The news that Karis gave to Jason would have been disturbing to most. Grenade launchers were not exactly something that were friendly. Though the outside of the vehicle was safe, even from a grenade, if one managed to make it in either his hole or hers, they were going to have a really bad day. "I am not really sure, I never made it that far into Protector training to know all the weapons they used on the outside." He spoke into the microphone. "If that is the case though, we need to get in now, we will be safe, thick plated armor on the outside." Jason wasn't going to wait for Karis to confirm or deny anything. He grabbed the hatch and lowed the seat all at the same time. He shut himself in, and also cut off most of his vision. Now he was very limited to the front, and a little bit to the left. He could see nothing to the right side of the vehicle at all.<br/><br/>He could see the forest quickly approaching as the first explosion was heard on the outside. That confirmed the suspicion about whether they had grenade launchers or not. A few more explosions sounded, some hit the back, others hit the sides. It wouldn't surprise him if they tried to knock the tracks off, or break them with the grenades, but that was not likely. While Jason didn't know how durable the tracks were, those would have been his choice of target as well, they could take a single shot, it would take two direct blows to the exact same spot to break one. At the rate he was driving that would be hard for those who were behind them.<br/><br/>"See I told you it would hold up." He spoke into the headset once more. He still was unaware of whether or not Karis had jumped inside. His ears could only hear the roar of the engine, the explosions, and nothing more. Jason just kept his foot down on the gas pedal and drove like the wind as the M577 headed into the forest, the terrain become thing and slight, the vegetation underneath full of wood and other things he couldn't see well.
