Azur Lane: A Royal Pain

Bringing In The Big Guns

"What the heck?! What are Sirens doing here?!" Jack shouts as he spots at least ten hostiles. "It looks like a reconnaissance fleet though..."

"Looks like they haven't forgiven you for humiliating them the last time." Georgie replies.

"Don't I do that all the time?" Jack asks, making the girls laugh. "But still, this fleet finding our dock means that there's probably a much larger force just beyond. If you six can sink this fleet, maybe we can catch the main fleet by surprise."

"We'll see what we can do." Bismarck says as the girls bring out their guns. "Could we actually hit them from here?"

"I don't think so." Jack replies. "Unless you want to try attracting their attention."

"Let's just jump in and ambush them, they can't possibly have that much firepower." Wales says as the girls jump in the water and coast along the surface before they fire off a barrage of shells, startling the Siren reconnaissance fleet before they fire back. Just as Wales predicted, the fleet is lacking in firepower and the six girls easily sink all the ships before returning to the docks.

"Well, that was easier than I thought." Hood chuckles as she looks out to see no signs of the main Siren battlefront.

"That was almost TOO easy though. Who knows what this main fleet is packing?" Jack says. "I'll mobilize our whole fleet to engage." That last sentence rings in the girls' heads before they realize what that means.

"Wait... You say that, and that means-" Georgie gets cut off.

"I am a man of war, and I will fight until my dying breath." Jack says, mimicking what he had said after he was discharged from the medical wards.

"You're insane!" Zed shouts.

"I'm not insane." Jack replies. "I'm just more stubborn than the typical commander. It'll take a while before the big guns arrive though."

"Some things just never change..." Georgie says to the others. "Well you heard the commander, let's rough them up." She quickly adds as the girls take off once again, intent on finding this main fleet while Jack mobilizes the rest of the navy. A few minutes after the girls begin searching Wales manages to spot the main fleet just off in the distance, but the sheer number blows them all away.

"You were right about the Sirens being mad about getting trounced by Jack." Hood begins. "But I didn't think they were THAT sore about it!"

"There's probably no less than fifty of those monsters and god knows how many of those little buggers making up that fleet!" Bismarck says in disbelief. "No wonder Jack intended to mobilize the whole Royal Navy!"

"But do we really want to launch an all out assault on a fleet that size? On another note did they actually notice us?" Zed asks, but as soon as she finishes, many Siren cannons get pointed at the six shipgirls.

"I think that answers both of your questions..." Eugen replies. "Take evasive maneuvers!" She shouts as the Siren fleet launches a giant salvo of shells where the six girls once stood before they begin attacking!

"Look out!" Wales shouts as she and Georgie dodge a shell that explodes as soon as it hits the water! "They really want us dead don't they?!"

"I've never seen anything like it!" Georgie shouts as she and Wales aim their shots towards a Siren battleship, sinking it in a matter of seconds while Zed and Eugen deal with a Siren destroyer.

"Take THIS!" Eugen and Zed shout as they plug the destroyer full of holes, but then they look at how much of the fleet is left. "There's too many of them!" They shout as the six shipgirls regroup.

"There's no way we're going to be able to sink all of them like this!" Hood says.

"FIRE ALL CANNONS!" A familiar voice shouts out.
