Madeline didn't get much help (Low Combat)

Madeline felt confident that the coming fight would be one that Goodsprings could handle. However, Madeline had not gotten plenty of help.

A few days passed as final preparations were made. The citizens of Goodsprings that Trudy and Sunny could gather together lay in wait, taking shifts to not exhaust themselves. They knew the trouble was coming and soon.

Eventually a sentry came panting into the Prospector Saloon "Powder Gangers" he sighed gasping for breath "dozens of em."

As the Powder Gangers began to rove up in a disorganized group, Joe Cobb led the way. Trudy fired the opening shot. Then everyone opened fire. The Powder Gangers were caught off guard and were being cut down. They hadn't expected resistance. However, without the combined help of extra weapons and dynamite the citizens of Goodsprings were in for a tough fight. Goodspringers went down to dynamite tossed by Poweder Gangers or by shotguns and blades. Those brave enough to resist the onslaught were often overwhelmed, enough Powder Gangers just hadn't been felled in the initiation.

Among the victims of the fighting lay a lone vault dweller, whose jet black hair mingled with sand and blood.
