"Well doeshhn't that beat all...I shwear thish shtation ish always glitchy theesh days....

Unlesh...unlesh thas jus what they want ush ta think....do I shtand here talkin to myshelf, get on that liner anyway, or get back and warn Iago?"

Cyphon turned and ran back toward his new allies. As the crowd slowly began to disperse and return to their booths and barstools�some patrons actually continued to drink while the illusory chaos had reigned outside�Thranx soon came into view standing alone, and concealing something at his side. A weapon.

Cyphon froze, wondering if this was a double-cross or something worse. Things could get sticky from here on out, especially if any plainclothes security were lurking about. It was just like an on-point military operation like Rugby to be prepared, and Cyphon certainly didn't want to be caught in the crossfire.

On the other hand, since the Occurence that wiped out a large quantity of his native universe, he felt like he'd been doing nothing but running. Drowning sorrows or biding his time, in some odd way he had found a new home. Even more surprisingly, though he didn't trust his new friends, he did wonder if he might call them friends? And if so, would it be honorable to leave Thranx alone in such a potentially bad place?

Only if it was bad place. Cyphon stood in indecision as more and more of the crowd dispersed, leaving him more and more exposed. He could just as easily die by Thranx's hands as Rugby's...he'd have to decide, and soon....
