No Mutants Allowed

[Brendo]

Derek’s face grew pale. Biting his lip he realised reasoning would do no good to him. This was Skytzoe after all. The gun still pointed at his head. Letting out what Derek hoped would not be his final breath, he let go of the rock he was holding onto. Just as he felt the air rush around him Derek stuck his finger up at the now quickly vanishing figure.

Skytzoe watched as Derek plummeted... 10 feet onto a small outcropping below him. Skytzoe quickly holstered his gun then began climbing up the cliff. A few feet from the top he stopped, remembering the reason he was in this gorge.

Derek let out a groan as he landed on his back. It wasn’t the fall that had hurt him; it was the gun hanging from his back. After what seemed to be a couple of minutes Derek rolled over and finally opened his eyes.

“Oh, come on,” Derek said quietly. All that remained was a few twisted pieces of metal and a slowly dissolving hole in the outcropping. Derek rubbed his hand over his back and discovered that a hole had been burnt through his jacket and the skin was tender. The microfusion cells had had been destroyed on impact and burnt through his clothes. Derek tried to pick himself up but couldn’t manage to stand up. Instead he dragged himself to the cliff wall and rested his back onto the rocks.

Derek checked his pockets for some stimpacks or med-x or something that might heal the plasma burn. He had most of his supplies in his backpack which he had left in the Vertibird and that was at least a couple of miles away by now. Leaning his head against the wall he thought of what to do next, and then he saw Skytzoe. Just hanging off the rocks a few feet from the edge. Why the hell was he even in gorge Derek thought dimly.

[Mountains Near Vault 222]

Heavy feet hitting metal could be heard in the distance over the heavy gusts of hot wind with power to easily throw one to their death, the vague sounds barely implie that someone was climbing a metal ladder. The heavily accented voice seemed to call out, but the wind drowned out the sound, making him unintelligible. This incredibly insane man seemed to want blood and though it seemed he had a target, it didn't seem if he cared who else went down with his target, purely ruthless the foot suddenly hits the ground, which could barely give any footing, a few rocks slide down near both Skytzoe and Derek from a good distance away, a strong aroma soon growing close, marijuana, possibly being carried by the wind giving the illusion that this man drew closer than he actually was.

[Maxim's Saloon]

Afew people squatted near the body one actually came near, a large strong looking man wearing raider-esque armor with a childlike look in his eyes, picking the man up by the back of his rags, dragging him to the bar

"You don't look like you been here long... Nope... Definately not" The man said in a rather dull idiotic voice he couldn't be too bright, he was talking to a man "Maxy, do you haves some water for the new boy?"
"You got 40 caps?" The bartender said.
"Hammer, quit buggin' the outsider" a lean, skinny yet muscular man, with his black hair held into a pony-tail, who could whip a fly off a brahmins hide with a riding crop, without even touching the bovine, the man however forked the caps over for the giant "He probably don't want to talk with no Idjit when he recovers..."
"I didn't mean no harm Joe! Honest!"
"Just be quiet pal, maybe he'll talk later... Why don't you go feed the Cabbits?" Joe said patting Hammer on the back, referring to a mutated rabbit with 3 eyes and dual tails.
"Really?! I like duh cabbits... They're so soft an' cuddly..."
"Careful with the cuddling... Remember what happened last time?"

Sid wakes up and sees many of the same faces that were staring at him when he first entered. "where am i", "who are you" or "thank you for saving me" were probably expected to be the first words out of his mouth, but no, Sid had other things on his mind, revenge being the main one.

He quickly explained what had happened to him, his family and town in the raid yesterday hoping for sympathy, although not really expecting it. His next question was "where can i get money for weapons, and quickly? I need to teach those raiders a lesson".

Clearly still angry and not thinking straight, all he wanted to do was avenge what happened to him, his entire life was destroyed so it was understandable, but simply not going to happen, no one messes with a group of raiders on purpose.

After hanging around the bar making every sip of his water count he calmed down a bit and thanked Joe for saving his like, saying that if there was a way to repay him, he would try his hardest. Maybe Joe was on some sought of mission that Sid could accompany him on or ran some sought of business that he could help with...

"Money eh? There's plenty of things to do in Deuce, We always need Miners, Factory workers, Mechanics and such, Me and Hammer been workin' on a farm on the outskirts, there ain't much demand for that here, other than skinning the brahmin, but we get by" Joe said drawing a small cigarette pack looking fairly new labled Lucky Deuce and drawing what appeared to be a pre war quality cigarette. Striking a match on the counter he lit it offering another cigarette to Sid "If we don't have what you're lookin' for check the interstate, about a day south, it's a trading hub, I reckon you can find you just about anything off them merchants, mostly pre-war gear though."
"Y-yuh 187 probably pays well too but they ain't nice fellas, I gave dem a punch" Hammer sputtered.
"Yeah, Hammer knocked one of them raiders heads clean off, he had a pre-war chainsaw, sold it to some historian nut and we were fed for the winter... Didn't have to kill any of our livestock to eat... Speakin' of which, can you handle a rifle? We got afew spares, and those assholes hit us on the outskirts especially hard...."

Edit: I noticed I can't exactly say '{"Dey" have dialectized me into moron-speek! HELP!}'.

Skytzoe detected the smell and hear the noise of someone coming. He looked under him. He removed an arm from the cliff and slid his backpack off his shoulder. He opened a pocket, then put a stimpack between his teeth. He pulled Derek's gun from his waistband. He dropped the gun and stimpack down to Derek as he slipped the backpack back onto his shoulder, drew his handgun, and pointed it at the edge of the cliff.

[Brendo]

His gun bounced slightly on the ground by his feet and the stimpak landed on his leg. Looking up he saw the figure of Skytzoe pointing at to the top of the cliff. “What the hell is he doing? Is he trying to let me kill him?” Derek thought to himself. He let out a small sigh and pulled the cap off the stimpak and put the needle into one of his veins. A sudden feel of adrenaline rushed over him as the liquid did it’s magic. He chucked his needle over the outcropping and picked up his gun.
He turned around and looked at Skytzoe hanging from the rock. Unprotected. He raised the gun and pointed it at the chest. The held the position and lowered the gun. He shook his head and looked at the strange man. He put his gun in the holster and climb up the rocks thinking to himself, “You had better have a good reason behind this.”

((OOC: It's good to see this RP up and running again.))

Sid takes the cigarette. He doesn't really smoke but he figures it could calm him down a little more, and it seemed rude to refuse. "Well, i've not done much work like that, i just helped run a junk shop that my p..." Sid stopped, looked at the floor and took his first ever drag from a cigarette and coughed "jesus, why do people do that?".

After thinking a bit Sid said "alright, anything i can help with on the farm i'll do. What else is there to do around here?"
