The following day, Sampson, Eugen, and Hipper sat at an outdoor diner. Where they ate breakfast together.

Ticonderoga: Of all the years we've known each other, I never knew you were into German girls!

Sampson looks to his right, his face lighting up with a smile as he notices Ticonderoga approaching them.

Sampson: Hey, Ticon! Fine morning!

Ticonderoga wraps Sampson in a soft hug. Sampson then looks back at Eugen and Hipper and says.

Sampson: This is Ticonderoga, she's my sister

Hipper: You have a sister?!

While Hipper was quite surprised to hear such news, Eugen appeared to be quite displeased and irritated, giving Ticon a devilish look as she crossed her arms.

Ticonderoga: I know what your thinking. First of all, nice to meet you. Second of all...He said were siblings!!!

Eugen: Right, and how do you know about us two?

Ticonderoga: Uh, duh! Everyone is talking about you two! Especially you Sam!

Sampson: What about me?

Ticonderoga: Ever since our big battle two days ago, you've been growing a reputation! Girls are starting to call you the "cowboy from hell"

She said as she nudged his shoulder with her elbow, smirking.

Sampson: Cowboy from hell, not bad...I think I'll stick to it.

Hipper looks Sampson in the eyes in response.

Hipper: Please don't

Eugen: Cowboy from hell?

Eugen leans over to Sampson and whispers softly into his ear.

Eugen: I like it...

Hipper whips her head and looks away with a cringing face.

Hipper: Oh good god, stop...

Ticonderoga: Anyway, gotta get back to work, see ya Saaaam!

Ticonderoga said as she walked away, waving her hand with a big smile.

Sampson: Take care, Ticon

He watches as she walks away, turning her head as she yells out of sudden furious anger.

Ticonderoga: Jones, Burke!! Get back to work!! Those buildings aren't gonna reconstruct themselves, you idiots!!!

They could hear Jones in the distance speaking out of fear of Ticon.

Jones: AAH Sorry Ms. Ticonderoga!!

Eugen: So are they all your family?

Sampson: Ticon, Burke, and Jones are my only siblings here with me, I've got many others back home. Ford and I have been buddies since we first met each other when he was stationed at our base, but we treat each other like brothers...Heh, they can be an annoying bunch...

Sam then smiles and says...

Sampson: But I don't know what I'd do without 'em!

Hipper: Seems like a cool sibling relationship

Sampson sets down his cup of coffee and claps his hands together.

Sampson: Alright, y'all ready to head to the port?

Eugen tilts her head as she smirks at Sampson.

Eugen: It will be a splendid time

Hipper jumps up from her chair, seeming excited for something.
