Welcome to my first Borderlands story. Where we follow the adventure of Borderlands 2 through the eyes of my character. Hope you enjoy it.
Disclaimer: I only own my character and what Eden-7 is like on the planet surface.
Prologue: The 7th Vault Hunter
Handsome Jack was sitting in his office on the Hyperion Moonbase looking over some paperwork requests for parts needed for one of the operations on Pandora. Most were granted but some asking for time off were denied unless they wanted to be strangled.
He was waiting on Angel to contact him on this new potential Vault Hunter she has found, he didn't feel like he truly needed another one as he already had six Vault Hunters he picked out but never could have too many.
Soon Angel appears on his computer screen and he puts the paperwork down and asked "Alright Angel, who's this Vault Hunter candidate you found?"
"His name is Alex from Eden-7 and…" Angel began but Jack cut her off.
"Wait, wait Eden-7? This guy is one of our own. I know for a fact Eden-7 is one of the main Hyperion factory planets and there are no bandits or masked assassins or sixteen year old girls who cut there arm off to have a way to summon there pet robot oh and no sirens from what I know." Jack said
"Play Alex file 1" Angel said and the video appears on a holo screen for Jack to see
[File Playing]
In the video it showed a small five year boy walking the street with his mother.
"Wait? This is him? He's like what five years old and he is going to be a Vault Hunter?" Jack said confused as he watches the video play
"This video was from fifteen years ago." Angel explained "Reason I'm playing this will be shown"
Suddenly a Stalker was running through the streets and people ran in panic, the small boy was separated from his parents and tripped. He was lying on the street when the Stalker appears in front of him.
The boy screams and raises his hand and a glow emitted from it. Suddenly the Stalker was calm and sniffs the hand. The boy looks at it confused. The Stalker then licks the hand making the kid laugh as it ticked.
The onlookers as well as the boy's parents and police chasing the creature looked on amazed and confused.
[File End]
Jack looked confused as the file finishes. He looks at Angel and then asked "What the hell was that Angel?! That kid should have been Stalker chow!"
"It has been revealed that Alex processes powers used by the people of Eden in ancient times" Angel explained
"Oh you mean those people my granny used to read to me before bed? Come on your pulling my leg aren't you Angel? There a children's fairy tale" Jack said grinning, his reply came with files on his holo screen with tests that were done on Alex proving he did in fact have these powers. The grin wiped from his face Jack said "Or…maybe not….So what do we know from these tests? Jack asked as he looked through the files.
"From what we learned Alex may be the last of these kind given the fact he's the only one to show up after thousands of years and he may just have inherited the power from his ancestors." Angel said
"Yeah that will put him on the same terms as sirens not in the power but in rarity I guess but we may want to keep an eye out for anymore of these nature guys…just in case." Jack said "What else?"
"As I'm sure you know the Nature people can control creatures that match their spirit essence, Alex's is green so he can tame creatures with green spirit essence." Angel said
"Interesting…Wait how were we able to do all these tests on a simple citizen?" Jack asked noticing that he wasn't halfway through all the files.
"Alex is the son of one of the sales mangers on Eden-7 so it was easy to be allowed to do all the tests our scientist wanted to do to be sure he was what he is" Angel replied
"Must have not be convinced so easily as they did some of these test five times and got the same results." Jack said interested in this kid. He then said "Okay Angel, you got my interest but what makes you believe he's a Vault Hunter?"
"I have some video files one was yesterday and the other is today" Angel said to him
"Play them" Jack said serious look on his face.
Short chapter I know but this is my first attempt on a story like this and I just want to pace myself. I promise next chapter will be longer.
Please Review, suggest and no flames please.
