This fanfic is about Borderlands 2.
It will be told in the POV of my OC, Terra.
It will contain lesbianism, possible lemon, cussing, violence, gore, blood, and character death.
With all of this out of the way, let's get started.


Chapter 12

"NO FREAKING WAY!" I exclaimed loudly when I got the news from Tannis the next morning after the party. "I am being completely serious when I say that, once Lilith when back to the Warrior's vault to destroy the Vault Key, a giant map appeared of numerous different vaults all around the galaxy appearing, and there are even a few new ones that have revealed themselves on Pandora!" Tannis smiled. "Which ones are on Pandora?" Gaige asked with a smile.

"Well, there are three in question that have cropped up on Pandora. One of them is in the Hunting Grounds, where Hammerlock usually goes to hunt rare and exotic animals... then there is one in an area riddled with sand pirates that will sure to be a thrilling adventure, and finally there is a vault that has opened in a large crater that-" Tannis was about to finish before our computers suddenly got hijacked by a very loud man with hulking muscles and an impressive set of facial hair. "BOOOORING! YOU DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT THAT, VAULT HUNTER! YOU WANT ACTION, FAME, AND ALL THE GLORY YOU GOT! SO I GOT ONE QUESTION FOR YOU! EXPLOSIONS?!" the guy exclaimed loudly into the computer, Tannis trying to get rid of him with a frown. "Get off this Echo frequency you protein guzzling buffoon! I was just trying to-" Tannis was about to say until the big guy talked again.

"THAT SENTENCE HAD TOO MANY SYLLABLES! APOLOGIZE!" he exclaimed, me finally recognizing who he was when I saw a certain symbol behind him on a flag. "Are you the president of Torgue? The weapon manufacturer that only makes explosive weaponry?" I asked him, wondering if my hunch was right. "YOU GOT THAT RIGHT, SUPER SIREN! HAHAHA!" he exclaimed loudly. "Rgh... As I was saying, the Vault has appeared in a large crater, but it will only open for, and I quote, 'when the greatest hero on Pandora spills the blood of the ultimate coward!" Tannis said. "WE HERE AT TORGUE WANNA STATE FOR THE RECORD THAT THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME! SO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO PROVE THEIR MEDDLE, COME ON DOWN TO THE BADASS CRATER OF BADASSITUDE!" Torgue exclaimed, me smiling at that.

"Well, time to go to this crater he mentioned," I smiled as we then went out of the HQ and we tried to see if we could get some other people to join us. "Hey, Tina? Wanna come with us to a tournament to determine the Number 1 Badass?" I smiled at her. "ARE YA KIDDING?! LET ME IN THAT THING!" Tina exclaimed like a crazy person as she joined us and I got Angel to join me as well as Gaige and Maya joining my side. We then got into the Fast Travel and saw that Torgue had given us the coordinates already. "Let's go," I smiled as we warped directly to the start of the crater and we got a message from Torgue.

"WELCOME TO THE BADASS CRATER OF BADASSITUDE, BADASSES! LET'S GET RIGHT TO THE MONEY! FIRST OFF, YOU GOTTA SIGN A LEGAL WAVER!" Torgue exclaimed as we then went to the machine in question and, after I turned it on, the machine exploded out of nowhere, my shield eating most of the damage, although I still felt a bit in pain from the remainder of the blast! "JUST KIDDING FUCK THE WAVER! BADASSES DON'T NEED WAVERS, THEY NEED BLOOD! NOW HEAD DOWN TO THE ARENA AND GET A SPONSOR FOR LEGAL FUCKING REASONS!" Torgue exclaimed at the top of his lungs.

"Hehe, I could learn to like this guy," Tina smiled. "Wait... if we need a sponsor, then why can't one of us be the sponsor in question? Huh?" Angel smiled. "Really? And which of us would be the sponsor, again?" I smiled. "I would be the sponsor, duh," Angel smirked. "Good point... you are still technically a Hyperion employee after all. You could go under the title of Hyperion as your sponsor," Gaige admitted. "Maybe... and maybe I could even try and get the Hyperion people to get their act together and actually change for the benefit of Pandora rather than being major douche bags," Angel admitted. "HEY TORGUE! WE GOT OURSELVES A SPONSOR ALREADY! HER NAME IS ANGEL, HER BUSINESS BEING HYPERION!" I exclaimed into the Echo like he would. "WOOO! YOU HAVE QUITE A VOICE THERE, VAULT HUNTER! SICK GUITAR RIFF! MEELOWEEELELEEELOOOOOOOOWWW! ! !" Torgue exclaimed loudly, me loving at how much he was into himself. He was kind of like the complete opposite of Handsome Jack. He didn't want to destroy the world, he wanted to make people smile and kick the snot out of each other.

"Okay, let's try and make our way to the arena," Gaige smirked as she, Tina, myself, and Maya all headed for the arena, all of us seeing that there were a whole slew of baddies in our midst, none of them lasting long against our weaponry. "YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THAT EVERYONE'S TRYING TO KILL YOU ALL! YOU GIRLS ARE ALL IN THE NUMBER 50 BADASS RANKING, WHICH PUTS YOU BEHIND MY GRANDMA, BUT ABOVE SOME GUY SHE SHOT TO DEATH! IF YOU WANNA BE THE ULTIMATE WINNER, YOU NEED TO MOVE UP THE RANKS BY DEFEATING YOUR OPPONENTS!" Torgue yelled again. "Do you ever speak in anything but all caps?" Maya asked him. "NOT ON YOUR LIFE, VAULT HUNTER!" Torgue exclaimed.

"Like I said, I like this guy," Tina smiled. "Angie, you should probably head somewhere to set up a base of operations we'll handle the first event," I smirked to her. "Okay, good luck. I'll try and contact Hyperion in the meantime and see if they respond," Angel said. "Understood," I smiled as we went into the front steps of the arena and we saw someone there we didn't ever see before. He looked very intimidating with a metal lower jaw, two giant guns for his hands, and having a turret atop his head. And he was currently in an interview with someone.

"Mister Piston, sir. What do you have to say to all the people who think of you as a cheater and that you got to the Number 1 ranking through lies and trickery?" the reporter asked. "Well, I'd have to say this to 'em," Piston said as he shot the guy in the shoulder and he looked to be in pain as Piston then punched the camera in the lense. "I. AM. NOT. A. CHEATER!... And you can take that to the press," Piston said as I just looked at him with a frown. "Why did you shoot him? He did absolutely nothing wrong," I frowned at him. "Peh! A bunch of stickly females and... whoa... you're pretty tall. How tall are you?" Piston asked, him being the first to mention my tall 8 foot frame since Claptrap first saw me. "I'm 8 feet tall and I'm the most powerful Siren on the planet. What about you? Why did you shoot him in the shoulder for no reason?" I asked him. "Peh, he had it coming to him. No one calls me a cheater!" Piston growled. "Well, let's just see about your number 1 ranking as we head in there for our first match," I smirked as we then went into the arena to have our first battle.

"THE GAME IS SIMPLE! YOU'LL BE GOING UP AGAINST THE HORDE OF HORRORS FOR FOUR ROUNDS! STAY ALIVE, AND YOU'LL MOVE UP THE RANKS FASTER THAN MY GIRLFRIEND RAN AWAY FROM ME!" Torgue yelled. "Okay then, let's rumble," I smirked as we entered the arena and stayed in a circle, wondering who our first opponents would be. "THE ROUND HAS STARTED! THE HORDE OF HORRORS VERSUS THE VAULT HUNTERS! FIGHT!" Torgue exclaimed.

It was pretty much a losing battle for our opponents as virtually none of them lasted long against our weapons. I conjured rock and metal out of the ground to kill some in one hit while others wearing armor I dealt with by shooting them with my super-fast Bitch gun. We lasted for all four rounds and smiled at Torgue's commentary. "OH HELL YEAH! THE VAULT HUNTERS HAVE MADE IT TO THE NUMBER 5... WAIT A MINUTE! THERE SEEMS TO BE A LAST MINUTE CONTESTANT BARGING HIS WAY INTO THE ARENA!" Torgue exclaimed, me wondering who the heck it would be.

When the door opened up, we were all dumbfounded to see who the last contestant was. Who was it? Well, let's just say that he was psychotic and he had a conscience. "What the hell? Is that a Psycho?" Tina asked. "No... that's not just any Psycho, Tina..." I gawked, Krieg's eyes going wide when I said Tina. And then I heard his conscience start to speak. "M-My daughter! That's my daughter! Tell her that you missed her a lot and that you want her to help you return to normal," I heard the voice say, but then the body said something else. "I prepped my cockatiel for the rib cage slaughter!" the body said, Tina looking surprised when he said that. "Daddy... I didn't know you'd turn out like this..." Tina started to cry. "Hold on, Tina... I think I can help out," I said as I approached Krieg slowly and carefully, speaking to his inner voice in the process. "Stay. I'm going to remove the Eridium from his body and hopefully return him to normal," I said. "Stay still, she only wants to help," the inner voice said to Krieg, the Psycho listening and standing still as I touched his head, me absorbing the Eridium inside of his body and shocking me at how he had a lot in him, but not as much as Bloodwing.

And when I finished, I exhaled it across the arena, no laser coming out, but instead a flume of electricity that made the entire place suddenly get very spine-tingling. I then looked at Krieg's face and saw that he looked tired, but he looked calm and... almost tame. "Did... did it work?... I-I'm talking out of the mouth! I'm back!" Krieg gawked as he removed his face mask to show his face for the first time, me seeing that it was completely normal, but with a few bitten parts on his lips. He most likely wore that mask to prevent the crazy guy from biting himself more. "DADDY!" Tina exclaimed as she rushed to him and hugged him tightly, Torgue sounding confused on the horn. "WHAT'S GOING ON DOWN THERE? WHY ARE THERE NO BULLETS?!" Torgue exclaimed. "Shush, Torgue. One of our allies is reuniting with her family," I smiled at him.

"So does that mean that you want me on your team?" Krieg asked. "Yes, we would," Maya smirked. "THEN THAT MEANS YOU GUYS ARE ALL RANKED NUMBER 5 ON THE RANKINGS! GOOD WORK!" Torgue exclaimed. And then we had Piston come on the horn. "Heh. Piston likes you guys. Here, my boys sent a few weapons to the center of the arena. Go get them," Piston smiled as a large chest appeared in the center of the arena, me smiling as I then opened it up... only to see nothing inside but a note!

"HAH! You really think I'd give you a prize? Nobody dares to mess with Piston's arena! Now just so you know, the cameras are all off and that room is now filling with gas. Just succumb to it and fall asleep, like good cowards," Piston said as the chest started to emit green smoke and I started to feel very sleepy. "N-No... must... fight... urge to... slllleeeee..." I groaned as I conked out onto the ground and felt my eyes give up on me. I entered sleep and didn't know what would come next.
