After equipping myself with some pieces of metal armor, I grabbed some grenades, 1 Assault Rifle and a kickass Rocket Launcher to my arsenal. I went outside and fired at the crowed that was outside the house were Nora was.
Of course, I blew a big hole in the house and there was blood all over the place. I ordered Mister Handy to protect me and stick close to me, so with this I have my back covered. Nora and, I assume that the girl she is running with is the one named Piper, managed to escape the house and enter the shop.
- What the well was that!? – yelled Piper while giving hands with the kid that gave us the paper when we arrived – you almost killed us!
- Almost, that is the correct word, now do me a favor, stop complaining about my brilliant plans and recharge the Missile Launcher. Nora, grab a weapon and protect yourself, I need to get Nick from the other side.
- Don't worry, I will – Said Nora.
I grabbed the Assault Rifle and ran to where the agency was, killing some Synths on the way with my trusty robot. I saw Nick struggling while fighting on the roof, so I threw a grenade to where the group that was causing him trouble was and killed them. He got down the roofs with his secretary.
- I won't even ask where you go those weapons – he said.
- Come on, leave the detective work for another day, we need to group up and get out of Diamond City.
We arrived at the shop and there were already Synths trying to get in, so I ordered Mister Handy to burn them all while I killed some others with Nick. I yelled for Nora to come out to escape, she came outside and gave me a Fatman "Here, I'll keep this one" she kept the Missile Launcher. I put it on my back and ran to the exit with them, but some guards where on the way.
Nick told us to follow him through the slums of Diamond City and so we did. We still had to kill many people while running, but Nick knew a way to go outside. We eventually stopped, and Nick told me to throw a grenade to open a path, and so I did. Nick was it right, that whole lead right outside the city, but that left a passage for them to follow us.
I told Nora to give me the Missile Launcher to fire at the hole and close it, but she refused and fired it herself, needing less to say, she got the recoil and flew a few meters back. I laughed my ass of as I helped her up and started running to safety with them. One hour of running and we were out at the wasteland in safety and catching our breath.
- So, any of you want to start in how am I going to find Nathan and finally put an end to this? – I asked while lighting up a cigarette that I found inside the store.
- Honestly? I think neither of us know – said Piper – I mean, we helped him, but neither of us went inside the Institute.
- At the time, Nathan discovered how they traveled to the Institute, that I know, but the machine that implicated for that transport to work, it was with the help with the Brotherhood of Steel and the Minuteman. – said Nick.
- Great, I need to find some person who can speak with ghosts, because I know that they are all dead. – I said really pissed off.
- So this is basically useless? – said Nora worried.
- You can try two things – said Piper – try and visit the Minuteman Old Castle, and the Brotherhood of Steel base crash site.
- That's not a bad idea, maybe you can salvage old blueprints in how the machine works, or logs that were recorded, or even a survivor – said Nick – I don't know any, but there might still be hope.
- Great, two ways to go, you know what – I stood up – you two go to Sanctuary and tell John and Jane to move their asses and go to that Minuteman Castle, I'll go to the crash site, I need some real salvage while I am there.
- I'll go with you then – said Nora.
- All right, I'll see you guys back at Sanctuary i days, just pinpoint the location of the crash site.
Nick gave me the location and so I went with Nora to the Brotherhood of Steel base crash site.
