Chapter 1

A/N: Hello everyone, first of all My WIFI SUCKS! that is why both of the lord of the rings books are on hold once again because I don't want to do them on my phone. This is my fallout 4 fanfic. This is going to show some spoilers on the railroad path. And I will add some extra dialgoue to the parts in the game that doesn't have much, but it will all be pretty close to the actual game's dialogue but if I mess up don't kill me, my memory isn't perfect. Anyways thanks for reading, sorry again about the WiFi situation I will get it fixed somehow.

War. War never changes. In the year 1945 my great great grandfather wondered when he would get to go home to his wife and the son he never seen. He got his wish when the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The world awaited Armageddon, but something miraculous happened. Instead of using atomic energy to destroy it was used as a limitless source of power. People had luxuries once thought the realm of science fiction. Domestic robots, fusion powered cars, and portable computers. But one day people woke from the American dream. Power consumption had led to a shortage of every major resource. The world unraveled, the year is now 2077 and I fear for my wife and my infant son. Because if my time in the army taught me one thing, it's that war, war never changes.

I woke up with a start. Nightmares from my time in the army, the doctor says I have mild PTSD(Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) I went to the bathroom and decided to practice my opening line "War never changes" my wife Nora comes up behind me, "your gonna do great at the veterans hall tonight honey." I smile, "You think?" She answers "Yes, now hurry up and stop hogging the mirror." I take a quick glance at the razor and ask her, "Hey, do you think I should get rid of the beard?" She answers, "that is strictly between you, that razor, anrobot." I chuckle at her being that cheeky woman that I know and love. I decide to leave it as it is. I go outside the bathroom and into our kitchen and I am instantly greeted by Codsworth, our family robot butler, "good morning sir, here is your coffee and morning paper, just delivered." I take the cup and paper and say, "thanks Codsworth." He replies with, "proud to serve sir." I nod at him to dismiss him. He really is a very faithful robot. I read through the paper and sigh to myself, "more of the same." That being the lingering threat of war breaking out over the next year. I put the paper down and sit on the watch the news the weather report is on now saying it will be sunny all the way through Halloween. I hear the baby crying in the back room, I hear Codsworth "Ah, looks like someone has made a stinky, I shall tend to young Shaun." Nora spoke, "I was nervous at first but Codsworth is really good with Shaun." The doorbell rings. Nora says "Hey could you get that its probably that salesman looking for you." I respond, "Oh Jesus I'm at the mercy of a salesman." She shoots me a glare as I open the door. "Good morning, Vault-Tech calling." I respond "good morning." He says, "Isn't it, just look at that sky out there. Now I know you are a busy man so I won't take much of your time. I have come to tell you that because of your family's service to our country you have been selected to enter the local vault. Vault 111." I speak up, "are you sure there is room for my entire family?" He says, "Of course, minus your robot naturally. It is just a matter of filling out paperwork." I smile and say, "well, I can't wait for the world to end. Why don't you come in and have a seat while I fill this out?" I sit down at the table and fill out info forms for all my family members, gave them to the Vault-Tech Rep and he was off. My wife says, "It's peace of mind, that's worth a little paperwork isn't it?" I answer back, "for you and Shaun, no price is too high." She answers back, "good answer." I say, "I have my moments." Codeworth comes down the hall and says, "Mister Joseph, Shaun has been changed but absolutely refuses to calm down, I think he requires that paternal affection you seem to be so good at." Nora starts to get up but I stop her, "I got this one, babe." She sits back down and I go down the hall to Shaun's room. I bend down to him in his crib, "hey, how's my little guy doing?" He calms down and I hear Nora's voice behind me. "How are the two most important men in my life doing? Spin the mobile a bit, he loves that." I spin the mobile and Shaun laughs. Nora comes up to the crib. "Hey little guy, much better huh." She turns around and speaks to me, "I was wondering if we could go to the park a little later. Weather should hold up." I respond, "sure sounds like fun." Codsworth calls from the front of the house, "Sir, Mum, you should come see this." Nora yells out "Codsworth, what's wrong?" I go to the front of the house and hear the T.V. "And yes flashes blinding flashes, sounds of explosions. We're trying to get confirmation, we seemed to have lost contact with affiliate stations. We have coming in confirmed reports I repeat confirmed reports of nuclear detonations in New York and Pennsylvania. My God." The TV went dead and a siren started to sound and I yelled, "We need to get to the vault, NOW!" Nora said to me, "I've got Shaun let's go." We exit our house and follow people trying to get to the vault. We reach a gate that people are trying to get through I push through the people and say to the guard, "We need to get in." He glares at us, "Names." I say, "Joseph Bryan, Nora Bryan, and Shaun Bryan." He confirms our names and lets us in. We reach a gear-shaped platform. And we are instructed to stand in the center. Nora stands in front of me and says, "we're gonna be o.k., I love you." I answer, "I love you too." Then a nuclear bomb goes off in the background as is shown by the mushroom cloud. As the platform goes beneath the ground I see the shockwave of the bomb hit the world above.
