*The day after, at lake mead in the morning*
John, liz, Veronica and Cass stood at the shores of lake mead, near one of the BoS's safehouses. There they waited for Sarah Lyons to arrive to evac the remaining Mojave chapter to D.C. After waiting for a few hours the vertibirds finally arrived. They manage to avoid attention from Hoover Dam and landed on the avaible LZ there was. One of them landed infront of the group and out came Sentinel Lyons, with her plasma rifle in hands.
"Paranoid Sarah?" John asked with a wicked smile.
"Precaution, never know what might come at us" She said, and then looked over the Liz "You know how many ribs Micheal had broken?" She asked
"I had hoped for a broken leg" Liz told the BoS veteran.
"Like almost all of his ribs got broken when he fell down, had to have him carried to the infirmary" Sarah told her with a laugh in the end.
Liz Just nodded and said "Nice"
Nolan, the chapter's elder had arrived after Sarah landed. She quickly saw that he had the robes of an elder and addressed to him.
"You most be the elder, I am Sarah Lyons representive of the D.C chapter of the BoS" She introduced herself
"Im Nolan Mcnamara, elder and representive of the Mojave chapter BoS" He introduced himself.
John and his friends gather while the negotiation was under go.
"Looks like things goes as planned" John said cheerful to Veronica, who didnt looked much pleased
"Something wrong Vee?" He noticed and asked
"Is just, i am happy that they are relocating, but where does that leave me?" She asked
"I thought you wanna stay with them?" Cass asked
"I do, but i kinda also feel like i should stay, you know stay with you guys and make a diffrence" She told them. Veronica were really confused and did not know what to do. She then looked at John and asked "What is there in the D.C ruins?"
"Well, the city itself is not like Vegas. There are settlements but the city itself is a like a mace, get lost and your screwed. But the BoS there are working on making it more safer with regular patrols and such" He told her
"Are they trying to improve the wasteland there?" She then asked
"Well doing my travels i came across some power stations which still had some juice in them. It would take a lot but if we could connect it to the settlements then power should not be a problem"
"If D.C were so grand, why ya came here then?" Asked a confused Cass
"It was boring!" Said a bored Liz "Big shot here, took all the fun out" She added
Just then, Nolan approached them with Sarah behind him.
"It seems like we are going to D.C Veronica. You ready to go?" He asked the young scribe
She just shook her head and said "No, not yet"
He had a confused looked in his face like all the others. Vee notice and said "I want to see this through, if John made such a tribute to the D.C ruins maybe he could do the same here and i would love to be a part of it"
"Are you sure Veronica?" Nolan asked hoping she would say no and come with him, he knew she was genius through she does not behave like one.
"I am, but after things done here maybe i can join you sometime" She said. Nolan looked a bit sad by her desicion but respected it.
"If thats what you want, then i see no stopping you. But know this that you will always be welcome" He assured her. Veronica and Nolan then walked to some of the chapters members to inform them that Vee wont join them yet. Sarah then waved John over for a private talk.
"I guess your not coming back" She guessed a little sadly
"Yeah, people in the vault hates me, and i got a good setup here" He told her. She didnt looked disappointed by his choice, but not glad eighter.
"Then i cant stop you can i huh?" She retorical asked him with a little laugh.
John then were serious and said "I will try and visit sometimes, have to make sure you dont fall apart when im gone" and smilled and watched her board the vertibird and flew off.
"Meanwhile"
After each of their trips were done, they regrouped at the dam for a new briefing. Seems like Moore got her hands full with the president's upcoming visit and her ranger deployments. Reilly knocked on the door and the colonel hissed them to come in. After they walkind in, Moore quickly looked at Boone and Jaden.
"I heard of you two's involement at bitter springs. I just want to tell you that its greatly appreciated that you were there, lot of lives could have been destroyed that day" She complimented the two snipers
"I got a new task for you, its very simple and it should not be a problem for you. After uncovering the legion spy, thanks to Reilly, we still got problems in that area. Fiends are getting organized and may try and attack camp McCarran doing the battle for Hoover dam. You job is simple, eliminate all 4 of their leaders, major Dharti at McCarran got more information on the matter. Dismised" She told them. They gather outside to discuss the job.
"Hunting fiends? Why do i feel like my talents are going to waste?" Jaden asked annoyed
"We could leave you camp golf and train the soldiers again" Suggested Ben.
"The fiends it is" She quickly changed her mind.
"I know it may seem like a waste, but organized fiends is the least we need" Reilly explained to them as they began their trip to McCarran.
"12 hours later, at Nellis"
The mistfit group of Veronica, Cass, Liz and John could quickly gain the aid of the boomers. They helped them fixing the solar panels, killing ants, fixing injured people and finally helped them retrive a bomber from lake mead. It would take days, maybe weeks for a single person to do it all alone, but with the 4 of them they manage to do it on half a day.
Cass, Veronica, Liz and John decided to gain the support of the people. They already got some by helping around freeside, Now they needed to work on Ultra-lux and Gomorrah. John and Cass took the Ultra-lux while Liz and Vee took Gomorrah. They agreed that after they were done they would meet at the Lucky 38.
At the Ultra-lux, John and Cass got in and handed over their weapons. They noticed an old man at the bar looking rather sad and desperate.
"Something wrong sir?" John asked while walking towards him.
"There is, you wouldnt have seen my son would you? straw hat, blue jeans?" He asked them
"Cant say we have" Cass answered.
"Dammit all to hell. One moment i decide to settle a meeting with the hotels management, and the next my boy goes missing without a clue" The man told them.
"Dont you think your son just went to Gomorrah or something" John suggested
"My son wouldnt go near that place. I also told him that he remained in this hotel doing our stay" He told them.
Cass looked tired and said "Okay down to buisness, you want us to find your son, promise us 500 caps and we do it"
"Deal, you get the money after you found my boy" He demanded.
"Meanwhile"
Liz and Veronica already had Cachino in their pocket, now that they got his journal picked from him (Thanks to Liz). All they had to do was get rid og Clanden, and destroy the Omerta's guns. They decided that taking out Claden will be the easiest start. They got in the elevator up to the suite floor And asked the guards where Clanden was.
"Hmmm, big room" Liz noticed as they stepped in. They quickly notice a guy in pre-war clothes and a pair of glasses took notice of them and moved over to them.
"Yeah? something i can do for you?" He asked rather quickly
"I was just wondering, are you Clanden?" Liz asked in a seductive manner but it seemed not to work on him.
"Yes and who are you?" He asked
"Well, we are the new working girls here at Gomorrah, and the boss thinks that you should have a go with the new stuff" Liz bluffed while Vee looked at her with wide eyes.
"Well have a go with each but count me out, i got work to do" He denied annoyed at their presents. Vee just took a playfull look at Liz and said
"He did said 'we 2' should" But was silence by a killer glare from the mutant girl. Liz looked back at Clanden with an tired and annoyed face.
"Listen crap for brains, we know you're a 'specialist' for the bosses, so do yourself a fucking favor and tell us what it is you do" She said
The man just stood there not even touched by the hostility from Liz. "The arrangements with the bosses and i are for us to know, and not for annoying bitches like you. Now get out before the guards gets here" He warned them
Liz didnt wanna play Q and A anymore, so she did what she likes best. Tearing the man apart. She jump at him with claws first on his shoulders, followed by a series of slash across his body, ripping his clothes to shreds. He tried to scream, but before he could Liz had hold her hand on his mouth so the guards wont hear him. She then finally slashed his throat open, killing him instantly.
"I see now why John does all the talking. If you led us, you would have slaughtered half the Mojave now" Said a slightly scarred Veronica.
She got up and dried some of the blood off her. "I know, that would have been more fun" She said sounding a bit sad. Veronica just backed up a bit and went into the master bedroom in the suite, while Liz dragged the body to the bathroom.
After poking around with a safe, Veronica cracked open it and took out the note that was in there.
"I found something" She said
"Read it, im trying to cover up the blood here!" Liz told her, while taking a carpet to cover the blood pool.
"Meanwhile"
"I swear, im here to check on the kitchens water pipes, Mortimer wanted to make sure everything is in check" John told one of the masked servants.
"Then what is she doing here? She doesnt look like technician" He suspected
"She's my girl. You see in exchange for the repairs, we were given a free room for the week. I told her to relax and enjoy the hotel, but she heard some rumors and wanted to be near me. Even in work hours" John lied as best he could.
"Eh, fine just be quick about it and get out" He said quite annoyed of their present. Cass almost kicked him in the ass as he turned around but was held back by John.
"No kicking!" He whispered to her, and then began to make their way to the kitchen. They quickly found it and saw the main chef was looking frustrated and ready to yell at anyone.
Im going to stop here this chapter before it gets out of hand
