I've heard rumors of Pandora, the dangers….and the glitz and the glory that others have found by searching for the vault and becoming Vault hunters…sounds pretty shitty if you ask me, I'm here for the fucking danger. The train ride here is excruciating, I had to listen to different people from different planets…whining and complaining. A few of them actually had something meaningful to say; I just sat there with Adam and Mia in my hands, my two lucky Revolvers that my dad had passed down to me before the Hyperion Corporation destroyed my village…and then later my planet. All of us were here for a specific reason, to find the Vault, what for was different for each Man, Woman, and apparently child…for glory? Fame? Power? For me…It was revenge, I want to shove it in Hyperion's face that I am alive…and for them to wish they killed me 8 years ago.

"Hey! Everyone! Quit slacking…were almost to Overlook, from there each of you will manually Fast Travel to Sanctuary…from there on you will look for the Crimson raiders and you will be given instructions from what to do from then on…Am I clear?" The man that was talking to us must have been the Train conductor…he was fat and overly repulsive and spoke with a very thick and distinct accent.

"And what if I don't, Fat-ass!?" One of the Vault hunters yelled at him, the Man just simply smiled, took out a revolver and shot him in the leg.

"Nobody help him…if he's such a bad-ass, let him help himself…My name is Marcus Kincaid, you will respect me…" He said as he went back to the front of the train, I only chuckled at the Vault hunter's pain…after a long while we arrived in the small town of Overlook, the town was nice, as were the locals, cheering us as we walked through the town, each one of us manually used a small machine to teleport us to the floating city of Sanctuary.

We arrived at Sanctuary, getting in a small crowd, and there stood 7 of the 8 original Vault hunters at the top balcony of the Crimson Raiders base. Lilith, Brick, Mordecai, Salvador, Axton, Maya, and Zer0. Lilith addressed the crowd.

"You! Vault hunters! Welcome to Sanctuary! Today, there are 200 of you…by the time this is all over…there will be 28 of you…I know, scary right?" Brick chuckled as he added his own comment.

"That'll suck huh!? Leaving your home to come to Pandora, for NOTHING!? HA HA HA!" Brick laughed hysterically next to Lilith until Mordecai tapped his arm and he stopped, then Axton stood to the Podium

"After we defeated Handsome Jack, we discovered the potential of MULTIPLE Vaults…on other planets and in other galaxies…" Maya stood up next to Axton

"Indeed…only the best of you will become true Vault Hunters…now I bet a lot of you are wondering exactly how do we find out who are the best…actually we have a hidden Surprise for you" Maya said as Salvador grabbed a step stool and stood up so we could see him.

"THE FIRST ANNUAL MOTHERFUCKING BAD-ASS VAULT HUNTER TOURNAMENT! Here you will be tested on your skills against other Vault Hunters….the top 28 contestants will stay, while the other 172 of you will return home" Salvador said, hopping off the step stool.

"If Roland was here…I'm sure he would want us to let you know that this is not an easy quest….this will be challenging experience for you…and maybe even a few of you will not survive…there will be deaths…whether they will be your own or the motherfuckers who are running at you will be YOUR choice! Do not disappoint us…are there any questions? No…? Well then…" Lilith said as she backed away from the Podium.

"WELCOME TO MOTHERFUCKING PANDORA!" Salvador Yelled.
