Nagato: Is everything running smoothly?

Bismarck: It appears so, the Abyssals have been staying in their hunting ranges and the Sirens are less of a threat than ever

Nagato: Beating the Sirens...how powerful are these Abyssals?

Q.E: I'm unsure myself, when we observe them fighting Sirens, they are relentless and near unstoppable, when their guns turn to us they lose that edge and only fight to defend themselves

Nagato: It must be a ploy from Iowa to make us seem better than we are...we can't get overconfident

Bismarck: I was thinking along the same lines, but Iowa has been oddly quiet recently

Q.E: As in?

Bismarck: She hasn't changed anything about her fleet, she hasn't visited or caused us problems recently, and the mainland hasn't been hit since Seattle

...

Nagato: What is she thinking?

Bismarck: I wish I knew...

Humanity has finally decided to do something.

All together, the many nations across the world have sent representatives to the United Nations  to act on the growing threats in their world. From major players such as The Northern Parliament and Eagle Union to the minor countries such as the Southern Confederation(South Africa in total) and the Orient Sea(A part of a nickname for the  Philippines)

Eagle Rep: Thank you everyone for joining us today, and I'm sure you all know what we're going to talk about?

?: Of course, it's about the threat of the Abyss

Eagle Rep: That's correct, we need to come up with a proper method to handle them. Share your thoughts, and let us find a way to stop them
——

The talks went on for hours as the many men and women worked to find a solution to the new problem. The Sirens were something they have fought for decades, but the Abyss was a new threat that needed immediate attention.

Soon enough, they reached a stable ground, and will now let the world know about their decision.
—————

All across the world, televisions and news broadcasts were tuned to a single channel. It displayed the many people that attended the summit, and it was quiet.

Eagle Rep: Good day to everyone across the world. Today marks an important day in our lives...

He went on to let everyone introduce themselves, which alone took several minutes.

Eagle Rep: Now, to all those listening, we have gathered here to discuss our plans of action against the Abyss, and hopefully prevent any disastrous events from happening again

Most people understood that he meant Seattle, as he gave a few seconds for things to calm on his side.

Eagle Rep: We have decided to keep a watchful eye on the Pacific, more so than before. The Abyssals have attacked the Sirens as well as the shipgirls stationed in Pearl Harbor but have never attacked out of the Pacific yet

Sakura Empire Rep: We will increase our own land defenses to keep the public safe, while we attempt to push back our new foe and stop their attacks before anymore innocents perish...

...

Iowa: Would you look at that

She, alongside every other Abyssal, were in the public stage again, watching the news just as they did after the Seattle attack.

Iowa: It seems the big powers have finally decided to work together instead of letting their ships do the work

Wo: Indeed, but how will you proceed from here my Queen?

Iowa: Hmph...

She gathered void energy, casting a portal,

Iowa:*Sinister giggle* I'm gonna go have some fun~
—————

Azur lane was essentially in the same situation as the Abyss, where everyone is resting and watching the broadcast. The girls cheered when they heard their countries were actually going to work together.

Eagle Rep: Thank you all for your time, as well will start this procedure very soon

?: I'm happy you already did good...

The camera spun and pointed at another seat at the end of a table. In it sat the feared Queen of the Abyss.

Iowa: But don't you think you should have invited me?

Eagle Rep: You...how did you get in here?!

Iowa: What? You were talking about the fate of the world and it's countries, of course I would be here!

...

Iowa: Then again, I think mine would count more as an Empire than anything...you heard that you Royal skank?

The Royal Isles representative silently fumes at her comment.

Eagle Rep: Settle down Jamison...we are in no position to fight or defend ourselves

Iowa: Now why would I harm you all?

She slowly stood up and sauntered over to the Eagle Union representative.

Iowa: I came for the talks, not for your lives

She reached him and gently stroked his shoulder, as he threw her hand off.

Iowa: Aww...why'd you do that?

Eagle Rep:*glaring* I will not have your hands touch me woman

Iowa: Ooh~, scary

She stepped back and walked to the center of the room, passing by several other representatives who all were nervous of her presence.

Iowa: Well, since I'm here already...

She put her arms out, as the guards noticed the strange energy gathering in her hands.

Iowa: Why don't I take you on a dive with me?

Before they could fire, the room was surrounded in a black void. The camera soon turned back on and showed the bottom of the ocean, with both it and the representatives in a strange ball of energy.

Outside of the spheres, Iowa was walking across the ocean floor and skimming a few Brine pools.

Iowa: You know...this is where it all started

Several Hagfish swam out of the water and to Iowa.

Iowa: These little guys were my friends for so long, until they became closer...they became my family

Several piercing red eyes shone from the black waters. The representatives grew fearful as the large tail/mouths of the Abyssals emerged from the darkness, followed by the owners of the tails.

Iowa: These girls here are, or were, Hagfish. That is, until I found my powers

A small abyssal can running forward, leaping into Iowa's arms.

Iowa: This here? This is the first abyssal who wasn't born from Hagfish, but is instead a survivor of Seattle

Eagle Rep: You-?!

Iowa: Yes, her father was killed, but I blame myself for that

N.P: Mommy?

Iowa: Hm?

N.P: Can I go bring Auntie here?

Iowa smiled and put her down on the ocean floor.

Iowa: Yes you may

The little girl swam out into the inky black and vanished.

Eagle Rep: You corrupted a child?!

Iowa: Wrong, she willingly came with me, and now she is living a life where she wouldn't have to worry about pain or misery...same as another person I found

N.P: Mommy, I brought Auntie Amagi!

The entire world stopped at the uttering of that name. It belonged to a famous vessel that led many battles against the Sirens to victory after all.

Sakura Empire Rep: No...you didn't!-

?: I'm afraid she did

Out of the darkness came IJN Amagi. She looked healthy and normal, if it wasn't for her rigging.

It looked just like the other abyssals, with two massive tails that had guns inside of them. They coiled around her but sprouted where her tails once were, now replaced by these large and menacing weapons.

Back on the surface, the shipgirls were frozen in horror at what Amagi had become, none more so than Akagi and Kaga.

Amagi: While I still am myself, I prefer if you don't call me that name, I prefer my designation

Her tails roared in the faces of the representatives.

Amagi: I am known as the Heavy Cruiser Princess in the Abyss

(Yes, she's a battle cruiser, but this is closest I could get)

N.P: Oh! I'm the Northern Princess!

Iowa: Well, I guess that's all you need to know for now.

She collected energy once more, and pointed her hand as the group.

Iowa: Today officially marks the day the Abyss truly wages war against the surface.

She gave them a cruel and evil smile.

Iowa: By my name, USS Iowa, I declare humanity our enemy!

She fired the last and teleported the group back to the summit room.

...

Eagle Rep: Well...this just got a whole lot worse for us
