Enjoy.

After breakfast Fairfield was ready to head out again. Except there was an affectionate tug on her arm by her girlfriend. Belfast pouted as she tugged the arm of Fairfield. "Where exactly are you going?"

"The water."

"Lovey!"

"What? Ain't I gotta work?" Asked Fairfield.

"Not today. Take it as your on holiday."

"If I'm on holiday someone is taking my post and I'm grabbing the wine."

"Let's not be so daft Lovey. Come now."

"Alright fine. But can at least tell me where we're going? The garden? A castle?"

Belfast shook her head. "I'm not taking you off of work. Just switching departments. We are going to find a book and we will review. How does that sound?"

"Alright I guess. Lead the way." She nodded.

"Hey Sister. You rested up?" A blonde walked over the the table.

"Hornet. Good morning." Enterprise hasn't seen her in a while. "What's going on?"

"Actually, could I ask everyone a favor? I've heard from Wales and Queen Elizabeth that Sakura Empire is too close for our comfort. Shall we?"

"Bet your ass." Fairfield got up. "I'm passed due."

"An inevitable I suppose." Sighed Belfast. "Fun while it lasted."

"What's that supposed to mean Toots?"

"I thought you were mellowing out just a little."

"I'm calm and collective, but we have to move. This one's an order."

~~~~~

On a ship there were a few people having a discussion about a plan. The sisters Kaga and Akagi, Shoukaku, Amagi, Prinz Eugen, Z23, and Ayanami.

"Reporting." Z23 was on standby waiting for the order.

"So ready for anything. She is coming with me and Ayanami as requested, jah?" Asked Prinz Eugen.

"Yes. Go right ahead. Take your time." Insisted Akagi.

"Be back soon. Would you lead the way Z23?"

"Jah." She stepped forward and made sure her partner for this afternoon. "Are we ready?"

"I suppose so." Shrugged Ayanami.

"And now we depart. We will see you later after we wrap up business." Prinz Eugen lead followed up and now it was time for the objective.

"Maybe I'll tag along." Smirked Amagi.

Meanwhile Hornet was leading the charge. Enterprise was watching her take point and even though she was fully healed and ready to attack anything in her field of vision, she didn't show it. She remained composed.

Belfast was behind Fairfield and Haven as the group of ships were sailing across trying to find nearby targets. This was battle. They could be anywhere. "There are more coming soon. The Royalty is calling in support and Sheffield and others will arrive at once."

"Good. Less I have to worry about." Nodded Enterprise.

"You think you're taking them yourself?" Asked Hornet.

"If I have to."

"Not if I beat you to it." Smirked Hornet.

"Doubtful."

"Fine. You're on." The two went faster.

Fairfield looked to her right to see Belfast with a devious smirk. "I know better?"

"Do you know Lovey?" This was a test.

"Fair enough." She is watching the cards play in front of her. Almost seemed shaky as she watched it happen. Typically she would spring into action. Not this time around.

"Ah. Hello Gray Ghost." Giggled a voice.

"You're-" Enterprise was ready to blast her with an arrow.

"Prinz Eugen of Iron Blood. Nice to meet you."

"So you're with Sakura Empire." Glared Hornet.

"They are leading the charge. We are just reinforcements. However, you look in top condition Enterprise. It would be nice for a challenge." Smiled Eugen.

"She's mine." Enterprise fired.

Eugen was as quick as she is powerful. Having no problem dodging that arrow. She wanted to stall and play with everyone. It was just her style. Compared to Enterprise who wanted to get it done as fast as possible and keeping moving forward, she wanted to toy and have fun with her enemies. Which is something that was going to bite her. 

"Prepare to suffer!" Z23 was ready to blast her enemies away. This little feisty German was straight to the point.

There was a battlecruiser with a sword in striking distance. With everything going down this is when Fairfield took her mark. "Mine!" She clashed with the enemy. "Got a name Broad?"

"Amagi." She wasn't expecting another one to go hand to hand with her.

"Fairfield." A swing and a clash. "Nice rack."

"Seriously?" Huffed Amagi.

"Not really. Now Belfast over there, hoo, cuddling those dirty pillows is a paradise." Fairfield spun around and swung. Close to her opponent's head. "Not bad. Though I hope you know what you are getting into. There is more than Toots, Enterprise, Hornet, and Sheffey to see."

"Nein!" Z23 was looking at ships coming in. Then looked at her squad team. 

"You know, Royal Navy tends to battle at full force." Smirked Belfast.

"Expecting nothing less." Nodded Eugen. Prinz Eugen looked in the distance to see everyone. Queen Elizabeth, Hood, Warspite, and Sheffield's best friend Edinburgh. Then back to her little squad that she put together of Iron Blood and then her allies of Sakura Empire. "Tis a bit of a problem."

"This isnt over." Amagi was annoyed even at the thought of losing. "Fairfield huh?"

"You got it Toots." She winked at her. "Oh and uh, looks like you should sail that sweet ass on your side of friggin' water."

"Must you be so perverted?" 

"Can't help it. I got a hot waman down in front. What's a matter?"

"Goodbye." She jumped back and started going in the other direction. "This isn't over. Just letting you know."

"Good, I need a real fight." Fairfield watched the retreat as you turn over to Belfast. "You barely broke a sweat. I know what you're capable of too. You know what I mean?"

"Indeed." Her girlfriend bowed. "What's next?"

"Since there's a retreat, how about you and Unicorn join me and Haven for a meal of passion."

"That sounds..." Belfast wasn't sure what context that was.

"Pizza. Sheesh."

"Oh, well we'd love to." She smiled.

"Alright. Haven, I need to make sauce."
