I watched my two kids grow up, my son was into western stuff and I found this picture of this western guy named Jack Marston, and my son said he wanted everything he had in the picture for his 10th birthday. I said alright and got everything I saw, the hardest part to find was the sports coat. Now my Daughter will always be my little girl but she is stubborn like her mother but is smart and quick witted like me. I would always look out for her and my son. But I trained my son to be like a protector of her. Jimmy was very mature for being only 18 years old, now Taylor and him got along as kids but right now they don't see eye to eye, she's been going outside of Megaton and talking to bandits and raiders also traders, I told her to stay away from them but her curiosity got the best of her. One day while I was fixing the water pipes my son said that he wanted a Winchester Repeater, I said to him they don't make those but I can get you something close to it. So I went to the Museum Of History and got the Lincolns repeater along with a picture of the Lincoln memorial and a wanted poster of John Wilkes Booth. Your never gonna believe this if I told you but one day my son came home with a Yao Gui and built a hitch post outside my house. He then also made a saddle for it. And would ride around megaton on it like it's a horse. My daughter on the other hand liked to play tea cups or whatever you call it, she would always want me to play with her so I did, she'd give me a little pink and white apron to put on along with a bonnet, when Sarah would walk by she would laugh at what Taylor made me do but she's also happy that I was spending time with her. Sarah loves both of her kids but she I think she loves Taylor a little more. Taylor was more the social loudmouth type while Jimmy was quiet and shy, he would always stand behind me if someone came to the door. Fawkes was always like a brother to me so when he came over I would tell the kids that this is there Uncle Fawkes. Fawkes would let them climb up his arm and he would throw them up in the air and play with them. Fawkes made a deal with Lucas Simms that if he would protect Megaton at night he would get him a house in Megaton, Fawkes agreed and is my neighbor. Billy is another one of my good friends, we didn't start hanging out until I had Jimmy. We'd then talk about parenthood and how our kids are doing. Taylor made friends with this girl named Haylee and at 13 they were best friends, nothing could rip them apart. When they would see Jimmy, Taylor and Haylee would make jokes about his western style and Jimmy would just take it and not say anything back. One day my son came running to me crying about how his Yao Gui died. I looked at him and said well back in the west not everybody had a horse and walked, but walking is a good thing it gets your legs stronger and the more you walk the more stronger you legs can carry you and the longer you can run. I kept training him till he was 16 and by then he was already well built and polite. On his sixteenth birthday I gave him a .44 magnum and a holster to go along his Lincolns repeater. I showed him how to take care of the gun and what type of ammo it takes and how to repair it. Taylor might have been a basically a smartass but she never asked for a whole lot. When Taylor would go outside of Megaton, Jimmy would get in the snipers nest and look at who she's talking to and if he thinks it's bad then he'll go and get Taylor away from them. Sometimes me and Sarah would leave the house and I would have Fawkes watch them, he didn't mind in fact I think he like watching them. When we would return he would be sitting on the couch with them sleeping in his arms. I would laugh and put them to bed in their rooms. But now that Jimmy is 18 and Taylor is 16 I think it's time they start their own adventure together. I know Jimmy was excited about going out into the wasteland, it wasn't as dangerous as it was when I ventured it the only thing left really were the bugs, raiders and a few super mutants who can't repopulate. I took Taylor with me to a Gun Trader and told her to pick any gun she wanted and she chose the Combat Shotgun. I then taught her how to use it, take care of it, what ammo it used and so on. Taylor wanted her friend Haylee to come with her, and I don't think Jimmy will mind if she's comes as long as they don't make fun of him. When Jimmy was sleeping I put a few Molotov's in his satchel along with stimpak's, food and other supplies, also a lighter with a Carton of cigarettes. I then did the same for Taylors book bag except without Molotov's. On the night before they left after me and Sarah talked about what to do and what not to do we gave them a wasteland survival guide and sent them to bed, Taylor had Haylee sleeping over since she was going with them. I sat with Sarah at the table. She looks at me and I say we're doing the right thing sending them out there. I know I just don't want them to face the same dangers as us, Sarah there's not much out there most of the wasteland if not all of it by now is green and the purified water has spread across the whole wasteland, They'll be fine. Yea your probably right, I don't know Jacob I'm just scared don't be, their our kids if we can do it so can they. I know, well I'm going to bed come up when you're ready, I nod. I sit at the table wondering if we're making the right choice sending our kids out there, I know I am in the long run. This how sure is gonna be quiet when they leave, and with that I turn out the kitchen light and head to my bedroom and go to sleep.
