[February 16th, 9:15 AM; All are welcome.]
It has been over a year since Atlas fought in the Game of Destiny, and she was BORED. Right now, Atlas spent most of her time in the Outlands, keeping her skills sharp on the nearly endless supply of mavericks that seemed to crawl out of the woodwork in the uncivilized areas of the world.
It was within a cold, savage forest that Atlas decided to test her skills next, firing upon nearly every mechanaloid that moved within the trees. Careful not to set the forest ablaze, Atlas only fired uncharged shots at her quarry.
"Fifty-seven... Fifty-eight... Fifty-nine..." Atlas softly muttered under her breath, keeping score of her mechanaloid kill-count. Within the forest, each shot fired was sharp, loud, and clear before being followed by a loud explosion that rang clear through the trees. Due to the the otherwise silent environment, these shots could be heard for miles.

Leon was wondering through the forest this cold winter morning...well, cold was subjective, like most things, as Leon didn't do the cold. As he walked he couldn't help but notice how quiet it was...or so Leon thought.
Not even a second after he thought that he heard an explosion. Followed be another, and another.
"Wonder what that is?"
//Care to check it out, Leon?//
"Way ahead of you."
Leon worked his way through the forest, ducking under tree branches and all that fun forest stuff. As he did the explosions got louder and louder and soon Leon could hear what sounded like someone counting. It was around this time that Model C poked its head out of Leon's backpack and floated in front of Leon.
//I sense Biometal, Leon, and a strong one. I advise the utmost caution, we've most likely been detected as well.//
Leon nodded as he continued through the forest.

"Sixty-four, Sixty-five--
<Yo, Atlas! I sense biometal nearby. Could be trouble, ya know?>
Warned by her biometal, Atlas immediately stopped shooting and swiveled around, both busters searching for the intruder. "Hey! Who's there?" Atlas called, poised for action in case anything should happen.

Leon froze as he heard her call out.
...what do I do?
//Its now or never, Leon!//
Model C flew behind Leon as he stepped out into the clearing that Atlas was in and looked around. So she was the cause of the explosions...look at all those mavericks.
"Easy there...no need to point those things at me."
//Leon, look at those weapons! This guy has some firepower!//
Indeed those knuckle busters were pretty big weapons, not as big as the C-Cannon, but the fact that she had two of them...If Leon got into a fight with her this could be a problem.

Atlas heard some footsteps near her position and quickly whirled around, busters pointed at Leon. When she saw that he was unarmed, she put the guns away on her back but didn't de-merge.
"Who are you? Why are you here, and more importantly, where is your biometal, mega man?" Atlas asked frankly, not one to beat around the bushes. Her voice was stern and commanding, but she tried to refrain from being too threatening. She figured that she was already threatening enough with two big guns while megamerged.

Leon blinked. Okay, she was going to be blunt.
"Guess there is no point in hiding, C."
//Guess not...//
Leon crossed his arms as C floated out beside him.
"Is it a crime for someone to walk around the forest?"
//You know, Leon...the more I think about it...this guy's voice sounds...feminine.//
"...Huh..." he whispered to himself. Now that C had pointed it out Leon was starting to notice it. Though, it was rather hard to tell because of the armor Atlas had on, the voice was indeed that of a woman.
interesting...

"No, but it IS an invasion of privacy to spy on someone while their training, not to mention dangerous." Atlas said impatiently, crossing her arms.
"So why are you here in the first place? You could have gotten shot." Atlas asked, irritated that she was interrupted from her target practice.

"Yes, but it's not like I just wondered out here looking for you in the first place. If you must know, miss, I was going to do some training here myself, since I cannot in the city, but then my biometal detected you and I just so happened to find you." He shrugs, placing his hands behind his head.
"And I'm not to worried about being shot at, I've been in wars where we were outnumbered and made it out without major wounds. I'm sure I can handle you."

Atlas just had to smirk at that. She hadn't had a good battle with a mega man in a long time. "Is that a challenge?" Atlas asked, almost hoping Leon wanted to fight her. Not to the death of course; that was unnecessary now that Model W was gone.
<Hey, Atlas, you sure you ain't over your head? You haven't fought a real Mega Man in while, you know?>
-I can handle myself, Model F. Just do your job and help me fight when I need you to.-

Leon raised an eyebrow. Did it come across as a challenge? Huh, he needs to be more careful of what he says next time.
"I suppose it could have been a challenge.
...but then again, it might not have." He saw her smirk and he smirked as well. This girl...she was different then the rest.
//You're not serious, are you Leon?//
"I sure as heck am, C. She doesn't seem to be out for chaos causing, and it sure beats training by myself."
"Hey Miss, I'll take you on, if that's what you want."
Model C sighed and floated back until it was behind Leon's left shoulder.

Atlas pulled out her busters and jumped back, ready to spar. "Let's do this. I hope you'er ready, because I'm not an easy opponent. Of course, you don't have to worry about anything. I won't TRY to kill you. Atlas said, eager to get the battle on. She was fairly confident that her new sparing partner figured out that this wasn't a fight to the death, but just a sparing match. Fingers on the triggers, Atlas awaited the man's response to see if he were a real man or a spineless wimp. Either way, she would get back to shooting things.

He chuckled. "I won't try and kill you either, Miss." he said, grabbing Model C from his shoulder and activating his Mega Merge.
After the flash was gone, Leon stood there, his C-Cannon resting on the ground as he supported it with his outstretched right hand. His visor was already down over his eyes and Model C was already in the process of scanning Atlas' weapons.
//Seems like her weapons are more then just blasters, Leon. If I were you I'd try and avoid getting close to her.//
"Interesting weapons, you've got there." Leon said, eying them to try and figure out just what C meant whenever he said there was more to them than just blasters.

"Thanks for the compliment. But enough talk, let's do this!"
Atlas opened fire with a blast of bullet-fire, using buster-edit to make the paths zig-zag toward her target to make them harder to doge. Planning her moves in advance, Atlas took a look at that big gun the man was carrying.
--A big gun, huh? Probably shoots slow, but powerful blasts. If all I have to do is wait for him to fire, I can just dodge and get in close and end this fast... Or I could play with him a bit.--

Leon nodded and took a battle stance, waiting for those few seconds before the gun-fire began. He was thrown back by the zig-zagging of the buster shot and therefore unable to avoid them. What little he was able to block, he used the flat side of his C-Cannon to block, not worried about the damage it took as he could always summon up another.
He waited for a chance where it slowed and once he saw it he took advantage, quickly taking his cannon and aiming, pulling the trigger and firing a round of missiles (full round is 4 shots) before beginning to charge the buster.
//Those are some interesting busters, Leon.//
Tell me something I don't know, C.
//Well, how about the fact that those little busters of her's have even <em>more</em> surprises in store for us. We should get our hands on these.//
Then get to work on it, C!
Leon made a dash out of the line of fire as he cannon continued to charge, keeping his eyes on Atlas the whole time, though.

The second she let up her fire, Atlas found four missiles flying at her. Quickly dashing to a nearby tree, she dashed and wall-jumped over the missiles, taking them all out with one buster while charging the other. She was still a bit worried about that giant gun the other mega man was carrying, and kept her eye on it while she charged her own weapon.
