The train was rumbling and was a bit of a bumpy ride. It rode all the way from the dessert witch held dust bowl and made it's long journey. It hissed as it finally began to make it's stop in the train station that was close to empty. It came to a full stop with stream arising from the pipe. Then a few ordinary people made their way off the train. Soon, The last person to step off onto the side walk and bend their head from the exit was the BLU teams new assassin. She was holding a sack behind her back and took a view of the place with a frown.

Eric watched the side walks bustling with people pass by them as she tapped impatiently against the dashboard of the car. Trips to the little town felt like the took hours, even though according to the clock it was only 45 minutes. Psh, clocks, what do they know about time. The seemingly endless car ride finally came to a stop near the town train station, where they parked on the side of the road just outside the entrance. Before the car even completely stopped Eric unlocked the door and jumped out, eager to stretch her legs. "This sniper better be fucking grateful we came to get her," She commented, stretching her arms high above her head, "When I got here all I got was a fucking cab."

"...Really?" Ian responded as he calmly removed the keys from the ignition and pocketed them. "I was uh, escorted in a van." Stepping out of the driver's seat and closing the door gently, he began to look around the entrance. The time was mid-afternoon without a cloud in the sky, so the sun beamed down and intensified everything in sight. The Medic placed a hand over his eyes to put them at ease. "I guess we should start looking, then."

After a few steps away from the halted train she looked up at the clock that was placed on the far wall. It was about mid afternoon and she gave a brief sigh for being two minutes late. While thinking about how terrible the train system was, She checked out her things on a nearby bench real quick to make sure all of her things made it with her though the ride. Everything as there as she intend to be. Her orders were given to find two BLU assosites to escort her to the new base. She did not see them anyway were.

Her arms dropped to her side and she turned her head toward Ian, frowning. "An escort? Man, no fair!" Eric shook her head, "Whatever. Yeah, we should look for 'em. I hope they're holding a sign or something." She slammed the car door shut and shoved her hands into her pockets, surveying the station. There were a little over a dozen people leaving, they probably had somewhere in town they were going to and didn't need cars, or they would take cabs. There were less people hanging around, one of them hopefully being their new teammate. She slowly made her way toward the entrance, not really sure who to look for.

Ian snickered at Eric's jealousy, but didn't play off of it. He was too busy scanning the area looking for someone who appeared to need a ride. He saw the Scout advancing towards the entrance without him, so he shuffled along behind her.
"Just uh... look for someone with a lot of baggage, or something." He suggested as they reached the station doors.

Her eyes looked around. Not entirely sure what they looked like or how they knew she was her. Now sitting down on the bench with her bag next to her she began to wait for them. Looking left and right like a hawk she looked for clue on people's faces. To see if they were searching for someone. Or if they looked like military fit.

"Well, I suppose we could do that," she paused in the entrance, narrowing in on a tall woman perched on a bench. "Or we could just ask the first person we see." Eric approached her, noticing a sizable amount of suitcases stacked next to her. "Paaaardon me miss, but would you happen to be waiting for a ride?"

"Wait--" He tried to stop her, but she'd already run off towards a lady seated on a nearby bench. Shaking his head, Ian followed after the Scout -- standing diagonal to her once he caught up. The woman did seem like she was new here, being surrounded by luggage and everything; maybe the two would luck out with the first person after all. At least he could hope so.

The woman's eyes darted at the scout and doctor. From first look, She could tell that they must be from the base. She stood up and looked down at the scout. "Why yes, I believe you two are the escort I presume?" She looked over them and started to look them over to make sure they were who she thought they were.

She nodded. "That would be us. Welcome aboard Builders League United, also known as a low security asylum where patients are given weapons." Eric gestured the way she and Ian had came and continued, "The cars back this way."

Ian coughed to clear his throat. "I'm Ian... and this is Eric. Nice to meet you." He told the woman politely, trying to smooth over the Scout's remark. "Do you uh... need help carrying your bags or anything?" He added while looking up at the Sniper. It was then he realized just how much she loomed over the two -- towering at least a good foot above them. Trying not to look too shocked, he was relieved that she was joining their team, and not the opposing one.

"It is nice to make your acquaintance." She showed no emotion and turned around to pick up her baggage from the bench seeming to try ignore that quirky comment but had rolled her eyes. "I am fine with my own luggage sir. Thank you for asking." Her bag slung over her shoulder while she looked back at the clock that hung in the train station. Before leaving she handed her hand out for a business-like handshake. "Taiki Akako at your service."

Eric stared at the hand and shrugged, not taking it. "Nice to meet you, I guess." Her initial enthusiasm at meeting the new recruit was quickly fading. All this waiting, and for what? Another chick that's probably just gonna sit around her room all day. God fucking dammit. Keeping her thoughts to herself, she turned and began to lead the trio out of the station, making sure to call back to the sniper as she started to walk, "Make sure you got all of you're shit. It's a long car ride and I don't want us to have to turn around halfway through the trip." She figured it was something worth saying, considering after her arrival to Rouge River she herself had left one of her bags behind, forcing the cab driver to glare daggers at her before turning back. Needless to say, it wasn't a cheap ride by the time she arrived at the base.

Habitual from growing up, Ian gripped Taiki's hand like a gentleman and shook it. Then, scanning the area around the bench, he detected no more luggage in sight. "Sawmill's about... 45 minutes from here." He informed the woman they were escorting as he turned to follow their now-departing Scout. She seemed nice enough, or at least polite to people she's just met. It was certainly a welcome contrast to Eric... if the Sniper decided to stick around, anyway. Maybe the two younger teammates would finally have another person to converse with every once in a while.
