"I'm glad to hear that you were not seriously damaged, Mizuki. Nor anyone else for that matter." Ari said warmly. She was truly grateful that the fleet came out rather unscathed in their first live encounter, even if the other Fleet was merely "Testing" Them. Something that still made Ari worried. Also, who was this "Flagship" that wanted to meet them? Ari had a feeling that these questions would plague her for a time to come.<br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>As She approached the small Tanker, Arizona could see how much she dwarfed the other ship, and a part of her felt guilty for it. When Fuso approached, and asked about what happened. Ari would fill her in. "Apparently, they were sent to<em>greet</em>us, and test whether or not we were still Formidable. That, and to extend an invitation from their flagship. Whos identity was withheld. I declined the invitation." Arizona informed the other battleship.<br/><br/>Turning her attention back towards Abbey. "Effie, Suzu. Please Accompany me." Arizona stated as she made a stair case from her ship to the Tanker, and approached Abbey. She was trying to be a non-threatening as possible. As she told Effingham earlier. Abbey has not given any evidence of her involvement with the minor skirmish that took place. As she touched down on Abbey's deck, Arizona made it a point to turn her guns away from the tanker. "Please forgive our Suspicions, but one can not simply dismiss what happened as Mere coincidence. Please be honest, and forthcoming with the answers to our questions." She said with a soft smile before reaching out, and taking Abbey's hand. Arizona's touch would be surprisingly warm, and gentle.<br/><br/>What she was doing was making a direct link with Abbey, Suzu, and Effie. Instantly, the scene shifted around them all, and no longer were they in the middle of the pacific Ocean, but back on the Island. However, in place of the Sprawling run down base that was there when the Island existed, There was now an amazingly beautiful Southern plantation home with large Trees lining the walk way, and a huge wrap around porch.<br/><br/>(http://static.squarespace.com/static/51b74359e4b0f643c17dc67b/t/51f9853ee4b0608e46449929/1375307071566/Southern%20Mansion.jpg)<br/><br/>Underneath one of the verandas, a wrought iron table, and some chairs were set. "Please, take a seat everyone." Ari encouraged as a large pitcher of Iced Lemonade appeared in the middle. A refreshingly warm breeze blew across the veranda, fluttering Ari's deep crimson hair as she poured everyone a glass of Lemonade. Granted, it wasn't real, but in this space, it was no different that being real. Arizona took her glass, and took a slow sip before setting it down on the table. "Miss Abbendale, are you with the force that just attacked us?" Arizona asked as she leaned back against her chair, and crossed her long shapely legs. Resting her arms on the chair's arm rest, and steepling her fingers. though the act caused Arizona's large breasts to smoosh together.
