Hello faithful Readers!
This is a playthrough fic of Point Lookout. Personally one of my favorite DLC's
Be sure to Review!
A small booted foot impacted the cracked pavement.
A much larger booted green foot followed closely behind.
Verea thought it was just a routine walk to the Anchorage Memorial in order to get some mirelurk meat for Jenny. Easy as Mississippi Quantum Pie right? Easy caps. She only needed her shotgun. She didn't need Fawkes, right? Well as her luck would have it. A large group of Super Mutants had taken refuge nearby, which of course was the cause of her current predicament.
BZZZOW! Went a laser bolt, deflecting of her Talon armor.
"Thank god I brought that along"She let off another shotgun shell behind her, but the Super Mutant Overlord continued unhindered and fired its Tri-Beam laser rifle once again.
"HAHAHA! YOU'RE MINE PRETTY GIRL!"
"YOU MAKE GOOD FOOD!" screamed a smaller Brute tailing the Overlord.
This was Verea's problem: Four super mutants and an Overlord. All of them armed with powerful weapons. They were chasing her and she was running out of ammo.
"DAMNIT" she screeched as missile streaked by, narrowly missing her. It exploded nearby and pelted her side with shrapnel. Her thighs were one fire, due to her running almost contunously for an hour and a half.
She let off two more shells. Two left. The mutants were shouting with glee. They had captured a great prize. Verea let off one more shell. One more mutant went down.
"Perfect shot"Her happiness was cut short as she reached the end of the road, literally. The broken bridge had ended, leaving one the grey waters of the Potomac.
"TIME TO DIE" the overlord screamed.
Everything seemed to slow down.
The Super Mutants thunderous footsteps growing closer.
There was a derelict vehicle sitting on the road. Reactor still intact.
The overlord would be upon it.
She was always told that before she died her life would flash before her eyes. They were wrong. All she experienced was an acute sensory awareness. She was very aware of how her heart beat. The wind and water around her. The coolness of the wood and metal of the shotgun. The recoil from the shot. The smell of the burning car and then she was flying. She could vaguely recall the car explosion and the mutants crying in agony as their flesh burned. But mostly she remembered flying. She could she see the top of buildings and for a moment she felt as though she could spread her arms and fly to the top of the world.
But then she was falling…falling…falling. The waters of the Potomac were cool and then Verea fell into darkness.
Cliffhanger!
Review Please. Constructive Criticism appreciated.
