Chapter Six
It was early one morning when Vulcan got up going to the kitchen and waking up everyone else up. "Really dude." said a daze Drezir.
"Don't really dude me, I had to sleep on the floor. Besides you talk in your sleep about really weird stuff."
"Is that coffee black?" asked Dorris.
"Ya, want some."
"Yes, please." She then got up and he poured her some coffee and then handed her the cup and took a sip. "This is actually pretty good." She said taking another sip.
"Thanks, by the way you snore in your sleep."
"Ya, ya." She then took another sip of her coffee. "So what's the plan for today?"
"Probably going to swing by the town hall to see if they translated it and then stock up on what ever supplies we need and go get the key." The rest group soon got up and had some breakfast when they finished Thompson spoke up.
"I'm going to leaving soon, so does anyone want to come with?" Everyone but Vulcan shook their heads in agreement.
"You guys go ahead, I'll catch up later." After a good bit everyone left, Vulcan looked around to check if anyone was there and soon took out a faded, burned picture of a young girl and had a slight smile and tears going down his face and spoke softly. "One day i'll come back." Soon Grom walked in.
"Wow is everything alright, I never thought thought you had another kind of emotion than slightly happy and really anger." After Grom saw his photo in his hand Groms face turned from a smirk to a guilty look. "Sorry man I didn't see the picture. Is that your daughter?"
"No she's my sister. I haven't seen her in four years and spoke to her in two."
"Wow, I never knew you had a sister."
"Ya, well I don't like to tell people my life story." Vulcan then looked at the picture and had a slight smile.
"How old is she?"
"Eighteen now. Now can you leave me alone now."
"You know I have a sister." Grom said pulling out a photo of two people holding beer bottles and laughing. "This is a photo of me and my sister at her twenty-fifth birthday." He then pointed to the young women with short brown hair and green eyes. "I couldn't say goodbye, you did." He then got up.
"Why did you show me this." Vulcan then got up.
"I don't. Just to make you feel better. Anyways we got the location on the vault key. I was sent here to fetch you." The two soon left the home and made their way towards the town hall. They went in and went to the holo-board.
"So where's the vault key?" Vulcan asked Tannis.
"Thats the problem. It been split into three pieces, but I got the first location." She then pointed to a location North of Fyrestone.
"Alright we'll get some supplies and get the key in an hour."
"Alright, I'll go back to translating the coordinates." They soon headed to Marcuses to get new guns and get more ammunition, they then went to Zed's to get healed up. Then went to the Fast travel station and punched in the coordinates but then Maya ran up and handed them a case.
"Put the fragment in the case first thing or you will get eridian posing and get the shivers." They then fast traveled to Fyrestone.
"God this place is creepy." Drezir said shivering at the site of all the abandoned homes and Hyperion equipment. "Can't believe that Hyperion left all of this stuff."
"What do expect, Jack was running the company to the after he died the company stop funding anything jack started, like trying to kill the vault hunters or trying to cilizile the the except the eridan mining." said Hunter
"How do know all that?"
"I'm Hyperion tech, and I'm still wired into the main frame. So I can access level-5 or lower files. It's mostly who's getting laid off and how much the holiday bonus is. It sucks to be Timmy right now."
"That's cool, I think." They then exited the abandoned town and made their way to the quickest catch-a-ride and spawned a saw blade bandit technical and drove north.
"So you guys think we'll see more of this Hailfire?" asked Doris.
"You can count on it. This chick is a grade-A psycho." Thompson said. They continued to drive through a few miles of hazardous terrain. They were shot at by bandits and chased by large rakks but was relatively quiet except for Doris playing her music at full blast. "Can you turn that down. It sucks."
"Sorry that I'm just trying to pass the time away."
"We're about to there in five minutes." Doris then turned off her music player and stuck her tongue at Thompson. For the rest of the trip they remained quiet. They soon approached a ridge that overlooked ruins. Thompson got out and pulled out his Jakobs rifle and looked down the sight.
"What do you see Tom." said Grom.
"First, don't ever call me Tom. Second, Heilfire's men are here. Thirdly, these guys are well armed, they got some High tech stuff, so going guns ablazing won't work. But I got a plan."
-5 minutes later-
"You hear something?" said a heavily armed guard.
"I think I hear work not being done and one one more thing. Oh" The man looked up to see a bandit technical coming down on to them.
"You asshole you going to get us kill." Vulcan yelled Holding on for dear life.
"Woohoo." Soon the truck landed on three soldier. Then grom started to fire the saw blades at the surprised he was fireing he cut through five armed soldiers. Soon everyone got out but Thompson and Grom. Thompson continued to plow through many enemies and Grom fired upon three rocket wielding enemy soldiers. Drezir grabbed his corrosive shotgun and blew a hole into a man that was about stab Doris. Hunter his smg and shot and killed three armored enemies. After a couple of minutes of no stop kill the area outside of ruin was cleared.
"Is it clear?" Doris asked clutching her SMG ready to blow a hole into any enemy.
"For now,but my gut tells me that those guys were supposed to slow us down." said Drezir. Soon they started to go into the ruin. As they made their way into the ruin Vulcan ran up to Thompson and punched him in his shoulder.
"Jackass, you could have gotten me killed."
"Sorry man." They then went into the ruin and clutched their weapons. As they went through the ruin there was a strange sound. Then a large robot came jumping down (Intro) Sarg3nt-00. Ten-hut.
"This is going to hurt." The large robot said making a fist. The huge beast soon swung its large metal arms at the group but each one of them lucky dodged the devastating blow. Doris and Grom soon released their Robots. Groms drones did a devastating blow to the hunk of junks legs but it got Kamikaze attacks did little to the mech. It swatted the little robot as if it was a fly. The mech soon fired rockets at Doris and Grom and it nearly hit them but still sending them flying. Drezir shot this corrosive shotgun then put his scythes together. He then rushed at the mech and it swung its arms, but he dodged and cut the right arm off the mech. It fired chain gun at Drezir but Thompson stood in front of Drezir soaking up all of the bullets. Thompson grabbed one of his grenades and stuck it onto the mechs face and stepback. A few seconds later an explosion of ice happened and the mech collapsed, everyone in the group step forward and pumped tons of bullets into the beast until their guns were empty. They then started to look around but then a hatched open. Everyone of them looked into the opening and found a scrawny man in what looked liked a driver seat.
"Say cheese."He said in a scrawny voice. Then there was a flash and he started laugh manicly. But before any of them could react he died of his wounds. Doris then climbed down and looked around. She was then started to climb out but her foot hit a button and another door opened a door and a faint purple glow appeared.
"That was easy." Doris said with a smirk. Hunter then climbed into the cockpit and put the fragment into the case. They then went out of the ruin and loaded into the bandit technical and drove to the closes fast travel station. And the first second they came back Axton came towards them.
"You guys need to see this." He then ran towards the newsstand and thats where they saw it. Six wanted poster of them.
"What the." said Drezir.
"Well now you guys are truly vault hunters when you have wanted posters." Drezir then grabbed the six poster and read them aloud from highest bounty to lowest.

"Unfortunately all over the Echo net. So be prepared you guys are going to get some bounty hunters after you."
"Theres a question I have. Who set these up and where did they get this information." Vulcan said.
"Hailfire set these up and were she got this info I got nothin." Axton started walk away but he turned around and yelled. "Ho ya before I forget meet us at town hall in five." He then walked away. They soon went to the town hall and met up with the rest of the Vault hunters.
"We got some good news, but first did you get the fragment?" asked Lilith.
"Yep." Hunter said opening the case revealing the fragment.
"So whats the good news?"asked Drezir.
"We found you guys each homes to stay in. Now all five of you won't need to stay in that cramped apartment." Lilith then handed them four keys.
"Hey wheres my key." asked Vulcan.
"Ho you're staying at that apartment." After they put their keys into their pockets Hunter handed Lilith the key and they left for their new homes but Vulcan who went to the bar.
