Ladon's POV
_______________

after leaving the meeting room,I walked along the halls of HQ as I made my way towards the research department,where the scientists and researchers were most likely slaving away at their own scientific work,it was nothing special to Me though,it was just a big room filled with people in white coats,nothing to spectacular

I never really liked the scientist in the lab either,they were all either geniuses capable of creating weapons of mass destructions and tools to improve life or horny idiots who could do the same,the only in between or compromise was the Lead Scientist of the department

she was one of the few female scientist in Azur Lane,that was assigned to work on the research,development and care of the humanoid ships,she was also,the scientist assigned to handle my care and development as both a ship and a person,she was the only person in the research facility I could relatively tolerate

she was the brightest mind in the building,capable of creating a super gaming computer from scraps while remaining somewhat normal as a person,I could distinctly remember 3 of the mle scientist try to ask her out on a date,only to get kicked in the balls,rejected and then asked to go back to work

I walked through the building,passing by numerous personnel,that I both recognized and did not recognize as they all both stared at Me,confused and curious and also scared and afraid as I walked past them to reach the research department

it was a pretty short and silent walk as I came near to the research departments door to see 3 female scientists enter the room before them as the door shut closed the moment they went in,I walked up to the door and looked at it for a second as a few good and bad memories flashed through my mind for a second before vanishing,after the memories in my head passed,I looked down,to the side of the door as I see a green scanner like pad on the side

I placed my hand on the scanner as the green scanner,scanned my hand with a laser,verifying the owner of the palm,after a second,the pad verified my ownership and blinked once,before an A.I like voice spoke

A.I:voice recognition required 

Ladon:USS Ladon of Eagle Union,The White Calamity

A.I:voice recognition,confirmed,welcome to the research department,Ladon

the scanner blinked again as the door opened up and slid to the side,letting Me in as I enter the room to see the many scientists inside,working on their own little projects and work,the entire room was split into their own little sections with tables with a bunch of scientific stuff as the scientist worked in pairs and groups

experiments were happening everywhere as a mini explosions occurred in one of the sections on the far right,on the other hand,there were some scientists either taking a break or lazing around in a resting or lounge corner as one of them was fast asleep on a couch while 2 were playing darts 

I walked into the room and took a few steps inside while looking at all the craziness happening around Me before I heard a voice,shout in my general direction,catching the attention of the other scientists in the room as I looked over to see a scientist,pointing at Me

Scientist1:Hey!!!,this is a restricted area is incredibly dangerous,your not supposed to be here-

Ladon:...

Scientist1:leave Immediately,you can't be here

Ladon:...

Scientist1:security,get him out of here 

2 of the 4 security guards,that were positioned in the corners of the room came up to Me as one of them calmly asked Me to leave as he placed his hand on my shoulder,as soon as he did,I removed my right hand from my pocket and punched him in the chest,knocking him back and onto his ass as I quickly put my hand back into my pocket

I did it so fast,that they only saw the guys fall onto the floor and didn't see Me move as the other security guard pulled out his gun,only for the front of the barrel to fall onto the floor as soon as he does 

the scientist just stared at the phenomenon before them from their little enclosed and divided sections as I blankly stared back at them,both security guards just stood there afraid of Me while the other 2 reached for their guns,they quickly dropped the idea though as I looked at them from across the room with a very large intent of severing their heads from their bodies

after establishing,that they have no way of killing Me,I walked farther into the room as I walked towards the Lead Scientist's work area,before I could reach her section though,the door to her area,went flying open with a loud bang and thud as the door with the wall with great force,making some of the Scientist,jump in surprise,from the door,a woman came bursting out with a pissed of expression,she had long black hair and purple eyes with glasses perched on her nose,she was wearing a black shirt with a green tie,a white belt and a semi long purple skirt with green edging with a long white lab coat above it all

???1:ALL RIGHT,!!!WHAT THE HELL EXPLODED THIS TIME!!,I TOLD YOU ALL TO KEEP IT DOW-

as she scanned the room and glared at her fellow scientists,her eyes fell on Me as she stared at Me with surprise while I stared back with an unamused look on my face,there was a large silence between us as we both looked at each other,until the head of another girls popped out from the door,she had long black hair like the first woman and red eyes,her stature was a bit shorter than the first's as she wore a red one piece while wearing a standard labcoat over it as her arms didn't even pass the sleeves 

???2:Ma'am,did you find out what exploded?

???1:Lily,get my gun,in the drawer

Lily:heh,w-what,wh-why?

???1:I SAID,GET MY GUN LILY!!,.....NOW!!

Lily:ahh,y-yes Ma'am

the small girl,now named Lily,quickly headed back inside the room to fetch the item requested of her as she came back as fast as she left,she handed the gun to the taller female scientist in front of her as the woman takes it and cocks the gun

she then aimed at Me and quickly unloaded the clip inside as I dodged the incoming shots,the pistols she was holding was a standard Desert Eagle,so she only 7 shots in it as I dodged 6 of them,then swiped my hand in front of Me in the blink of an eye,catching the 7th bullet in my hand 

I showed the woman the bullet in my hand before I tossed it into the air and flicked it with my middle finger,making it fly like a bullet again as I hit the center of the dart board in the lounge corner,making the board fall and startling the 3 scientists inside as the woman lowered her gun and looked at Me

???1:hmph,at least now,I know your not some fake copy,why are you here and how are you here

Ladon:long story but the old man said,I had an upgrade,pending

???1:tch,took you long enough to come get it

Lily:uhm,Ms.Emma,do you know this ma-

Emma:Lily,be quite for a moment,the adults are talking 

Lily:I AM 37 AND OLDER THAN YOU!!!,STOP TREATING ME LIKE A-

Ladon:Miss,please be quiet,adults are trying to talk

Lily:I AM 37!!!!!

Ladon:and I am technically 20 and capable of blowing up an entire city,so I suggest you remain out of this conversation

Lily quickly turned pale white as I stared at her with a menacing gaze,that would make the world leaders cower in fear at the sight as the smaller girl dashed and hid behind her taller superior,named Emma,that taller woman just stared at Me before motioning Me to follow as she walked back inside her section with Lily,following close behind

I followed them into the room,leaving the other scientists in their baffled states as I closed the door behind Me after entering the room,just like the main room,it was nothing special,the room was only larger had more equipment and tech inside as Emma walked over to a patients chair at the center of the room and motioned Me to come closer

I did so and walked towards her as she motioned Me to get on and lay down,I followed her instructions and layed down on the chair as she then walked up to a computer and started to control a machine above Me,it was some kind of hybrid machine,that was a mix of different kinds of other machines,that were just combined together as a scanner lowered down and booted up before initiating the scan and slowly moving the sensor across my body

Emma:so,your alive,or are you

Ladon:I'm alive

Emma:alright,explain how

Ladon:sent my Wisdom Cube to my Sister after I died,2 year timeskip,she found the place were I died at and revived me with the same Cube

Lily:hold on,Wisdom Cube?,like the ones used for making the Shipgirls?

Ladon:yes,that Wisdom Cube

Lily:but-,....your a male

Ladon:and?-,...your point

Lily:h-how do you have a Wisdom Cube,your a male,there has never been a male with a Wisdom Cube

Ladon:well,first time for everything,I guess

Lily:that-,.....what-,..huh?,Ms.Emma,who is this guy

Ladon:I'm nobody,just a myth of the sea

Lily:myth of the sea?,what?,your making no sense

Emma:just stop asking,Lily,he's not going to tell you

Ladon:yah,listen to her,she knows what she's talking about

Lily:h-huh?,are you 2-,...some kind of couple or something,I am really confused right now

Emma:far from it

Ladon:so,what happened to Bruce,did he blow his arm off in an experiment and had to be replaced

Emma:no,I caught him trying to steal the data of the test and experiments I ran on you in the past,so I had him fired and replaced

Ladon:hmph,not like he would be able to use anyway

the scanner above beeped and stopped projecting it's laser scanner as it retracted back up to its original position,Emma went back up to the computer and looked at a bunch of data,that the scanner took on Me,it showed my vitals,my energy,my health in general and my Wisdom Cubes integrity 

she was looking at it intently as she scanned through all of the data while Lily went up to the screen and looked at the data as well,I noticed something catch her interest as she looked up to the top left of the screen,I looked over to where she was looking as I saw my name on the top left side of the screen

Lily:Ladon?-,......Ladon?-,.......WAIT!!!,USS Ladon,the Super Destroyer from Eagle Union!?!?!?!?!,HE'S REAL!?!?!?!?!

Ladon:yah

Emma:yes,he's real and you soon will not be if you do not tone down your voice,it's giving Me a headache

Lily:you're actually the real deal

Ladon:I'm as real as it gets

Lily:so are the rumours about you,true as well

Ladon:depends on the rumours

Lily:did you really take down a Siren base,on your own,is your Sister,Laffey,can you actually go 250 knots at sea,are you the White Calamity,like everyone says you are,did you steal something from the president

Ladon:everything except the last part is true,I've only met the president once,no reason to steal from him either

I was going to say more but Emma caught both of our attention as the holographic screen she was looking at,disappears into thin air before she turned to look at Me 

Emma:from what I've seen,your condition is fine,everything seems to be optimal,so you should be able to get your upgraded 

Ladon:...

Emma:follow Me

I stood up from the chair and landed on the floor as Emma pressed a hidden button in the wall,making the floor open up to reveal a secret staircase underneath the floor,Emma was first to go down with ME in tow and Lily last as we all walked down the stairs,it was a relatively short walk down with silence filling the area while walked as we then made it into another familiar room

we were now in a large drydock,with 4 available spaces,each big enough to hold 2 and a half Yamato's in them,cranes and building machinery,used to make ships were also near each dock,ready for use at a moments notice along with with crates filled with repair,rearm and refuelling supplies,ready to go for any ship,that need them

as we walked into the large room,that was devoid of people inside,Lily scanned the room in awe and wonder asshe took in every sight,that the room had to offer,while we walked,Emma pointed to the open spaces as I understood,her wants and summoned my ship into one of the open spaces as we continued to walk

Lily:where are we,I've never seen this place before

Ladon:we're underneath the main building of HQ,this is the HQ's prized possession,the Wonder Docks

Emma:this is where,the experimental or super ships are created,enhaced,retrofitted or even remade,this is a place of pure creational miracles

Lily:I can see,why the names fits then,but why is there no one here

Emma:this place has no need for human interaction,ever since the Super Ship Project was shut down,there had been no need to use this place and even if the project wasn't shutdown,all the machinery here is capable of building ships at faster speeds,than the docks on the surface

Lily:woah,I didn't know a place like this could even exist

Ladon:of course,you didn't,if you haven't been paying attention,this place was shut down with all of it's projects,I was the last thing to come from this place 

Lily:woah

Emma brought us to a terminal near the railings of the docks as she dusted off any dust on the screen as the terminal booted up and activated,she then started to control the terminal as some of the machines at the dock space,where my ship was,started to move 

3 claw like cranes with glowing centers started to move as Emma moved them into a position,that looked like,they were going to pick up my ship,instead of doing,that though,the 3 claws opened their grip to show the glowing light at their centers as the light,started to project onto my ship

Emma then turned to Me after the terminal she worked on,projected a Wisdom cube onto her hand as the Cube materialized,she held it out to Me as I looked at the Cube in her hand before looking at her with my still unamused look on my face 

Emma:well?,what are you waiting for,it has the upgrade loaded into it already

Ladon:...

Emma:don't trust Me??

Ladon:what do you think

Emma:do you think I have any motives to take you down

Ladon:the Council

Emma:...........................do you think,I would follow their stupid orders if it was to bring down my greatest creation-

Ladon:...

Emma:I didn't spend an entire year with 200 overnights to create yo,to just kill you here and now

Ladon:...

I scoffed as I took the cube from her hand and absorbed it into Me,I glowed brightly for a few seconds before the light died down until it was completely gone,with the upgrade in Me,I quickly felt the power I was given flow through Me as I let it flow through until it became natural to Me,which didn't take Me long

Emma:I assume,it feels natural to you already?

Ladon:...

Emma:good,it'll take a few minutes for the power to fully set into your body,so we'll have to wait until it does,until then,stay here and don't do anything

Ladon:hmph,fine by Me

Emma:alright,Lily,with Me,we still have to finish our experiment

Lily:yes Ma'am

the 2 quickly left as they walked back to their lab section to finish,whatever experiment it was they were doing,leaving Me alone in the Wonder Docks as I sat on the railings and looked at my ship,it had grown in size a little and seemed a lot tougher now,add on the fact,that I feel much lighter now,I sat on the rail and rested my head on my hand,that was on my leg as I patiently waited for my new powers to set in with my body

Meanwhile,Back in the Meeting Room

__________________

Enterprise's POV
__________________

the room was filled silence as we all sat in our own seats without a word after the 3rd to 1st seat council members  told the story about what happened here at HQ,it was so quiet,that you could probably hear a leave fall onto the floor as everyone remained in silence,the other shipgirls had nothing to say in the matter as they kept their mouth shuts from uttering a word,the 6th and 7th seat Council Members were speechless and surprised from the story as they remained in their seats,baffled by the story,the 4th and 5th seats could not utter a word as they remained vigilant and afraid,the 3rd,2nd and 1st seats kept calm with an unfazed feeling with them while I attempted to hold my myself back with everything I had,as to not pull out my bow and shoot the 4th and 5th seat in the head and be done with the past,for Ladon's sake

I could tell,that the other shipgirls with Me,knew that I was holding back from murdering Carl and EJ as my hair covered a bit of my eyes,casting a shadow over them as I felt my anger seethed while the 2 Council Members feared for their lives,like they should for the rest of their lives 

if it were not for the fact,that the others would no doubt try to stop Me and most likely succeed in doing so and the fact,that the council would consider Me a threat,I would end them right here and right now as I eyed them with a deathly stare while they cowered in their chairs,trying to aadvert their gazes away from Me

John:so,now that you all know,what happened,your thoughts

Bismarck:I think we all agree,that Enterprise has already made her decision

Enterprise:...............

Q.E:yes,clearly she has this handled,we do not have to interfere with it

Harry:true as that might be andas much as we agree with herplan,murder is still illegal-

Kenneth:and laws are still applied to you Shipgirls

John:though,"accidents" do tend to happen in the line of work of the military,they are quite common

Nagato:agreed,people do tend to make a few mistakes,here and there

Enterprise:it would surely be ashame if a Council Member died due to unforeseen circumstances,a great shame

we all turned our attention to the 4th and 5th seat Council Members,who were now terrified,out of their skins as I my eyes glowed gold while I summoned my bow into my hand,scaring the 2 council Members even more as they shook in their boots as they had no where to run to get away from my anger and fury 

Enterprise:are we all in agreement,that whatever happen in this room next,stays between all of us and one extra 

John:haha,agreed

Harry:agreed

Kenneth:I've been waiting 2 years for this,agreed

Everyone:agreed

EJ:waits,it's i-illegal to kill,y-you'll be arrested!!

John:yeah,that is true,but then again,with a good lawyer,she'llbe out in a week or so,but it won'tcome to that,cause she won't be going to jail,no one will find you body,anyway

Carl:p-people will ask,what happened to us,the personnel,the staff,the soldiers,they'll!!!-

Harry:everyone on this base,nearby bases,everyone on every base,that belongs to Azur Lane,knows what is happening in this room right now

Kenneth:we've informed everyone beforehand,no one will object since everyone agreed to this in the first place,and your loyalist soldiersand personnel have agreed to this as well

EJ:b-but you can't replace us,no one has!!-

John:if your talking about that,we've found good replacements,2 months ago,their finishing with their training as we speak and have even better scores,than both of you

Harry:you both get what,you fucking deserve

Kenneth:you both had this coming for a long time

Carl:w-wait!!!,what about you 2,Jerome,Eliza,surely-

Jerome & Eliza:we agree

Jerome:you are beyond redemption,take the consequences of your actions like a honorable person

Eliza:face the retribution of the crimes you've commited and die

Enterprise:your word,1st Seat

John:as the 1st Seat Member of the Council of Azur Lane,I hereby give Enterprise of Eagle Union,full authorizationto terminate the 4th and 5th Seat Members of the Council

Enterprise:gladly

I lifted mybow and quickly pulled back the string as 2 energy arrows formed at my fingers as energy charged in them while I aimed at EJ and Carl,the 2 arrows were filled with my energy and my rage as they glowed brightly between my fingers while Carl and EJ just loooked in absolute horror

Carl & EJ:wait NO!!!-

before they could lengthen ther last words,I fired both arrows into their heads as the force through them off their feet before their cold and now lifeless bodies fell onto the floor while the 2arrows I shot,dissipated into the air as energy

Short Timeskip brought to you by,Enterprise,comforting a crying Ladon 

shortly after I killed the 2 Council Members,a team of soldiers entered the room and quickly handled the bodies as they cleaned up the blood on the floor and took away the bdoies in 2 body bags before quickly leaving as fast as they had arrived

my eyes returned to their normal purple color and stopped glowing as I unsummoned my bow and sat back down at my seat,the atmospherein the room became a lot loghter afterwards as we all breathed a sigh of relief after getting rid of the source of Azur Lane's strongest fighters,grief and trouble 

John:well then,now that Ladon's source of trouble uis gone,let us move on to the next topic

Q.E:go ahead,waht else must we discuss

Harry:well,since the main problem is done,we can move on to more,battle like topics

Richelieu:please elaborate

Kenneth:since,until only now,we had no idea,who was giving orders to you girls,we could not properly coordinate or help any of the factions,but since we now,know who are in charge,we would like to get some inside info about all of your plans,moving forward

Nagato:unfortunatey,only Ladon knows so far as he was the ne to bring up a new plan for a counter attack against the Sirens 

John:what do you all know about this plan

Soyuz:not much,Comrade Ladon has not givne details in regards to the attack

Jean:we were supposed to be discussing about it today but plans chaged in the middle of the night

Harry:so,we still know nothing about his next move

Vittorio:unfortunately not 

Enterprise:I'm sure he would be willing to share it,once he knows,that the sourceof his troubles and problems are gone

John:that would be ideal,if it comes down,that you all leave and we are still left in the dark about the plan,please do relay to us about the details of this plan,so we may be able to coordinate our forces effectively with yours

Q.E:we'll keep it in mind,it would be ideal to have as much support when fighting the Sirens

Harry:excellent then,that would be all the topics we wanted to talk to you all about

Kenneth:that being said,it is almost the middle of the day and I assume,none of you pre-ate lunch before leaving

Bismarck:no,none of us did so

John:excellent then,we invite you stay with us for lunch,the Council has hired 10 of the best 5 star chefs in the city for the day to make the best cuisine they can for lunch,a full course meal for all

Q.E:we would be happy to accept your offer,I myself am not one to turn down the offer of fine cuisine

Kenneth:great,please follow us

Nagato:wait,what about Ladon?

John:I sent him to acquire his pending upgrade,the process will take sometime,I'll just have Emma send him to us,once the process is done

Enterprise:I see,we understand 

John:great,then if you all could follow-

before John could finish,what he was saying,he base shook with great force as we all stumbled and tried to keep our balance,the shaking went on for a few minutes before coming to a stop as we looked around the room to now see cracks along the walls  and floor while the once nice and tidy room was now a large mess

suddenly,a soldier came bursting through the meeting room doors as he panted while looking like he was in a hurry,some parts of his clothes were tattered,signafying,that damage was taken as the base shook again

Soldier:Sir!!!,the base is under attack!!!!

John:WHAT!!!!

Soldier:Sirens are shelling us from out front door!!!!!

Jean:how the hell did the Sirens get here so suddenly

Q.E:they must have used their portals,it's the only explanations

Kenneth:the base isn't prepared to defend a full scale attack like this,mostthe shipshereare in repairs orbeing refitted

Bismarck:it doesn't mtter,we have to do what we can 

Harry:sound the alarm,let eveyrone know,what's happening,you girls should get to the frontlines as soon as possible,we'll try to get some help if things go south

Everyone:yes Sir

we all theleft the room in ahurry as we all rushed towards the entrance of the building,we quickly made it outside to see the large fleet of Sirens,that we're bombarding the base,they were in great numbers as usual but they looked a bit diffrent and seemed a bit more powerful as they usual red lining was now light blue as small amounts of electricity sparked off the hulls of the production models

some aircraft  from the base had already taken to the skies in attempt to repel the Siren invaders,only tobe met by Siren interceptors,leading into a large,mass scale dog fight above the base

we all summoned our riggings and hopped onto the water as we began to fire back and launch aircraft to help out in the defense,we were met with very heavy resistance as the production models  continued to attack,relentlessly with more firepower and airpower,than usual,I wasn't wrong when I thoguht,tht theylooked stronger as their cannons were hitting much harder,their planes were much faster and they were taking a lot more shots to kill

at this rate,we might actually get overwhelmed,Ladon was no where to be seen as he was getting some mind of upgrade from HQ and they said,that it could take sometime to finish,meaning we couldn't rely on Ladon's support for the time being due to the circumstance,which was terrible for us

from out of nowhere however,10 strange looking unknown aircraft,flew above us as they started to fire a rapidly shooting gun,that was mounted to the strange aircraft,the aircraft had a black and white color scheme with the Eagle Union logo on the back end,it had  a large rapid firing gun,mounted at the front and 2 boxes on the side,holding 6 missiles inside each

AN:change the color scheme to black with white replacing the orange lining and also replacethe GDI eagle symbol with the Eagle Union logo

it gun downed the Siren jets in seconds,dropping them all out fo the sky in an instant before stopping to hover in the air while facing the Siren fleet,the Sirens quickly aimed their AA weaponry and opened fire on the unknown aircraft with a hailstorm of projectile,which proved ineffective against the aircraft as they stood their unfazed while being protected by some kind of shield,that deflected the incoming shots 

???:they had the guts to send a fleet like this to attack HQ?,their stupider than what they try to act like

we all turned around to look at the source of a familiar unamused voice as we all turned around to see Ladon,walking towards us with his hand,tucked away in his jacket's pocket as he walked towards us,then past us while he made his way towards the Siren fleet

Enterprise:Ladon?!!

Laffey:Brother

Bismarck:where have you been

Ladon:unless you hit your head on something and forgot,John sent Me to get an upgrade and now I've got it,and I've been itching to let out a little steam

he summonedhis sword as the sheath appeared on the back of his waist as he quickly drew his sword and disappeared as a white blur or flash,he then quickly reappeared a few stepsbackwards,from where he was as he sheathed his sword and made it disappear while all the Sirens behind him exploded into a large combined smoke clourd as they all sank into the bottom of the sea

we all looked at Ladon in astonishment as a shadow remained casted over his face,covering his eyes as he tucked his hadn away back intohis pocketswhilewalking away,the strange aircraft,then glowed before disappearing as well, as we all followed Ladon,back onto land

when we got back onto land,we were quickly greeted by the Council Members as they all ran up to us with a slight hint of relief in their eyes as they looked out to sea to see the Sirens,sinking into the depths

John:well done,all of you,you all just saved the base

Nagato:we cannot really take credit,it was mostly Ladon who destroyed the Sirens

Harry:as expected from the White Calamity,a true force to be reckoned with

Jean:hold on,THE White Calamity,the Calamity,that was said to go,toe totoe with 200 Sirens,solo-

Soyuz:the same one,that stayed out at sea for 2whole years with no refuel or rearming-

Bismarck:the same one,that was said to have entered the Bermuda triangle,that was supposedly littered with Siren bases

Kenneth:yes,that White Calamity,but he doesn'tlike going by that name though

Ladon:...

John:so,Ladon,I assume,you've already grown,acustomed to the upgrade

Ladon:yeah,it's fine

Bismarck:so those aircraft awhile ago,they were-

Ladon:yes,their mine,I'll fill you all in later,but wehave to get going

Jerome:why the rush-

Eliza:did something else happen

Ladon:as a matter of fact,there was,I was informed by the base,that this was a simoultaneous attack by the Siren,our base at sea got attacked as well

Richelieu:oh lord,is everyone there ok

Ladon:the attack was repelled but we should head back as soon as possible to see the damaged ourselves,Washington,said that it was pretty bad 

John:then we'll haveto cancel lunch unfortunately,don't let us hold you up,we've dicussed what was needed to be dicussed,return to thebase immediately

Everyone:Yes,Admiral

John:godspeed to you all

we allsummoned our ships back onto the water and jumped aboard as we all sailed back to the base with great speed

Timeskip brought to you by Laffey and Javelin making chocolate

after getting into a rush and sailing back to base,we were now 37 minutes away from the base,everyone except Ladon was on their own ship as he sat at the front of my Carrier with his mood and attitude unchanged,he wasstill looking depressed as he stared out to see,even when the base notifed us,that everything was alright back there

I decided to finally legitimately try to fix him as I walked over to him as he quickly sensed Me approaching and turned his head towards Me,a shaodw was still overcast on his eyes,preventing Me from seeing them as I walked over to him while I strengthened my resolve,so I wouldn't back down if he treid to push Me away

Enterprise:Ladon

Ladon:what is it,Enterprise

Enterprise:I want you to follow Me

Ladon:why?,did something happen

Enterprise:no but I want you to follow Me

Ladon:I'm not going without a-

Enterprise:I'm not taking,no for an answer this time,Ladon,now follow!!!

he didn't respond immediately as he looked at Me with a neutral expression while I looked back at him with my resolve,after a few moments his sighed and stood up from the front of my Carrier and turned to Me,I led him across my deck as I jumped up to the top of my brdige with him in tow as we both landed on the roof,I then sat down on the roof and motioned for ladonto do the same as he sat down next to me while we both lookedat  the ocean in front of us

Ladon:what did you want Me here for,Enterprise

Enterprise:I want my,Ladon back

Ladon:Enterprise,I'm right-

Enterprise:I said,I want MY,Ladon back,my Ladon would never fear a person who would abuse or use their power for their own benefit while harming others,he would face them head on and beat them,you are not the Ladon,that I know

Ladon:.........................trying to forget,what happened isn't easy,Enterprise,especially,when you knwo it may very well  happen-

Enterprise:and when have you ever cared about that,you've fought,Sirens everyday for your entire life,even when you knew it would happen again the next day

Ladon:this is different,this isn't just about Me,this was about my Sisters life,her own-

Enterprise:as long as you live,they can't touch her

Ladon:they've done so before and they could do it again

Enterprise:then you'll stop them again,like how you stopped them before,if there is anything,I know about you,it's that when you have your mind on something,you will see it through to the end,so no matter how many times they try,you will always save Laffey,even if it was infinite amounts of time

Ladon:...

Enterprise:and she's not alone anymore,she had friends that will help protect her,even thoguh your her Brother,your not the only one,who wants to protect her,everyone wantsto protect her,cause everyone is her friend,they'll have their backs,when she's in trouble

Ladon:...

Enterprise:now stop being selfish and leave some of your work to us

I quickly puled Ladon into a tight embrace as I rested my face on the top of his head,all I wanted was to see him smile like he always does,to see him relax like the person he is,not see him break himself down with worry and grief

I felt my shirt get wet a little bit as Ladon,reciproctaed my actions and hugged back,pulling Me into a similarly tight embrace while he rested his head,between my chest,which I happily allowed him to do s I felt,what I believed was his tears,wet my shirt a little more

Ladon:thank you Enterprise,I needed that,I really did but I can't stop worrying,the thought is always there,lingering and they might

Enterprise:John told us everything,Ladon and you don't have to worry about those 2 anymore,we got rid of them,they'll never cause you or Laffey anymore trouble,not now,not ever

Ladon:.....................thank you-,....thank you for everything,there's nothing I can do to repay

Enterprise:I want to see you smile,like you used to,the smile of the Ladon,that I know and love,that's all I ask in return

he pulled away from the hug as he lifted himself up and wiped away his tears,before putting on the biggest smile I've seen on him as pure happiness radiated from his face and aura,he then opened his eyes and looked at Me with the same but smaller smile as I looked at his captivating cimson colored eyes before he cupped my cheek with a soft touch and brought our faces closer together,after a few silent moments,we shared a long passionate kiss before separating to gather someair as he pulled me back into an embrace which I reciprocated as I hugged him back

Ladon:I love you Enterprise,I promise you now,I'll do everything I can to make sure your all safe

Enterprise:and I'll shoulder that burden with you,forever,my Love
