Chapter 1
Three strangers were all sitting in a basically empty train car. One was a girl, who looked about 18 and if she was standing, she would be about 5'3''. She was; black and white wearing striped legging, a red skirt, red t-shirt with a skull on it, and a blue jean jacket with no sleeves, all of these were either heavily worn or torn or both.
She had just finished tying up her ginger hair in two pony tails, when she looked over at a person who at one end of the car looking in at both occupants. They wore combat boots, black baggy pants, a skin tight white skin tight muscle shirt, and the top of a gi that didn't have a right side and was faded blue with gold trim. With their long white hair tied back in a loose ponytail.
He seemed to be watching the other passenger who was wearing orange pants and a mask.
When she looked back her green eye met their light blue ones, and then they seemed to motion for her to move on down.
She had heard about how dangerous the planet pandora was, and that you should trust no one. So she was hesitant to move over to him.
Suddenly the car jacked knifed and all three were thrown from their seats.
The next thing the girl knew, she felt something being lifted off her. She opened her eyes and saw the large man digging her out, and with the other slung over his shoulder.
"YOU DON'T DIE TO DAY, YOU DIE EVERY DAY!" he shouted.
This confused her as she pushed her way to her feet, and said. "Um.. thanks I guess."
The giant of a man walked off shouting, "PITTY LADDY!"
"Okay," she said as she followed him, limping.
She wondered how he knew where were he was going, but he seemed to be following a trail of dead bullymongs.
They had walked for about an hour when the person being carried started to wake up.
The large man seemed to notice this and put him down. His eyes opening to see a the girl and man standing over him.
"What happened?" They asked.
"I don't know," she answered. "Something happened to the train."
He stood up shakily and asked. "Who are you? And what happened after that?"
"The big guy dug us out, and then we walked," she explained. "And my names gaige."
"Lux, and you big guy?"
"I'm the conductor of the poop train."
"Right," he replied. "You are a strange psycho, you know for psycho standards. Anyway where are we going."
"I don't know," she replied. "We seem to be following the bodies." She then gestured at the bullymongs.
At that the large man started to walk again prompting the others to follow. Though they talked as they walked.
"So what bring you to pandora?" Gaig asked.
"Trouble back home," Lux said simply. "It got so bad that this actually became a safer option. You?"
"The same, more or less."
"Hey, um… this is a delegate question but…"
"A man," he cut her off, "Born, rased, and chosen. I know it can be had to tell."
"Right," she then looked forward and saw something. "Is that a town?"
The large man then charged a head. The other two then stumbled into town, a minute or two after him.
"Big guy, don't run a head like that, Gaige and I can't really keep up and we're both unarmed." Lux told him. "We need you to defend us."
Gaige looked over at him like she had something to say about this, but chose not to.
He seemed to ignore Lux and started calling, "PRETTY LADY."
"My word," they heard a man say as he stepped out of a building. "What is going on?"
"Hello I'm Lux and thus is Gaige," He answered. "And I'm a vault hunter."
"Me too," Gaige shouted as she looked around.
But the new man seemed to be looking rather hard a Lux. "My apologies, I am Sir Hammerlock, at your service. And you wouldn't happen to haven any…
"No."
"Right, well there were more vault hunters here a couple hours ago," Hammerlock told them. "But by know they would have left with clap trap for sanctuary, tacking the only ship with them."
"What about that, isn't that a fast travel station?" Lux pointed out.
"I'm afraid that hasn't worked in some time, and I'm still trying to fix it."
"Have you tried rerouting power?"
"Yes, and bypassing the automatic course correction."
"What about…"
"Fixed it!"
They both looked over to see Gaige getting up from lying under the fast travel station.
"A couple of loose wires, a couple of cut ones, a bullymong tooth and a human one, plus it looked like a robot of some kind tried French kissing it?" she sounded very confused at the last one.
"Damn that stupid little bot," Hammerlock said. "I am going to head to Sanctuary, I put a good word in for you, but you don't have the clarence. You'll probably have to do something to prove yourselves. In the building I was just in you'll find some guns feel free to help yourselves. Goodbye and good luck." and with that Hammerlock teleported away.
The three of them went in side and each took a gun. Gaige grabbed a tediore shotgun, the big guy grabbed a assault rifle, and lux took the Jakobs revolver.
"Hey gaige," Lux called.
"Yeah?"
"How'd you know how to fix the fast travel?"
Gaige seemed to get a glint in her eye, "I'm a genius, who was able to make a killing machine." At that gaige lifted her prosthetic arm and conjured a flying metal torso with claws. "This is Death Trap, or D.T. for short."
"Impressive, I heard that if you want to survive here you need something like that," Lux told her. "I proffer something a little more subtle. I would love to give to a demonstration but we should get going." With that he hit a button on the fast travel and disappeared in a flash of blue.
