As Atlas looked over the schematics sent to him from the engineers who worked on his Gear he received a message from Kiril. It turns out he had found a team that his sponsors really wanted him to join, and despite the fact that he had hoped to stay with CS he had to leave. Bill sighed he wondered if Rio was going to ditch him next? Maybe Sarah? Was his dream going to die before it started? Would he need to crawl back to the Thrones and ask for a place there? He hoped not. Yasumi was counting on him. He was a slacker but he was a good man who stuck by Bill. As Bill sat on his hands and wondered what was next for him he couldn't help but feel like things were falling a apart. Tests were tomorrow. He needed to buck up and take his place as leader. As Bill sat alone by himself suddenly a team approached. Third Year Gear Pilot: Yoko Hasagawa. Yoko was known on the indie circuit as a BIG possible name for recruitment when she graduated. In her first year she not only beat the top pilot in the school...but she did it by herself. Sponsored by a big company from Germany she was vicious, and dangerous as an assault type pilot. Her team was Static Sequence known for their brutal offensive. [b]"What's up Billy Boy? Got a problem with your team or somethin'?"[/b] commented Yoko kindly as she flaunted gorgeous figure in front of Bill. He tried not to frown at her. She had crushed him the first time they met last year. But that was with his old gear Exalted was not his old gear by any means. She wasn't a complete asshole on purpose but her chipper happy go lucky attitude made him not like her as much as the other people did. Beautiful, talented, and a generally better gear pilot than he'd ever likely be he wondered if Yoko acted the way she did because she was pitying the others around her. [color=ed1c24]"No I just wanted to get some paperwork out of the way, and do my studying. Knowing my enemies, and my tasks gives me an advantage I need to have."[/color] Bill commented as he stared up at Yoko trying his best not to let his gaze wander. [b]"The other guys say they think CS is finished. I hope not that team has been around forever. Good on you for sticking with it. I can't wait to battle you in the tournament! You got MASURAO that machine is freaking nuts! I saw your cousin fight in that thing. He tore up his competition like Swiss cheese!"[/b] commented Yoko as Bill finally understood what was going on here he gave a mental resignation to this situation.
