veliona, while the one who wrong me is going to be here about right. . .now!

When she said that, Mei and Carole arrived at the scene, with Mei seeing Kiana's new outfit and looks and was in complete disbelief

Kiana: It's showtime~

To be continued

Chapter Text

When Mei got the call from Fu Hua, at first Mei didn't want to believe it along with what Vestal told her 

Because of this she decided to see the damage herself with Carole following her

And when they both arrived, and saw Senti on the floor bleeding a little, with Seele crying as she is healing Senti with Fu Hua holding Senti and Bronya doing her best to stand still(Causing Carole to head to Bronya to support her)

But Mei is mostly focused at all of this that made her heart drop and froze is how Kiana looked as if she changed

When Kiana saw Mei starring at her, she spoke in a mocking tome that made her shook in fear

Kiana: Ah finally the sl*t had arrived

Bronya: *Eyes widening* K-Kiana

Mei: What have you done to Kiana *draws her weapon*

Vestal: I told you didn't I Ms. Mei in that video, she's been falling to the point she'll commit suicide, I have her consent

Kiana: Besides cheater, I didn't really love you anyway after you cheated on me

Mei: K-Kiana I. . .

Then she said something unintelligible

Kiana: Huh, what did you say liar?

Mei: I'll save you and make you return to us!

With that she charged at Kiana and Theresa, with Veliona attempting to block Mei's way

But Vestal stopped her, as Kiana's  left eye glowed blue as she throws the pocketwatch she had to Mei, with Bronya's eyes widening in shock

Bronya: Mei don't-

The next thing that anyone knew is that Mei is on the ground bleeding heavily as Kiana was behind her with her Ōdachi drawn from it's sheathe with blood in the blood

Carole: Mei-sensei!

Suddenly hummed a part of some song

Kiana: Hitsuji ga ippiki yami no naka zenbu kirisaite ike~

When Veliona heard her singing, she decided to join her, with Mei using her Herrscher power to heal her wounds despite how deep the cuts Kiana made by using her sword 

Veliona: Utsukushii yoru ga akenai no nara suuji demo kazoete miru?

Kiana: Omae ga ippiki ni nattara sono ato wa doushitetai?~

Veliona: Kono ore wa kodokuna ippiki sa ima wa hotte oite kurenai ka

Kiana: Tada omae wa kokou no ippiki sa ima da, toorikoshite yuke~

After they sang that part

Senti: Y-Your are both insane!

Fu Hua: Senti

With that Senti slowly stood up but knelt on one leg as she still felt the stab wound in her stomach

Kiana: It'll be best if you rest you know Senti

Senti: Like hell I will, you abused the Herrscher pieces we gave you to become the Herrscher of Flamescion

Kiana: Abused?

Then Kiana suddenly laughed manically, causing everyone to shiver, even Mei who is now fully healed as she left it's going to rain soon as thunder is rumbling in the sky

Kiana: What a bold accusation Senti!!!

When she said this she was near Senti, Fu Hua, and Seele and released a powerful deadly aura that made the three fell in the ground in pure fear

Kiana: Me abusing the powers that you guys gave me, tell me Senti what did I do to abuse the power you gave me, tell me?!?!?!?!?!

Senti: I-I-

Suddenly the aura disappeared as Kiana smiled

Kiana: Don't worry Senti I'll forgive just this once, just don't say again okay, I can't promise you not to cut you into a thousand of pieces and made you a snack to my dogs

With that Veliona laughed at Kiana's threat, with Kiana leaving them be

Bronya: The power from my core just now Kiana. . . the Herrscher piece that I gave you. . .it's in your left eye isn't it?

Kiana: Yes, Bronya you're right *turns around and her blue eye shined, revealing the core piece that Bronya gave her when she battled Herrscher of Dominance* you're really a important friend to me after all

Carole: W-What the-

Kiana: Ah Little Carole is confused

then she walk towards to Carole while she is still supporting Bronya, with Bronya telling Carole to calm down as goes near her and holds her face gently

Kiana: Don't worry Carole I won't hurt, I just need you to answer a question for me

Carole: W-What is y-your question?. . .

Kiana: Have you ever fell in love with someone?

Carole: I-I do b-but he rejected me

Kiana: It's Adam isn't?

Carole: Y-Yes, w-where are you going with this M-Ms. Kiana

Kiana: What if I tell you why he did that?

When she said Mei's eyes widen in fear as she managed to stand up while using the sword's sheath as support with Bronya shocked at her reaction

This is were Kiana whispered to Carole the reason with Bronya managing to hear it, causing her to look at Mei with disgust and rage

Bronya: Mei what the hell?!

Carole: T-That can't b-be true

Kiana: Oh it is sadly true my dear *sets aside the bangs of Carole's hair aside then left and Bronya as she circles around Mei*

Fu Hua: What did Mei did this time, surely this must be a lie?

Kiana: Oh Class Monitor, I only spoke the truth, It's just when I thought I can forgive Mei that day made me more angry and disappointed after all

She made Adam lost his virginity when Mei accidentally raped her despite Adam's plea's as he loved Carole

When she said this Mei's head is down with Bronya telling Carole that she is alright to stand properly and let Carole run

Kiana: Damn, you wh*re breaking two hearts after you broke my heart, how heartless you can be?!

Fu Hua: That isn't true right Mei, you won't do that right?

Bronya: I knew it that those sakes you brought that day will cause another disaster

Mei: I-I

Kiana: Ah now I know what disease I can make Ms. Vestal inflict to you now heartbreaker!

Seele: W-What do you mean, I taught Ms. Vestal is a doctor?!

Vestal: I'm a doctor but *Places Oath of Judah in front of her(The original form)* I'm also a servant of justice, Oath of Judah: Crossbow mode!

then Suddenly the top part of the Oath of Judah split in half and then the half parts headed to the edges of the cross with a string being formed

When that was done Vestal summoned, Mimicry of both Abyss Flower and Judgement of Shamash(Sword form) and combined both Mimicry's shocking everyone as both mimicry's turned into a beautiful arrow, with the arrow's blade having the blade tip of Shamash, while the rest is seemed to be made from the handles of both weapons

Vestal: Try not to get hit by the Arrow Ms. Mei if you want to live

As Mei was about to do that her instinct told her to block a upcoming sword strike from Kiana's Ōdachi

To be continued

Chapter Text

As Mei does this, a sword fight occurred between them with Kiana smiling as Mei is trying to change her position to avoid getting hit by the arrow that Vestal is about to release 

Kiana: Ho, afraid aren't we sl*t?

Mei: Give back my Kiana!

Kiana: In your dreams you disgraceful wh*re

Bronya wanted to stop them both she really do, but she can't as she and Seele made a mistake to Veliona, With Senti telling Fu Hua not interfere with there fight as she had a plan to make them all escape, all she need is time to do it

But it was then that Vestal released the Arrow as Kiana throws her pocketwatch once again towards to Mei, with Mei using her sword to slash it to half, this time Bronya is ready for the effects on what the Pocketwatch can do as some of her herrscher energy has returned due to Kiana using the piece she gave to her when she became the Herrscher of Flamescion

Because when Mei suddenly hit the pocketwatch, time has stopped completely with Kiana only the available on moving and at least Bronya, who can only move her eyes and speak as her body can't move for now

The only thing that Kiana did is side step so Vestal's Arrow can hit Mei in the shoulder, with Kiana surprisingly head towards Bronya and spoke

Kiana: You quickly catch up as expected Bronya

Bronya: . . .I'm-

Kiana: Don't be sorry Bronya for what I've become, I here to make a request

Bronya: But-

Kiana: Making Veliona side with me is part of my plan and to make her catch a break, I just want you and Seele do your best to win back Veliona's trust, don't. . .let her end up like me, I'm also going to help you both so don't worry okay?

Bronya: Why are you now helping me and Seele?

When she said that Kiana hugged her and spoke

Kiana: Like I said for a lot of times, you are my friend

Bronya: A selfless one to be exact

Kiana: *Laughs a little* Yeah, and most of all you are there for me when that liar left us years ago when the honkai is still around, along with Seele

With that the both shared a little giggle before Kiana broke the hug as she starts to return to her position where she sidestepped and picked up the pocketwatch that Mei is about to slash and opens it

When that happens, the next thing the Mei knew is the Arrow hit her, with Black lines spreading at Mei's body, causing her to drop her sword and scream in pain

Vestal: Apollo's Arrow has strike true now face your punishment, Raiden Mei

Fu Hua: Apollo's Arrow?!

Senti: What's the problem old timer?

Fu Hua: According to Greek Mythology anyone who got hit by Apollo's Arrows will get a disease that Apollo have chosen

Kiana: That's right Class Monitor

Vestal: Although I have the ability to use the arrow, the disease I've chosen will only disappear if you managed to find out what it is and how you can treat it, if you wanted to treat her after all of the sins she'd committed

But it was there that Senti uses her powers to take them out of the area, leaving Veliona, Vestal, and Kiana in the area with the thunder rumbling louder and from there it rained with Kiana's left eye glowing(After she placed her sword back to it's sheath) as she materialized 3 umbrella's and gave the two to Vestal and Veliona as they started to open the umbrella's, with the blood on the area had disappearing at the rain's water took it to the sewers

Kiana: And with that Act 1 is done

Vestal: *Claps her hands* What a spectacular act Kiana, you could've been a good story maker and actress!

Kiana: Thank you Ms. Vestal, I would like to thank you for your participation Veliona for concluding this act with me

Veliona: *Sighs*. . .

Kiana: Well then I'll take my leave as Act 2 of my plan will begin within a few days

Veliona: Care to share me what's Act 2?

Vestal: I'll brief you later, Veliona

Veliona: Very Well then

With that Kiana snapped her fingers as her umbrella turned into a raincoat, with her bike appearing out of a void portal and placed her equipment in the bike and left them as she rides her bike 

Vestal: Now with Kiana gone I assume you wanted to say something to me

Veliona: . . .Yes I have about Kiana

Vestal: I see. . .We'll talk about that later at the location and time I'm gonna give to you on your phone, for now within the very next day I want you to observe these two for me from afar*pulls out two photos with Veliona taking the two pictures* they are my colleagues on the place I'm working at

Veliona: In Azur Lane?

Vestal: Yes

Suddenly Veliona's phone came to life, with her checking it and saw Vestal sending her a message that contains 2 coordinates, with one of them having a time meaning where she'll meet Vestal later

Vestal: The second coordinates is where I rent a apartment for you to live, don't worry about the rent, food, water and cash since I've placed that in your new place to live for the moment

Veliona: I see

Vestal: With that said, I'll make a call to fix the cracks, you may leave

With that Veliona left Vestal as Oath of Judah turned into a necklace that is now in Vestal's neck, while Veliona took out some earphones and connects them to her phone and play a N25 song as she left to head to her temporary home in this world

At Kiana's Universe

In Schicksal's Overseer Office

We can see Durandal listening to the report that Fu Hua is telling after Fu Hua establish communication with them once again, with Amber and Rita listening aswell

Durandal: . . .I see, How is Carole

Fu Hua: She's. . .silent and eats alone, should I also tell how M-

Durandal: I don't want to hear her name for now Fu Hua, she can do anything on her own even she has a disease we have yet to identity

Fu Hua: If you say so Overseer, so what now?

Durandal: Within a few days I'll be there to assist you guys to take Kiana home, even I resort to force and make some risks

To be continued

Chapter Text

The very next day

We can see Veliona escorting Vestal as they both entered the Azur Lane Base that Vestal was stationed, with many shipgirls greeting them while they headed to the Commander's office(With that commander assigned and chosen carefully by the higher ups)

When they arrived Vestal gave the Commander some papers so Veliona can start being a bodyguard for Su and Wendy, with the Commander surprisingly approving it 

After they left the Commander's office, Veliona asked if something happened here before, with Vestal telling her it's a secret for now

Nevertheless, Vestal introduced Veliona to Su and Wendy with them greeting each other, and then Vestal left them to handle something important

It was from there that Veliona take her job seriously, while she interacts with Wendy and Su at the same time in a friendly manner, which surprised Veliona herself as her old attitude had been replaced, but she liked her new attitude atleast now

After he made sure Wendy and Su were at there respective homes safely, she checked the info given to her by Vestal so she can befriend them even more

But after she read there profile, she was tasked by Vestal to disguise herself and listen to what her former allies are doing by infiltrating the hotel they are still in by installing a secret cam that Kiana made that Bronya's Project Bunny can't detect

It was from there that Veliona tested her other abilities that she had acquired from the 'Between' as Vestal advised her to do that before the mission, to which she did and discovered she can conceal her presence and honkai energy completely, like how a background character in a movie does. Additionally she can change her hair color and length along with her eye color

With this Veliona pretend to be a worker that collect's blankets so she can enter her former allies room and managed to place the camera's at specific places in the room that Vestal told her to place(with them turning invisible since Vestal and Void Archives made them) since no one is in the room except for a sleeping Carole who is in deep sleep with dried tears evident in the bed, which made Veliona pat the girls head and placed a new blanket on her, then proceeded to pick up the rest of the blankets and replacing them 

When she got back she began observing there activities and conversations, with Veliona putting notes that she'll give to Vestal as the camera's she'd placed can make her listen to there conversations

So far her former allies are not making any plans with Bronya and Seele staying at Carole's side and keeping Mei away from her, with Fu Hua doing her best to fix the situation with Senti trying to help Fu Hua atleast

Thou even she only wrote a few notes is already enough for Vestal as she thanked her for it as it's still valuable with Vestal saying to her

"If your enemy is physically strong and smart, then you have to fight your enemy mentally and keep damaging the enemies mental state and that is we're you can strike them down"

With that it became Veliona's every day routine for some time while she listens to music to calm her mind or go to isolated places

Until

2 Weeks Later

At night

We can see Veliona giving Wendy a farewell as she finishes another night without anything major happening, with her driving a car that Vestal given to her to take Su and Wendy home a week ago

As she is driving a car she turns on a radio to listen for some music, Veliona's eyes suddenly widen when the car's tires hit something causing the car to flip and crash multiple times with the car exploding as a result with the fire reveling plastic sharp spikes when the car past through it

But when that happened Veliona already used her powers to get out of the car before it happened and luckily there weren't civilians passing by and no CCTV camera's

Veliona: Tch I know your there show yourself!

And from there a figure who was on a roof of a building falls on the ground and landed safely. with the figure coming out from the building's shadow revealing who it is, with Veliona scoffing and said

Veliona: Oh great this why the others aren't planning something because the Overseer's maid is here to assist

The person who ambushed her was none other that Rita who is holding her scythe

Rita: I must say what Ms. Bronya said about you was indeed correct

Veliona: So is the Overseer coming here aswell?

Rita: Not quite, thou I've reporting your activities for the past 5 days after her and my arrival Veliona and dig some intel about them along with Ms. Vestal

Veliona: What about her position in Schicksal?

Rita: Amber was tasked to handle the role for awhile while she bring Kiana and you back home and end Void Archives

Veliona: Pfft, HAHAHAHAHA The Overseer can try her luck then

Rita: With that she tasked me to convince you to return or else I'll have to harm Mr. Su and Ms. Wendy-

Veliona: Oi

From there Rita felt the atmosphere changing

Veliona: If you dare harm them in anyway just to achieve your goals like Otto Apocalypse, I can't promise you won't come back to your precious Overseer alive *Eyes glowed dangerous* so I suggest you turn back and I'll let this slide 

Rita: Then stop and make me then

Veliona: . . .Very well I've warned you anyway so try to survive okay?

When she said that Veliona summoned her scythe that has the same looks of Seele's scythe but the blade is red and the handle is grey 

Rita: Ah I see you won't use your claws?

Veliona: Even I use that I think you'll find a way to counter them, and so the best course of action here is to fight you with the same weapon to get a chance to beat you, given how your a S-Rank Valkyrie 

Rita: Very well then

With that the two charged with both of there blades clashing to one another

To be continued

Chapter Text

Meanwhile 

At a unknown Café

We can see her joining up with Su as they were both invited by Kiana to eat some desserts in a café that was close to both of there homes and to the Restobar

As Su was eating some pudding while Kiana is drinking some tea and Wendy is done eating, Wendy spoke

Wendy: Hey Kiana

Kiana: Yes Ms. Wendy

Wendy: I know this sounds rude but why did you suddenly called us here after Veliona drops us home?

Kiana: Oh I just want to show my appreciation for helping a few months back from my slow recovery after Vestal helped me find my true self

Before Veliona and the others arrived here in Vestal's world and after Vestal done the ritual Kiana's hate was not in a controlled state causing her to be hostile, until Vestal asked for Wendy and Su's help(but didn't told them about the ritual) 

With that Su and Wendy's bond with Kiana was very rocky at first, but with Su and Wendy's determination to help Kiana control her rage and other negative emotions, Kiana become what she is today, A beautiful lady with a good heart and charisma

Wendy: Ah I see

Suddenly Su's phone beeped when he was done eating and after thanking Kiana for the food

Wendy: Who is that Mr. Su

Su: Oh my girlfriend contacted me, she said that she failed to board the last bus since it's midnight

It was there that Wendy and Kiana stayed silent for a whole minute with them staring at her with a unknown expression with Su saying

Su: What's with the both of your expressions?!

Kiana: . . .It's just that-damn Doc I didn't knew that someone will fall in love with you

Su: I have a stable income and she loved me regardless of my status thank you?!

Wendy: But with that aside when did you and girlfriend started dating

Su: A year and a half ago

With that they gave Su a deadpan stare, with Su making confusing scream noises, with Kiana and Wendy chuckling at Su's reaction

After some time Su thanked Kiana and bid farewell to the both of them leaving Kiana to escort Wendy back home after paying for the food

But as they walk home while talking, they saw a blonde woman that seemed to be wearing a military like outfit blocking there way, with Kiana noticing the woman and spoke

Kiana: It seems this is my stop Ms. Wendy

Wendy: Huh?

Kiana: I was supposed to take you home but seeing my client is here, you need to walk home along but atleast we are close to your home when my client arrived right

Wendy: Y-Yeah see you next time Kiana

Kiana: You to Ms. Wendy and stay safe

With that Wendy passed by the Blonde woman and when she got far enough, Kiana spoke

Kiana: So Ms. Durandal fancy seeing you here or should I say sister?

Durandal: Kiana. . .you've changed, just as the reports said given to me by Fu Hua

Kiana: Yeah, yeah so how's being the Overseer?

Durandal: It's. . .a big pain in the ass

After she said that both of them laughed for a short while until Durandal spoke

Durandal: Please come back sister, I'll remove from Mei from Schicksal permanently if I mu-

Kiana: Now, now sister no need for such reckless actions, I assume you gave her a good beating despite her mental state slowly worsening

Durandal: Yes

Kiana: That was all I need 

Durandal: I see. . so the disease that was inflicted to Mei is a mental one?

Kiana: Yep, *Eyes glowed* Ms. Vestal the one who fired the arrow once said to me if you can't beat your enemy physically, beat them mentally until they rather give up in life to be killed by there enemy or kill themselves!

Durandal: . . .Kiana

Kiana: But you know from my time before I have to seal the honkai and become like this I knew Mei won't kill herself you wanna know why, sister?

Durandal: Why

Kiana: Because she can't, even she has the power to do it, as long as she is burdened by her sins she won't kill herself and so I'll exploit that and see how far she'll withstand her suffering until she succumbs to the only option available!

Durandal: I knew your hatred for Mei is deep after she cheated on you, but you didn't have to go far, I've already given her a good beating and humiliated her, you don't need to do this please!

Kiana: . . . *Sighs* I understand how much you loved and missed me both you and Dad, but unknown circumstances had made me decide to stay here until my very last days

Durandal: What the hell are you talking about?!

Kiana: In due time sister all will be revealed 

With that both of them stayed silent for sometime, but Kiana knew what was her Older sister's decision

Durandal: If I can't convince you *summons Abyss Flower in her right hand, with her outfit turning into her 'Palatinus Equinox' Battlesuit and was in a battle stance* I'll have to drag you back by force

Kiana: Choose your actions very carefully sister, you might almost lose someone important to you because of it

Durandal: If you're talking about Rita, I trust her abilities to handle Veliona even she has her abilities improved

Kiana: I see. . .

After that Kiana started to hum a song which was Japanese

"ikite itai yo" 

maiyo nodo wo fusagu toumei no gaiyou 

hai wo mushibamu jitsuzai mo 

rifujin mo kodoku mo uramanakute ii 

sorera subete imi wa nain da 

bokura wa ikiru shikanain da~

The next thing that Durandal knew is that she and Kiana are falling in a portal and are in a forest free falling as Kiana teleports them away from the streets to prevent unwanted casualties

But Durandal notices that Kiana has all of her weapons ready with Kiana saying

Kiana: Then force me back to our world then sister~

With that Kiana pulled out her Wakizashi with the blade transforming into a modified M1 Garand(The one in Hellsing Ultimate) and pulled the trigger, with Durandal to use Abyss Flower to dodge the bullet that pushed her away to Kiana and crash into the ground, while Kiana landed safely with her gun reloading by itself and then returning back to it's original form and put it back to it's sheath and immediately draws her Ōdachi

Why?

Because Durandal charged at Kiana while destroying some trees in the process with there weapons colliding 

To be continued

Chapter Text

Minute's Later

Back at Veliona

We can see her sitting in a car that wasn't destroyed, while she looks at Rita who's arms were hanged in a streetlight and her body hanging in the air with blood on her head and her weapon destroyed along with some cracked cocoons with Grey Butterflies coming out and flying away

Veliona: Sheesh you gave me a hard time Ms. Rita *looks at Rita's phone where she texted Fu Hua to pick Rita up and then looks at the smoke and loud crashes in the forest miles away from the town* with that said I'll take my leave, Ms. Vestal will be angry at me if Kiana got injured 

By the time Fu Hua and Carole arrived at the scene Veliona had disappeared

Meanwhile at Kiana and Durandal 

We can see multiple craters or different sizes and trees  that have bullet holes or destroyed due to them being slashed, burned or punched by Kiana's sword or Durandal's strength, with Durandal using Abyss Flower to pin Kiana with huge vines as she managed to separate her main and secondary weapon after there latest clash

But when Durandal managed to successfully do that, multiple void lances appeared behind Durandal causing her to summon KING to to deflect all of them and when Durandal looked at where she pinned Kiana, she was gone with the vines destroyed with the vines destroyed and immediately summoned QUEEN to protect herself from Kiana's ōdachi that is bursting in flames and successfully blocked the attack

Kiana: Your skills never waned despite being the overseer, let's see how long will you last now!

Durandal: Now don't get cocky, it might be your downfall

Kiana: I'm not!

With that Kiana jumps away and used her wakizashi turned modified M1 Grand as she used the piece of Reason in her left eye to do it and fired a few shots, causing Durandal to use Queen to protect her from those shots with Kiana circling Durandal in a far distance and fires some shots as she done that, causing Durandal to get hit by several bullets in the arms, legs, and stomach with Durandal using Abyss Flower to make a dome of vines to cover her so she can use her divine key to heal herself

When Kiana saw this she fired her modified M1 Grand with the bullets that are being fire are Incendiary ammunition, causing the dome of vines to start burning upon the impact of the shots, with Kiana charging at the dome as she returns her wakizashi and use her ōdachi to destroy the dome

This caused KING and QUEEN to try and stop Kiana by charging at her, only for them to be destroyed as Kiana did a few jumps and slashes them with her ōdachi in a short time since Durandal is healing herself thus weakening her connection to KING and QUEEN and weakening them as well

But when Kiana slashed the dome of vines as her ōdachi emitted fire, Durandal isn't there anymore and the next thing Kiana knew when she turned around to see Durandal in front of her, she was stabbed in the stomach by KING and QUEEN who is at her left and right respectively with there weapons, causing Kiana to cough a decent amount of blood

With Kiana's body stuck in the two weapons, Durandal goes near Kiana's bleeding body

Durandal: I hope this doesn't have to be this way sister

Kiana: I know

Durandal: *Gets confused at her sister's answer* What-

Kiana: Which is why I would like to apologize in advance for this

Suddenly Kiana's body disappeared revealing that KING and QUEEN hit Kiana's ōdachi, with Durandal quickly turning around as she felt Kiana's presence behind her

And when she did that she was stabbed in the stomach by Kiana's wakizashi with the blade glowing brightly, with Durandal suddenly coughing out blood and uses Abyss Flower to stand as Kiana removes it and heads to her ōdachi where KING and QUEEN disappeared due to injury Durandal received from Kiana's surprise attack 

As Kiana puts her weapons back to it's respective sheath's, Durandal tried to heal herself from the stab wound that Kiana inflicted, but no matter how she tried, the wound won't close

Kiana: The blade that I used to stab you has the Gem of Serenity in it sister and so I put a time count on when the wound can be healed 

When she said that Durandal's eyes widen in shock as she underestimate her sister's strengths 

Kiana: But with that aside sis I must say it's was fun while it lasted so have a goodnight!

With that Durandal blacked out

As Durandal blacked out Kiana sits in a tree stump as she tossed her weapons in a void portal with Veliona arriving

Kiana: Your late Vel

Veliona: I know that and don't call me Vel

Kiana: Aww are you embarrassed?

Veliona: I'm not just like my full name to be called and don't you dare call me that in public many people could get the wrong idea

Kiana: Yeah yeah

Veliona: Be glad Ms. Vestal set up a sound and illusion barrier in this place and Durandal managed not to find out or else people will start suspecting *sighs* but now about the forest-

"Me and Archive's will take care of the damages in the forest

It was then that Vestal and Void Archive's appeared from Kiana's void portal 

Veliona: Did you just-

Kiana: I gave Void Archives one Void Portal that he and Aunt Vestal can use to teleport to any area they want

Vestal: *Sighs* I told you not to call me that for the nth time good grief

Veliona: See even Ms. Vestal doesn't want to be called something they don't want to be called

Kiana: But it wasn't even a nickname?!

Vestal: Let her be Veliona 

Veliona: And here I thought you'll side with me

Vestal: I don't side with anyone in a simple bickering and besides it was only you who don't want to be called Vel

Veliona: You too Ms. Vestal?

Vestal: I see now problem calling you that

Archives: All right we're getting off topic what's the next course of action then Kiana?

Kiana: Next course of action huh

Suddenly Kiana looked at Vestal, causing everyone to do the same with Vestal saying

Vestal: . . .I'm going to be used as a bait again aren't I?

Kiana: Yeah. . .I'm so-

Vestal: Fuck yo-

Days Later

At the Azur Lane Infirmary 

It's a beautiful day to have some fun, the birds are chirping in the trees(or the sakura ones), flowers are blooming in the garden area of the base and at the park a few meters away from the base, on days like these Vestal should might've taken a day off and leave Dr. Su to do the paperwork so she can sleep in the apartment she, Void Archives and Kiana are sharing to get some rest and possibly attend one of Void Archives classes to see how he interacted with his students . . . 

But Instead she had to interview a person that wanted to apply to be a doctor in this base that was recommended by the Higher Ups due to her skills and attitude, and what's worse it was Kiana's sister who is taking this interview, Kiana should be glad that Vestal didn't object the plan, but is currently cursing Kiana in her mind and probably Kiana is giggling at Vestal in her Restobar

Thanks to Veliona's work on planting the secret cams in the room Durandal and the others are Veliona found out that Durandal planned to infiltrate Azur Lane to gain some intel about Vestal, Void Archives, and Kiana and use it to there advantage incase she failed to convince Kiana by talks or force by being a doctor or at least a part time since she had experiences on being one in a bubble universe before she got the 2nd Divine key from SU as he was testing her that time

With this Veliona send the recording to Kiana before she engaged Durandal that night 

Which put Vestal in this situation as Kiana told her to keep and eye on her, with Void Archives agreeing to Kiana due to what she and Void Archives did at the base to save humanity from the sirens by killing those men that day with Wendy and Su's help might be discovered by Durandal by a chance and use it

After Vestal read the resume and application form given to her she looked at Durandal who is wearing casual clothing and then sighed

Vestal: I'm impressed you are Harvard Medical School graduate and you are fit to work here but I would like to ask you a question, Bianka Abigail?

Durandal: S-Sure what is it Ms. Vestal?

Despite Durandal using a cover up name and acting Vestal can see through her acting but it could fool someone like Dr. Su if he is the one who will interview her atleast so she'll give her credit for that

Vestal: Why do you want to work here, being a medical officer here will put your life here at risk due to a possibility of a Siren Attack and you might be deployed in the frontlines where you can be on a crossfire from a human-siren battle while you are tending some of the soldiers, thou you'll be thought to defend yourself while you are here, the possibility of dying in a situation like that is high along with the other soldier, are you sure you would like to work here Ms. Abigail, where you can't save everyone?

After she said that Durandal stayed silent for about 2 mins. until she spoke

Durandal: I wanted to help a lot of people Ms. Vestal to the best of my abilities, it's true I can't save everyone but atleast somehow I wanted to be with my patients in there final moments, I've heard a lot of stories from different people who'd left the war after getting traumatized saw a lot of horrors of how there comrades died who they treated as there second family. But if there is a chance they can still be saved I'll save them, even at the cost of my life 

When she is done Vestal sighs and and then smiles at her if she is acting then two can play the game

Vestal: Very well then, you're accepted here Ms. Abigail, welcome to Azur lane one of the most difficult jobs you'll ever experience in you life I hope you give your all just as you said

Durandal: I will, Ms. Vestal

With that they both stand up and shake hands

After that Veliona entered the Infirmary with Dr. Su and Wendy with Dr. Su and Veliona greeting Vestal until they noticed Durandal

Wendy: Your the person Ms. Kiana and I saw a few days ago

Durandal: Ah yes, she is a friend of a friend of mine and is the one who helped me to get a application to work here as a doctor

Wendy: Ah I see

Dr. Su: So you're our new member in the Azur Lane Infirmary, I'm Dr. Su

Wendy: I'm Wendy

Veliona: And I'm there driver here to the base Veliona

Durandal: Nice to meet you all, I'm Bianka Abigail I hope we can all work together

With that Durandal started her day after Vestal gave her a doctor's coat and an ID that was given to Vestal incase she passed the interview with the symbol of Azur Lane in the coat and ID and with that they get to work

Hours Later

12: 30 PM 

At the Azur Lane Garden

It was Breaktime for everyone working in the infirmary and so Veliona who's job rather than escorting Dr. Su and Wendy to the infirmary is to bring the paperwork that Vestal and the other finished and then bring back some paperwork that they needed to sign up which was gladly only small and become a body guard to the infirmary incase someone tried to attack them

And since it's Veliona's breaktime she is now sitting in one of the benches of the garden where she can see the beautiful flowers and watch the fountain in the middle of the garden where she can eat the sandwich Kiana made for her, Vestal, Void Archives, and for Dr. Su and Wendy as extension to her gratitude

As Veliona takes a bite she spoke

Veliona: It really taste good, how she really made this without killing me is a miracle

"And I still can't believe she can cook something like that, she might've made me and her whole family lineage jealous that she is the only Kaslana that can cook without burning or making a monstrosity in the food"

With that Veliona turned around to see Durandal holding a Burger that she'd buy from the cafeteria of the base

Durandal: May I sit with you Veliona

Veliona:. . .Of course, Durandal

As she said this she takes a seat and there was a eerie amount of silence

To be continued

Chapter Text

It was there Durandal spoke to cut and dissolve the atmosphere 

Durandal: How is my sister?

Veliona: . . .She's doing pretty well if you ask me *takes a bite at the sandwich once again* she'd improved and is a great tactician now

Durandal: I see. . .

Veliona: *Sighs* Look the only advice I can give is try not to do something stupid, your not part of the plan Kiana is making, and if you get yourself involved Kiana had multiple countermeasure plans against you

Durandal: Then what is she planning so bad she didn't want me to be involved with?

Veliona: I don't know her endgame, only Lady Vestal and Void Archives knows that since I was only given the 2nd part of the plan to which I won't disclose aswell

Durandal: Is that so?

Veliona: Yes *Takes another bite* so you can only take a guess what the 2nd part of the plan is since you started it when you arrived here 

Durandal: *Eyes widen* What do you mean by that?

Veliona: You'll find out eventually

With that she took another bite and stayed silent after that with Veliona thinking about talking to Kiana if she can cook something delicious for tomorrow she can take here as her lunch with her eyes suddenly changing into a different color, causing Durandal's eyes to widen

Back at Mei and the others

After the move Kiana did to Mei, Mei started to distance herself to everyone which made a huge gap in her teacher-student status with Carole eversince she found out Mei accidentally raped Adam, with Bronya reassuring Seele that they'll find a way to apologize to Veliona

As for Fu Hua she is trying her very best to keep the team from being torn apart with Senti doing her best to help her as well which shows slow but promising progress at least despite Mei getting injured severely by Durandal for what she did to Adam, and her and Rita returning here injured after they tried to confront Kiana and Veliona respectively 

Nevertheless Fu Hua stands up after she detected that the food she's cooking is ready and she started to call everyone so they can eat, with as always Mei not coming to eat, which caused her to pick up a plate to put some food for Mei to eat while Rita distributed the food so that everyone can eat equally

But when Fu Hua made her presence and goes closer to Mei, her instincts screamed at her that something was wrong causing her to toss the food in the air to avoid a incoming lightning strike aimed towards her with the lightning spreading into the whole room and also through the whole hotel they are in, alerting everyone while they are starting to eat, with Bronya, Rita and Senti arriving to where Fu Hua is 

Bronya: Mei what the hell are you doing?!

Mei: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry

As Mei continues to say this her Herrscher powers starting to go out of control with everyone suddenly hearing Veliona's voice from the hotel's speaker

Veliona: Well, well, well who knew that the disease Lady Vestal inflicted will start to get worse inside Mei

Bronya: Veliona?!

Rita: Lady Durandal told us that the disease inflicted to Mei is a mental one as it was disclosed by her sister yes Ms. Veliona?

Veliona: Correct 

Fu Hua: So if it's regarding to Mental health what mental disease was inflicted to Mei?

 Senti: Let's check what's inside her mind to find out then

Bronya: Wait don't-

But it was too late as Senti activate Herrscher powers to enter Mei's mind, only for Senti to scream in pain after a few seconds with Fu Hua catching Senti before she fell into the ground, with Senti barely conscious

Fu Hua: Are you alright?!

Senti: I-I'm fine old timer, b-but we had a much bigger problem 

Fu Hua: What is it

Senti: Mei is seeing illusions of Kiana, Carole, and Adam with those illusions telling her many, many bad things

Rita: *Eyes widen* Paranoia

Veliona: Ding, ding, ding, Lady Vestal wanted the same thing that Mei slowly felt when her father was falsely accused that caused her to start the Nagazora Eruption to occur but much worse

Fu Hua: So Mei is now experiencing the 2nd type of Paranoia, Delusional disorder

Bronya: If Mei lost control of her powers then she'll bring the whole Hotel to the ground and kill people!

Veliona: Oh Sorry to be the bringer of bad news but your the only people in the hotel 

Bronya: What do you mean by that?!

Veliona: While you are waiting for your food to be cooked, I set off a fire alarm for all of the residents in the hotel to leave but prevented you guys from hearing it, and then placed a few bombs in the hotel that will cause to explode in about. . .1 minute while we are speaking so you only have 20 or 10 seconds at most 

This alerted everyone with Bronya heading to where Seele and Carole are with then exiting the hotel room where they saw no people inside

Veliona: And for the record when the bomb exploded just be prepared to face Mei's paranoia until Durandal can find your true location

Rita: What do you-

But before she can finish her sentence the bombs detonated causing the hotel's structure to be destroyed with the explosion blast almost reaching Seele and Carole, with Carole summoning her gauntlet mechs to protect them from the blast with Bronya trying to reach them 

Only for the Explosion blast to stop reaching them and retreating for some unknown reason that confused the three of them 

But as the Explosion retreated Veliona appeared from the explosion with her snapping her fingers causing the hotel hallway to change

(Imagine the hotel room hallway changing like this)

As for Fu Hua and Rita they saw the floor extending, causing them to be so far away from Mei with Kiana appearing when Mei's distance from them is long enough with Kiana going close to Mei's ear and said

Kiana: You want my forgiveness right?

Mei: Yes, I'm sorry, I'm so very sorry

Kiana: Then give into the consequences of your actions okay Mei?

With that she place some earphones into Mei's ear and pressed a tape connected to the earphone with the tape playing a song in her ear with the title 'Venom(N25 Version)' 

After this Kiana spoke

Kiana: I welcome you all to the Nirvana Corridor, enjoy your stay

With that she disappeared, with Rita, Fu Hua and a recovered Senti in there battle stance to prepare for the worst

To be continued

Chapter Text

At Carole, Seele, and Bronya

As they saw Veliona, they prepared there weapons and are on high alert as they don't know what place are they are now since this is Veliona and Kiana's territory

Veliona: Hmm still staying strong and silent  I see

Seele: What do you want Veliona?

Veliona: Ah finally the overprotective coward was the first one to spoke very well, as to answer my question I'm just here to prevent you 3 from helping the other 3 in the room where Mei also is, by now Kiana is done at her objective

Bronya: Kiana is here?!

Veliona: Yes after all she used the Nirvana Corridor to trap you all here 

Carole: Nirvana Corridor?

Veliona: Yes Carole, you see this is place where Ms. Vestal and Mr. Archives did the ritual so Kiana can become a new, but at first I thought it was only the Restobar but then Ms. Vestal told me a little secret 

Seele: W-What is it?

Veliona: When the ritual worked, Kiana's powers expanded and it affected the Nirvana Corridor meaning that Kiana can anywhere she wants with the Restobar being the main core of the corridor

Bronya: *Eyes widen* The Restobar was in the center of the town it means that-

Carole: The whole town is in the Nirvana Corridor's range

Veliona: Bingo, now with enough talk it's time to separate you from the other

With that she snaps her fingers causing the walls in the hotel that are keep moving to rise revealing the parts of the hotel are floating with the floor they are standing being split up, causing them to jump in separate areas that was floating , with the gravity in the Nirvana Corridor working in mysterious ways as Carole is now standing in a platform upside down while Seele is standing sideways

As this happened the door to where Rita, Fu Hua, Senti and Mei closed and began to distance itself away from everyone, causing to 3 to try and reach the door with the elevators of the hotel going up, down, sideways and diagonal preventing them from reaching the door as it's distancing it self from the 3 in a fast pace

While this is all happening Veliona pulled out the sandwich and takes a bite to which no matter how she wanted to stay silent was totally delicious and is just moving her free hand to keep the 3 at bay

"It's delicious isn't my friend?"

 This caused Veliona to almost choke if it wasn't for her swallowing the bite she took in time and looked beside her to see Kiana 

Veliona: W-What the hell Kiana?!

Kiana: *giggles* Sorry about that you really look beautiful in any expression you make

Veliona: Flattery will get you nowhere

Kiana: I know that but I'm serious you really are beautiful my dear friend

Veliona: *A faint of tint red appeared in her cheeks* J-Just shut up Kiana!

With that she continued to eat her sandwich as Kiana snickered 

If Veliona is here at the Nirvana Corridor than who was the one eating lunch with Durandal at the park ?

A few minutes ago

Meanwhile at Durandal and at Veliona(?)

As Durandal saw Veliona(?) eyes she spoke with malice

Durandal: Void Archives

When she said this, Void Archives shows his original form after he glitched 

Archives: Took you long enough to figure it out

Durandal: How did you get here?!

Archives: Turns out the school I'm working with had to finish early and so I met Veliona before she headed here and told her the next step of the plan since I informed Kiana earlier on 

Durandal: Were are they?!

Archives: I won't tell you contact your allies if you want to know

Durandal: You-

But before she can speak further Vestal came and spoke

Vestal: Oh Archives what a surprise, what happened?

Archives: School finished early due to something and can't I visit the one who'd helped me a lot when I got here in town?

Vestal: Of course not *giggles* did you ate the sandwich Kiana gave you?

Archives: Yep it's really delicious, your ways of helping her cook payed off well

Vestal: Yeah, I'm so very proud of her*notices Durandal* Oh Abigail this is my friend and associate Mr. Archives, and Archives this is the newest member of the infirmary Bianka Abigail or have you both introduced yourselves to each other?

Durandal: N-Not yet Ms. Vestal we were just having a small chat earlier thou I almost thought that Mr. Archives was old since he talks like a wise man earlier, I-I apologized if  somehow offended you from my words Mr. Archives

This caused Vestal to almost laugh on sight to which she managed to control herself and Archives having a tick mark in his forehead to which immediately disappears as breathes heavily and then releases a sigh and spoke

Archives: I've some of my students calling me that by accident so no need to apologize Ms. Abigail

Durandal: I see thank you

Vestal: Now with that out of the way, Lunch time is almost done do finish what you needed to do Durandal before we go back to work okay

Durandal: A-About that can I have a leave fore an hour?

Vestal: Eh, on your first day why should I give you one?

Durandal: S-Something came up, it'll be only awhile Ms. Vestal I promise

Vestal: *Sighs* Fine, we have no patients after and hour when our Lunch time ended today but I'll cut your salary that you'll get today a little so you better work hard tomorrow to get your full salary okay

Durandal: Yes Ms. Vestal

Vestal: You have one hour then go

With that Durandal left the 2 and as she completely left Vestal spoke

Vestal: I presume Kiana intact the plan early?

Archives: Yep

Vestal: What I'm going to do with that girl

Archives: *Giggles* It's your fault that you thought her how to plan in advance and if she could start it early or late to conceal the surprise attack

Vestal: Yeah, your right nevertheless I'm very proud of her

Archives: Are you sure you don't want to be her mother officially?

Vestal: Do you think she will accept me as her mother?

Archives: We'll see about that soon

Vestal: I'll take you to the infirmary so you can greet Wendy and Su

Archives: Sure

With that they headed to the infirmary as well 

To be continued

Chapter Text

"According to the plan for Act 2 as Lady Vestal you wanted me to cause confusion, anger, and unnecessary conflict in the group while you give your final judgement to Mei despite her having Delusional Disorder due to Lady Vestal's Apollo's Arrow so how is this making Act 2 progress if you only told the truth and let Mei got paranoia Kiana?"

That was the question that Veliona asked to Kiana as they watch Bronya, Seele, and Carole struggle to reach the door where Rita, Fu Hua and Senti are in as Mei is also inside there with multiple flashes of lights in the door as it was closed meaning there fight is starting

Kiana: Is that all you wanted to ask Veliona?

Veliona: Not to be rude really but I'm curious as I only done is to report every action they are doing from the camera's I've placed and then this so how did I do anything in Act 2 plan?

Kiana: Ah *Chuckles* I see, I see that's what you meant, well if I'm correct *checks her watch* Mr. Archives had already told Big sis about something happening to them and so she'll be finding them until she can pinpoint the exact location and so our job here is to wait for Durandal's arrival so we can prevent her from destroying my Nirvana Corridor

Veliona: I-I see but-

Kiana: And to add up you'll see after Durandal stopped Mei's rampage so anything else my Veliona~

Veliona: . . .None- wait did you just call me 'my Veliona'?

Kiana: Is there a problem with that or do you want to call you milady?~

Veliona: Your flirting as I said for the nth time won't work on me

Kiana: And you still answer me despite my flirting with you milady~

Veliona: S-Shut up dummy-

As Veliona said this her eyes widen as she made a crucial mistake on saying that with Kiana smile widening and said

Kiana: Oh what's this Veliona calling me a dummy, I'm so honored to be called *goes near Veliona's left ear and spoke* Veliona's silly dummy that can reveal her hidden emotions-oof

Suddenly Kiana got hit in the forehead by a pillow that was travelling in the Nirvana Corridor as Veliona turned into a blushing mess 

Kiana: Aww My Veliona is now acting like a tsundere I love this side of you now~

Veliona: I-I'm not a tsundere!

Kiana: Nah you are one and with this I might take you to a date very soon after this!~

This time Kiana managed to dodge multiple pillows chairs, tables and cabinets that are heading towards her by Veliona as she covers both of her hands to hide her faces which is releasing some smoke due to her being very embarrassed

Kiana knew that she can use her authority over the corridor to stop the object from hitting her but she just loved to see the reactions she's getting from Veliona as they are so priceless and she won't trade to anyone 

She'll really take her to a date when this part of the plan was done

At Durandal

We can see her arriving at the hotel where  the other are only to find the floor they are in flames as according to the firefighters that where there putting out the flames a bomb detonated in the floor but it seems someone triggered a false alarm to evacuate everyone

This made Durandal glad that no one is hurt, but worried to where the others are since they aren't here outside despite her looking at her watch that shows everyone's heartbeat with Mei's acting a little bit weird along with the heartbeat of Rita, Fu Hua and Senti meaning Mei is interfering with the device she gave them since Bronya, Seele and Carole's heartbeat are fine and aren't acting out

With this she tried to contact the others as she left the hotel and headed to the highest building in the town that was close to the hotel they were supposed to be by activating her hidden battlesuits stealth capability that was in her outfit(Which was the battlesuit itself in disguise mode except for the doctors coat that Vestal gave her)and it was there she managed to get into contact with Bronya

Bronya: Ms. Durandal is this you?!

Durandal: Yes it's me where the hell are you both

Bronya: We don't know but I need you to listen to me so you can find us, Ms. Rita are in danger

Durandal: What's the situation then?

From there Bronya explained that the disease inflicted to Mei was Delusional Disorder and they are in a area called the Nirvana Corridor as they were transported there before the explosion in the hotel happened with Kiana's Restobar as the main core of the corridor

When Durandal suggested to destroy it, Bronya told her that it will lead to numerous casualties as the Restobar is in the center of the town meaning it has the control over the city and if it was destroyed it'll cause unforeseen forces to destroy the city as well

Because of this Bronya advised Durandal to head to the Restobar and use the 2nd Divine key to touch the core and find them by using the core as a starting point as the Nirvana Corridor seems to work as a little section of the Sea of Quanta and after she said this they cut communications so Durandal can start looking for Kiana's Restobar with her checking her watch and grunted as she only had 40 minutes left 

She had to quickly find them before all of her comrades get into trouble

But she one of the things that worried her the most is Raiden Mei, as she had trained very well to become stronger and since in this world Mei can feel her Herrscher powers at full strength because of Kiana here in this world and having the Authority of Finality

Mei can not only cause more harm but could kill everyone because of her now uncontrollable powers due to the mental disease inflicted to her

With this she started to jump building to building to find Kiana's Restobar so she can save and stop Mei

Even if she had to kill Mei in the process of saving everyone

To be continued

Chapter Text

10 mins. later, 30 mins. left

After jumping from building to building Durandal managed to find Kiana's Restobar which was locked for today, thou when she got close to the entrance of the building Kiana's 4 dogs barked loudly as if they saw her as a threat with Durandal feeling something off about about them

Nevertheless she started to use the 2nd Divine key to find them

Back at the part of the Nirvana Corridor

In Rita, Fu Hua, and Senti's part

While Bronya, Seele and Carole are trying to reach the door to help them and stop Mei, Fu Hua and the other are having a hard time to dodge multiple lightning strikes that Mei is releasing as she no longer can control her powers due to the whatever song Kiana placed on the earphones that was on Mei, with Mei's dragon Kurikira appearing to assist Mei making thing much more harder, causing Rita and Senti to handle the dragon while Fu Hua tries to reach out to Mei and clam her down alone

After dodging multiple times and using the Herrscher powers she and Senti are sharing she managed to get close to Mei and used Senti's powers to go inside her mind

As she entered Mei's mind it was filled with darkness with Kiana's voice saying many bad things to Mei in the darkness who was a few meters away from here with a huge light showing what state is she in as her body is being chained and her body hanged by those chains from above with 4 figures wearing robes with one color guarding the chained up Mei, with Mei being blindfolded while crying

From there one of the figures who was wearing a red robe noticed Fu Hua and a sword was summoned in it's hand, then charges at her with great speed and if it wasn't for Fu Hua's great reflexes she would be decapitated at the spot

After she dodged the attack, Fu Hua summoned a sword that Senti uses for her attacks and as a hoverboard in her hands as she uses the sword to deflect multiple arrows that the figure with a White Robe

It was there that Fu Hua started to engage the two figures wearing robes that attacked her, while the other two(Who were wearing a black grey like robe and pale green robe respectively) just stared at her and then suddenly left with the figures who are wearing a white and red robe shrieking in anger for leaving them 

This gave Fu Hua a chance to hit the figure wearing a red robe due to it's anger distracting it from hitting her correctly and then used Senti's powers to hit the White Robe figure with multiple swords, with the figure shrieking in pain before disappearing

But when she does that the Red Robe distance itself from Fu Hua and then spoke in a male voice

"We will meet again human for thy our master only hold us back and that is the reason you've defeated me and my brother, when our master let's us go you and your friends will suffer in our wrath"

After he said this, he also disappeared causing Fu Hua to make the sword she's holding to disappear and headed to the chained up Mei and used her martial arts to break the chains 

When she done this she managed to catch Mei on time and removed the blindfold on Mei, with Mei shocked to see Fu Hua

Mei: F-Fu Hua

Fu Hua: Yes it's me snap out of you're daze and stop-

Mei: P-Please leave me be

 It was there Fu Hua's eyes widen and then she spoke confused and angry

Fu Hua: Why would I leave you Mei, I have to stop you from hurting me and the others

Mei: I know Durandal really want to kill me so I'll give her chance

Fu Hua: But why?!-

Mei: Because I deserved it Kiana was right these voices surrounding us they are all right, I deserve to die, I don't deserve my students forgiveness or yours, In fact it's fine for me if you just say you hate me like the rest, I'm just really this pathetic ever since Kiana left-

But before Mei can finish her sentence she was slapped in the face by Fu Hua who started crying as well

Fu Hua: Do really think I would hate you Mei, true you did those things that you didn't meant to due, but if you really want to be forgiven then stop being paranoid and let go of your feelings for Kiana?!

Mei: But-

Fu Hua: Move on Mei, Kiana doesn't love you anymore after you cheated on her, but despite that we're on your side and still care for you despite not showing it due to our anger for you so please let your feeling for Kiana go 

Mei:. . . 

Mei stayed silent for some time before Kiana's voices got weaker and weaker until a shining light blinded Fu Hua causing her to cover her eyes

And only to open them and saw she was back, with her checking her surroundings to see Rita and Senti heading towards her as Kurikira disappeared with Fu Hua seeing Mei unconscious as she removed the earphones and destroy them

As Rita and Senti go to her, Rita spoke

Rita: Is she not deemed a threat anymore Fu Hua?

Fu Hua: N-Not anymore Mei didn't gave me her answer yet

Rita: I see

Fu Hua: But I recommend for her to be sent back to our world and call her father

Senti: So she can have someone to talk to her right Old timer

Fu Hua: Correct

Rita: If that's what you are thinking I'll recommend it to Master Durandal-

Suddenly they heard someone cracking and looked above and saw a huge crack on the Nirvana Corridor they are in the distance, with it totally breaking revealing Durandal holding Abyss Flower tightly

At the same time Bronya, Seele and Carole managed to enter the door where Rita and the others are, but from there Bronya knew something was wrong with Durandal as she saw Rita very injured but can still fight

And it was there that Durandal charged at the unconscious Mei before anyone can explain Durandal the situation with Bronya heading to Fu Hua to push them both as Fu Hua can die at Durandal's strike

But as she done this and Durandal was about to hit Bronya a familiar ōdachi blocked the strike

To be continued

Chapter Text

It was there everyone's widen as they saw Kiana blocking Durandal's strike 

Kiana: My, My Big sis you really on the kill now!

Durandal: Out of my way Kiana

Kiana: *Sighs happily as if mocking her older sister* You really need to handle your anger issues

From there Durandal was about to use Abyss Flower this time to hit Kiana, with Kiana ready to block the strike ready to face her sister once again

But suddenly Kiana's eyes wide open as Vestal's spoke in Kiana's mind through telepathy 

"Kiana we got a situation involving me I might need your assistance"

This made Kiana a little disappointed but it seems Vestal tone is a bit worrying 

And so she decided to use her reflexes to back away from Durandal's strike to pick up three and put them close to Senti, Seele, and Carole, with Rita stopping Durandal from doing anything more stupid and scolded her

As Kiana does this Fu Hua spoke

Fu Hua: Everything you did to Mei 

Kiana: Hm?

Fu Hua: Are you satisfied with it?

It was there Kiana stayed silent for a minute until she spoke

Kiana: I'll admit exposing that bitch's sins are satisfying and it exposed how far she committed them, but I pity her because the love I gave can't be replaced that easily so this the only thing I can do to make her move on

Fu Hua: . . .I see

Bronya: *Checks Mei's condition by using her Herrscher powers to create device* Mei is fine but I think she won't be able to wake u-

Kiana: Mei's in a comatose state now

It was there that Bronya, Fu Hua, Seele and Carole's eyes widen with Senti trying to use her powers to look in Mei's mind to confirm it

Senti: It's true I can't enter her mind

Kiana: I damage her mind too severely but not lethal to kill her 

Seele: And you know this will happen

Kiana: Sacrifices are needed to achieve the goal you desired Seele, my reasons why I chose Veliona will surface soon but for now take that cheater back to our world so she can be treated

Senti: When can you stop saying those words to Mei its kind of concerning for a person like you

Kiana: . . .Soon

After she said that Kiana goes close to Carole and spoke

Kiana: It'll be best if you return with. . .her despite what she did to Adam, she didn't really meant it to happen forgiving her will be tough so take your time okay Carole?

Carole: H-Hai

Then suddenly Kiana disappeared and the rest appeared in a forest meaning that they are no longer in the Nirvana Corridor 

And it was there Durandal made a decision on what to do for now

20 Mins. later

At Vestal's Office

We can see Vestal sitting in her office desk's chair as she witness Veliona escorting Su and Wendy out of the office as Vestal decided to let them to leave work early as all of the paperwork were done

As they left Kiana appeared and from there Vestal spoke

Vestal: How's the Nirvana Corridor?

Kiana: It's not damaged since Durandal only made a small gap by using the 2nd divine key, the Corridor healed itself in the process, thou I have to fix some things that Mei's rampage did at the corridor that needs my powers to fix. . .and I have to treat 2 of my dogs after they you know

Vestal: I see

Kiana: So what's the situation you told me?

Suddenly Archives appeared out of no where holding a chained Siren with a cloth gag on it's mouth

Kiana: Oh so this a Siren Aunt Vestal?

Vestal: Yes, specifically one of the Siren's I've killed a year ago to save this base from falling

Kiana: Okay then why did you need my help then?

From there Archives spoke

Archives: Unfortunately this Siren sneaked into the base and was trying to unlock the memory that I and her suppressed on one of the shipgirls, specifically Enterprise when she was sleeping 

Vestal: Me and Archive were  close to Enterprise's room since I was about to give something to the Commander of this base

Kiana: So what does this siren say?

It was there that Archives removed the gag and from there the Siren laughed and spoke

"So this the person you mention Shipgirl that'll take us down HA pathetic, men will just make her a slave when they get there hands on her and will make every shipgirl that loved to make love with men remember and gave you the most horrible dea-"

It was there that Kiana holds the Sirens neck, causing the Siren to immediately gasp as Kiana snaps her neck, killing her instantly

Kiana knew what Vestal did in order for Azur Lane to be Humanity's protector in this world, despite not liking the method she choose it was only the course of action Vestal can take since the men involved in the incident were criminals 

Kiana: So. . .who sent this siren?

Vestal: Possibly Observer Alpha as she might've retain her memories after I killed her

Kiana: I see, very well then we'll have to change our plans until we resolved this issue

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, causing Archives to disappear with the now dead Siren, with Vestal allowing the person who knocked to enter, revealing it to be Durandal who seems to be panting

Vestal: *Checks her watch* Impressive you managed to save 5 mins. from returning here, Ms. Abigail

Durandal: Y-Yeah, the situation was a little bit tricky when I came back but don't worry I've already handle the situation so it won't happen again

Vestal: Very well then by the way this is my niece Kiana, and Kiana this is Bianka Abigail the new doctor that'll work here

Kiana: Nice to meet you Ms. Abigail, it's nice that you can help my aunt on working here to save more live

Durandal: Y-Yeah nice to meet you too Ms. Kiana

It was there both of them shake hands and from there Vestal gave told her that she can leave early since something came up and gave her pay and told her to keep safe when she returned home so she can work tomorrow

When Durandal completely left Kiana spoke

Kiana: To think my older sister will be very good on acting like this, a shame we'd already knew her identity

Vestal: Yeah

Kiana: With that aside tell everything about the sirens so I can find Observer Alpha

And it was there Vestal started to tell Kiana about the Sirens with Kiana listening to her

To be continued

Chapter Text

I'm so sorry to say this will be discontinued because this one of my greatest works in my perspective that I worked hard on but there are reasons why I'm gonna do this

And those are:

1. Lack of time and interest-Eversince I've been doing other stories that kept me interested, I've started to lose interest in this and never took the time to think how will I continue this fic

2. College: A few months left I'll go to college I'm just waiting for the results of my entrance exam and I hope I passed

3. Change in interest: Now despite I'm still interested in HI3, I started to lose interest on Azur lane thou I still read some fics and have only a few ideas in mind that I'm still deciding and I felt I didn't use all of the characters here well and I can't remember anymore how I wanted to end this story 

and lastly

4. People who misinterpreted this story: There is this one chapter after the beginning of the story that was accidentally misinterpreted by someone and I almost got mad but in the end they made a good point somehow

So yeah that's basically it, I can only hope that this story can be used as an inspiration for new authors that are making fics like this and they can make a more even better story

And by the way if some is interested to use the plot here to make a version of their own story, please let me know

That's all and again this story is discontinued, have a good day/afternoon/night!!!!!

(P.S.: I'm planning to make a replacement for this story that is a Azur lane x Honkai Impact 3 crossover aswell and it will be my last time making a collab story with Azur Lane)
