Deion walked in; he looked older, with a beard and a few grey hairs. His hair was black and greasy, and he was about to start speaking when he noticed a girl caressing her face. His muscular frame has some fat now stuck on.
"Who are you?" His voice was gruff and low as if he was ready to pounce, "They said you'd be here? How long has it been since you retired 4 months ago?" Deion stood there as she was yet to even look at who she was talking to.
"Yeah, 4 months..." The girl finally moved her hand away from Yukiko's face, "She's so pretty. So how would someone like you just let her get to... this?"
"I thought you knew about me? Didn't read my mission files?" She girl chuckled as she sat down, "Deion. I am someone who isn't important to you. The fact that you don't know me or even see me before shows that you don't care."
"Look Deion. I know you are you. I know you are Deion Hartwell. I also know you escaped an AMOSS with it being 5 minutes from impact whilst carrying someone. I know Zach had the override gear... But you crossed miles in minutes and escaped it..."
Deion looked at her before sitting across from the new girl with Yukiko in the middle. The soft buzzing and the weak beeping echoed around the room. "So what?"
"Deion, you have a peak that was so great the Executives could lock onto it. You have potential-" Deion cut her off mid-sentence as he sighed, leaning back into his chair, "The fact you think I want to go back is crazy."
The girl sighed as she flicked her pink hair, "Power and glory are waiting for you, Deion." The girl said as she stood up, "The fact that you'd still think I seek any glory betrays the true blindness that has overcome you."
She sighed, "Deion. This wasn't a request. The Executives told me that you will come back and I have more persuasive options..." She said as she turned to Yukiko.
