Andrew is a Warlord Survivor and DEX type Warrior, who has the potential to be promoted to Mythical Grade.

## Background

A man in his forties stood behind the boy, trying to break up the fight. Behind him, an old man sat in the dirt, one hand on his pistol. The woman and another man watched from their position in the very back near a crate of supplies, hands hidden behind their backs. As tensions escalated, Andrew felt someone poke his spine, signaling that they should engage. He adjusted his grip on his nail gun as he assessed who to shoot first.
In his experience, enemies to the back acted unpredictably, which could mean trouble. He surreptitiously studied the man and woman next to the crate. At a glance, the man looked like he'd put up the most fight. However, Andrew could see his shoulders trembling slightly from here. He looked scared. The woman, on the other hand... Despite her slight frame, she stood coolly observing the scene with a fierce glint in her eye. Once the fight broke out, Andrew would be willing to bet that the first shot came from her. In any case, he could use the man in his forties as a shield if an attack came from that direction, so he dismissed both of them as a priority. The immediate threat was the geezer's gun, but Andrew doubted that the skinny old man would be quick enough to present any real danger. Since the teenager was caught up in the argument with Andrew's friend, he'd be slow to react. That left the man in his forties. Andrew nodded twice and felt two answering taps on his back. That was his cue. He fired his nail gun just as a gunshot rang out from beside him.
The old man crumpled to the ground, a bullet hole in his head. Andrew's nail had missed. His target charged him, knocking him to the ground. As the other group returned fire, Andrew's friend retreated to cover behind a nearby tree. She was out of ammo. Andrew dropped his nail gun, grabbed the awl from his belt, and stabbed his attacker in the neck. Blood gushed from the man's wound as he slumped forward, dripping tears and saliva onto Andrew's face. The dying man reached for the knife strapped to his thigh too late. Andrew drove the awl into the man's head, then stood, using the body as a shield. The dead man's comrades stopped firing, giving Andrew the chance to retrieve both of his weapons and retreat behind a tree to assess the situation.
Andrew's friend was grappling with the teenager on the ground, trying to find an opening to stab him with his knife. The woman near the crate pointed her pistol at them, waiting to get a clear shot. Noticing this, the boy dug his teeth into his opponent's hand and kicked him in the stomach to create space between them. Andrew shot at the woman before she could pull the trigger. Warned by her partner's shout, the woman flinched, and the nail only grazed her cheek. Her aim went low, causing the bullet to strike Andrew's friend in the leg. Shrieking in pain, he rolled behind the closest tree. When the teenager charged at him, Andrew fired a nail into his leg, dropping him to his knees. He then finished off the boy with another nail to the head.
From behind the tree, Andrew's friend sliced off part of his shirt to create a makeshift bandage for his leg. He then began firing wildly in the direction of the woman. Using the shots as a distraction, Andrew crept into the trees towards the crate, nail gun in hand. He had one nail left, and his friend's gun would soon be empty. He needed to act quickly. He planned to subdue the woman with his last nail, then kill her partner using her gun. The gunfire ceased abruptly, revealing Andrew's movement in the bushes. The woman opened fire into the bushes near his position. Pretending to be hit, he screamed and dropped to the ground. As soon as she shifted her attention to his friends, Andrew started crawling towards her. When he heard her begin to reload, he jumped to his feet and fired—only to miss.
As the woman's partner opened fire on him, Andrew bolted towards her. Using the crate as cover, he stabbed her in the arm with his awl, causing her to drop her gun and ammo. He scooped them up and leaned against the crate as he reloaded. The wood behind his back splintered into pieces from the continuing gunfire. Andrew dragged the woman in front of him, using her as a shield as he slowly backed away towards a tree. After a brief moment of hesitation, the man shot the woman multiple times—Andrew felt a searing pain in his stomach. As he collapsed to the ground, he closed his eyes. He had underestimated what people are capable of when facing death.
Andrew blinked. Over his friend's shoulder, he observed the squabble they had instigated with the other survivor group. Closing his eyes, he reconsidered the events he had played out in his head. Everything had gone well until he had tried to retreat while using the woman as a shield. If he moved faster and shot through her first, the plan should still work.Andrew felt a poke in his back and nodded twice.
“Let’s do this—for real this time.”
Feeling two answering taps on his back, he grinned and lifted his nail gun.
