Josh Adams was driving down a dark two lane county road. He had all of the lights on the van on, including the spot light on the roof. It was pointing at the power lines that were along the side of the road. "Mark." He said.

Noah shut the laptop down and slid it into a backpack. He stood and worked his way into the passenger seat, and buckled his seat belt.

So far their only expenses had been the gas they were using and the food they were eating. As they turned back onto the state route, a sheriff's deputy was heading toward the road that they had just been on. "Looks like someone noticed us..."
