[END]Iron Bloods Fall and Rise (Azure Lane)

Chapter 8: Victory and Revenge

The Flagships fire the opening salvo,the destroyers push on wards while the Heavy Cruisers distract the enemy buying the destroyers time to strike.
"Zeppelin,dive bombers next after that maintain air superiority" you say to Graf Zeppelin standing close to you.
"Clever idea,i don't expect more from you" Zeppelin replies with a smile.

Someone tugs your arm from behind.It's the Tankship Deutschland.
"Slave,i don' want to go out there.I- *whispering looking down* I am scared...a little bit."
Deutschland,says.
Your Heart aches,looking at her,wondering how to get her motivated.
"Deutschland,i know you are scared.So am i,everybody is scared.You are scared because you care of your and everyone else's future in the port" you say patting her head.
"But i am not even strong...how am i supposed to beat the sirens. *sob*"  She says,tears slowly going down her cheek.
"Its ok to be scared,the strong are sometimes scared of battle.Because they care about they'r loved ones,you care about someone,that's the reason you are scared." you reply.
"I don't care about anyone i don't have any friends either....i am all alo--" you slowly whisper her sentence before you cut her off.
"You are not alone! Believe me,the sirens are just scary because of they'r numbers.Now go out there and send them back where they came from!" you say hoping this gets her back to her normal self.
"You are right,i am not alone.I have the other girls and i have an obedient slave like you." she says lifting her head up.

"Remember when you scared me earlier today,when i wanted to go into the room where you all were and pushed me around,i must admit i had...fun" you say.
"Thank you Slave!" Deutschland jumps up hugging you.
You pat her back,and point towards the battle.
"Go show them that the mighty Deutschland doesn't bow before sirens !" you say,with Graf Zeppelin leaning on to you.
With that Deutschland rushes off,heading towards her ordered position in the battle.

"Well Handled Commander,you impressed me" Zeppelin says,grinning.
"Thank you Graf,it's and honor." you reply.
The Battle rages on,the destroyers return to the port in a haste.
"Sir it's a decoy fleet they'r main fleet is hiding withing it." Z23 remarks.
"What ?! They really are focused on defeating us,rearm and take a break.Next attack in 10 mins."
The destroyers nod and move towards the hangars,everyone else returns aswell.

"Sir,they are falling back.Should we chase them ?" Eugen says.
"They must've realized the destroyers have revealed they'r plan.Quick reactions,i'll give them that." you say,thinking of your next move.
"Zeppelin,i want recon flights around the port every 2 hours." you say Zeppelin nods.
"Everyone rearms and take a break.Z23 on me" you say turning around.

"If they turned against us then the Sakura Empire has been betrayed aswell." you mumble,Z23 picking up on it.
"Sir,will you contact the Sakura's ?" Z23 asks,you nod.
"Yes but after i get a damage and supply report."

You go into your office,seating in your chair Bismarck comes in.
"Commander,can i talk to you ?" Bismarck says,leaning onto your desk.
"Sure Bismarck,what's wrong ?" you reply with worry on your face.
"Commander,we need for ships for battle,we might've fought and won the first wave of sirens.But the next will get much more difficult." Bismarck replies.
You put your head down in agreement,taking your hat off and standing up with a sight.

"You are right,i have a few ideas.How about we get the special girls to the port ?" you say.
"Wait,you don't mean...Roon and Friedrich,Odin ?" Bismarck says with worry on her face.
"Exactly,with them we can even take over the world" you reply.

"But before we do that,i have some problems i need to solve." you say looking at the floor.
"What do you mean Commander ?" Bismarck asks.
"Oh you know...an old friend,a weird friend.I need to give him the receipt to what he took and never paid." you say a evil grin forming on your face.

"Inform Z23 that i need Deutschland,Eugen and Admiral Hipper's presence." you tell Bismarck to do.
"As you wish Sir." Bismarck nods and leave.
"Thanks a lot Bismarck." you tell her,she grins in response.

After while,Z23 and the girls you requested show up.
"Welcome,i thought we celebrate our victory with some sweet revenge." you say grinning.
"Why do you waste my time Slave,are you interested in how i look when i'm angry ?" Deutschland replies.
Eugen and Hipper give Deutschland a elbow to the ribs.
"What do you require from us Commander ?" Eugen says with a playful grin.
"Don't give him ideas sister,we know he's a perv" Hipper replies to her sister.

"Now then,to satisfy your curiosity.I called you here to do one thing,completely destroy the previous commanders life,for what he's done to you all." you reply standing with arms crossed.
"But Sir,you don't even know where he lives,nor what he does now." Hipper replies,not knowing a few things about you.

"I used some Academy Contacts including Military Police contacts to get access and info about him.It was very easy..." you say.
"But why us Sir,there are better suited ships then us." Hipper replies,looking scared.
"I chose you because i know you three better then i know others.Now,ready ?" you say.
The Girls nod and you proceed to the parking lot.

The four of you jump into a jeep and drive towards the previous Commander's house.
On the way there you walk the Girls through your plan.
"I will do the talking and you will just watch,how everything he loves crumbles" you say focused on the road.
"Commander,why do you do this ? We did nothing to get you to do this."Admiral Hipper asks.
"Now that is where you're wrong,when i came to the port i didn't know if you would accept me" you say proudly.
"But you did,you accepted me when i got back stabbed by the ones that i thought cared about me." you continue.
"That sole fact in my book,is what made me want to eredicate this filth." you finish.

Eugen,who sits behind you puts her arms around your neck holding you tight.
"A brave soul like you deserves a treat,no wonder Graf Zeppeling thinks you are the one."Eugen says playfully.You smile and nod in approval.
"Slave,i agree with Eugen,you are quite brave doing this.I will think of a fitting reward for you" Deutschlands adds.
She is not the one which says any compliments,but this time it is very suprising to you.

You stop the car at a Coffee Shop,you signal the girls to get out of the car.
"Slave,this is not a house,you idiot! This is a coffee shop" Deutschland says surprised.
"I know,i will meet some people here.I know them since Academy,they are on our side." you add confident.

You walk into the shop and after a few minutes walk out with 4 men dressed all in black.They seem to be part of the Local Military Police.
"Ladies,we sincerely apologize from the bottom of our heart that we let such a humiliation to our name sip through.Please tell the others the same.We beg you." the first men in black says,he is the sergeant of the squad that you requested.
The are amazed at your contacts,they almost look like you.
"Commander are you part of they'r squad ?" Hipper asks.
"You seem to fit in,dar-ling" Eugen remarks.

"No,my job is to get our nation back together.But first we need to get rid of the unfitting and unworthy." you say walking up to Eugen,which is breathing heavy.
"What will you do Com-man-der ?" Eugen says.
Placing a hand on Eugen's cheek she immediatly blushes.

"Nobody will ever touch or hurt you again,if they do.I will be they'r nightmare." you say slowly stroking Eugen's cheek,still blushing.
"You are such a good boy,you really deserve a reward." she say's.
"You can choose your reward from me--" she speaks in playfull tone.
"I will-- but first i need to take care of something" you say.

Signaling the men and the girls to follow you,you walk to the house of the man who's life will be destroyed.
