May 4th 2254 - The new folks
Chapter 1 the old array
In his own-made shack at Raider Wharf, Richard was resting from his exhibition from yesterday at the mount Mabel campground. While he was lying on his mattress sleepily, He looked outside his small window. He knew that he has to scavenge again, because at the campground there was more junk than any useful supplies and even the junk was worthless. So he had to choose for another place to scavenge for supplies. He rose himself from his bed. He still had problems with his left leg since that day a mole rat bit in it. He walked to his torn backpack and picked his own with charcoal written map out of it. The map was a empty cardboard with some drawings on it that shows what kind of buildings those are. He looked on his map and he saw that he scavenged all the places in his area, except only one place. The old SatCom Array. He hoped there are some supplies, otherwise he had to move somewhere else where it won't be safe. When he thought about being safe, he thought about his parents. who were slaughtered by super mutants. He saw the whole scene again in front of him. While he was hiding as a child under the bed of his parents, he saw his mother's head being splattered by a sledgehammer and he had to hold his hand against his mouth, so he couldn't scream. When he didn't hear anymore super mutants laughing and walking he decided to crawl away from his parents bed out so he could carefully look outside. He didn't see anything so he decided to walk outside to find his dad, but when he finds his dad. He was already too late. He finds his dad, burned on a pile of tires. Richard finally woke up. It was a dream, no, more like a nightmare and this repeats all the time. He had to hurry up. This 'day dream' cost him his morning.
When he walked to the SatCom Array, he thought about a place without any super mutants, a place without slavers, he thinks about a place without any threat. When he arrives at the SatCom Array, he sees the door of the northeast satellite tower. He looked around if there were any raiders or other threads nearby, but he didn't see anyone. He slowly walked inside the building, to see if there is some kind of person ready to scare him. When he was inside, he saw a large amount of canned food. He's so happy, he acted like he hit the jackpot, but when he was about to scream he heard a voice from upstairs.
