Chapter 4 Murder or Worse

Percious got more and more freaked as he walked from pod to pod to see its occupants dead, they were dressed all the same wearing Vault Suits at the end however was an empty pod. Percious breathed a sigh of relief maybe someone escaped whatever this was.

Percious then thought of Detective Nick Valentine, Nick was a synth made by a shadowy organisation known as The Institute, no one new where the location of this shadowy organisation was or if it even really existed.

There are horror stories about The Institute throughout the commonwealth , the most popular being that they snatch people in the middle of the night and then replace them with exact duplicates.

It had crossed Percious' mind that maybe The Institute was responsible for the disappearance of his parents , so if The Institute takes people and replaces them, why didn't they leave copies of his mum and dad?

Percious then continued to wonder why The Institute would even want his mum and dad, his mother a recent employee at Publick Occurrences, The Commonwealths number one newspaper, run by Piper a reporter hated by Mayor McDonough for his accusations about him being a synth, and his dad who could often be found wandering around the pre war landmarks of The Commonwealth such as Bunker Hill and Fort Independence.

Percious rather briskly made his way out of the room to the vault exit when he noticed something on the floor, to his delight he could not believe it, a Pip-Boy, and it was in fully working order. Percious attached it to his left wrist and used it to restart the elevator back to the surface. He was now going to make his way to Diamond City , back home, to tell what he had seen, to the only person he knew would believe him.
