"I always find home in the battlefield, but this is definitely something else." Enterprise chuckles as she, along with Bismarck and company all find themselves in the tavern. Yorktown, Shoukaku and their sisters find themselves staring at a giant full course. This time it resembles a destroyer, but it's just as large as the last full course they ate. "This looks so good..."
"They don't make this all that often but we've had it before and I swear this stuff is the best, especially if you dip it in the oil." Georgie replies as the group begins to chow down. Enterprise and Yorktown are the first to eat away at the giant food effigy with Zuikaku and Shoukaku not too far behind, and Bismarck and company simply chuckle.
"Leave some for us!" Bismarck says as she and the others also begin eating. "At least they made it bigger."
"I mean it's no longer just the six of us, now there's ten people to account for." Georgie replies.
"If it were just you, you probably would have eaten the entire thing." Wales laughs.
"Shut up Wales!" Georgie shouts as they continue to eat. When the group is finally finished eating the group of ten heads outside, and just when they're about to relax, sirens go off.
"This is not a drill! I repeat this is not a drill! Sirens have been located in the Atlantic Ocean! Everyone to battle stations!" A voice blares out.
"Let's go, they've already started to mobilize the navy." Bismarck says as she and the others bring out their weapons and take to the waters to engage the Siren fleet.
"I'm not sure how many are out there, but if the sirens were sounded, it definitely sounds like a lot." Hood says.
"Wait, you're the commander right? How come you're not with the rest of the Royal Navy?" Zuikaku asks.
"They've already issued the order, so they'll move out accordingly." Bismarck replies. "That and the Ironbloods are coming in for support as well."
"Good to know." Yorktown says, but suddenly her eyes go as wide as saucers when she realizes just how many Sirens are out there, and the rest of the girls do the same. "...There's so many..."
"Whoa..." Wales says, struggling to form sentences. There are no less than a hundred battleships and possibly thousands of small ships making up the Siren fleet. "How... How are we even going to do ANYTHING to them?!"
"At least we're too far for them to notice anything... Right?" Enterprise asks. Unfortunately the silver haired aircraft carrier is proved wrong as numerous cannon barrels are pointed at the group of ten. "...I guessed wrong..."
"Get out of the way!" Yorktown shouts as everyone disperses and they just avoid a giant salvo of exploding shells! The girls fight back but due to the sheer number of ships they can barely do anything!
"It's like trying to kill an army of giant ants!" Shoukaku shouts as her planes get shot down by a cloud of anti air gunfire. "I hope they arrive soon!"
"I think we're all hoping for that!" Zuikaku shouts as she dodges another salvo. Hood, Wales, Georgie and Bismarck all let loose a salvo of their own, and it serves to sink some of the ships, but the battle looks bleak as there are too many to destroy. Eventually amongst the gunfire the shipgirls group up and just manage to avoid yet another salvo of shells.
"We'll be sitting ducks out here if we don't think of something fast!" Georgie shouts.
"We have to stand our ground!" Bismarck shouts back. "Let's try and pick off the little guys!"
"But there's so many of them!" Hood says as she blasts one of them. Just as hope starts to fade away though, a voice shouts loud and clear!
"FIRE ALL CANNONS!"
