I do not own Fallout: New Vegas, the known characters or the already created ideas. All that outstanding work goes to Bethesda.
A/N: This is my first story that I'm publishing on fanfic so it may be rough around the edges. This story current takes place a year after the events of the final battle for Hoover Dam. Enjoy and PM me with advice or questions!
Kaiden Flare, the Courier. The one, who beat the NCR, crippled the Legion and slain Caesar and ended Mr. Houses rule in the process of making New Vegas independent power. He now faces a whole mess of challenges ahead.
Known Location: NCR Correctional facility
Clark and his colleagues gathered in the lobby room of the NCRCF. The Powder gangers, Viper gang, Greaser gang, Jackal gang and the Scorpion gang were all assembled. Clark, the leader of the Vipers gang and now this whole group first saw these raiders as a leaderless and unorganized pack of killers but now with the right leader they could become the next deadliest gang the Mojave has ever seen
Everyone populated the lobby with chatter about what this was about. Most guessed they were pulling some heist of some sort but that isn't what Clark had in mind. Clark pushed his sunglasses up to the center of his forehead and held his hand up to halt the chatter.
"Quiet down everyone, let's get started. We've all seen what's changing around the Mojave." Clark started. "The NCR and Legion have been pushed out and now New Vegas has become independent."
Clark stood up silently and took off his rawhide cowboy hat standing firm
"Kaiden Flare is leading this independent nation." Clark finished.
Everyone started cursing the Courier's name instantly. Some started suggesting how they should kill him as well.
"That bastard we should gut him!" One shouted
"Rip him apart!"
"Enough!" Clark said slamming his fist on the table. Everyone fell silent and looked to Clark. Clark shared as much as the bitterness as the raiders had with the Courier. Though unlike the rest of them, Clark wanted to weaken him before finally ending his existence instead of running head first to New Vegas where he had a securitron army to back him.
"Everyone will get a chance to torture him but for now here's how we are going to weaken him."
Known Location: Lucky 38
Kaiden sat silently in his chair in the kitchen of the Lucky 38 as everyone debated on the topics at hand which included how to handle the issues in Freeside, how to get the Boomer's to agree a permanent alliance with the NVA (New Vegas Alliance) which consisted of Kaiden and his allies, The BOS and the FOA. Other matters involved most of the new territory that freed up by getting rid of the Legion and NCR. Other matters they we're discussing were building their own human army instead of relying on the securitrons and so.
"It sounds like a good idea…but how are we going to get candidates?" Arcade asked looking at Boone, Kaiden and Elder McNamara. Boone looked to Kaiden for an answer as well as the Elder.
"Well we can always hang up flyers." Kaiden suggested.
"That sounds good to me." Boone added.
"I agree with the Courier. I could have the Brotherhood scribes hang posters up." Elder McNamara said. Kaiden nodded and smiled. He liked how everything was coming along with most of their plans. Cass stormed in instantly greeting everyone and then going into the refrigerator to grab a Nuka cola. She tossed it in her pack and made her way out. "See you guys tomorrow."
Kaiden jumped up and followed by her before she left. "Cass where are you off to again?" He asked. There was a little concern in his voice and Cass picked up on it.
"GoodSprings, I'm guarding a caravan why so worried?" She asked.
"Ha me worried? When am I ever worried about something?"
Cass laughed and crossed her arms. "What is it hotshot?"
Kaiden didn't want to mention what happened to the old caravan she led a year ago because he didn't want to reopen new wounds. Even though now Kaiden gave Cass two securitrons and had Rex accompany her. Cass raised her eyebrows and realized where he was going with this.
"Look I'll be fine. Now that you have Rex go with me and two securitrons I have the best back up in the world."
"Alright just you better come back." He said smiling. Cass laughed and the elevator opened up. Rex came running out of Kaiden's room and into the elevator when Cass whistled for him. She entered it and turned around to look at Kaiden.
"So you can try and woo me again? Told you before, Courier nothing will happen between us." She finished and winked at him before the doors closed. Kaiden smiled and walked back to the kitchen where everyone was still debating.
