3rd POV

Two years has been past as Jude is now 15 years old and on that times that Jude saw the debut of Kuromonine's under the command of Maho and Miho and it was a great start of their game but in the passing days the three of them they still meet since Jude studied all of the tactics from the bottom of the top while the Nishizumi style is not a good for Jude's tatic since he is adopting of what he has on hand and on the next year Jude saw Miho and Maho's school versus Pravada High school as the events of there was the same as Miho's history, a Panzer III was fall down to the river steam and jump out of the flag tank of her's and in the end Miho's team got lost and Shiho Nishizumi scolded Miho for having not followed her family's sensha-do tradition and for showing weakness. Her sister, Maho, was present at the scolding, but did not step in Miho's defense, but for Jude was there as he explain about the situation as Jude brings forth the points why she did the actions as Shiho counters Jude's arguments since Jude was part of Team B of the Kuromonine and Met Erika but Jude was looking more and in the end Shiho won on the arguments since Jude wanted to talk some more about the event as Miho stopped him and for Jude stands down since he the federation saw Jude and allowed him to join Kuromonine team as he was commanded a Proto-Panther, VK 30.02 (M) a spots camo.

As Jude's B team was mostly filed with some of the Honkai Impact members, Kiana, Mei, Himiko Murata, Bronya, Seele and Sheele Vollerei, Theresa Apocalypse, Fu Hua, Wendy Maekawa and Griseo Hina quit Kuromonine and followed Jude at his mothers' school, St. Antonio Maria Claret Academy, and it's Ship school is the Warship Hull Number 110, IJN Shinano

Right now, Jude is infront of her mother as Annabell presents Jude a list of tanks on hand and to see most of the tanks are M3 Stuarts and M3 Lee as well the flag of their school, while Jude got already division of members already since they are separated for people wants mechanic and who wanted sensha-do.

 

As Jude smiled at this.

Jude:Thank you for this and approving our club ma'am

Annabell:It's alright Jude, and you know you can call me mom oh and me and your dad saw your debut at Kuromonine while Shi-chan called me to say that you helped Miho that time and I am glad that you gave out the points while she was glad abit of what you have done

Jude:I see as for the next Item

Annabell:Ah yes, the next item is that you are to invite three or five school for a friendly sensha-do as you are to make a letter and you have freedom of choice who would you like to invite

Now Jude smiled at this since he has a few in mind of what school he want to pick.

Jude: I see, thanks mom

Annabell:It's ok besides those tanks we restore or bought from Sunders are a great deal since world war History, that the Philippines and US helped each other since you know the rest of the history on World War 2 right

Jude nodded as Annabell presented a new uniform and it was a Rayadillo uniform and it was the same of what General Luna wear

Jude:Really thanks for this while the payment from the thanks

Annabell:Don't worry the school got it covered, plus we are still making talks with Sunders for the Shermans and other tanks like a Panzer and a Pershing

Jude POV, TimeSkip

Now I am on my room, and I was happy that my journey sensha-do is starting, while for the school I might invite Pravda, St. Gloriana, Continuation High School, Anzio and Maginot Girls' since Mom thinks that we need experience for the new members and a friendly match and to think about it I may met Erika and now to think about it it's been a year since the incident for now we got a school ship and it was the INJ Shinano, since we know that there is a few Aircraft carrier that station in the Philippines back at world war 2 and if I recall it's Manila Bay, Intrepid, Essex, Enterprise, Hornet and Bataan but I guess mom pick Shinano, still how did she get the hull and rebuilding it and all that

For now I just shake those off as I start to make a letter for a friendly match and with that, I start to type down the words for the letter

3rd POV

We can see on another part of the Shinano, we can see a Blond woman with similar features from Kiana, this is Bianka "Duranda" Kaslana, the older sister of Kiana Kaslana since Bianka is the second in command or the CO of the team while on the ground we can see a Stuart with coat of arms of ME, That's Raiden's tank, a M3A3 followed by M3A1 and their opponent is Coat of Arms of a Flaming Butterfly, that's Himiko Murata's M3A3

As they are clashing and as well exchanging cannon fire while for Bianka is the overseer on this battle while their adviser on this club is Annabell Tsukihime and serving the drinks is Rita Rosewise, while Bianaka was on Mei's tank she wanted to know how Mei's sensha-do way

Bianka:So that's how her way is, from what I know that Mei is part of Jude's Team B, Formerly on Kuromonine

Now Bianka understand how Mei fights as the fight is Ten versus Ten since for Jude already set up the command, for a squad, when it's a Ten tank battle, Squad will be by pair, Division is around five, and if it's a 20 vs 20, Squad will be trios, Division will be around 10 but since there are three division of this club, it will be seven or six member of a division as Bianka already knows how Jude fights

Rita:Yes old friend since we are starting our sensha-do

Bianka nodded as back on Mei's tanks we can see the Loader, Sirin Kaslana the second older sister of Kiana, as she starts to load a round and the Gunner is Wendy, while the members of each tanks are mix since girls like her are new in sensha-do as she saw Wendy is turning the gun to one of Himiko's Team and fired as a flag is pop out

Sirin:Nice shot, Wendy

Wendy:It's not over yet our odds is now 5 to 4 now as for Himeko, since her family is military, I bet she will set up an kill box

Meanwhile with Himeko, she was glad that there is a sensha-do and now she is on the reds here as she looks at her map to see where she can make an counter attack while looking all of the reports and as well info about Mei, she is a clam commander as she was radio operator and nearly a second in command of Jude's old tank as she is a working on Blitzkrieg and at the sametime she knows where to attack and where to stop

Himeko:I got a plan now

As she called out all of her teammates on the channel and start to share the Plan

Himeko:All units of the Third Division, we are going to Point 206A, I got a plan to finish this battle

Now back with Mei as she saw two of the Stuarts are firing both it's MG

Mei:All tanks halt

As Mei's units was on a stop as they start to take aim and before they fire they saw the Stuarts are moving away and that made Mei thinking what is Himiko thinking while spending time with Jude back then she was going to pull one of his books

Mei:Easy 2-5 I need you to scout ahead

Easy 2-5:Roger that ma'am

Now the Stuart A1 is moving abit faster to scout for enemies as for Mei she is looking at her map as she unfolds another part of the map as she saw a few possibilities of a counterattack and started to contact another tanks

Mei:Easy 2-7 and 2-6 I need you to go point 556 while the rest of you are going with me at point 205A, Easy 2-5 what's your status

Easy 2-5 Commander:Easy 2-1, we have encounter enemy and ----- this is Easy 2-5 we are out of the game

Now Mei was thinking at the current location of Easy 2-5 but from that point on she looks at the map and there are three points that Easy 2-5 got shot down, Point 205, 225 and 207B

Mei:Everyone I need you all to RV at point 207B 

At point 205A we can see Himeko and remaining force are reading for a final battle and in a few moments, she got a radio contract at one of the forward force of hers

Hotel Tank Commander: Hotel Lead, this is Hotel 4-2 I spotted column of tanks passing by at my location

Himeko:Roger, hold your fire, wait until I give the order

As the Raiden Team is already at the last known location of Easy 2-7 and Mei saw the M3A1 of Easy 2-7 while Himeko saw them are on the spot while a Tiger Tow tank two Easy 2-7 along with her crew out of the field in a few moments Himeko got the opening

Himeko:ALL TANKS FUEGO -fire- !!!!

As all of the Stuarts A1 are firing on their targeted all at once all of the Raiden tanks were hit and white flags pops up

Annabell:Second Division, all tanks has defeated, This is Third Division's victory

Meanwhile back at Bianka, she saw Mei's tactics and how she moves her units from the start to the end since from what she knows that Mei was part of the tank crew as a Radio operator, while Kiana, her little sister, is a gunner of the Tank of Jude back when they are part of Kuromonine of what she hear, Jude nickname, the Schwarzes Jäger-Ace or the Black Hunter Ace of Kuromonine and now she smiled and move away from there feild while on the same time we can see a few tow trucks are towing away all of the tanks for reparing and Himeko and Mei smiled at this since for them they are ready

While with Jude he was done making the letter and he start to send it to other schools he picks, Pravada, St. Gloriana, Continuation High School, Anzio and Maginot Girls' and if one of them can't go he did send out a letter from All-Stars University as well but in a few moments he got mail from Pravada, St. Gloriana, Continuation High School, Anzio and Maginot Girls'

Jude:Whoa, the four of them answer

Now he saw a new mail and it's from All-stars as it stated that they can't join this practice match while for Jude he replied since it was understandable that All-stars are busy on other stuff as so Jude replied on the four of them of where the meeting place, on St. Antonio Maria Claret Academy school ship and he set the date for the event

Jude POV Timeskip

Now I am with my teams as they are ready their tanks while I can use the VK 30.02 (M) but on parts of the culture we must use what school theme country we are using since from what I know, the Philippines uses Shermans and Stuarts while Mom is still on buying out the list I have given to her as for now I am using the M3 Lee as our flag, M3A3 Stuarts for officers and MBTs are M3A1

But I go to another room and it was the meeting hall as I am readying drinks and food for our guess and in a few moments I saw the door open and the first one to arrive is Pravda High School team commander and her escorts, Katyusha, Nonna and Klara, not going to lie but they are really charming as the hall is playing Victory's Red while my Hight abit taller than Nona but I saw Katyusha is humming the song

Katyusha:Katyusha, really loves the song you made Commander Tsukihime

Jude:I thank you for that honorable Katyusha and welcome to on St. Antonio Maria Claret Academy, Lady-commander Katyusha and her escorts

Now I bow for a bit and I look up as to see Katyusha really got a the proud face while I saw both Nonna and Klara nodded as I started to guide them to the chairs and pouring their drinks since I know what drinks they wanted and the next knock and the door open to see it's St. Gloriana, Continuation High School, Anzio and Maginot Girls' as they enter and I start to greet them

Jude:Welcome to on St. Antonio Maria Claret Academy, Lady-Commanders of St. Gloriana, Continuation High School, Anzio and Maginot Girls'

Looking at the commanders and their escorts, Darjeeling, Assam and Orange Pekoe are wearing their tank uniform, since it's based on the royal guards, while on Anzio, I saw Il Duce Anchovy, Carpaccio and Pepperoni wearing fascista tanker uniform and it's really great now while Continuation High's commander and her escorts are wearing consists of light blue tracksuit with grey sleeves and collar with a white imprint of the school's kanji (継) on the left side of the chest, a grey pleated skirt and a pair of brown short boots, and plus it depends of the students of their school Mika, Aki and Mikko

Anchovy:Nice, so I am assuming that you're the commander of your team,

I just nodded and I saw Anchovy and Pepperoni go to me with a hug while Carpaccio just looked at her commander and Pepperoni

Anchovy:It's been a long time, Jude

Jude:The same Yo, Chiyomi, but for now we need to do this meeting

Now I feel they nodded as now they go to their sits while I saw Mika and Éclair, while to think about it, Éclair's uniform it's based on pre-post France while the ranking it's all around of a card shape

Éclair:It's been awhile Schwarzes Jäger-Ace or is it Black Hunter Ace

Jude:The same Éclair and hey there Mika

Mika:Hello Jude, I see you still have it

A few strokes of her kantele

Mika: Steel changes… but the hunter remains

The room settled, Once everyone was seated, I took my place at the head of the table.

Jude: Ladies and commanders, thank you for attending. This mock match will follow full Sensha-dō regulations. Terrain, weather, and vehicle authenticity will be enforced.

Darjeeling: How delightfully bold.

Katyusha smirked.

Katyusha: Then Pravda will not hold back.

Anchovy slammed her fist lightly on the table.

Anchovy: That's the spirit! A real match!

Mika plucked a final note.

Mika: Let's see how history sings today.

The mock match had begun—long before the first shot would ever be fired.

Darjeeling:But for the teams

Jude:If we look at the numbers of the school here, it's five so if it's possible that I take Anzio, Pravda and Maginot but we can make sure that both our sides have the same number of tanks since my school's goal to make sure my team will have experience for sensha-do

As the girls nodded at me since I am still the highlight on sensha-do topics for now

Anchovy:Don't worry commander Tsukihime, Anzio will bring victory

Katyusha:Don't forget Katyusha, as Katyusha will beat them and we can give a helping hand

Éclair just nodded as so we start to talk about other topics as Orange Peko point out something

Orange Peko:You really gone all out on this Commander Tuskihime

Jude:Well I do like to entertain guess

Mika:Oh about the battle format Commander Tsukihime,

Jude:That, we can make it flag format

Everyone nodded at this

Assam:Oh, who has here their first love

Now I saw most of the girls are blushed at this

Katyusha: Pff! That's for kids, The great Katyusha doesn't have time for such nonsense

At least make sure you are not blushing I mean from what I can remember that on her wiki that she doesn't have any crush while for Nonna and Klara for some reason I felt their eyes looking at me while we are eating snacks as for the others I don't know how they will answer this and damn you Assam, I thought you're the cool one, since I expected that question to rise on Roseship

Éclair:For me well he is a great guy and all

Mika: First love... something fleeting, like a snow falling down on a frozen lake, thought it leave scars

Darjeeling:It's a nice poet, Mika but thought somethings, late loves are the sweetest

Anchovy:Heh, My first love is someone near by

Carpaccio:Then, next question, what kind of person do you like

Now that's an easy answer for me

Jude:Well for me I like what people they are since it's based of what kind of person they are and I will love her

Now that got all of the girls here attention

Katyusha:As for the Great Katyusha, a strong and great person

… didn't you I don't know, don't want to involved on love and all

Jude:Anywho the rooms are provided by St. Antonio Maria Claret Academy, you can feel welcome to stay over night

Now all of them smiled at this and nodded as this meeting is ending since on the next day we might go on the mock battle
