Buying Power

*Samus Aran is not a woman to cross. Where others make threats, she makes statements of fact. Where others warn, she acts. And where others play a cautious, sensible game of Monopoly, she gambles big on her first time through and comes out the winner by luck alone

Ali answers the door, wearing the red and silver vacsuit Samus had given her and surrounded by goslings who want to give Samus a hug before her "big adventure with mommy". And then they run off, because it's time for their music lessons. Ali doesn't know who gave Morty that trumpet...

"Hello Samus! I'm ready to go, unless there's something particular I should bring?"

*The children receive hugs--scary bounty hunter or not, she has a soft spot for children--and shakes her head in answer to Ali's question.*

I see you've got your vacsuit, so no.

*She fishes a slim tube out of her carisak, handing it to Ali.*

You'll just need a dose of this before we go. It's a chemical immune-booster, not the genegraft vaccine from before.

Ali looks at the tube after she takes it from Samus. "Okay. Um. How?"

[onemorebounty]

Ah, right.

*She points to a flat place one the side of one end of the tube.*

Hold that spot against the big artery in your neck, and push the button. It should tingle a little.
