Chapter 1: A Kick in the Head?
Seth's POV.
I had been sent to the Riverside territories alone, which was usual for a courier. I had gotten near the town of Greatsprings, and when i looked upon the small town from a cliff near one of the houses, a group of men attacked me. After surrounding me, the leader looked at me and pulled out his pistol.
"Hello, Seth. You don't know me, but I sure as Hell know you. I'm known as Mr. Burke, and this is my son Benji. Now, I know you're thinking that you can get out of this, but you can't. Nothing personal, its just I need that package, with no witnesses. Goodbye, Mr. Marek." The man, Mr. Burke, said to me as he shot me in the head. I felt the bullet hit my skull, and I fell off the cliff down to the ground. I had to have hit the side of the cliff or something, because I remember seeing the light from a house, a door open, and then I passed out.
I felt my body jolt and I started leaning up.
"Whoa, whoa there. You've been out for a few days now. My names Doc Martin. Why don't you tell me your name." The man who rushed over to my side said.
"My name...my name is Seth." I said as I leaned up slowly.
"Alright, nice to meet you Seth. You're in Greatsprings, now I had to go rooting around in your noggin to get that bullet out. You don't have any medical records on you, so I'll do this for free. You can have any chems and meds you want, just not all of them." The Doc replied.
"Thanks. Do you have any of my stuff?" I asked.
"Yes, here's your bag. I checked what you had in there, and I hope you don't mind." He said handing me my bag.
"Thanks, and I don't mind, as long as you didn't steal anything." I said as I checked my bag. I had; 3 stimpacks, a few psychos, anti venom, Med-X, my trusty M1911 .45 Auto, my bottle caps, some clothes, and ammo.
"Here's the stimpacks and such. I also have some of my old stuff if you want it. I don't use it anymore." The Doc said giving me stimpacks, psychos, buffout, med-x, etc. He opened up a bag of his and pulled out a Vault 117 suit and a Pip-Boy 3000.
"You can have these, along with what else is in this bag. I'll show you how to put on this Pip-Boy." The Doc told me as he put on the Pip-Boy 3000 and a glove under it. He showed me how to use it, and activated the inventory, health, and map tabs. I thanked him and walked out into the wasteland. I looked around and the sun blinded me at first. I saw the saloon, and decided I needed a drink. I arrived there and walked in. As I walked in, a beautiful Caucasian woman about as tall as me with dark brown hair walked over to me with a shotgun in her hand. A dog barked at me and the woman said, "Rex, down! Sorry about him, I'm Alice, and I was sent here on news about a courier shot near here. Have you seen him?"
