GroundWater - The Summer Raids

[Mikoyan]

There wasn't much left in the bags besides a couple of cans of food and various toiletries. Alex began stuffing everything in her bag when she noticed the hard rifle case. She pulled it over in front of her and unmatched it. When the case opened, it revealed the Barrett of which she had no knowledge of. However, there might be some uses for the case. She picked up the rifle and threw it to the side, covering one side in the fine sand and particles of the desert of the Southwest. She latched the case back, got up and began walking unknowingly in the same direction as the man she'd seen.

I ran until I couldn't run anymore, and fell to my knees to breath. After taking my moment, I got back up and began walking onward, hoping to find another safe zone, or that God was watching down on me.

As Max fell, Bailey took it as a moment to strike.  He began sprinting forward, now only within a quarter of a football field's length of him, he smiled deviantly, prepared to strike.

[Jokey365]

After a moment of walking, I examined my surroundings to check if I was still being followed. I spotted somebody sprinting at me, and he was closing in fast. Oh no. He was clearly trying to murder me, so I had to hope that my next move would work.

I began kicking up dirt to make a small cloud as I made a cross with my fingers. "BE GONE!" I shouted as I backed up and kicked more dirt.

Believe it or not, Ashton stops for a moment, examining the cross, and he begins to cackle.  He then lets his M14 dangle by its sling, bending over and placing his hands on his knees, laughing even harder, uncontrollably, looking at him through his tinted goggles, as he begins to slap his knees.  Eventually, he would stop, taking a deep breath, as he looks back up at him, "Did you really think that would stop me from beating you unmercifully?" he asks, his voice hoarse.

[Jokey365]

"It did though, you stopped." I say, still holding the cross in place. I then begin slowly shuffling away, hoping to keep him distracted with conversation. "Please don't hurt me."

[blazerblock2]

Ashton chuckled, "I never said anything about you stopping me from charging at you... just beating you senseless." he says, placing a hand on his holster, pressing down on the release as he draws his Beretta quickly, bringing his left hand up to meet his right and wrapping his hands around the grip on his pistol tightly.

[Jokey365]

"Satan will be waiting for you in the deepest darkest depths of hell!" I shout before back pedaling away, still keeping my cross aimed in his direction.

[blazerblock2]

Ashton began to laugh again, "I'm gonna tear those fingers off and jam them up your ass!" he shouted, adjusting the sights on his Beretta on Max's knee and squeezing the trigger, firing a 9x19mm round directly for it.

[Jokey365]

The power of Jesus allows me to avoid the bullet.

The bullet hit me just below the knee,  but it hurt as much as if it actually hit me in the knee. I collapse as I yell in pain, then roll over and start to hobble away. "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, please no!" I shout with random grunts of pain here and there.

[blazerblock2]

He charged forward quickly, leaping on top of Max and landing on his back, a whole 145lbs+ now straining Max's back.  He steps down, leaving one foot on Max's back and pressing down on his spine, leaning over, "You're in for a world of hurt now, church boy!" he says.

[Jokey365]

"PLEASE, NO! ARE YOU WORKING FOR JOHN?! I'LL GIVE HIM HIS MONEY BACK, JUST DON'T KILL ME!" I beg. "I'LL GIVE EVERYONE THEIR MONEY BACK, I'LL ADMIT TO HAVING SOME ACES IN MY SLEEVE, JUST PLEASE, HAVE SOME MERCY!"
