Right now, you just waiting outside Anna's room while she was getting ready. After what happened previously, you couldn't blame her for being a bit... hesitant trying the whole thing again despite your many apologies to her.

Still, it was taking a bit long.

"AAAAAAAAAAAH!" You hear her scream inside.

Your danger sense immediately kicks in and you barge through the door. A few locks were nothing against your combined tonnage, and you see Anna standing in the middle of her room, bone white. At her feet, you see scraps of wrapping paper, the remains of a package. In her hands, you see what looks to be a comic book.

"Anna? What's the problem?" You raise an eyebrow as you walk up to get a look.

"It's... it's..." Anna stammers, incapable of forming a coherent sentence and just turns the comic book over to show you.

...and you see it's another one of those "doujin" things. A new one, apparently.

"WHO KEEPS MAKING THESE THINGS?!" You fume.

"Well, my first bet would be Akigumo." Sam says casually as she pokes her head through Anna's now burst open door. "Apparently she runs her own little doujin circle here. Been making bank off it, if the rumors are true."

"B-but this has been happening before we came here!" Anna whimpers.

"That's true." Sam chuckles darkly.

"You know who it is, don't you?!" You narrow our eyes.

"Maaaaaaaaaybe." Sam gives you that smug, shit eating grin she loves so much.

"W-well who is it?!" Anna asks, her antenna twitching furiously. "T-this is defamation! Libel! I-invasion of privacy!"

"Sorry, gotta respect confidentiality and all." Sam's smug smile widens ever more.

That seems a bit too far, considering Hoel was there and all. While the threads kept Hoel from going all Srs Bsns over Samar way back and being all FRAK AUTHORITY THEY LEFT US TO DIE, this would be like saying Johnston gets around because all of the ships were taking turns pounding her.

Okay, you needed to make her talk. You simply had to know.

"Oh Saaaaaam~." You smile as you grab her by the shoulders. "We're friends, right? Practically sisters, eh? How about you be a good sister and just tell us what's going on?"

"I dunno, maybe if ya make it worth my while?" Sam smiles back.

Meanwhile Anna was just cowering in the background in response to the ugly aura you and Sam were exuding.

"Ooooooh, I like to keep my options open." Sam's smile grows ever larger. "I'll come along at a certain time with a certain request, and it's my hope that I can count on your help. How about that?"

"Errr..."

"Don't worry, it's not going to be anything lewd or illegal. Well, mostly illegal. Just think of it as a simple, innocent favor." Sam says in a very sickeningly sick voice. "So how about it?"

You look back at Anna, who's really no help as she remains cowering in the corner.

"LIEEEEEEES!" You hiss at Sam. "You're just saying that to throw me off!"

"Am I?" Sam giggles. "Why don't you go find out yourself when you have the time? Anyways, duty calls, and if I recall, don't you have a test to go to? Ta ta!"

Sam gives you a polite little wave as she makes her escape. Fucking Saaaaaaaaaam.

"It... it can't be true, can it?" Anna whimpers. "Portland wouldn't do something like that, would she?"

"Ugh, I just don't know anymore..." You groan as you look at your phone. "Oh SHIT, we're gonna be late! Come on!"

You grab Anna's hand and practically drag her along. No time to worry about all this other shit right now!

"Hoel, I can walk myseeeeelf!" Anna wails.

"Certainly cutting it close." Shen shakes his head when you and Anna reach the workshop. "Well, since you're both here we can begin."

Shen then leads the two of you to a special, sealed room, surrounded by all sorts of wires and electronic equipment. In the center were two beds laid side by side. On one end, you could see workstations were a number of technicians were sitting at attention. Next to them, you could see the Captain and North Carolina also present, no doubt to observe the events.

"Now, all you two need to do is lay on the beds and connect via datalink." Shen explains. "All this equipment you see here is merely to monitor your activities and will not be invasive to either of you in any way. However, if we feel that the experiment is growing too dangers, we can manually disconnect the both of you, though you can understand why we would want to refrain from doing that."

"Of course." You sigh.

Anna just silently nods.

"Now, if there's nothing else, we can begin at any time." Shen continues.

"Let's get this thing started." You say as you step up to one of the beds and lie down. "You ready, Anna?"

"Y-yeah!" Anna nods as she lays down on the other bed. "D-datalinking with Hoel..."

"What was that?"

"N-nothing!" Anna shakes her head rapidly.

"All right, you two may begin." Shen says with bemusement.

You and Anna both take deep breaths and you close your eyes...

...and open them again. You're still in the room but... it's different. It was like looking at the world through your radar, everything just blurry, solid shapes.

"Hoel, up here!" You hear Anna beckon from above.

And you just have to think it, and before you realize, you're actually floating UP. Through the walls, through the ceiling, until you find yourself hovering above the workshop. That's also where you find Anna, a bright smile on her face. The way she seem so comfortable, sure with herself, was really telling as to how often she's seen the world as this.

"W-whoa." You gasp as you look around, trying to drink in all of what you're seeing.

"W-wait!" Anna tugs at your shirt in alarm. "T-try not to look at anything too hard! You're not ready to take in that much data yet!"

"Oh, right." You mumble, remembering what happened last time.

"Okay..." Anna's electronic ghost smiles warmly. "You see, the trick is, you can't just float around the network aimlessly. You really have to KNOW what you want to get. You have to have a destination in mind and you focus on that and on that only! That way you don't get distract with, well, everything else."

"Huh, that make sense... I think." You nod.

"So, just pick a point and go to it!" Anna bounces up and down enthusiastically. "Don't worry, I'll be with you the whole time!"

Really now? You look around for a bit, trying to make sure to keep your vision narrow and focused like Anna suggested. You see dozens of stars in the empty black sky, each one blazing and shining like miniature suns. Countless lines of code like spidersilk connect them to the ground and to other stars like a massive wave.

Out to sea, you can see dozens of little beacons in tight clusters, roaming the dark seas like mobile lighthouses.

In the sky, you see other, smaller stars flitting back and forth, though you notice one particularly bright one making its way towards Japan.

And finally, you see a light shining from Anna herself, as if her heart were a sun itself...

You don't even look. Just the mere thought, and suddenly you're already thousands of feet in the sky, hundreds of miles from Japan. You're up there, in the clouds, but your vision isn't obscured at all. You can see the endless train of cargo planes from North America sending much needed supplies to Asia, all picked up and tracked by countless naval and traffic control radars. Mixed in, you could see fighters of various types patrolling in wide circles, keeping a watch over the skies. Some of these planes, you could actually "speak" with, but many others, you couldn't, since they weren't directly tied in to the network.

However, it took you a few seconds to notice something else.

Everything was completely still. Frozen in time.

"What the-"

"We not in our physical bodies any more, Hoel. We're just data!" Anna explains as she materializes behind you. "And as data, we experience time radically different! Since we're practically moving at the speed of light, everything else seems extremely slow."

"Like, forever?" You frown.

"Only for as much as you decide!" Anna continues. "But I find being able to slow time like this is really useful for being able to make snap decisions!"

Is that so...

"Huh? That's weird." Anna frowns as her gaze is drawn towards a roving sun, nestled within the cargo hold of a C-17 frozen in the air. "Something in there is pinging us."

"Should we respond?" You ask.

"I, uh, don't know. It's not talking like any other asset I've met, except, well, you." Anna bites her lip. "It's weird."

"Come on, let's go check it out, then!" You say as you float towards the C-17.

You and Anna phase through the hull of the C-130 and...

...you're met with a rather short girl with messy, wavy, shoulder length blonde hair, adorned with a large, pink bow. She was wearing a variation of same uniform all of the USN shipgirls wore but... you didn't recognize her at all.

"Hi there!" The shipgirl says with so much cheer that your chest feels like it's collapsing in itself.

"W-who are you?" Anna blinks in surprise. "I don't recall any other shipgirl with datalink-"

"I'm MAGICAL GIRL PACIFICA!" The shipgirl says cheerfully as she twirls around on one foot like a ballerina. At the same time, a massive, phantom gun materializes in her hand and a swarm of transparent miniature F-35s appear over her head like a flock of birds. "But you guys can just call me Paz!"

W-wait a minute.

Tell her every dirty little thing her Mommy's done, including the vivisections and (after a fashion) Woel; either she doesn't care and her psychopathy is thereby proven, she realizes that Vahlen's a crazy bitch, or (the best possibility) she suffers a paychological break and murders Vahlen, thereby both ridding us of the cunt and proving the instability of artifical shipgirls.

From Part 53:
"They haven't fueled it up yet, so it's running off external power for now." The second scientist points to large, thick power cable snaking up the wall the drydock and plugged into the Rig. "No sense getting into all that radioactive shit until we're sure everything else works."

You're immediately on the little Paz, like an lion pouncing on a helpless gazelle in the savanna. You pick her up in a tight hug and turn to Anna.

"Can we keep her? Please? Prettyplease?" You say quickly.

"H-Hoel, we can't just take a shipgirl like that! It's.. it's kidnapping!" Anna gasps, mortified.

"Oh, so you're concerned about custody?" You continue, your eyes flashing with possibilities. "Don't worry, we can split caretaking duties 50/50! You can take her out during winter break and I can have summer-"

"Hoel!" Anna whines.

"Haha, you're really funny, Big Sis!" Paz giggles.

B-Big Sis...?!

Well, she certainly isn't showing complete bloodthirst at the moment. Maybe our opinion of her will change once she's in battle?

>>1018038
Newtype space magic cuts through all that conditioning.

>>1018029
>HNNNNNNNNNG

At least she didn't call us Auntie.

Also if Portland is really the author we're looking for she better start writing herself in with Hoel.

Having recently marathoned the first 3 series of Gundam... usually how it goes is the experimental person gets on swimmingly with the protag due to newtype mental magic mind bonding, but then during battle when they inevitably face each other conditioning wins out until a crucial moment where the modded person hesitates due to knowing the protag like a soul-mate, then the modded person dies horribly, mentally scarring the protag.

I can't recall a single artificial newtype having a good end in that franchise yet.

"Y-yep! I'm Big Sis Hoel!" You say happily as your heart starts to go into overdrive.

"Cool! When I get to Japan we should totally meet up!" Paz says happily before frowning. "If Mommy will let me. She can be such a big meanie sometimes..."

Was she talking about Vahlen?

However before you could say anything else, you could feel yourself getting pulled backwards, as if somebody had lassoed you from behind. You instinctively let go of Paz as you fall, and fall, and fall...

...and your eyes snap open only to be blinded by the bright fluorescent lights of Shen's workshop.

"Agh! What the hell?!!" You wince.

"Sorry, but your vital signs were beginning to spike." Vita says as she puts a hand to your forehead. "Shen decided to shut down the datalink as a precaution."

"Were there any issues?" The Captain asks, clearly concerned in his own, reserved way.

"Hmmwhaaaa?" Anna groggily wakes up, still incoherent.

I'm thinking she's more along the lines of the Lexington-class with their original armament; primarily a carrier, but armored and able to defend itself with some alarmingly vicious weaponry.

Ah fuck, misread 'expected' as 'expect', hence my answer.

But really, the Pacifica has been mentioned before as the supercarrier that Merc's group travels on in their RPG campaign. I expected a high-tech carrier from the get-go.

>>1018089
>>Just say everything went fine.

>>1018101
I'm thinking she's a full on battlecarrier like a battlestar, a big battleship with fighter wings to launch and none of the actual downsides of a real life battlecarrier. Because this is shipgirl magical bullshit, and one of Hoel's possible upgrades was a railgun, despite a railgun being impossible to mount on a WW2 destroyer due to not meeting the structural and power requirements modern ships have only just managed to meet.

That had a Cyber-Newtype who actually survived the story arc they were introduced in.

"Nah, everything was fine." You grin. "Just got a little ahead of myself, that's all. But I think I got the hang of it."

"That's good to hear." The Captain nods and turns to Anna. "Anna?"

"H-huh? Oh yeah, everything went without a hitch!" Anna nods as well, quickly catching on to back up your story.

"Though, uh, do you think we can speak a little more privately?" You request.

"Absolutely." The Captain then turns to Shen and his technicians. "Gentlemen, seeing as how the test is concluded for now, your services are required elsewhere."

"Yes, of course." Shen nods after getting the hint, and he leads his staff out of the test chamber.

"I'll be right outside if you need anything." Vita says as she steps out, leaving just you, Anna, the Captain, and North Carolina in the room.

"So what is it that you wanted to discuss that you couldn't in public?" The Captain crosses his arms.

"Um, when me and Anna were... erm, in the network, we made contact with the Pacifica." You say.

The Captain's eyes widen ever so slightly, but you can tell he's quite shocked by the news. He turns to North Carolina, who seems to have been equally caught off guard.

"You're sure of this?"

"I practically HUGGED her electronic avatar!" You pout at the Captain's skepticism. "She's just as real as me and Anna here!"

"This is disturbing." The Captain frowns. "We were aware that Vahlen was constructing Pacifica, but we were led to believe she wouldn't be fully capable for at least another month, unless..."

"They're rushing her into combat?" North Carolina raises an eyebrow.

You feel a flash of anger.

"You mean Vahlen-"

"No, not her. Vahlen's a perfectionist, and she'd never let a development hers out into the field unless she was absolutely sure it would work." The Captain shakes his head. "No, I'm more certain that somebody higher up put her up to deploying Pacifica ahead of schedule."

"But how could Hoel and Anna communicate with her...?" North Carolina blinks.

"Pacifica is supposed to encompass all of the Navy's latest technological developments. A complete leapfrog over having to gradually retrofit our existing WWII-era shipgirls." The Captain explains. "The very least they would do is give her a datalink capability."

"So what do we do?" North Carolina asks.

"I'd have to bring to the Admiral. It's ultimately up to him how she's going to be utilized." The Captain sighs and turns to you. "Thank you for this information, Hoel. I'll inform the Admiral right away."

Seeing how the Captain and the Admiral were the first commanders to treat shipgirls like actual girls, they should be able to make the right decisions about how to deploy Paz.

"Thanks, Cap." You sigh. If there was anybody who knew how to handle a situation like this, it would be the Captain and Admiral.

"Carol, get the coffee ready. I'm expecting a number of angry phone calls in the immediate future." The Captain sighs as she makes his exit.

"Of course, sir." North Carolina loyally follows him out.

"Ah, well, that was pretty unexpected." Anna blinks. "So... what should we do now?"

"To... to find out the truth, right?" Anna asks.

"Yep! Or to beat it out of her, if necessary!" You grin. "So how about it?"

"We're gonna confront her face to face!" You grunt as you stomp over to Portland's dorm. You don't even wait to knock, you just kick the door in. "SWEEEET PEAAAAA!"

"What the hell happened to knocking?" Portland groans as she spins around on her desk. To the side, you can see Indy sitting at her own desk, carefully and methodically disassembling a smartphone into its individual components. You guess she was some sort of tinkerer?

"I KNOW WHAT YOU DID." You point an accusing finger at Portland. "YOU'RE THE AUTHOR OF LOVE X RADAR, AREN'T YOU!?"

Portland only responds with an awkward silence, beads of sweat quickly pooling on her forehead. Yep, you both know that the cat's out of the bag, but she doesn't want to admit it outright.

"I... I don't know what you're talking about." Portland quickly adjusts her glasses. "Those are some very wild accusations!"
