"I- You mind repeating that for me darling?" The now Confused man asked in a wavering tone

"Yes do please repeat, Empress." Enterprise was sounding... protective... over the sudden realization.

Empress chuckled a bit, before walking closer to the bewildered dragon and cupping his face, planting a passionate kiss

"Does that answer your question?" She said while staring into his eyes.

Kaiser, for no fault of his own, had stopped functioning. You could see steam pouring out his head soon Enterprise spoke up

"Uh... Empress... you might have broken him... I would never guess he'd be the kind to get flustered..." Enterprise walked to Kaiser and tried to shake him only to be met with a mumbling man

"I- I might have gone a bit overboard.. I apologize Enterprise."

"It is fine, I guess he hasn't had a partner for a while so this is a reaction that's not unexpected, I may have an idea how to wake him." Enterprise begins to walk towards him before shaking him and yelling

"Father! Your going to miss Empresses birthday!"

Kaiser.exe is rebooting please wait.... reboot complete

"WAIT WHAT? HOLD UP KIDDO I MISSED A BIRTHDAY?!" He asked confusedly before noticing Empress laugh and Enterprise get flustered.

"Really Dear? You didn't care she called you Father but latched onto the fact you could have missed my birthday?"

He looked at her, Enterprise called him.. Father..? He turned to the Ship in question

"Ya know kiddo if you see me that way I don't mind. Back where I come from most everyone sees me as a father figure in some capacity. So in basics I have a lot of kiddos. And Empress, one) sorry for my short circuit moment it's been.. well a couple thousand years since I've had someone like that and two) I reciprocate completely."

Enterprise looks stunned

"Exactly how many kids..?" She asked inquisitively

"Uhh let's see... lower end of 200 operators? They are all adults by Terra Standards but to me their kids cause my age." He chuckled, remembering the few times Blaze got slammed...

*Timeskip 40 Minutes*

Everyone reached base, we filled in the Girls escorting us what happened and that no I did not go "Skynet", I am going to punch whoever said that to them, on the base.

Soon we see Azur Port come into view, the British ships go to their respective ports and I slow down to allow enterprise on the radio to give us room. I go to my quarters and change out of my bandages and clothes and get into something more... stylish... so I head to my closest looking through it and trying to find a good fit soon I lay my eyes on this beauty of an outfit

I attach my .500 revolver to my left and my Light Shining in Darkness to my right, and hang my halberd on my back and wait in my bridge sitting in my captain seat.

I hear my radio crackle to life

"Kaiser come in." It's enterprise "Kaiser here, I hear ya loud and clear kiddo." I hear a brief moment of static

"Ok I talked with the port, the new commander has been informed on what happened and about empress and is willing to talk... and about how your ship got a retrofit... just be careful please. My sister explained to most of everyone and I guess the British ships did too so don't expect any harsh welcomes but don't be surprised if you get a couples stares." She's worried... yea I would be too! Her former enemy is now sitting next to her savior and being a cuddle bug.

"Roger that. I'll be sitting where I can see the port so signal me when I can jump ashore and greet em, Kaiser out."

The click of the radio signals she understood. I turn to Empress seeing her currently hugging my arm like I'm gonna up and disappear.

"Empress, I got a question." She opens an eye and looks at me "You have a title, do you have a name?" She looks at me fully, seemingly deep in thought.. then answers

"No.. not a true name... why?"

"Why don't I give you one? Your not an enemy. And I have a good idea." I say while moving the bangs from her face, seeing her eyes light up is mesmerizing.

"Hmm if it's from you I won't mind, what's your idea?" She asks as she gets up and proceeds to sit on my lap, either I'm stronger than I realize or she's surprisingly light...

"You might not know but my name means "Emperor" in German. It's what the IronBlood speaks, and since your title is Empress how about... Kaiserin? It translates to Empress. It's beautiful if you ask me, matches your beauty quite well." Saying with a slight tease. Might as well make the most of this

She has a heavy blush and immediately turns away, aha I win for getting me flustered earlier!

"I- I think that name works for me.. Meins Kaiser~" oh shit she speaks German...

(A/N Fuck wrong damn version of the song first go around, no offense to PayDay 2's assault sound track it's just fast for my liking.)
