Chapter 6- Joseph Martin
Once Joseph and Karl were outside of Freeside, Joseph had called Charles on his pip boy but he was in a firefight with the kings.
Charles said " You are outside of freeside?"
"Yup, I hear gunshots."
"Yeah I will give the order to make my men move soon. Fucking freeside people, I can't believe they actually tried to kill me, even if that lady just made a false story to have the kings ambush us
"Are you sure it was fakes Charles, I mean how many people have we killed to restore order?"
It is because do you think she just happened to talk to us when the kings were to ambush us, but either way we should have guided them with a gentler hand to compel them to not act in violence."
"Doesn't mean the story is false though either way we should have gotten the New Vegas citizens as law enforcement to strike fear in the kings and other criminal elements of Freeside."
"Perhaps Joseph but anyways this is where we go on with our duty, you know your task so we probably won't be talking through the pip-boys in the following days. To Victory For New Vegas and House."
And that was the last of Charles, for all the impulsiveness and rage Joseph embodied he felt like he would miss his boss for who knows how long.
With his conversation with Charles on the pip boy done he said his final goodbyes to Karl
Karl said "Well I guess this is goodbye Joseph a shame, we could have probably fixed this by changing the sentiments of the people of freeside portraying ourselves better. But all Vegas wanted to talk about was New Vegas's successes."
"There were a ton of mistakes to get where we are now Karl, whether it be due to House or Us it doesn't matter we have to move forward."
"Easier said than done but agreed."
And with that they parted ways.
Joseph realized he needed to go to the gun runners arsenal, since he was going to forlorn hope which was occupied by the Legion he needed more firepower to go through legion territory.
He currently only had a laser rifle, revolver and a combat knife and he was wearing light armor. This arsenal was good for enforcing new vegas where you weren't expecting too many enemies but in Legion territory where everybody is against you then the story is different.
Once he got the gun runners office in New Vegas and talked to the protectron cashier.
"Can I get a grenade launcher and anti-material rifle?"
"That will be 10,000 Caps."
Joseph thought that exorbitant. He only had 8,500 caps on him right now which he made from House. He thought about how this war had inflated the the cap to hell just like when the NCR had lost their gold mines by the brotherhood which led to the change of the NCR dollar to a fiat currency which will need to be inflated.
He talked to the manager who was outside of the shop with him
"Hey you, what's your name?"
"Issac, what do you want?"
"I would like a discount 50 percent for both items of a Anti-material Rifle and grenade launcher, i'm part of the EONV here's my badge."
The EONV badge was unique. It had the person's face on it but the main identifying factor was the stamp which showcased the lucky 38. This stamp was produced nowhere else besides the Casino which nobody had access to save the EONV and the securitrons had announced it everywhere to get the word out and everybody around New Vegas knew that fact.
"Hm I guess you are, if you are then tell House that we want more trade deals with him once the war is done then I will tell the leaders to give you 50 percent off."
"You have my word."
Joseph waited for a while and then once Issac came out of the shop he said
"Well I cut the price of the weapons to 50 percent so you only have to pay 5000 dollars, by the way what are you going to use these weapons for you already have a laser rifle?"
"I need all the firepower I can get, i'm going into legion territory
