Patel Shard sighed, "Ok, here's the deal, that building over there is the old Ponyville Safe Saver Bank and in the basement of that bank is a vault which, according to pre-war documents and data I've acquired, holds an item I'm very interested in. The problem is that thanks to a nearby balefire explosion that made that crater the whole basement is not only eradiated but exposed to the mutants that have taken up residence in the crater. To top it off the upper levels of the bank are occupied by a large group of Raiders. Any attempt to get to the vault would be utter suicide without a massive army of well armed ponies. As it stands I don't have the caps for that, which is where you come in" she paused to take a breath and order her thoughts.
"I've been watching this group of Raiders from a distance, monitoring their movements, and I've found that at around this time the bulk of them leave to do, well what Raiders do. This also correlates with a pattern of movement among the crater mutants, namely that they move to the far side of the crater away from the bank to drink the pooled rainwater there. It is at this point that our chances are best to reach the vault and escape with our lives" Petal explained. She glanced around the group before continuing, "as I said in the notice I lack the caps to pay you directly however this group of Raiders has amassed a large amount of caps that you are welcome to divide among yourselves as payment, as well as any other items you may like" Petal said with a nod. She glanced back at the bank before continuing, "now, even with depleted numbers it would be unwise to assault the entrance as there is a sniper's nest covering it and these Raiders have shown a degree of planning very impressive for there kind, i.e. the sniper has a clean shot everywhere in front of the entrance including behind the barricades the have erected. However there is a way in outside the sniper's field of vision, a hole in side wall that we can use to sneak in and eliminate the Raiders before they can properly organise...well whatever passes for organisation among Raiders" she explained, taking a moment to allow the others to absorb the information.
"Ok, we've got a little time before the Raiders go a raiding and so do we, so if you've got something to say then now is the time. It's been my experience that fire fights aren't the best times to introduce your self. Oh and one other thing, no heroics! Heroes just get themselves and the rest of us killed so be smart and everything will be fine. We go in, kill everything that moves, swipe everything that isn't nailed down and get out with out heads still attached...nice and simple" Petal said before settling on her haunches and watching for the Raiders to leave the bank.
