Hopping into the car, Vivian hopes that they can get away really quickly. If there are stragglers, she calls out, "Come on! Get a move on!"

Lex was bruised, but tried not to let on anything was wrong as Rex made their getaway. His voice was a bit strained as he looked at Reece," What is so special about this kid you came back in time to save him with our help?"

The group piles into the car as it barrels over the uneven field and the trio of strange attackers rise again and begin to pursue on foot.
Reece looks to Lex. "This kid? This kid-aw hell I can't tell you it's going to screw stuff up! Seriously, she's important! We need to get rid of these guys!"
A burst of gunfire shoots out Rex's side view mirror, the clattering deafening to him.

"$40," sighs, lamenting the obvious cost. "Ms. Reece, you are more than welcome to get out and push if you believe my car is not going fast enough. Anyone else is welcome to return fire, the windows have gunports."
Hits a hidden switch, smoke billowing out behind the car [smoke screen], flicks two others, producing soft radio static. [hidden radio, uses it for eavesdropping]

Vivian asks Reece, "Well, what can you tell us? What is her name?" As she waits for a response, Vivian checks out one of the gunports and attempts to see if she can shoot an arrow through it." She also asks Reece "You could also give us tips on how to defeat these guys. Are there any weak spots we can take advantage of?"

"Rex, relax and get us out of here." Lex said as he reloaded. He looked at Reece," Now, young lady, I just got shot by whatever those things were to help you out. Thank goodness the armor held. Now who the hell is the kid and why did those things try to kill all of us?"

"Her name is Charlotte Davidson, and she is more important than you can imagine. She's going to change the world." Reece looked down at the baby and for the first time tonight, smiled. "You are going to change everything."
She looked up at Rex after a moment. "Those things? Bio-Droids sent by....look, it's hard to explain without screwing up the future - the point is a really bad guy sent some killer robots to the past to try and kill this baby, isn't that enough?" She turned to Vivian. "Weak spots? I don't know, if I did then maybe Sanjeev and Ahn -" she winced. " - my friends who went to the time machine to try to stop this before it started - I don't know if they're dead or alive. I don't know if I can go home. I don't know about weak spots. I'm sorry I'm making this up as I go along, but trust me when I say, any hope of a good future? Depends on keeping this baby safe."
As Rex turns on the radio, he hears a crackle. "Primary target evaded. Switch to Secondary Targets."
Reece shouts. "Ah dammit! We need to find the Davidson farm!"

Vivian looks at little Charlotte and wonders how this little girl is going to change everything. 'She looks like an ordinary little girl to me.' Vivian thinks to herself. "I guess the Davidson's are her parents?" Vivian frowns, "But the Davidson's don't have children."

"We know enough now. Reece," Lex's voice calmed as he was ready now, "anything you can tell us about these killer robots will help. Otherwise we pull the same stunt there. Distract the tin cans long enough to get the targets clear. I'm guessing this little Charlotte is gonna be raised by the Davidsons in your time? You know what, don't answer that. We'll save them regardless. Rex, we need to beat them there. I know you're pushing it, but a short cut or two would help if you know any."

Rex realizes he's gone off course pretty quickly when he sees the ravine coming up ahead.
Reece responds. "The Robots are all connected, but they can swap parts, so you really have to destroy them all or they'll put themselves back together out of parts of each other. Weak parts are probably the joints and maybe the eyes."

"Great. Self repairing machines. At least there is only the three of them, right?" Lex asked, paying little attention to Rex's driving. He patted his scattergun, "This and Vi's explosive tips will do a number on eyes. They can't see us, they cant stop us, right?" He tried to hide the fact that he was actually struggling with the whole situation. Machines that look like people? Travel back in time from the future? That was all children stories and hard for him to believe.

Vivian grins, impressed when she realizes that it is possible for her to shoot an arrow through one of the gun ports of Rex's automobile. "That's great!" she calls out to Rex. Vivian then wastes no time in shooting another arrow at the robots, aiming at the head.

Rex's quick turn threw off Vivian's shot. The arrow exploded as it impacted the robot's shoulder, peeling away cloth and flesh and revealing more metal.
Reece responded. "Yeah, only three!"
Looking out the back gun ports, you could see the attackers fading into the night as you sped away...
