Hey everybody. Sorry this took so long. This is the next installment of Fallout Effect. Also I have been told to warn you. This story has graphic violence of the robot and plant ripping kind as well as pyromaniac fun.
I don't own fallout or mass effect but I will someday… but not today yet.
We made it back to Fai Dan and Shepard started to ask questions about the colony and why the Geth were so intent on destroying it. His little girlfriend kept being bitchy about us being here. Finally we moved away and Shepard has me and Garrus get the power cells and kill that alpha varren. Tali and she would get the water and Geth transmitter.
Venik and Garrus (Garrus p.o.v)
As we walked down the tunnel looking for the varren I looked at Venik then asked, "Earlier you said something didn't feel right about the colony. What did you mean exactly?" Venik looked at me and shrugged, "They seem off. It isn't really noticeable but after living in the wastelands you learn to notice even the tiniest sign of a trap or trick. The way they seem dead or like puppets might seem like lack of sleep and food but it's too strange and jerky to be natural. Also they won't answer any question they only say ask Fai Dan even when I asked one which way to Fai Dan." I stare at him in shock. I hadn't really thought about that, I had just assumed they were tired and hungry. I nod and we head deeper into the tunnels. As we turn a corner we see four troopers and a destroyer. Venik threw a CAN at them but then it blew in a mini mushroom cloud like the old atomic bombs of human history. As we took down the last survivor I idly wondered how it was going for Shepard and Tali.
Shepard and Tali (no p.o.v)
They were walking down a short tunnel when two Geth drones hovered down and fired upon them but four shotgun blasts took them down. "I would have thought the Geth would protect the transmitter better than this," says Shepard as they move past the ruined drones. Tali shakes her head and says, "There should be more Geth or something here." As she said that two krogan turn the corner and see them. They charge roaring at them but Shepard throws a grenade a few feet in front of them and her and Tali fire shotgun blasts at them and when they hit the grenade Shepard detonated it killing both krogan. "Girl power to the rescue," yells Shepard high fiving Tali. Turning the corner the krogan came from they see the transmitter but also three troopers. Pulling her assault rifle Shepard fires as Tali hacks and jams their weapons. Finally clear Shepard buts some C4 on the transmitter and as they walk away the C4 detonates.
Garrus and Venik (Venik p.o.v)
I was laughing as I watched Garrus get chased by a varren intent on eating him. It was funny because he was screaming like a chicken with its head cut off. I wonder how that works. Finally I grabbed it and snapped its neck. Garrus just glared as if it was all my fault. I shrug and move over to the large Mako like vehicle. Pulling out two large power cells I atomize them and callout to Garrus and yell, "Let's go man and meet up with Shep and Tali topside." Once topside we meet up with Shepard and Tali. While Garrus gave them the power cells and told the hunters the alpha varren was dead I regaled the events of Garrus running around being chased by a varren. Then we headed to the skyway to head to exo-geni and the reason of Saren's attack of the colony. Reaching the Mako I took the gun while Garrus made Shepard allow him to drive the Mako. Shepard was pissed the entire drive because Garrus said he wanted to live and me and Tali agreed. It wasn't too exciting anyway there were only six armatures and maybe a dozen troopers in our way. We made a stop when we had radio contact with exo-geni workers. One lady asked for us to look for her daughter but this one bastard said that once the Geth where gone they could account for casualties. I wanted to deck him. There was a chance for that girl to be alive and he only cared for company secrets. We headed out again but had to ditch the Mako at the garage.
Once inside we headed for a door up the ramp. once there Tali started to hack through the door as we stood guard. "does anybody else have a bad feeling," asked Shepard. "You mean the fact this place is supposed to be crawling with Geth and yet we haven't even seen a single one not even a destroyed one from the security force that has to have been guarding this place based on that bastard back there," I say while scanning the room. I keep hearing a faint scuffle but I couldn't place it's location. "Theres something here but i can't tell where." Tali yelled "Got it", but it turned out to be an armature tucked into the room right past the door. Seeing it preparing to fire I tackled Tali out of the way barely missed I could feel a round graze my armor the shields too weak at this close range. Then as we pulled away from the doorway Geth popped out of hidden ledges and started to fire on us. Pulling my assualt rilfe I fired on Geth as i looked for a way out. "Look a way out", Garrus yelled pointing to a small damaged stairway down. Nodding I lay down cover fire as the others drop then throwing a couple pulse grenades I drop down too. We head out and as we walked I set up a few pulse mines and I grenade banquet as well. Pulling around a corner a shot rang out as a rounf impacted the side of my helmet.( he is using the hellfire armor) Turning i see a young woman. She dropped the pistol and yelled, "Sorry I thought you where a Geth or Krogan." Shepard moves forward to comfort her as I take a look around. Seeing a couple Varren I nudge Garrus and point to the Varren he nods and nudges Tali. I pull out my "Terrible" shotgun and get ready for for a fight. The varren charge but due to the distance we drop six before they reach us. the last ten charge Elizabeth as she has no armor or weapon due to her dropping her pistol after she shot at me. Firing i cut one down and hit another in the flank and cause it to stumble away from where it almost tackled Tali. As we took the last down I heard distant explosions from behind.
(3rd P.O.V)
Hearing the explosions Shepard turned towards Elizabeth and tell her to head towards the garage while they cleared out the building. As we headed out Shepard walked beside Venik, "How long will it take them to reach us?" He turned to her and said, "They aren't the problem we need to move so when the tunnel collapses we aren't buried with them." Entering the main building took a minute due to the unstable building. hearing a single gunshot Shepard turned to she a single Geth platform fall from a ledge. The Geth resistance inside was minimal strangely until they found a large antechamber filled to the brim with Geth. "Shit mother Fucking shit," Venik hissed looking out there, "I count atleast 150 maybe 195."
(Venik P.O.V)
Looking out at them I couldn't figure a way until I noticed around the middle was a power generator with fuel cells, explosive cells, Pulling My version of a MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs), The MIRV capable of firing eight mini nukes at once but highly dangerous to use. Turning I listen to Shepard try to come up with a plan. "Shepard, I have A way but its risky. This is the MIRV it fires eight mini nukes if I hit that generator it would pretty much wipe there Geth off the face of this planet but the radiation is enourmous. nothing to me really but it would be to you." Shepard looks at me for a moment and nods, "Do it now." I turn and slowly exale aiming carefully. one pull of the trigger and its done, turning I push them back yelling run for your lives. BBOOOOOOOMM!The concussion sends us hurtling away from the blast zone. After a minute I ask, "Think any survived?" They stare at me like I am insane, oh wait I think I am.
Thats this enstallment of Fallout Effect. i hope to get the next quicker. Next time on fallout Effect: The Thorian's Funeral Prye.
