"Yo shawty. I need ya help." Tiny Tina's voice called over Brick's ECHO communicator.
"Sure thing, what'cha need?" The Berserker slightly chuckled back.
"Wellll y'see. Madam Laquan-shaquisha's birthday is comin' up, and I tolds her that we'd have a sickass party for her. Well that dame tolds me that she wouldn't be goin' nowhere if those bandits are around. Now, normally I'd take care of it myself, I gots friends ta help with that, but seems like its some bandit family reunion and theres TONS out there. Can ya grab a few of ya homies and come by here ta help?"
Brick laughed louder, excited for the impending chaos, "Sure thing Tina."
"Shawty. You da best." The transmission ended.
Salvador sat in the back of Moxxi's, arm wrestling a citizen who challenged his position as "The Supreme Arm Wrestling Macho King".
The Gunzerker smirked as he forced his fist down against his opponents, twisting his arm back in an unatural angle.
"MERCY! MERCY! DAMN IT STOP!" The citizen cried as he heard his bones snap, but Salvador just kept twisting, now laughing widly.
"FINE FINE I GIVE UP! YOU WIN!" Salvador let go, his oppnent ran out crying and holding his broken appendage.
"Damn." Brick chuckled, you showed him.
The dwarf smirked and cracked his knuckles and leanded back in his booth, satsified.
"Served him right."
"Anyways. Tiny Tina needs help. We're gonna blow shit up."
"Count me in. I have a launcher that needs breakin' in."
The two Beserker-class men strolled towards the station after stocking up on explosives, noticing a certain Psycho rummaging through some boxes around the building. Salvador's eyes lit up, knowing how much his crazed team mate had a thirst for carnage. He nudged the wall of muscle and scurried up to the other vault hunter then lightly punched his arm.
"Hey amigo!" The dwarf greeted as Krieg spun around.
"He's on our side remember? Innocent. Don't do anything." The conscious side grunted in both agreement to his inner voice and in greeting to the Gunzerker.
"We were just on our way to blow some shit up, wanna come?"
Krieg looked down at the shorter man then up and raised his Buzz Axe in the air screaming, "I'M READY FOR THE FEAST! MAKE IT RAIN BLOOD!"
Salvador threw up a fist as well and laughed, "HELL YEAH AMIGO! VAMANOS!" Motioning everyone to follow his lead before Fast Traveling to Tina's.
"Alright everyone." The thirteen-year-old demolitionist said lowly, pacing back and forth like a sergeant to his troops, "We have a mission of the utmost importance! Madam Laquan-shaquisha's birthday is coming up, and it seems like there's some sort of bandit reunion goin' on and we cannot have those lame-o's ruining it! So we're gonna teach them a lesson!" Tina ran over to a large chest and opened it, revealing what looked like an unlimited supply of grenades.
The three vault hunters stirred, excited for the events to take place.
At about the same time the three explosion-happy vault hunters left, Maya, Axton, and Zero were summoned by Sir Hammerlock.
"Good day vault hunters!" The gentleman saluted, "How would you like to make a terrific contribution to uncovering the mysteries of Pandora?"
The three in question looked at Hammerlock in suspense, eager to hear the proposal.
"Out in Tundra Express, an unusually large flock of Rakks have been spotted nesting in the area, I would like you to go out and take some samples of the area. I would do it myself, but my editor insists I revise some of my entries or it won't go into print." He grumbled and trailed off, the vault hunters had already lost interest at the words "flock of Rakks" and were now just standing idly waiting for the Brit to finish speaking.
Noticing the disinterest in his errand runners, Hammerlock decided to make it worth while.
"If you fulfill my request, I'll provide each one of you with a new gun and shield."
That got the three back on board.
"New gun and shield? Hell, count me in!" Axton proclaimed, Zero and Maya nodded in agreement before heading out to Tundra Express.
"Awww man. Aw man aw man!" Tina bounced in excitement, climbing up onto Brick's shoulders, slinging a bag of grenades over her shoulder. The others followed sooth, packing up as many explosives as they could carry.
"Allllright! Super swagalicious bomb squaaaaad~ MOVE OUT!" The pre-teen ordered, throwing her weight forward.
"MAKE IT RAIN BLOOD!" Krieg cackled, sprinting out first, grenades in hand with the others in tow.
Upon exiting the cave, it was obvious by what Tina meant by a "bandit family reunion". There were swarms of them, from Nomads, to Midgets, to Marauders, and even Rats. All of them parading around and getting into their own "social skirmishes" to show who was the best of the best.
Salvador laughed maniacally as he loaded up his launcher, firing rockets into the masses, watching the bodies soar up into the air in an explosion of gore. He then proceeded to hurl grenade after grenade at the remaining bandits, thoroughly enjoying his work. Brick tightened his nail-studded gloves and punched his way through the sea of psychos as Tiny Tina hurled her favorite high-powered-remote-detonated bombs into the doorways of the new fortress.
"Man does this bring back memories." Brick said as he punched the head clean off a Nomad.
"Less talky! More blowy-uppy!" Tina ordered, tossing a grenade.
"Time to let loose" The subconscious Krieg said with an invisible smile.
"HERE COMES THE STORM CLOUD!" The outter Psycho declared, "BOOM GOES THE THUNDER!" He threw a grenade, "DOWN COMES THE RAIIIIN!" His Buzz Axe sliced clean through the stomachs of three Rats, spraying organs and blood everywhere.
"UGH. I regret taking on this job." Axton groaned, resorting to tinkering with his Turret box to try and pass the time faster. The three sat a few hundred feet away from a field full of Rakks that were pacing around the area. They had been in the same spot for the past two hours, watching the feathered beasts waddle around and caw.
"I have returned back/ the samples are all with me/ we can return now." Zero said in his usual haiku-like speech.
"Great. The sooner we get back the b-"
KA-BOOOOOOOoooom
A large mushroom cloud followed by a mini earth tremor startled everyone and sent the Rakks off in a frenzy. Axton pulled out a pistol and shot down a Rakk for shits and giggles. Maya shot him a death glare which the Commando just shrugged off.
"It was only one, doesn't matter."
"We should check it out/ with extra information/get a better prize." The Assassin commented.
"For once something exciting!" Axton grinned, dashing off toward the source of the explosion.
"Do you think we should stop-"
"Nah amigo." Salvador interrupted Brick, "He's too loco to stop. Give him un memento."
"DAYYYYUM, THAT SHAWTY GOT MAD SKIIIIILLLLLL" Tina smiled, hopping off the Berserker's shoulders.
A group of Buzzard helicopters flew in overhead, the sound of more bandits approaching sent the others into another raid.
"TURRET OUT!" With a flash of blue light, a large turret gun digi-structed and began shooting down the Buzzards.
"STAY PUT!" A Phase Lock orb captured one of the aircraft's.
"Your eyes deceive you/ I am hidden from sight/ now you will fall dead." A holo-Zero feigned attack while the real one stealthed to skewer two Marauders.
"HAHA WHAT UP MY BEEEETCHES?!" The thirteen-year-old laughed, throwing more grenades at the new wave of bandits.
While the chaos around him was anything but silent, inside him was, Krieg was now fully taken over by his psychotic side, no longer able to comprehend his surroundings. Everything that moved was an enemy. The Psycho sliced his way through, drenched in crimson. The slight ringing in his ears was the screaming of his victims. Suddenly the wave of bandits around him seemed to drown him, overwhelming him as he felt hands and arms restraining him.
"KRIEG! KRIEG STOP!" Maya pleaded.
"AMIGO NO! ITS OVER!" Salvador tightened his grip on the Psycho.
All the vault hunters did everything they could to subdue the crazed man. The battle had ended minutes before, but Krieg was still on a rampage and ended up punching Axton square in the face when the Commando tried to stop his frenzy, knocking him out cold. They Psycho broke free and turned on the other Vault hunters. Brick swung his fist at the hand Krieg was wielding his Buzz Axe, knocking it from his grasp, but Krieg retaliated by kicking the Berserker in the abdomen, knocking the wind out of him. Salvador drew two pistols and attempted to at least get his companion to move back by firing at his feet, but that didn't stop him as he picked up the dwarf and hurled him at a near by rock wall.
Tina had run off to contact Roland, hastily informing him on the situation.
"We're coming now." The leader of the Raider's replied, a very slight tone of panic in his voice.
Zero set up a decoy hologram for the Psycho to chase as he hopped up onto the hulking man's back, trying to subdue him through suffocation. But to no avail as Krieg charged backwards into the rock wall, knocking off the Assassin.
"I don't wanna have to...but..." Maya brought up her hand and suspended her friend in the air, hoping to prevent any further damage.
"HAHAHA SPILL THE BLOOD. SALT THE WOUNDS! NO MORE NO MORE!"
The Siren felt her abilities beginning to drain her energy, she couldn't keep it up much longer.
"MAYA! ROLAND'S ON HIS WAY!" Tina yelled, "JUST HOLD ON!"
Maya fell to her knees, her fingers began to twitch as the light from her tattoos faded, the Phase orb faltering, before passing out from exhaustion.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!" The inner voice screamed, "WE PROMISED TO NEVER HARM THE INNOCENT, IT'S ENDING. NOW."
"NO! NEVER! MY BLOOD WILL NOT SPILL!"
"TOO. BAD. WE FUCKED UP. THERE'S NO HOPE NOW." The subconscious Krieg forcefully took hold of his outer counterpart's motor skills, shakily walking up to the discarded Buzz Axe, spinning the blade to a full rev then held it out in front of his neck.
"We had fun. Thank you."
"OH HELL NO!" Lilith's voice cried.
A blast of purple energy sent the Psycho flying backwards with insane speed. The whole world went black before Krieg's eyes.
