Rex smirks, "Straight shot, why not. Hang on." Pedal to the metal. [105mph top speed; 3x faster than any other car out there currently]

Lex quickly pulled on his armor and gaunlets before getting into the Packard, chuckling as the elder man clouted Matt. He looked at Vivian as Rex floored it," You could have rode with Matt," he smirked.

Vivian doesn't react to Lex's comment and smirk except to shrug. She's surprised by how fast Rex's car goes and she remarks, "You really weren't kidding about how fast your car is, were you?" As she waits for a response, Vivian wonders why Lex keeps pushing her in Matt's direction, especially after she'd talked to him about it. 'If it's supposed to happen, just let it happen.' Vivian thinks to herself.

The Parkard races down the road, leaving Matt in the dust as you barrel towards the field.
Reece smiles. "OK, not bad at all. So...uhm...what kind of weapons do you all have at this point?"

(To Vivian) "It's how Mr. Colt seems to be everywhere. Designed and built this thing myself. Haven't had time to design new weapons Reece. What I do have, does the trick when applied right."
Gives the steering wheel a thump and twist, Packard still going straight, nearly inaudible *thunk*, back seat floor raising three inches, disgorging a laid out costume, two .38 Browning 1910s, .45 Thompson (unloaded), and a bolt action rifle with scope. "I'll need to change before we get into it, but what I have here is free to use. Except for Mr. Colt's costume, he'll need that."

Vivian looks impressed when she sees the costume pop out of the back seat floor. 'That's pretty nifty!' Vivian thinks to herself.
Vivian looks at Reece with a puzzled look and can't help but ask, "Do you not know anything abut this time? Do they not have records about it where you're from?" Vivian doesn't understand how someone wouldn't do as much research as possible if they were from some advanced time as Reece seemed to be from.

Lex had to agree with Vivian. "What you see is what you get." He said, his armor on, his .45s holstered and his custom built shotgun standing between his knees with it's buttplate to the floor. " Sorry, none of any fancy light guns or whatever you usein the future."

"Light guns? Seriously? Seriously?" Reece sighed. "And while I've heard stories about you since I was little, I don't exactly have your full wikipedia histories memorized down to what you were carrying around all the time every year." She looked at the weapons you had. "Well, if it's what we got, it's what we got. I just hope it's enough."
Rex is driving on the field when he sees a ball of fire descending from the sky towards their destination.
Reece looks up. "OK...wow...uh....wow."

Vivian's eyes widen when she sees the ball of fire and she gasps. "What in the world is that?" she wonders aloud to everyone in the car as they head toward it.

Reece smiles back. "Not of this world at all. Not at all."

"Well you don't see that everyday." Lex said flatly, looking ahead. " Rex, can you get any more out of this thing? Young lady," He looked at Reese," I suggest you tell us everything you can, right now." His tone went low, more how he tended to speak with criminals, not allies.

To Lex: "Three times faster than anything else out on the road. If you can get more out of this car, please do so."

Rex brings the car to stop just at the edge of the impact crater. Their wartime experiences inform Lex and Rex that the crater was too small given the size and speed of the meteor...
...unless it slowed down before impact somehow.
Reece sprung out of the back of the car and sprinted towards the meteor. The rocky outer shell cracked and shattered, revealing a golden metallic egg, perhaps no more than 10 feet in diameter. The egg in turn began to open like a flower in bloom.
There was a baby - perhaps a year old - a girl with deep green eyes looking out at you behind long dark locks. She crawled towards the group. Reece was in awe, her voice cracked as she tried to speak. "Oh...oh wow...."
And then there was the sound of thunder. The flash of light.
Three men in dark clothing with sunglasses carrying tommy guns marched forward.
"Oh crap! It's them it's them!" Reece rushed for the girl. "Protect the baby!"

Vivian frowns at Reece, not understanding why she was smiling as they raced to the field. She is about to say something when the meteor hit. When Reece gets out of the car and sprints toward the meteor, Vivian grabs her bow and arrows and runs after her, wondering what was going on. Vivian is shocked to see a baby. Vivian just stands there, staring dumbfounded until she hears the thunder and sees the flash of light. "What in the world is going on?" she exclaims out loud to no one in particular.
The appearance of the men with tommy guns spurs Vivian into action. As Reece runs for the girl, Vivian pulls one of her explosive arrows. Knocking it in her bow, Vivian runs for cover so she can get a clean shot off. As impressive as Lex's arrows were, Vivian didn't stand much of a chance against 3 guns if she didn't find cover quickly.

"Blast!" Snatches up the Thompson and 30 round magazine, loads it, using the car as cover. <Admire meteor later. Hostiles now.> |
