He didn't even consider hitting the brakes or turning once. He had his orders, and if Erik needed this to happen he'd make it happen. And as chaotically and violently as possible, too. The van had picked up a fair amount of speed now, and he wasted no time pointing it directly at the vehicles ahead. Meanwhile he nodded to the thermokinetic beside him. He didn't even know the guy's name, but he got the job done.<br/><br/>As soon as he was given the nod Jack, the thermokinetic, knew what he was meant to do. He lowered the window on his side, raising up his palm and focusing. The temperature in the cab dropped rapidly, frosting over some of the glass a little. But the aim of his powers was a fair ways away. Underneath the tires of the police cars black ice began to form, causing two of the four cruisers to spin out off the road almost instantly. The others lost all speed and had to drive at a crawl, before he pushed his powers further and almost completely froze their fuel pipes. The cars surrounding the other police van were all left in the dust, with the officers in them getting out and taking cover cautiously.<br/><br/>Then Jack turned his attention to the van carrying the real threats, once again raising up his palm and dropping the temperature from a blistering heat to sub-zero. The wheels of the target van struggled a little but the weight helped it to keep heading forward, just with less control. It began to veer along the road as the captain struggled to keep it steady, heavily shaking around everyone in the back with a loud crash.<br/><br/>While Jack did his job excellently Sabertooth just smirked and kept flooring it, heading for a direct collision with the other van. An accident he would easily survive, but one that would likely kill or concuss most occupants of the other vehicle.
