Avgust watched Sauron and Scythe with little interest as he finally caught their attention. Seeing how poorly they handled the situation so far, (the fact he still had a pistol was a bit concerning) he knew it wouldn't take much convincing. He started his reply: "Hundreds of years ago, there was a battle during the bloody Great Patriotic War. Stalingrad. There was a simple protocol put in order to motivate Soviet soldiers against the Germans. The no step back protocol. The order was simple, shoot anyone attempting to retreat from the main line. It is my order to kill traitors, lets say. Am I betraying the greater cause if it is what I am supposed to do?

"I am not. Indeed, comrade Scythe and Sauron are. They are trying to incite disorder against the existing chain of command in order to seize control and hurt our City. Sauron is mentally incapable of making decisions for anyone, especially when he uses his own delusions to capture me."

Avgust paused as Sauron tensed, he continued. "I believe that you will find that Sauron fabricated these files, seeing how they were created after the fact when he broke into my jumpship. In fact, most of my data is Vanguard encrypted. You will find that these files are not encrypted, and are infact crudely fabricated. He didn't even spell my linage name right under my signature."

Sauron moved closer to the cell in disbelief, as Avgust continued on his roll. "And this, me being a traitor? I believe you will find it very unlikely. I only shared information with the Vanguard, and this was before Sauron breached my ship and manipulated my files. My Ghost will be sending that proof to you now. He claims I was going to leave you to die, when those who were with me on Europa knows this is blatantly false.

"Sauron, I don't care what game you are playing, but you are distracting our cause. If you won't focus on the actual threat of Enxor and instead place your concern on your delusions, then I might as well head back to my ship and head to the remains of Ceres, with those who actually want to stop a threat."

As the Vanguard stopped, files would appear on everyones HUD as it would confirm what Avgust said. Sauron's files didn't match typical Vanguard encryption, and were created after the fact that he broke into the Outrageous Fortune.
