Chapter 3-Ross Time!

((Here's Chapter 3! 4 and 5 will be huge chapters, I'm so excited. Tiffany will be out of the way after that. ;) Also that's a drawing I made for the story. It'll make more sense when you read it....go ahead now...))

          The sun was warm, and the backpacks were heavy as you three trudged toward an abandoned street of houses. You all had walked three hours or so to get there, so you decided to sit on a bench for a while. The three of you talked, drank water, and ate some snacks. Midway through your conversation, a couple figures approached.

"Hey, give us your caps." The man demanded. He pulled out a 10mm and aimed it at your forehead. His friend pulled out his too. You looked to Adam and Ross, noticing them tense up. A couple minutes of silence passed and the guy spoke up again. "I said gimme your caps, dammit."

"Of course. But first, Adam. What time is it?" You asked, glancing at him on your left.

He smirked. "I'm not sure, hey Ross. What time is it?" You glanced over at Ross. He put his hand on his gun and leapt up toward the man who held the gun in your face.

"ROSS TIME!!" He shouted. He hit the man in the side of the head and Adam tackled the other one. You stood and grabbed the pistol from the main man then shot him a few times in the stomach. Both men were down in just under a minute.

You found about 50 caps on both men and a few stimpacks. Once you took the men's things, you decided to split up and enter the houses.

you walked up to the house you chose, and pushed the door aside. Walking in, you observed the wrecked area. All walls were still standing, but the inside was a mess. You walked around and searched the kitchen  for food, not finding much. Then you searched the upstairs rooms, finding a few useful things like first aid supplies or some pillows and blankets.

Returning to the street, you found Adam and Ross chatting about their findings. You joined them and checked a few more houses before heading back toward the tower. The sky grew dark and you became aware that you three were out all day. You approached the tower and smiled, happy to be home. Upon entering, your team greeted you. You told them about the men who confronted you three, and told them what you found in the houses. Ross was even able to crack a safe and retrieve 200 caps.

After story time, Max walked up and asked about the men you met. "Were you scared?" He asked.

You thought for a minute, then smiled. "No, I had Ross and Adam there. Nothing would have happened." You replied. His eyes narrowed.

"No fear at all?" He clarified. You rested a hand on his shoulder.

"Max, my fears disappeared long ago. And besides, what's the point of teammates if there's no trust?" You said. His eyes softened and he smiled a little. His cheeks were tinged pink and as you brought your hand to your side, your cheeks warmed up too. He looked adorable when he smiled.

You took a few steps back and you almost turned around to leave. "Oh yeah, training starts tomorrow." You said, leaving to turn in for the night.

                         Until next time.......
