003. Enraptured
The group of mutants marched to the east. The trip was relatively uneventful, a few Radscorpians here and there, but raiders and other groups of humans tended to shy away from attacking groups of 10 foot tall monsters.
When they reached the outskirts of the D.C. Ruins, the leader, who John had learnt was generally called 'Big Master' said that they were going to the Mall to fight some 'stupid Talon men'.
Going through the metros was slightly more interesting more the Muties, after all, there were lots of Raiders to eat down there, and many of the group hadn't eaten for weeks.
"You watch for the metal men when we go, they are hard to smash!" Said Big Master as the group approached the exit of the metro, "we run straight to the big pointy building were others are! There a Behemoth inside!"
Fortunately for John, the group had chosen the Museum station to emerge from, meaning they didn't have to deal with any Brotherhood. However, what greeted them was far from promising, bodies lay scattered about everywhere, some rotting and others simply being picked apart by ravens.
"Did humans do this?" asked John, angered by the sheer amount of his brothers that had been killed
"Yes, humans kill many of us! That why we need more green stuff! To make more of us and to smash the humans!" Replied Big Master, equally angered, "come on! We go kill some humans!"
As they approached the Capital building, the huge amount of death became clear. There were hundreds of dead Super Mutants and Talon Company strewn over the floor. It was when the battle came into view that the red mist came down. John was overwhelmed by bloodlust, and with a furious roar he charged into the crossfire. He pulled out his sledge hammer and hit a merc over the head so hard that it popped, numb to the bullets burying themselves into his torso, he turned and hit a sentry bot, knocking it over. Then, without warning, the firing ceased, and everyone looked up at the vertibird that was flying overhead.
"Get to the trenches!" shouted an Overlord from somewhere.
Amazed and terrified by the vehicle, John just stood below it and only realised that he should go as the mini nukes started to impact the ground around hit.
It went black.
A small amount longer than the others, I apologise for the wait, I hope this makes up for it. I actually quite like this chapter, as always, reviews are appreciated and any suggestions are very welcome.
