Fight her way through Free Side

Already on edge Madeline pulled out her 10mm pistol and fired quickly, barely even getting a clear sight picture of her target. A human dressed in rags slumped to the ground, the clang of a rusty blade echoing as the figure dropped the makeshift weapon with a groan.

Another three figures emerged and rushed Madeline dressed in various patchwork clothing, their clubs and shivs raised high. Madeline swiveled and fired at each one, trying to remember the old VR training sessions she had done earlier in her life. The first of the three attackers took a grazing wound and careened away from her reactively to avoid more hurt. The second thug was less lucky and took a round straight to his sternum and fell to the cracked pavement with a heavy crash. She missed the third goon entirely but upon seeing the carnage inflicted by the woman wielding a gun the man tucked tail and ran, figuring this quarry was not worth the effort.

The wounded man likewise fled when he saw his companion flee and his other compatriots on the ground, the blood pouring from his arm was extra encouragement.

Madeline fired at a shadowy figure armed with a make shift spear near her in a building. Blasting away with her pistol, changing a magazine and moving as she went from cover to cover. The noise was deafening as she squeezed off more rounds to help her fight her way through.

Madeline made her way quickly down the street, her weapon out and her head on a swivel for threats. After running a block or two she stopped to take a breath. Her hands shook from the adrenaline. After a few more minutes, once she felt safe she holstered her weapon and looked to see what must be the entrance to New Vegas.
