OOC : This is my first shot at this, and I'll be writing it in very small pieces. Please give your comments about it, I think I can use some help at this.
"Damn it's hot" thinks Ramone while he wipes some sweat off his forehead. Ramone started wandering some two weeks ago, when it happened. He was gone to the city for a few days, to trade. When he got back to his farm, his brother and sister were gone, and the place was thrashed. Because there was no reason to stay (the cattle was gone or killed, and the well was wrecked), he started wandering in hope to find his sister and brother back.
"I never should have started on jet" he says to himself "It only makes it worse". In an attempt to forget his problems, he tried a cannister of jet when he was in New Reno. It worked, for a while, and then he realised they gave him the jet to get him hooked. Now he walks around like he's on pot 24 hours a day, and he feels a brahmin stepped on him.
In the distance he spots a group of two men. They see him, and they start heading towards him.
"O shit, that better not be raiders. I've only got one full clip of .44, and because of that jet addiction, I can't stop shaking." So he tries to run away, but the traders/raiders catch up on him easily.
Ramone decides not to take chances, and he takes his Desert Eagle and points it in the direction of the men who are now about 10 meters away.
"Halt ! What do you want ?"
One of the men answers him with gunfire. Ramone shoots at him 2 times, and hits him in the chest with one bullet. The man falls to the ground and stays there. Ramone tries for the next target, who is wielding a spear, and the man freezes in his tracks.
"Drop that spear !"
"Put your gun down !"
"Who the hell are you ?!"
"I'm a trader, and you just shot my guard"
"Oh, shit"
"Doesn't matter, I'm a half a day from the town I'm heading for, and now I don't have to pay him". I didn't like that guy too, too trigger-happy. He shot three potential customers. Hey, are you headed somewhere particular ?"
"Err, no."
"Whould you come with me to that town ? I'll pay you $25."
"It's a deal."
And so they head off to Redding.
