Said Lara, the young woman who shadowed the handsome guy, Ben.
"We need to create a diversion to help her get in." I said impatiently. I have been alone for so long, I was no longer able to work within a team.
"But we can create a nearby explosion that would distract the Cybers and keep us intact. This doesn't sound like a smart plan."

"I think we are way out of our league here. Why don't we meet your friend and discuss the plan together?"

"My friend is not ready to meet anyone yet."

"Aren't we all on the same team? Don't we all want the Cybers gone?"
