The raiders weren't too bright, most of them having fried their brains on chems. They made too much noise, making it easy to track them and put them down. But their leader was different. He had training and used chems properly. He knew how to manipulate his druggy followers, and he needed to get into the vault. It would be a great home base once they cleared out the inhabitants.

Sadly, the power had been cut to the elevator and the vault door and none of them had a pip-boy to even interface with the controls. They had managed to pull the panel off the back of the controls and were trying to patch in another terminal, but it was taking too long. Since everyone was too focused on getting in, nobody really noticed when Caleb snuck into the basement where the door was. There were about ten raiders and "Lugnut", their leader in a power armor frame with scrap armor. Most of them carried knives or machetes, but a few had rifles...Lugnut himself carried a machine gun and a super-sledge.

"Come on, I gave you my entire stash of Mentats, get that damn door open!" Shouted Lugnut at the one hacking the terminal. he was getting impatient.
