Since the start of the fleet,There was a girl who always fought on the front line, sinking enemies everyday.She was strong.
She was confident.
She was popular.I did it, Murasame!She was the Sendai whom I loved.Ah, that hurt.

I'm glad you were able to recover, Sendai.Thanks for taking care of me like usual.Sendai - had a habit of being too overconfident at times, but - her stunning energy made her shine like a star.Well, it's not that bad.I'm the strongest, so I have to work hard.No matter what we come across,I'll beat them for you.She was the one we (the destroyers) all admired.But,Huh...Heavy cruisers...?So you're Sendai?Thank you for fighting in the front lines. But you're just a light cruiser.It's going to get rough out there.Thanks for your hard work.It's fine to leave the rest to us.simply put, it was fighting over available space.Those who served their purpose got removed.as for the main fleet, I was lucky enough to stay as support. But, Sendai was removed even from the expeditionary fleets.Sendai!Ah!Wait!Since then...you've been like this, and whenever you see me...you just run away.I want to talk to you.I want you to return to how you were before.I... want to go back to how I was before too.But... as you can clearly see, I'm reduced to shambles.I don't even know how I can apologize to you.I claimed that I was great at night battles, and I boasted that I was the strongest.I want to kill that arrogant self of mine from the past.After my overconfident self fell, it was over in an instant.Sendai...Weren't they awesome at night battles?My talents I boasted repeatedlywere nothing even to mention for the truly talented.I stooped low enough to brag about something so meaningless.But it wasn't my fault.It's not like I've gone bad.I was just bad from the beginning, and my secret leaked out!That's...All I hear from the fleet is badmouthing towards me.Those who were the closest to me seem to talk the loudest, but I can understand why.They say, "I can't believe I used to like her."Doesn't it embarrass you? Doesn't it disgust you!?I know that the girls around me say horrid things, ...But I...But you should hate me the most!You have far more accomplishments than me.You must regret telling others that you used to admire me.Don't you wish to pretend it never happened? It's okay to tell me the truth!I bet all the other brats probably drifted away from you. They all like strong ones after all.But what am I supposed to do!? This is who I am!Even though you were removed from the first fleet, and lost to the heavy cruisers,I will always admire you, Sendai...
Quit lying...You're probably making fun of me...
You too will probablydrift away from me soon!I'm not lying.Sendai, no matter if you one day become strong,or can't manage to become strong, I'll always be with you..........
Yeah...
Thank you...I...in truth I...knew about the heavy cruisers,Thank you, Murasame...and that Sendai would eventually get removed from the front lines.I knew that people would drift away from her.I knew that she would succumb to her eventual tragedy.I knew it all....But that's why I continued to love her.No matter what happens,I'll be with you forever.So that the strong, confident, and popular Sendaiwill be solely mine.Rain That Falls Gathers down into the River. -the end-It's been a while.
