Chapter 2
Mr. Vault-One-oh-One
"Shit!" I yell aloud to myself, as I start to tinker around with the atomic bomb of Megaton. I wanted to help this town out, since I ran into Mr. Burke Bell, plus caps isn't bad either, but what have I gotten myself into? I sigh and after what seems like hours, I finally complete my mission. Dogmeat runs up to me with his tail wagging, I smile and pet his head.
"Now to find, Mr. Simms for my caps, a deed," I say to myself, as I walk to the entrance of Megaton.
As I walk, I see Mr. Simms talking to a young woman. Well she is around my age maybe younger, I really do not know. People seem to look older in the waste, and I am still a way off. As I walk up, I see that the girl is wearing raider armor; she has short messy light brown hair and bright amber eyes. She is about a foot shorter then me and way skinner, but I can tell that she is stronger. Mr. Simms glares at her, as she talks to him.
"Look I'm just looking for that Vaultie, okay?" She tells him.
Simms just looks wearily at her, his hand gently resting on his gun. The girl sighs and shakes her head. She spits out some cuss words, that I have never heard a girl utter. Sure Amata cussed once in a while, but not as bad as this girl. I grin and walk up to the pair.
"I'm here for my caps and deed," I tell Mr. Simms.
Simms looks at me in disbelief. "You actually did it," he says and hands me a bag full of caps, along with a key and deed to a house.
He grins and looks over at the girl, who is now storming off. "She was looking for you," he starts, "but be careful kid, I've never seen a raider with enough balls to walk into Megaton by themselves." He tells me.
I nod and run up to the girl. She stops and looks at me. Dogmeat sniffs her; she looks down at him, then back to me.
"Yeah?" She asks me.
I smile. "I heard you where looking for me," I tell her.
An evil looking smirk crosses her face.
"You're the Vaultie?" She asks and looks up and down at me.
"Fuck…Thought you were older or at least stronger looking," she tells me.
"Well...Hell!" she adds, not letting me stand up for myself.
"Look here girly," I say and poke her shoulder, but she quickly grabs my arm and bends it behind me.
"Ahh!" I yell and I see Simms look over at us.
"Don't call me girly! Got it?" I hear the girl hiss in my ear.
"Sorry," I shakily apologize, as I fell her let me go.
She sighs and starts to leave Megaton. I run after her, trying not to touch her again. The girl stops and looks at me.
"What?" She questions me, with a tired voice.
"Didn't you want a job?" I ask her, now wanting her help, because I don't know the waste and I need to find my father.
"With you? I'm not sure...Though you were some great wastelander, but…" She starts, but I interrupt her.
"I'll pay you…Double if you like…Your right I'm not that strong but I'm good with a gun and I need to find my father," I tell her looking into her eyes almost pleaded and mentally kick myself for that.
She gives me that smirk again and I feel a shiver run down my spine, despite the head. She grabs my hand and shakes it. "Your have a deal then,"
"I'm Jinx," she tells me.
I shake out my arm and shake her hand back. "Kaden," I tell her.
"Guess I'll have no choice, I'm not going back to being a raider…" She starts.
"But you better be good with a weapon and not a fucking coward, Kaden," She tells me.
I nod. "I'm not," I tell her.
She nods back. "Good, now buy be a drink and let me rest, we leave first thing in the morning," she tells me and walks past me.
I just shake my head, hoping I made the right decision and not a wrong one.
