"Yeah, I came to free slaves," said Par. "Happy to meet you, Akira."

"As for the others, that's what the fire is for, so that the slavers would be too distracted fighting the flames to attack...my friends." Par gasped in a little suprise, and then smiled. [i]I have friends.[/i] "Don't worry about them, both of them are capable Wastelanders, and one of them would die before the other is put in danger." [i]John will keep his promise to keep Gabe safe.[/i].

The Yao Guai was weaving through the trees now, making them hard to pursue. As the three (including the bear) went south, Par began feeling a little relieved...

Once the two and the mercs got to Old Man's Corner, they would find a scene straight out of hell. Teams of ad-hoc firefighters were taking what water there was in order to quench the raging inferno, as well as using up their last supplies of Pre-War fire extinguisher. A latrine or two had also caught fire, causing toxic fumes to permeate the place. 

Now, Rob and Oaf had a choice; either set themselves or their mercenaries to firefighting, or try to look for the source of the disrurbance. There were sounds of shooting in the west, while just south of them lay a broken piece of palisade...

Should all three finally leave the area, they would find the town in a mixed mood, mixed because of a combination of their deadly losses and their spectacular victory. They would clearly not be in the mood for more fighting, even with Albert's Charisma to drive them on. However, a gunseller would sell them sniper rifles, assault rifles, and pistols for cheap, as well as a special type of 'Sticky Grenade' that worked using magnets, and an armorer would sell them crude kevlar armor.

Oh, and three people, people who were former patients of the Brooklyn Hospital, [i]would[/i] join.
