"I-I'm a capital ship in the Iron Blood! Don't come any closer!" The Blond haired woman said.
Daniel's face twisted in confusion,
Why do her eyes look like that?
Why does her nose look so strange?
She definitely looked human, but not in a way that Daniel had seen before.
Was this some kind of skin condition?
(Authors Note, Daniel is from our world, as is the Bismarck and it's crew,
All Azur Lane characters are ANIME people. Who are not from our world
This is just the way I envision it, though.)
A few seconds passed with Daniel and the Blond haired woman just staring at each other.

"Hey Daniel! Hans shouted from around a corner
I've been calling you but you haven't been-" Hans stopped
"Daniel, who on earth is that?" Hans said.
Daniel didn't exactly know how to respond, other than giving Hans a slightly confused expression.

Ernst clambered into the seat of his plane, followed swiftly by Günter, who was preparing his camera.
"How's the day been treating you Herr Leuntnant?" Ernst asked.
"Just perfectly...." Günter said.
"Do you think we'll see anything?" Ernst asked,
"I don't know, but we sure won't be if this #@$#* camera doesn't decide to work." Günter said.
"Do you think it was that fog we went through?" Ernst said.
Günter looked at him strangely,
"What does fog have to do with anything?" Günter said.
"I dunno, I thought that thing was working just fine a while ago." Ernst said,
Günter slid down into the rear cockpit of the aircraft,
Ernst bent out of the cockpit of the plane
"Has the damage to the catapult been fixed?" He shouted to a crewman on deck that was tasked with fixing the catapult
"It should be working just fine!" He shouted
Ernst nodded, and slammed the canopy shut.
He started the BMW engine
*vrmrmrmrmrmrm
The prop rotated slowly,
And then, contact
*chrt! - BROOAAAAAAAAM!
The engine advanced up to a steady rpm,
Ernst increased the throttle,
The engine grew louder as he pushed the throttle forwards
And then,
*CHK-WINK!
The plane flew forwards.
And then it flew off of the catapult,
It fell down a little, but the lift of the plane's speed kept it airborne.
"Takeoff successful!" Ernst said as the plane proceeded to climb past 100 meters.
"Understood, proceed to scout the general area, find anyone that may be trying to sneak up on us." The radio center from the Bismarck responded.

Below the decks of Battleship Bismarck
"Daniel, who on Earth is that?" Hans said, referring to the woman
"How am I supposed to know! She just randomly appeared!?" Daniel said.
Seizing this moment of confusion, the woman tore off as fast as she could.
"Hey! Stop!" Hans shouted.
Daniel joined in the chase.
———————
Bismarck simply tore away as fast as she could,
The two captors were too busy arguing with each other to see that she was backing away to escape.
She could hear their voices barking for her to stop in German, in which she did not, only pushing herself faster.
She ran up stairs as fast as she could.
"I think she went this way!" A voice shouted.
The adrenaline started pumping,
She then went straight through a metal door,
*BANG!
She slammed open the door,
And she was instantly met with absolutely blinding sunlight.
After blinking a little she shook her head, trying to clear up from being disoriented.
She looked to one side, attempting to find an escape route.
Instead, she only saw rows of weapons and deck stretching out for dozens of meters.
And then is when she ended up seeing the crew of the giant vessel,
There were people everywhere, in sailor outfits.
She shook her head one again, snapping it from wasting time by looking around
And for the third time she attempted to summon her rigging.
She waited a few more seconds,
Nothing.
"Why can't I...!" She shouted,
"Hey! Who are-" someone shouted.
A hand grabbed the back of her shirtneck, dragging her backwards.
She got yanked back inside the door.
And another person shut the metal door.
———————
"Let go! This instant!" The blond haired woman shouted.
"Hans, please let her loose...but don't let her escape" Daniel said.
"But she looks like she gonna kill us!" Hans shouted, still restraining her arms,
"If we don't reason with her then she will only keep trying to kill us!" Daniel said
Hans obliged, albeit begrudgingly.
"Don't get any funny ideas.." Hans said, slowly unrestraining her hands,
"Now listen, I just want to talk" Daniel said, showing his hands so that she could see that there was nothing in them.
"Uh, my name is Daniel, Daniel Gotthard.
This is Hans..." Daniel said.
The woman looked increasingly cross, but she seemed to decide that there was nothing better she could do.
"I am Bismarck, she said with authority
the flagship of the Iron Blood." The woman said
Bismarck? Flagship?
