As soon as CB was out of sight of the Gunners, he stopped. He realised he just ruined a perfect relationship with the Gunners. CB continued to walk, seeing the locations he was passing. He passed Diamond City, a settlement which was peaceful to say the least. But they had a strict NO SYNTH policy. As he passed he saw a young woman in her early twenties at the gate of Diamond City, yelling angrily at the gate. ''What a loon'' Thought CB. The woman wore a faded cap and a red trench coat. She caught sight of CB and grabbed him. ''You, play along and I'll get you in this godforsaken place'' She whispered. She went over to a box and proceeded to lie and say that CB was a caravan owner and had enough vegetation to keep stocks up in stores scattered around Diamond City. She used her words to duel the box into submission. The gate opened, with rattle and clickity-clacks. Inside the gate was a man of about 50. He grabbed the woman angrily and shouted at her. CB learnt the woman's name was 'Piper' and she was a local reporter who's articles were controversial, to say the least. He learnt her latest article was about Diamond City security corruption. The mayor welcomed CB into the city and then walked away. CB walked into the city. Immediately the bright lights hit him, almost knocking him down. The place was sprawling with wastelanders, big and small, skinny and fat, stories to tell and secrets to keep. CB saw a noodle stand and went down. The noodles were being made by a robot called a 'Protectron' who was stirring a bowl of noodles. The robot caught sight of CB and said something in a different language. CB said yes and got a bowl of noodles. CB ate some and something bad happened... The noodles corrupted his systems and created an impulse to massacre. He got out his combat rifle and loaded it. His cause was set. He took aim on a person enjoying their noodles and pulled the trigger. The bullet hit the person's head, a bloody explosion occurred. Blood covered customers. The robot was showered with bits of head. Due to by-standers being shocked, CB made easy work of them. Blood littered the ground, runners being shot. However, the majority got away. A diamond city guard to a shot at CB's shoulder and blew a bit off. Electrics sparks flew everywhere. Once again, he had been exposed. He had broken his mask. CB collected his senses and ran. Diamond City security shot at him, denting his metal body. He continued to sprint as fast as his synthetic body could allow. He ran out of the gate and into the wild. He continued to walk to the Glowing Sea...
