Will strolled along the road in the middle of the seemingly endless desert vista in the wastelands. He had wandered this way south ever since the cataclysmic final battle between the CND and NTA a few months earlier when Max had been killed. It had been a long trip. He didn't even know why he was wandering this way, he just had some strange urge to. He readjusted his rifle's sholder strap, and opened a pouch on his belt. He took out a weather beaten spyglass. He started scanning the immediate way west and east for any sign of civilization. All he saw was desert scrubs and a few mutated lizards scampering about. He sighed, and starts to check out the south. Suddenly, he noticed something. It appeared to be a long chainlink fence with several holes cut into it. He looked along the fence until he sees something more interesting. It was like a gate with several tiny buildings set up around it, and a roadblock sealing off the border to cars. Will's glance fell on a sign.

U.S/Mexico border

Will knew what the U.S. was. It was what this land had been called before the war. He'd never heard of Mexico before though. Excitement rose within him. A whole new land to explore. He started jogging briskly towards the gate. He arrived there at noon. The buildings were really small, and empty. They obviously weren't houses. There was a sign on each of them, something about presenting a passport to the guard. Will checked out the sign again. He saw some extra words messily, and nearly illegibly written on it now.

Al Amerecans-Sta owt of da sovern teritore of Mexico.

Santa Anna II

Will shook his head. No one was going to keep him out of there. He wondered who this "Santa Anna" was. The ruler of the area? Will figured he'd find out soon enough. He saw some smoke coming from over the hill to the southeast. "It must be a village." He whispered to himself." He started heading towards there. He crested the hill, and his eyes came to rest on a tiny farming village. Men and Women strolled the streets lazily, and it looked like several chickens were walking the streets as well. His eyes searched for and immediately found what appeared to be an inn. He headed towards it. Several people stared at him, but he paid it no notice. He walked into to inn. A couple of travelers were also in here, gathered at a table. Will squinted at them. They seemed to be familar. Could they happen to be people he knew?

OOC: Do you mind if i join in on this too.

IC: Fang had finally decided that if he couldn't find his squad where he had previously been he must look somewhere else. He knew area 51 was somewhere near the border so he decided he would go there and look. He knew one member of the squad had an interest with the place known as "Mexico" he was their historian, the one who held nearly all the knoledge of the Pre-war people. The rest couldn't undersatand it but he would probably have jumped at any chance to visit what fang recalled he had once said. He said that there was something important there. He told a tale once of the loutenant who was killed by a BOS friend known as "The vault Dweller," he told Fang about a perilous journey south and the mutant monster stopping at a hiiden base. Apparently there was a destructive device here even more powerful and deadly than a nuke. He intended revenge. Apparently he had deiscovered a way to spread FEV inot the air supply of all the vaults. He had found a system of pipes known as the "Vault pipes" which were accidently revealed by a militery group known as the "Enclave" Knowiung this was all very well but Fang didn't even know if it was true. Yet this brother seemd interested in the device which could spread the FEV and also wipe the surface clean of life. Aparently it had other properties as this brother wouldn't have been in it otherwise.

This paticular day Fang had arrived at an inn, it was here that he made a great discovery. The next step in the right direction. Definetly. He encountered an old friend.
"Comza, is that you?"
"Fang," Replied another man. Everyone there looked up at the re-union.

"I have something urgent to tell you Fang," Said Comza "You know that tale i told you, the one that probably helped us run into each other well"
"Well..."
"It's true, I found out a weak ago, Mutant patrols are storming everywhere. This is a terribele crisis but we have a chance. If we can get together a small unit and maybe infiltrate this base we could find that device..."
"I knew it," Replied Fang
"Ohh and save the world at the same time"

Their conversation was loud and wod soon spread of the immnent invasion.
 
Will looks carefully at the people at the table. It was too dark to see them properly. The only light came from a few laterns strung from the ceiling. He decided to go rent his room for the night.

Will walked to the desk and tapped the innkeeper on the shoulder.

"Hey buddy. How much for a room."

The innkeeper looked up at him.

"What you have?"

Will reached around his pack for a minute. He found what he was looking for.

"You want this old watch? It's called a Rolex."

The innkeeper took it, examined it, and seemed satisfied. He handed Will a key.

"Room 4"

Will nodded, and went to sit down at a table. A local came up and asked if he wanted anything. He asked for a beer and some brahmin burgers. The local returned a few minutes later with his order. Will licked his lips in anticipation of his first real meal in weeks. Suddenly, someone burst into the inn, very weary looking. Will looked up to see who the hell it was.
 
Aleho: give me a Beer someone *he stumbles to the desk and gets it aahhhh.... that was good..... he pays for the beer and sees a big figure in some strange armor he loked quite heavy* (thinks for himself) i'll have to get to now that guy a that poverfull man could help me free my town....
Aleho: to the big guy (fang) hi man who are u....
 
"name's Fang stranger. Hey you need help you aren't looking to good." Fang draws a weapon just in case

"We don't have much time Fang," His friend urges. "We need to get to a base. The mutant base where the lou is. We don't have time for this, We have to go." he was getting incresingly persistent.
 
Aleho: (thinks quiet) "he seems to be realy powerfull i'll better get on god foot with him and then..... and anyway i have nowwere to go...."
Hey are u going somevere u two does u need any help i am quite good with guns and such......
 
The Raiders

ooc-everyone feel free to join at any time.

Will watches the two men in the corner talk. Both look like combat vetrans. He figured they might be bandits or something. He began to chow down on his brahmin burger. He cleaned his plate, and washed it down with a beer. He felt better than he had in a long while.

Suddenly, a bell started ringing. A woman's voice could be heard over the din.

"The Caballos are coming!"

Will grabbed his rifle and ran outside to see what was happening. He heard a sound like thunder. He noticed several villagemen running with pistols and rifles to a log barricade nearby. He looked at what was beyond the barricade. His eyes looked on unbelievingly. What he saw was twenty or twenty five raiders that were riding some strange animal. What were they called. Horses? One of them gave a wild rebel yell, and his men began to charge the besieged village.
 
RE: The Raiders

Fang emerged from the building with his friend cozma. fang raised his Solar Blaster and took aim and fired. He charged towards them slowly and carefully trying to at leat knock some of them to the ground. That would give them the advantage. Fang suddenly heard a noise and turned round. Several men also on horse were chargeing the opposite direction. They took fire and a raging battle started. the soldiers looked like Fang's fellow Brotherhood. "This'll even out the ods a bit," He whispered under his breath
 
RE: The Raiders

Aleho: *he had been sitting when the others run outside but as a flash he notices something happends....*
SHit
*he takes hes shawed off and checks the ammo and then he draws a 10mm Pistol and runs towards a window he sees a Man on a horse he aim through the window and blasts the closest the enemy to hell with a well placed shell and then he dives out from the window and takes gets up on the horse okay u little motherfuckers..... he turns around seaking a victim.......*

OCC: Horses are quite usuall in alehos homeplase thats way he has the right skills.......
(And pleas fang u kow wath i dont want to much of.....)
 
RE: The Raiders

IC: Fang continued to fire as best he could against the still charging enemy. He was supported by the arrival of troops behind him. He turned and looked. They had power armour displaying the brotherhood symobol but they only had light weapons. He counted eight. One had a missile launcher, one a plama rifle, one a minigun and one a flamer. the rest looked to have solar pistlols. They continued to fire. The mingun and flamer were replaced by spare pistols as they didn't want to hurt the local residents. Several of the enemy fell to the ground as Fang and his brotherhood continued to fire.

OOC: Sorry i know that nobody likes high tech or too much of average tech or me introducing the Brotherhood every few posts. But it does open up quite a few possibiltes at having a diffrent sort of cultered Brotherhood.

what the hell

Max was sleeping in one of the biuldings. He heard gun shots.
Max- What the hell!!!! oh shit!!!
Max saw several Brotherhood members, and several raiders fighting.
"All i wanted was some peace and quit!!!!!"
Max grabs his sawed off and .223 pistol and left the biulding. he ducked behind some rubble.
"ok, max, lets try not to screw this up, dont want to piss any one off, at least not now"
Max saw one of the raiders, he was trying to use one of the civilians as a shield.
"not today!!!"
Max ran in back of the raider and tapped him on the shoulder, the raider turned around. there was two sounds. Max hitting the raider and the raider hitting the ground.
 
RE: What the hell...

*Greven talks into a small handheld radio, he is at a remote Texan outpost near the Rio Grande* Greven: Mutants, in Mexico! Thats impossible!.... Damnit, guess I won't be goin' home for quite some time... So, some town in Mexico seems to be near a suspected mutant base?... Alright, me 'n Lt. Rodrik will go check it out. Greven out. * As Greven hollers at Joe(Rodrik) to hurry up and get to the Cobra (a Texan attack chopper), a grunt runs up and hands Greven two desert eagle pistols, and an ancient but deadly looking H&K MP-5 SMG.* Alright, lets go! *OOC- The town im goin to is the town that the raiders are hittin, who ever posts next may as well say i arrived durin the battle*

Aleho: who was that???

OCC: i couldnt resist to have it happening at the same time max.....
 
RE: What the hell...

ooc-Max, I thought you were dead. Oh well, here I go.

Will shoots his rifle calmly and precisely from a prone position, picking raiders of their horses with lethal accuracy. A burst of minigun fire makes him keep his head down. The situation had gotten real confusuing, real fast. A helicopter started firing rockets at a group of raiders nearby. Will gritted his teeth, and tried to move carefully to a new, less exposed position. Then he saw someone. A person he tought he'd never see again.

"Max?"
 
Back from the Dead

OOC: I was just about to explain how im back.
Max fired his guns at every angle. He saw the helicopter. He dodged into some rubble.
"AHHH!!! my leg"
Max looked at his leg, it was still damaged.
"A little Help!!!!"
 
RE: Back from the Dead

Will runs over to Max. Without asking any questions, he grabs Max, and carries him on his shoulders to the safety of a nearby building. Gunfire is still everywhere, but one question is more pressing on Will's mind.

"Max? How did you survive?"
 
This whole time an unshaven young man (wearing a worn trenchcoat with two revolvers at his hips) has been sleeping in the local bar. He awakens out of his slumber by the sound of the chaotic gunfire going on outside of the bar. While regaining his bearings, a barrage of high-caliber bullets fly through the bar window. (Most likely from a minigun burst that has gone on an unforeseen path). Instinctively, he pulls out his revolvers and crouches. Looking around, he notices that the threat is not in the room. His horse and all his possessions are in his shack on the other side of the city. A decision arises that he will sprint to over there, grab his stuff, and leave. He swiftly stands up and kicks down the closed door, while holding revolvers in combat position. He notices the chaos going on outside. He sees raiders, the defending townspeople, the BoS, and a …what the hell…a mechanic bird (helicopter). He was amazed at the flying steel bird (helicopter) which he had never seen before.
The first step out of the door he takes, a raider’s horse almost runs him over. The horse bucks up and in that split second, the unshaven man fires his two revolvers in an adrenaline pumping fashion. The horse falls backwards with the raiders falling with it. The raider gets crushed and the horse starts kicking from the pain of 12 bullets (six bullets per revolver) in its bloody body. The unshaven man spins around to see what’s behind him. He sees several raiders firing at him from aways. He dives to get behind cover in the adjacent building.
OOC: This is my first post on the board and I spent a lot of time writing this post. I hope I did well. I tried not to make a super character that I know you all hate. Please give me suggestions.
 
OCC: it looks great in my opininon, and by the way u are welcome here....*asks the others* arnt he???

Aleho: *he dives out from the door to get the girl the raider tried to take away... he gets near and says* GET BEHIND ME Back into the house!!!.... Aaarghh!!!! *a shot goes stright through his left shoulder and aleho sees a raider with a sniper rifle on a horse a bit away.... ALeho tries to to draw the shawed off But he isnt fast enough another shot hits him in the chest... and he spinns around and falls down int the door opening with blood pumping from his chest and he got a real Black out.....
