AN: AGAIN. I OWN NOTHING. CHAPTER WILL BE LENGTHY AS SHIT SO GET READY KIDS. WE'RE DEEP IN THE CASTLE NOW.
It's been a few hours since our… "Meeting" with Adam. Honestly surprised how we both came to an agreement. Now of course we're forced to stay here forever until his bullshit curse is broken. But what I really wasn't prepared for were the reactions of my crew on his… Servants.
Raul started to pinch himself if this was real, Pyrrha nearly passed out, and ED-E nearly shot a laser into a talking clock for fuck sakes!
Just like the damn film, they were still turned into inanimate objects. With no connection to their families outside the castle walls. More I think about this tale, it just makes me want to kill the bimbo who started I-
"Are you alright there, Mister Six?" my inner ramblings stopped as I looked down to see who asked. It was Cogsworth, the same clock Ed-e Tried to kill when we first met.
"What is it, Cogs?" I groaned, "I'm trying to drink my sorrows away. Go find Lumiere and his.. Horny Feather Duster" I said, chugging down a bottle of scotch to get my mind off of witnessing a smooching session between the two. "How the fuck does that even work?"
"Well… It's one of your companions, Six." He said. "Pyrrha asked me to bring you to her and talk about things.. Privately." Cogsworth finished, shuddering at the last word he said.
"Oh lord… Alright fine. But if ya hear gunshots, then grab a bodybag." I said, hoping to god this doesn't become a sex fic. "Where's she at right now?"
Took me a few minutes but I found her on the balcony near the Ballroom. Her hands over the stone railing overlooking a dilapidated garden.
As I was approaching, Mr. New Vegas's voice echoes out of my Pip-boy to announce his next song. "Got a song for you, now. It's about a guy who's cold on the exterior, but deep down, you know he's a good man. And his name... is Johnny Guitar."
OST - Johnny Guitar.
"UGH. DAMNIT MR. NEW VEGAS!" I Shouted. "WHY!? DID YOU START FUCKING PLAYING THAT NO-"
"You don't need to shout, Six" Pyrrha said, interrupting my pleas to god as Peggy Lee's voice starts up.
"Sorry. Sorry." I apologized. "Back in our territory, I had to deal with too many merchants complaining on him overplaying thi-"
"That's what I'm not here for." She said, interrupting again.
"Six…" Pyrrha sighed "Have you.. Ever been in love?"
"In love?" I asked.
"Yes. Though I can't quite see it physically, your posture and attitude makes it sound like you lost someone dearly" She continued. "If you don't want to ta-"
"No. I will." I Interrupted. "I was in love once. Met her a long time ago and planned to marry her next time we met." I paused, grabbing a scotch and chugging it down before continuing this sob fest. "Next time we did.. I was the only one living." Pyrrha, to no one's surprise, gasps.
"Did she.."
"Yes. Some bastard cleaved her skill in with a blunt melee. Never could find the suspect either as I had to skip town when crime was getting worse by the day in it" I paused. "You started to sob up after saying some guy named.. John? Johnny?"
"Jaune." She answered. "I'm.. quite honestly surprised you heard that." She paused, trying to hold back her tears. "Christ, women are emotional slobs"
"But yes… I had a crush on him." she continued. "The last I saw of him was me sending him far from dangers o-"
"I get the point. But look, I'm just gonna say this once but let go of past stuff and focus on surviving." I replied bluntly. "War Never Changes in the Wasteland, and until we can find ourselves a way home we're gonna need to put any feelings of lost ones aside." I finished
"Gods, Six. You're an ass. But.. sigh I understand." Pyrrha Replied, then turned her head to face Me. "Also, thank you for saving me back there…"
"No problem. Now if you're trying to hit on me, don't. I'm well over your age limit." I said. Just as she was about to open her mouth, my pip-boy's companion bar finally picked up Graham. "About Damn Time…"
"What's wrong, Six?" Pyrrha asked.
"I have to kick sand towards the entrance." I shouted. "Keep an eye out for others! This'll Take a few minutes!" I finished as I tried to bee-line towards the entrance.
"WAIT! COME BA-and nevermind… sigh Guess i'll check out the library. Sure hope Ed-E didn't burn anything in there" Pyrrha said to herself as she headed back inside to check in on the little Eyebot.
While Six was having his conversation with Pyrrha, Two figures are seen walking a path towards their location.
Belle, one of the figures, was listening to one of Joshua's sermons, reciting the book he's holding as they neared their destination.
"The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You shall not enter here." Nevertheless David captured the stronghold of Zion…(that is, the city of David)." Graham finished, reciting Chronicles 11:5 as he closed his totem. "I do hope I'm not boring you Miss Belle."
"Nono! It's fine Monsieur… It's rare to see a religious monk like yourself so.. Violent around here." Belle stated.
Joshua chucked. "It's alright. As if the lord answered our prayers, your Papa's hideout is up ahead."
Sure enough, Joshua was right as he pointed towards the tall castle in front of them.
While Joshua wasn't used to tall castles, he wasn't in awe either. "This place, no matter how old the stones may be, will never beat the concrete tomb of Hoover Dam or Boulder City..."
He turned to see Belle having a different reaction, her face shunned in confusion and craving for exploration.
"What is this place, Joshu- PHILIPPE STOP!" She asked before Philippe started to act nervous.
After the horse calmed down, She noticed something behind the iron gate. Gasping. Belle Ran to grab it, while Joshua slowly walked around waiting for an ambush that'll never happen...
"What's wrong Belle?" he asked, drawing out his "Light Shining in Darkness."
"This.. This is Papa's hat!" she exclaimed! "C'MON! PAPA MUST BE INSIDE." Belle ran towards the door while the camera cut to Joshua following close behind. "I sense six is here as well… This will be interesting."
After running like a bat outta hell for a few minutes I hid myself behind a pillar to see who arrived. Switching to my F2 Rifle, I scoped in and saw two figures.
One was a woman, presumably in her early 20s. Same shade of brown hair like me, dressed in a pre-war peasant dress.
The other proved my theory right. It's Graham. With the girl who can break the curse. "Jesus Christ is this gonna be one of those fics where we're stuck in the film?" I muttered as the two split up to look around.
After sitting there for a moment and hostering my FR-F2, I turned around to catch up with the girl only to be greeted by the crazy Mormon's mummy face.
"Christ, Graham!" I whispered, hoping she didn't hear me "Ya scared the shit outta me. Where were you?" I asked.
"It's… A long story, but let's talk while we rendezvous with Be-"
"More importantly Six, where have you been?" a new voice started to pick up from my Pip-Boy. Interrupting our conversation as we started walking in her direction.
I looked down and was greeted with Mr. House.
"HOUSE? HOW THE HELL DID YOU FIND MY PIP-BOY?" I whispered again
"Oh don't be so daft, Junior!" Mr. House replied "I can hack into any of my Rob-Co Products and have them reset or programmed if lost for a certain amount of time. I must say though, connecting to this device was more of a hassle than the Chip." He paused.
"Where are you two as of right now." He asked the both of us. As I explained the situation, I saw Adam dragging Maurice away from the dungeon. Graham was about to ask if that was my boss before I cut him off and tried to hang up with Mr. House.
"I'll explain the rest later, House. Think you can handle being on hold for a couple minutes?" I replied
"Sure, Sure.. But don't daddle for too long again." House exclaimed as I hung him moments later, ol' Furry Deathclaw came back.
"SIX! I TOLD YOU TO BE ON GUARD AND YOU LET T-"
"HOLD IT. I'll explain this bluntly. This he-"
"I'll take it from here." Graham interrupted. "Six told me everything about your conundrum, and the curse that Witch brought hell upon this shrine turned tomb. At first I was gonna kill you.. Then I realized something."
He started deeply into Adam, both not moving an inch as Joshua continued. "I realized that you went through the same pain like I did all those years ago in the grand canyon.." He paused, thinking of the flames once more.
"Although I never turned into a beast, I was horrifically maimed. The only way I survived my fall was love. New Canaan's Love. God's Love. After crawling out and arriving at my home in New Canaan, they welcomed me back. As if the prodigal son had returned once more." He breathed again as he continued his tale.
"Unfortunately, they also met the fate of death after a band of tribals butchered them. I became acting warchief of the Dead Horses, a title I held until Six here… Appeased those flames as we both murdered the man responsible for his massacre on my tribe, New Canaan…" I couldn't help but sigh sadly, thinking of that bloody day...
Joshua, then turned to face me. "I've been traveling with Six ever since and slowly trusted him as if he and I are devoted brothers to our lord, Christ."
I chuckled. "Just wished others wouldn't think of degenerative thoughts when reading this like we're a couple.." Joshua couldn't help but let out a small laugh after that comment. "I would've smitten those naysayers down the same as well."
The burned man paused, then focused his glare back at Adam.
"Now you Adam, however, were caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. No way to connect to a family member, no mother or father to help guide and teach you, only your servants and nothing more tried until She ruined your entire life… Until now." Adam was about to growl at him before graham interrupted.
"I and the rest of Six's Crew, are willing to help you forget the trauma you went through for a decade. And as such, help you fall in love with the girl who bravely took her father's place."
Graham finally stopped his speech as we entered the dungeon, Adam more calmer than usual around this time in the fil-
"Master," Lumiere said, breaking the silence.
"WhAT?"
"Er.. Since ze girl is going to be with us for quite some time.." The candelabra continued "I was thinking that.. You might want to offer her a more comfortable room" Adam growled in anger as we continued to the cell. Could've sworn I heard him say something himself as we all piled in.
Belle, the girl Graham told me about, was crying after what transpired while the two of us were gone.
"Graham.. You.. YOU LEFT ME! I HAD TO GIVE UP PAPA" She croaked, crying between words She then eyed the Furry.
"You didn't let me say goodbye.. I will never see him again because of you! I couldn't…"
Just as she was about to continue whining, I coughed to get her attention.
At the same time, Mr. New Vegas chimed on my pip-boy playing another tune.. "God damnit, Mr. New Vegas"
OST- That's Life!
"Listen er.. Belle. I have it in good faith he'll be fine. After all.." I paused, waiting for Frank to say two words to end my sentence.
"THAT'S LIFE! (that's life~) THAT'S WHAT ALL THE PEOPLE SAY~" My Pip-Boy's speaker exclaimed as I was trying my hardest not to laugh at how perfectly timed this was.
Graham and Adam joined in with me as Belle, not understanding a damn thing about it, started to soothe and bop her head to Frank Sinatra's voice as we relocated her to a more comfortable room.
200 miles away from his hometown near the Steel City, Jim was recounting his.. Experience with the eye-robot to his co-workers.
"So Dozvolite mi da razjasnimo, a giant робот fell from Бог and počeo da.. agresivno juri svoje ljubimce?" One of the workers asked, with a broken english heavy serbian accent.
"Yes, Nikola." Jim replied "That ain't the worst part. It gets crazier."
"Crazier? How the hell can yer story get crazier, Jim." another co-worker replied reading his CT. 1000 Sidings guide asked, this time with a hint of west virginian-italian.
"The dog's can talk, Williamson" He answered. "Apparently Elizabeth knew about this too without telling me!"
"Jim! Добро је. Смири се јеботе. Претерујете!" Nikola stated again, this time in full Serbian.
"I know Nikola.. I'm just worried if any other random out worldly thing will happen next."
Before he could finish, another worker in blonde hair and substituting an ascot instead of a standard bandana walked up to the four.
"Oh.. Uh hey guys!" He said, sitting down with a coke. "Had to ditch a phantom case my wife and her friends were in, currently assigned to VL-2 that'll arrive in a couple mins" The man said, as he started to chug the soda.
"What's the issue with Jim?" He asked
"Jimmy Dear had a run in with a… 'Rab-Co' sentry bot and found out his pets can talk.." Williamson replied.
"WAIT. YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT JIM? DAMNIT WILLY, YOU WON." He exclaimed as he started handing a few dollars to Williamson
"FRED YOU AND WILLIAMSON PLACED BETS!?" Jim exclaimed
"Well.. yeah" He replied. "Also, have you seen one of the new roundhouse workers, fellas?"
"Nope/Jok/Ziperino" The three replied
"Some weak ass named Jaune fell into the tender of a Hippo being serviced just a few days prior, the kid crawled out not squished screaming on demon bears and high-schools!" Fred laughed
"...What." Jim asked.
"Yeah! He works cleaning some of the engines before being sent to their tasks now." Fred said.
"Gets even weirder when he starts to talk about this… 'Healing force' called an Aura to the Foreman and I swear he was so damn close to sending his ass to a Mental Ward."
Fred then looks back at Jim, who was pale as snow. "Uh.. Jim? You okay?"
"Fred. Where'd you say you're from again?" Jim asked sternly.
"Uh… Crystal Cove, Pennsylvania? Why? Are we in someone's schizophrenic fanfic?" He replied.
"I think so…" Jim Answered
The group goes silent, as Williamson asked the dreaded question "What tha hell is a 'Fanfi-"
"DON'T ASK/Не питај!" Jim, Fred, and Nikola screamed in Unison as the camera cuts to the three continuing to argue before their next assignment.
AN: JESUS CHRIST THIS WAS A BITCH TO WRITE.
Hope you've been enjoying this schizofest.
Trying to write all these characters in a Fallout/Disney Multi Fandom Hellspawn without sounding like dogshit takes work so prepare for a long break after this chapter kids.
House makes his first appearance as well! I Wrote him in because I would whole-heartedly believe he'll have some rob-co magic to hack into any of his products just to get in contact with him. Therefore, he's now stuck in his pip-boy during the journey. yay?
Joshua is still an angry Mormon. However in my F:NV he basically becomes like a brother figure to Six as they travel the Mojave. So if your curious on the conversations between the two in the Adam speech, that's why.
SPEAKING OF ADAM. I forgot to mention in an earlier post that the Beast's real name (unofficially given to Disney a few years after the film) is Adam. Yeah, it's stupid but it's better than calling him a Furry Deathclaw.
As for The Billy segment, well I wanted to do breaks from Billy in Jim's house to Jim and his co-workers talking about what's going on in that part of this shit hole universe. Therefore meet his gang!
Nikola (The Serbian with Broken English) and Williamson aren't OCs. They're tribute to my great grandad and uncle respectively as they're both the main reason why I'm a railroad maniac to this day. Is it fucked up to place em in a fic like this?
Yeah, but then again, people write multi character orgy smut on ANYTHING and gets the pass because of gooners, so i'll let this slide.
Fred However, is just Fred Jones from Scooby Doo. If the ascot wasn't an indication, the mystery line does.
Now I Had a long running joke of him in my head working for a railroad company while solving mysteries in his offtime so best to introduce it now than stay forever a funny vision. (Also if you're a Colaws Dimension 2 Member, you'll already know about this.)
To end this "mucho texto" AN, you're probably confused and think the Frank Sinatra joke is out of place but honestly, It's from my experience in my Load Order.
Anytime I play my New Vegas LO, Mr. New Vegas randomly plays a song at a certain time or event in-game like if it was scripted when it wasn't.
I've had "Once Upon a Dream" play fully from beginning to end while clearing out The Legion Ford, Cinderella's "So this is Love" when it's nearly 12am in game, or hell how about Woody's Roundup when a corpse does the infamous flying stick bug glitch in the air and Johnny Guitar during Raul's backstory?
I'VE MODDED NV SO MUCH PLAYS CERTAIN SONGS AT IMPORTANT PARTS WITHOUT ANY FNVEDIT CHANGES. IT WAS ALL PURE LUCK.
But yeah. Hope you enjoyed it. Hopefully I can get the next chapter out before Half Life 3 Finishes. Happy early New Year, Kids.
