A Second introduction

[ugyuuya]

[1]

[After his last rather disastrous mission in Russia Yuuya had been re-routed to the Yukon base with Lt. Takamura, argos support staff, and the remains of the Shiranui Second. The consoles at UG bases are all tuned to the special reveal of the just what had been happening during that time frame.

With much pomp and ceremony the Shiranui Second Phase Two has been revealed. Tarisa is piloting the unit for the ceremony while Yuuya watches with Vincent from inside the hangar.]

[Upon return to Alhambra there are two of the newly revealed units, one with the rather blatant ceremonial paint job and the other with a much darker blue/black paint job. Exiting the brighter one Yuuya stretches and yawns as he disembarks.]

"Man, after all that mess in Russia and the rapid rebuild into phase 2 I'm glad to be back. Never thought things would be more relaxing at a front line combat base than a testing facility."

It feels good to be back at a place where the weather is not freezing cold, doesn't it? Not to mention the lack of aliens trying to bite you in half.

Well I'm sure if we just wait for a bit we'll have something else show up to try to kill us, I'm betting on some new threat given that we've clashed with most of our old ones in relatively short order recently.

But it is nice to be back, probably about the closest place to home that I've got for now.

You always must be ready for new adversity to appear. That's just how life is; even in Paradigm City, secluded from the outside world, new problems appear on an everyday basis.

So this is your home. Don't you have anyone, or any place, waiting for you outside Unity Group?

[ugyuuya]

I don't usually care to talk about it but the short answer is no. I parted ways on less than friendly terms with most of my family and the person I could still talk to passed away about a year ago.

I'm sorry to hear that.

At least you have a place you can call home now. It's hard for a man to be happy if he doesn't have anywhere he feels he belongs.

[ugyuuya]

You get used to it.

But I will admit that the kids around here have grown on me more than I originally expected them to.

Probably because so many of them need some kind of help so frequently. [The last is blunted by a playful grin to carry over the joke/sarcasm]

You'd expect an international organization that handles world-level threats to have higher average age, wouldn't you.

Still, most of these kids are quite good at what they're do. Just lost in the huge world around them.
