Cecil really needed to find some way to recharge his battery if he was to continue on normally without becoming a burden to them, knowing that the man could recover at any time and be right on his way to try and find them. He didn’t know who the man was or what he was helping his friends from, but it was definitely a matter of urgency that he’d try out his own weaponry without killing the man. He wasn’t entirely sure what he did or how he did it, all he knew was he had been helpful and managed to get them out alive. Resting his body against Ethan he did try to make it easier on him by having his arms moving at an equilibrium as to not throw him completely off balance.

Cecil remained quiet in his powered down state as Ethan took him up the hill, his eyes only opening when they finally reached the top. He wanted to see what the place looked like, how the town was and whether there was anything that would make him want to remember this place. He still had energy to store information and when it was something like a town. He was fascinated by settlements, even if his last experience with one was largely negative. He didn’t hold it against them that he was like that, he didn’t mean to cause any harm. Staring over his Ethan’s shoulder he watched the people up ahead, wondering just why they decided to live up on a hill like this. Maybe they were afraid of what was down below and needed some way to view up high and see where everything was.

Now probably wasn’t a great time to be thinking, instead he had to be conserving energy and hoping thinking wasn’t going to end up having him completely drained. He was already having a hard time speaking so thinking wasn’t going to help whatsoever. While he didn’t know what they might do now, it was probably still worth having a look around and trying to see if there was any sign of someone who might be able to help him, someone who might know how to fix Machina who were drained. There was probably going to be the problem of someone else knowing he was a Machina. People didn’t appear very friendly concerning Machina, they seemed to get scared and retaliate with violence and threatening his life.

Keeping quiet whenever Ethan spoke to other people he only stared tiredly whenever they were questioned, frowning when the possibilities were only shattered when they denied any possible knowledge they might hold for Machina. It was all turning out to be full of dead ends, one after another. Feeling a little down he closed his eyes momentarily, hearing Ethan pull all sorts of questions out in their confusion before he decided to speak up. “If you c-c-can’t find a place, just-t-t go on without m-m-me”, he spoke, his speech stuttering with his weakening power cell, “You n-n-need to escape”.
