Wastelander

Prologue

“Are you sure this will only take just a few seconds?! I don’t wanna’ be here when those chainsaw wielding raiders show up.”

“Trust me; I want to be scarce as much as you do when they come around… but there’s supposedly a vault below here, and I can’t seem to find it through this maze of hallways.”

“You’re after that good old Vault-Tech huh? Well, I must say that I am impressed wait… What’s that?!”

[Suddenly there was shuffling in the background, then muffled voices… then the roar of chain saws.]

“We have to get out of here, like two minutes ago!”

“I’m going as fast as I can! This crap takes time and what we don’t have is just that!”

“Then let’s get the hell out of here before we end up like Mr. Lop and Chop over there.”

“Okay, just give me a few more moments, then were out of here!”

“Hey! Didn’t you hear me? I’m gone whether you’re high-tailing it out of here or not!”

“Okay let’s go!!!”

[They luckily had a back door that the raiders didn’t know about, or so they thought…]

[Suddenly they heard voices, the raiders’ voices, but one raider’s voice particularly stood out…]

“Hey… I think I’ll try the back door this time!”

The two scientist ponies’ hearts sank.

They were trapped…

The raider who had finally thought to try the back door, his name was shredder; ‘irony’ had noticed them right as they were making a break for it.

“Well, well, well… what do we have here?”

“Oh, nothing… just some harmless scientists trying to study the surrounding area. Don’t mind us… we’ll be out of your way in no time.”

“Oh you’ll be out of my way… in pieces!”

The raider revved up his chainsaw; it was only moments before the one who was looking for the vault, whose name was Archon, was dismembered head first.

The second one, his name is Locke, manage to carry with him some scrap grenades, he lobbed one at his would-be murderer… sending molten pieces of razor-sharp shrapnel into the raider’s chest.

Then Locke made a run for it
