Father Flannigan watches everyone intently, curious to see how things will play out. When everyone moves off, he will follow, waddling with his sacristy kit in one hand and his overnight bag on rollers in the other.

Everyone: After a while it becomes clear that the national guard have no intention of coming in after you. Maybe they just stop people from leaving...
The buildings up ahead end up being warehouses for some company called "Howzer Shipping and Storage." The doors are locked, and there are no lights to be seen in the entirety of the small town.
As you near the end of the main strip, a green sign on the side of the road points the way to Dallas.

"I know I have had a very long day. Perhaps we should rest before going forward." Father Flannigan intones in a weary voice.
~Besides, I can't wait to see what happens when those two have their talk.~

"Staying here for a few hours sounds like a good idea. If anything, it gives a fallback place to scout from, once we know the area. Also, with this place abandoned, maybe we can do some 'looting' to find some better gear.
"While these are nice batons, I could use better armament, maybe a knife, or something, too. If the power is out, maybe gunpowder doesn't work reliably either. Maybe wee can also find something speedier than walking? This is Texas, there's gotta be some horses around somewhere. Or we can go all Mad Max and rig up a ... a... an autogyro or a sail-powered cart or something." Ben grins.
OOC: Once the warehouse doors are open, Ben will begin rummaging around for non-gunpowder driven weaponry more 'advanced' than the two batons. Horses are also a secondary consideration, but little chance of that within a small town, but a few bicycles should be easy to locate.

Jeremy: The door is sturdy and reinforced, you end up having to shoot the lock off.

Everyone: Inside the warehouse is an office that appears to have been thoroughly cleaned out. Only a few dirty papers litter the dusty floor.
Further inside you get to the main warehouse itself. It is filled almost entirely with chemical spill kits. If anyone wants to investigate, the crates are marked "Emergency Hazardous Spill Clean Up Kit." They contain all sorts of things:
10 pairs of thick nitrola gloves.
10 emergency respirators
10 plastic face shields
2 lbs of chalk
2 lbs of charcoal
10 red bags marked "Hazardous Waste"
10 pamphlets on cleaning up hazardous chemical spills
Assorted odds and ends for cleanup (nylon brooms and the like).
There are also a few dozen crates marked "Nuclear Radiation Protective Equipment." Inside each are:
1 geiger counter
2 pamphlets on proper use of nuclear protective equipment
2 white radiation suits, with mask
4 compressed gas oxygen canisters for the suits.
10 strips of radioactive sensitive tape, with instructions (tell you how much radiation you've been exposed to, etc...)
Other than that, this place is empty.

Ben: There is a bicycle shop in town. The door is locked, but it has a glass display window.

Making sure no one is around, Ben will grab a nearby rock (brick, large stick, or use one of the batons) and smash in the window.
"Merry Christmas!"
Carefully hopping through the glass, he'll retrieve as many mountain bikes as there people from the Humvee. He'll also take a moment to mount an incongruous bicycle bell on the one he's selected for himself, and pocket a spare bicycle chain as a backup melee weapon.
He'll also get some spare tire patch kits and a portable foot pump, as well as a repair kit and strap them all onto his bike.
Ben will then take all the bikes and prop them up outside the shop, then take his new wheels and go looking for the others.
"Hey fellas... Santa brought us wheels," Ben says ringing the bicycle bell as he slides to a stop near the warehouse.
Once he's found out what the rest have gotten, Ben will suggest they take what they can, espeically the Geiger counter and the radiation strips.
