Chapter One
Jakob Mcobb had always been a morning person. He would be up at the crack of dawn watching the sunrise and just relaxing to prepare for the day ahead. Sadly,waking up from being cryogenically frozen. For a couple hundred years is not quite the refreshing feeling that most people would assume it was. "What the hell ?!" Jake thought as he slowly woke up from his unexpected 200+ year nap. Shaking his head and wiping his eyes, he slowly looked around his small metal prison. "Well shit" he thought as he gazed out the of tiny window and listened the the sirens. After finding the emergency escape handle, he quickly stepped out of the pod. "Why aren't the rest of these people getting out" he wondered as he saw the other pods. Walking around, he saw that every one of the other pods had failed very recently and killed the occupant inside. "Such a tragedy", he thought, seeing a beautiful young mother and infant in the pod across from his. "Vault tech has a lot to answer for" he angrily swore, walking around to check the other pods. Wandering into the overseer's office after finding everyone in the vault, he sat heavily in the huge chair and simply zoned out. Thinking of all the people that needlessly died because of a stupid oversight. Finally, pulling himself from his thoughts, he started to explore the other rooms and assemble what provisions he could for his journey to whatever awaited him outside the vault. Finding three R93 10mm pistols, several boxes of ammo and extra clips and an assortment of medical supplies like stimpacks and medx. Returning to the overseers office, he immediately noticed the large case on the wall of a locked cage room on his right. He immediately found some bobby pins and a screwdriver and went to work. "Come on, finger don't fail me now " he thought as he thanked God that he had been a prankster in his younger days. Finally picking the lock and getting into the room, he stared at the huge weapon looking object on the wall. While being a commando in the U.S army had brought him into contact with most weapons, he had never seen anything like this before. "Huh" he thought "a glass case with a huge lock on it, why not just smash the glass?" Taking a piece of pipe he found in the maintenance room, he quickly smashed the glass and carefully picked up the weapon and its ammo out of the case. "Well, I guess I'll find out what it does sometime" gathering his supply into a duffle bag which he quickly slung sideways over his back. Walking slowly towards the elevator he found a pipboy on the of the piles of bone that used to be a person. "Huh this could come in handy" he thought, putting it on his wrist. Standing in the elevator waiting for it to activate, he hoped the whatever deity that was up there that what he would find on the surface was better than what he found down here.
Well, that's the first chapter. Hope everyone liked it and please leave review and comments for me.
