"Yeah, just because it's the stuff he was carrying doesn't mean he was carrying it when he died." Mariana says. "I mean, there might not even be a body 17." She says heading to them. "Now, help me find it, and you can puke in your helmet when we're done."

Sam nods at Dyson sympathetically "That's fine, Dyson. You can wait outside." To Mariana and McCain, she says "You can wait with him, if you wish." Sam then heads over to the bodies are to look at them in order to determine if one of them is, in fact, Shep.

Dyson gave Marianna a dirty look, then nodded to Sam and beelined it for the door.
It didn't take long for sam to find number 17. A quick look at the face told her all she needed to know. It wasn't Shep. A cursory glance at the others revealed none of them were. Number 17 instead was a burly guy with a weather beaten face and a permanent racoon look from wearing sunglasses.

Mariana let's the head of number 17 unceremoniously drop. "Some how, I just knew it would be someone else. Do we confiscate the items, Ma'am? Or leave them here?"

Sam sighs, and a small part of her isn't surprised at all when she sees that it's not Shep. She repies "We confisgate the items, Mar. We'll bring them back with us."

" Well, is it him?" Dyson shouted from the doorway.

Sam goes out to where Dyson is waiting and shakes her head. "No Dyson," she replies quietly, "It wasn't Shep."

Mariana starts pulling off the armour, looking it over for clues and pockets. "Now, we figure where Shep really is." She grunts, lifting the plate off. "And how it is he hides his weight. Look at the gut on this guy." She says.

Dyson came back in, the color returning to his face and he stepped up to Mar and looking at the stuff for a moment. " His C-14 is missing, and there's no personal stuff except this." He picked up the knife Mar had given Shep and looked at it before handing it to her hilt first. " you think maybe this was a message for you? Why else would someone use it?" He looked at Sam. " I mean why would he use that instead of a vibroknife?"

Taking the knife, Mariana says "I don't know what he was thinking. I'm not that kind of psychic. If he wanted to leave a message to me, he would have left me a message. If he wanted to get off scott-free, he wouldn't have used this knife. As to why use thise knife, well, for one, it won't evapourate your neck, and so makes for a better show. Maybe someone found out it was the knife that killed his torturer and thought it would be poetic but didn't realise it wasn't Shep."
She turns the knife over idly looking for etchings or anything.

Sam shakes her head with a sigh. "I have no idea. The only thing I can think of is that he might be trying to return something to you that was originally yours, Mariana."

" Torturer?" Dyson looked at Marianna, puzzled. " What are you talking about?"
The knife is still blood crust, both the blade and the handle, but the middle is clean as though it came from two different sources.

Mariana tosses the knife heedlessly into the crate with the other gear. "It was Shep that did the cutting. He knew not to use the bloody side." She says, with a grimace in her voice. "We'll have to wait to find out who the real corpse is, won't we?" She asks, looking at Sam.

Sam nods as she grabs an evidence bag and carefully places the knife inside. "I also think we should get the blood on this knife analyzed. Hopefully it will give us some clues."
