Fallout Miapolis
"Diary log# C-M 01-05-77. Well, what it seems hours, I finally made it here. I'll call this place, The Magic Wasteland. But the locals here would call this the Everglade Wasteland. Temperature will be very warm and it may be a bright day. Somehow, can't say I'm living like the Pre-War times. But civilization is returning back to normal, and I'm glad to finally get a chance to travel to this new boom town. Even so, I hope to seek a new home, a new life. I heard of Miapolis, the biggest building ever still standing on the face of humanity. The building that never fall from the Great War, everyone wants a piece of action, including me. Maybe one day, if I ever got a full room to myself with a Nuka-Cola drink on the side, I'm set."
After my diary, I arrive in the Opa-Locka Executive Airport. The plane made the touchdown and park near the terminal. I got out and head straight for my baggage claim, knowing that I'm just a few minutes to see the Everglade Wasteland, or not a wasteland anymore. That word will soon fade out in the history that used to exist. I grab my bag, and as soon I was about to leave this airport, a violent shake just happen. I stumble across on the floor and then I realize something is going on outside. It was a bright light, but it then went to dark as something hit me, I blackout.
Narrator
War, war never changes.
In 1000AD, China invented the gunpowder. Since then the power of the gunpowder, the course of human history turns for the dramatic battle that people fight over the cause they survive on. Gunpowder transforms into combat weapons that blaze the land for centuries to come. But none has ever envision the power of uranium and plutonium combine, and with that, the Great War. Destroying almost everything in this world, turning into a scorch earth for years to come. Human survivalist came in a new chapter to repopulate the world and by 2380, the American world returns to be a habitual world and thus make way for a new generation of humanity. Transportation is now accessible by cars, boats, and even airplanes. The network communication is revive, tribals and groups grew to all make a perfect group, enough to revive a full city into a fully function city. America is returning back to its former power little by little, advancing new technologies and creating new inventions that can help the new world flourish.
As for the new inventions, the bullets and guns that made history, no longer comes into the new world. Instead, a new breed of new energy weapons expands as the next combat fighting tools that rages in the new generation, ones that makes peace, found new settlements, or cause a bitter rival. You on the other hand, your a traveler. The one who seeks a new life from where you came from, ended up here in the Everglade Wasteland. You stumble upon here in an unnatural welcome into this new land you seek. For the nature of this is happen, the unspeakable act happen again. In 2477, the second Great War happen, only much shorter. The second Fallout, the new generation of what seems to be a recovering civilization, now again come in ruins again. You, the Traveler, must face a new shape of the land, for there is no going back where you came from. You came here for Miapolis, a city of a new life for you, and your determine and hope to find it still there. Or will it not be.
Quest - It Only Hurts For A Little While
As soon as I can recover from myself, I feel a bit dizzy and yet find myself on a bed. I try to get up, but someone else help me up.
?"Whoa there, take it easy. Your still in pretty rough shape. Just sit still, I'll have you back to your feet in no time. Your lucky that your not completely dead or else, burnt to nothing. Now, can you remember your name?"
?"I'm, I'm Chris."
?"Chris, thats a nice name. Right now, records shows that you're a male."
Chris"What do you mean?"
?"You've been badly hurt, having a couple of surgeries. We try our best to patch you up. But we need one more surgery and your good to go. So, why you just take a walk around here. I'll give this Stimpack, now you can walk freely as you please."
I got up and I can walk around. This place seems to be like a vault.
?"Anything you need?"
Chris"Where am I?"
?"Your in Vault 35, a safe haven."
Chris"Who are you and whats really going on here?"
Harley"I'm Doctor Harley, your in the medic bay here in Vault 35. What were your really thinking about?"
Chris"I remember that I got the bag and then something happen, like there was an earthquake."
Harley"Oh! Now I remember that part. Look, when all of that was happening, the nuclear holocaust happen. It was big, something worst than the Great War or something. I believe you were caught in the blast and we took you here to patch you up. But the land out there, its a new wasteland all over again. And you've been in here for about 6 months or so."
Chris"New wasteland?! 6 months!? Are you kidding me?!"
Harley"Hey, you survive and nothing else did survive out there. You should be consider lucky to be alive and yes, this situation is worse. What, you got a family up here?"
Chris"No, I'm here for a new place to stay, like Miapolis."
Harley"Miapolis is still standing if I remember correctly. But you just need one more surgery before you can leave."
Chris"Ok, I'll have the surgery then."
Harley"Its not until for an hour or so when its time for your surgery. But, your free to walk around and get to know some people here."
She goes and check for medic supplies. Harley, probably older than me, wearing a doctor suit, looks more black and she is bald with little much hair. I walk out of the clinic and try to figure out a path to somewhere else. A hallway I enter, then I walk across the door and saw a group of soldiers, they were talking and repairing their weapons. I was in the dinner room, some people here were eating. I notice those people were wearing clothes and others with blue jumpsuits with the number 35. Then one of soldier cam up to me.
?"Hey, your the guy that was knock out for six months. I can't believe your still alive, thats pretty tough. And you're not turn into a ghoul or something."
Chris"Thanks I guess. Who are you?"
Trey"I'm Trey, one of the Brotherhood of Steel. Everyone in this vault is talking about you."
Chris"Why are they talking about me?"
Trey"Well, since from the blast, people here are in question that maybe your going to be a super mutant or something horrible. Then they call us to make sure that what you turn into doesn't happen at all. And now your here, its perfectly clear that your not a super mutant or something else. Ha, the people grew their fears again. Its like the first nuclear holocaust, worrying about themselves if something is going to happen and all."
Chris"Wow, was I that of a threat?"
Trey"Sure was, and now your not."
Chris"What are you guys doing now that I'm not a threat?"
Trey"Now we leave this place and see if anyone is in trouble. It's a harsh place now, mostly because I never seen so many raiders I have encounter through my life."
Chris"What should I be more worry outside?"
Trey"Mostly raiders. Be-careful with slavers and super mutants, they're mostly everywhere. I suggest you get be ready for a fight."
Chris"Well, I hope you and your brothers stay safe out there."
Trey"Thanks friend. Maybe we'll meet again, until then, have my laser pistol and some microfusion cell's ammo. I hope you do well outside."
Chris"See you later, friend."
Trey"Yeah, take care."
A Brotherhood of Steel, I heard of them before. They did came from the west and then spread to the east and the east was disconnected from the west, but the west then became weak and thus were all slaughter by some group over there. And I don't think in this case, they will ever survive again. So far, I hope the Brotherhood of Steel from different regions still survive from the new holocaust. I wonder what would I find outside, more scary stuff or just empty fire land. Little while, after I ate some sweet rolls, I went back to get the final surgery. It took me almost half a day to finish my final surgery. Funny thing, I never know what was the final part of my surgery. After the surgery, I got back up and I feel much more better.
Harley"And now your all patch up. You should be much better for enduring the outside world."
Chris"May I ask what was that last surgery was all about?"
Harley"Your skull was fracture, so we need to fix it up. It was hard though, so we took time and careful hands to do it. And its successful, your all better now."
Chris"Thanks Doc."
Harley"Its Harley, come by anytime if you need some medical stuff."
I left the clinic and go grab my stuff. Before I left the vault, I need to be sure if I'm really ready. I check my bag if there is anything I have. I have a ice cold Nuka-Cola, laser pistol, some ammo, a diary holotape recorder, bobby pins, and some sugar bomb cereal boxes. I check their market store in the Upper Deck Park. The dome was big enough, and there was trees, the grass, and people buying stuff here. I do have enough caps to buy some stuff. There was something interesting in the clothing shop.
Kenny"Hello customer, I'm Kenny. Welcome the Lifeless Attire, anything interest you?"
I check around and found a tan jacket. I bought it and its mines now. Right after Kenny gave me the jacket, I saw something behind the counter.
Chris"Hey, whats that over there?"
Kenny"Oh this? This is the new Pip Boy 4000. It's a rare item since it's only been made one, which is this one. Funny story on how I got this, it was years back. The Enclaves were scavenging in the Homestead Air Reserve Base, and they specifically want that Pip Boy 4000. Once they have it, they were ambush by dozens of Brotherhood of Steels. One Enclave soldier escape from the battle and quickly headed north. And then nobody knows what killed him when my team of scavengers found his body. We took his stuff, including the Pip-Boy 4000. His holograph was with him, telling us how he was outnumber and he will reach to Chicago no matter what. Ha, for an Enclave, I say he's got more guts than I ever had."
Chris"Wow, so whats so special about this one over the 3000 model?"
Kenny"This one is unique, this one,… can talk."
Chris"It, talks?"
Kenny"Sure does, and it also has its own personality memory. Its simple, once you adventure with it, it grows a personality whatever your actions you did. To erase and start all over, simply go to options and press the erase button, no harm feelings, like a gas mileage rest."
Chris"Oh wow."
Kenny"Yeah, you can even change voice with different types and tones to mess with. And other part, its customizable. You can equip with new things, if you know how to though."
Chris"Thats pretty impressive. How much for it?"
Kenny"Nothing, just take it, its all yours."
Chris"Really?! Wow! Thanks Kenny!"
Kenny"Your welcome. I'm not an adventurer anymore, and you probably this for now on. Take care of it."
I put it on, and its perfect fit. Then I went to medic shop and bought some Stimpacks, Rad-Aways, and Rad-Xs. After I change to my new clothes, even with a free souvenir of the Vault 35 Jumpsuit on, now I get ready to leave the vault. The operator to the door open the steel ton door, shrieking out loud from metal to metal. The machine grab the door, pull it out and turn it away for a clear path. The outside was a hanger with holes of light while I was climbing the stairs to be in neutral ground. The stairs close itself as I watch it sealed away from me. I look up in the hanger, holes on the roof were brighting a bit in the hanger. But once I open the hanger door, I bright light shines through me as I was now in a different world, the Everglade Wasteland. What I see, a new wasteland, and no sign of life.
