AHOY TATERS WELCOME TO CH FIVE OF FALLOUT QUEST! IN THIS CHAPTER TOBIAS, SIX AND AXIMILI WILL GO TO PRIMM AND FIGHT MORE EVIL MONSTER GIRLS THERE!

MY LIPS ARE SEALED ON THE REST!

DISCLAIMER I DON'T OWN ANIMORPHS, FALLOUT NEW VEGAS OR MONSTER GIRL QUEST!

AXIMILI'S POV!

Greetings, I am Andalite Prince Aximili Esgarrouth isthill.

It is now my turn to write a biographical entry in the journal and I will pick off where my nephew and his first lover left off.

First I "Want to state for the record" as you humans would say, that Tobias said he would "Come get me" the night before after he told me to leave The Prospector Saloon's attic at the request of our Earthworm Girl companion Six.

For the next half hour I heard sounds that disturbingly reminded me of the sloshing of a Yeerk pool, as well as Tobias and Six making noises that reminded me of a dying Djabala.

I considered checking in on them, as the thought that they were fighting was the first thing that crossed my mind.

I chose not to however as Tobias wasn't calling out for my help.

However after six Earth hours and Tobias still hadn't called me to come back up, I grew suspicious and ventured up the stairs.

To my surprise Tobias was missing his artificial skin and covered in thick clear juices which I guessed were some kind of biological fluid from Six who was also missing her artificial skin.

Curious as to why both of them were sweaty, messy and lacking in artificial skin I shook them awake to ask them what happened and if they were fighting.

Apparently I violated a human and by extension a civilized monster girl norm as Six screamed at me "GET OUT YOU PERVERT!" and slammed her tail into my face.

Which leads to the now.

TIME 8:50AM

LOCATION:PROSPECTOR SALOON, GOOD SPRINGS.

My Nephew held a blue cold sack of the human material known as plastic to my left eye "Hold this to your eye Ax man, it should help reduce pain and swelling"

Accepting the blue sack from Tobias I shivered "It's cold-old-colduh what is it?"

Tobias answered "It's called an icepack" before he glanced with a human enpression I had learned was to mean nervousness towards Six who like him was wearing her artificial skin again.

While I sat on a chair on the far left side, Six sat on a chair on the far right and gave me a look where her brows were scrunched downwards and her lips were curled down.

I had learned that an expression like that could be used to express both determination and anger in humans.

Turning to Tobias I asked "Tobias-obias-as why is Six angry-ree-ree-ree that feels good to say! Ree" I briefly lost concentration of what I was saying, the pleasure of playing with a human mouth can do that sometimes to me.

"Angry with me? I was just-juh-juh-just concerned,con-sern-sern-sernuh-duh when neither you or Six came to get me like you said-aid-said you would"

Tobias sighed and his face did that fascinating thing where the lighter skin humans turn red, which I've learned is caused by increased blood flow.

The humans call it blushing and to me it seems counterintuitive to survival.

Tobias clenched his teeth "Well you see…

Ax man…"

He took in a deep gasp of air "Alright I'll come out and say it, Six and I, we fucked we're a couple now or we mated as you andalites would put it"

I nodded my head a human gesture I must've picked up from my human friends on Earth "Aah, you and Six were attempting to produce offspring, though I must question why you chose to produce offspring at this point in time.

Isn't having a house and stable income a key point humans strive for before procreation?"

This was the longest I had gone without playing without my human morph's mouth and it was probably because of my curiosity on why Tobias was trying to so suddenly produce offspring with Six, was so strong that I simply forgot to take time to enjoy the simply pleasure of having a human mouth.

Tobias' face turned an even brighter red as he shouted "OFFSPRING?! NO HELL NO!"

His yelling attracted Six's attention and I heard her say "Spare me" though what she wanted to be spared from eluded me.

Tobias let out a breath of air and made a human expression where he pinched the bridge of his nose "Ax man, remember what you've learned about human reproduction, the penis for males, vagina for females, and the penis goes inside the vagina"

Tobias kept his eyes on the floor, avoiding eye contact with me which if from what I learned from the other Animorphs met Tobias was in an agitated state right now.

I nodded "Yes Tobias-oh-oh-bi-ay-as and the the male's-ales-alezuh penis shoots sperm-spuh-spuh-spermuh-muh into the vagina"

Tobias finally looked up to me "Well unlike you andalites the process of reproduction is pleasurable for us.

In fact, engaging in the act of reproduction is one of the greatest joys humans have since it causes so much pleasure.

We call it sex, and we don't just do it for the sake of having children, we do it for fun too or as a way of showing how much we love each other.

That's why Six and I "Mated" last night, for fun and because we fell in love with each other.

NOT to produce offspring"

I paused 'Mating for fun and to show affection? Sounds illogical and a waste of time. Six and Tobias could be doing other things for fun and to show their affection towards each other'

I spoke "Forgive me if I sound rude Tobias, but mating for fun is illogical and a waste of time, you and Six could be doing other things for fun and to show affection to each other.

Things like teaching each other how to weild your weapons, bonding over future battles and honourable victories over common enemies.

Or sharing the delicious food of Earth with each other"

Tobias chuckled and shook his head, and the way he did it made me feel insulted for some reason.

"Oh Ax Man you just don't understand, if you had sex or experienced even masturbation in your Human morph you would, but alas you come from a virgin race that can't begin to grasp the level of intimacy we humans and by extension monster girls feel when we fuck"

I felt my own lips curl into a frown "There is no need to be so arrogant about it"

Tobias laughed "Consider this payback for all the time you held Andalite technology above our heads"

Tobias then took a breath then exhaled as he resumed a serious demeanor "But we seriously got to get Six to forgive you"

I spoke "I now realize-ruh-ruh-real-eel-ize that I made an error so I'm willing to apologize-pollo-pollo-pollo I love how my lips pop when I say pollo!"

"Focus Ax man!" Snapped my nephew.

"Sorry Tobias, I will do better right now" I said in a more formal tone, getting control over my urges.

Tobias gave a nod "Alright walk behind me, let me do the talking, I'll let you know when to speak ok?"

I suppressed the torch of indignation that ignited in my lone human heart, for it suggested that Tobias a human who was younger then me, was treating me as incompetent as doing a simple task as apologizing on my own.

But then cold hard logic extinguished the indignation, humans and by extension monster girls were very emotional beings with a culture just as alien to andalites as my anatomy was alien to them.

Logic reminded me of all the times I accidentally offended my fellow animorphs due to cultural differences back in Tobias and I's old universe.

So I bit my human tongue and folded my human arms to my side as I followed Tobias to Six's side of the saloon.

Once we got there Tobias spoke "Hey Six, first let me explain that my dear UNCLE"

He emphasized the word uncle for some reason, maybe trying to go for an emotional appeal by pointing out our familial connection.

"Didn't mean to walk in on the aftermath of us having sex, it's not his fault its mine for I told him before he left that I would come get him once you and I were done talking.

I didn't anticipate that we were going to have sex and maybe I should have told you to warn him about what we were about to do so he wouldn't walk in on us."

I observed Six's human like face, using my limited knowledge of human facial expressions to gauge her reaction to Tobias' words.

By my estimations her brows unfurrowed by twenty six percent and her frown raised up by thirty five percent, which made me conclude that Tobias' words were working.

She then spoke, her voice sounding unsure, less angry this time, I would describe it as uncomfortable with an edge to it "Still, it should have been obvious when he walked in on us covered in juices that we were not to be disturbed"

Tobias shook his head "For a human and a civilized monster girl yes, for an Andalite no.

Remember what I told you about how Andalites reproduce?"

Six's brows then unfurrowed by 100% with one brow raising when she spoke I could tell she was now completely confused and the anger gone "Yeah? That they impregnate a tree that lays an-ohh"

And then I could see realization dawn in her eyes.

I saw a smile break out on my nephew's face as he nodded "Exactly Six, Andalite sex is so alien that they can't recognize what human sex or human and monster girl sex looks like!"

Tobias then slid sideways to the left in a way that reminded me of the Venber that me, Tobias and the animorphs fought at the north pole on Tobias' earth.

Tobias then firmly gripped my left bicep and pulled me forward and I realized this was a non verbal social cue from him for me to speak up.

"Six, I really did not understand that you and my nephew had just mated when I walked in on you two sleeping, when I saw you two covered in biological fluids I couldn't identify, after hearing you two make noises akin to a yeerk pool for thirty earth minutes, I grew concerned for both of your well being.

I now know what human and monster girl sex sounds like and will take more precautions next time so that I don't intrude.

I am sorry"

Six frowned, but it wasn't an angry one, her eyes avoided eye contact with mine and eyed the floor.

From what I learned about humans, avoiding eye contact was a sign of discomfort or guilt, I would estimate that it was a fifty percent chance between the two if Earthworm girl expressions were the same as humans.

Six replied "I'm sorry that I hit you Ax man, how's your eye?"

I lifted the blue sack of cold plastic from my swollen left eye "Cold, but I've endured worse from the yeerks, it'll be healed the next time I morph I assure you"

Six shook her head "I overreacted, I'm glad you won't be bruised for long, and thanks for understanding"

"You're or-or-or welcome-elcome-come-come-come, I love how my human tongue hits the roof of my mouth when I say COME!"

I then heard a chuckle come from behind the counter, immediately I felt irritation at my Human morph's lack of eyestalks, that lacked the visual mobility of my true Andalite form.

So I had to go to the trouble of turning my neck to see Trudy, the shellfish girl who had developed what I would assume to be a dangerous obsession with my nephew.

"Oh Phillip you're a card, who knew that my man of destiny's clueless uncle could pull off a dirty joke like that?" Said Trudy before she let out another chuckle.

I felt my lips curl downwards from confusion and I spoke "Trudy-dee-dee-dee, your name is so fun to say by the way! I do not understand what you're saying about me making a dirty-tee-tee, that's almost as fun as Dee! Joke, how can jokes be unclean?"

Trudy stopped chuckling and made an expression that I learned from various soap operas indicated human shock and or disbelief "You didn't just…" she began before she let out a sigh and said

"It's my fault, I should have known better"

I heard my nephew say "Don't feel bad Trudy, Ax man can be very weird so it's ok if you fail to understand his actions half the time"

I felt my pride take a sting from Tobias' words and I spoke "I'll have you know I learned how to act human from the best soap operas and from watching Friends"

Trudy let out a "What? How?! Soap operas and Friends hasn't been around in centuries! Not since the bombs were dropped!"

I cursed myself for making such an aristh error, letting my pride get the better of me.

"He must've watched them in some well preserved ruins" spoke Six before giving me a pointed look alongside Tobias.

I think the human saying was that I now "owed her one".

TIMESKIP!

TOBIAS' POV!

It's me Tobias again, I'm now writing my piece in the journal.

So yeah this morning I helped patch up my uncle and Six's friendship and clear an awkward misunderstanding between the three of us all before breakfast.

After Six and Ax man made up we had breakfast, after which we set off towards Primm.

Which brings us to here, the salt of my sweat trickled down my cheek and onto my lip as the scorching afternoon sun of the desert beat down on me.

Six, Ax man and I stood on a cracked hill the color of dried three day old mustard that was over the shattered decaying remnants of an old road that due to having no maintenance in over two hundred years looked more like cookies that had been crushed in a five year old's hands then a real road.

I heard Six let out a sound beside me "Wooh! The heat out here! It almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter, doesn't it Tobias?"

I wiped some sweat off my brow "Almost anything would be better then this heat"

My uncle spoke up "Are you worried-read-ree-ree-duh about drying up in this heat-eet Six?"

Six shook her head "Nahh, us Earthworm girls have adapted after centuries of living in this post apocalyptic hell and plus" *beep* she un digitized a bottle of her pina colada semen cola and took a swig of it.

To my surprise and slight shame I felt…

Jealousy? Yeah it was jealousy rising up like a groundhog out of its burrow, from my heart that Six was drinking a man's semen that wasn't mine.

Six then to my surprise made a disgusted face as she chugged the semen cola before quickly digitizing it.

"Is something wrong Six? Is the Semen Cola out of date?" I asked.

Six shook her head and gave me a knowing smile "No, it's just that…

I can't enjoy Semen Cola even my favorite flavor the way I used too because I've now tasted the semen of my husband you, and now every other man's semen tastes subpar in comparison"

And just like that my jealousy vanished in a puff of smoke.

It must have shown on my face because Six grinned knowingly "Oh? Jealous over a soda bottle are we? How petty of an alien war veteran such as yourself Tobias"

I sputtered "I wasn't jealous ofAsodabottle!"

As Six laughed and my uncle began to voice his confusion I said "Let's just resume our trek to Primm already, we're gonna cook into bacon at this rate"

I ignored Six's taunting of "Jelly Jelly Jelly! You're green as plasma with envy!" As I descended the hill and onto the road.

I was quickly followed by my uncle and Six, I heard my uncle question Six "Six, I don't undetstand-der-der-stand-standuh what do you mean by Tobias-ias-issuh being green as plasma-asma-muh-muh I love how my human lips press together when I say muh! He's clearly not green and I've never encountered green humans"

I tuned out the rest of their conversation but allowed a smirk to cross my lips 'Ax man being Ax man, clueless as usual about human expressions, he probably just saved my ass from more teasing'

Anyways we walked or in Six's case slithered up twenty one feet nine inches of the crumbled cookie like road before we cane upon a barren gap where the road was completely missing.

For eleven feet and eleven inches and three quarters we walked across dried grass and gritty sand desert ground before we once again set foot on road, this road so decayed it looked more like a piece of toilet paper falling apart in the toilet.

We walked on that part for twenty feet and one inch before I spotted something that made me stop.

Ten feet away were a pair of twin green signs, one of them had "Los Angeles" written on it and the other had "Primm" written on it each with arrows pointing in the directions of where those cities would be.

But that wasn't what caught my attention, at least not at first, it was what was underneath the signs.

It looked almost like a Pharaoh's sarcophagus but one made out of the rotten flesh of a corpse and it also exhibited signs of emaciation with visible ribs sticking out of its chest area.

Its face had sunken in cheeks and eyes that appeared to be grey and foggy like a severe case of cateracts.

I gaped before saying dumbly "Wow, and I thought nothing could be uglier then a Taxxon"

Six spoke "Be careful Tobias that's a Feral Ghoul it's highly radioactive and it-"

"Raaaaarrrgh!" The sarcophagus yet corpse like beast roared at me and began crawling towards me with a series of tentacles that resembled mutilated octopus tentacles.

Immediately I un digitized one of my new weapons (That I got from Chet just this morning) the LAER, it looked like a combination between a 15th century musket and a Sci fi gun from 1960's Dr who.

I aimed at the approaching monster's head and pulled the trigger.

*BOOOUUUM* A bolt of blue energy exited out of the rifle and entered the sarcophagus monster's right eye.

*Spppllaaat!* The entire right side of its head erupted like a science fair volcano, except it was blood and brains that was erupting instead of fake lava.

*Gurgle guuurgle* went the monster now missing half its head as it landed flat on it's back.

I turned to Six who out of the three of us, was the expert on this world "What the hell was that thing I just killed?" I asked with a tinge of worry, my voice raising slightly "That thing was way to ugly to be a monster girl"

Six stared at the corpse grimly "Poor thing" she said before she looked at me "It was a feral ghoul, ghouls are humans and monster girls that have been mutated by high exposure to radiation that leaves them both disfigured and sterilized.

Ghouls look like corpse versions of their original selves and monster girls who become ghouls lose their need to consume semen.

Most ghouls are intelligent but if a ghoul gets exposed to too much radiation, they cease higher brain functions and attack everything except their own kind.

What you just killed was a feral ghoul that by the looks of it, used to be an Iron maiden monster girl"

I paused 'I remember when the powder gangers accused me of being a mutant in my Hork Bajir Morph, the ghouls must be a type of mutant and Six mentioned an Iron Maiden themed monster girl, I wonder how that works?'

I then heard a trio of gurgles and growls that sounded like a cross between a screeching cat being given a bath against its will and a man gargling salt water.

Looking up I saw three more Feral ghouls making their way towards us arriving from behind the outcropping of boulders on the right, but these were of a different species then the first one I killed.

These had a humanoid body, albeit one that looked like a flayed mummified corpse, sitting on a throne made of wilted vines, pulled by a duo of tentacles composed of wilted roses.

Still armed with my LAER I pressed the V button on my PIP Boy to enter VATS.

Time froze and I aimed at the necks of the first two and at the heart of the third.

*BOOOUUUM BOOOUUUM BOOOUUUM!* The heads of the first two went flying off as their necks exploded, while the third gained a soccer ball sized hole in its torso.

As those three bodies collapsed I asked Six "Six what species of monster girls did those three used to be?"

She answered "Alra priestesses, a type of alraune"

It was then my PIP Boy beeped, very rapidly too.

And not just mine but Ax man and Six's PIP Boys too.

Checking my PIP Boy it said-

"Looks like being around those feral ghouls has given the three of us a high dose of radiation, we're all going to have to take some Radaway" said Six before she materialised three bulky needles filled with an orange semi liquid and using her tail passed two of them to me and Ax man.

I asked "How did you know that my PIP Boy said that I had a dangerously high amount of radiation exposure"

Six smiled "It's kinda obvious, all three of us were exposed to four Feral ghouls at the same time and all three of our PIP boys beeped at the same time" *prick hiiisss* She then injected herself with her needle and flinched "Ugh I can feel the stomach ache coming on already"

Ax man spoke "Does this medica-cay-shun-shun-un have any dangerous side effects that Tobias and I should be aware of?"

Six let out a groan "Aww Ax man, your playing with mouth sounds is like nails to my headache.

Yes, Radaway can cause headache, nausea, stomachaches and diarrhea.

But I assure you it's better then the alternative" she then let out a low belch "Oh I hope I don't throw up the Semen cola I just drank"

I chuckled "If you thought it tasted bad going down wait until it comes right back up, maybe this is karma for teasing me so mercilessly?" I said that in good faith of course, I didn't actually want Six to throw up.

Six crossed her eyes and stuck her tongue out at me for a brief moment "Screw you! Are you an idiot? You have to take the Radaway injection too!"

I knew Six was also being mean in good faith, but I flinched as I looked at the bulky needle loaded up with the thick semi liquid "Thanks for reminding me" I grumbled loosing my joking mood.

I looked at Ax preparing to tell him that we'll inject our needles together on the count of three.

Only to see that he had already done his "Seriously Ax man how did you inject yourself so quickly and easily? Like just HOW?!" I asked stunned.

Ax man replied "I am an Andalite-da-da-da-lite warrior, enlisting in the Andalite military requires that we receive-seeve-seevuh-vuh countless vaccines for diseases from planets-anets-anetsss across the galaxy.

To be afraid of needles after serving in the andalite military would be illogical"

I sighed "Should've known from our experience with The Nartec, anyways I'll go on the count of three.

One two three"

I injected myself in the left bicep, and let out a curse.

MY GOD! It felt like ice cold jello was being pumped inside my arm through a nail that just punctured it!

And as soon as I pulled the needle out came my stomach doing a somersault and my head began spinning.

Letting out a groan, I said "Okay guys I think we should find somewhere to break away from these corpses and let the drugs run their course"

Six groaned "Aye aye"

Ax man collapsed onto his stomach "I *belch* concur, this drug is making balancing in my human morph even more difficult!"

LATER AFTER WE HAD A BREAK TO RECOVER FROM THE RADAWAY'S SIDE EFFECTS.

Ax man and I had walked and in Six's case slithered past a couple guardrails that were more rust then rail, as well as past a 1950's ish car missing its doors and looking like a marshmallow roasted over a campfire.

We just came across a flagpole with a flag that resembled my home state's flag but with a two headed bear when a man called out to us

"Hey where the hell do you three think you're going? Primm is off limits!"

The man was caucasian and wore bulky square glasses and a khaki thick military uniform which made me wonder how he hasn't died of Heatstroke out here yet with that uniform on.

Six whispered into my ear "He must be NCR, be nice to him Tobias, he's not Legion so there's no need to morph that bladed psycho on him"

I nodded at Six and whispered back "He's still kinda rude though" before I addressed the man "Hello sir! I am Tobias Shamtul! This is my Uncle Phillip Shamtul and the Earthworm girl is my girlfriend Six.

What's going on in Primm?"

The man crossed his arms over his chest "Some escaped monster girl convicts from our prison have taken over the town.

All the men in Primm are either sex slaves, dead, or in hiding"

I felt my jaw clench, my teeth gritting against each other as both my fists clenched to the point my palms bruised.

I vaguely heard my uncle cry out "Just as savage as the yeerks" beside me.

Before Six shouted "Why the hell aren't you and the NCR soldiers stationed here doing anything about it then? I have it on good authority from a kind hearted Chimera chariot that the NCR protects boys and men from evil monster girls!

Why aren't you doing your job?!"

The man shouted back "We want to okay?! But they don't fall under NCR jurisdiction and we're also low on Equipment and man power! We're outgunned and outmanned, if we tried to take them on now we'd just join Primm's men in sex slavery!"

Six recoiled and her lip trembled "It-it sounds like the situation- is there a way we can get you more equipment and men?"

The man took a few breaths and let them out "I apologize for shouting, I too hate my helplessness to help the men of Primm.

To answer your question, talk to Lieutenant Hayes.

He's in a tent down the road, just stay on the west side of the overpass if you don't want to get shot and if you don't want your boyfriend to be raped"

I gave a glance at Six, I saw her brows furrowed and she growled "Any one of those handsy whores try to rape my boyfriend I'm going to give them a free hysterectomy!"

The man smiled as he looked at me "Tobias was it? You scored a good one! Hold on to her alright? She's a keeper!" Before he winked at me.

Seeing the man's more friendly side I waved and smiled "Thanks I will!"

With that the three of us went around the next rusted guardrail and walked (again in Six's case slithered) on a fifteen foot patch of crumbled cookie like road, over a patch of dead soil, past a rusty barrel with a fire in it and a rusty bus that was missing its back half.

Six slithered in front of me and Ax man the moment we were past the rusted half bus "Tobias, Ax Man, you heard the NCR soldier.

The Situation in Primm is pretty grim right now for men, it's a No Man's land.

I wouldn't blame you two for wanting to turn back and leave me to go in there alone.

No one wants to be raped, especially to death"

I spoke "Six, I faced the horrors of The Yeerk war.

Those included a murderous psychopath like Visser 3 the only Andalite to be infested by a Yeerk and Taylor the bitch who tortured me physically and psycologically.

I've faced cannibalistic giant centipedes to man children who've wiped out civilizations.

I'm not going to run scared from some sex obsessed hoes"

Six's eyes widened and she let out a small gasp "You were tortured?! Did you kill that bitch? Tell me!"

I shook my head "I'll tell you about it later, for now we have a mission to complete"

Six nodded "Yeah, yeah you're right" before she turned to my uncle "Ax Man what about you?"

My uncle replied "I have faced-aced-aced-sudduh the abomination in tail blade-ail ail blade combat.

Compared to him, primitive-primi-mi-mi-mi-tive-tivuh minded low lives are an insignificant threat.

If I were to back down now, I would be an Andalite warrior unworthy-orthy-thee-ee of the title of Prince"

I smiled "See Six? We're with you all the way"

Six returned my smile "You boys are awesome! Let's go!"

SHORT TIMESKIP!

After a short walk we arrived in a public square consisting of a three story red brick building that had only one wall still standing, a rusted blue mail drop off box, A green wooden park table, a barrel with a fire going on inside and two pinkish red plastic tents.

I crossed my arms over my chest "Wow, this world is feeling more and more like Mad Max"

Six tilted her head ('She looked so cute and sexy doing that!' I thought) "Who's Mad Max? Is he one of your enemies?"

I chuckled at the misunderstanding "I'll explain later"

Six made a shrugging gesture "There is still so much about your world I don't know Tobias"

Ax man then spoke "According-or-or-ding to the NCR soldier from earlier, his commanding-an-anuuh ding officer is in one of these tents"

"Let's go in this one" said Six pointing to the one right behind the barrel with the lit fire.

The three of us entered the first tent and upon entering saw a torchlit room with a grimy table and chair, grimy shelves and two caucasian men (both in dark green uniforms, though one was wearing a beret while the other wore a hat like the ranger from Yogi Bear) in it.

The men turned to face us upon entering with the one in the beret addressing us "An Earthworm girl and two human men, state your names and business"

Six spoke "My name is Six, this is my boyfriend Tobias Shamtul and this is his uncle Phillip Shamtul.

First I was wanting to ask, what is the NCR doing out here if you're not protecting Primm?

Also are you Lieutenant Hayes?"

The man in the beret gave a salute "That I am Miss, Lieutenant Hayes Of The New California Republic Army; 5th battalion first company.

And we were sent here to hold back the tide of monster girl convicts that escaped from our prison"

He dropped his salute, his shoulders slumping as he frowned and sighed "Unfortunately as you can tell, we haven't been able to do the job we really wish we could do"

Six spoke again " Yeah we encountered a soldier earlier who said something about you guys being outmanned and outgunned"

Lieutenant Hayes rolled his eyes "Greatest Understatement of the century, the monster girl convicts are better organized and equipped then our intel suggested

I'm trying to get some reinforcements, but…

Shit the bureaucracy alone bears half the blame for what the men in Primm are going through"

I spoke up "Lieutenant Hayes, do you have any intel we could use against The Monster Girl Convicts?"

The Lieutenant shook his head "I apologize young man but not much, they've taken to calling themselves Powder Gangers mostly because they've taken to using the explosives meant to eliminate boulders as weapons.

They got organized way way faster then intel initially suggested, on the bright side the group in Primm is a split off from the main force so if and when we do take them on we don't have to worry about back up"

I clenched my fist "Powder gangers, like Josephine Cobb"

Lieutenant Hayes tilted his head "How do you know Josephine Cobb? Did she- did she rape you or someone you care for son?" His voice became choked with remorse, no doubt feeling responsible for Josephine Cobb's escape.

I shook my head and gave a smile "No no sir, I killed the bitch, cut her up and stuffed her full of dynamite"

Lieutenant Hayes' eyes widened "Really? But you're just a kid! So many of our strongest soldiers fell to her!"

Six spoke as she wrapped her tail around my waist "You'll find my boyfriend is no ordinary teenager! He's one of the toughest boys you'll ever meet!"

The Lieutenant's eyes darted between me and Six a couple times before he nodded "Alright, I think I can put my trust in you Tobias.

We of the NCR know Primm is a great strategic point and we aren't blind to the suffering of its residents.

However we're barely holding our own against the Powder gangers, we don't have the guns or the personnel needed to carry out this mission to our fullest.

If we had just one more squad we could install a sheriff and still continue our duties of protecting the interstate.

I want the NCR to include Primm and its citizens in its protection detail just as much as you, but to do that we need more bodies.

Talk to Knight at Mojave outpost, he should be able to help"

Six bowed her head "Thank you Sir for your help!"

Ax Man nodded "We'll do our-our-er-er best to return-urn-urn the favor as you humans-mans-ans say" (The Lieutenant raised a brow at that)

I nodded "Thanks for your help"

With that the three of us exitted the tent, and just as soon as we did my uncle said "Wait we don't know-oh-oh-oh I love how my human lips move when I say OH! Where Mojave outpost is!"

Six replied "That's no biggie! We all have a built in map on our PIP Boys, Tobias bring up your PIP Boys map"

Lifting up my arm I messed with the buttons on my gold and diamond PIP Boy until…

"Yup! I have a map on here! Thank you Six!"

Six planted a kiss on my cheek *SMOOCH* "You're welcome cutie, now just search for Mojave Outpost on it and we'll follow your PIP Boy's directions"

TIMESKIP!

After an hour long trek we came across a stretch of road filled with rusted abandoned cars and RV's that looked like they came straight out of the fifties.

The stretch of road was right next to a canyon and on its left side were trees as short as me which were losing their leaves.

I heard my uncle let loose shaky breaths "Tobias" *deep breaths* "How much-How much farther is Mojave Outpost? I don't- I don't think I can walk much further in this accursed human morph! Human legs are so much inferior compared to Andalite legs!"

Looking to my left two feet ten inches behind me I saw my uncle who was wet as a dog that had just taken a bath, he was THAT sweaty.

Deciding to check on Six I looked to my right behind me and saw that she was even slimier then usual, upon noticing me glancing at her she nodded "I concur with Ax Man Tobias, I don't wanna dry out in this desert"

I checked my PIP Boy and smiled "Well you're both in luck because Mojave Outpost is just straight ahead!"

Six smiled "Oh yes! I can see it now!"

Indeed thirty feet in front of us was a squat eggshell colored chipped paint building surrounded by a barbwire fence that would be right at home on a prison yard and in front of that was a barricade made of sand bags in front of which were patrolling NCR soldiers.

With renewed vigor the three of us dashed towards the outposted, past the fence and through the sandbags and once inside we went past a barrel fire and entered a door that was in between another sandbag barricade.

We then found ourselves inside a room that had a mold colored ceiling that looked like it had been eaten by termites, peeled paint walls, and cracked tile floors that looked like they hadn't been mopped in years, maybe decades.

' Which considering the state of this world may not be entirely inaccurate' I surmised.

There was a large desk in the room, of which stood behind a bald caucasian man wearing brown kevlar armor and a brown beret hat.

He greeted us "Greetings I am Major Knight.

You three, are you Caravan, Citizen, Pilgrim or…"

I spoke "Well we're aiming to become citizens and Six here is a courier"

He nodded "That's good enough for the logbook, I hope you earn your NCR citizenship, we are the most powerful nation in the Wasteland.

Anyways if you're looking for the commanding officer he's in the back, though if you speak with him keep it short, he's got a lot on his plate.

Also if you need any gear checked we can get you up and running again.

Once you fill out the work orders and sign for the parts of course."

I sighed as I thought 'Paperwork exists in every universe I guess' before voicing aloud "I would like to talk to you about Primm"

Major Knight tilted his head "Primm? Hayes unit is stationed up there, we're having problems with some of the NCRCF convicts.

What can I help you with?"

I replied "Hayes unit is undermanned and they're requesting reinforcements.

They don't have enough men or equipment to take on the powder gangers and to protect Primm.

As one of their soldiers said, if they tried to help Primm now they would only join Primm's men in sex slavery"

Major Knight showed a visible reaction in that he averted eye contact and his hands clenched and unclenched multiple times as if he was having a seizure as he bit his lower lip.

"I really want to help, but we have orders from the west to maintain a minimum headcount at the outpost"

Six then gently pushed me to the side "Major Knight was it? You send those reinforcements and when those bastards at the west get all pissy give them this excuse- having Primm and the trade route under NCR control WILL help the west"

Major Knight gasped…

Then smiled "You're a genius Earthworm girl, what's your name?"

Six smiled "The name's Six- Courier Six."

Before she wrapped her tail around me and pulled me into a hug where I was leaning on her breasts "And this is my cute boyfriend Tobias"

Major Knight raised his fist in the air "Six, Tobias thank you! Primm and Hayes can now receive the help they need.

I'll radio for a unit to head up to Primm and offer additional support!"

After that the three of us stepped out of the outpost and I gave Six a smile "Wow Six thank you, you definitely saved every man in Primm's bacon there."

I leaned my head on Six's shoulder "You should know, I find brainy girls very attractive, especially when their Breast size matches their IQ"

Six giggled "Just kiss me already Tobias"

I wrapped my arms around her neck and we entered into a kiss *Smooch smooch smack*

I vaguely heard my uncle comment "So monster-ster-ster girls do the kissing-ing thing too, interesting"

Six and I parted and she gave me a peck on the cheek "You're a hell of a good kisser Tobias, mainly because I can dominate you during our kisses"

I blushed "Six" I muttered embarrassed.

Six laughed "Cute little shybean you are

Anyways back to Primm"

TIMESKIP.

It was another lengthy and sweaty hike but we found ourselves back in front of Lieutenant Hayes' tent.

Which we entered and were greeted by the man.

"Oh here they are! The heroes of the hour! Tobias, Six and Phillip! I just got word we'll be getting reinforcements in two hours"

Six spoke "You're welcome sir, in the meantime may we explore Primm? Maybe take care of a few of those Powder gangers for you?"

The Lieutenant nodded "If you're confident in your ability to protect your boyfriend, oh hell your boyfriend killed Josephine cobb! All three of you should be fine.

Give those sick fucks hell for us, troopers!"

Six used her tail to pull both Ax Man and me in for a hug and Six and I both cried out at the same time ""Yes sir they won't know what hit them!""

Ax Man spoke "I swear on my honor as A prince that I won't let those criminals go unpunished-unished-unished-ished"

Lieutenant Hayes looked at Ax man with a raised brow but shrugged his shoulders a moment later.

I facepalmed and said "That's just my uncle being my uncle sir"

And with that we left.

TIMESKIP!

We were now in Primm, we were next to a paint chipped three story building that had a rusty dumpster on its side, in front of it was a chipped paint hotel that had a sign in the shape of a buffalo.

Six spoke in a hushed voice "HIDE! Candy Witches!" As she wrapped her Earthworm body around both Ax Man and I's necks and dragged us behind the dumpster.

I took a peek from behind the dumpster and saw what Six was talking about.

"They must be identical twins and albinos, judging by their chalk white skin" I analyzed.

Both of them looked like they were wearing dresses made out of giant white cupcakes and coated in white jellybeans, they also had a giant pair of white lips on the right side of their lower body.

Their humanoid upper halves possessed mohawks and marijauna themed eyebrow piercings.

Ax man commented "I wonder-won-won-wonder do these candy witches taste like vanilla-va-va-nilla icing?"

Six sweatdropped "Uh- I think eating them would be unethical Ax Man, even if they are rapists"

I undigitized my LAER "I got this, those rapists are going to be roadkill in five seconds and no Ax Man you may not eat their corpses"

I activated VATS and zoomed in on both Candy Witches heads which were labeled 91% and 87% respectively.

I pulled the trigger *Booouum booouum!* and two beams of blue energy shot out and split the albino candy witch twin's heads like watermelons.

"What the fuck?!"

"What in the name of the dark goddess?!"

Cried out two new monster girls who had just exited the hotel.

Strangely these monster girls didn't have a human body or boobs at all, their body was that of a giant green spider with a human woman's face.

I shuddered "Great, another Taxxon like monster girl.

Six what are these?"

Six narrowed her eyes "Those are Oogumo, which are known for sucking a man dry, you and Ax Man will be in deep trouble if those aren't taken care of- and they're coming this way!"

Ax Man in response undigitized his own LAER "Then allow me to take care of them as you humans would say, I will fulfill my duty as an Andalite warrior"

Ax Man aimed and pulled the trigger *Booouum booouum*

Both of the "oogumos* as Six called them dropped dead with their heads split open like an overcooked pea.

Six complimented "Nice shooting Ax Man"

My Uncle replied "I thank you Six, firing-ring-ring a LAER is not to dissimilar-simi-simi-lar-lar to firing a shredder or Dracon Beam"

I spoke "I think we should lay siege to that hotel next, there are probably more powder gangers in there and most likely some captured men they're using as sex slaves"

Six undigitized her Q 35 matter modulator "Yes, let's do it.

The sooner those poor captives are rescued, the sooner they can get professional help"

TIMESKIP WE SWITCH TO SIX'S POV!

I took the lead, as I put it "Tobias, Ax Man, I want the first thing those rapist scum to see is one of their own- a fellow monster girl.

That'll hopefully get them to lower their guard and then we can work together to take them down!"

And so with me leading the way we entered The Bison Steve Hotel.

The inside of the hotel was puke green with a chipped paint ceiling that looked like it had been eaten away by Rad Roaches, the lobby was BARELY lit by two rusty tungsten lamps.

And right in the lobby was a Tarantula Girl, which if you're from Tobias' universe and you are unfamiliar with us monster girls.

A Tarantula Girl is a type of Monster girl who had the upper half of a human woman with four additional spider eyes and a tarantula lower half.

She wore an orange fedora over her sea green short pigtail hair and wore a brown burlap shirt.

She spotted me and gave a smile and a wave "Welcome back! I see you've brought two new handsome boys to add to our menu! Just put them in with the deputy and we can have an orgy with them!"

I felt my lips curl in disgust 'This bitch thinks I'm one of them, that I'm selling my boyfriend and my friend into sexual slavery, that I'm a rapist like her.

The plan worked…

Yet I feel so dirty'

I still had my Q 35 matter modulator clutched in my tail's vagina and I whipped my weapon forward "Guess again bitch!"

The Tarantula girl only had a moment for her eyes to widen before I contracted my vagina muscles to pull the trigger *puum!* a blast of green plasma went sailing forward and hit the Tarantula girl right in her face.

She melted into green goo from the head down.

Ax man spoke "Thank you- ank ank you for that Six, that arachnid type monster girl-irl irluh's gaze made me uncomfortable"

I nodded "I can definitely understand why" before I turned my gaze to the right "Let's loot this place for caps"

I slithered over to a desk that was ten feet away on the right and slithered behind it, using my earthworm lower body, I tried to open the door behind the desk.

"Its locked" I grunted before turning to the terminal on the desk, a box like rusted piece of tech "Ok this terminal should unlock it" I digitized my Q 35 matter modulator and tapped the keys thus bringing up a black screen with dark green font.

"Aaaand disengage" *click* the door in front of me unlocked.

I opened it and slithered inside and came back out a moment later carrying a bag of caps.

"Tobias, Ax man I got enough caps to split it evenly between us fifteen each!"

Tobias shrugged "Well money is always valuable in a dangerous world"

I digitized the sack before speaking again "I also found a maintenance key for this hotel"

Ax Man spoke in his weird yet lovable way "That-th-th-that-tuh could prove useful"

With that we walked or in my case slithered past the lobby, ( and past the melted remains of the Tarantula girl) into the nearby hallway.

Half a dozen pieces of chipped puke green paint fell on me from the ceiling as we went past a trio of chairs that looked like they had been chewed on by both termites and a Gecko before taking a right.

I then heard a feminine voice cry out "Intruders! These men are-" before I saw Ax Man un-digitize his 40mm grenade launcher and launch a grenade at another two oogumo.

*BOOM!* The two oogumo both had afros and their limbs and eyeballs were scattered across the corridor upon being hit by the grenade.

A cobra lamia of the same ethnicity as me ( African American) with half strawberry blonde half indigo hair that was done in a twin buns style lunged at Ax man, her fangs barred "You bastard! You impudent man know your-"

*Brrr brrr brrrrr* Tobias intervened, un-digitizing his 10mm submachine gun and going full auto on the Cobra lamia, who did dances as over two dozen bullets slammed into her.

When the Cobra Lamia slumped dead in a bloody heap, Ax man turned to Tobias and said "Thank you-yeeew dear nephew-yew-yew"

Tobias who was reloading his weapon gave a smile that made both my hearts flutter ' His smile shines like the sun'

"Don't mention it Ax Man, we're Shorms so we'll always come to each others defense"

I smiled and said "So I guess a Shorm is the Andalite equivalent of best friend or something similar?"

Ax Man turned to me and nodded "Correct-er-er-ect, A Shorm is someone-um-won you would trust to hold their tailblade-bladuh against your throat.

Though I am curious if that applies-plizuh with me no longer-ger-ger having a tailblade"

I pulled both my boyfriend and future uncle into a sideways hug with my tail "This might sound cheesy but it's what inside that counts"

My boyfriend let out a cute chuckle "Yeah that is cheesy, like something Jake would say before a mission to raise our spirits.

Anyways let's continue exploring"

The three of us walked/ slithered seventeen feet further down the hallway before we came upon a derelict abandoned room on the left side.

Tobias peeked inside and announced "I see a moldy chipped paint white desk and two cash registers, this place was probably once a gift shop"

I slithered in past him "Which means there's probably something valuable to loot, I'll make this quick baby I promise"

True enough, it looked like a gift shop overcome by time, it's desk was a white covered in stains of 'I don't wanna know' and its pair of cash registers were rusted.

The walls had small holes in them out of which crawled bugs and there was garbage on the floor.

I spotted what I was looking for soon enough, a safe.

I un-digitized a pin and screwdriver to dig into the lock of the safe under the desk.

The lock made a few scraping and clunking sounds of protest before it gave a click of defeat and the safe opened.

Upon opening the safe I set down the screwdriver and pin, un-digitized my sack of caps and scooped up the seven caps and two Pre War dollar bills inside.

After digitizing my newly acquired money both pre war and post war, I acquired a knife and some 10mm ammo from the box.

Followed by two vials of Psycho.

'Tobias and Ax Man need these more then I do, Human males need all the boost they can get when fighting monster girls.' I thought as I decided to give the Psycho to them.

Slithering out of the gift shop, I presented a vial of Psycho to both Tobias and Ax man.

"Here baby, you and your weirdo uncle should each take a vial of Psycho, it could come in handy if you end up between a rock and a hard place due to some harlot monster girl" I spoke holding out the two vials via my tail.

While Ax Man accepted his vial quickly and looked over it with curiosity, turning the vial upside down and on its side to look at it from all angles- "Strange-ange-juh this doesn't look like any human-hew-hew-min candy I've seen before"

I stifled a laugh but before I could tell the alien centaur that this wasn't candy Tobias did "Ax Man this isn't candy" before my boyfriend focused his gaze on me "This is some kind of steroid isn't it? Like the Venom that Bane uses in the Batman comics?"

I swallowed the "Huh?" That tried to break out of my mouth and instead said "I have no knowledge of a comic book character named Bane.

But I do know a comic book character named Grognak The Barbarian.

Anyways Psycho is a drug that increases damage resistance while dampening higher brain functions.

I say you two as Humans will need it more then me if you get pinned by a monster girl or two"

Tobias gave me a smile "That's a nice thought Six and I appreciate the concern but Ax and I can always fall back on our morphing if things get real bad"

I grunted "Take the vials Alice Damn it…

I mean what if you don't have time to morph before a monster girl rips your clothes off and starts forcing herself on you?"

Ax Man spoke "It would be logical To-by-by-iss to have a back-buh-buh I love how my lips collide when I say the buh sound! Back up plan in case our morphing is too slow."

Tobias nodded "Ok Ax Man, Six I'll stash the Psycho in my Pimpboy three billion, thank you for looking out for me"

*Smooch* My cheek burst like it got shocked with static electricity when Tobias planted a kiss on it.

I smiled "I'll always look out for my sweet boy from another reality"

SHORT TIME SKIP!

My boyfriend, his uncle and I were in the hallway just outside the Hotel's kitchen, we could hear the sounds of slapping flesh, liquids getting slurped and faces getting sucked.

My boyfriend made a face "That must be where the powder gangers are holding the men.

Bleck! Talk about Health code violation!"

I interjected "For us monster girls a kitchen is the perfect place to hold sex slaves since their semen is what we feed off of"

It was then a series of female voices came from the kitchen "Grace, none of the patrols have reported in! Get your squishy blue ass out there and check the perimeter! Those NCR heretics might have grown a pair!"

Another feminine voice called out "As soon as I'm done squeezing the love juice out of this man slut!"

There were a few more sounds of slipping and slapping followed by a "YEEESS! FEED ME FEED ME FEEEED ME!"

I grimaced and Tobias looked nauseous as we overheard a man being raped.

Ax Man looked… intrigued?

It was then the kitchen doors opened and a semen covered monster girl with no legs but a series of jellyfish tentacles replacing her arms and legs slithered out.

She had blue bioluminescent skin and oversized teeth.

She had a Jellyfish's comb on her back.

Tobias wasted no time, undigitizing his LAER and firing a laser *booouuum!*

The blue energy blast hit the Jellyfish girl square in the forehead.

"Ahh fucking skull hurts! You insolent man whore you'll be begging for sex by the time I'm-"

Tobias didn't let her finish and fired off another laser from his LAER striking her on her forehead again, to which she let out a groan and collapsed in a heap of tentacles.

*Booouuum* Tobias' third shot which landed again on her forehead finished her off.

WE ONCE AGAIN SWITCH TO AXIMILI'S POV!

I am Aximili Esgarrouth Isthill and I wanted to clarify why I looked intrigued while my shorm and his mate looked disgusted.

While I do find the concept of forced mating a repulsive vile act that only a creature as vile as the Yeerks would commit, I couldn't help but be intrigued upon hearing the sounds as I realized that was how monster girls naturally got their food and I felt the urge to morph a monster girl if only to understand their biology more intimately.

My decision to ask Six for permission to morph her was interrupted by the arrival of a monster girl who resembled a Terran Jellyfish albeit with a condition known as Macrodontia.

My nephew took care of that monster girl, and I found myself impressed by it's durability, taking three shots from a high powered energy weapon to kill it.

"You mon-on-on-ster girls are a fascinating-assi-sih-nating-ting race, I am glad the Yeerks never had access to you.

They would have made you their new shock troops"

Six raised a brow but before she could reply a voice that sounded like a feminine human shouted "That was weapons fire! Denzelina get your 10mm we're-"

Tobias ran forward "Follow me, let's do it"

The three of us quickly caught up to Tobias as he kicked in the kitchen's paint chipped and rusted steel blue door.

And the three of us entered a room that had fading eggshell tiles with chunks of said tile missing.

The room was lit by a single circular lamp that glowed like one of my favorite Earth foods, mustard.

At the back of the room were ten human men lacking their artificial skin with their hands restricted behind their back by primitive earth rope.

*Booouuum" I heard Tobias fire his LAER and I turned to the source of the sound to see his target, a dark skinned child like monster girl who possessed silver blonde hair and three wet thick tongues coming out of the back of her head, as well as a supernumerary amount of fingers.

I turned just in time to witness her heart explode out the back of her chest as the blue laser round erupted inside her unclothed chest cavity.

"Well well well a couple of young stupid kids! I'll gladly add you two to my collection of sex slaves for killing my minions!" The vile declaration drew my attention towards a plant-like monster girl, one who had a green pitcher-like lower body and green skin on her human upper half, her mammary glands being covered by leaves.

She aimed a shotgun at Tobias, no doubt seeing him as the immediate threat.

In response I undigitized my Q 35 matter modulator *pew pew* and fired twice.

"AAAH you little bastard! I'm going to make you-"

I didn't see the logic in allowing her to finish her threat and so I fired four more times *pew pew pew pew*

Covered in burns and holes the pitcher plant monster girl let out a shriek of "Fuuuuck you heretic!" Before collapsing onto her side, throwing up green blood and letting out a gurgle before becoming still.

I could feel my lone human heart beating with the force and speed of an Andalite War prince running into battle.

' My human morph appears to have been agitated by this encounter.

As if the monster girls are an Apex predator that my human morph is afraid of'

It was then I was startled by a cry as mournful and full of pain as a captive in the Yeerk pool.

"NOOO! NO NO NOOOOOOO!"

My inferior human eyes landed on a bound and naked human male of Asian heritage, tears streamed down his face while his amber eyes became bloodshot.

Tobias digitized his LAER and held his hands up in a manner which I recognized as a Human gesture for surrender.

"Hey it's ok, it's ok.

We're not going to hurt you, quite the opposite- we came to help"

The Asian human male to my surprise expelled saliva from his mouth and onto Tobias' shirt.

' Clenched teeth, red ears? I believe those are signs of human anger'

"You killed our beautiful masters! Masters who took us in and gave us a comfortable easy life! We didn't need saving, we were ha-"

Another human male this one being of the same variety as my friend Cassie, sent out his unbound left leg in a powerful motion of kinetic energy, which collided into the first human's face.

"Shut up shut up you dumbass!" Said the darker skinned human before he turned his attention towards Tobias.

"I am very sorry for Denki Isaac's behavior, but please don't shoot him.

He was one of the first men captured and after a while his mind just…

Broke.

I guess it was the only way he could cope with his new reality.

But I am very grateful for you three saving us.

Our "esteemed" deputy was useless"

The dark skinned human's thick eyebrows furrowed as he turned his head to face another naked human male, this one being of Caucasian ethnicity and with hair the same color as Tobias'.

This human was shivering as if the room was much colder then it actually was, his mouth opened and closed a few times yet no mouth sounds came out.

When he started talking, even an Andalite who was a novice at humans could tell he had been broken.

"Please…

Pl-pl-pl-pl-please.

NO MORE! I told you all I know about Primm, why are you still violating my body?!

Haven't you bitches done enough when you killed my s-s-sister"

His eyes clenched shut as he made choking and gasping sounds.

I felt my hands become clenched, a human gesture I had picked up after spending so much time around them.

I spoke "Forced mating, what a sick act to do" . My disgust for the powder gangers overrode my desire to play with my human mouth.

I turned to face my nephew and see his reaction.

Tobias was gritting his teeth, his human eyes somehow gaining the fierceness of his natural hawk form due to his anger.

When Tobias spoke his voice was hard "I'm glad we killed those bitches"

He then without looking at her, addressed Six "Six, do you think these guys will be able to find therapy in this post apocalyptic-

I mean from the NCR"

Six's dark face was hard, her jaw clenched, eyes burning; she exhaled and said "The NCR will most likely take care of them, if they're like any other well off faction they probably have a program to help men abused by monster girls"

Tobias nodded "Good" before taking an audible breath "Good, let's cut these men free with the exception of The guy with Stockholm syndrome, it might be best to leave him restrained for now"

TIMESKIP!

TOBIAS' POV.

Hey it's me Tobias, I'm now placing another entry in the journal.

I had told Six that it was best that we leave the man with Stockholm syndrome…

Denki Isaac I think his name was? Restrained just in case he tried to avenge his "Masters".

The other men we freed though and walked them to the NCR camp while Six questioned the only man in Primm who managed to avoid the powder gangers.

A guy named Johnson Nash, who turned out to be in charge of the town's Mojave express outpost, he was hiding out in the Vikki and Vance casino and had information about how Six ended up with the job that got her shot twice in the head.

Apparently she was the sixth of six courtiers hired for the job and was hired to replace one that quit, and it was suggested that the one that quit had some history with Six.

Anyways I asked Ax man to morph his Andalite form so he could carry Denki Isaac on his back.

Seeing Ax man in Andalite form walk into their camp gave the NCR guards a scare, but I calmed them down.

Gave the explanation that he was a friendly mutant, much to my uncle's indignation.

After we dropped off the men we reunited with Six and headed back to Goodsprings.

Which brings us to now.

Ax man, Six and I were in the attic of the prospector saloon, the light of a half moon shining through the thrice cracked window.

My uncle tossed and turned on the left bed, flipping from his back onto his stomach and onto his back again while switching from opening and closing one eye at a time.

I meanwhile sat in a hunched position on the right bed with Six laying down next to me.

' Poor Ax man, he must still not be used to sleeping in human form' I guessed as I watched my uncle struggle to get comfortable.

But that was the least of my worries.

I laid my chin in my hands as the pleading and begging of Primm's deputy played in my mind over and over again like a broken record, alongside the mournful cries of the mind broken Denki Isaac who had fallen in love with his tormentors.

The words of the two mind broken men that I couldn't save became distorted and began to mix together.

"You killed our beautiful masters!"

"No more!"

"We didn't need saving!"

"Why are you still violating my body?!"

I shakily inhaled and began tapping my foot restlessly.

' I wish I was the hawk, the hawk wouldn't care about the pain of the men, the hawk wouldn't know what rape even is'

"Tobias!" My freak out was cut off when I felt Six's slimy tail touch my shoulder.

I let out a gasp and flinched; quickly turning around to see the concern on Six's face "Oh it's you Six, I'm sorry for loosing it"

Six shook her head as she frowned sadly "Don't worry Tobias I'm not mad.

Please tell me what's wrong?

Are you upset about what we witnessed today in Primm?"

I slowly nodded "Yes…

Two of those men will probably never recover.

One is going to be grieving his rapists for the rest of his life while the other is going to be begging for mercy even though his tormentors are dead.

It's-

It's just not fair.

It reminds me too much of the Yeerks, of how the yeerks made their victims cry and beg.

But even the Yeerks didn't rape people.

And for the men who will recover, they'll still bear scars from their experience.

I just…

I just don't know if I should consider this a victory at all really"

Six's dark brown eyes became wet with concern "Oh Tobias, I can't imagine what horrors you went through, having to fight an alien invasion as a kid.

And now having to see the worst of my people as well…

Something tells me I wasn't the best at this stuff before the checkered bastard blew out my brains but…

If we don't consider this a victory then what is?

We killed a bunch of rapists thus punishing them for the atrocities they committed, while rescuing their victims.

Their victims will be treated by NCR certified therapists who will work their hardest to help those men recover.

And while it's true that a small fraction of them might never recover the majority of them WILL.

And we should be proud of accomplishing that.

In this radioactive shit hole of a world we must take whatever we can get, or we'll be driven mad with grief.

Do you understand me Tobias?"

Six's voice was as soothing as a violin mixed with a harp and full of as much compassion as Cassie when she took care of an injured animal at her parents clinic.

But overall it made sense, I felt my lips curl into a weak smile "Yes, Yes I understand.

Thank you Six, you're right, we did good today.

If I don't feel proud over this then what am I going to feel proud for?"

*Smooch* I planted a kiss on Six's cheek and she giggled "You're welcome Tobias, I'm always happy to help, let's get to bed.

We got to walk to Novac tomorrow"

I laid down next to my Earthworm girl girlfriend and wrapped my arms around her human neck as she wrapped her earthworm tail around my torso.

"Good night" I said.

With the sensation of Six's cold slimy tail surrounding me I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

AUTHORS NOTES!

SO WHAT DID YOU THINK?

NEXT CHAPTER SHOULD SHOW TOBIAS, AX AND SIX ENTERING NIPTON AND MAYBE ENCOUNTERING CAESAR'S LEGION FOR THE FIRST TIME!

LATER TATERS!
