Upon finally prying open the door to the truck, the leader saw that it was... empty. Aside from an empty capsule, and a pile of dead bodies. Seeing this the Leader furrowed his brow as he thought for a moment. "Strange. Definitely strange..." The soldier thought as he stepped back, hand on his belt where his handgun is holstered.
Scouring the area he couldn't see anything entirely out of the ordinary, but he wasn't going to just stop looking. He decided to help two of his men by scouting the area as well by circling the truck, examining for any signs of life. He has a rather solid suspiscion that there is SOMETHING in the area that was once in the trucks. After all these trucks had to be carrying something more important than just soldiers.
As this was happening, the two men who were now taking aim at the quickly approaching truck fired their weapons. The one with the sniper rifle fired at the truck's wheels, hoping to slow it down... or worse. WHile the one with the grenade launcher was waiting for the truck to get within proper range.

Among the chaos a single boy, barely old enough to call himself a man stepped out of the woods. he looked young standing at a meager 5.5 feet or 1.68 meters tall. He had snowy white hair and flawless pale skin with red colored eyes. He was wearing casual clothing with a black T shirt and baggy blue jeans with dark grey sneakers. Most notably he had two firearms. A 9mm pistol and a 44 magnum, both of which were civilian grade weapons. Without saying a word to anyone he calmly walked towards the now stopped semi truck with a no nonsense look on his face. His hands were in is pockets and his weapons were holstered for now. He wouldn't interact with anyone unless he was interacted with first, he just made his way to the truck.

The speeding truck moved just in time to avoid the sniper bullet, getting the asphalt throw some debris where the bullet hit. ("Incapacitation tactics, these guys aren't just average grunts.") Sara's focused look was on the light coming from the soldier's scope, it was that split second of twitch that made her evade the bullet.
As the truck would get im the grenade launcher's range, a figure on top of the vehicle appeared, its armor was both for defense and movility with the "ears" moving to get an idea of its surroundings. The figure drew a sniper rifle and waited for what the two were to do.

The soldier who fired the sniper rifle was a bit surprised at the truck driver's maneuver. However he wasn't letting that get to him, for he took aim once again. This time at the figure now on top of the vehicle. The supersoldier aimed his sniper a bit ahead of the target, hoping to lead the target into his next round as he then fired. Simulataneously the one wielding a Grenade Launcher fired as well at the vehicles front, hoping that the explosion will make the driver swerve out of control.
All the while the two other soldiers who were commanded to search the area were doing as they were ordered... Then they spotted something, something that could not be ignored as they saw a young white haired punk walk out of the woods. Seeing this the two soldiers took their assault rifles and took aim but did not fire. The two soldiers then screamed.
"Freeze, and don't move or we WILL shoot!" One of the two soldiers yelled.

When the soldiers aimed their rifles at Alex, he stopped on his right foot and closed his eyes. He wasnt' stopping at their request, rather he amplified the vectors from his footstep, using the waves like echo location. From this he could see all of the living people and creatures in the area. The birds in the trees and even the armored man hiding out under the truck. He could only assume whoever this was, was hiding from this group of armed soldiers.
After his short pause however, he opened his eyes again and took another step forward. "It'll be your funeral." he warned them before continuing his walk straight for the truck that the man was under. Whoever was hiding there was more interesting to him than the thugs holding him at gunpoint.

Jason had hidden under the truck so that he could safely survey the area, but when he quickly saw the chaos unfolding in front of him, he could not waste this opportunity. It seemed like everyone was distracted, so as stealthily as he could, Jason slowly lowered himself to the ground and rolled out from the truck on the opposite side of all the action. He then used the truck to obstruct everyone's view of him as he made a careful dash for the forest.

The first thing that happened by the time the Grenade launcher fired was that the pellet exploded in midair by a bullet, followed by the sound of a sniper rifle shot to the scope of the soldier firing with his own rifle. Another evasive maneuver came from the truck as the bullet aimed at the figure hit the vehicle's top instead of the target itself. "Next time you take me on a date, less explosions would be ok." the armored figure spoke to the driver.
The driver chuckled, placing a weight on the pedal, if the truck was fast already, now it was going faster by tge second, its engine roaring and getting hotter, aimed to the soldiers "You better have a good shot, coming in hot."
The blond took her equipment and opened the door, she had to be precise on the landing, or she would surely break something. With a timed jump backwards, Sara rolled on the ground, but no damage was done, meanwhile, Sam fired again to the soldiers, specifically to the grenade launcher's barrel before jumping out of the speeding truck.

Everyone wasn't entirely distracted, for the 'Leader' of this group of super soldiers was still looking near the truck Jason was hiding under. However he had turned away when the chaos began once again.
The two soldiers dealing with the truck were deeply focused on the driver, and the person on top. In fact shortly after the first grenade that they fired got shot out of the sky, they almost immediately fired another one aimed at the front of the truck. There was
no way in hell that Sniper wielding bitch was good enough to fire the 2nd grenade out of the sky so quickly. All the while the soldier wielding the sniper rifle, and the one wielding the grenade launcher immediately jumped to the side in opposite directions to avoid getting hit by the truck as it sped in. This maneuver on the soldier's part did help prevent the Sam's bullet from hitting it's mark.
Meanwhile... the two soldiers dealing with Alex. They were a bit surprised at his comment, in fact one of the two found the kid to be quite brave. This didn't make them lower their guard at all though as they took a few steps back.
"Then state your business!!" One of the soldiers called out, as the other was staying focused on Alex. In an almost... unnatural way. It was as if he was scanning Alex, All the while he seemed to be emanating some kind of heat from his body... As indicated by the steam coming from him.
The leader saw all this, but saw how his men had everything under control for now. However he did take out his communicator and contact his base. "IP-013 Reporting in, and requesting back-up ASAP." He ordered. At that moment he decided to look under the truck... When he knelt down he saw it... Nothing. There was no one there. If there was something hiding under the truck, then it must be fast as there are no signs. Seeing nothing there he stood back up and cursed under his breath. "Dammit..."
Having found nothing under the truck, and seeing how his men are having some kind of trouble he just shook his head and clenched his fist. A bit of electrical sparks flared from his hand as he began building up a charge. All the while he began to walk towards Alex. Though not with the intent to start a fight unless he has to.

As Alex was making his way towards the two soldiers, he took note and watched as they backed up with his approach, showing they had a good understanding of how to use their weapons not just for shooting but in general. The fact that they didn't shoot him also proved their compliance. They didn't just shoot any random civilian who walked by. Behind the two soldiers he saw a third, This new soldier appeared t check under the truck, only to find nothing and come back disappointed. Has the man under there already moved on? He was quick. Alex stopped again, this time on his left foot, sending vibrations through the ground. Sure enough the man was gone, heading into the woods where he would eventually be out of Range for Alex to track him. Alex didn't know what the significance of this man was, but if the government had him locked up in a truck this thick, it was probably worth investigating. Fearing he might lose him, Alex dropped his reflection for a moment, letting Network connect to his brain.
While Network scanned his recent memories and got caught up with what was going on, Alex bought himself some time in hopes they wouldn't attack him first. And that's when he saw it. the man who had checked under the truck was now walking towards him, lighting in his hands. There was no longer any question about it, these weren't normal humans. "You're clearly not with the government. And you're too skilled to be random thugs or bandits." he pointed out after having observed their work and their behavior. "So who's side are you on?"

The second pellet was also hit, this time by the driver, who had a weapon that looked more like something out of a museum, her bolt action Karabiner 98 Kurz was just releasing the casing of the bullet as the user prepared the second bullet with professional speed ("Moving target, tennis ball sized, arc movement.") she had made the calculations in record time while the armored figure was heading towards a certain soldier, being the leader marked as leader due to his equipment and signals through the radio. ("Target on sight, have to be quick.") the woman had a revolver ready and a knife on the offset hand.
Lynchwood aimed at the soldiers with her rifle, her shot being aimed to the speeding truck, the bullet would hit the gas tank, with the hopes it would ignite the vehicle in flames, or even better, make a nice set of fireworks of charred metal and the stench of burning tires.
