Akihiko had to admit to himself, the Clanner wasn't like any that he fought before. He did fight for a short time during the Invasion, but he was part of the cleanup crew and most of the Clanners that he fought were in the Clanners terms,<em>solahma</em>and they were eager to die for the honor of their Clan. It is why he respected the Clanners, even though one Clan was responsible for decimating Turtle Bay.<br/><br/>He did his best to dodge her shots, while firing his weapons to disable her 'Mech. He was surprised when she suddenly powered down and when she said that she surrendered, he nodded and said to her. "Very well... Mechwarrior Hatsune... in according to your customs I, Sanada Akihiko do hereby claim you as my bondswoman and your Mech as<em>isorla</em>. You will come with me to the God Eaters dropship with me, and we can see our financial controller to decide what I will do with you there."<br/><br/>He then waited for her to power up her Mech again and he slowly brought his Mech to a gentle trot towards the Dropship and said to the COmm. "Amamiya-san... this is Akihiko. Please prepare two Mech brackets, one for my<em>No-dachi</em>and for a Clan Mech that I have gained as<em>isorla</em>. Also its pilot is also my bondswoman... I shall see you in the office of the dropship with her. Please tag the Clan Black Hawk as friendly, and please advise the staff that the Clan Mechwarrior is under my protection. Akihiko out."<br/><br/>
