[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Jun-22-00 AT 05:46AM (GMT)[p]The firefight erupted without warning. Quinch leaped off his bike and shot out a few rounds from his '44 as he sprinted towards the nearby boulder.

"Seems your car is a real bullet magnet!" he yelled, and peering obove the boulder shot one knifed highwaysman that was charging at him.

"It isn't even mine!" Ratcatcher shouted back, sounding almost amused, as another of the raiders before him screamed and fell in a cloud of dust.

"Run for that cave!" the highwayman leader called to his men, realizing this was this was a lost fight. As he and his men ran towards the cave, Quinch aimed carefully and took another of them down before slowly emerging from behind the rock, his gun still trained toward the cave.

"Wanna go after them?" he heard Ratcatcher say.

"Nah," came the Caesar's voice. "They're not worth..."

"AAAAAA-" A scream came from inside the cave, not a battle cry, but a desperate scream or someone who rounded a familiar corner to see Death swing its scythe at him.

One of the surviving raiders staggered out of the cave...

"Who..." Quinch thought.

... blood gushing from his arm, almost severed from his body....

"No, what..."

... as shapes moved in the darkness of the cave, low, almost unearthly growls, mixed with sounds that few of those who have ever heard somebody's flesh and bones torn from their bodies ever forget...

"Here...?"

...and moved into the light, the fading light outlining squat figures, creatures from someone's nightmare, one of them carrying what might've once been a human body impaled on its giant claws...

"Oh no..." he heard someone's voice whisper as he popped another clip in his gun, almost numb. And he wasn't sure the voice wasn't his own.

...throwing it away almost with disgust, and looking at him, razor-edged teeth on its small head red from the dripping blood...

"Deathclaws."
 
Ferago had been wandering the wastes for a couple of days on his way to New Reno looking for some good bountys. He hadn't been traveling 2 hours when he heard some guns shots and yelling up ahead. He crouched down low moveing over a small hill in front of him. He saw some men standing near a cave. A raider staggered out of the cave his arm bloody and hanging from his side. Ferago winced at the site. He kept his head down pulling out is desert eagel. Then another larger figure came out of the cave it was driping with blood. It took a moment but Ferago relized it was a deathclaw. He had never see one before he had only herd stories, but the stories didn't do is justice. With out warning some thing unexpected happend.
 
OOC: The message above this one is my first try sorry for the misspelling hope I did good.
 
A virtabird flew over Ferago's head and stoped just behind the three men. Two michine guns on the vertabird pointed down and begain shooting. The deathclaw rips appart and the guns stop. A man in advanced power armor leans out of the side door holding a rocket launcher. The man shoots a rocket at the cave entrance causing the cave to fall in on the rest of the pack. The virtabird lands and the man in the power armor walks over to Ratcatcher. "You okay?"
 
Whoa!

Rat-catcher, who had been slamed into the groud by the explosion of the rocket, got up and dusted himself off. He scanned the area for quinch and ceasar and noticed they're still in one piece. Another man stood in the backgound a desert eagle in his hands.
A voice spoke from behind him. "You okay?"
"Yeah, except for those elephants tapdancing in my head. That was *one* loud explosion." Rat-catcher answered still staring at the collapsed cave entrance and the deathclaws that wre now reduced to some bloody pulp.
Then it struck him. The mechanical voice: undoubtly power armor, most likely MKII! In an instant he turned around and aimed his gun at the armored figure. He knew if it came to a fight his bullets would only scratch the armor but there was always a change that...
"hey wait a minute, didn't he ask me if I was okay?" Rat-catcher thought.
Might this be someone he knew in his enclave days, someone who had escaped the destruction of the rig?
"Do I know you?" Rat-cathcer inquired.
 
crud

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Jun-24-00 AT 08:11PM (GMT)[p]Ferago had never seen any thing like this flying machine. He new that the man who had steped out of it was an Enclave solider wich made him even more worryed.He had some "bad" encounters with the enclave before. He wonderd if they where all members of the enclave. He then relized that one of the men had seen him. He quickly put his desert eagle back in the hulster and ran back the way he came. Ferago didn't get far when all of a sudden he saw some thing move out of the corner of his eye. It was to late. He felt a sharp pain in his leg and he fell down. It was a snake. He pulled out his gun and blew its head off. He reached in to his back pack.....no stim packs! He could feel the pain climbing up his leg. Then the pain became to much and every thing went black.
 
RE: crud

OOC: Okey everybody! The Enclave has been destroyed my myself, KIlroy and Rat-catcher with a little help from the Chosen One, so no post about "the evil Enclave" because they're DEAD!
 
RE: Whoa!

"No, I was in Navaro most of the time. When it was trashed by some guy in a blue jump stuit, my sqaud and I started an Enclave resistance there. I'm here to take you to Kilroy."
Rat-cathcer: "How do you know him?"
The man open up Rat's PIP Boy and pulls out a chip. "It's a monitering chip. It alous us to see at everything on your PIP Boy screen."
 
Dreaming

Ferago woke up in a dark room. Every thing seemed to be in a weird haze. A door opened behind him. He stood up and faced the door. There was a figure in the door way. It was his long dead father and his old dog Enzo.
Ferago's dad: Ferago don't worry Iam here to help you.Your not awake,this is a dream. Don't be afraid of the people you just saw. They will help you.
Ferago's father shut the door. Ferago yelled out for his father but he could not speak. The room went dark again. Ferago hoped that when he woke up someone had found him. He laid down on the floor and every thing went black again.
 
Hmmm...

Monitoring chip, huh? Well glad that thing's gone." Rat-catcher replied.
Rat-catcher walks to his car and hid it behind some bushes.
"I hope Chosen doesn't mind if I park his car here for a while" he said. "Okay lets take that vertibird to New st. Louis. I assume you know the coordinates since you can monitor his PIP Boy too."
Rat-catcher said goodbye to Ceasar and Quinch and entered the V. Bird.
"Hey 'armor man'," Rats said to the guy named bob, "mind if I fly?"
Bob nodded and sat down next to rat-catcher.
"The name's Bob."
"Mike" Rat-catcher replied.
The Vertibird bird took off heading east.

(OOC: This will be continued in 'the stranger' by kilroy!)
