If you see the first and subsequent chapters changed or with new ones added, it's because I edited them. There won't be many changes, except I noticed there were parts where I rushed or didn't delve deeply enough into various aspects.

VOL 1 CH 4: Combat in the Town
Upon returning to the settlement, they rushed towards the town hall. Slamming the door, the secretary inside, who was writing on a terminal, jumped in surprise. "What's going on?" she asked, startled.
"Tell the mayor that the bandits are going to attack the settlement!" Albert yelled at the secretary, who hesitated at first, but the expressionless mask told her it was the truth. She stood up and ran to the mayor's office, where it could be heard that he was on alert and a portly man in a gray suit, in his forties with brown hair and jet-black eyes who seemed distraught, would come out.
"What do you mean, young man?" he asked, not recognizing him because of the filtration mask.
"The bandits are going to bring reinforcements," Charon said to the settlement leaders who were surprised by his appearance.
"Are they hunters?" he asked hopefully.
"Mercenaries," Albert said. "I said we'd take care of them, and we will." This made the mayor smile. "We need a map of the settlement and ammunition."
"Young man, if you get it, we'll pay you as we can. Miss Smith, bring the map of the town."
The woman hurried to get it. "Charon, bring the rest," Charon nodded and went for the rest of the team.
Upon returning, the woman brought a map of the settlement. Albert analyzed the map, seeing that the only entrance and exit was at the front of the town. The town is located around the market, which was in front of the entrance, and in the center was the town hall.
"Wanderer," Cross said, approaching with the rest. The Wanderer nodded. "What do we have?"
"The raiders may attack from the front. I plan for Sydney and Fawkes to be in the rear for support. Dogmeat along with RL-3 will be the shock troops, and finally, we will be on the front, finishing them off."
"What if they break the line of defense?" Harkness asked.
"Well...we hit and shoot."
"You speak my language, kid!" Jericho shouted excitedly.
"If they have that force field, will we do the same?" Butch asked, attracting strange looks from the rest.
"Grenades should do the trick," Charon said.
"Alright," the Wanderer said. "Get into position and let's finish them."
"I'm going to set the alarm," the mayor said.
The group would begin to set up defenses at strategic points in front of the entrance while Sydney went to the highest part and Fawkes prepared.
"You're going to need this," the guard said, giving several boxes with ammunition of different colors.
"The more help, the better," the Wanderer said, taking a couple of 5.56 mm cartridges
"Heh, don't underestimate me, kid," the guard said.
"Sir, the armorer gave us this," said another guard, giving several weapons. Some were swords or rifles, but others were "exotic."
"This crap is going to break," Jericho said, holding a stick with pieces of iron, and at the top was a cannon that connected with a trigger.
Charon only saw a shield that was also a shotgun. He just loaded it.
"Get into position and fingers on the trigger," Cross said.
Sydney using her sniper rifle would spot several men in black and red clothing. Using a mirror, she would aim down to make a Morse code.
"They are...fifty...armed with...rifles and...bladed weapons," Cross translated to the group who were hiding.
The group fell silent, attentive to the doors that were closed with some things placed to block the advance. So that an explosion would occur and shouts of adrenaline would be heard.
"Leave them like cheese," the lone Wanderer said.
Everyone would come out of their hiding places to start shooting at them. Just as Butch warned, some had the force field that did not hurt them, fortunately, the damage from plasma and laser managed to pierce it.
"Dogmeat, RL-3! Charge!" Butch shouted while firing his SMG against several. The two mentioned would do as instructed.
Clover would come out of cover to throw several grenades against the group as they exploded and damaged others from the area damage to pull out his sword and cut one in the chest, stab another and use his body as cover against one who was shooting at her. Using his sawed-off shotgun, he aimed at one and gave him in the head.
"For the Brotherhood!" Cross charged towards them.
"WHAT IS THAT?!" a raider shouted.
As he charged, he would impact a group, knocking them down, one with bad luck ended up being crushed by the armored foot of the T-40 power armor. The raiders fired against the plates, which simply bounced off.
"Not bad," Cross said, taking out his super sledgehammer. "But mine is bigger." Those armed with close-range weapons tried to hit him, but the super sledgehammer was stronger, and killed them.
Dogmeat ran against one, using the impulse of his jump, he grabbed one's throat. While the man fought, the dog held firmly until he managed to pierce an artery and let him drown.
RL-3- along with Harkness using their advanced sensors gave precise shots to finish off as many of them as possible. Jericho laughed as he filled bullets against a group that tried to surprise him. Another one threw himself against him, but he only needed two shots to finish him off. "HAHAHA! Two shots, kid, two shots!"
When his weapon jammed, he would take out the weapon the armorer gave him to fight against one. Between both raiders they had experience; but one was an old dog with experience. Jericho kicked the crotch, forcing him to lean forward to hit his head from below, making him fall and stabbing the tips into his neck. Jericho took some time to look at the weapon. When a group approached, he tested the firing mode and, upon pulling the trigger, to his surprise, a ball of fire came out that would set the group on fire. He took a moment to look at it. "Better than the fucking stick with nails," he said with a smile.
Sydney fired against those furthest away, Charon decided to try a shotgun shield. He ran against a group. The first shot hit him in the chest and then avoided the bullets using it. And approached to hit him in the face, making him fall, and firing and the last one he threw on his abdomen and fired the Blackhawk in his head. He took the shield again and continued defending.
The Wanderer and Butch fired to keep them at bay. "They're retreating!" Butch shouted, seeing them flee.
"Fleeing won't do them any good! I'm going to shoot them in the ass!" Jericho said, using his Chinese assault rifle against them.
One of the guards was going to declare victory, but everyone would see a red vortex opening, and the reinforcements would come out along with a woman in black and red Chinese armor and a mask of what looked like the face of one of the dark creatures.
"The reinforcements have arrived!" Fawkes shouted, aiming and firing at them. The woman, seeing the damage from the weapon, focused her target on the green giant, but using her sword, she avoided the shots to see how the boy with the gas mask ran and took out a chainsaw sword. Both clashed swords and looked into each other's eyes.
One with determination and the other with a serious look. "You must be the leader of the raiders?" she asked.
They both separated and got into combat position. "Yes, I am." She turned to see how the boy's group managed to put up a fight. "Normally I would have killed you for interfering, but I'll give you an option. Join us or die."
The Wanderer just watched her. "No thanks, I already joined raiders once and the result was that I killed them all," he said, mocking the raiders of The Pitt.
"So be it," said the woman to throw herself with a speed that he had not seen coming that he could only block in time and make her back down to give his counterattack. The Wanderer would give vertical cuts to try to disarm her, but she blocked them and put her sword in its sheath and took it out to his surprise, she threw a wall of fire at him that forced him to roll to the side. 'What the hell?' He thought.
He got up again to launch himself into the attack. The bandit woman threw herself against him, but received a blow to the head, seeing that the cause was the sniper, just the Wanderer took the opportunity to give her a cut in the chest, damaging some armor plates. She doing a flip avoided being stabbed in the sword, but an explosion in the chest made her roll. She looked furiously at the boy who was holding several grenades.
She would rejoin, and would see the group of bandits being reduced or not managing to give fight to the rest of the boys. "Retreat" She opened two portals where her accomplices and one for her were. "Our duel will be postponed. What's your name?".
"No name, just call me the Lone Wanderer," the boy said.
Without saying anything, she took a piece of her armor and threw it at him. The Wanderer took it, seeing that it was a piece of armor and the woman would enter the portal where she would disappear.
The battle was over and they won.
"Not bad, kid," the guard said, smiling as his assistants loaded the lifeless bodies of the bandits into a cart. "I had heard rumors that the Branwen tribe didn't leave anything...but now I think they'll leave us alone for a while."
"Yes, now I have a target on my back," he said.
"I'll tell the mayor to give you a good pay."
"Sounds good. Money and supplies...and maybe a map with a compass."
The town celebrated the victory in the town bar, the survivors tasted for the first time food free of radiation or preserved along with clean beer apart from a good hot bath. The next day they left for a new destination. To the city of Vale.
What do you think? See you in the next chapter :)
