"All right," she says,
"I'm feeling gracious right now, so I will choose to believe you at this moment." Elena lowers her pistol; however, she doesn't put it away.
She looks around the room, still wary of the man called Charlie and the tall unnamed stranger. She takes a step back and her foot bumps against something. Elena looks down and sees her carbine laying on the ground. Realizing she must have missed it in her initial glance around the room, Elena crouches down, pistol still in hand, and slings her carbine over her shoulder.
She stands back up and turns back to Charlie and the stranger. Elena's gaze finally lands on a still figure on the floor.
"Who are they?" she asks.
