Anglerfish, Turtle and Mallard teams were all called to the main hangar aboard the Oarai carrier for a special presentation. What was odd was that they were seeing Japanese soldiers, but even more strange was the presence of Chinese soldiers. They were standing near a large vehicle which was behind a large curtain, presumably a new tank for them to use. They came in and stood to the front of the curtain, taking wild guesses as to what was behind it. Yukari was making the wildest guesses, but had a solid idea of what it could be. "Okay, if there's eleven of us, and only one tank, it could be the Char 2C, or it could be the O-1, or maybe even the Sturmpanzerwagen! Wait, no, that's a first world war tank..." She said, buzzing about with vigor.

"Ladies, I'm sure you're wondering why you're here and why theres something behind this curtain." Captain Chono began. "Probably also wondering about the Chinese soldiers here."

"Yes, that did strike me as odd." Miho responded.

"Well, the thing is, there is indeed a new tank for you all to use behind this curtain. It will require all of you to operate it, however."

The Captain signaled one of the JGSDF troopers to move the curtain. Once it was out of the way, all of the girls started looking wide eyed at the new tank, which was a Japanese O-1 Superheavy tank. Yukari almost fainted, Miho cathcing her. "Watch out there, hon. You don't want to pass out before we get to use it."

"But it's a superheavy! It's an O-1!" Yukari said, still awestruck by the vehicle before them.

"How can we use this?" Sodoko asked.

"You see, this is not a reproduction. This is the original O-1. Since it was completed and had begun trials before August 1945, it can be used." The Captain answered.

"But I thought there wasn't any information to support that one was even built." Sodoko said, still wondering about it.

"That's where the PLA soldiers come into this. The O-1 here was sent into Manchuria. The Chinese army overwhelmed the crew and captured it. It has remained as a trophy until recently, when they decided to give it back. That came with a condition, the condition being that Chinese schools be allowed to participate in the tournament. A hefty donation to the council helped influence their decision."

"Now, we might have something that can fight the Maus a little easier." Anzu chuckled.

"You'll probably also be a match for the University team and their T28." Captain Chono said with a smile. "Oops, was I supposed to say that? Eh, it's out there now. Anyway, you ladies board your new vehicle and take it out to the field. You'll be in an exhibition match against others from select schools."

"Which schools?" Miho asked.

"You'll see. Get ready."

...

Once everyone had taken their places in the O-1, the heavy beast from the second world war made its way to the field. Once the Panzer Vor order was given, they moved it closer to a treeline for some cover, which only did so much to hide the massive silhouette of the vehicle. Out of nowhere, a well placed shot from an 88mm gun shattered on impact with the glacis, which made noise, but didn't make the vehicle budge and didn't make the flag pop. Miho looked through the periscope and saw the number '212' on the turret of a Tiger. Maho was in one of the competing schools and her tank fired a shot that would likely have disabled a tank with less armor.

Yukari loaded a round into the breech of the main gun while Hana spun the turret to return fire. Once she had the tiger dialed in, she fired, but the tiger started moving just as she was firing. The round would have been a solid hit as well, but it struck the ground behind it. The explosion was large enough to cast dirt into the air, and certainly let the Tiger crew know they were in for a fight. Sodoko in the starboard turret fired an armor piercing round at the Tiger and hit, but it had no effect other than a scratch on the paint.

Mako started turning the O-1 to assist the turn speed of the main turret, which made the difference. Yukari reloaded and Hana took the shot again. The impact and explosion were powerful enough to lift the bow of the tank off the ground by a few inches, and also popped the flag. "Kuromorimine Tiger I disabled." Was announced over the radio.

The O-1 started moving to displace, as the explosions would draw attention and the vehicle wasn't nimble enough to evade much of anything. When they were in the open, the port side of the hull was hit by an HE shell. The thick armor once again negated the damage. Miho looked through the periscope again and saw a Crusader Mk III moving about. Mako turned to port, thinking Hana would put another 105mm round on target. Hana was spinning the turret to do so, but was beaten to the punch by Sodoko. She had reloaded and mover her own turret into position, fired and hit the fast moving vehicle. The round appeared to be a lucky shot, managing to go low after bouncing off of the low side of the armor on the turret, lodging itself between the turret and hull. It wasn't enough to pop the flag, but it was enough to jam the turret. When Hana lined up the main gun, she noticed the tank stopping and the commander's hatch opening. Rosehip started waving a handkerchief, signaling surrender. "St. Gloriana Crusader Mk III partially disabled, crew surrender." Was announced.

"We're taking hits and still going. I don't want to get too cocky, but it's starting to look like we might make it through this." Miho said, keeping a concerned look about her.

As if answering her concerns about being cocky, three shots hit the tank at almost the same time, one on the main turret, the others on the glacis. All of them were armor piercing, but shattered when they hit the armor. To the front were three tanks from Chihatan academy, boldly charging the massive tank. Yukari loaded an AP round as well, Hana took aim at the lead vehicle and fired. The formation Chihatan were using was a bad choice, the AP round hit the lead vehicle on the hull with enough force to pop its flag, but the round bounced and hit the next one in line, also popping its flag. "Two Chihatan Shinhoto disabled."

Sodoko reloaded as well and prepared to fire at the remaining tank from Chihatan. In a typical move, the Chi-Ha continued charging. They managed to ram the O-1, but it had almost no effect. With the 37mm gun only a few feet away from the Chi-Ha turret, Sodoko fired, the close range shot popping the flag. "Chihatan Chi-Ha disabled."

...

Still moving, the O-1 crew saw something that was very wide and seemed to be moving, albeit rather slowly. It stopped and fired, the round bouncing off the hull and hitting the ground. This round was large and fast enough to jar the O-1 slightly, and when it did, everyone realized what it had to have been. The low silhouette, slow movement and powerful gun meant it was indeed the University team's T28. Yukari loaded another HE shell and Hana fired at it, the round hitting with enough force to blow the port side external tracks and carriage off. Since the external tracks were unpowered and not vital to the vehicle, its flag didn't pop and it kept moving. Sodoko tried shooting at it, with expected results. The AP round looked as though it was striking a match on the thick armor of the T28. The T28 fired again, this time having the round bounce off of the main turret as it did not hit a flat spot.

Still moving and relatively unfazed, the O-1 continued moving. Hana fired again, the AP round slamming into the mantlet with enough force to jam its gun into a completely fixed position. It also damaged the firing mechanism, but it didn't pop the flag. "University T28 partially disabled, unable to continue."

Everyone cheered after having taken on so many other tanks, including deadly models that had proven difficult to defeat. A shot from the distance rang out and a great force jarred the tank again, much to the surprise of everyone, as they thought they had taken out the final opponent. Mako and Hana turned the O-1 and main turret to face the direction they were shot at from. Yukari loaded an HE round and Hana dialed in the aggressor. It didn't appear to be any regular WW2 tank, which immediately had everyone thinking of what it could've been. Hana made the shot, not really expecting to hit the target due to the distance between them. The round hit the mud guard on the starboard side of the tracks, blowing the tracks off as well. "Pravda T-54 partially disabled, unable to continue."

...

After the match, everyone from all teams gathered at the hangar for the after action reports. The Oarai team asked about the T-54, not thinking that a cold war tank was allowed to compete. Everyone looked at Captain Chono, who pointed to Yukari. "Eh, it is actually allowed. The T-54 had prototypes built and in trials by August 1945, so the rules allow it." Yukari told everyone.

"You just watch out. We may meet again." The University T28 commander said as she walked away.

"Jeez, what's her problem?" Yukari huffed.

"The University team wasn't expecting another superheavy to be their target, I'm guessing." Maho answered.

"With this new tank, we should do just fine the next time we meet." Miho said, taking Yukari's hand.

"I guess you're right."

Mako stood next to Sodoko and took her hand as well. "You did well today. Knocked out two." Mako told her.

"Couldn't have done it without a competent driver." Sodoko responded, kissing her hand.

"In the end, you ladies performed excellently. Not many tanks would have the ability to knock out the T28 like that. Not from that range, anyway." Captain Chono said.

...

That night at home, Yukari was trying to move her arm around in an effort to relieve some of the soreness in her shoulder from loading the much heavier shells in the O-1. She kept doing it until Miho asked about it. "I'll be okay, I've just got to work it out a bit." Yukari answered.

"Let me help you with it."

Miho took them to the bedroom. She asked Yukari to take off her shirt and lay face down on the bed. Yukari went along with it, Miho looking away as she took off her shirt. "You've seen them before. Besides, we're girlfriends. I don't mind if you look." Yukari told her.

Miho turned around and looked Yukari in the eye. She closed her eyes and kissed her. "I love you, Yukari. Now lay down on the bed."

Yukari laid down and Miho mounted her, starting to rub her shoulders and back. Feeling adventurous, Miho kept going further down. Eventually she grabbed Yukari by the rear. "Hey, those aren't my shoulders." Yukari laughed.

"Butt... I couldn't help it." Miho also said laughing.

Miho kept rubbing her shoulders and back until she could tell Yukari was asleep. Then she covered both of them up and kissed Yukari on the cheek. "Sleep tight, hon."
