One creature holding a rifle - looks like an older model civilian semi-automatic rifle, the same as the other pony Silver saw earlier. It is in the form of a pony, leaning out of the edge of an open door at the pump house, some ways away.

Silver aims down the scope towards the creature, and squeezes off a couple of rounds.

Medical: Silver immediately kneels down with his medkit and tends to his son's wounds.

Silver sees that Spectral Streak has been shot in the neck. Fortunately, it's off to the side, missing any major arteries, the spine, and (mostly) avoiding the windpipe. He is breathing oddly, however. The bullet has gone all the way through.

This may be time for the vials. Spec's neck wound is certainly serious enough to warrant it.

Does he have a needle in the medkit? If so, he injects it into his son. If not, he'll have to get Spec to drink it.

"This will only hurt for moment."
Silver puts the contents of the vial into the needle, locates an artery in/around his neck, and stabs it into his injuried son.

Spec winces. But as Silver injects the liquid, he can see, in more or less real time, the wound slowly sealing itself. Spectral Streak's breathing becomes more normal.

"Still like being kicked in the neck" He barely croaks out, and then coughs. "But better." He starts to stand up

A grape-green earth pony opens his mouth, and seems very nervous. But the off-white pony Silver talked to before speaks up.
"The valves to the flare need to be turned on, and the feed needs to be turned off. The valve right here needs to be turned counter-clockwise."

It's rather hard to turn
Off-white pony
"The flare needs to be turned on."
Green pony
"No.. no no, the flow needs to be turned on. The flare, it could be dangerous."

Silver stands up once the valve is turned.
"I do not know anything about this, we need you to figure this out."

"There is too much pressure, and too many units off line. The gas must be flared."
Green
"No... That's wasting the gas, and an open flame is dangerous. Just turn the valves to send it along to the next units."

"I do not much care about wellbeing about gas. What is danger that open flame could do? Is it worse than oil plant exploding?"

However calming this barn could be to her, the suspense from just waiting, thinking about what could go wrong or what went wrong already, is harrowing. Amber stays in one place, still listening and waiting for nightfall, as there is nothing better to do.

Looks like my schedule has cleared up. I got lots of time whenever you do.

At the risk of retreading an event that has already happened
No birds, no cows outside. Just a single sheep "bah" from beneath, and further away, the sound of an automobile door closing, and griffins talking

"Well it's... it's an open flame. It could cause the plant to explode. If there are any gas leaks." He presses his teeth firmly together, and lips pulled back. He is nervous, anxious, or otherwise frightened.
The other operator speaks
"What are you talking about? The flare is a hundred and fifty feet up. No gasses will come near it, and any that do will be long dispersed."
He is in a relatively more excited state.

Blue pony:
"It's just how the units work. It's the normal process."
Off-white pony:
"If the units are shut off or the valves are closed there will be a pressure build up. And if any stray bullets have caused leaks, that could be even worse."

An automobile? This can't be good, it may be unwelcome visitors. Amber listens intently to make out any words the griffons are saying.

"You think they are here? Where is the automobile?"
"It was here, the neighbor said so."
"Farmers will say anything for a few fractal guilders."
"He described the automobile correctly, even the damage on it. There are not many of those here."
"Well where is it?"
"Do your job and look for it. You would not be so lazy if we were looking for the princess."
Third voice:
"The princess may be out here. That may be where they were going, for all we know."
The second voice again:
"The Princess only a few miles from the castle? Hiding in a barn?"
Third voice:
"If the princess is as lazy in running away and the Katerinberg police as lazy in finding her as the lot of you are, I would not wonder at all."

Amber's feathers and fur stand on end as she hears these words. The Inquisition is hot on their trail and they'll find the car quickly. More importantly, they'll know to search the house–and the barn– and Amber had better warn her friends there.
Is there any way for Amber to get to the house unseen and unheard?

At this point, Silver is frustrated, and worried about the state of the oil plant if these two can't figure out the correct course of action.
"So, there is chance either option could start fire. And neither of you can agree on course of action together. So it is up to me, and it is not any fault of mine if things go wrong with my decision, yes?"

In order for Amber to get to the house unseen and unnoticed, she would have to:
Exit the attic, and then the barn, unnoticed
Run across the open area between the barn and the house, unnoticed, and
Enter the house, unnoticed
Amber really doesn't have any reason to believe this is impossible right now, but she knows they are outside, and she does not know if they are already in the house, or even the barn.

"No no, the flow needs to open!"

Hmm, three checks at minimum. With so little information available to her, save that she needs to hide, she does so. They'll certainly search the barn, the question is whether she's hidden enough?

The attic is... less ideal that perhaps even a standard residential attic in that it is largely clean, and there are no boards at the edges by the sloped-roof. There is still the stack of straw, the large metal device, a number of what seem to be livestock blankets, and a few other items.
