A/N: This is the final chapter! I can finally wrap this story up! And you all know what that means. Hammerlock's Hunt on the original Male Siren storyline. I'm wondering if a lot of you are going to be around for that. Anyway, here's the last chapter! This shouldn't be a long chapter. I actually expect to be very short.


The pupils in my eyes were shining with a bright orange on the very outside, while I had a smile on my face as I surveyed the chaos that was taking place.

The Warrior, the Eridian creature that I commanded, was currently on a rampage. Maya and Zer0 had gone to deal with Sanctuary and burn it to the ground while I led the Warrior through Pandora. There was a lot of Pandora that was infected by bandit and wildlife impurity alike. But I was going to get the job done. I didn't have to shoot anything cause I didn't have to, but it was kind of boring. All I really had to do was direct the Warrior where to go and it would destroy it. Everything that tried to shoot us was engulfed in flames after a few shots.

"How you doing out there kiddo?" Jack asked me over the ECHO.

"A little bored. But I've covered a lot of ground with the Warrior. Eridium Blight, Sawtooth Cauldron, and The Dust have fallen. I'm making my way through Three Horns now. I tell you, directing this thing is tiring when you've got nothing to shoot.

"The fun part of the job is over. Now it's all about getting the tedious parts done. Once you do that, you will have truly finished here," Jack told me, cutting off the ECHO.

It took weeks extended into more weeks to finish off Pandora. And this was directing the Warrior 60 hours a day. It was tedious as all living fuck. It sucked that I couldn't just transfer the orders to someone else, but no. The Warrior listens to me and me alone. Even if I tell the Warrior to listen to them. So this was a job only I could do. Now I'm sure Jack was happy he gave the responsibility of the Warrior to me. Cause he doesn't have to do this.

"You tired?" Maya asked me when I dragged myself into our room in the Friendship Gulag. That was the only part of The Dust that wasn't engulfed in flames.

"Very. I hate directing that thing with nothing to shoot or entertain myself in the meanwhile. It's a tedious job," I told her, collapsing on my bed. Maya looked up from her book to walk over next to me and lay down to the bed next to me. I raised an eyebrow at this.

"Decided to join me?" I questioned idly.

"Yes," Maya said just as idly.

"Sorry I haven't had a chance for that date. This has just got to get done," I told her.

"I understand. You have to do what you have to do," Maya told me. I grabbed her hand that was normally gloved, but not this time and rubbed my thumb over it.

"My father used to always tell me, 'Son, you may not always be able to do what you want to do, but you always have to do what you have to do.' That advice really applies to this situation," I said, raising her hand to my lips and kissing it tenderly. Maya smiled.

"That's very good advice. And if you're done talking about work, we can do something besides you setting her and talking while rubbing my hand. It's sweet, but I hope you don't expect me to get by on that alone," she said, making me grin widely before rolling on top of her.

"Alright. Then enough pleasantries," I said before holding the back of her head and capturing her lips in a kiss. She grabbed the back of my head and gripped what little hair I had while pushing my head further down, deepening this kiss.

"Sir, you've made..." I heard someone say. I immediately rolled off Maya and off the bed straight on my feet. I looked towards the door to see that a Hyperion soldier had walked in and I'm sure if I could've seen his face, it would've been an extremely awkward one.

"...a lot of progress..." he continued awkwardly.

"Yeah. I know I've made a lot of progress. I was there when it happened. Now it's been a long day, and I'm tired. Can I please have the little time I get out of these days to myself please?" I asked politely. Though I was about ready to flail some people alive if I couldn't 'relieve' some stress.

"Yes sir. Um... I'll just refer to Mr. Jack and he'll refer to you at a later date. Forgive me for barging in," the soldier said, backpedaling out of the door. I turned back to Maya, who was looking at me with an even look. Then the look turned into one of a type of seductive daring as she gestured her finger back and forth. I smiled. The moment was not ruined yet.

"First things first..." I said before rushing over to the door. I immediately sealed it before heading back over to Maya. Whether she suddenly became more comfortable with her sexuality or she wanted me as much as I wanted her, I couldn't tell. Whatever the reason, I didn't care. All that really mattered was what was happening now.


I laid on my bed with my hands on the back of my head, sighing in relaxation. This is really what I needed. A chance to relax.

"Feeling good?" I asked idly as I looked towards Maya. I don't recall her ever having a messy look. But her hair was no longer straight like it was before, her face was red, lips puffy, and her shirt wrinkled. I had never even seen her without her yellow light armor plate on her chest before now. I liked her more in a tank top.

"Yeah. You?" Maya asked.

"Very. That's certainly a way to relax from boring jobs," I said evenly.

"It's certainly better than reading," Maya said.

"Then I must be good. That's all you do in your spare time when you're not working," I told her.

"Cause I do like to read. Doesn't compare to this though. First time I've felt like a woman in my life. Never got any of that on Athenas," Maya said, crossing her leg over her foot.

"Well, I'm certainly glad I'm helped you reach that point. But regardless whether you had me or not, you'd still be a woman. And a damn good one too," I told her.

"Thanks. But I'd be missing that certain affection that I've never gotten if I didn't have you. Cause lets face it. I'm pretty sure you're the only one who's actually close to me. I either have enemies or allies. That's about it," Maya said.

"Well..." I said, grabbing ahold of her hand again. "I think I can grow to love you after a while. I won't lie. I won't tell you that I love you just cause that's just what you want to hear. I'm telling you that I haven't quite grown to love you. I definitely have feelings for you, but it hasn't evolved into full blown love yet. That takes time."

"I appreciate your honesty. Cause I suppose I feel the same way," Maya said, gripping my hand tighter. Then I could see my ECHO flashing brightly. I groaned.

"How much you want to bet it's Jack?" I asked.

"Don't have to bet. I know it is," Maya said, passing my ECHO. I then answered the call.

"Speak," I said evenly.

"How ya doing kiddo?" Jack asked.

"Knew it was going to be you. What do you need? I've covered my rounds of the Warrior for today," I told him.

"Yeah, I know that. But I've got a surprise for you. You and your Siren friend. Zer0's already been down here, so don't worry about him. Get to the center of the base," Jack said. I nodded. Sounds like he had another reward for us.

"Alright, we'll be there soon," I said before facing Maya. "He's got another reward for us."

"Another one? Wow, this job turned out to be really worth it," Maya said before looking pointedly at me. "Beyond worth it." I couldn't help but grin like a fool.

"I couldn't agree more," I said, giving her a small kiss on the lips. "You going out in the tank top?"

"No. Personally, you're the only one I'm taking it off for," Maya said, going for her armor. I raised an eyebrow.

"Wow. That sounded extremely sexual, even though that was far from your intention I'm sure," I told her. Maya chuckled a little as she shook her head.

"Yeah. I've definitely fallen for a hormonal guy. It's only gonna get worse the more we advance in this relationship, isn't it?" Maya asked.

"Oh, most definitely. It's alright. I have a feeling the same will happen to you too," I said, cracking my neck before gesturing towards the door. I allowed Maya to pass before following directly behind her and staring at her ass the entire time.

"I knew that was your plan," Maya said without even turning around. I grinned before quickly catching up and smacking it lightly. She turned and gave me a light smack up the side of my head, but I could tell it was all in good fun.

We made it to the center of the base that Jack mentioned, and the first thing I saw was the big ass shuttle that was in the center.

"Is this our reward?" Maya asked as we walked up to him.

"Kinda. You'll need this to get to the reward. Don't worry. You'll like the surprise," Jack said, gesturing to the ship. We looked at each other and shrugged before getting on the shuttle. Maya made idle conversation with me until we ran out of stuff to talk about. Then she pulled out two books for us to read. Then the shuttle was completely quiet for the rest of the trip. Personally, I didn't mind a good book to read. I had a lot of things that were higher on my list to do, but I liked reading. Relaxing and informative.

"We're here," the pilot said. The only two words that he had said this entire trip.

I handed Maya her book back before I moved to the door of the shuttle. Upon stepping off, I noticed that we were definitely in space. There was no question judging by the endless abyss that was behind the shuttle. More specifically, it looked like we were on Helios.

"This Jack's space station?" Maya asked me.

"Looks like it. Why'd he send us here?" I asked as a man was walking up to us.

"Are you the Vault Hunters Maya and Robert?" the man asked.

"That's us. Who wants to know?" I asked. Then the man grinned widely before going into a low bow.

"First of all, Jack told us all about you. Can't tell you how glad you showed up. I just had to get that out of the way," he said in an excited tone.

"Our pleasure. Now if you don't mind..." I said, moving my hands in a circling gesture to make him continue.

"Oh, right! This way please. Handsome Jack has a surprise for you both," the man said, walking the other way.

We followed closely behind him. Maya's eyebrows were furrowed in a type of questioning way. I had a thoughtful look on my face as I walked without even thinking about it. He was leading us on quite the run around. I sincerely hoped he wasn't about to stab me in the back. Cause I don't want to have to burn this station to the ground and tell The Warrior to destroy everything Hyperion is trying to build. Would've been a complete waste of resources.

He led us to a double glass door before pushing it opened. What was behind the door was a restaurant. Though I could easily say it was one of the most fancy ones I've seen. It had a low red lighting with a crystal chandelier directly at the top in the center of the ceiling. The carpet that was on the ground had a smooth, velvety look to it. Almost as if you touched it, it'd feel like straight silk. But the number of tables were very much reduced. There were only two chairs and a table directly in the center. I didn't need to second guess what he brought us up here for. But I couldn't resist smiling.

"I know exactly why he brought us here," I said before contacting him.

"Like it?" Jack asked me.

"How'd you even know?" I asked as the man lead us further inside.

"I have security cams in every room of the base. One look in yours told me all I needed to know when you two were going at it like you were trying to eat each other," Jack said with a laugh, making me blush a little bit. But that small bit of embarrassment was extinguished by disbelief.

"Wait, you were spying on us?" I said in a tone of flabbergasted disbelief. The expression on my face was likely to be hilarious as I said that.

"Considering the show you two were putting on, it's kinda hard not to. Think about that the next time you two want to make out in my base, eh?" Jack said. I could hear the laughter in his voice. He was enjoying this.

"Wow. You are an asshole. But you're a good person at the same time," I told him.

"Thanks. Now, enjoy tonight. I got you dinner, clothes, and a hotel room. On number three, number two probably won't be used very much," Jack said, innuendo dripping from his tone.

"Stop it," I told him in a tone that was attempting to be stern, but ended coming out hoarser than I imagined.

"Whatever you say, Casanova. Anyway, I'll leave you in the hands of Aurelia. She'll take care of the rest," Jack said, shutting off the call. I looked up and the man that lead us here was gone. In his place was a woman with a strapped dress that looked like it was worth a ton of money. She had her hands behind her back and a composed look on her face as if she was a paragon of class and etiquette. Judging by the way she looked, she probably was.

"I assume Jack is done with you for tonight?" she asked.

"More than likely he is, yes," I told her.

"Finally. Now, he rented out this place for the both of you. It wasn't cheap, I might add. But regardless whether it is reserved for you two, I still abide by a certain law of class. So..." Aurelia said, summoning a tuxedo that looked exactly my size from the ECHO gripped in a perfectly polished series of nails. "Get changed." She tossed the tux at me before pointing to a room in the back. I walked to the room in the back and changed quickly like I always tended to do. I didn't want to take too much time just to change out of a certain pair of clothes.

I walked back in the main hall in a few seconds, adjusting my tie and walking with a confident stride. I felt really good while wearing this. It wasn't often I wore stuff like this. Normally it was mercenary gear or casual clothing. Never formal wear like this.

"That is much better. Like expected, your lady is not ready yet, so..."

"Let's get something straight. She's not my lady. We haven't quite figured out what we are, but she's not my lady," I told her sternly.

"I fail to see the point of your offense you took of my statement. Isn't it-"

"When you say 'your lady,' I think of it as if she's a notch in my belt. Something that there are more of or I can replace readily. That is not the case. So if you would mind, do not use that wording around me," I said, a hint of warning in my voice.

"Very well. Then do I address her as?" Aurelia asked me.

"Her name, Maya. Address me the same way. That makes things much simpler," I told her.

"Very. Then take a seat as you are waiting for her to come out," Aurelia said stiffly. I nodded before walking to the table that was in the center of the room and had my foot crossed over my knee in a form of relaxation.

I took less than five minutes for Maya to finally come out. The door opening immediately caught my attention, and I immediately looked towards the direction the sound came from and what I saw caused me to stand to my feet and my eyes to widen.

Maya walked out of the room looking down at the dress she was wearing and smoothing it out. The color was very reminiscent of refined Eridium; a bright purple that immediately caught attention and left you in a daze at how beautiful it looked. Though it only enhanced the look of the woman in it.

"Hmm. Very nice dress. I do suppose..." Maya said before looking up at me staring at her before smiling. "I see someone else likes it."

"It only refines the look of the woman in it," I said, going up to her and placing my hands on her cheeks and kissing her lightly on the forehead. I then led her over to the table in the center and pulled out her chair for her. She walked around and sat in the chair before I pushed it up for her.

"Looks like we got that date that we never went on," I said as I sat back down.

"Looks like it," Maya said, looking around. I looked around and saw that Aurelia had disappeared.

"Guess she went to get the food. Anyway, just..." I was cut off by the door opening. As I turned, I could see a waiter carrying a bottle of champagne and two menus as he strode over to our table.

"Sir. Madam. Enjoying your evening?" he asked us.

"Very much so, thank you. Maya?" I asked her.

"It's going fairly well," she said.

"Excellent. I can't believe you two have fallen for each other. The galaxy will rave over you two. You can bet that you'll be the talk of ECHOnet," the man said, pouring champagne in our glasses.

"That is if they find out. And until something solidifies, I want no one sticking their nose in our business," I said sternly.

"Me as well," Maya said.

"Don't worry. My lips are sealed. Just enjoy today. I guarantee you'll love what we have to offer," the man said, placing the menus on our table walking away from us. Before we even touched the menus, I grabbed my glass and raised it. Maya did the same.

"Shall we toast?" I said.

"We shall. To the soon to be pure Pandora!" I said.

"To Hyperion!" Maya said.

"To the Eridians for making the Warrior!" I said, just throwing something random out there.

"To Handsome Jack for hiring us!" Maya said before we made eye contact. I stared at her sharp grey eyes for a moment before rising my glass slightly higher.

"To you," I said softly. Maya smiled before doing the same.

"To you as well," she said. Our glasses connected and we took a sip. This was our beginning. This was Pandora's new beginning. Order had been restored. Now there's nothing left but to live our lives. Hopefully they'll be full of love, loot, and happiness.

"May we last together forever," I said softly as I lowered the glass from my lips.


A/N: And that's it! Final chapter, and personally, I liked how I did it. It was kind of odd to end it where I did, but honestly, what more is there to cover? I probably didn't showcase Zer0 as much as I should've, but he wasn't a main role in this story, sorry to say. The Male Siren version of Hammerlock's Hunt should be up soon. It's defintiely on my list. I started a little on it already. Nothing to do but wait. See you all!
