The wasteland... A desolate place darkened by the shadows of a dead civilization. There are no heroes, only survivors. This is the story of one man's quest to find happiness. The perfect Nuka-Break... | |
Fallout: Nuka Break | |
The trio continue to trek the Wasteland. Rummaging through the bags of the raiders they killed in the previous episode, they find nothing of value. | |
Scarlett and Ben throw the bags away. | |
Ben | Any good? |
Twig | (dumps bag) No. Nothing at all. |
Ben | (picks up Twig's bag and rummages through it) Y'know, I find it hard to believe that anyone this could far out not have anything on them. That's just rude. |
Scarlett | Probably because Twig is a moron and the only thing is ever looks for is NUKA-COLA! |
Ben | (takes out a folded piece of paper from the bag) Well there's a lot to do with it. But... (opens the fold, examines it) Scar! |
Scarlett and Twig look at Ben. | |
Ben | You should probably see this. |
Scarlett slowly walks over and takes the paper, examining it. Her brow furrows and she seems slightly distressed at what's in it. | |
Scarlett | Shit... |
Twig | (walking over) What's that? |
Scarlett gives Twig the paper and he takes a look as well. | |
Ben | That's probably why we were attacked. |
The piece of paper is a bounty note for Scarlett. A picture of Scarlett is on it. The note dictates... Slave formally owned by Leon Swallow has been spotted around the New Vegas areas with two companions: a Ghoul and a Vault Dweller. Reward: 200 caps | |
Cut to a slideshow. | |
To understand their predicament, one must understand Scarlett's unique situation. Once a slave to Caesar's Legion, she was bought by a man by the name of Leon Swallow. While being transported from Boulder City back across the Colorado River, their escorts sought refuge from the oppressive wasteland sun in a cave. It was here that fate led Twig and Ben where they stumbled upon the group. A firefight ensued. In the confusion, the trio managed to make their escape. Now, hunted by the Legion, they find themselves on the wrong end of a very sharp spear. | |
Cut back to Twig examining the drawing... | |
Twig | O-ok, wait. Who has time to learn how to draw? |
Scarlett | W-what? Twig... |
Twig | I mean, w-we're in a world full of mutants and robots... |
Scarlett | Please stop. |
Twig | ...and people killing each other over caps, and this guy learns how to draw? |
Scarlett | Twig! Do you think that this is a game? That this is fun for me? |
Twig is speechless. | |
Ben | Well, look on the bright side. It's two-hundred caps. |
Twig | How is that a bright side, huh? |
Ben | It used to be a hundred-and-fifty. That means we're movin' up in the world. See, if that keeps up, we're gonna have some real hunters comin' after us. |
Twig | Ben... |
Scarlett puts down her gun and fits her gloves in place. | |
Ben | Hardcore, cold-blooded murdering bastards! They could be anywhere! |
Twig | Scar? |
Ben | Or anyone. |
Twig | Scar, no--! |
Scarlett punches Ben across the face. He falls down in a heap. | |
Ben | Ugh! Owww... |
Scarlett picks up her gun and starts to walk away. Twig offers his hand, but Ben doesn't take it. | |
Ben | I got it... |
He uses his shotgun as a crutch as he gets up, muttering incoherently to himself. Scarlett stops and sighs. | |
Scarlett | Sorry, Ben. |
Ben | Ahh, I had it comin'. |
Scarlett | Let's just find your friend, ok? |
Twig | Scar, I'm sorry, ok? |
Scarlett | (waves dismissively) Yeah, it's fine. It's ok, Twig. Being mad at you is like being mad at a puppy: it's just too dumb to know any better. |
Twig stares and sighs to his chagrin. Scarlett turns around and starts patting her lap at him. | |
Scarlett | (calling a dog) Come on, boy. Come on... Look at you, come on... |
Twig give her a look and follows. | |
Scarlett | Good boy... |
The day passes, and an eagle caws overhead. The trio continue to walk. Scarlett tries to drink from a bottle of water, but it's empty. | |
Scarlett | Shit... (to Ben) You said we would be there by now. |
Ben | We are. I know where we're going. |
Scarlett | What does that even mean? |
Ben | It means... that I'm not lost, and I know, where, we're going-- |
Scarlett | I never said we were lost.You said we were gonna be there by now... |
Twig | (lagging behind, stops) Ugh... |
Scarlett | ...and, you're the one who said you said we'd be there by now because if you did...! |
Twig catches his breath. As Scarlett and Ben continue to argue, a mirror's glare shines on Twig's face. Trying to shield his eyes from it, he catches a glimpse of a settlement in the distance. | |
Twig | Hey, hey guys! |
Scarlett and Ben continue to argue. | |
Twig | Hey GUYS! |
Scarlett | -I just wanted to know when we're gonna be there... |
Twig | HEY, GUYS!!! |
His shout echoes. | |
Scarlett | What!? |
Ben | (simultaneously) What!? |
Twig points to the direction of the settlement. | |
Twig | Is that it? |
The two turn and see it. | |
Ben | Told you we weren't lost. Heheh... |
Scarlett | Dude, you're an asshole! |
Ben | I know. |
They start walking. | |
Twig | Hey, wait- wait up! WAIT! |
After a while, they reach the gates of what looks to be a ghost town. The sign above says "Eastwood". They walk across the dilapidated shacks. | |
Twig | Eastwood, huh? Kinda empty. |
Scarlett | Kinda really empty. |
Ben sighs as he looks around. | |
Twig | (calling out) Hello? |
They immediately get surrounded by men in cowboy hats, cocking shotguns on the roof. A bunch more flanks them in the back and front, some wielding pistols. A man wearing a large, black top hat. The sound of his steel-toed boots echoed on the wood as he stepped out of the shack and came towards them. | |
Scarlett | Well, |
The trio drop their weapons and raise their hands. | |
Scarlett | Shit. |
Mayor Conners | (tsks-tsks) Such a dirty word from such a pretty mouth. |
The scene cuts back from the Eastwood sign. | |
