Chapter 127 - CHAPTER : 127 : The Welsh Dragon and The Duke

"..... Weirdoes...."

"Damn. Even the Girls here called you that." Kidd said.

"They were referring to us." JP Jones corrected her.

"That doesn't matter, everyone here looks weird with their outfit." Jimmy said referring to the Shipgirls' clothing that differs in design with some futurist elements.

But the one that really sticks out, is the Siren's choice of clothing. Tight Latex Dress that only covers some small parts of the sensitive areas. If a man would ask, he's in Victoria's Secret.

"My~ I'm not expecting a Victoria Secret's Models here picking a fight." Kidd said with a childish tone in her voice while having a serious look in her eyes.

"Victoria Secret's Model??? I don't know what you're referring to, but I can assure you, I don't give a damn about your word human. Now die!" Tracker Mk-III coldly said.

JP Jones, Jimmy and Kidd exchange glances and each other and curt nods as the tense atmosphere is slightly changing and slowly creeping at their skin.

And with that Jimmy dives down below with his Submarine Rigging to contest the Lurkers lurking below, thinking they were not detected by surface force. Bad Luck for them, Jimmy's advanced sonar arrays detected their acoustic signatures seconds ago.

8 21-inch Torpedo Tubes opened as it was loaded with MK-48 Heavy Weight Torpedo, he pulled the trigger button at his right handle.

8 Mk-58 Heavy Weight Torpedo were launched and headed straight at the Lurkers. The Lurkers were all unaware of the 8 Speed Demons that were heading at them.

Before they could react to the incoming MK-48s, 8 of them vanished as chunks and broken Rigging sunk below the abyss.

Surface above, JP Jones and Kidd both launch MK-53 Nulka Decoys and activate their Electronic Countermeasures to disrupt the Siren's firing aim.

Plasma Cannons from the Siren Ships were all missed their shots and the Siren Planes above were being swatted down by the Aegis Destroyers CIWS Phalanx and SeaRAM.

Kidd with her dual M1911s shots every Humanoid Sirens dead center at their heads with 45. ACP. Her MK-45 Naval Gun also joined in targeting the Siren Ship as it exchanged blows with Naval Fire.

JP Jones attacked the highest-profile targets of interest and bombarded the Siren Carriers with LRSAMs to ensure the enemy didn't gain Air-Superiority above the battlefield.

Tracker MK-III orders the rest of the Executor-Class to defend their Carriers from the Missile barrage that the newly arrived Modern Kansens put up.

The Sirens thought of the capability of the Modern Kansens and developed a plan of their own to counter the Aegis Combat System that is responsible for the god-like interceptions of their attacks. Now they developed a saturation base attacks.

"You think you've won this time? No. we came in prepared if one of you intervened." Tracker MK-III said as she ordered the saturation attack.

Multiple Rockets that vary in size, but had the same devastating effect if not intercepted. Siren Rockets rained down at JP Jones and Kidd as their Aegis Combat System tracked and predicted the raining Rockets down.

CIWS Phalanx and SeaRAM along with ODIN Dazzler, targeted the raining rockets that the Siren Ships fired at them.

"Great, another unguided rocket saturation attack. How many times do we have to face this uncanny attack?" Kidd said, as her active defense shoots it all down.

JP Jones with his CIWS Phalanx shoots down the raining rockets mid-air as he and Kidd are pushed back from the numerous rockets that rain down at them.

"Another World or not, we still get targeted by cheap rockets in saturation attacks." JP Jones replies.

As the Modern Kansens attract the attention of the Sirens, the Eagle Union Shipgirls take the moment of the Siren's vulnerability and attack them from their weakest formation.

Colorado, Maryland and West Virginia aimed their Main-Guns at the distracted Siren Battleships and opened fire at its weak point.

Destroyers perform a Torpedo-Run at the sides of the Siren Ships exposed positions, the Torpedo swiftly swims and hits its target with devastating results.

Siren Ships that were hit by Torpedo split in the middle and sunk.

Tracker MK-III noticed her mistake, corrected her plan of action and sent 5 Tracker MK-Is to handle the Eagle Union Shipgirls.

~Underneath~

Jimmy devastates the pack of Siren Submarines - the Lurkers with a MK-48 Heavy Weight Torpedo in its devastating effectiveness of handling submerged threats.

Lurker MK-II ain't that happy with the result of the battle (if you say it that way) she lost 8 Lurkers from the start of the battle even though they were not engaging the enemy yet. They were all caught off guard by a large margin at their numbers and their ranks.

Jimmy uses the agility, maneuverability and quick speed of the Seawolf Submarine capability as he engages the numbers of Lurkers lurking below.

The Underwater battle ain't even fair as both sides differ in the technology and mindset on warfare.

Seawolf Submarines are the Hunter Killers when it comes to Submarine Warfare in the cold waters of the Atlantic and Pacific.

Siren Submarines, along with the Lurkers are like German Submarines of WW2, they operated in packs and targeted convoy vessels and not Submarines like what we know today as Submarine Warfare.

Siren Homing Torpedoes were all outmatched by the MK-48s and its constant upgrades throughout the years, making it more versatile and deadly in the Western Pacific - if the conflict with China arises in the East.

Jimmy uses sound-making Acoustic Signature Countermeasures to divert all the Siren Torpedoes out of him. He then returns the favor by launching his own attack.

Lurkers ranging from MK-Is and MK-IIs did the same as they too launched their own Countermeasures at the 8 MK-48s rapidly approaching them.

The Lurkers thought they avoided the certain doom as they launched their own Countermeasures until all 8 MK-48s used active homing guidance as it broke through at their curtain of defense.

MK-48s famous for their wire guidance and active homing broke through the Siren curtain of defense and targeted each Lurkers like they were all dummy targets by the torpedoes like in a Naval Exercise.

Lurker MK-II wants to retaliate for the loss she sustained at him, but couldn't. Jimmy submerged deeper than any Siren Submarines could achieve, their Torpedoes are meant for surface targets and not those Submarines that are capable of submerging deep.

"Curses! This man is different than what our Data Base says, he's beyond that man's capability."

Lurker MK-II said as she tried to find any similarities between the Kansen they were currently engaging and the Kansen at their data files.

The Kansen that the Data Files is referring to is Arizona, the Siren studied his attack pattern and unconventional ways of fighting that are beyond rational human thinking.

But this one they currently engaging in battle moves in rational and thinks through every attack it's made, and how to counter their attack. The dark silhouette and the darkness of the bottom of the Atlantic Sea and his quietness give an eerie silence of a hunter lurking underneath its prey.

"Have you detected anything?" She asked one of the Lurkers beside her.

"Negative. I have not detected any acoustic signature coming from below, our sight was unable to see any further below because of the darkness covering the seafloor." Lurker MK-I reported.

'Shit!' She bit her nail at her thumb in contemplation. 'We can't use our infrared eyesight down below because of the cold waters of the Atlantic Waters and it's too dark below. Our Sonars failed to detect any acoustic signatures he produced... Damn it! What kind of Human Nation would have built such a capability?'

She asked herself about that question, as to why the humans in another world manage to build more advanced weaponry than this world's humans. There are no Siren threats there, so how would the humans there manage to out build them like its ahead of them when it comes to technology and weaponry?

"Turn off your engines." She orders them to not let him find their acoustic signatures.

All the Lurkers followed suit and started turning off their engines to reduce the noise they emitted underwater. Now the engine noise is replaced by eerie silence and anticipation along with their beating hearts.

Meanwhile, below them, Jimmy uses the Sonar Scan and manages to create a 3D image of the Sirens above him. The 3D image rendering gives him the current number of Sirens.

The 3D image helps him manage to differentiate between the Sirens and Marine Mammals in the area as possible targets because of the lack of visibility.

'No acoustic signatures, huh?... Are they switching to their Batteries? No. Even though they switched into their batteries to reduce their engine noises their propeller cavitation should be making a cavity as it spins... so that means....'

It struck him of what the Lurkers were trying to do was to deny him of any target. 'Not so clever move... turning off your engines as to avoid detection. That move surely worked on WW2 tactics back then, but... that would make you all a stationary target in modern Submarine Warfare. How pitiful.'

"Torpedo Tubes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 are now loaded, MK-48s armed and ready." An A.I. voice announced.

Jimmy smirks then grips the handle and presses the firing button of his Submarine Rigging. 8 MK-48s came out from the 8 Torpedo Tube Launcher and swam up at the location of the Lurkers.

Lurker MK-I's eyes widen at the sudden sound of cavitation sounded. "I've detected multiple acoustic signatures! It's a TORPEDO!"

The Lurkers scramble to dodge the rising Torpedoes; they all hastily turn their engines on as they perform evasive maneuvers underwater.

8 of them fell victim to the MK-48's devastating attack and only left them in an even number of 8 of 32.

"Damn it! I wish we have a Deep-Diving Torpedoes!" Lurker MK-II cursed at the lack of capability as their enemy was targeting them beyond their tactical range.

"What should we do, we've been cut into a small number. We can't fight an enemy that lurks in the darkness below like a hunter. Were outgunned and outmatched." One of the remaining Lurker MK-Is said in panic.

Lurker MK-II spoke in a stern voice, defiant at facing off an enemy beyond their capabilities. "There's no way to run or hide, we can't do a thing but to face our opponent head-on..."

"That's suicidal!" one of the Lurker MK-I exclaimed.

"Yes, it is. But this is a fight we can't turn tail and run, we need to face it, even if the chance of victory is slim. We have to face it no matter what." Lurker MK-II said as she didn't want to back out in this fight.

Jimmy down below hears what she said as he listens from his passive sonar. 'Not bad for an enemy of humanity.... But.... Cowardice and bravery are totally different things when thinking tactically. You guys should have retreated when I fired those warning shots before.'

"Torpedo Tubes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 are now loaded, MK-48 armed and ready." An A.I. voice announced the second time as it waited on standby.

Jimmy turned his attention up above where the remaining Lurkers. 'Now then... what was your next move, you either fight until the end... or retreat?'

He waited for their response, he didn't have to wait as their acoustic signatures told him what they were all trying to attempt.

'Diving that deep to face me... that's quite a bold move for a Submarine.'

Lurker Mk-II leads the remaining Lurkers at their depth ceiling in order to face off an enemy that is superior in many regards.

The underwater pressure bent their pressure hulls and damaged some of their sensors. The underwater pressure also got through to their Humanoid bodies, as some parts were being crushed.

Jimmy looks at them as they are now visible in each other's eyes. Jimmy seems not thrilled to see them going down deep to finish him off.

"I'm surprised you guys survived the extreme underwater pressure of 2,400ft in order to finish me off." He said as to face to face with the Sirens.

Lurker MK-II battered from the extreme pressure did not care about his commentary.

"Don't waste your words on me other-worlder, I'm here to finish you off." She said as the extreme underwater pressure is slowly dents her Siren Submarine Rigging.

Jimmy gives her and the other remaining Lurkers a glance before launching his MK-48s at them. The Lurkers did the same as they to release their own Torpedoes at him.

Some of the Torpedoes that the Lurkers fired upon him succumbed to the extreme underwater pressure and detonated prematurely. Some manage to overcome the extreme underwater pressure and track him.

Jimmy launched multiple countermeasures against the Siren Homing Torpedoes that were targeting him. Jimmy uses his add-on thrusters in front of the bow in order to perform a tight maneuver that is no common in Modern Submarines could do.

All of the Torpedoes that the Lurkers fired at him simply passed him and some diverted their tracks because of the countermeasures he deployed.

He turned his gaze at the remaining Lurkers who were unmoved at the incoming MK-48s in their general direction.

He saw them having a hard time moving out of the way of the incoming Torpedoes, the extreme underwater pressure was slowly crushing their Submarine Rigging along with their bodies.

Jimmy and Lurker MK-II both give each other a glance before the 8 MK-48s explode and take down the remaining Siren underwater threat.

"You never yield." He said as he watched the Lurker's remains fall into the dark abyss of the Atlantic Seafloor.

After watching them all go down, he quickly looked up as the battle at the surface seems getting heated up from the explosion that reverberated through the undersea current.

~Surface~

JP Jones and Kidd take care of the rest of the Siren Carriers and their Planes as the CIWS Phalanx, SeaRAM and ODIN Dazzler shoot down most of it.

Bgm-109 Tactical Tomahawk Cruise Missile Block V and LRASMs take care of the bigger Siren Ships and the armored ones.

The Colorado Sisters and their Escorts take care of the rest of the Siren Ships that remained from the battle, some of them were Cruisers and Destroyers.

"Lay your weapons down Siren, the battle is over, you're outnumbered and surrounded." JP Jones said, Rifle raised along with his MK-45 Naval Gun.

Strategist MK-III growls in frustration and fury as these two Modern Kansen with unknown origins flipped the table with ease, just like flipping a small furniture table.

"Damn you.... I will not yield to you, humans. You dare underestimate us Sirens with our powers!" She remarked as she stayed defiant at all the guns pointed at her.

"Is she referencing Star Wars or what?" Kidd asked at the comms in a humorous undertone.

JP Jones replied. "Donno... but I think she has an ace on her sleeves... so be careful. We're fighting an Alien with unknown technologies here."

"Although, unknown it maybe... it was all crap. Saturated Rocket, Naval Gun engagement tactics of WW2 and Jet-Planes with Early generation of Jet-Engine and Missiles." Kidd said not amused at the Siren Weaponry.

"Still.... Those that are so-called outdated to us still impose some risk even though it's quite outdated." JP Jones said not lowering his guard on Strategist MK-III.

Then their SPY-1/D Aegis Radar picked up some readings beyond any anomalical readings on their recording appear.

Their eyes widened as they both saw a portal-like circle appear above them, the length of the portal surpassed that of Manhattan, New York. Then as their horrors materialized, several Siren Ships varied in shapes and sizes.

"Oh, come on! Really?! What kind of BS Multiplayer is this?!" Kidd exclaimed in frustration at the sudden appearance of Siren reinforcements.

"So. This is how you guys manage to bypass the defenses and invade the mainland? I thought teleporting behind enemy lines was optional.... But this. This is out of proportion." JP Jones said as he saw Siren Ships fall in the sky and splash down at the surface of the ocean.

Strategist MK-III let out a villainous haughty laugh as she watched the dumbfounded faces plastered around JP Jones' face and Kidd, who sees the very first Siren Portal in their lives.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... What you were seeing is the real power of the Siren Race, you may halt us on our tracks, but you cannot stop the advancing Siren forces. You mere insects won't stop us!" She said hand raised like in a prayer.

'Shit! My Anti-Ship Missiles are on its half inventory if this continues... we might be forced into Naval Artillery engagement.' JP Jones thought as he tried to find any alternative options for dealing with the reinforced Siren Forces.

"Kidd." He radioed.

"Yes?"

"Target only those valuable Ships like Carriers and Battleships, my inventory is low on Anti-Ship Missiles."

"Well that's bad news," Kidd said. "These bastards seemed like to spam the battlefield with numbers. Seems like we're back in good ol' guns only, huh?"

"Yes. We need to conserve our Missiles now the enemy can spam their numbers in an alarming rate." JP Jones said.

"Alright, I'll take care of the Carriers and their Planes, you'll take care of that bitch and the Big-Gun Battleship."

"Seems like a good plan."

The two then separate and engage their own targets, Kidd is taking care of the Siren Carriers and its Planes.

JP Jones is now left taking care of Strategist MK-III and its Siren Battleship Escorts.

"Hey Bitch, eyes here!" He shouted to get her attention.

Strategist MK-III turn her attention to him with an irritated look on her face, she didn't like being a bitch by the Modern Kansens multiple times in the past few hours now.

"I will make you regret saying those words coming out of your mouth!" She yelled in anger.

JP Jones didn't care about her banter and continued to open fire with his remaining NSMs to shut her up. Tomahawk Missiles and LRASMs targeted the Battleships that is giving her a protected screen.

One by one all the Siren Battleships explode as Tomahawk Missiles and LRASMs hit their targets. Strategist MK-III activated her Force-Field as to block the incoming NSM Missile dashing towards her.

As the surroundings were shrouded by smoke and flames, JP Jones dashes forward to deliver a blow. MK-45 Naval Guns fired up continuously along with CIWS Phalanx to break her defense.

"Is that the best you ever got? How pathetic, you never even break through my defense." Strategist Mk-III scorns his meeker attack at her defensive shield.

JP Jones retreats back to give himself and her a distance. 'Damn it, that damn Force-Field again. It negates all my attacks like it's all nothing but a hindrance.'

He cursed as his attacks were all futile in the face of the Siren Force-Field, as if he praying for something to happen. Something happened unexpectedly that surprised him completely.

Strategist MK-III's Force-Field broke like glass as huge explosion compared to 1,000lbs of explosives blasted through her defenses.

"What the – who did that?!" He quickly asked himself at that.

As to find an answer to his question, his Aegis Radar picked up a Friendly Signal being emitted far away at the battlefield. The phased array antenna of his Aegis Radar focused in that direction to identify the Friendly signal he's been picking up.

To his surprise, it belongs to Zumwalt's Signal Identification.

"Curses, who dare!" Strategist MK-III frustratingly cursed at the fact that her defenses shattered in mere instance, the worst part is that the assailant is nowhere to be found with her Radar.

"Don't you dare shift your priorities on me." JP Jones quickly shifts his attention to her. Several LRAMs and Tomahawk Missile was fired at her.

Strategist Mk-III quickly raised her defenses, but all the Missile that being fired at her impacted her Force-Filed, and broke it. Strategist MK-III stops in her tracks and falls into the ocean surface as the blast wave of the explosion gets into her.

Strategist MK-III on her knees battered and bruised, looks at him with hate and anger. She never thought she was going to fight two Modern Kansens, and with her carelessness, she was in bad shape and couldn't fight back anymore.

She then laughs. "Silly human, you think I would go down that easily... we will meet again ----- "

Before she could finish off her final words she was cut in half by an unknown force, it was a blur, but the clear image is that someone had cleaved the reality itself.

JP Jones covers himself at the gust of wind coming from the unknown force that split Strategist Mk-III in half.

( IMAGE )

"Pardon my tardiness... I've just finished-off the rest of these vermin on my way here." Zumwalt's voice sounded, as if a calm wind blew gently over the storm.

"Oh, it was just you. I can't detect over my Radar." JP Jones said.

"No need to heightened your sensors... there are none lingering around."

"If you say so." JP Jones double check his Aegis Combat System. "Seems you're right, there are no hostiles in the area."

Kidd sails beside him as she finishes off the Siren Carriers and their Planes, Kidd is intrigued at the dimensional cut that Zumwalt have performed.

"That was amazing! How did you do that?"

"That was not a mere a magnificent feat, it was just a simple attack to cut the enemy without them knowing your presence." Zumwalt said raising his sheathed Katana.

"You call that simple, I saw you split those two Massive Siren Warships like it was nothing." JP Jones said, a hint of praise in his tone.

"I saw it too." Kidd added.

"Those two Massive Siren Warships was that of waste of potential, my efforts and 'Motivation'." He said a hint of lament on his tone.

"On my way here... I saw a peculiar Division of Ships, a Modern Frigate and a bunch of WW2 Destroyers." Zumwalt pointed at the horizon for the two to see.

Both JP Jones and Kidd squinted to see, in their surprise, it's a Constellation Class Frigate that was silhouetted over the horizon, accompanied by several WW2 Destroyers – just like how Zumwalt had pointed out.

"That's quite strange... I have never seen a Constellation Frigate on this world escorted by Fletcher Class Destroyers." Kidd said while stowing away her M1911.

"I don't know what the Frigate doing here, maybe a quick and frantic change in priorities." JP Jones said.

"I do believe, it was one of the summoned Ship, or Kansens. One of the Sirens had said as far as I remember." Zumwalt said.

As the three fall into a conversation, they both don't notice a group of Kids with WW2 Destroyer Rigging and wearing Ballistic Kevlar Vest are watching them from their backs. And one of them spoke out loud.

"Hey! Are the three of you did this?" The Kid who asked seemed the leader of the Group asked them.

JP Jones and Kidd quickly turn their attention to the voice of a kid that boomed over their backs. At their back, they both saw a Kid in Kevlar Vest and a Kid Sailor Uniform underneath the Vest.

Zumwalt didn't have to, because he noticed them a long time ago.

"Who are you?" JP Jones asked the Kid.

"Oh, sorry my bad, I didn't introduce myself yet. My name is Charles Ausburne the leader of the Beaver Squad."

"Destroyer Squadron 23 'The Little Beavers'." JP Jones said as he eyed everyone on the Beaver Squad.

"Yes. That's us, but sometimes we are often called the Beaver Squad." Charles Ausburne remarked.

"By the way.... where did you get those?" JP Jones pointed eyes squinting at the Kevlar Vest they all wore.

"Oh, this? It was given to us by Lafayette." Charles Ausburne said.

"Huh, that's weird?" Kidd muttered to herself. "I thought were the only ones in a weird shape, seems like tonnage and length is a big factor in Kansenization."

JP Jones also falls into a deep contemplation about the topic. "At the displacement of 2,000 tons and length of 376ft, seems like matching the characteristics of a child compared to the other Classes of Ships."

"I thank you strangers for helping us out on defeating this attacking Siren Forces. I don't want to be rude but, may I ask your names?" Ticonderoga said in a friendly gesture.

"USS John Paul Jones DDG-53, 3rd of the Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers of the United States Navy." JP Jones introduced himself.

"USS Kidd DDG-100, 50th of the Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers of the United States Navy." Kidd introduces herself along with some tipping of her feather hat.

Ticonderoga and the rest turn their gazes at the one who seems to be stoic and cold as an artic. Their attention was that on Zumwalt, his sharp edge Rigging caught the attention as if comparing to the others (Laffey-200 and Bunker Hill-76).

Zumwalt introduced himself in a silent yet audible to the nearby ears. "USS Zumwalt DDG-1000, 1ST of the Class of Zumwalt Class Stealth Destroyers."

The Beavers were confused at the 'Stealth' part of him being a Destroyer as no one had mention that before, even the Modern Kansens themselves.

"Cool, are you like those Sakuran? You have a sword." Charles Ausburne said, with a praise. The rest of the Beaver Squad did the same.

Foote pointed. "It looks like one of those Sakuran swords."

"it is, it is." They all echoed.

"I am no Sakuran... I am American, born in the confines of Bath Iron Works, perceived by the Military Industrial Complex as the most advance and technological Warship that ever graced the surface of the ocean. And you dare asked me if I'm one of those ---"

"Okay... that's enough. You didn't want to threaten these Children with your existence of power." JP Jones stepped-in to prevent the Beavers from turning into something else.

"Let's introduced Jimmy next?"

"Fine." Zumwalt conceded, breaking his menacing aura.

"And down below is USS Jimmy Carter SSN-23, 3rd of the Seawolf Class." JP Jones introduces Jimmy down below.

The Escort Destroyers and Cruisers looked down below as they all listened to their Sonar to find him. WW2 Sonar Technology ain't going to work on a Submarine that was made at the height of the Cold-War and at the top of the hunter's chain.

Jimmy let out a ping to let them know from the surface that he was down below them, and listening. The ping that he released startled some at the sudden ping below their feet.

"Sorry about that... he can't still immerge yet for some security purposes." JP Jones said.

"Oh, I see your concerns there. It must be tough to find yourselves in a strange world?" Ticonderoga said as she noticed the barely confused looks at him.

"Yes. We kinda new in this world anyways... so, can you tell us about that Modern Frigate over there." JP Jones pointed at the Constellation Class Frigate.

Ticonderoga gives a curt smile. "I think he should be the one to explain that to you."

"He?" He exclaimed in reaction.

"Yes. You're not the only Male-Kansen, only few of them." She explains.

Ticonderoga turn a glance at Zumwalt who seems to have holding-off himself from the barrage of question being thrown at him by the Shipgirls nearby. Commenting at his edgy personality and stoicism.

"Say... Is he always like that?" she asked whisperingly.

"We've only meet in few hours ago, but knowing his records and based on his history... it was his personality of being like that." JP Jones said.

~Few Minutes passed~

Both JP Jones, Kidd and Zumwalt looked at the person in front of them. He had the stature of a Middle-Schooler who got dragged into a war, and surrounded by escorts.

"What in the name of Napoleon Dynamite." JP Jones exclaimed in surprise to see Lafayette.

"A fricken' Frenchman, ey?" Kidd said.

"All my life I have expected any surprises... yet I failed to comprehend that a French would greet us." Zumwalt said, his tone was that of disappointment.

Lafayette spoke, as he sensed that the three were judging him by the looks they were giving to him. "Please don't look at me like that. I know it sounds weird but it is what it is."

"Yeah, we know.... But aren't you 're supposed to be stationed on the Pacific. What are you doing here?" JP Jones said as he pointed at him.

"And it seems I'm not the only commissioned Ship that being summoned here." Zumwalt added.

Lafayette is embarrassed and had a hard time of how he would explain to them how he ended-up in this world along with the others.

"How the hell did you end up in this world?" JP Jones questioned.

"I'm about to asked you the same thing but before that, we need to discuss things in private." Lafayette said as he motioned to them to follow him inside the ship.

JP Jones, Kidd and Zumwalt followed suit to discuss things in private space as the topic of their transference was so sensitive. Inside the ship, they both discussed the current situation and the whole ordeal with the Siren Threat.

As the Americans discussed among themselves what is the current situation at the Siren 3rd Invasion, at the Capital of Royal Isles, battle in the skies still ensues as the Royal Air-Force and a few Propeller Planes from the Carriers battle the Siren Planes to regain control over the skies over London.

Above the skies of London, Shadow of Corruption: Ootoi, a large chard black Phoenix Bird flew above and destroyed most of the defenses and the Royal Air-Force Planes out of the skies.

Anti-Air Gun Crews lit up the skies with air-burst shells, some impacted the Phoenix Bird-like creature directly with some avails in their endeavors.

The City of London experienced a once-in-a-lifetime attack in the air that destroyed most of the houses in the Capital. At the River Thames, Royal Navy Shipgirls raised their guns up above in order to shoot down the massive Phoenix Bird.

Main-Guns and AA-Guns lit up so much that the River Thames is covered with fumes of gunpowder as the guns of the Town Class Cruisers lit up so much fire.

George V lead the remaining Capital Defenses of London. Battleship cannons raised above and rang out, the volley of the Artillery fire got the Phoenix Bird's attention.

Shadow of Corruption: Ootoi dives down to swipe down the remaining City Defense. Everyone on the ground takes over and ran for cover, as the Phoenix Bird opens its mouth for its breath attack.

George V stood there, guns and saber pointed up at the diving down Phoenix Bird, she stood defiant in facing the incoming attack.

"You won't scare me you, vermin!" She shouted as she stood her ground.

But then suddenly. Like a miracle itself, an unknown came from knower and impacted the Phoenix Bird's neck making it tumble out of the sky and fall into the River Thames.

"What the—" George V turned her head to where the attack came from, and then she heard a haughty laugh followed by a boorish voice.

"HAHAHAHA, Role Britannia you fucking chard over cooked Peacock!" A Woman with wings, tails and horns of a Red Wales-Dragon equipped with Type-45 Destroyer.

That Woman then gives a middle finger as she breathes fire from her mouth, Besides her is another woman with an unfamiliar rigging she has never seen before.

The other Woman is Blond and wears an Amor Plate and bears a crest of the Duke of Willington.

George V's facial expression is washed with total confusion as the two Women Figures stand there nonchalantly as heroes come in time to save the day.

She's confused by the personality of the two. The Woman with the Humanoid Dragon Figure had a boorish and reckless personality. The other one, a Blond Knight is chivalrous and had some discipline just being stood there.

"Who – who are you?" She asked the identity of the two strangers appearing above.
