Chapter 141

Sunrise was the first to feel the brush in her mind. The battleship was two weeks into a long patrol west of Hawaii, keeping an eye on the border. Since the attack on Japan, nothing had been seen of Liaoning. But she knew the Chinese flagship was out there. Sunrise stifled her snort. Flagship? More like Aurora's lackey. The same could be said for Kuznetsov although in the latter's case it was more due to Aurora's insatiable need for power rather than the carrier's lack of backbone. And the less said about the Zhukov-class the better. There were three known so far. Zhukov herself, Andropov, and Stalin. One of them was no doubt why Sunrise was being bothered now. She closed her eyes and relaxed, opening herself up to the presence. "You're getting better but your power is still stifling." She thought. "I'm working on it." Moonser replied. "Stand by for orders. Missouri is redirecting Blue Ridge to join you. You're both going to go on a special mission." "Understood." Sunrise replied.
