Father Flannigan gives Adrian a wry smile, "Yes, that is a shame my young friend."
After returning the feathers to the box, and securing the lot under his arm, Father Flannigan returns to the Humvee.
"Off-Road sounds like a capital idea to me. No reason to endanger innocent bystanders."

Jeremy rolls his eyes. Offroad! I thought we'd just drive up and ask to get in. Nevermind that little mix-up back there, sir. We didn't mean to kill your National Guardsman. What was up with that tactical nuke, by the way?
"Off road, it is."
Jeremy revs the engine and then starts toward Dallas.

Jaque hears murmering out between the Father and Adrian and strains his ears to listen in.
Listen 33 = 20 rolled + 13
Jaque hears the statement made by Adrian and it sets his mind in motion.
The feathers... there is something about them... I had better keep a watchful eye on them. One can never trust spellcasters.

Everyone:
You drive off the road and out into the flatlands. It should take about 45 minutes to an hour to reach the Brownout from here.
Jaque and Jeremy: You both notice activity on th horizon across the road you just left. It looks as though multiple vehicles and helicoptors are converging on a single point over there.

Jaque chuckles.
"It would seem they are looking for us yes?" Jacque says to everyone in the Humvee, then continues a little sarcastically, "Or our special feathers from a nameless source."
Jaque smiles wryly at Adrian and Father Flannigan if it attracts their attention.
That should let them know I am on to them, maybe give them the impression I know what those feathers are. I wish I did...

"It is only a matter of time before they catch up with us. Perhaps we should 'step on it' as the Americans are fond of saying."
Father Flannigan pointedly ignores Jacque's remark.

"Actually, I'm going to slow down a bit."
Jeremy shuts the headlights off and slips his night vision goggles over his eyes.
"It's harder to drive with these, but at least we won't have the risk of them spotting our lights.
Jeremy keeps the speed down, reasonable enough to drive without too much difficulty off-road and with night vision goggles rather than actual light.

Everyone:
All is quiet for about an hour and a half. The onboard computer beeps, displaying a wall of nothing on the radar...the Brownout is less than a mile ahead.
Then, without any warning, it's as if day has come. Lights from behind flare up and a loudspeaker anounces:
"Unidentified vehicle, you are in direct violation of Emergency Defense Act One-Three-Three-Nine-Seven. Immediately stop and exit the vehicle with your hands in the air. If you do not comply in 10 seconds, we will be forced to fire."
The lights behind you resolve into the headlights of three vehicles, and the searchlights from two blackhawk helicopters.

Jeremy flips off the goggles and turns on the headlights.
"Unless you guys have a better plan, I'm getting the hell outta here. If we can get to Dallas, we should be safe."
He floors the gas. A smile lights up his face.

"This is what I'm talkin' about! Hey, I wouldn't mind if you guys would throw up some covering fire."
