Fallout 4 is just around the corner guys and girls. so come on! lets keep this RP moving!

@Pripovednik you're up!
After ducking down behind the debris it wasn't long before things started to go sideways. His energy level was down to critical levels and his luck had decided to roll him a set of snake eyes it seemed. apparently the person out by the buss had friends of some sort, and it wasn't long after he dove into cover that raiders began to rush his position. He saw a man come up towards him, the old bug eyed antenna helmet that some raiders seemed to be fond of caught his attention. Running the numbers in his head John didn't like his odds even if the man was poorly armed and armored. where there was one raider, there was always more lurking just out of sight. John upholstered his weapon and readied it at the man when a bullet whizzed over his head and smashed into the raider's armor. Just as he was about to pull the trigger as the man broke into a run he heard another gunshot. long pipe rifle by the sounds of it. John shook off the secondary processes bogging him down and just focuses on the target in front of him. Pulling the trigger once a flash of solid light erupted from the lens of his Custom WATTZ magneto, lancing straight through the armor the man was wearing and out the other side. he could see dust in the wind behind him coming from the man as bits of him atomized from the laser impacting him and rending his armor. as he pulled the trigger again he heard that janky pinging boing sound come from his pistol. the small energy cells inside the pistol had seared and misfired so to speak. he had the equivalent of a jam for energy weapons. Pulling back a slider and wrenching back an auxiliary casing John worked on "clearing the jam" as quickly as he could. but quickly wasn't fast enough.

Just before the raider could lunge at him with a bat with a cleaver welded onto the side of it, the raider went limp and fell to john's feet. John's sensors registered a logic error in this. he had not killed the man, but yet he was dead. Overriding the error John would rip out the faulty battery and shove it into his pocket quickly before looking to his belt to see if the light was green or red. luckily enough he saw a green light showing him that the battery he had been charging was full. One by one he'd remove the small energy cells with a clicking sound and insert them into his pistol's battery chamber. his middle finger flipping the firing selector from single to charge. he could still hear the sounds of weapons going off, but the time for hiding was over. someone was giving him aid and it was time to return the favor.

Looking down to his pipboy he'd arch a brow some before turning up the volume on his radio. Rising up from his place of cover and spinning around John thumbed the third yellow button once more. he could almost hear his body's power plant scream out in pain and protest as his power level plummeted down to 20%. warning lights flashed in his vision like mad as his body moved on it's own as V.A.T.S kicked in. His head turned and his arms raised it's weapon to the woman waving her arms at him. everything just slowed down as V.A.T.S took control.

John's vision seemed to zoom out a bit as he caught sight of a raider sneaking along the buss just below the windows the sniper was using as cover. He could already feel his body cringe as more power was sent to V.A.T.S.

With V.A.T.S taking over John felt his body hone in on the raider that was going to sneak an explosive surprise into the window of the buss. and yet as the gun came to bare on the raider, every crack, crevice, and light on the thing glowing a bright red, John felt his power drop down to just 5% as his finger pulled the trigger and V.A.T.S released him from it's control. A thick bright lance of light erupted from his pistol. The air around the charged blast seemed to ignite in a red haze of feint sparks as the laser burned through the ambient dust in the air. Then before a person's brain could even register the need to tell it's heart to beat again, That lance of light that seemed to rip the air asunder in it's wake impacted the raider's chest causing him to scream out. The blast from the pistol Ripping through the man, leaving a hole in his torso the size of a large apple. The hole itself seemed to ignite as the flesh and meat were burned away as the man screamed in futility and horror as his body turned to dust. The only thing left of the raider now was his skeleton, the armor he was wearing, and the weapons he was using.

John could feel his body shutting down bit by bit as the world seemed to fade. He was sitting at just 5% power and even that was still draining away. As the high intensity lens of his pistol glowed white hot and a reddish smoke fizzled up from around it John turned his head sluggishly to the girl who had tried to get his attention. "n... nearest town?" he'd ask in confusion as he pulled up his pipboy and thumbed the controls to switch to his map. though as he did, he wobbled a little bit, loosing his balance and falling over. He felt drained, and he couldn't put it off anymore. one arm haphazardly reached down towards his pocket to pull out a bottle of Nuka Cola, but his grip wasn't the best with so little power. he'd struggle with it, trying to get the top off but it seemed he couldn't manage it. The power display in his vision read 2.5%

@Marik
france was coming up the road waving at my character as he hid in the debris.
only typo i see is you missed france. early on when i was reading it i thaught you shot at her XP
sure
John hadn't stopped or rested fora little over three days now. he'd just been walking along nonstop down a road. He'd seen a few corpses along the side every so often. normally picked clean of anything useful for the most part. John had long since stopped checking himself, no sense in wasting the energy to go over, check, and get disappointed. a quick scan of the corpse was normally all it took for him to see if anything he valued was on it. It was still early in the morning when he came up towards a site that seemed to rub him the wrong way. his eyes scanned the area as various warnings seemed to go off in his cybernetic mind telling him this was an area where things were likely to get ambushed. Wreckage from caravans that had been torn to shreds littered bits of the road and roadside. small mound of earth ran along one side of the road with tall grass covering most of it. taking a few steps closer to the site John's eyes scanned the area more intently, picking out points in the pavement where bullets smashed into the ground, laser fire scorched the earth, and hot plasma showed that nothing could resist the fourth state of matter. Kneeling by a pile of ash John reached his hand into it, sifting around for anything that may have survived. all he managed to pull out was a bottle cap that no longer served it's purpose as currency anymore. this was apparently where the victim had been shot. turning the remains of the cap over his eyes scanned it, he could see the black char of biological materiel that was flash imprinted on the bottle cap as someone was atomized by a well placed shot from an overcharged laser weapon. the shot had impacted the cap which appeared to be apart of a necklace of some sort, burning right through and then ended the existence of it's owner. dropping the mangled remains of the metal John looked up carefully to everything around him as his pipboy's radio flickered to life as it picked up a signal and started playing it.

a few notes strummed from a guitar came out before a voice spoke "It's all over, but the crying. And nobody's crying but me. Friends all over. know I'm trying. To forget about how much I care for you" the radio kept playing the old song from a band known as the ink spots as he stood up and moved his hand down to thumb the third yellow button on his pipboy a few times as he looked around. The feeling was intense as V.A.T.S kicked in and he could feel his remaining power drain quickly in the process. He watched as his power meter went down and down and down. 45% dropped to 40% with the first press as the pipboy's processors scanned the area where he could see, though nothing came up. turning his head he watched again as his power levels took another hit as he scanned again, pressing the third yellow button with a distinctive click as his power plummeted down to 35%. Again nothing. but still the fake hairs on the back of his neck were standing on end as he could feel something or someone watching him. Again he'd turn his head, his thumb pressing the button once more as his power dropped to 30% and all sorts of warnings in red text began running down the side of his vision.

nothing was there.... with sluggish and tired movements he'd turn his head one more time to scan one last area, his thumb pressing the button once more. his power plant let out a hungry growl as it struggled to keep up with the power demands as his power dropped to 25%. The low power warning kept flashing like mad in the corner of his vision, though this time was different. This time data began feeding into his senses like mad as the pipboy's V.A.T.S system found something.

Target currently in cover. Ambush imminent. Recommend securing cover.


Rather than continue and take ineffective shots at a target he already knew he couldn't hit even if he focused everything he had into a single area, John let his system exit the sensation that was V.A.T.S. and instead chose to try and do something else. Looking up the road John could see an old grocery store just down the way, but as is he wouldn't be able to outrun someone with a long range firearm with the low power he was running on. So he did the only thing he could do right now... Abide by the advice his Pipboy gave him. With that John dove down behind a pile of wreckage that he knew was insufficient. his mind calculating chance to hit him from the ambusher's location. no matter the calculation, from his current point of cover, it didn't look good. For all John knew the man hiding and waiting in ambush could have seen john look straight at him. yeah, this was gonna be one of those days. was probably gonna get shot again.

@Pripovednik for his character henry.
@Valais 66 and @Balmung1100 for NPC raiders if there are any left. could all be dead due to their base possibly being the old grocery store.
