War war never changes.
During the great resource wars a belief was born. The belief was that if the war continued the world would surly face atomic annihilation. These people where know as survivalists. They had many names, faces and flags, but one thing remained the same their belief. In that moment they became united. A shunned people in the old world but a legend in the wastes.
A large family born of the old world they are known as UGR the United Global Republic.
(30 miles south from New Vegas.)
Two men wearing similar tan uniforms and red beret walked through a destroyed village. Buildings levelled, people dead and weapons scattered. The two men looked at the devastation with horror but kept calm. They knew what it meant. Then the taller one took hold of his radio on the left side of his chest.
"Command it's recon team beta of snake squad, the Intel was right they're moving up." he said in a strange accent. "Yeah, yes sir." he then turned off his radio.
"So heading back?" his partner asked.
"Yeah mate. Looks like their heading for NV."
"Intel says that after the battle of Hoover damn the NCR currently controls the city. All thanks to a person there calling 'The Courier'."
"What about the legion?"
"Gone. They left New Vegas to rally for another attack later on."
"Well lets get back."
And with that the men left.
OOOOO
Mike Renma stood on Hoover damn looking outward at the Mojave wasteland. He wore his reinforced leather armour. It stayed with him since he left Goodsprings and never left him. He also wore a brown sheriff hat and biker goggles around his neck. At that moment the Sun rose in the distance lighting up the wasteland. Mike smiled and walked off. The sunrise was all he wanted to see.
As he walked the NCR troopers gathered the remaining dead. The troopers laid NCR flags over the body's to show their bravery in the recent battle. Mike sighed as he walked off. He regretted the loss of life but such things where common in the wastes. He walked to new Vegas. Back home. But as he walked he couldn't shake the felling that something was going to happen.
OOOOO
A man in an officer uniform looking out of a window at a city currently under construction. Unlike most of the other factions in the wastes they where one of the few with the capability of creation without a G.E.C.K. At that moment two soldiers entered. Both wore the same tan coloured uniform but one of them wore a black beret the other wore a tan baseball cap with an old world flag on it.
The officer turned to face them. His uniform was like the enclave officers uniform except that it was black and had an old word flag on the left. He also had medals on the right.
"Sir Intel was right. They're moving up to New Vegas." the man in the beret said.
The officer nodded before sitting down.
"What can we do to prevent this?" he asked.
"We could evacuate the city and set up a defensive line ready for them." the capped man said.
The officer nodded again.
"But that could take a long time."
"Sir with respect we don't have much choice."
"Inform the Area Commander Nevada that he is in charge of the operation. Tell him to use any means necessary to keep Vegas running."
The two soldiers saluted and left. The officer then turned to look out the window again. At that moment three Vertibirds flew overhead. The officer smiled. He then reached into his uniform and took out a dog tag. His smile faded. It was not his but his wife who died in the line of duty a few years ago. He missed her but never dwelled on it.
He looked out of the window again knowing that the upcoming battle was about to begin.
OOOOO
Mike walked through Freeside to the strip. Since he killed Mr house he owned the Lucky 37 casino. And thanks to his adventures he hired some people to work in it. It was one of the best casino's on the strip. He walked inside his casino were people where playing and walked into the lift.
The lift took him to the presidential suite were he lived. The lift stopped and a small black haired girl jumped on him and caused him to fall back into the lift.
"Welcome back daddy." she said hugging him.
"Good to be back sweetheart." he said ruffling her hair.
He then got up while the girl wrapped her arms round his neck holding on to him. As he walked into the suite a tanned woman wearing a blue loincloth and a sports bra-style top with necklaces and two bands on one left ankle and right upper arm approached.
"Hello Saya." he said.
"Welcome back dear." she said holding his waist and kissing him.
Both of them where from Zion. After Daniel and the others evacuated the park Mike wondered around before finding a mother and her child crying at the sorrows village. They where left behind. Ever since then he took them back to New Vegas and got them settled in the Lucky 37.
But when he first met Saya had a different name that Mike couldn't speak. He also tried to find a way to get her to her tribe but never could. The tunnel was the only way. He then offered for them to come with him which Saya refused at first but accepted after realising there was too much danger in Zion to live alone with a child.
After they gathered their belongings they then walked to new Vegas. Upon looking at the city Saya was speechless. Both Saya and Dela when they entered the strip and the Lucky 37 slowly settled into their new life. It was difficult at first but thanks to Mike's connection the Follow of the apocalypse helped them settle in.
But that wouldn't keep them fed so with his earnings Mike hired some people in Freeside who had experience in the casinos and reopened the Lucky 37. With that done people came to the casino and the money rolled in. But Mike kept little of the earnings for himself. The rest of it when to the employees, food and water, casino expenses and charity for the Followers.
As time passed both Saya and Dela became used to their new life. Dela even began to play with other kids her age and Saya managed the casino when Mike was away. But when he was at the casino Mike and Saya spent a lot of time together. As they spent more and more time together they fell for each other. Before the 2nd battle of hover dam Saya and Mike got married to Dela's joy.
After the battle they lived there but instead of adventuring Mike spent time with NCR helping them train troops. He was a hero to them as well as being rich. But despite those things Mike always felt guilty about taking Saya and Dela way from their home in Zion. However to make them feel at home he encouraged them to do their tribal rituals and joined in himself. It made him feel less guilty but did not ease it.
After a moment of kissing Saya broke it and looked at her husband with her loving eyes.
"Had fun?" she asked.
"Those rookies had no idea how to fire a gun." he said smiling before turning to his step daughter. "Time for you to go to school."
"Oh do I have to?" she moaned.
"Yes. See you later Saya." he said before leaving.
After watching her husband go Saya walked into her room and sat down. She looked down at her belly and gently stroked it. She was pregnant but wondered on how to tell Mike. But little did any of them know of another battle. A battle that will decide the fate of New Vegas for once and for all.
Mike walked to the old Mormon fort. After the battle NCR created a place for education to get kids of the streets. The followers eagerly volunteered for teaching positions. As he approached the old for an old friend come out.
"Arcade." Mike yelled grabbing the doctors attention.
"Mike." Arcade said coming over and shaking the man's hand. "Good to see your still alive."
"Same with you."
"Hello Mr Arcade." Mike's step daughter said.
"Hello Dela. I hope your not giving you dad too much trouble."
"Oh she's been keeping me on my toes." Mike laughed with Arcade.
OOOOO
The Vertibirds started to load up on weapons, food and water. The old world air force base was full of soldiers getting prepared. While each one wore a similar tan uniform they had different item's on them. Each of them had different pieces of armour that no one found strange. All of them where from different nation's but while some of them still held grudges against certain nations non of them acted on it. Those days where far behind them.
As they loaded the last of the gear onto the vertibirds they split into groups and stood at attention. Then several officers then came up.
"Ok lads listen up. We have solid lintel that The Plague is on the way to New Vegas." the officer said with the other officers speaking the same thing but in a different language.
"Our objective is to make sure that New Vegas does not fall. At all cost we have to stop them. Now load up."
With that the soldiers grabbed their weapons that ranged from Chinese assault rifle like weapons to long range sniper rifles. As well as their equipment and bordered the Vertibirds. Once all of the soldiers where on board the Vertibirds took off with no trouble. The engineers stationed at the base watched as the soldiers flew south, towards the next battle.
OOOOO days later
Mike watched over the making of the new New Vegas NCR barracks. His barracks, he should have felt honoured but that feeling of an upcoming battle still haunted him. The recent reports of a strange sickness plaguing the south spread to his ears. The Followers had no idea what to do about it. As soon as someone contracts it they come out in broken skin, falling out hair and an animistic mind.
There where legends of such a plague in the south but there where no confirmed evidence of it. But the main worry was that there was no cure. The infection just changed rapidly like the cold. Now he thought about it he remembered reading something of experimental biological weapons in the south when he was in the Divide. Now he thought about it he wrote it down in a book. He headed back to the Lucky 37 but then the unmistakeable sound of Vertibirds sounded. He looked south seeing not just one, but hundred's of Vertibirds.
Boone who was training a new set of snipers came up to Mike and looked in the direction the Courier was looking.
"What the hell?" he asked.
"Boone get a look of the marking." Mike said.
The sniper nodded took out his rifle and looked through the scope. On the side of the hull was painted the old world flag with the words 'UGR Nevada sect' underneath it.
"Mike it says UGR."
Mike looked at the sniper with wide eyes. "UGR? Are your sure?"
"Yeah."
"Then pray that they are not here for NCR. Aside from the BOS and Institute they are the most powerful wastes group out there. They keep to the north but beyond that all everyone knows is that they have a massive amount of old world tech."
