Editing Atlas (section)

===Post-[[Slaughterhouse Nine]]===
When Skitter and [[Ballistic]] were sent in to deal with [[Parian]], Skitter was captured by Parians friend [[Flechette]]. She brought in Atlas as a stop gap measure if she wasn't able to to convince Parian to leave Brockton Bay or join the Undersiders. Eventually, Atlas was spotted, alarming everyone present besides his master.<ref name="15.6 e1">I directed Atlas in through an open window. Every set of eyes was on Flechette and I, which made it easy for him to slip into the room. My bugs had identified tripwires Parian had set, and navigating Atlas around them wasn't too hard.<br><br>"Stop it!" Parian cried. For a second, I thought it had to do with Atlas, but her shout followed within a second of my question to Flechette.<br><br>Flechette looked like she'd been slapped. I stopped Atlas where he was, poised a few feet behind Parian. I folded his scythe-like claws down and out of the way. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/11/03 Excerpt] from [[Colony 15.6]]</ref>

The Undersiders' former benefactor made sure to remove Atlas from play when it came to betraying the team.

He was eventually found and returned to his master, just in time to join in the fight against Echidna, where Skitter had him land and use his scythe limbs to attack and to form flanking maneuvers with [[Weld]].<ref name="19.5 e1">I stood on Atlas' back as he descended to the road, shaking my mask to let the glass fall free before carefully pulling it back on. Weld glanced at me and nodded as I appeared at his left, helping to form a defensive line.<br><br>Weld's hands started to change into long blades, and with the reach they afforded him, he was able to defend more ground.<br><br>I stepped off Atlas and let him stand on his own, his scythelike forelimbs raised. He wouldn't be ''that'' good in a fight, but the clones were fragile, and two more weapons was better than nothing. My knife and baton slid free of their respective slots in my compartment, and I whipped the baton out to its full length. It offered me a little more reach, an excuse to take one more step away from Scapegoat's body and the frozen Tecton. In this fashion, Weld, Atlas and I formed something of a triangle. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/03/05 Excerpt] from [[Scourge 19.5]]</ref>
