He sighed... The breaches is getting more common... Originally when the ship that housed the government of the NCR fled in the night, he already had his sights on them, he tasked several spec ops to handle the issue... But turned out it was already a Chaos ship... And erasure is one thing needed to erase the taint...
He already informed the space colonies to plant the Emperor Trees in the planet to prevent them from taint....
He looked blandly at a mission he failed.
Attack the two opposing factions before the base game early and gather the skulls of the leading factions... Objective Defeat the Caesar legion: Complete. gather the head of Caesar: Failed. Defeat the NCR: Complete Gather the NCR President Skull: failed. Consolation prize: A Rubber chicken, Maneus Calgar plush toy.> He sighed... Well, at least things don't go worse than it already is. He went to the Lucky 38 with a heartfelt goodbye to his friend Robert house as he went to the East coast to get the Institute and assimilate the nation once more. "You sure you are not staying here?" House asked Alexander as he stated his plans to head to the east coast and possibly into Europe. "Old friend... I would love to spend time with you... But I forseen there is a great evil stirring in europe... If not stopped, even the securitron army might not save you..." "You seem so serious when you want to head to the east coast..." "I want a unified america and the world to fight this incoming darkness... The cost of blood and steel may be excessive...When I am back... Let's have stories to share... Like old times... " House paused for a bit... But his sincerity is shown through the screen. "Once your doctor's managed to fix me back and the platinum chip at my hands... We have much to discuss about." As Alexander looked at his friend... Perhaps for the last time... And smiled as the elevator doors opened behind him. "See you soon... May you take the reins if I have fallen..." As he went down, the Casino is lively now with customers. Many of the patrons came and spend cash and chips into House casinos from Texas and former Ncr wealthy that managed to fled before the capitulation of their capital.. Many of them didn't bother to harass him as he is the one of the few guest that the ghost above the tower favors. And he is the defacto leader of this imperium unless they want to try and end up as a servitor working in the mine for eternity, many just enjoy the ambience of the old world had to offer. Veronica approach him as soon as he exited the Lucky 38. Palladin Macnamara have resigned and by the circle of steel, they have annoited Veronica as the Elder of the Brotherhood... As she is close relationship to the leader of the imperium and it saved face for them to have someone that voice their concerns to Alexander. "Alexander... Are you leaving so soon?" Her eyes looked at the ranger uniform wondering where is the man that helped search for her father is going... "Veronica... I heading to the east and beyond that..." "Take me with you..." "No... You have your family living in this place... The Midwest brotherhood need someone like you to guide them in this coming times..." "But-" her mouth is pressed by his fingers... "Family is more important... There is a enemy that is beyond what all the chapters of the brotherhood could handle... Just make sure... This place is kept safe..." Alexander gave her a hug as he whispered to her. "I can't be your lover... I am just a friend to you....any father would understand that there is a time for a bird to spread her wings into the blue skies. I will promise I be back..." "I see... Thanks Alexander for everything you have done for my family..." She hugged him tight as if making her body remember him as she teared up knowing that she been rejected. She watched him go to the exit of the strip with several securitrons lining up as if giving him a farewell. The last time she saw him as the door is closed he gave a wave as if assuring her. Alexander watched as the door that led the the strip closed behind him. "Theseus... There is more to life than staying one place... Chaos and numbers would not sit still... I seen the future is i leave it to fate hands...any reports of the Siberia?" "Great... A communist that focused on worshipping chaos... That is hilarious." "Time for a long travel to the Commonwealth..." As he passed by primm, he found Ed-e the Eyebot in the courier station and fixed it as they went to the east... The knowledge in the eyebot storage unit have been handed to the mechanicus, and they are interested in the technology of such a primitive civilization managed to create a power solutions and the eyebot designs is somewhat a favorable companion with the skitarii. The purpose of the eyebot had done its purpose and now it follows Alexander to the east. Alexander left a clone of the eyebot for the courier six with its memories intact... If he ever came by primm and begin to search the divide for answers... "Let's go Eddie" Alexander smiled with his new companion. "*Happy Beeping*" the eyebot bouncing up and down. Alexander went on a journey to the east, this time alone without his men or his brothers Astarte protecting him. To see America first hand by himself through the lens on the ground. He went to Utah, where he passed by Zion national park, he had no intention of pissing off Joshua Graham living there, but he made a detour and buried the man that protected the natives before the plant spore devoured him from within, Colorado where he sees plenty of gold miners that March into the mines to harvest for the next quotas, then Kansas was the one that amused him the most. In a sense it was like travelling like a tourist... As most of the raiders were exterminated and many would-be have hidden themselves... It was corn country, Corn that walks six feet in the air, corn grenades, corn monsters, flying corn monsters... Corn that gives radiation and the famous corn Cannon that lobbed 15 feet of corn... Radiation was a mess. But it was the most friendly state as the civilian there gave him presents made by them... Somehow when the people gave him presents... He has doubt of what he is planning to do to the nation... He made his way to the Missouri river now home to bloatflys and yao guai... Somehow the sunset is beautiful in the land of Missouri... Along the travel, he received a transmission in Utah. "This is the Texans 25th Infantry Company! We are under attack by some vault dwellers! We need reinforcements! Vault Number 214! Any imperial assets in the local net please respond!" "Seems like we are here to save the day eh? Eddie?" He found Vault 214... And found the outside Uncomfortable, there is some wrecks of Chimeras however there are no imperial soldiers, so he went to the vault disguise as a visitor, unaware of the situation happen outside.. The vault dwellers is friendly at the start, lead him to the dining room and gave him a couple meal that consists of gelatin like substance and as soon as he about to eat it, a warning from the system. He took a sniff and a trace of human flesh is faint despite the chemicals within tried to masked the scent. He stood up and aimed his gun at the nearest vault dweller. "Fuck, you what happened to the soldiers outside?" The target was a woman, her eyes turned crazed as her pupils dilated and stared at Alexander... "You mean the followers of the Carrion Emperor? They are delicious-" her brains is blasted apart. Only cultist of the four Chaos gods gave him a nickname... The vault dwellers have become chaos cult and one thing he hates is chaos now flooding into this realm. The Emperor Tree that is planted in Texas need time to grow... But time is dire.. The dwellers in the vault came to life as they began to converge towards the dining room... Security wearing armor from vault tech flooded the room. Even those that seemed friendly at the start now flooded the room with pool cues and hammers. Everytime he killed one, one of them scream that it is their sister/daughter/aunt and the men ect. It disgusted him that the vault is comprised of incestuous Cannibals... And he was the next meal ticket. "And here I thought Alabama is the one that got the nickname!" Alexander yell as he shot a cannibal vault dweller in the head ending the person life. "*Confused beeping*" Ed-e swayed a bit as the eyebot shot hellgun from its underbelly. It been modified with imperium tech and a emotion chip to understand the companion. "I know! Life is stranger than fiction after all!" After killing all the attackers... Alexander looked around and found that there is no children in the vault.. only vats of unknown design. Alexander headed to the overseer office. "Now let's see here... The overseer office might have the answers" As he logged into the terminal "Now let's see here... Show me your secrets... You know Ed-e... Had I known how frak the Vault tech done to the citizens... I would have already waged war... " Alexander is disgusted of the social experiment of 214... It was a experiment in the event that humans were unable to find food in the radiation hellscape, this vault was tasked to mate with a biological clone humans that is pumped with fertility drugs, breed children as food supply for the vault and those that is useful is kept as slaves. Centuries of inbreeding have made them... Biologically insane. Alexander got to his satellite phone and ordered a search for the vaults and designated as environmentally hazardous. "Some may be safe, while others... I doubt anyone could be saved..." He travel a bit gloomier after that place. He recalled what happened to the soldiers. He found the remains of the soldiers in a pile of heap tha is dedicated to the chaos gods and grabbed dog tags of the imperial soldiers. He cremated it leaving chaos nothing to inhabit the soldiers of the imperium... He blessed the dogtags and sent them to the Sisters of battle that now entering the vault to sanctify the taint. And by taint... They purge the area in flamer fuel and set it on fire by purification. As he made his way to the Commonwealth to meet Lyon Brotherhood eastern chapter for assistance, and hopefully the Enclave for a certain Colonel.. The Chaos forces is now spreading out from Siberia like a plague. Everywhere they go, death and destruction follows. Cultures destroyed in days as the natives that were enslaved worship the nine pointed sigil and sacrifice their children. Tribes and caravans vanished out of thin air. Russia is becoming a terraforming hub for chaos, demons now haunted the winter wasteland making the survivors live in fear. Tears of the warp now broken reality into the the winter lands The Black legion began to invade Imperium held territories in Russia and a tug of war between them commence. Lands became blackened with soot of gunpowder, craters, corpses of both imperial soldiers and cultist piled high with the cultist numbers ever more significant than the one the Imperial guard loses. The skies above Siberia and Baku have littered with the demons carcasses as they disappear into the warp and Astra Aeronautica planes burning into a ball of flames. Alexander gave orders to cordon Russia until he arrives there, but if there is leeway if the Imperial guards and the astartes that manages to hold the line, if possible, pushed their way to the heart of darkness. The redeemed legions for the first time tasted the blood and fury against their former companions in another realm. "Die Traitor! For returning to the liar of a false emperor! You forsake the hatred against the loyalist of the carrion emperor!" A Black legion spat as he clashed with a Iron Warrior terminator. Such occurance is getting more common as they focused their hatred to the Astates that accompanied the imperial guards. "We fight for humanity, brother.. we follow the High lord of Terra, Lord of Cogs and Gears, leader of the Ten thousand..." The Terminator calmly spoke as he grabbed one of the Black legion helmet and crush it with his power fist. "You are mad that you lowered yourselves for a baseline human!" Another spat as he shot a barrage at the lumbering dreadnought. His bolter rounds did not pierced the conversion shield that protected the Venerable dreadnought. "He is not baseline human, he is the Emperor Emissary and his son, he is much better than the lies that the emperor have given to us.." the Death Guard dreadnought grabbed one of the black legion and tossed him in the air for the anti-aircraft batteries nearby to shred the traitor astartes to pieces as he unleashed Krak missiles at the incoming horde of black legions that barreling towards him. Such battle is a daily occurrence in the Russia lands. And the battles stirred something ancient residing in Europe... In a realm that is hidden away from mortal eyes, several being watched as the battle in Russia is ongoing. Several gods is watching the show. "So the son of the golden king have arrive in this realm... Midas is it? Freya have express her interest in this mortal and thor is interested in this mortal being... His pathways is endless... His body is made of fate weaving around him?" "Don't give me that blasphemous mortal that took power from us... especially his progeny. He carries the scent of the Pandora box and I hate it... What did that fool have done..." "Haa... Why do we even hide in this world that is destroyed and the people soon worshipping the Golden king... We have to deal with him." "However I would point out that his men is fighting the slaves from the void... If we oust him that is controlling them... Do we have the powers to defy the monsters that is spilling out? The veil have been shattered by a faithless heathen. And we used up our divinity to escape the realm of endless war..." "If I only dealt with that mortal before he became a god none of this would have happened..." A Greek man complain of the situation before him. "Had you not been so arrogant towards the Mortal that sought our aid, we wouldn't have fled to this place as he burned down every churches and temples that gives us faith, had we not been aware that the False gods in the void crept into the psyche of the human race, we would have stood a better chance against the chaos four..." A oriental woman whimpered. Each of the three pantheons paid a price of fleeing the realm they were station in. "So who's going to be the messenger? No way I will met the mortal, I got the urge to toss a few thunderbolts at that skull of his..." "I would like to send Thor to meet with him." "Not Freya?" "Amaterasu... You know how frisky she if he met her." "Then I would send Hermes to accompany Thor to see if he is not a threat... This is the last realm... And we have nowhere to flee to...our pantheons have wane over the years and the barrier to prevent the supernatural is weakening." Helen sighed at her husband antics. What's left of the pantheons that escape Warhammer now resided in this nuclear hellscape. Alexander would be meeting them as soon as he is done with unifying America. _________ (A/n): exhausted as farming is intensifies. Should I simply bulldoze my way through fallout and see none of the cool stuff that this remnant world have to offer? Or take it slow... And flesh out the Fallout arc. I am interested to know if there is truly gods that resided in fallout. We got monsters, aliens and ghost... I wonder why did Bethesda didn't allow gods to roamed the lands...
