Greetings everyone! I am Dario Soto here to present a new story in my works! This story has been influenced by the successful writer The Incredible Muffin (don't laugh at the name, he is a really go writer!). I have read his version of Bioshock Infinite and I was inspired to write my own. With his permission, I was given the opportunity to write my own version of Bioshock Infinite! And Incredible Muffin, if you are reading this, this story goes out to you!
Now before we start, there are a few changes I will do in this story:
Since this is a Fallout/Bioshock crossover, the main characters will be the Lone Wanderer and Elizabeth. So there is no Booker Dewitt in this story. I have seen the walkthrough and the gameplay, and I already know how it ends. However, I will make a few changes to it and change rewrite Comstock's profile. I don't want to get into any details, but you will all be shocked!
Second, this will eventually be a Male Lone Wanderer/Elizabeth pairing. So before you say anything, let me just say, THEY ARE NOT RELATED IN ANY WAY! I have read other Bioshock stories, and let me say, a Booker/Elizabeth pairing is weird/gross and a whole lot of incest in it! So just saying this right here and now, the Lone Wanderer and Elizabeth are NOT RELATED!
Thirdly, the Lone Wanderer will have his weapons when he gets to Columbia, but I will have him use the some of the weapons in Bioshock just for the heck of it. The weapons in that game are crazy! Plus, he will use Vigor abilities, so watch out bad guys!
Lastly, the intro in this story is a bit sketchy, because (spoilers) the twins Robert and Rosalind will say to the Lone Wanderer that they 'created' a Tear to bring him to Columbia. I know they can't do that and use a different Time Travel abilities, but just to let you all know, it will be explained in the future chapters.
Anyways, don't let me stop you from reading any further, let us begin!
Prologue
War…War never changes. Ever since I got out from Vault 101, I have been on a mission to figure out why my father decided to leave the Vault and leave me behind. Once I got out, I had to face the harshness of the Capital Wasteland. Defending for myself, I have traveled to Megaton, to the Washington ruins, GNR Building, Rivet City and everywhere just to find him. When I did find him, that is when I discovered that he and my deceased mom were scientists, creating something called 'Project Purity'. It's a machine that can convert radioactive water into clean water. This was my mother's dream, a dream where everyone can have free clean water. After bringing my father and his old friend, Dr. Li, to the Jefferson Memorial where the project was located, that is when the Enclave raided the Jefferson Memorial and took everyone prisoner. Before I could do anything, my father activated the machine and unleashed a surge of radiation, sacrificing himself to save me and the others. Escaping the Jefferson Memorial, me, Dr. Li and a handful of scientists arrived at the Citadel where the Brotherhood of Steel was present. After talking to them, they informed me that the only way for Project Purity to full function is with the G.E.C.K, or Garden of Eden Creation Kit. After searching, it was then we discovered that he G.E.C.K was located in Vault 87. After traveling there, I not only found a friendly Super Mutant, but also what I was looking for. But before I could leave the Vault, I was ambushed by the Enclave who was led by Colonel Autumn, the man who I thought died along with my father. After trying to get the activation code from me after a series of torture, I was then called to meet with President Eden. When he offered me to 'help' him, I merely spat on his screen, since he was really a computer, and activated the self-destruct sequence. After escaping Raven Rock, I made my way back to the Citadel to take back Project Purity. After being joined to the Brotherhood, I joined Sarah Lyons and the Lyons Pride to reclaim my parent's dream. With the help of Liberty Prime, a giant ass robot, we manage to make it through, only to encounter Autumn and a handful of Enclave soldiers. After killing him and the others, our victory was short lived when Li's voice warned us that the machine will blow up unless it is activated. But to do that, it will unleash massive readings of radiation that will surely kill one of us. Wanting to follow the same example as my father, I entered the reactor, activated the machine, and when I entered the code, the last thing I saw was complete darkness…
2 weeks later, I had awoken from my comatose. When Elder Lyons told me that the Enclave was still active, I decided to finish what I started. Since then, I have been on some crazy adventures: I have traveled to the Pitt and freed the slaves, aided the Brotherhood of Outcasts with some simulation, was abducted by aliens and have traveled to the dark reigns of Point Lookout. After taking missions from the Brotherhood to take down the Enclave, we finally found a way to end them. In a place called Adam's Force Airbase, they have their headquarters built there to use something called an Orbital Strike to destroy any location in the Wasteland. Figuring if we take down that place, then the Enclave will surely be finished. But as I was making my way to the Airbase, I thought to myself, what am I going to do afterwards? I have pretty much helped everyone in the Wasteland and did the best of my abilities to keep it a peaceful place. Uncertain on what to do, I made my way to the base to destroy the Enclave once and for all.
But unknown to me, my life is about to turn upside down. You think living in the Capital Wasteland with everything going on was that bad? Trust me when I say: everything I did and the things I have done was just the tip of the iceberg…
Everything was quiet at the Adam Force Airbase. Every Enclave Soldier was patrolling their perimeter until a shot rang through the air. On alert, when each soldier look in the direction the shot came from, they saw a squad of Brotherhood members charging towards them. Wanting to defend themselves, everyone went to their battle stations and start aiming their weapons. As they aimed their weapons, they saw one member different than the others. Instead of wearing a Power Armor, this person was wearing normal armor and was showing off their face. From the looks of it, the figure was a Caucasian male, had messy black hair and his eyes were covered by sunglasses. He was wearing a black Combat Armor with the Brotherhood of Steel logo on the left chest, and armguard with a fingerless glove on the right arm while the left one had a Pipboy 3000. They knew who this person was, this person was Leon Kinston, better known as the Lone Wanderer. Before anyone would shoot, Leon had his Chinese Assault Rifle and started to fire away his bullets.
After killing the ground forces, Leon checked his inventory: his Chinese Assault Rifle, his unique .44 Scope Magnum: Blackhawk, Combat Shotgun, Laser Rifle, Trench Knife and a couple of Plasma Grenades. For each of his weapons, his ammunition was close to 24,000 each. Not only has he saved up on ammunition, but he often stock up on them. Now he doesn't have to worry about asking around for ammo. He also had a few Stimpacks and Adapted Bio Gels. The armor he was wearing use to be from the Talon Company, but since Leon killed them all, he removed the logo from the armor and replaced it with the Brotherhood logo. (A/N: I like the Black Combat Armor, but I had to change that logo)
After reloading his rifle, Leon made his way into the base and began to scout the area. Seeing more Enclave Soldiers, Leon switched his Chinese Assault Rifle for his Laser Rifle. Aiming his rifle, Leon fires laser blasts at each soldier, either killing them on the spot, blowing their heads or turning them into a pile of ash.
After killing them, Leon huffed and said "Too easy."
Just then, three Sentry Bots appeared with their Gastling Guns aiming at him. Leon just muttered "Fuck."
When the bots fired, Leon quickly took cover behind a terminal and waited for an opportunity to attack. Once the Sentry Bots stopped firing, took out a Plasma Grenade, activated and threw it at the bots. Seconds later, the grenade exploded and knocked the bots off balance. Gripping his Laser Rifle, Leon fired ten shots on the Sentry Bots and they all were destroyed. Checking for more enemies, Leon walked through the hallways until he found a terminal. As he looks at the screen, he saw ten Enclave soldiers on one screen heading towards his direction.
Leon huffed and said "If they think that they can take me on with Power Armor and high powered weapons, they have one thing coming to them."
Putting his Laser Rifle away, Leon cracked his knuckles and said "Alright, what we got here."
Typing the keys on the keyboard, he closed the doors. Once he did that, he accessed the defense system and the ceiling torrents aimed at the doors. Leon rubs his chin and said "No, I think I can do better."
Looking around the room, he saw three Sentry Bots that were not function. Smiling deviously, Leon walked up to the bots and started to hardwire them. Once they were operational, the bots were making their way to the door. Once Leon heard the Enclave trying to bust through the door, he simply took a seat and just relax. As soon as the doors opened, the ten Enclave soldiers were soon showered by bullets coming from the Sentry Bots and the torrents. Seconds later, all ten Enclave laid on the floor dead. Leon laughed as he got up and started to make his way to the control room. On his way, he saw more Enclave soldiers in his path. Taking out his Blackhawk, he aims at each head and fires six shots. After killing each on in the head, Leon quickly took cover as more soldiers entered. Taking a deep breath, Leon swaps his Blackhawk for his Chinese Assault Rifle. Once the Enclave stopped firing, Leon emerged from his cover and started to fire his rifle at them. Three more clips of ammo, the Enclave were dead.
As Leon placed the rifle on his back, he laughed and said "Enclave Power Armor my ass."
After making his way to the hallways, he finally arrived at the control room. Before he was about to go in, a voice behind him said "Looks like you handled yourself."
Looking back, Leon smiled when he saw Sarah Lyons standing behind him. Leon shrugged and said "The Enclave may be smart, but I am way smarter than them. Never stood a chance."
Sarah playfully rolled her eyes and said "Is that where they control the Orbital Strike?"
Leon nodded and said "It will take some time before I can fully hack it. Can you stand outside in case anyone shows up?"
"Sure," Sarah said, "How long will it take?"
As he was accessing the computer, Leon said "Depends. It will take some time before…What a minute, I'm in."
Checking her perimeter, Sarah said "Is there a way to bring this whole place down?"
"No," Leon said, "Damn, these Enclave are busy. I mean, they have every location in the Wasteland, including the Citadel. Hold up…"
Interested, Sarah looks back and said "What is it?"
Leon replied "Can you believe these idiots? They actually put their base on the list! Ha! What a bunch of dumbasses!"
Sarah sighed and said "What can you do?"
Leon said "I can have the targeting system aim at the base. But if we do that, then we will have five minutes to get out of here."
"Got that covered," Sarah said, "There is a Vertibird in the roof. We will have plenty of time to reach there."
"Got it," Leon said, "Alright. Everything's set. Now lets…"
But before he could finish, an Enclave appeared out of nowhere and started to fire his Laser Rifle at Sarah and Leon. As Sarah got out of the way and away from the door, before Leon took out any of his weapons, the Enclave fired their rifle and the blast hits the controls. Once that happened, an alarm set off and the door immediately closed on itself. When Sarah recovered, she aimed her Laser Rifle at the Enclave and fired countless shots at them. Once they were dead, Sarah turns to Leon, only to see the door closed on her.
Trying to open it, Sarah couldn't and said "Leon! What the hell just happened?!"
Inside, Leon was accessing the computer and said "The room is on lockdown!"
"Can you open it?!" Sarah shouted.
Leon replied "The doors will open."
Sarah sighed in relief and said "Oh good."
But Leon then said "In about 30 minutes."
"What?!" Sarah cried, "But the Orbital Strike…"
"I know about that!" Leon said, "While I try to open the door, you get the hell out of here!"
Shocked by this, Sarah said "No way! I am not leaving you!"
Leon snapped at her by saying "You have no choice! You are the daughter of Elder Lyons! You cannot die here with me!"
"Then at least call off the strike!" Sarah yelled, "Can you do that?!"
Leon replied "There is nothing I can do! Once the sequence starts, there is no shutdown!"
Once he said that, Sarah's heart fell. After a moment of silence, Leon said "Forget about me Sarah. There's nothing we can do."
Tears were falling down Sarah's face and said "But…you have done so much for the Wasteland. You are a hero to everyone, Leon."
Leon sighed and said "I'm sorry, but I guess…this is it for me."
Before Sarah could say anything, Leon said "Go, get out of here. At least save yourself. Do that for me at least."
Slamming her fist to the door, Sarah sighed, and in defeat, said "It has been an honor, Leon. Goodbye friend."
With that, Sarah turns around and quickly makes her way to the roof, leaving Leon behind. Looking at the screen, he saw that he had 4 minutes left. Sighing in defeat, Leon puts away his rifle into his Pipboy sat down and waited for his time to come.
"Killed by an Orbital strike while locked in a room," Leon said to himself, "What a way to go."
Leaning back, he said "I guess…this is really it. No bullshit this time. It looks like I am going to see my parents after all."
From then on, Leon started to remember everything that has happened to him. Although he had a tough time living in the Wasteland, he regretted nothing. He has saves people's lives, got rid of the Enclave and manages to live a good life. But…he did miss his home: Vault 101. Despite helping Amata and the others for control of the Vault, Amata exiled Leon afterwards. After exchanging hated words between childhood friends…and secret lovers…Leon bid Amata farewell and that was the last time he saw her.
Shaking that thought aside, Leon crossed his arms as he looks at the time. Seeing one minute left, Leon said "It was a good run while it lasted. Just wish I could have done more."
Closing his eyes waiting for the strike to happen, he heard what sounded like a tear. Opening his eyes, he looks around to see the source of the sound. When he looks at the door, he saw a vertical line in front of the door. Getting up from the seat, when Leon was about to inspect it, the line split apart. The next part shocked Leon. For the line created a doorway! On the other side of the 'tear' was a well-furnished room that looked like it was from the Pre-War era. He could see a fireplace, clean furniture, everything. Looking back at the timer, he saw 30 seconds left.
"Let's see," Leon said, "Go into the strange portal or stay and die? Portal? Die? Fuck it."
With that, Leon ran towards the portal and jumps through it. Once he did that, he immediately felt the heat of the room on his skin. Looking back at the portal, he saw the control room one last time before the 'tear' closed in on itself and disappeared into thin air. As he sighed in relief that he survived death, he heard a female voice said "Welcome."
Alarmed by the voice, Leon looks around until he saw two people sitting on one of the couches. One of them was male while the other was female, but the two looked the same: they both had red hair, white skin and where wearing beige and brown clothes.
The woman then said "See? I told you he was going to do it."
The man replied in a disappointed way "I suppose you were right."
The woman looks at Leon and said "Please Mr. Kinston, take a seat. We have much to discuss."
Leon raised an eyebrow and said "How do you know my name?"
"All well be answered in time," the woman said.
"But for now, we must talk business," the man finished her sentence.
Leon thought "Okay, I am freaking out a bit here. But…let's see how this plays out."
Taking a seat on the couch in front of them, the woman said "Allow us to introduce ourselves, I am Rosalind Lutece and this is my brother Robert."
Leon then said "And I am guessing you are twins?"
"Indeed," Roberts said, "But onto the matter at hand. We have been observing your actions in your travels."
Rosalind then said "And we believe you are the person for the job we have in mind."
"Oh god," Leon said, "These two finish each other's sentences! If this wasn't creepy enough!"
Deciding to talk, Leon said "So…what just happen a few moments ago?"
Rosalind replied "We merely created a Tear to bring you into this world to ask you."
Robert then said "To do a job for us. Though it is a tough one…"
"But we believe you can assist us," Rosalind finished.
"Creepy as hell," Leon thought as he said "Wait, what's a Tear?"
Robert replied "You will get your answer later on. But for now, we want to hire you."
"So let me get this straight," Leon said, "You saved me from being blown up just for you to hire me?"
At the twins nodded and waited for an answer, Leon hesitated before saying "Well…you did save me from death. So…I guess it's fair to help you two."
He then thought "God, I hope I don't regret it."
Rosalind smiled as she looks at her brother and said "I told you he will accept the job."
"Of course you did," Robert said as took out a small box from the table.
As he hands Leon the box, he said "Inside the box you will find the items you need for the job."
Curious, Leon opens the box just to find a couple of things in it. The first one was a picture of an angel statue with the words 'Monument Island' on the top. The other was a large key with a picture of a cage on one side of the handle while on the other side had a picture of a bird. The next things were ten silver coins. And the last item was a picture of a girl with her back turned and her face was barely visible. When he turns the picture around, he saw the name 'Elizabeth' on it.
As Leon observed the silver coins, Robert said "Silver Eagles. You will need them for currency where you are going.
"Okay," Leon said as he puts the items away into his Pipboy, "So what is the job?"
"Simple," Rosalind said, "Free the girl in the picture."
Robert then finished by saying "And help her escape."
Thinking about it, Leon said "Sounds simple enough."
"Not quite," Rosalind said, "The angel in the picture is her tower."
Robert said "Which is located in a city called Columbia."
Rosalind then said "In the year 1912."
Leon blinked a couple times before he said "1912? What the hell? It's 2277."
"Details are unimportant," Rosalind said, "But know the job is to get the girl."
Leon shrugged and said "Alright then. Let's recap: Find the tower, get the girl and get out. Like I said, simple enough."
"We'll see," Robert said, "But before you go."
Rosalind said "You will need to dress properly."
"It's official," Leon thought, "These two creep me out!"
Robert then reached under the table once again and took out a set of clothes. From the looks of it, they look like it was from the Pre-War. Getting the set of clothes, Leon activated his Pipboy and stored it. After looking for it, he found it and activated it. As he body glowed in light, it disappeared to reveal his new set of clothes. He was now wearing brown dress shoes, beige dress pants, white dress shirt with a brown dress coat and a brown tie. Covering his Pipboy with his sleeve, Rosalind said "The glasses will have to go as well."
Sighing at the fact he can't have his glasses, since they make him look cool, he activates his Pipboy once again and puts them away, revealing his hazel color eyes. Robert then said "And now you are all set."
Rosalind said "And remember, whatever you do, don't get caught."
As Leon gave them a two finger salute, there was a ripping sound. When Leon looks over, he saw another Tear open and looked beyond it. From the looks of it, it looked like heaven. There were a couple of statues that belonged to a temple, fresh green grass and bushes of roses. Looking back at the twins, the two of them nodded and Rosalind said "Good luck."
Robert then said "You will need it."
When Leon nodded, he looks at the Tear, took a deep breath and jumps through it. After the Tear closes, Rosalind looks at her brother and said "See? I told you he has hazel eyes."
And that is it for now! I would love to write more, but I have other stories to update and write up. So I hope you all enjoy this prequel and I will see you all soon. Until then, please review!
