Jarred approached the table, standing to the side, watching to see it played. He noticed the little kid standing to the side, wondering what on earth a child was doing on this ship, let alone out in the open like this. He shrugged, resigning to watch the game.

Haldis glanced back at Jarred and briefly stuck out her tongue before turning back to the poker game. She leaned onto her tip toes so she was close by Arix's ear. "The man with the funny hat is going to cheat." She whispered. "He has cards in his sleeve."

"Thanks." He whispered back. Well that sucks... But then again, I can work this to my advantage. Though it would have been nice to win it all. Arix waited for the cards to be handed out.

Arix was handed a hand with a couple of 8's, a king, a jack, and a ten. Haldis continued to watch from over his shoulder, humming a quiet tune under her breath.

Arix kept the hand, his plan wouldn't be needing it anyway. Instead he just waited, watching the man Haldis mentioned.

The betting started around the table (a quick reminder to all of you, I've never played poker with anything besides oreos....and I made up my own rules when I played it, so anyways...). The players kept their eyes on each other, but the man in the hat was rather sly, switching the cards out of his sleeve with skill.

"Get ready to disappear." Arix whispered to Heldis, continuing to let the man go about his switching until he was about to put his cards down. "Cheater" He yelled as he reached across the table and grabbed the mans arm, ripping his sleeve and revealing the hidden cards and taking his watch. "******** been switching out cards all game."

Haldis grinned anxious for the action.
The players turned on the cheater, the dealer pulled out a blaster, while the cheater pulled out his own blaster, diving to the side and firing at the other players.
Haldis clapped her hands as blaster shots zipped through the rec center.

Amidst the gunfire, Arix grabbed the card and a few credits from the table, then ran. "shitshitshitshitshit"

Haldis grabbed something from the table herself, and ran after Arix, her white hair flying up behind her as tried to keep up. She was grinning happily at the blaster noises behind her.
The man with the hat hit the ground with a blast wound to his arm, but the rec center had already turned into a blast zone, as the tension between civilians, bounty hunters, and prisoners started to burst. A couple shots fired in Jarred's direction, because he was just standing there, and ED thought she'd give him something to do.

Jarred moved the moment the man pulled a gun, pulling one of his own as he quickly moved through what he knew would soon be a brawl. He wasn't disappointed. He took down any aggressors with a mix of hard punches and bullets, risking peeking over the heads of everyone to get an idea where he was. Through a chance parting of bodies, he saw the little girl, holding something to herself, and running. Jarred turned his movement to her direction, holstering his gun and weaving through the people, staying back enough to avoid notice.

Haldis stuck the small cloth bag into a the pocket of her white jumper, seemingly unaware of Jarred as she ran out into the hallway.

Jarred sidled himself up against the wall next to the door, peering out into the hallway. He kept an eye on the fight, moving his head to the side, his eyes processing the bullet before it could reach him, allowing him evade it. He waited till the girl was far enough out, then quickly left the room. He took a moment pause to have Sara seal the door behind him. Something big was gonna have to rip the door off, or it wasn't opening for anything. He then took off after her, keeping himself as silent as he could manage.

Arix arrived at the bar, which apparently had been locked down since he was last there. "Wow, wasn't expecting ti to get that bad."
