Hey guys I'm really sorry about this but I'm currently putting my Blue Heaven's feel story on hold currently while I can research a bit more for it meanwhile here is the first of hopefully many fallout-franchise fanfics I hope to write.
It was a big day for James rushed a stretcher down the hallway of the Jefferson Memorial facility as he consoled and comforted his wife Catherine as doctors rushed to his side helping her into the makeshift emergency room they had prepared for wounded personnel. "Cmon Cmon Catherine your doing fine this will be the best day ever for us!" he said encouragingly patting her sweating face with a rag. She could only weakly smile at him as she groaned and cried out in pain as she went through labor. After several nail-biting hours she had successfully been able to give birth as James gazed at his new daughter who seemed to strangely have abnormally pale skin and carrying glittering red eyes he couldn't help but smile and fight back tears at how beautiful she looked. "It's a girl! We got a daughter Catherine! A healthy baby girl!" he cried excitedly showing her to his wife. She was already in tears as she gazed at the newborn child. "Shes so cute…I think we should name her Ruby..." she gasped through weak breaths. James looked down at the little girl gazing into those glistening red eyes and felt that the name fit her perfectly. He turned towards Doctor Madison Li who had assisted with the procedure and was standing beside him watching happy yet felt a tinge of jealousy for James's good fortune "Madison could you bring the life placement pad? I want to see what my daughter is-" and that's when he began to hear Catherine's breathing become eratic. "James…? James..!" she gasped panicking in fear as her heart beat uncontrollably. "Catherine…?! Shes in cardiac arrest!" He said putting Ruby down into the crib and turned towards Madison and the other doctors. "Grab the compression and get the baby out of here! MOVE! MOVE!" And that was the last Ruby Hanson ever saw of her mother.

5-year old Ruby Hanson snuck through the halls of Vault 101 always sticking to the dark unlit areas trying to force back a giggle as she could hear her best and closest friend Amata Almodovar walked through the halls looking for her. "Cmoooonnn this is unfair Ruby! You know I'm not gonna be able to find you like this!" she cried out trying not to giggle from Ruby's almost supernatural ability to sneak through the shadows. And this is the same girl I'd always read manga and watch anime with. She thought with delight remembering all the times when they would always go to their secret clubhouse in the vault reactor area and watch anime and read their favorite manga even though she could be such a nerd sometimes especially with what her friend knew about history. Her and Ruby had been close from the day they could first walk, she always stuck close to Amata always refusing to leave any room that she was in unless she was behind her. She walked into the small park-like atrium area as she heard what sounded like a giggle right behind her. "Kyaaahh!" Ruby cried out as she tackled her friend into the grass giggling and cracking off a crazy childish grin. "Okay Wrath you got me!" Amata said amidst her giddy giggling. Ruby rolled off of her covering her mouth as if in shock "oh please I couldn't be Wrath from the first Full Metal Alchemist anime I'm not that cute!" That day of hide-and-seek was a day that would stick with the both of them for the rest of their lives.
5 years later
Little 10-year Ruby rolled out of bed out of exhaustion clad in her little vault tank top and shorts although she began feeling embaressed by it due to the last examination she had with dad said that her breasts were starting to develop. Uggghhh! This is so embaressing! I'm barely 10 years old and my shirts are already pressing on my chest! Even that stupid vault suit is starting to become uncomfortable! She thought hugging herself in complete embaressment, that was when she realized that all seemed silent around her with no sounds of footsteps. "Dad? Are you awake?" She walked out of her room barefoot as she peeked around their quarters seeing a letter on the dining table. She walked over and picked up seeing that it was from Dad and read it.
Meet me in the Vault Diner okay? Sorry I didn't wake you. –Dad
She put the letter down thinking over what Dad would want to meet with her about. "I wonder if hes treating me to some chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream?" She mumbled but then shook her head believing that the meaning of the letter felt like more than that. She quickly dressed and brushed her teeth as she walked out going towards the Diner slightly unnerved that the entire vault felt more silent than usual amidst Alphonse's usual bickering among some of the residents. He maybe the Overseer and Amata's dad but jeez hes always such a big bully to everybody, me and dad especially. She thought as she stepped into the Diner filled with darkness and was suddenly blinded by a heavenly white light and heard chants of "Happy Birthday!" She rubbed her eyes as she could hear Officer Gomez telling Stanley how he had turned on the lights too fast. When her sight had returned she could see her dad and Amata smirking sheepishly at her as she realized that they were the masterminds behind the surprise party. Dad smiled at her as he said. "Happy Birthday honey your 10 years old now..! If only your mother could see you right now she'd be-" Unfortunately that heart-warming moment was cut short as Alphonse butted in front of her saying "Happy Birthday now that your 10 years old you will be given new responsiblities and in honor of this you will be given your very own Pip-Boy 3000." He said with an authoratative tone as he smirked mumbling. "Get used to it…" and turned walking back to his table. Ruby could do nothing but impale him with her red eyes full of hatred as she remembered how Shion tortured her grandma whom she had hated in the Higurashi anime and smiled to herself promising for herself and for Amata's sake that she'd make sure he would survive her own torture of him.
She put on the Pip boy glove and cuffed the wrist-mounted computer onto her wrist as she hugged Dad and ran over to Amata beaming with delight. "Happy Birthday! We really surprised you didn't we?" Amata said smiling at Ruby's happiness and clutched the latest arc of the Higurashi manga behind her back. "Thanks Amata I'm glad you guys did this for me." She said smiling and still beaming happy her red eyes seeming to sparkle like jewels. "Your welcome, your dad did most of the work, I just handed out the invitations and stuff, he was worried you were onto us, but I told him not to worry, your so easy to fool." She giggled genuinely knowing how clever it was that Amata was able to hide this from her. "I bet you cant guess what your present is! Go on! Guess!" Ruby shuffled twiddling her fingers shyly as she mumbled "Ummm I don't know" She giggled happily "ha! Whats your favorite psycho manga? That's right Higurashi! 3rd arc! And with nooo missing pages!" Ruby gasped in shock and almost tackled her to the ground almost screaming happily. "Thank you so much Amata! I'll keep this with me forever!"
All that seemed like centuries ago as Ruby first stepped out of the of the grinding vault door trying to force back the tears that were forming in her eyes passing the various blackened skeletons that were casualties of the war and the bombs that scorched the earth so long ago. As she stepped through the door, 19-year old Ruby Hanson covered her eyes from the bright sunlight and walked out onto the balcony-like overlook and first laid eyes on the Capitol Wasteland. She dropped her pistol and fell to her knees "Oh my god…" was all she could say as she wondered how she was going to survive on the outside and how she was gonna find her dad.
