    "What the Hell are you talking about?" asked Kendra. 
    Erin smiled. "Allow me to introduce myself, _I_ am Erin Mills 
version 2.*6*. And I'm afraid I must leave you now..."
    With this, before anyone could act, Erin 2.6  pressed a button on 
the remote and vanished in a similar blast of yellow light.
    "...no...stop him..." Erin 2.5 gurgled as his life's blood began 
to run out. The others crowded around him, not sure what to do.
    "...reality stabilizer...deactivated..."
    The rest was silence.

Stargazer is very confused adn angry right now.  He decides that nobody is
leaving until he knows what is going on.  He uses his ability to track any
'port from one of its endpoints to the other to determine where the other Erin
went.  He then 'ports him back, and uses his 'porter to set up a blocking
field that surrounds Panda and all the other bounty hunters, blocking all
'ports, no matter if their tech or magic.  "Nobody is leaving until we have
some answers here.  I don't care about the rules of the Hunt, I'll burn down any
body who tries to leave.  Once things are cleared up, we can conttinue the hunt.
You two,"  He points his cannon at the 2 Erins, "How do you fit into all this,
and why are their two of you?"

A faint rippling of the nearby background announces the arrival of 
Kergma, having been unseen since his little trick with some tires and an 
illusionary wall.  Unconcernedly, he stands at the edge of the dock in 
his businessman guise watching a speedboat vanish into the sunset 
carrying Panda, Vixxy and Saffy out of the (slightly rapid) clutches of 
the Bounty Hunters.

"Well, as they say in the movies here, 'Thats all folks'"

Immediately a clamour arises from the gathered Bounty Hunters, mostly 
about 'Panda's still free!'

Still facing away from them, Kergma replies, "Looks like Saf and Vixxy 
got him.  Finders Keepers and all that."  An offhanded gesture breaks 
Stargazer's teleport shield and another forstalls the latters immediate 
attempt to teleport to the boat.  Turning, he looked each of the Bounty 
Hunters in the eye.  "This Hunt is over.  Return to your normal occupations."
