Mojave wasteland
A radscorpion crawls out of the ground with the lifeless sand falling off its hard shell body. It suddenly hisses and prepares to strike before a black-armoured boot crashes down on its skull crushing it and killing it instantly. There was a cracking noise as the boot twisted and ground the lifeless creature into the sand of the deadlands and as the view points slowly rises, it reveals the Courier standing there - fully armoured and helmeted in his elite riot gear with his helmet tilted down, looking at the corpse of the enlarged bug.
"Damn bugs are everywhere these days since I killed the hive." he says out loud before looking up and continuing through the deadlands."Are we any closer to unusual sightings?" He questions, seemingly, no one before, with a flicker of blue, a small girl appears in front of him and begins walking backwards facing him.
"Yes, it's just over that hill."she says before pausing. "I can't make sense of it though, we've been there multiple times and saw nothing." she replies looking down at the ground in confusion.
"I don't know Mila, possibly the Brotherhood are experimenting again ... or the Enclave" he says in a dark tone, causing Mila to look up searchingly.
"It won't be them since I know you annihilated the last of them at Adams." She tries to reassure him.
"I'm not so sure, since I found the Remnants and the fact these guys are dedicated to their 'cause'." he says in disgust, before he arrives at the top of the mountain to see a massive stone structure sitting in the wastelands
"Wow!" she says in a surprised voice, "How had we missed that?" she questions.
"We haven't," he replies, as he approaches the structure before getting his geiger counter, with its, almost silent crackle. "it's barely irradiated." he observes.
"So it hasn't been here long." she finishes his thought before scanning the structure. "Limestone... though it's old ... very old, like it's been here for centuries but there's no documented evidence for that." She speaks in a confused voice before the Courier places his hand on mysterious rock, rubbing off some of the moss onto his glove.
"Fresh life!" he says, "give me the transponder I need to see the brains." The device suddenly appears in his hand and, with a press of the trigger, he's gone. After a few seconds have elapsed, a small troop of advance soldiers marches out of the structure (looking like the legion but more stylish) before a leader begins talking in a foreign language.
Big MT sink
The Courier appears in a flash of blue as he storms through the room, stepping over a little robot before walking though a door and up a ramp to see Dr Kline floating in front of him but, before he can speak, the Courier cuts him off
"Found the problem - a massive stone structure which looked like it's been there for years but is barely irradiated. I am getting my stuff since am not coming back for a while. I need to see if I can figure this out. Anyways, am off now so bye." Before Kline can get a word in, he's off and back in the sink, accessing the storage system and retrieving his equipment. "Ok now Alice." and, with a flash, he's gone.
Abandoned Brotherhood bunker
Inside the abandoned bunker, a flash of blue lights up the dark crypt-like room and there stands the Courier, scanning the environment for any abnormalities but finding none.
"Hmmm." he hums, as he walks down the stairs cautiously before stopping as he reaches the bottom. Scanning the hallway, he once again notices something move around the corner but doesn't get to see all of it before it's out of sight, causing him furrow his eyebrows under his helmet before taking it off and casually walking down the corridor to an old radio. He never batted an eyelid towards the location of the mysterious corner turner before activating the radio. Meanwhile, the creature rises out of its hiding place and creeps up on, what's it thinks, is its unsuspecting prey and goes for a grab when...
"I saw you go round the corner Alice, you need to work on your speed and timing." he says as he reaches into his pocket for a cigarette and gets Benny's lighter out. He lights it before turning around to see the deathclaw looking at him with an annoyed look on her face. Before the Courier can say anything, she grabs him in a hug and nearly crushes him to death in her powerful grip
"Hello Master, welcome home." the, now named, Alice, says in a feminine voice.
"Thanks... can't breathe." he strains to get out before quickly getting released.
"Sorry Master, I was just excited, that was all" she says in an embarassed tone, looking down.
"It's fine. So anyway, are you ready to head out?" he questions as he clicks his spine back into position, causing her to stand up straight with a smile on her reptilian face.
"Aye sir, awaiting command." she says, as she fakes a salute before the Courier begins walking back towards the stairs and, dropping his cigarette at his feet and stepping on, he snuffs it out before replacing his helmet and getting his transponder out.
"You know the drill." he says, as Alice grabs his shoulder lightly.
"This always makes me feel tingly." Alice notes, as she vanishes along with her master.
The hill next to the stone structure
A flash of blue and the Courier and his deathclaw appear on top of a hill he had previously walked over, causing him confusion.
"What the..? I wanted to get next to the structure, not on top of the dam hill. Stupid thin..." But he stops as he notices fires around the structure, causing him to immediately duck down, getting Alice to do the same.
"Hostiles." he states, causing Mila to sigh as she appears in front of them, also crouching.
"How do you know they're Hostiles? All we can see is their general location." She questions with a look that suggests that this isn't their first time discussing this.
"This is the Wasteland, everyone is a hostile." he responds, as the atomiser appears in his hand." How many?" he questions Mila, causing her to close her eyes and for the Courier's to glow slightly.
"I see.. 72 of them... armed with melee weapons?" She questions, in a confused voice, only for the Courier to ignore her.
"Alice!" he orders, looking at a... super-mutant behemoth?
"I smell... 66 humans and 6... they smell like super-mutants but are different" she states, sniffing at the air.
"Different how?" he queries, looking at one of the abnormal mutants
"I can't explain it ... it's just different" she replies, looking at him but, before he can respond, he sees one of them creeping up behind Alice with a dagger.
"LOOK OUT" he suddenly yells as the man begins to bring his blade down only for a five clawed hand to slice him to pieces however not before the man can scream out in fear alerting some of the others down the hill causing a few to yell in a unknown language alerting the rest of them
"Well looks like where in for a fight" The Courier says in a aggressive tone before getting his rifle and aiming at the massive behemoths before firing BANG
Meanwhile inside the camp 5 minutes earlier
A solider walked into a tent to see his commanding officer leaning over a table with a piece of paper on it
"Sir the scouts are back" he says as he enters the tent
"Good... what did they find" he questions his attention focusing on the messenger
"Nothing sir there's noting but desert for miles around ... and two of the scouts haven't returned sir but there was a loud noise from their respective directions sir" he stares hopeing he hasn't upset his commander
"... I want a search party sent out right aw-" BANG but he is but off by a massive sound like a drum" what in the name of the emperor was tha-" but he was once again cut off by the sound Causing him to charge out the tent -BANG- to see a ogre fall to the ground missing most of its head and a soldier charges past him be he manages to stop him before he gets to far away
"What's going -"BANG" -on" he says as another ogre falls
" we heard a scream from one of the guards and before we know it the sky seems to bo-"BANG" boom and other ogre began falling there only two left sir our forces are charging the location of the scream now but our enemie has the high ground but they underestimate the power of the empire sir" (hehe) he states causing the commander to look at the hill in fear
Back with the Courier
"4 down 2 to go" he states as he pops another shell out of the chamber
"Better hurry there getting close" says Alice getting ready for combat BANG
"One left annnd..."he pauses BANG" all behemoths down he says getting to his feet as he rifle disappears with the all American appearing in its place with him immediately emptying the clip down the hill causing immense casualties to the charging force making Some faulter as it would seem god himself is smiteing them
"CQC time" yells out Alice in a joyful voice as the Courier draws his blade
"Ladies first" he says as he levels his blade at the opposing force causing her to grin and charge roaring at the line which raise there shields pitifully as the claws tear through the steel like a sheeshiksbob(?) through butter. soon the courier leaping at the hostiles sliding the blade through a thin gap in the sheild wall simpaling the fool behind it before ripping another out of ones hands, before having to deflect a blow from a blade then punishing the fool with a thrust of his own killing him instantly
Back with the commander
"My god" he slowley says as he hears thunder and his men fall with each boom "what horror have we stumbled across" he shockingly states as his men start run for there life's for the gate but before they can the massive beast gets in the way stoping them and seems to laugh as 3 are cut in twine when theb black armoured being slowly walks towards them its eyes glowing red with rage and anger "I...I have to stop this" and he begins to yell "ALL TROOPS OF THE EMPEROR CEASE FIGHTING AT ONCE" he commands as all troops despite the fear they feel cease fighting but are still weary but after doing this he catches the armoured beings attention
The Courier
'Hmm they've stopped fighting'
"Alice cease attacking for Now" he orders as he looks at what he assumes is the leader which he begins walking towards to leader who says something in a unintelligible language 'what are they saying' he questions himself
'Latin' answers Mila 'or very similar to it anyway'
"Can you translate then?" He questions
"By god what horrifying monsters are you?" He says in a ghostly voice
"A very scary one" replies the Courier in a demonic voice
"Yo- you can speak?" He questions in a frightful voice
" I can... who are you and why are you here" the Courier demands
"I...I...I-" but he's cut off
"Spit it out before I kill you all" threatens the Courier as he points his sword at the commanders through drawing a bit of blood causing him to swallow
"I am commander ralof ines-sfear of the emperors 7th scouting Legion" he manages to get out "and we are here to see if your world can be plundered for riches" he shakily gets out cusing the Courier to laugh
"HAHAHA AHH... you picked the wrong place to plunder friend this is the wasteland there's noting around her for miles apart from sand and pre-war building" he informs him
"War?" He questions
"I AM THE ONE ASKING THE QUESTIONS HERE" the Courier reminds him however he is ignored
"What are you going to Do with us" he fearfully questions
"Kill all but one of you to send a msg of how dangerous this place is.. so your empire Doesn't suffer like we did" he says looking away
"No...no I won't let you do that" he says sand draws his blade but the Courier either doesn't notice or care and the commander stabs him in the chest knocking him out if his day dream causing him to look at the blade then at the commander before smashing the blade with his hand causing the commander to stagger back
"Wrong move" he says In a low voice before grabbing him by the arm and snapping it back causing the commander to scream in pain as he Begins to beat him to death and by the time he's done all that's left of his head is a pile of mush and he looks back at the group of now leaderless men before looking at Alice who nods grabbing one and picking him up and before the others can react all the rest are killed with precise shots
"MMMMMMMM" muffles the mans in Alice's grip
"Let him go" he orders with her following "you will tell your leaders what happened here tell them the Courier has made his move... now run..." he commands as the man runs off with fear in his eyes with Mila appearing in front of him
"Was that a good idea...?" She questions as he follows the man into the gate
"Yup they will need a name for me since am going to be going there... since there's nothing here for me" he says as he stops at the entrance of the gate
"I will follow you anywhere master" Alice loyally states
"How would you live with out me" asked
"Like I did before we meet" he states as he walks through
