(A/N) Note: Shoutout to Anton Logvynenko who made the digital artwork I used for this cover art. Keep up the great work

(A/N) Note: Though Imagine the Nantucket as the shipgirl Prinz Eugen and the area littered with collapsed buildings. You'll see why later

(A/N) Note: And now, back to our story

(Y/N) POV

Date: December 24, 1942 (Christmas Eve)

(Dawn)

(Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean)

Christmas Eve...

A time of peace and tranquility

But for me, it sure didn't start like that...

As the sun began to rise for Christmas Eve, me, Sheffield, and Edinburgh were still on the run from Crimson Axis after escaping Sakura Empire with the black wisdom cube we recovered along with Akashi in tow

We were currently in our Rigging forms

I wanted to use Titanic, but Sheffield went against that as to lower detection

But then we saw fog ahead as the sun rose higher

Sheffield: We can use the fog as cover

Me and Edinburgh agreed, But Akashi was against it as she got more frightened

Akashi: No! No! Not into the fog!

Sheffield: It's a better choice then being out in the open. We have to!

Akashi: But you don't understand! If we go into the fog! We'd be at risk of sinking to the Black Ghost!

Sheffield: I believe you mean the Grey Ghost, and besides she's back at Azur Lane

Akashi: I'm not talking about your Enterprise! I'm talking about the Black Ghost!

(Y/N): Whats the Black Ghost?

Akashi (Frightened): They say it's a ghost ship that looms from the fog and rams into unsuspecting ships! Then it disappears silently back into the fog like a ghost!

Sheffield: There's no such thing as ghosts and besides I've never even heard of such a tale

Akashi: But the Black Ghost is a real ship! Many of Sakura Empire's ships have encountered it and come back damaged. It the reason why Sakura Empire ships never enter fog unless necessary!

Edinburgh (Becoming Frightened): M-maybe we should find another way Sheffie...

Sheffield: Get ahold of yourself sister. Ghost or no ghost, we need to hide

So it was set as we entered the fog

As we continued on, Akashi and Edinburgh were looking around in fear

(Y/N): S-so what does this Black Ghost look like Akashi?

Sheffield just rolled her eyes and sighed as Akashi kept looking to the fog

Akashi: No one got a good look at it's name. Even on the stern the name has faded off! Some claim they briefly saw it on the bow but never got a good look. They all know it does have four smokestacks and was an old ship. But it still looked mostly intact aside from rust and a few scratches on it's black and white paint. And it always sails with it's lights off

(Y/N): Did anyone see anybody on the deck

Akashi: No and anyone who tried to jump aboard to check, was always thrown off and already dead with cut marks almost all over!
