Sorry for the late one. I see you all enjoyed yourselves with a bit of chatting XD
Urist's Journal, Day 4 of Operation: Evac, Power Substation
Well, from all these transmissions I've been getting suggesting me to talk to Tenpenny, I decided I would. When I walked up to his suite, the guard said I couldn't just go talk to Tenpenny, and that he didn't want to see the likes of me. He immediately got up from his chair and left me alone at the door. I looked onto the table nearby and saw the key.
I grabbed it and unlocked Tenpenny's suite, then walked in to find him in his bedroom. He said he was glad to see me, and that the guards never let anyone in. He talked to me about a lot of things, eventually bringing up the ghouls trying to get into his tower. He didn't want the zombies ruining the experience for everyone, so he made a deal with me. He'd give me a suite at the tower, if I exterminated the ghouls. I accepted, and my team stayed in the suite while I went with Sergeant RL-3 to find the ghouls.
They were at Warrington Station.
The place was filled with good loot, but also filled with Ferals. They were everywhere! Sergeant and I had no problem taking them out though. We found a few weird ones we've never seen before...
No arms!
There was a huge green one that walked really slowly but I couldn't get a good picture of it. Anyway, we continued down to the ghoul's hideout and found the leader of their group. He told me that the snobs at Tenpenny were selfish bigots that wouldn't let anyone live with them. They had their chance, and he was going to attack them soon enough. I couldn't convince him to leave Tenpenny alone, so I returned to the tower. I slept in my bed for a while and left the tower for a while to explore a bit. When I returned, the place was in chaos!
The horde of ghouls attacked and killed nearly everyone! Me and the Sergeant managed to take out the zombies, but all of the inhabitants we found were dead...I found the ghoul's leader nearby and beheaded the bastard.
I looked around for survivors in the residential suites. I only found one living person, someone one of the transmissions I got mentioned.
He told me he managed to fight off the ghouls. He was sad that it had to come to this. He said that ghouls usually don't act like this and aren't this...evil. I also found a radio in his room. I sent out a few messages:
"Who are you and where are you?"
"How are you tracing me?"
"To all of you that are sending me messages, why me?"
After I got my answers, I left the room in search of my companions. I used the elevator to get to the suites, and found myself face-to-face with a Glowing One!
The door to my suite was barricaded, and I saw tons of ghouls trying to break in. Instead of killing them all, I left them alone and went into Tenpenny's suite.
Tenpenny was dead, but that didn't stop me from running back to my suite and saving my companions. Hodgins was already dead when I got there, but the rest of them were okay. We fought our way back down to the first floor and looted what we could from the stores.
I left Tenpenny Tower behind me, and left to find somewhere else to use as shelter to get away from the Enclave searching for me. Hopefully, I'll find that place soon.
Well, back on the trial with Alyx, Sergeant and Zane. We left in a random direction, hoping to find something we hadn't seen before. We found a small store, which we looted. Not much, but I think it may have been a gun shop.
On the side of the road in a pool of radiation, there was a man with a large coat on. I went to chat with him when he started blathering nonsense, about the wastelander being reborn and being alive. When I tried to press him further, he fell down dead. I searched him to find a map to a place called Oasis. It was on the other side of the state, though.
We found a Power Substation and decided it was a suitable place to rest. I fiddled around with the power outside and got the lights working. When I went inside, I saw everyone staring at the wall. When I turned, I saw something gruesome.
(look away!)
Suddenly, Alyx shouted, "RAIDERS!" we all rushed outside to find the substation surrounded by four raiders. It was a fierced battle, we had equal numbers, but in the end we all survived and the raiders lie dead before us. Sergeant needed a few repairs, Alyx had a lot of cuts and a new scar, and Zane was bleeding heavily. After we bandaged up our wounds with help from RL-3's medical supplies we rested and fell soundly asleep inside the Station.
