SHACKLES – Tying Bonds, Binding Hearts

  (The fan service episode. I bet you've all been waiting for this, since it shows a little Yuri with Alicorn.

  So you have been warned that this chapter does contain some more adult themes!)

  "Let's end this, shall we?" Prinz Eguen smugly ughs. "Nürnberg."

  Nürnberg smiles and readies her sword. "My pleasure."

  Edinburgh grows scared and yells out in fear.

  A static hum fills the air, before a loud bang echoes. Something hits Nürnberg, causing smoke surround her.

  "Nürnberg!" Z23 calls out in worry, before her eyes widen in fear.

  Karlsruhe takes a few steps back as her she grows scared. Prinz Eugen's eyes widen in shock.

  The smoke clears and Nürnberg's eyes are wide as she coughs up a little bit of blood. She shakily looks down and sees a rge hole through her stomach.

  Nürnberg looks up to Karlsruhe. "Karlsruhe?" She calls out in fear, before colpsing to the waters and sinking below them. Blood mixes into the water.

  "I warned you Eugen." Alicorn's voice echoes through out the area.

  Everyone looks towards the source in the fog and they see three sets of red eyes staring at them, and two glowing Siren Yellow eyes. She drags the tip of her sword across the water.

  Alicorn walks out of the fog, her eyes glowing, and Midly's rail cannon aimed up. Everyone looks at her in fear, even Edinburgh.

  "I told you I wouldn't be afraid to kill any ship that stands in my way." Alicorn gres at Eugen. "I wasn't lying."

  Eugen starts to sweat as she stares down at Alicorn, fear running through the Iron Blood ship.

  Alicorn gains a sadistic smirk and her eyes glow brightly. "What's wrong, Eugen? Scared?" Her voice turns robotic and she puts a hand on the side of her cheek. "You wanted to hurt my maids, and now you're scared to face the consequences."

  Alicorn aims her Shark heads at each of the Iron Blood ships. Her rail weapons charge up. A sadistic smile adorns her face.

  Everything goes dark, only Alicorn's yellow eyes shine with a sadistic glint.

  "Yes, give in to your true self my dear, Imouto." Purifier's voice is heard.

  Baxterbro

  It's early morning and Alicorn grunts as she opens her eyes. She hums as warmth and softest envelops her. She squeeze her hands a couple times.

  Squish~Squish~

  Alicorn blinks a few times, before moving her head up and notices Sheffield's eyes starting down at her as she ys beside Alicorn.

  "Good morning, Miss Alicorn." Sheffield greets.

  Alicorn blinks a few more times as a red hue adorns her face, as she looks down and notices her maid's breasts in her hands. "Sheffield... why are you in my bed?"

  "You were having a nightmare, so I thought this would help." Sheffield then rolls out of Alicorn's bed and bows to her. "Was I successful, Miss Alicorn?" She looks up at Alicorn and tilts her head.

  Alicorn looks away with a slight blush and nods. "Y-Yes, let's go with that."

  The door opens and Edinburgh walks into the room. "Miss Alicorn, breakfast is ready, s-shall we go." She almost falls over as she walks in."

  Alicorn slides out of bed. "Let's get me ready for the day and we shall."

  .

  .

  .

  Outside the Commander's office of the Main Iron blood port, we see Bismark, with an indifferent look on her face. Yelling can be heard from within the Commander's office.

  "WIE WAGEN SIE ES!" A mature female voice yells in anger from within the office. "SIE HABEN UNS MILLIONEN REICHSMARK GEKOSTET, WEIL SIE ALLE MEINE VON MENSCHEN GESTALTETEN SCHIFFE IN DIE SPRACHE GENOMMEN HABEN, UND JETZT HABEN SIE EINES MEINER AZURIERTEN SCHIFFE GET?TET! DER FüHRER WIRD HABEN MICH AUSGEFüHRT, WENN ICH ES NICHT TUN FICKEN BEHEBEN SIE DAS BALD!"

  Heavy breathes are heard within the office. Bismark sighs and fixes her hat.

  The Iron Blood Commander yells again. "FEGELEIN! FEGELIN, BEKOMM DEIN ARSCH JETZT IN MEINEM BüRO!"

  Someone walks out of a room from across the hall.

  Fegelein gives a quick salute, by extending his right arm from his shoulder into the air with a straightened hand. "Miss Bismark."

  Bismark nods to him and he opens the door, revealing a female behind a desk at the other end.

  Amalia Arndt, the Iron Blood Commander.

  "Kommandantin Arndt." Fegelelin greets, and closes the door.

  Ardnt starts yelling again and Bismark closes her eyes.

  "She sounds really mad." Prinz Eugen walks up to Bismark.

  "Of course, with the events of the past 1 and a half, her reputation has been sent down the drain." Bismark respond.

  Suddenly Room and her favorite Human, Haz, walk by. "And Prinz is the reason for her most recent headaches~" She says.

  Prinz gres as Roon as she passes. "Dummkopf." She mutters.

  "She does have a pint, Eugen." Bismark points out. "You have caused several annoyances to Kommandantin Arndt, and even got Nürnberg killed."

  Prinz scoffs. "I didn't get her killed, her death was an... unforeseen complication."

  "You'd better find a way to make up for your mistakes, or Kommandantin will give you punishment."

  Prinz shivers a little. "I will fix my mistakes."

  Bismark gives Eugen a little smile. "Good luck then."

  Inside the office Arndt takes several deep breathes after having been yelling for several minutes. She then sighs and sits down and her one red eye looks at Fegelein. "We must find a way to even the odds a little." She says.

  "Do you have a pn Kommandantin?" Fegelein asks as he stands in front of her desk.

  Arndt closes her eyes and puts a hand on her chin. She starts to hum a tune, and after several minutes she gains a smirk and opens her eye. "Oh, I have one."

  Arndt pulls open a drawer on her desk and pulls out a map, opening up on her desk. She then points to an area of the North Atntic ocean.

  "Funchal isnd." Arndt starts. "A small naval port of ours, serves no real significance. But if we were to suddenly, ship a rge amount of 'supplies' out of her, and perhaps leak this information. We could potentially set up a trap and take down a few Azur Lane ships."

  Fegelein looks at the map, then up at his Commander. "When do you want this operation to start."

  Arndt smiles. "Now."

  Fegelein nods. "I'll get everything ready."

  .

  Alicorn and her two maids make it into the cafeteria and they see a small line of people. The three get in line and Alicorn notices Major Leslie just in front of them.

  "Major Leslie." Alicorn calls out.

  "Hmmm?" Leslie turns around and spots Alicorn and her two maids. "Oh, hey you three."

  Alicorn look up at the tall woman.

  Leslie is 6'3'' (192.02 cm.) and with a rge bust. Then Alicorn being 4 feet. (121.92 cm)

  "How is your morning Major?" Sheffield asks.

  "Oh, fine." Leslie then looks down at Alicorn. "I do have to thank you for protecting me and my crew during the st battle, you're a real life saver."

  "Do save the praise for those who deserve it." Alicorn states.

  Leslie raises an eyebrow. "Okay then..." She then brings a hand to her chin. "You know, now thinking about it, I wonder what happened to that Box, or whatever it is, we recovered from the Sakura Empire."

  Edinburgh speaks up. "I-I think we're studying it right now."

  Leslie hums.

  .

  .

  .

  Inside a Conference room in the Azur Lane Academy a red and bck box opens up on a table, revealing the Bck Mental Cube.

  Enterprise, Hornet and Commander Stait all grow serious at the sight of it.

  "A bck Mental Cube..." Enterprise mutters.

  Vestal and Wales look down at it.

  "Sakura Enterprise secret weapon, based on Siren technology..." Wale says.

  "It looks a little like Alicorn's old Cube." Vestal states.

  Akashi is sitting in a nearby chair, as Clevend and Belfast stand at the sides.

  "Can't we use this to nullify their mass-produced Siren ships?" Clevend asks.

  "It's the Orochi that controls the ships." Akashi informs. "This one is just for support."

  "A massive warship named Orochi..." Hornet mutters. "So that's what Sakura Empire is building?"

  "A successor to Alicorn?" Enterprise questions.

  "Most likely." Stait responds.

  "I wonder what the retionship is between the Orochi and this cube?" Vestal questions.

  Akashi shakes her head.

  "What we do know is that a Siren gave them this cube, and that Akagi works with that Siren." Wales says.

  "If that's the case, it means that the whole of Sakura Empire is being deceived." Belfast says.

  Akashi's ears droop and she becomes sad. "Akagi... What are you thinking? Does Commander Osami know?"

  "This thing is dangerous." Stait says.

  Beat Beat

  A beating is echoes from the cube, yet no one seems to hear it.

  ...

  Alicorn takes a bite of her food. Edinburgh and Sheffield stand behind her. Major Leslie sits across from her as the two eat.

  BeatBeat

  Alicorn's chest beats and her eyes shine with the beat. Alicorn goes still and suddenly her surroundings change.

  Alicorn suddenly finds herself in a dark void. Light shines from numerous rge cracks above her.

  Alicorn hums in confusion. Before spotting Purifier to her left, Yorktown in front of her and Alter Alicorn to her right.

  "This is quite illogical." Alicorn mutters.

  "Alicorn?" Leslie calls out, and Alicorn suddenly finds herself back in the cafeteria. "Are you okay?"

  "I'm fine, why?" Alicorn asks.

  "You just suddenly froze up and spaced out."

  Alicorn sets her fork down. "Just... a thought pasted through my mind and I got lost in it."

  "...Okay?"

  Suddenly Commander Sicilia's voice echoe's through the PA systems. "Will Major Leslie, Alicorn, Lena, Columbia, Bulldog, Comet, and New Jersey report to my office please."

  "I wonder what the Commander needs?" Leslie questions.

  "With that amount of people, it's a mission." Alicorn responds.

  Leslie sweat drops.

  .

  .

  .

  In the Sakura Empire's Main Naval Base.

  "Commander~ Commander~" Musashi calls out and she shows off a red rose in her hair. "Does this flower make me look cute?"

  "Sure." Osami responds, a frown adorned her face. She messes with her traditional Japanese outfit.

  Musashi giggles as her nine tails wag in happiness. "Commander thinks I'm cute."

  "I worry about you sister." Yamato mutters to her sister as she takes a puff from her Kiseru.

  Musashi flips her fan out and covers the bottom half of her face. "Oh, you're just jealous the Commander likes me more."

  Yamato doesn't respond as she take a long puff from her Kiseru.

  Osami walks away from the two sisters, her geta tapping against the stone path.

  "Wait for us Commander~" Musashi calls out and the two sisters follow after Osami.

  A group of Destroyers run by, yelling something about Taiyaki. A couple nearly run into the Commander, but she doesn't even seem bothered by it.

  "Careful little ones." Yamato calls out in slight worry. "You might trip!"

  "Yes, Onee-Chan." One of the Destroyers shout as they all wave to Yamato.

  Musashi waves her fan on her red face."Oh, Commander, we should have some children of our own!"

  Osami stops walking and gnces back at Musashi. "... ... After the war." She continues walking.

  "KYYAAAAA~" Musashu hugs herself as her tails wag.

  Yamato sighs and takes a very extra long drag of her Kiseru. "Yara Yara Daze." She mutters.

  .

  .

  Alicorn and Major's Leslie Battle ship sail at the front of the fleet.

  With Lena,

  Columbia,

  Bulldog,

  Comet,

  and New Jersey,

  All Sail behind the two massive ships.

  <> Freya replies from Battleship Wolf

  Alicorn's eyes stop shining blue. "I've got nothing either. Strange."

  <> Columbia asks.

  Several Spitfires take off from Alicorn's runway. "Unknown." She replies.

  <> Bulldog states.

  <> Comet says.

  <> New Jersey says.

  <> Lena whines over coms.

  <>

  Alicorn hums and her eyes shine blue. "Fleet halt!" She orders.

  Everyone slows down.

  <> Freya asks.

  Alicorn's eyes stop glowing blue and out in the distance. "We've got contacts!"

  In the distance is Several Iron blood ships, with many Siren ships following them. Leading the Iron Blood and Siren ships is Graf Zeppelin.

  Standing on the bow of the ship is Prinz Eugen with a smile. "Alicorn~" She gives a cheeky smile as she waves to the sub.

  The ship girls behind Alicorn and Freya all change into their rigging.

  Alicorn gives a light gre at Prinz.

  Baxterbro

  <> Lena shouts in fear.

  <> Columbia yells.

  Alicorn swiftly looks up and spots several squadrons of Stuka's with Siren Jets, Bf-109s and Messerschmitt Me 163 escorts.

  All the ships AA guns begin firing up at the dive bombers.

  Freya ughs over the radio. "So they want a fight, let's give them all!"

  Freya's four 14-inch, four barrel, fire at one towards the enemy fleet.

  Alicorn's weapons come out and her 2 of her 4 12'.50 caliber Mark 8 guns fire onto the fleet. She turns her sub towards the fleet so both her rail-guns fire onto the fleet.

  Bombs and bullets nd all around the fleet.

  <> Bulldog comments.

  Several bombs nd on Alicorn's sub, but barely do any damage. Alicorn huffs in annoyance as she unches her jets.

   Eugen calls out as she fires her guns from a far distance.

  <> Comet yells as she fire all her guns at the pnes above her.

  Explosions go off all around the fleet.

  <> Freya yells.

  <> An sailor replies.

  >

  Alicorn growls as several shells from Eugen sm into the side of her sub.

   Eugen questions.

  "Jersey!" Alicorn yells out.

  <> New Jersey Replies.

  Several Siren ships blow up in the distance, and a Iron Blood ship goes out of commission.

  <> Lena yells in pain.

  Alicorn looks back to see Lena sitting on top of the water, holding onto her bleeding side.

  Lena cries, calling out for her sister Helena.

  Alicorn's growls in anger and her eyes start to shine as she turns to the enemy fleet in front of her, several Iron Blood pnes crashing into the water beside her sub.

  Alicorn then raises her Rail Cannon up as she aims her hand out towards Eugen.

  Only for Eugen to gain a smile. "Perfect."

  Suddenly a terrifying sound reaches everyone's ears. The sound of several V-1 rockets.

  <> Freya yells.

  Alicorn looks up to see three V-1 rockets diving down towards her. Alicorn's heart starts to beat fast and her palms start to sweat.

  Alicorn aims her rail guns up, only for several bombs to nd on one of them, blowing it up. Alicorn grunts in pain as her remaining rail gun fires, blowing up one of the V-1s.

  Alicorn throws a hand up at the two remaining V-1s and her AA guns fire onto them.

  "Come on, come on!" Alicorn grunts as her left rail gun charges up again, only for smoke to raise out of it. "No!"

  Her AA guns blow up a second V-1, but the st breaks through the AA fire, and sms into the base of Alicorn's rail cannon.

  Alicorn screams in pain as smoke covers her deck.

  "Alicorn!" New Jersey yells and she sails towards the sub-girl, only to be thrown to the side by several bombs nding beside her.

  "We need to retreat!" Columbia yells, as she bleeds from several wounds on her legs.

  "How, they'll just chase us!" Bulldog points out as she maneuvers around as several Siren jets fire onto her.

  Comet runs over to Lena and holds her. "Stay with us, Lena!"

  Blood falls down the side of Lena's mouth. "It hurts! Helena! Helena, I'm scared!"

  Smoke clears from Alicorn's deck, revealing her Rail-cannon down and said girl wounded. Alicorn struggles to keep standing as she holds her left arm.

  Her eyes shine yellow. "Don't you ever take a hint!"

  Alicorn yells out in anger and fires all working guns towards the Enemy fleet.

  "Uh oh." Eugen mutters.

  Several shells sm into her ship, blowing up one her guns She cries in pain. Several other Siren ships blow up and Zeppelin grunts as she zips around, trying to avoid Aliorn's jets.

  Alicorn growls in anger and huffs as her eyes shine.

  <> A sailor yells over radio.

  <> Freya yells, before her radio go static.

  Several rge explosions go off next to Alicorn. She turns to the side and her eyes widen.

  Fire and smoke rage from the Conning Tower of Freya's ship. The two front cannons of her ship blow up and fire begins to spread.

  <> Bulldog shouts.

  "No..." Alicorn mutters.

  Eugen ughs in the distance. "Oh, poor humans, fighting a battle they shouldn't."

  "Leslie, come in!" Alicorn shouts as several pnes crash into her deck. She lets out a grunt. "Major, respond! ... Freya!"

  Alicorn's jets circle around Freya's ship, taking out any pnes that dare near.

  Suddenly coughing is heard over the radio.

  <> Freya orders.

  Alicorn sighs in relief.

  <
> A sailor informs.

  <> Freya coughs. <>

  <>

  <>

  <>

  Alicorn spits some blood to the side and looks at the remaining Siren and Iron Blood fleet.

  Eugen gres out at Alicorn, wiping some blood off her cheek. "Heh, no one she is the most powerful ship. Taking all the damaged and still standing."

  "Eugen!" Zeppelin yells out as she blows up one of Alicorn's jets. "We need to go, Azur Lane reinforcements are ten minutes out!"

  Eugen looks back out to the fleet. "Fine. Besides, I think I've done some damage. Kommandantin should be happy now."

  Alicorn huffs and her eyes stop shining as she watches the enemy fleet sail off. She lets out a groan and falls onto her butt.

  <> Freya mutters as she lets out a pained groan.

  <> Bulldog calls out.

  <> Columbia says with a tired tone.

  "I'm here." Alicorn says.

  <> Freya informs as the fire goes out in the conning tower.

  "Lena!" Comet yells. "Lena wake up!"

  Alicorn looks back and sees New Jersey crouching down to Comet and Lena, who's gone still.

  "Jersey?" Alicorn calls out.

  Jersey looks at Alicorn with a sad look, and shakes her head.

  Alicorn frowns and curls a hand into a fist. "Damn it!" She yells in anger and hits the deck of her ship, leaving a slight dent.

  Several Dougss pnes fly past Alicorn as Azur Lane reinforcements show up.

  Alicorn looks up to the sky. 'Is this my fault, is this because of all the sins I've committed?'

  .

  .

  .

  Alicorn is sitting in her room, looking out an open window. She has a few small bandages around her body.

  'It's been several days since we were ambushed.' Alicorn narrates in thought. 'We've sustained many injuries, me taking the brunt of it. Even losing a ship... Lena. She... she was still quite young. Her older sister Helena hasn't been seen since we came back. Commander Sicilia has gone depressed and bmes herself for everything.

  Then Freya... she lost a lot of her men in that battle. Even took a few life threatening injuries. Lost her entire right arm, and she has a massive burn scar over her left eye, losing vision in that eye. But she won't accept being medically discharged. So she's still fighting with us.

  I feel... I feel as if this is all my fault. They were after revenge for what I did to Nürnberg. I... I don't feel good now, like I want to vomit.' Alicorn sighs. 'Human emotions are confusing.'

  Alicorn stares out to see, with an emotionless look. Suddenly a knock is heard and the door to her room opens. Sheffield pokes her head in.

  "Miss Alicorn, me and Edinburgh are going to bathe." Sheffield informs. "Would you like to come?"

  Alicorn thinks for a few seconds. "I shall." She stands up.

  .

  .

  .

  Alicorn and her two maids arrive at the baths, only for Alicorn to get fsh-banged by a bunch of nude Azured Ships.

  Alicorn grows a blush. 'They... They... They just walk around nude! Now I know why I have my own bathroom. This is so indecent!'

  Sheffield walks off and Alicorn follows, with Edinburgh not far behind.

  Sheffield and Alicorn walk over to where Clevend, Denver, Montpelier and Columbia are. Columbia has several bandages around her legs.

  Columbia is looking at Hood talking to another ship.

  "Oh, my. Impressive." Columbia says.

  "Sis!" Denver calls out. "Do all Royal Navy girls wear grown-up underwear like that?"

  Sheffield and Alicorn reach the three, and begin to undress. Alicorn takes off her dress with a blush, revealing a yellow bra with bck panties.

  'So indecent!' Alicorn yells in thought.

  Clevend leans over to Sheffield. "Hey, so how is it, really? Do you like, pay attention to your panties and stuff?

  Sheffield look at Clevend. "No, I don't wear any."

  It goes silent for a few moments, as Alicorn's blush grows.

  "I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you." Clevend says.

  "Like I said, I don't wear them." Sheffield states and she lifts up her dress.

  Alicorn looks over and her face glows red as a bead of blood trickles down her nose. 'I... I.... I.... I.... I... I... I... I... I...'

  Smoke starts to raise from Alciorn's head.

  '01000001 01101100 01101001 01100011 01101111 01110010 01101110 00100000 01101000 01100001 01110011 00100000 01110011 01101000 01110101 01110100 00100000 01100100 01101111 01110111 01101110 00101100 00100000 01110000 01101100 01100101 01100001 01110011 01100101 00100000 01110011 01100101 01100101 00100000 01100001 01100100 01101101 01101001 01101110 01101001 01110011 01110100 01110010 01100001 01110100 01101001 01101111 01101110 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01110010 01100101 01110011 01110100 01100001 01110010 01110100 00101110'

  Edinburgh puts a hand on her head. "Oh, dear..."

  After they all get undress they sit at the showers and clean them selves off.

  Alicorn starts to rub soap on her arms, only to feel something soft on her back. Alicorn grows a massive blush.

  Sheffield has put her soapy busoms on Alicorn's back.

  "S-S-S-Sheffield?!" Alicorn questions.

  "I have been told that this will rex someone." Sheffield states as she starts to rub her chest up and down. "You have been tense the past few days, so I will help you rex."

  Blood falls down Alicorn's nose, only for more to fall as Edinburgh joins in too.

  Several minutes ter the three are sitting in a steamy spring. Alicorn has an UWU face as she sinks into the water. She looks out beyond the steamy water and sees all the rge chested Battleships and Heavy Cruisers walking around.

  Alicorn gres at them and looks down at her practically ft chest.

  Alicorn huffs with her mouth under water. 'I'm still growing!'

  Suddenly Clevend floats under water. "She really wasn't wearing any..."

  Alicorn looks at Sheffield's and Edinburgh's chests and gres at them.

  "Miss Alicorn?" Edinburgh covers her chests up with a blush.

  "Hmph!" Alicorn crosses her arms and looks away. "Not fair."

  Suddenly Alicorn is picked up and pced back down into the water, on Sheffield's p.

  Sheffield hugs Alicorn's close and pats her head. "There, there, Miss Alicorn."

  Alicorn grows a massive blush as blood drips from her nose.

  Alicorn covers her face as her blush grows. "So embarrassing!"

  Stait and Sicilia are sitting in a nearby spring, with Stait speaking to Sicilia with a smirk. Sicilia is blushing heavily.

  .

  .

  .

  Alicorn sits on her bed as she listens to cssical music, moonlight shines through an open window.

  Alicorn then thinks back on the baths and a blush grows on her face. Then she thinks about Sheffield and Edinburgh washing her and her face glows red and her heart beats faster.

  Alicorn plops down onto the bed and covers her face with a pillow and screams into it. "What are these emotions!"

  She keeps her face covered for a few moments, before removing her pillow. A small blush remains on her face as she looks out her window. She then thinks about how Sheffield was hugging her in the spring and her heart beats faster.

  "Am I sick or something?"

  .

  .

  .

  Alicorn wakes up after having a dream about Yorktown. She stares out a window as the sun starts to rise.

  "I should go and visit mother." Alicorn mutters.

  .

  .

  .

  Osami is looking out to the rising sun with a smile on her face.

  'I've had pleasant dreams for once.' Osami smiles to herself. 'I dreamed of you again, Amagi... It was nice.' She then frowns. 'I... I miss you dearly.'

  She looks out to the ships anchored in port.

  'But don't worry, with Orochi, I can bring you back.' Osami grips a pants leg tightly. 'I won't fail you this time! And I can feel your warm embrace again.'

  Yamato watches Osami from a distance, with a worried look on her face. She takes a drag from her Kiseru and blows out the smoke.
