AN: I'm sorry about any spelling errors and such, my computer doesn't have word, so I'm using google docs and it's not perfect… If you'd like to be a beta reader, you can ask in a review..

Big day in 101

A bright flash of light blinds the boy, as he opens the door into the mess hall. "SURPRISE!" "AGH!" Max screams and thrusts his hand out to smack away the person closest to him. "James! You turned the light on too fast, you blinded the poor boy." Max, hearing his father's name, stops what he's doing and tries to blink his sight back. Once he can see his dad leans down a bit and smiles at his son. "Happy Birthday champ, how does it feel to be ten?" Max smiles at his father and replies with a happy "I feel the same as yesterday dad, as i said this morning!" He looks over at the older looking man on his dad's right, "Hello there Overseer."

"Why hello there young man, here is your new Vault Tech Pipboy 2000! Now that you're ten you can start your vault responsibilities tomorrow! Hahahaha" The man laughs and sits down letting Max mingle with his partygoers. As Max starts to look for his best friend, he was tackled from behind "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAXIMUS!" the girl yelled from on his back. Max rolled over and sees a short, brown haired, and slightly chubby girl staring down at him. "Hey Amata! You cumfy up there?" Max said laughing. "Yup! Sure am!" Amata Almodovar says with a smile and hops off of the boy to let him up. "Were you surprised?!" "Sure was Amata, I didn't expect this at all" She smiles at the pipboy in Max's hands. "You need help putting that thing on?" Max nods to the 9 year old with a blush, "Can you help me?" She grabs his arm and rolls his sleeve up to slide on his glove for the pipboy. "This is an older model, so it'll hurt a bit when i put it on, and it won't come off… but it'll connect to your nervous system and so itll be able to tell you if your hurt and help you see better!" she said with a smile as she basically slams the pipboy down on his wrist, causing the metal spikes to stab into his skin and nerves, linking to his nervous system and causing a great shudder to run down his entire body. "AMATA this feels weird!" He says, voice shaking as his body links completely with his body. His eyes flashed green as it matched is nervous systems. "There! All better!" Amata said happily with a smile. The day went by in a happy blur, minus the boys fight with Butch. Little did he know what would end his happy, safe life.
