OOC: Fisher? Most Wanted? ... Yeah, okay. Sounds resonable.

Fisher was too angry with the boy, with Slade, and with himself to think of anything else. He flipped his hand at Slade and blurted "Whatever!" He then sank into his chair and resolved not to speak again to Slade for a while.

Blaze coughed. "Uh, this just occured to me ... why doesn't Streak just write Charger out of danger?"
Dave slowly shook his head. "No, guys. It won't work."
Art snorted. "Oh? We've seen what she can do, and you know better than anyone here what she's capable of. So why won't it work?"
Dave couldn't explain that it wouldn't be fair to everyone else working on the story ... but then realized that he didn't have to. Aside from that, there was something more practical.
"What if Charger is out there fighting someone, or in captivity, or whatever, and then bam, he's gone. Wouldn't that arouse more suspicion? Make people think he's got powers he doesn't have? Or conspiritors? It's really not smart. And," he continued, cutting off Blaze, who looked ready to say something, "we know that it's dangerous for Streak to mess with people's memory. Because if people get the feeling they knew something that they were forced to forget, it'll cause more problems."
Art huffed. "Sounds like a lot of bullshit."
Dave huffed back, mocking the hunter. "Sounds like I'm being ****ing sensible."
Streak: "That still doesn't answer the question of how we'll get there in time."
Dave lowered his head and furrowed his brow in thought. After a few moments, "I guess there's no reason we can't use Streak's power to create a direct, clear route from here to DCO. We could drive there as fast as possible without any traffic or twists or turns or anything. Any objections?"
(OOC: Before my characters respond to this query, I'm gonna let others decide if this sounds feasible)
