Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of War of the Waves. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own Azur Lane, Shanghai Manjuu, Ximen Yongshi and a few others do.

(Abandoned Island)

The Ironblood that located Leviathan decided to let him be dealt with by Tirpitz. She slowly walked forward across the water towards her former friend.

"Leviathan…" She growled out, grasping her flag tipped spear as she walked onto the island.

Leviathan turned to be greeted by the figure who used to be friend that she wanted. He sighed and looked at her, Roon, Admiral Hipper and U-47 were behind her.

All awaiting her orders, all eager to fight if they had to. It made Leviathan wonder just how much the Ironblood respected their commanders… but he couldn't let them take him alive.

Tirpitz strode towards Leviathan, her lance continued to twirl in her hands, a weapon wishing to draw blood from someone who wronged its master.

"Pitz…" Leviathan had no intention of fighting his friend, he didn't want to kill her, to see her bleed or fall in combat.

"DO NOT CALL ME THAT…" Tirpitz hissed with no small amount of bile in her voice, utterly enraged at the sheer gall that her former ally had.

Leviathan prepared for combat, the plane like drones hovered around him as he summoned his bow. He was glad to have started learning how to use it… but he was afraid that he would be killed in combat against the much superior warrior that was Tirpitz.

"We don't have to fight. I don't want to do this." Leviathan plead, he knew his words were like tainted poison to her.

Still, he didn't wish to come to blows with Tirpitz, even if she held him captive? They were friends, he wouldn't hurt her if he could.

Leviathan was still forced to fight her as she charged forward. He ducked the blow and slid back wards before notching a arrow.

"Please…" Tirpitz looked at him for a moment, wondering if he was serious.

No, she shook the thought from her head, her friend had ended up throwing her under the table and making her fight her own sister. She couldn't relent in her anger towards someone who she was angered by.

He fired the arrow which was deflected, Tirpitz circled him while her allies retreated. Their only orders by their commander was to locate the enemy so she could engage him.

"Fight!" Levaithan looked at her with sympany and she screamed before unleashing her canons at him.

He was thrown back into the water, too slow to dodge the onslaught even if he wanted to. It was becoming clear from the brief minutes that Leviathan had started to fight her that his heart wasn't in the fight.

"I'm sorry I lied… but I cant let Bismarck get any information from me. she isnt going to use it right… she'll hurt people with it." Leviathan stated before sending drones towards her.

She started to deflect them before another arrow hit her leg, knocking her to the ground as Leviathan slowly lugged his wounded body to a standing pose.

He never lost the pity, the remorse. It was quite clear she was angry, but her heart didn't look like it was entirely in the fight either.

"You betrayed me… and her. you made me look like a idiot." Tirpitz forced herself to her feet, growling and swating one of the respawning drones.

Leviathan stared at her, she trembled with rage, wanting to crush him to death under her power. she wanted to destroy him and make him suffer.

But seeing his amethyst colored eyes. He really didn't wish to fight her.

She leapt forward, knocking his bow from his hands as he looked at her. she growled and raised her lance while pinning him to the ground.

"Why are you so sorry? WHY ARE YOU INVADING MY THOUGHTS!?" She hissed as Leviathan raised his arms to look at her.

He made no effort to stop her from murdering him, this finally gave her the impression that he wouldn't attempt to defend himself if she truly wished to murder him. she didn't have the heart to finish him off.

Her feelings were raw, she couldn't look him in the eye, but she couldn't simply murder someone who had been her friend so often in such a short period of time.

Leviathan hummed, she rested her spear away from his throat. Her breath was ragged, and he could clearly launch drones to try and engage her if he so wished.

He didn't wish to try and engage her in combat. His entire reason for fighting her was out of self defense, he wanted to keep himself alive.. but the longer he was currently fighting her? he didn't want to fight someone he felt guilty to trick into getting out of this to begin with. He was a warrior.

"So what now?" He asked her, she had no real answer for the moment.

What could be said currently?
