As the sun was setting, Sam was beginning to panic. The sun began to set and with it came a cold night. The sun was what gave her warmth as her body felt cold; it let her know where her enemies were and what they could possibly be doing. Now as it was dark, she would have to face a cold night, and won't know if her enemies will discover her or not. To top it off, she lost too much blood. She might fall asleep, and might not wake up. She wishes she never chose to explore the North.
Earlier that day, Sam was at Megaton, asking people if they knew any place worth exploring. Moira Brown, the owner of Craterside Supply in Megaton, told her to that Old Olney was a place worth going to. She said that no one lived there and that there can be technology and weapons worth a lot to any adventurer, if they were able to risk encountering the Enclave on the way over there. Lately, the Enclave have been exploring the Capital Wasteland, searching for something. They don't like ANYBODY, especially Wastelanders, to get near them or any of their things. They are very violent, taking down Raiders, Caravans, Wanderers, and even having turf wars with Talon Company. Moira told her to be on the lookout for them and be careful with the radiation before smiling. Sam, never having seen one, wasn't that scared.
Sam asked Moira for ammo, repaired her weapons and armor, and bought any and all medical supplies and food she thought she'd need for the trip. She went to her house and went to sleep early. In the morning, she grabbed her things, and asked her robotic butler, Wadsworth, for a couple bottles of Purified Water, a rare and expensive drink. She left Megaton and headed North. It took her half a day, and some sneaking to get within the view of Old Olney. Something didn't seem right to Sam. Just seeing that "deserted" town made her feel that there was some reason nobody lived there anymore. She saw a highway near the town and decided to scale it and scope the town for any signs of life. She walked up the ramp of the highway until she came across a gap within the road. Judging by her own height, a mere five-foot two inches, she guessed the gap was at least seven feet long, a distance she knew she couldn't cover by jumping. She took out her Sniper Rifle and used one of the burnt-out cars as support for looking through her scope towards the town.
Her jaw dropped and she nearly dropped her rifle at what she saw. Sam has seen many creatures. From Mirelurk Kings, to Super Mutant Behemoths, to Albino Radscorpions, but never what she saw that moment. A bipedal, humanoid creature roughly 9 to 10 feet tall with 12-inch claws and horns on their heads stood 100 to 150 yards away from her. Sam loaded a shot into the rifle's chamber, took a couple deep breathes and shot at the creature's head. The shot echoed through the air and Sam watched the beast fall. She reloaded and looked at her fresh kill, but it wasn't dead. It got up and glared at her. Even from far away, she could tell it knew she was on the highway. They stared at each other for what seemed like days, before it roared toward her direction and charged.
Sam pointed and shot the beast three more times before it was lost under the highway. She could hear the stomps the creature made as it was heading towards the road up to her. Sam, in a panic, jumped into one of the surrounding ruined cars and hid. The creature made its way to her position and stood there. Sam felt her heart pounding away with fear as she heard it step closer..., closer..., and closer to the car she hidden in. She looked up through the window and stared right into the pale eye of the beast. It roared and tried swiping at her but Sam quickly ducked down into the car to the floor of the car and put her hands over her head, her face eyeing the carpet. She felt a sharp pain on her back and saw blood dripping from where the creature had struck her and screamed in both fear and pain as the creature slashed and swiped its claws at the car, trying to tear it apart to get to Sam…, and then she heard the sound of the creature walking away. Sam cautiously and fearfully raised her head up to the window and saw the creature running head first to the car. Then, a loud crash and the car moved. Slowly but surely, the creature was now pushing the car towards the gap in the highway!
It was ramming the car with its horns towards the hole; towards a drop was a good 150 feet down and she was getting nearer to it. Sam, in a final effort, took out her 10mm Pistol and started unloading bullets at the creature wherever she could. This only made it angry and the creature growled loudly and stepped back. It roared a mighty roar to the heavens and charged the car, and rammed it so hard it slid the rest of the way to the edge and off the road.
The car slid flew into the air; it hit the other edge of the highway and fell for the earth below. Sam let out a loud scream as the car fell and hit the ground with a loud boom. Sam barely stayed conscious for enough time to hear the creature let out a victorious roar. Sam then blacked out.
