Entering his kingdom's airspace, Saito was very relaxed but somewhat bored at the same time. He had flown through the night and it was about midday. He was about five minutes from his home and family.

"Say Derf, you have a feeling that something is wrong as well?" Saito moved his head to look at his sword and turn back to keep his eyes forwards

"So I wasn't the only one who had that?" Derf replied as Saito began to get paranoid of what was around him, which was a bunch of clouds. Saito knew that the other countries knew he flew in a plane and to add on to that he just finished flying over one of the countries in which the military was controlled by the revolters. He flew through on cloud and his suspensions were still in question as when you fly through a cloud, something is on the other side which wanted to kill you. In this case, there was nothing.

"Behind you!" Derf shouted as Saito jerked the stick the left which sent the plane to that direction. Saito look to his right and saw a bolt of lightning evaporate into energy. He directed his eyes to the left and saw in fact an armada of Dragon Knights and warships behind the boy. Every single one of them had a symbol that was the same the Louise's forces had before.

"How in the hell did they enter our airspace without anyone noticing!?" Saito yelled as about a hundred bolts of lightning and fireballs were shot at the man who dived down from the cloud line to avoid them. Saito looked back and was shocked when he saw the ships were not slowing down. "Why aren't they slowing down, they can't have engines yet, it's too soon." He turned his plane around and got behind one of the ships and saw no type of engines but instead a bunch of mages using some times of magic to make the ship go faster. Saito decided that he had no choice but to fight back and turned his plane's safety trigger off. "Alright jerks, it's one thing to catch up with me, it's another to hit me!" Saito began to gain altitude and descended on the ship he just saw. His guns let loose a combination of incendiary and explosive rounds he personally made. The end result was twenty bullets that caused a ship, which could be considered in his standards a cruiser, to explode and man did he hear it go boom.


Imrahil was busy going over the tactics of every company since he finished his rounds with the weapons yesterday when he heard an explosion from a distance. He slowly walked over to the window to see what was going on. What he was made his heart skip five beats. An armada of warships and Dragon Knights were fighting against the man he swore to protect with his life. He snapped out of his trance and ran over to a switch inside of a glass box and punched through the glass to hit the switch. The result was sirens going off inside of the castle as Imrahil ran over to an intercom and pressed a button to get in on.

"ALL DRAGON KNIGHTS AND WARSHIPS, PREPARE FOR IMMEDIATE RESPONSE TO AIRBORNE INVADERS AT ONCE! BE ADVISED, KING SAITO IS CURRENTLY UNDER FIRE FROM AN ARMADA OF ESTIMATED FIFTY SHIPS AND HUNDREDS OF KNIGHTS. YAMATO CREW, WAIT FOR ME TO ARRIVE, I WILL TAKE PERSONAL CONTROL OF THE SHIP, GO!" Imrahil shouted into the mic and threw it aside and ran out of the room to meet up with the crew of the flagship of their navy.


"What the hell, it jammed now of all times!?" Saito shouted as his bullets stopped firing which meant one jammed. He got an answer which was one douse of electricity skimming his left-wing. "Derf, any ideas!?"

"You're the flyer, aren't you suppose to have a plan B in this situation?" Derf said not knowing what to do as well.

"Come on, work you plane, I need those bullets unjammed today!" He slammed his fist into the control panel which didn't do anything.

"Look out Partner!" Derf shouted as Saito saw a storm of ice shot directly at the cockpit. Saito moved the stick forward which caused the plane to barely miss the spell. However, ten more fireballs were coming his way as he flipped his bird backwards so the top was facing down.

"Do a barrel roll!" Saito said at himself as the plane spun around while still going in the same line direction which made all the spells miss him somehow.

"That wasn't a barrel-"

"I KNOW, NOT NOW!" Saito shouted as his wish was finally granted and his plane gave a panel which said the bullets were ready to fire. "Finally!" Saito said as he turned around and began shooting that the poor souls who were trying and him. He scored three out of four kills as the last rider flew back up into the crowd of enemies. "Alright, what now…" He knew that it was impossible for him to take on the whole freaking force by himself and unless everyone was off today, the navy should have already arrived to help mop up this mess. Suddenly, every single Dragon Knight descended upon Saito who was forced to dive down to try and lose them. Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning and probably an elemental kitchen sink were being shot at the poor leader who was dodging for his very life. He raised his plane up and saw that he was facing what could be considered a heavy cruiser with about twenty mages charging magic at his plane. He looked down and to his back and saw there was nowhere for him to run. "On no…" Saito muttered knowing he was in serious trouble. Every single mage unleashed their strongest spell onto the man while the dragons shot fireballs at the man's plane. The last thing Saito saw was his hand being raised and the newly acquired runes glow along with his older set.


Henrietta was watching the battle the dog fight which involved her husband and her daughter's father. Marie was holding onto her mother who would not let go. She was praying that he would be alright since this seemed like impossible odds for one person to survive.

"Please Founder, protect Saito from getting-" Her voice was silenced as an explosion echoed through the air which caused Henrietta to look up and saw it was at one concentrated position. Fear of what happened entered the mind of the Queen of what could have happened. Tears rolled down her face of what just happened. There was no way anyone could survive something like that.

"No way…" Were the only words of Guiche as he was watching the scene alongside his son who was standing next to him?

"Mom… is Dad…" Marie asked having streams of tears roll down her face. Edouard looked at the girl and his heart was stabbed seeing the girl in such a state. Henrietta remained silent because she did not want to believe it as well. Seconds turn to minutes and minutes turned to hours for the females of the room. "Dad's not dead, he can't be, he is super strong and… and…" Marie buried her face into the dress of her mother who was trying to stay strong but couldn't.

"Look!" Guiche said as everyone looked at the smoke and saw a stream of it going upward. Both women looked up and shocked filled everyone in the room.


"Partner, what did you just do!?" Derf said in complete shock of what just happened. The two shot out of the cloud and were above everything that tried to turn them into ash.

"I don't know Derf, all I know is my hand moved on its own and the new runs is have activated. All I know is the plane doesn't have a scratch. Maybe a shield of some sort?" Saito said still shocked he survived that little stunt. Saito had both runes activated which he did not know was still happening. All he knew was he could see the enemies moving slower so he could maneuver and respond accordingly. Saito then turn the plane completely around and it descended onto the horde of hostiles. Pressing the trigger, instead of his normal bullets coming out, they were somehow enhanced and went after there targets which happen to be the Dragon Knights. He took out twenty of the Knights just by diving down at them as the rest gave chase. The result was fire being shot at them as Saito looked back and saw that the Dragon Knights of his country were finally in the air. His eyes were directed at what appeared to be the flagship of the armada which was preparing to shot Saito out of the sky for good. His eyes widened as a flash of light was about to come his way until what appeared to be multiple small explosions echoed through the air followed by the complete elimination of the ship in front of him. Saito flew on the side of what remained of the ship and turned it around to see what caused the damage. What he saw gave him a smile. "Took your sweat time getting the Yamato out here didn't you Henrietta?" Saito said as his wife was the only one who took command of the ship when he was not around to lead the flagship of his navy

"Queen Henrietta is inside of the castle King Saito, I am in charge of the ship for now." Imrahil came off the speakers which gave the King a smile.

"Even better, nice shot by the way. Do you mind if I land on the deck?"

"Not at all sir, the front deck it clear for your landing." Imrahil responded on the com was Saito gave a sigh of relief. The ship itself resembled one of his home countries proudest ships but with the added twist of this worlds ship design and also a little front desk which allowed the King to take off and land whenever he wanted. Saito landed on the front desk and turned off the fighter and grabbed his sword and pushed the glass back and fell out of the cockpit and onto the right wing as airmen lifted him to his feet as the King regained consciousness.

"Sir, are you ok?"

"Ya, thanks for the lift men." Saito rose to his feet but feel back on his butt when the three front cannons of the Yamato shot and destroyed another ship. "Imrahil sure does want to destroy the rest of that fleet." Saito chuckled jumping back to his feet and began his walk to where the Captain of the ship was.

"Target is two kilometers to the south west, cannon number two ready?"

"Yes Captain, cannon two is ready for firing."

"Fire!" Imrahil shouted as said cannons fired a trio of shouts at the next ship in his sight when was confirmed to be hits.

"Nice shot, I never knew you could command this ship so well." Saito said reaching the bridge.

"Well, when the man who I swore to protect is in trouble, I am full of surprises sir." Imrahil said as the King smiled and pointed at the next target as the crew immediately fired the third cannon and said target did not exist anyone.

"You missed one… they seem to be running away." Saito said as he contemplated giving chase.

"What are your orders sir?"

"Lets them go, they will not be a problem to us anymore, let us return back to the hanger, I am pretty sure Henrietta will want my head after seeing what happened to me just a moment ago." Saito said as Imrahil agreed and the crew turned the flagship of the navy around and returned to harbor.


Author's Notes - Well… that escalated quickly didn't it. Poor Saito his going to get it when he gets back form the little stunt he pulled off. Freaking ships are so slow in games sometimes. I think it was pretty freaking obvious where the name for the ship came from…
