Fallout: what a lovely world
AN: welcome back guys I know I have been gone for a few days doing family stuff but I am back now. However I have decided to revamp this story. After playing fallout 4 I realized the commonwealth has much more potential than the capital wasteland so I am moving the story there.
AU timeline: project purity never happened so all other fallout games are canon except for fallout 3
I don't own fallout
Pairings (Sole survivor x female Deathclaw)
October 23, 2077 (2 hours before nuclear launches from US, China and USSR)
Alex smith opened his eyes and smacked the alarm clock on his night stand with a soft grown before standing up and walking into the shower. After taking a quick shower he went to the sink and shaved. His normally a deep black were now a light amber that was shining with three tomes slowly spinning around his pupil he shook his head before he felt a pair of arms encircle him. He stiffened for a second before relaxing when he saw that it was his wife.
"Hey hon." She mumbled sleepily; making him chuckle lightly before stepping aside allowing her to take her spot in front of the mirror. He walked out into the hallway; he had a bad feeling about today. Most people would ignore that instinct but he never did it had kept him alive through his rough childhood and then through the war for anchorage. Deciding to distract himself he went to the kitchen and sat down pouring himself some cereal. Looking at the books he snorted.
"Sugar bombs one hundred percent your daily value of sugar." Chuckling softly to himself he quickly ate before he heard his robotic butler say.
"Good morning sir would you like your coffee now?" casworth asked. Nodding while picking up the paper and quickly leafing through it. He sighed to himself mumbling "more of the same" before putting the paper down and standing up taking his coffee with him over to the couch and sitting down. He was about to turn the TV on when he heard a knock on the door. Sighing he stood up and made his way to the door and opened it. A man an overcoat stepped forward.
"Good afternoon sir I have been trying to get a hold of you're for some time." The man said enthusiastically. Alex just went with it.
"Well I am glad you caught up to me." Alex said.
"Yes well I was wondering if you would sign this you and your family have been selected for vault 111." The man said. It all clicked for Alex now the feelings.
"Yes please I want to sign." The man held out the clipboard and Alex scanned it quickly before signing it and handing it back to the man.
"I will just run this over to the vault congratulations for being prepared for the future." The man said before Alex closed the door. And walked back over to the couch and turned the TV on to the news.
"And in other news there are reports of unusually cold temperatures today. However we believe it will heat back up before Halloween." The news anchor said making Alex frown slightly before shrugging it off. He heard his son crying coming room quickly standing up he made his way to his sons room and allowed his son to play with his fingers making him chuckle softly before he heard Nora chuckling at seeing the interaction. Truly Alex thought he would never be a good father as his dad was abusive and his mom was a drug addict. The only family he really had had been his company. And then he had met Nora on leave. The two got to talking and as the week passed Nora invited him over to her house and things had then just escalated after a couple of bottles of wine. He went back into the force and a few weeks later then war was over and he came home to find Nora waiting at the terminal looking pregnant. Needless to say he passed out then and their only to wake up to a laughing Nora. The two had gotten married a few weeks after that and then about two weeks ago they had Shaun. Slowly he was brought out of his thoughts when he heard Codsworth calling for them. Nora grabbed Shaun and they headed out to the living room. Alex just heard the tail end of the news casters words.
"And we have confirmed detonations in New York… oh god." The reporter said breaking down in tears before the screen flicked to a please stand by screen.
"We need to go now!" he barked out to Nora making her jump before she nodded as they headed out and headed for vault 111. They did not stop to chat only ran for the vault upon making it up the hill they found the vault tech rep running the other way yelling about how he was going to report this. Alex and Nora quickly walked up to the gate.
"Let us in we are on the list." Alex barked in his "military voice" making the solder stiffen when he noticed who Alex's chest. Quickly scanning the list he stepped aside allowing them entrance. Alex and Nora fallowed the vault tech people and stood on the platform.
"That's it send it down." He said just as a nuclear explosion happened behind them.
"Oh god!" Nora cried in fear.
"Send it down now!" the vault tech person shouted again. A second later they were lowered just enough that the shock wave went right over them. A few minutes of traveling in silence and they arrived in the vault proper. Stepping out Alex made his way over to a woman handing out vault suites.
"Before going any deeper in you will need a vault suit." She said before handing him one he nodded awkwardly before heading deeper into the vault only half listening to the scientist as he said something about orientation and decontamination. Nora stepped into the decontamination pod across from him mouthing I love you. He heard the computer voice say.
"Residents secure Cryostasis beginning." The voice said. Alex's eyes widened before he felt the temperature drop and he was out cold. It felt like seconds when he awoke again to see a group of people in weird hazmat suites. At first he thought it was vault tech coming to wake them up until a man dressed in weird armor stepped up to the cryo pod with Nora and Shaun was in and open it. He watched as one of the people stepped forward to try and take Shaun only for Nora to refuse and struggle. Alex's eyes widened as the man shot her point blank with a shotgun before taking Shaun. He felt the cryo stasis activate again.
"Critical damage to vault all residence are advised to evacuate." The voice said. Alex groaned before stepping out of the cryostasis chamber. He stumbled a little before hobbling over to his wife's cryo chamber.
"Come on there has to be some kind of release!" he shouted desperately. Finally the pod opened he stepped forward but he already knew she was dead. Felling a tear slowly fall down his check he reached in and took her ring.
"I will find the people who did this I swear it." He said. He stepped back taking a shaky breath before walking down the hall. He came to a corridor with giant roaches. After killing it he stared blankly at it.
"What the ever loving fuck… giant roaches?!" he said to himself before collecting himself again and turning his head down a corridor and found the cafeteria. He walked in only to find the place ransacked he sighed before walking over to the terminal. He quickly loaded it up before scrolling down and ejecting the game tape. He sighed while thinking to himself sometimes it is the little things. After walking for a few minutes he found a 10 mm pistol quickly picking it up he loaded it before moving on. He made his way through the vault killing roaches left, right and center. Finally, he made his way to an admin like area. He quickly scanned the room before noticing that there was another 10mm pistol quickly picking it up he swept the rest of the area finding some food and Stimpacks as well as a military back pack. Thanking the hevans he put all of his things in it. Felling more confident he walked into the next room and thanked the heavens that it was the vault door. After killing all the roaches he tried to activate the release only for the computer to say that he needed a pip-boy. Cursing his luck he kicked a pile of bones out of frustration until he noticed one right there on the corpse he quickly reached down and took it and strapped it on and loaded it up. A few seconds later it booted up and he turned around and plugged the cable from the pip-boy into the terminal door. He had to cover his ears as the door made a loud grinding noise. About minute the door opened and he stepped out onto the lift. It took a few minutes but finally he reached the surface he had to shield his eyes from the rays of light but when he opened them he saw a giant creature standing before him.
