up yet though; he still has to finish training.”
“Yessir,” Austin finished. “A couple more days before Week Three. Graduation is just arou-”
BOOM!
An explosion was seen from nearly fifty feet away from where everyone was at.
“Take cover!” Brandon ordered.
As everyone was running away from the commotion, ammunition began flying, killing some of the soldiers that guarded the small outpost that was set up. As Austin ran for cover, a flurry of bullets pierced his back, killing him before he could hit the floor. Some of the recruits were also caught in the crossfire, perishing from the burning lead.
“We got raiders!” Jake shouted. “About twenty to thirty of ‘em!”
As more soldiers neared the firefight, a rocket zoomed by those taking cover, erupting the ground next to them.
“That’s a B-300!” Brandon stated. “And those guys are carrying M60s and M4 Carbines! That’s military grade! Where the hell did raiders get that kind of firepower?!”
“They must have looted the N.A.S. in Pensacola,” Jake assumed. “The armory was empty when we got there.”
“Are you frickin’ kiddin’ me?! Help is on the other side of the settlement! And we don’t have enough weapons to take those guys down!”
“Then we stall ‘em ‘till help gets here!”

The only ones uninjured at the small outpost were Jake, Brandon, One, Three, Four, Nine, and Joseph. They stayed hidden behind the van the recruits arrived in while the raiders circled the outnumbered group.
“I’m gonna have a good, long chat with the Senator if we get out of this,” Jake grunted.
“I don’t get it,” Nine started. “They have a bazooka. Why not just blow up the vehicle we’re behind and kill us?!”
“They want us alive,” Brandon answered. “Use us as a bargaining chip, then dispose of us when we aren’t needed.”
“We gotta come up with something quick,” Jake stated. “Or else these guys are gonna get the best of us.”
Joseph peeked around the van, scanning for a way to overcome the enemy forces. He noticed a rifle ten yards right of their position. He just needed to find someone to distract the raiders long enough.
“Marshal; Chief,” Joseph started. “Do one of you have a sidearm?”
“I’m out,” Jake answered. “I think Chief has only one clip left.”
As a raider circled around to the bus, Brandon opened fire. As the intruder fell to the grass below him, Brandon’s gun clicked.
“Not anymore,” Brandon stated. “I’m out too.”
“There’s another rifle at our three o’clock,” Joseph stated. “Not to mention the gun from the guy Chief just killed. If we can give a long enough distraction, I think I can sneak around all the other debris and get to them quick enough.”
Brandon gave out a sarcastic laugh. “What do you expect us to do, Seven? Talk them to death?!”
Joseph paused for a moment and thought of Three.
“Actually, yes,” Joseph answered. “Three, you think you can do that?”
“Hope you know what you’re
