This...

This...

This...

This can't be happening!

It was though.

The big mushroom cloud made of fire was before me as Japan was on fire along with South Korea and Hawaii all of them burned with nuclear fire.

He did it...

He actually did it...

That fat bastard actually did it...

I can only assume right now America and her allies have already sent their own nukes to make North Korea pay but of course, China and its allies would send their own for 'attacking' North Korea.

It was bound to happen, deep down I knew this would happen in my lifetime when the human race would kill itself.

"Stand by,"

That was all that was said before my radio went to white noise.

One can only laugh at how I would survive the plane crash only to die by radiation.

Ironic...

It's like that scene from MW...

You gave a quiet and painless death for a long and painful death.

It's so damn hot.

It's getting harder to keep my eyes open, though why am I keeping them open?

Even if I was rescued it would be hell, my body is already damaged beyond repair from the fallout...

Fuck so this is what Radiation poison feels like?

Though it would differ, to be honest.

This life had its moments but it was mostly shit.

I guess this had to happen with the stupidity in my life from the dumbest things going on.

Still don't want my last moments to bethink about what made humans so dumb.

It does break my heart that I would never get to experience not play any new video games I was looking forward to liking if sony would ever do a new sly cooper or if Microsoft would make a new fallout...

Heh funny I'm thinking about fallout when I'm experiencing one right now basically.

That aside the one thing that makes me really heart heavy is not being to meet my discord buddies in real life or be able to my dad one last time.

It was a good run, to say the least...

Oh no...

There's the organ failure, the doctor was right it's always the kidneys that come first...

Why is it always the kidneys?

I don't care anymore really.

Just hope there is a light followed by golden gates.

I...

I think I'm ready for the long nap now.

One life to another more painful life...

"BORED!"

...

The Stormbeast in the Fortress didn't move from their posts as the Stormking was of course 'Bored' it would be a long time for the right moment for him to finally take control of the world when the princesses were at one place. Sadly the next seven months were going to be hell if this was going to happen the entire time, sure he could oversee the preparation of the troops and equipment but he already did that like x1,000 times already.

He needs to do something.

Turning his head slightly he eyed Tempest shadow the commander of his army would be blanking forward, he had to admit for a pony she was fucking sexy. Years of self-training and survival since she was cast out from her home when she was a child had done her body well and unlike most- actually all ponies she doesn't shy away from eating meat that has given her a body that could rival one of the Wounderbolts. Her entire body was tough if not 'tougher' than nails as the word amazon wasn't even the right word for her, her entire form was completely balanced in all the right places.

Next to her breasts which were the right size not too big and not too small, along with those scars on her body that seemed to make her even more sexier. Her eyes were even gems in her eyes as the countless things she had to do to survive rested within them as they seemly could kill if she wanted it to happen. The Stormking wanted to tap that ass so fucking back but it would be 1,000,000x better when he had the power of the princesses and right when he refuses to give her horn would make the look on her face so much better when he would break her right then and there.

Turning forward he huffed.

But he had to wait...

Damn this was boring as all hell...

"My lord," A voice spoke as the Stormking was so Bored out of his mind that he didn't notice the mage before him.

"Yes, what is it?" He asked.

"Well while creating the spell orbs we may have accidentally added too much crystalized magic into one of the orbs and well..."

"What happened?"

"Actually sire it's what's 'happening'," The mage said.

The orb lab was currently filled with light as a vortex had opened from where the orb that went off causing the vortex to appear. Many of the mages were aback by what was happening and the storm beasts were shielding them with themselves as the doors open to the mage, Tempest, and the Stormking to see the vortex.

"WHAT IS THAT!" The Stormking demanded.

"It's most likely a portal or a vortex I'm surprised it's still active," The mage said as the Stormking looked back at it.

"Well close it!" The Stormking demanded.

"We don't know how the vortex could need a spell or an object is thrown into it or-"

Before the mage could finish the Stormking grabbed and then threw the mage into the portal as his screams echoed before fading within the vortex. The white vortex then flickered before turning green and then something was thrown from the vortex before it closed leaving the Stormking and Tempest looking down at their feet to see that something was someONE.

A being covered in a duster and some armored plates on the shoulders of the duster along with the arms, legs, and even the head had been covering in armor as well. Stormking blinked before tapping on the being with his staff this caused the being to gasp for air before shooting up as Tempest readied herself for a fight but the red eyes of the helmet that the being wore shot around the room clearly confused.

The storm beasts and mages were all just as surprised as the commander and king but the being didn't pull out a weapon as Tempest was holding on to her trusty dagger on her belt. Hearing the being breathe heavily from behind its strange helmet the faded green armor-wearing being looked at its hands as if seeing them for the first time before stumbling back into a chair. Still breathing heavily the being put an arm on one of the worktables as he looked right at the Stormking and Tempest Shadow as if he knew who they were.

"Fuck..." This caught Tempest by surprise by the alien-like being able to speak in Equestrian. "Shit, why do I feel like I need a smoke? I never smoke in my... wait... have I? Whatever I need one,"

As if by magic a green flash appeared around his right hand on the table as a cigarette pack appeared as the being used its thumb to push the top off as he reached to his helmet with a shaking hand. All watched as they heard the being breathe as the being slowly removed his helmet as he then placed it onto his lap as they all went wide-eyed seeing the being. Pulling a cigarette from the box he put it into his mouth as another green light appeared on his left, a small old fashion lighter covered in dried blood as the being used his thumb to light it before bringing the flame to his cigarette. Sending the lighter away back in the green light with the box the being inhaled before grabbing the cigarette and pulling it from his mouth as he exhaled a puff of smoke from his nose.

"You have no idea how it feels to have synthetic lungs and that go through you," The being said as he brought the cigarette back to his mouth.

All seemed to lighten up at this being but kept their guard because of what kind of aura this being was giving off a 'don't-fuck-with-me-or-I-fucking-kill-you' kinda vibe. They then watched as the being Placed a hand to his face he sighed.

"Though I had to say this wasn't what I was expecting... guess it's one of those things that you never get an answer from," As his almost robotic-like eyes in his skull moved to his hand looking at his clawed fingertips. "Have to say this looks a lot better than before,"

No one spoke until Tempest straightened up from her stance.

"What does?"

The being chuckled slightly.

"You wouldn't understand it... it's a 'you had to be there' kind of thing to understand," The being said as he looked at the helmet it was slightly different from how he remembered it but his armor had to go with his new body after all.

Tempest looked at him.

"Who are you?" She demanded.

"That's a hard question... I mean sure I can give you one of my names I have been given but the name my mom and dad gave me is kinda hard to remember," He said as he took another huff.

Tempest raised her brow as she spoke.

"Why is that," She watched as the being put two fingers against his skull and then clicked his tongue as his hand moved up kinda like a gun being fired.

Everyone in the room went wide-eyed, then the Stormking laughed.

"That's not possible," The Stormking said crossing his arms.

They watched as the being reached into his armored neck collar that held the number 101 before pulling out a pair of dog tags that also held what seemed to be a bullet wrapped in wire.

"This was in my skull before the doc could dig it out," The being said as everyone saw the bloodstain bullet. "I was just lucky it was a full metal jacket and wasn't a fucking hollow point,"

Everyone in the room didn't know what to say about this but everyone saw him rub his forehead as if he was rubbing an old scar.

"Not the first time my brain was fucked up... got to say my brain isn't all there anymore after that dick cut my brain," He said.

"Wait what does that mean?" A mage asked.

"What do you think? A fucker decided to trick me and when I was passed out he decided to open up my skull like a nut and cut into my brain for his damn collection," The being told the mage as he tapped the ash off his cigarette. "Then again I'm not fully me anymore I'm more synthetic stuff, metal, and plastic along with my DNA fucked all over the place,"

All just stared at him somehow knowing deep down he was telling the truth.

Watching the being as his eyes of a predator were relaxed as if he didn't seem the as a real threat.

"You wanted to know my name?" He asked.

"Y-yes," For the first time in many years Tempest's voice cracked.

"Courier six but six for short or call me what you like as long as it doesn't piss me off," He said as he slightly chuckled to himself before whispering. "Damn Cass's nickname for me was pretty fucking funny,"

The Stormking then burst out laughing.

"YOU'RE A MAILMAN?! HOW IS THAT-? WHY IS THAT-! GOOD GODS A MAILMAN! WHY WOULD I BE AFRAID OF A MAILMAN!?" The Stormking said as Six had his eyes closes as he used one of the orb parts as an ashtray.

"Because I'm the guy who gets a message across," He then pulled out another one and lit it.

"Ohhhhhhh I'll take a letter from this guy's mommy and think being a courier is a cool name ohhhhhh!" The Stormking mocked as Tempest held a serious look on her face. "Come on Tempest that a good one,"

"Um... sire... I don't think it's that kind of message he was talking about," She said as the Stormking kept laughing.

"Oh yeah? Then what kind of message was he talking about?" The Stormking said whipping a tear from his eye.

"I think you know my lord," Tempest said as the Stormking laughed for a few moments before looking at the being who was looking at the device on his arm.

"I-I-I honestly don't know what you are... talking... about," Then it hit him like a train.

He wasn't hiding his skeletons.

He then stopped laughing and smiling altogether as he placed his other hand on his staff.

"W-who sent you," The Stormking asked slightly worried now.

"Nobody... This is an accident that just happened... Though I think this time I can't return home but then again... who would want to go back?" The courier said as he tapped the ash off. "I mean when everyone that you thought was your friend wants you dead why would you,"

Tempest froze up slightly at this before the Stormking placed a finger on his chest plate pulling on it like a tie as if he was about to go into a meeting with a company CEO.

"Uh... hahaha... So then 'Six' was it I can see you a man of many talents and like any good king I know an ally when I see one," The Stormking said putting his best smile on his face, knowing if he didn't get this guy on his team than it would be the ponies that would have them on there and his plans for world conquest would be ruined.

Six looked up as he begins lighting up his third hand covering the lighter as his eyes seemed to be on fire for a moment before relaxing his arms.

"Yeah?"

"Well, are you... say for hire?" The Stormking said as the courier spoke.

"I am," The Stormking felt like a light load was lifted off of him. "But,"

They all looked at him as he held up a clawed hand with three fingers up.

"I ask of three things,"

The weight was back on.

"Fresh clean water," A finger went down.

"Nice warm food," Another down.

"And a comfortable bed," Then the weight and more disappeared.

The Stormking smiled as he nodded.

"Those are very fair ideas I can provide for you Six," The courier nodded.

"I'm a simple man making his way through the world," Six told the king. "The basics things in life are all I really need,"

The Stormking smiled knowing with this new player on his team the plans he has are going to go by smoother and easier than before.

(Later)

Tempest escorted the courier that was walking behind her as he had his helmet back on and the two of them didn't speak a word as she brought him to the new room that the storm king had readied for him as soon as possible. The courier and Tempest before the room was ready just sat in silence in the lab as the maids cleaned the room from the vortex and ass he did were sit there thinking while smoking as she watched his hand on her dagger as if could do anything to him. Even now she felt in a bad spot with her back to the courier and he could attack her now and she wouldn't notice it before it was too late.

Though if he wanted her dead he would have done it while they went up the stair where there weren't any guards around, whoever this guy was behind her was dangerous but not insane as she thought he was a first...

Maybe he was, to be honest like how to claim he was taking in his surroundings and casually having a smoke in a room filled with unknown beings that easily outnumbered him. He had must have been deeply scared or seen many people die for just him being a blank being that seemly didn't care if he died by some unknown threat. That or he didn't even bother with the unknown surrounding as if he had been in the same spot many times before and seeing the metal fangs his mouth had something told her that his very bones were metal or something and trying to hurt him wouldn't be easy.

As they made it to his room she pushed the door open to a room very like her own, big and comfortable unlike the maids and the soldiers had. Six seemed to be an important player now and this guy just had to sit in front of the Stormking for him to recruit him for if he didn't then he would very much be a Foe that they couldn't beat. For the first time since Tempest knows the Stormking he made the smartest choice yet by far!

Taking off his helmet she looked at the back of his head seeing the fluff of the back making her wonder how he felt while wearing the helmet with his sharped head. As he walked over to the bed he sat down at the side as Tempest felt something...

It was hard but when she saw the courier like he was feeling something that she once felt...

The pain that she felt when her family sent her out into the harsh world that the entire world was blind to.

Betrayed...

Forgotten...

Abandoned...

She saw him look down at the helmet as she slowly closed the door before leaving him to his quiet pain.

That once bright-eyed Pup of Vault 101 was now in a room not knowing what he'll do next.

Author's Note

Can you guess what mod it is?

Well besides that! Here you guys go the replacement to 'just a messager' and if you new don't ask about because I had written if for the frontier and we all know how that turned out to be!

So I decided a different more well like mod amoung the community though I usually use lore friendly mods like 'weapons of fallout 1 and 2' and 'assualtrons', yes their is a mod for NV adding in the best girl bots in the wasteland ADA BEST GIRL IN FALLOUT 4 I dare you to try and change my mind! But those mods that I just like tale of two wastelands is good enough and this one that I have for this version of the courier in this story. Different but unique don't you agree.

Also for the intro... I hate to say it but North Korea is going to do it someday maybe not today or tomorrow or the next day but someday.

Finally I want to say that I kinda went to put a really cool scene from a TV show I've know for awhile now and it will come around just you want good RD did a really good speech to that daredevil wanna be (No not rainbow dash I'll leave it at that).

So I might need to do some editing later though midnight need sleep!

P.S. Agent orange will not happen in this story sorry! But their will be another along with some of my classic furry stuff but no one from my Just a message story will romanced with Six here.

Note: Its now 8:44 the next day when I wrote this so... yeah did my best.
