Seras found a sheath that fit and started heading back toward everyone. "So we got him?" Seras asked, hoping she wasn't jinxing anything by asking.

Samus walked to the others with Shara, thankful for her help. She retrieved her helmet, putting it back on.
As Samus retrieves her helmet, you get back your blaster from Roland. You've felt a bit naked without it hanging by your side. However, you now do not know what to do. You have no desire to gun Seras down in front of everyone, but denouncing her now does not seem much better. You wonder if you should simply head to your ship, and find work ferrying cargo or perhaps bounty-hunting. As you think your options over, you stand silent and look at the corpse of Armstrong.
Samus noted Shara and Seras avoiding each others gazes. She said nothing, expression hidden behind the visor, not wanting to make things worse.
Out of the corner of your eye, you see Seras reloading her guns. With a sigh you turn and walk towards your ship. Perhaps, you think, you can contact some kind of government or authority to let them deal with the situation. But you yourself can't, and you do not know if that is good or bad.
[color=003399]"So... does anyone know how to get a lot of money, real fast?"[/color] Joel asked the group.
You say, glancing back at Samus, that you are leaving. You are no judge or vigilante, and you have no wish to break a group of friends apart. At the same time, you cannot stay with her. Best to simply leave, perhaps find a bounty or courier mission. Earn some money, repair your ship and begin looking for ways to get back home.
EMily wasn't quite sure what was going on between Shara and Seras, but she noted that there was some invisible tension that was best left alone for now. She addressed Joel's query for the time being.
"There was a bounty shop earlier that appears sometimes. But I don't know if it'll appear anytime soon. It advertised itself as being 'inter-dimensional'."
OOC: Gonna head out for lunch in a bit.

Intermission 2: Electric Boogaloo
[color=003399]"What's a 'bounty shop'?"[/color] Joel asked, his eyes moving from Seras to Shara as he spoke.
Samus was quiet for a second. "...If you insist. Contact me if you need anything." she said after a short silence. Samus wasn't good with goodbyes.
"It's a place where people give out rewards for capturing wanted criminals. People who are in the business of hunting down these criminals for cash are aptly named 'bounty hunters'. Of course it can highly depend on luck sometimes. Other than that, you could sell something for cash here. That's what I did to get started."
Samus stood, watching Shara leave, unsure of what to do next. She slowly turned back to face the rest of the group.
[color=003399]"Right. Do you have a way of tracking them down or something?"[/color] Joel asked.
