The Enclave's Courier

Chapter 4

A/N:Back again, still going strong.

Searchlight Airport

Six stood at attention, alongside Arcade and the other remnants as a man in his early sixties walked towards them, two troopers in Tesla advanced power armor mk 2 followed up behind him on both the man's right and left carrying laser gatlings. The man had a look on his face that anyone could read as sign of how screwed you are. Six did everything he could to not gulp in fear as the man got closer. When the man stood in front of them all, he glared at Six.

Six:"Colonel Autumn, welcome to the Mojave sir."

Col. Autumn:"......Son, would you mind explaining to me why I shouldn't have put under arrest for going AWOL for months?"

Six:"Well Colonel, I understand that both you and Colonel Santiago weren't exactly pleased with my report, but please understand that up until recently I had amnesia, courtesy of two bullets at point blank range....as you can see by the scars."

The old Colonel looked at the scars on the young man's forehead, and he also noticed the bloodied bandage on the other side.

Col. Autumn:"And that?"

Six:"......That would be the headshot wound that allowed me to regain my memories.....sir."

Colonel Autumn stared at the Courier with an unreadable expression. Arcade was starting to sweat, wondering if the Colonel would understand or shoot his friend in the head for a fourth time. The other Remnants were either smiling, giggling like kids or showed no expression at all. Colonel Autumn then looked to the rest of the people standing with the Courier.

Col. Autumn:"And just whom are you all supposed to be?"

Judah was the first to step forward and address the Colonel.

Judah:"Sir! Judah Krieger, commander of the devil's brigade."

Then it was Daisy who spoke next.

Daisy:"Private Daisy Whitman, pilot. Glad to be back in the cockpit sir."

Doc Henry:"Doctor Henry, former cyberdog specialist and currently the medic to the devil's brigade, sir."

Johnson:"Private Johnson first class, sharpshooter, sir."

Moreno:"Private Orion Moreno, heavy weapons specialist, reporting for duty Colonel!" He says with a smile.

All at once all of the remnants snapped to attention with a salute directed to the Colonel, Six and Arcade do the same. Colonel Autumn salutes them as well before directing his gaze to Arcade.

Col. Autumn:"You... You are too young to have apart of this squad, tell me sir... Who are you?"

Arcade:"...Sir, my name is Arcade Gannon. Son of Marcus and Miriam Gannon... I'm here to do my part Colonel."

The Colonel looked at arcade for a moment before nodding his head and returning to stand in front of the Courier.

Col. Autumn:"I'll be honest, I don't know what I was expecting... certainly not a squad of special forces, even if they are nearly 20 years my senior."

Six:"I was shocked to find them myself sir, but I'm glad I did."

Colonel Autumn looked behind him as the last vertibird dropped off it's cargo and lift into the sky, before following the others back north.

Col. Autumn:"I'm assuming you have a base in mind, or do you expect us all to make something of this old airport?"

Six:"Of course not sir, I have the perfect base in mind. It's operational, fully stocked and has technology to keep it's location hidden from undesirables, the only problem is the inhabitants."

Col. Autumn:"You can tell me more on the way. You mentioned a patrol of NCR soldiers around these parts, any chance they might've seen our arrival?"

Six:"No need to worry about them Colonel, I made sure they will be kept busy for awhile before you landed, but I think it best if we moved fast, it's a long trek from here to our base."

The Colonel nods and looks to the trooper on his left.

Col. Autumn:"Get everyone ready to head out, I want us long gone before that patrolstarts heading this way, they might not have seen us but i willing to bet one of them heard us."

Tesla Trooper:"Yes Colonel."

The trooper moves on, going around spreading the word that they're moving out to the large group of soldiers. Colonel Autumn looks back to the Courier.

Col. Autumn:"Lead the way son, and you can tell me all about what you've been doing the last six months."

Timeskip, Hidden Valley

The Courier, Col. Autumn and the Devil's brigade stood outside the entrance to the brotherhood bunker. Behind them all were the Colonel's troops getting ready for the first battle of their deployment to the Mojave. Arcade was actually helping a few soldiers with their armor and gear.

Col. Autumn:"I can't believe that you somehow became a member of the brotherhood after getting amnesia, it's more believable that you're a traitor."

Six:"I understand that it's hard to believe Colonel, but I swear on my mother, this chapter trusts me like one of their own. I'll go in, deal with the security and make sure they won't be able to stop us."

Moreno:"And how would they stop us, you said they're all just above starving down there."

Six:"The elder, the paladin and the head scribe all have a code to initiate the self-destruct on the bunker if it ever became impossible for them to repell their attackers. I'll have to steal all three codes and disable the exterior security systems before calling you all in."

Col. Autumn:"....If this is some sort of trap, I will see you dead before they kill me boy. This is your one chance to prove to me to still trust you."

Six nods before entering the bunker. Once through the door he pulls out the pulse gun he got from Vault 34as he walked down the stairs going deeper into the bunker, looking at the weapon reminds him of how he and Veronica explored that hell hole of a vault together hoping that this technology would make elder McNamara see that the brotherhood needed to change only for her cries to be ignored.

Six:"All right just get in, get the codes deal with Ramos and the other security staff and everything should be golden. Nothing can throw a wrench in this."

Veronica:"Six, hey!"

Six look up from the pulse gun just as he made it down the last few steps, seeing Veronica standing next to-

Six:"Christine?"

Christine:"Surprise!"

Six:'Fuck... My... Life...'

A/N: That's chapter 4, hope you enjoyed it, this was meant to be longer but I had to change it last minute because my supposed day off has turned into a work day. God bless America and God bless the Enclave.
