"Anyhow, I don't doubt other people, and neither do I doubt your choice of action. But you must understand that the priority is getting myself out of here, not befriending other 'Users' and their 'Companions'. Remember, the larger the group, the higher the risk of getting spotted and attacked by hostile beings. Even if this is a safe zone I don't completely trust the Orchestrator and his words."

Cybrax had even managed to pick out a flaw in Juste's words as he spoke them. "Getting you out of the Game is the final goal, I agree. The one thing you haven't taken into account is the fact that we have no means of escape. Therefore, our only option is to survive in the Game until we find a way for you to get out. Teaming up with someone would increase our chances of survival greatly." He carried on walking without another word, allowing Juste to consider the advice.

When they'd got back to the clearing, his User told him to take care of the talking. "You realise that you will have to speak your part if they are to trust us. Besides, we are a team, are we not?" Cybrax then stomped into clear view of whoever was present in the local area. Some of them could have moved away in search of Challenge Gates, as he and Juste had done, but there might still be a couple of them here...

"We do not mean any harm. We are here to discuss the situation of... well, of the Game in general. If anyone has managed to find additional information, we would be willing to exchange our knowledge." To make sure that nobody would doubt the call of a ceasefire (not that any fighting had actually started in the first place) Cybrax holstered his laser. In hindsight, Juste was probably going to have something to say about including him in the speech. He would just have to deal with it. They were going to be here for quite a while, so it would be logical to be on good terms with at least some of the other Users in order to minimise the chances of having them point their weapon at you while your back was turned.
