Patriot just stared at Shadowshock like they were some sort of idiot. Talking at regular volume when Tesla was making as much noise as a full blown construction site over at the other side of the road. He shook his head and took a deep breath "Uh, hey buddy! YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO SPEAK UP!-" He was immediately cut off by the sound and sight of an explosion far off, with the wall of flame and smoke being visible all the way where the crew was. "What the fuck..." He said to himself, utterly shocked by this happening seemingly from nowhere. Looking over to Tesla, he gestured for the robotic doctor to cease everything he was doing.
Tesla of course didn't need such a signal considering he was already looking over to Patriot, and the sound of an explosion pretty easily cut through the noise to him.He began setting the downed power line pole to the side, safely away from the road and nearby civilians. His hulking frame then moving quickly over to Patriot and Shadowshock. Making sure to move any other debris from the car crash away from the road on his way over.
A look of puzzled awe was in Patriot's eyes while he looked at the explosion. Like it was something he wasn't expecting to see since he left his service in the Middle East or something. Shaking his head as he heard Shadowshock's near rambling on the situation that's developing, and looking between them and the cloud of smoke rising. A bit of a groan coming from Patriot as he began fiddling with his radio. "Yeah no shit, dumbass." He responded harshly over to their new teammate, finally tuning to police radio frequencies. It was ablaze with chatter on what just happened and where it could've been. "Oh fuck this shit's really getting serious, they're saying it could be a possible terrorist attack... Shit. Wasn't expecting this shit for another year or two..." he looked between Tesla and Shadowshock "Both of you, back in the fucking truck. We're going in." He walked back to the truck, banging on the side for the Driver to open the back once more. While tuning his radio into TIAMA channels. "This is Team Charlie, we just got a back row seat viewing of a fuckhuge explosion in the Bronx. We're on our way to give relief, but we're about ten minutes out. Over."
Tesla was quick to get into the back of the truck as soon as those back doors opened up. With patriot following soon after, still fiddling with his radio. The two sitting down in the back and signalling for Shadowshock to get in. "Hurry the fuck up!" Patriot yelled out, clearly ready to get the Driver to floor it as soon as those doors shut.
