Hondo: Oklahoma is just as bad. You want to take the unstable ice queen south we need to go around tornando alley.
 
Hondo handed Jeanette her bag, then took his and followed Fernando

Well the cowboy, like the red man, you had to leave your land
You can't raise your stock and plant your crop in the gumbo and the sand
Greed disguised as progress has put us to the test
They won't be glad until we're gone from our home out in the west
It's sad to see those good old days replaced with greed and doubt
Soon we'll leave the country, the campfire has gone out
Bid 'em all adieu, you can't turn the world about
The cowboy left the country, the campfire has gone out

"We can go either East or West to avoid Tornado Alley when we head South. Going East will add a couple thousand miles and a few weeks to this trip. Going West may save days and miles but only if it exists. Much of that area is tens if not hundreds of feet under-sea level. If the Gulf of California flooded the low-lands into this area, we wont be able to cross it with all that water in the way." Fernando throws in.

"According to the maps Moro gave us, we're driving through Kansas." Being from Texas, Jeanette knows Hondo and Fernando have a point. She turns to Moro. "Do you have a meteorologist in your group?"
 
"We have people observing . . . no."

Hondo spoke yo Fernando after they left the group.
 
Hondo: Ya know how I told Ya I met my supposed future family here. Well the said south- west is gone. I have a map in the camper. Only way to safely get ' round tornando alley is east. Through Nebraska, Iowa,then down coming into Texas from the east. Crossing the Mississippi would be best but I the map shows that it damn neat has the US cut in half. Your call, but we are not gonna have fun any way we try.

"Considering the miles and direction we driven, from the Salish Indian territories, which around in the Northern Montana and Idaho borders, we should be in the Absaroka Range around the tri-state area (Idaho/Montana/Wyoming). It's the only area that matches the rivers in this area. If we head south, we can hit Interstate 80 and go across Wyoming into Nebraska, and into Kansas and Oklahoma - which we are trying to avoid. We would need to keep going East into Missouri and maybe past that as well because of Elsa being with us. The problem is Tornado Alley extending East as we go South." Fernando says to both. "Either we go West and follow the new coast South to West Texas or We go South - Southeast and into Tornado Alley directly and teach Elsa to control her powers before we get there or else hundreds of people are going to die because of her powers being out of control..."
 
Fernando hesitates for a second with a half-hearted gasp of a laugh, "All this shit for a stupid bus in Kansas. When is the cost of human lives and their property worth less than the energy to teleport an empty bus to Texas...?"

Hondo: not sure what posses me off more. That they would risk lives for a bus or that they think we we're hurreled through time and space to deliver a bus.

"The bus is available if it is needed. If the party does not need it, say it is not needed." Moro says after the gentlemen left. "Instead of worrying about problems that don't exist, focus on what's real." Moro sighs. She does not understand this logic.

"Jeanette, do not get my anger confused. I am not angered about 'The What,' in this case, about the bus. I am angered about 'The Where,' 'The How' and 'The Why,' in this case, where the bus is, how to get is without getting anyone hurt in the process and the not teleport it instead of driving it?" Fernando begins, "With Elsa constantly generating this cold weather, we move into the vicinity of Tornado Alley in this time of year, the expression of her power against the warm weather down there, there will be tornadoes in the area and there is nothing that can be done about it other than to avoid the area to keep everyone safe. Moro wants the bus, then she has to get it herself without Elsa or else Elsa's expression of power will create tornadoes and people are going to get killed. If these people are rebuilding, then a nicely placed tornado will destroy all their work and they have to start all over again. Do you really want that? I don't. And therefore Elsa can't go with Moro to get the bus and if the Spirits are not willing to spend some energy to teleport a bus in order save a few hundred lives, then this trip is not worth doing."

"I know tornados are a very real problem." Jeanette does not understand why it took this long to get to the real problem. "Why present a laundry list of problems that are easy to fix when we should have gone directly to a problem that can't be fixed?"

Hondo just walked to the Bronco shaking his head. These spirits that claimed to be a superior race that had been around for a while had no clue. Jeanette's party seemed to be just following blindly. Seemed like the blind leading the blind.
