-The Strip- Edda let out a low whistle as they got off the monorail and unto the Strip. It was near the north end, the casinos down southwards, but it was still quite busy. Numerous shops, a few stalls, and a lot of people, both civilians and NCR soldiers in uniform. Here and there were Securitrons which acted as the police force for the Strip. “Make sure you don't piss the robots off,” Edda mentioned, “They work for House, the head guy around here. They're basically the police force.” -Camp McCarren- Erin was quiet for a moment as Jason brought her into the conversation, looking downwards as she tried to figure out the right answer. “...If you want...” Erin finally settled on, “I'm not really sure what dating and getting married means...” She had some vague thoughts on it. Kids, a house, something like that...but nothing really concrete. -New Vegas Desert- “Some kind of Raiders, I think...” Galv said, pulling Melanie along and getting her and himself behind some ruins of an old wall, as more shots fired. After a few minutes they heard shouting, then pounding feet. He risked a look, seeing the wagon burning to the ground, abandoned now. He saw some soldiers racing off towards the raiders, driving them away, soon disappearing in the haze of heat in this desert. Galv swallowed, looking around. He had no idea where they were at, how to get back to McCarren... They did see the buildings of New Vegas though... “...We better hurry to New Vegas...” Galv said, turning back to Melanie, holding out his hand, “It should be safer there...” (And now I must go to work in fiveish minutes. D: ) |

[The Strip] “Are you okay?” Connor asked. He noticed Sarai was sticking very close to him, and she seemed uncomfortable. He put his arm around her (probably to the irritation of Chloe) and pulled her close. “Come on, let’s go to one of the Casinos.” As they passed the Securitrons, Connor shuddered when Edda explained what they were. “That reminds me of the Enclave… except they have robots here? Man… it’s even worse than the Enclave.” |

The Strip "Woooow this is pretty damn cool" Chloe said, eyes on the stalls as they passed by...She turned her attention back to the others, frowning as she noticed Connor and Sarai so close. “Are you okay?” Sarai gave a shaky nod, looking up as Connor placed an arm around her. "Y-Yeah...It's just...K-Kinda a lot of p-p-people" she said "It's i-intimidating..." "Awwwww don't worry Sarai!" Chloe said, suddenly shimmying in between the two and throwing her arms around their shoulders (so that she was happily in between them) "Except for the occasional mugger, murderer and guy who keeps pretty girls in his basement this place is TOTALLY safe" All the color drained from Sarai's face, the former Avox unsure if Chloe was being serious or not. She didn't want to be locked in someone's basement ;A; Camp McCarren "Well...OF course I do-ahhhh Maybe we should have this conversation away from the old people. When we get to the Strip me and you can do something...Without them." Mostly because they were embarrassing him. New Vegas Desert Melanie nodded, trying to catch her breath when they hid behind a wall. She heard Galv say they needed to get out of here--towards the Strip- but everything was kinda muffled. And her eyes were blurry. Melanie wanted to sit in a fridge right now. "Okay" she told him, squeezing her eyes shut for a moment and deciding to just run. |

[The Strip] Connor frowned as Chloe wedged her way between them. He felt a bit awkward suddenly having Chloe pressed against him, but he was too clueless to realize how much worse this would be for Sarai. “Chloe, stop teasing Sarai!” Connor scolded her with a frown. “I’m sure this city is perfectly safe. Besides, Sarai, you know I’d never let anything happen to you.” |

The Strip "Oh what are you gonna do to protect her? Heal the bad guy to death?" Chloe laughed "He'd probably keep you in the basement too for round two!" Poor Sarai was taking all of this seriously by the way. "Oh i'm just kidding!" Chloe finally said, letting go of the couple, but not before clapping Connor hard on the back. "And anyways if any baddies come try to snatch you miho then i'll break their spines and shove it up their-OH LOOK!" Chloe was suddenly distracted by a jewelry stand, most likely full of fake or stolen goods but interesting none-the-less. |

[The Strip] Connor scowled at Chloe. He did not understand why she seem to enjoy teasing them so much. He supposed it was just how she was, but Connor wished that she would be nicer. When Chloe finally let go and rushed over to a shady street side vendor, Connor just groaned. The vendor, however, grinned to Chloe. “Hello! A beautiful necklace for a beautiful lady?” He asked, offering a large diamond necklace that he probably looted from a corpse. |

The Strip Sarai gave a relieved breath when Chloe moved away, the girl looking at Connor and biting her lip. "N-No one is g-g-gonna take y-you away....Right?" AKA: you won't let Armstrong take you into his basement. Or her either. "A beautiful necklace for a beautiful lady?" "Well I am pretty beeeeautiful" Chloe said with a wide grin, taking the necklace from the vendor and holding it up to her neck. She turned to see if Connor was looking, but frowned she she noticed that he was not that interested. He probably would have been swooning over Sarai if she was up here. "...You know what...Nevermind. I'm not one for much sparkle anyways." |

[The Strip] Connor wrapped his arms around Sarai and pulled her close against him. He kissed her forehead and then leaned back and smiled at her. “I’d never let anyone take you away from me.” Connor said confidently. “And no one will ever come between us. So don’t worry, okay?” |

-The Strip- “No, the Securitrons aren't like what the Enclave have, if what I know about them is true,” Edda said, shaking his head, “They don't just drag people away. They break up fights and keep the peace. House wants people here to feel safe enough to keep coming and spending their money after all.” He then stayed quiet, as Chloe held up the necklace, trying to get Connor's attention. “Errrrr...why don't we check out the Tops?” Edda said, pointing to the nearby casino, “They have some entertainment, comedians, song and dance. Suppose to be pretty good.” -Monorail- The monorail returned, Ethan smirking and entering it with Kanna, Erin following along with Jason. “Okay...” Erin said, nodding her head, taking a seat next to Jason. Ethan leaned to Kanna, whispering in her ear. “Now we don't have to worry about Jason following us,” he said quietly. -New Vegas Desert- Galv frowned. It was clear Melanie was not in the best of shape with the heat. He kept hold of her hand, running for a bit towards the Strip. After a couple minutes Galv slowed down, as they came to some buildings outside the wall of the Strip. “Are you okay?” Galv asked, turning to Melanie now, “I can carry you...” -Flashback: The Flare- Chaos. Fire burned, people were screaming. Gunshots, explosions. Civilization was falling around his ears, and he wandered the streets, green eyes wide, black hair disheveled. Electronics stopped working from the flare that hit the earth. They were only still alive because it had hit the other side of the planet, but the resulting chaos was killing billions... “Hey, give me your money!” The man turned his head, as another man brandished a gun at him, wild eyed. “Come on! Don't make me use this!” the man yelled. “...Money?” the black haired man said, then laughed at the insanity of it all, “Money isn't worth anything right now, you idiot!” “Then give it to me!” the man with the gun yelled, “Now!” “I don't have any,” the black haired man said, shaking his head. “I don't want to hurt you...” “F*** man, I do,” the man with the gun replied, then leveled the gun. The black haired man moved, waving his hand and focusing. A telekinetic grip grabbed the other man, flinging him backwards, backwards over some rubble, where he didn't get back up. Don Gallic shook his head. All this confusion. All this chaos...Humanity was dying... A sudden roar of gunfire, and he looked up. A helicopter! It beat overhead, a searchlight sweeping over the chaos below, before it circled around and started back. It meant that some group had prepared. If he could get there...he might have a chance. Don turned, hurrying and following the chopter as best he could... |

The Strip "Sounds good to me " Chloe said when Edda suggested visiting the Tops. She needed a little humor in her life right about now. "Lets get there quick, I need a drink" Chloe. You aren't old enough to drink. [...] Sarai stiffened a bit as Connor pulled her into a hug, but she was quick to relax as he kissed the her forhead and told her she would be protected....And that no one would come between them...That was the most important part. "O-Okay" she said with a small smile, feeling comfortable once more. She kissed him quickly before looking back to the group. New Vegas Desert "I'm okay....I'm just...Really really hot..." Melanie said, fanning her cheeks. "I need to cool down....Find somewhere really cold." Monorail "I suppose I should thank you" Kanna said to Ethan, with a slight grin. "Perhaps i'll let you buy me a drink....." |

[The Strip] Connor walked with Sarai back over to Chloe and Edda. He nodded to Edda as he suggested they go to the Tops. “Sure, it would be nice to see a casino… although will they even let us in?” They were too young to drink or gamble… at least they would have been if this were still the Pre-Flare United States. In New Vegas, the only rule was that the House always wins. |

-The Strip- “Oh yah, they'll let us in,” Edda said to the others, “They don't really care much about age or anything...but we need to behave ourselves.” They headed inside the Tops, stopping as one of the Chairmen, a worker there, stopped them. “Alright kids, hand over any weapons you got on you,” the man said, “We'll keep them nice and safe for you.” Edda nodded, taking the sword from his back off and handing it to the man. -New Vegas Desert- Galv nodded, looking away from Melanie for a moment, worry on his face. Somewhere cold...in the desert... It wasn't like they could wait until morning... “Here...” Galv said after a moment. He took his shirt off, and wrapped it around Melanie's head, to keep the heat off of her, “It should help a little...” He gave Melanie and encouraging smile, “I'm sure we can find somewhere cool soon...” He kept hold of her hand, and soon they came to some gates. Outside where three young men, all wearing black leather jackets. Galv paused, wondering if they could help... “Hey!” Galv called out, “Uhhh...do you know where there's anyplace cool?” One of the men paused, turning and seeing the two. He sighed, shaking his head for a moment, then called out, “Head through the gate. Freeside. The Atomic Wrangler's cool. Just be careful kid, okay?” Galv nodded, thanking the man, and lead Melanie into Freeside... This won't end well. -Monorail- Ethan smiled at Kanna, “I hope you'll allow me to buy you more then that. I hear the casinos have some lovely private rooms...” Creepers be creepin'. -Flashback: The Flare- Don scrambled over a car, dodging a gun shot that narrowly hit him, cursing. He cursed again as several shots pinged off the car, holding up his hand, fire bursting in a small orb, tossing it back and forth, trying to pin point where the shots were coming from. Then he heard the cry. It was a kid, calling for his parents. Another shot, glass breaking from it now. Don scanned the chaos in front of him, stopping and seeing another car, a face pressed against the glass. The entire front end of the car was smashed. The kid must have been pinned... But he couldn't get to the kid without this sniper hitting him... The bullets seemed to have stopped, but for all Don knew, it just meant that he was moving to get a better shot. Well...he had to try something. He darted upwards, belting across the clear way, zigzagging to try and throw off the aim. A shot! Pain burned through Don's left shoulder, and he spun, fire bursting from his hands, a large fireball in the direction of the shot. A sudden scream, and a man appeared, falling out of an open window, body on fire as he twisted in the air, hitting the ground with a sickening thud. Don gulped slowly, then turned back to the car with the kid in it. Strange, his shoulder was feeling better already... He felt it carefully. No pain, but there was blood, but... Another check. No bleeding. His wound had healed...somehow. But how? He had a couple abilities before the flare...his telekinesis and pyrokinesis...Had the Flare somehow jumpstarted other latent powers? For now he would come to that later. He hurried to the car, and tried to open the door, the kid whimpering. Small kid, boy, about seven years old. Blond, blue eyes. The door was stuck. “Hold on kid!” Don called through the glass, then focused. The metal screeched, and Gallic tore the door off with telekinesis, looking inside. The kid was not stuck, legs up on the seat. His face was a mess, he had been crying for a long time. His lips smacked, and he looked up at Don. “Where are your parents, kid?” Don asked, already fearing he knew the answer. “...They left a couple days ago. Said to wait here, they'd be back soon...” kid said, “Didn't come back. Grownups outside went crazy...hid here...please mister, do you have some water?” Don hesitated. He did have some water, carefully rationed for his trek to where he was pretty sure was the only bastion of civilization left. “...Yah kid, I do,” Don relented, giving the kid a small smile. He produced a bottle of water from his bag, and the kid grabbed it eagerly, drinking it down, then looked back up at Don. Another sigh, and Don produced a sandwich, which the kid also ate quickly. Don was quiet for a moment, looking around at the destruction. “What's your name kid?” Don asked now. “'s Walter...” the kid answered, “Walter...Douglas...” “I see...” Don said, “My name is Don. Don Gallic.” “Thank you Mister Gallic,” Walter said, “Do you know where my parents are?” “Probably dead...” Don thought to himself, but didn't say it outloud. “I'm not, but I know somewhere that should be safe...maybe your parents are there,” Don offered, “You can come with me.” “...Momma said I shouldn't trust strangers...but you helped me out mister, so you can't be a stranger...” the seven year old said, coming to him what was a logical conclusion, “Alright then.” Don smiled, helping Walter out of the car carefully, “Alright...we still have a ways to go...” |

[The Tops] Connor shrugged his shoulders to the Chairman at the front desk. “I don’t have any weapons. Is it common for people to carry them around here?” Connor sounded like a tourist. He wasn’t very street smart and it showed; and Chloe would probably be furious at the rookie mistake. |

New Vegas Desert Galv was taking off his shirt in an attempt to keep Melanie cool....In all truth this was actually having quite the adverse effect, making the poor girl's face heat up even more...Though at least now she had something(one) to stare at while she overheated. "T-Thanks" she managed, as he pulled the cloth around her head like a turban and took her hand. Soon they were off again, coming across some people who would hopefully be able to help. Head through the gate. Freeside. The Atomic Wrangler's cool. Just be careful kid, okay?” "What's Freeside?" Melanie whispered to Galv "Better yet what's an Atomic Wrangler? A place?" The Strip The instant Connor opened his mouth Chloe groaned and slapped her forehead. "Miho you sound like an effing tourist" she told him, reaching down to her boot and pulling out a dagger. She also went for another hanging on her hip. Sarai hesitated before pulling out a small knife, given to her from the rebels when Connor wasn't doing so well. She handed it over as well. Monorail "It seems as if you know all about the behind-the-scenes going ons of the casino. I should be honored that such an insider will be escorting me." Kanna said before giving a shrug "But don't think you'll be getting under this dress unless you'd like to lose an arm." |

[The Tops] Connor was a bit surprised to see that Sarai had a knife. He wondered if he should have brought a weapon, but he hadn’t really thought about it. Connor wasn’t the sort to want to think about violence. “Sorry…” He said to Chloe as she snapped at him for acting like a tourist. He rubbed the back of his neck. |
