After resting in the G.N.R building I decided to head back to Megaton before heading to Rivet City. I went back the same way I came finding more ghouls. When I got back to Megaton the people gave things for defusing the bomb. I had to replace this my Vault Jumpsuit that I had been repairing since my first super mutant attack. I head up to Carder Side Supply and talk to Moira Brown. She was a bit strange she had the idea of making a wasteland survival guide and ask me about life in the vault. I just stared off into the distance thinking about my life in the Vault and Amata. I told her that life was great in the vault until my dad left. She gave me an Armored Vault 101 Jumpsuit and Leather Armor. I thanked her and left the store with new armor and some more weapons and ammo.
After a week or so in Megaton I began heading towards Rivet City. I decided to follow the river and encountered some raiders and a group of Mercs form an organization called Talon Company. They were not the nicest people they had a contract on me for being a good person. Putting them down was as easy as putting down raiders. I continue falling the river until I say what looked like the Jefferson Memorial.
The area was infested with super mutants. I had to cross the memorial to get to Rivet City so there was no time to waste. After killing the mutants in my way I proceed to the Rivet City. Three Dog was right there was people living the inside the beached aircraft carrier. There was only one way in that was through a bridge that was extend from the carrier to the platform they built so they were well protected. I was aloud in to look for any information about my father. I had no idea what I was about to hear.
