While Ramiel and the gang were roaming around the ocean between worlds, they suddenly got sucked in by a vortex of space. Entering the void. "Forgive me fuhrer, it seems that I was a bit too late in preventing ourselves to be transported." Bismarck was apologetic.
She was still getting used to the new ship, but he waved it off. "It's fine, I think this is a great opportunity for Aqua and Rapunzel to see a new world anyways. Let's just see where this stream goes." Ramiel sat on the captain's seat patiently.
"If you say so fuhrer, then I will make sure to keep us safe." Bismarck saluted and she navigated the area carefully.
"A new world? Really?" Rapunzel's eyes lit up and she bobbed her head left and right in excitement, swinging her legs like a kid. "I don't know about this, the keyblade war was about to start." Aqua frowned and he patted her on the back.
"Don't worry, it won't start unless the 7 light and 13 dark are complete. Donald and Goofy aren't keyblade users. So they'd have to wait for you to start, what a star you are." He laughed and Aqua pouted at him.
They cruised smoothly in the void and just waited for the stream of time and space to bring them to their next destination.

At the other side of the portal that they were about to enter. It was the year 2552, at the Epsilon Eridani system. A massive fleet of starships gathered at a certain planet. Orbital defense platforms were being fired at the invader's fleet, but it wasn't looking good.
Space debris was all over the place and hundreds of ships were looming over the planet. In stark contrast, the defense force of the planet only numbered in the couple of dozen.
"They're everywhere!" A person in charge of air control shouted out in horror. "Slipspace rupture detected." The AI announced. "Fuck, this can't be happening! Our forces are already busy with ground engagement. And they send their whole fleet or something? This is bullshit!" Another one cried out.
The fleet was comprised of hundreds of ships and the planet's defense system has a massive hole on it already. It is only a matter of time before it falls.
"Hehe... Guhahaha! Boys, we die here today. Like hell we'll give these ugly fucks a chance in hell to take us down that easily!" An officer shouted out to raise morale. Everybody then nodded and would give messages in person or short range radio. Because the comms were also disabled on the ground by the alien forces.
"Unknown slipspace detected. No ruptures, only spatial distortions." The AI announced and everybody looked over if it was new Covenant technology that have more advanced slipspace tech.
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph." One of the air control staff uttered. "How large is that thing!? Do a scan now!" An officer shouted and the AI did its analysis. "It is approximately the size of New York, fitted with what seems to be heavy railgun turrets the size of cities. No signs of Covenant technology at a mere glance. Conclusion, unknown battleship."
"It's doing something." Bismarck's thrusters glowed and it suddenly maneuvered to the front of the battlefield in almost an instant. Arcs of electricity crackled and the turrets lined up. Separating from the main body of the ship.
"Hmm, it seems we're at war. And the humans are obviously losing." Ramiel put on his hat and snapped his fingers, changing into a white admiral uniform for the style. "Bismarck, activate frontal assault mode."
She saluted and every weapon of the titanic battleship were loaded immediately. "Ahem, is this thing on." Ramiel tapped on a mic and every single communication system in the planet's vicinity heard his voice.
"So, this is captain Ramiel speaking. This is the Iron Blood flagship, tactical class super heavy assault battleship. And here we arrive seeing foul xenos scum trying to destroy an innocent planet." Ramiel said wistfully and the turrets glowed dangerously.
"Humans, have no fear. The emperor protects, die! Xenos filth, for the emperor!" Ramiel nodded at Bismarck and a flash of light suddenly blinded every spectator that was looking at the sky.
The turrets fired their super heavy shells and the first capital ship it hit turned into a thermonuclear bomb. The bombardment of a full broadside hitting them at full force and the energy vaporized the whole fleet instantly.
"Brace for impact! Take cover!" The humans on the ground saw the massive explosions and its energy would surely hit the planet. An overwhelming force would rock it, but a shield appeared on the planet and it protected the whole thing without a scratch.
"Muahahahaha! That's it, my first naval battle in space! Overwhelming victory! No mercy for these foul xenos!" Ramiel laughed like a maniac and Esdeath clapped in excitement at the destruction. Meanwhile, Aqua was covering Rapunzel's eyes so she couldn't see them get annihilated to the last ship.
Bismarck combined itself again and they landed on a civilian outpost where emergency evacuations were being held. A lot of them were shot down by the Covenant and everybody feared the appearance of another unknown ship right above them that casted a shadow on everything.
"This is captain Ramiel speaking, gather all civvies STAT. We will be carrying them in our vessel, we will send a medic for all injured. Even those triaged as red patients are included." He announced and the people who saw their evac ships getting shot down regained hope.
Rapunzel went down with Aqua and they floated in the sky. "Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine. Heal those who are injured, cover them with your light divine." A soft light shone from her and all the injured regenerated at a massive rate.
"This is terrible, there are casualties everywhere." Aqua checked the surroundings and it was like a dystopian world. Buildings everywhere were ruined, there were dead soldiers that littered the streets.
Rapunzel frowned and she spread her arms, her hair floating in the air as it shone brighter. For thousands of miles, all the injured humans were filled with strength and vitality.
The civilians that were gathered rather quickly suddenly teleported inside of Bismarck and the place turned into a ghost town immediately. Only leaving military personnel on the ground.
Esdeath followed suit and the trio landed on the ground. They got aimed at with rifles and Esdeath raised a brow. "Are you sure you want to point that thing on me soldier? If you want to die, then I'll humor you."
"Stand down soldier, they're friendlies from the ship." A marine officer raised his hand. "Awww, I wanted you to shoot and show you what would happen." Esdeath shook her head in disappointment.
The officer broke into a cold sweat at her words, they were unknown units and she was obviously a soldier. Wearing what seems to be a uniform. And she was excited about fighting whole squads on their lonesome.
"Hi~ I'm Rapunzel, did you guys all get healed? Or are there more injured that didn't land in the scope of my powers?" She waved at them as a greeting and the officer was quite shocked by the disconnect. The two are worlds apart in their aura and how they carry themselves.
"Ahh, yes. Thank you very much for your help." The soldiers saluted and there were even some who regrew limbs, tearing up at being saved by the timely help.
The trio nodded at them nonchalantly and returned to the ship, Bismarck already had the coordinates on another civilian post. The ship teleported and they saw a city that was being attacked. Ruins everywhere as plasma and fire raged.
"This is terrible." Rapunzel gasped, seeing a war. Especially to a young woman that has never seen such violence in her life. "That's just how war is Rapunzel, steady yourself and let's commence our evac mission." Ramiel patted her head and he looked at Esdeath.
"By your will." She saluted and floated in the middle of the city. "Russian winter." With her newfound control, the whole city of New Alexandria's fires froze instantly. The Covenant ships that were trying to glass the city turned into ice and became diamond dust.
"Fuuu, that takes care of them. This is quite intensive." She took in a deep breath, it was much harder to control her powers precisely and accurately. And with a wave on the ship, she gestured that the coast was clear.
"The UNSC are inactive in saving civvies, this is troubling." Ramiel ordered a scan on the whole planet and the leaders were still going with operation red flag. A plan to send in the spartan II's to kidnap Covenant prophets for a hostage situation.
"Bismarck, send out a pulse." He looked at her and she nodded. Energy gathered and the ship suddenly sent out an EMP after shielding the ground. Every Covenant tech on the planet suddenly failed and they roamed around for civilians everywhere, evacuating people as much as possible.
The ship then returned to New Alexandria, with Aqua and Esdeath entering ground combat for a search and destroy operation. "Why didn't you just freeze off these ugly bastards?" Aqua raised a brow after cutting down an elite.
"Well, sorry that I only disabled all the fires and naval assets here princess. I implore you to grace me with your overwhelming power and help me." Esdeath rolled her eyes and Aqua flinched. "Sorry, good job."
"You're goddamned right it was a good job." Esdeath snorted and Aqua got a little conceited. After running around all over the city with relentless efficiency, they killed every alien looking motherfucker on sight.
Teleporting everywhere with corridors of darkness as they split up and murdered anything in their wake. "Hmmm? Humans?" Esdeath just froze an elite Sangheili's head off like a popsicle and popped it between her hands. And a group of soldiers in intricate armor appeared nearby.
"We're friendly." A woman called out to her. "Did she just kill that elite with her bare hands?" A guy with an accessorized helmet like Ghost uttered in disbelief.
"I see, I am general Esdeath. It is nice to meet you I guess." She greeted them nonchalantly and threw away the elite's body that she was carrying with one hand.
"We are Noble team, thank you very much for your help." Their leader was grateful and Esdeath shrugged. "No worries, I've fought entire wars on my own. This is piss easy in comparison, soldiers."
"Now, are we gonna keep talking. Or kill some of these ugly bastards?" Esdeath liked how they smelled. Of blood, and gunpowder.
"Of course, let's kill these alien fucks." A guy who definitely looked eager to kill them was excited. "Good choice, now let's go." Esdeath took them with her and they assaulted enemy squads with her on the front.
Esdeath fought with an energy sword she picked up on the ground, not wanting to use her keyblade on so called lowlives.
And after a few more raids here and there, they met up with Aqua. "Why're you with 5 other random people?" She thought that was out of character for her.
"They looked competent soldiers, and I wasn't wrong. They were quite useful, not really great. But useful nonetheless." Esdeath shrugged and the spartans winced at her words.
She was a mad lad, killing grunts and elites with only an energy sword, ignoring all fire on her like a damned tank. They had no qualms about being called mediocre.
"Colonel Holland is hailing us, it's on an open link Carter. Keep it brief, but I think being careful isn't needed anymore." The woman said to her team. "Carter here, yes sir." After a short talk, they received their orders.
"They want us to go to SWORD." Carter announced. "But why SWORD? It's in the Covenant's hands now." One of them thought it was stupid.
"Covenant? So this is what they're called? You, where is this SWORD place called?" Esdeath pointed at Carter and they lit up. Having their support would be immaculate.
"It's right here ma'am." He pointed at a map and Esdeath nodded. "I received a message from Ramiel, Bismarck will take care of the support of the fleet that's coming again and he wants to annihilate Covenant forces here on the ground ASAP." Aqua informed her.
"It's your lucky day soldiers, you'll be seeing our commander enter the battlefield." Esdeath teleported back with Noble team to the SWORD base and they were immediately spotted.
"Take cover! This place is overrun with Covenant forces!" Carter shouted, and Esdeath raised a pillar of ice on them as cover. "Like their puny guns can even damage us." She snorted and Noble team were awed at the supernatural powers.
"Is that magic? Jun, Kat, Emile, you seeing this crap?" Carter was flabbergasted. "He's coming." Aqua looked at the sky and they followed suit. A meteor dropped right in the middle of the battlefield and an earthquake shook everything.
"Such a flashy entrance as usual." Aqua sighed and shook her head wistfully. Rays of light exited the dust cloud and killed enemy forces with pinpoint accuracy.
Esdeath laughed when she saw Ramiel holding Rapunzel's shaped hair like a rifle and firing at the enemies. "Pew, pew, pew, take that you xenos filth!" Ramiel was having the time of his life.
"H-he's your commander?" Kat asked with shock in her voice and Noble team froze at the sight. It was surreal, one shot, one kill. It was like he had aimbot on him, and he was clearly playing around.
"Y-yeah, he is. Don't worry though, he's very reliable..." Aqua's eyebrows twitched as she gave a wry smile at Noble team. Ramiel then formed Rapunzel's hair as two handguns and spun around, killing enemies left and right.
After a few minutes, he cleared out the area and Noble team just watched him with exasperation. Ramiel blew on Rapunzel's hair and even created an effect of smoke coming out of the barrels. "Mission complete, private Rapunzel,"
"I thought you wanted to get rid of them quickly though?" Esdeath asked of him and he forgor. "Oh yeah, I did huh? Anyways, let's get it done then." He shrugged and floated in the air.
"What's he doing?" Carter asked and they felt their skin stand up on end, feeling the magic. But not understanding what it was. "He's going to rain down divine judgement on this planet." Esdeath explained.
"Calculating trajectories, target locked." Ramiel clapped and they watched what would happen next curiously. Light appeared all over the planet and a sudden flash was next. Every Covenant force got disintegrated at the next nanosecond. No survivors taken, absolute annihilation.
Ramiel dusted his hands off and returned back on the ground. "Well, that's all of them." He shrugged and Rapunzel noticed one of them has a prosthetic arm. "You lost an arm? That's terrible, let me fix that for you real quick." She pointed at her and her arm regrew in a couple of seconds.
"W-who exactly are you people?" Carter was baffled and the curiosity was killing him. "Hmmm? We were just roaming around and we suddenly arrived here. Lucky for you, isn't it? We were searching for Disney princesses, but we can't possibly just leave the planet alone." He shrugged.
An explosion in the skies then rumbled as Bismarck shot down the other waves of Covenant fleet that entered the system like ants being bombarded with dynamite, overkill.
Noble team then sat down for a second. "P-princesses?" Kat looked at her new arm and thought about their objectives.
"Yup, princesses." Ramiel nodded and they hung their heads low. "We got saved by some people using magic that are searching for princesses... Did you record that?" Carter looked at his team and they nodded.
It would be then recorded in the human-covenant war that Reach was saved by mysterious superhumans that were searching for princesses.
