Cait: “Alright, I’ve had enough o’ you! Come get some of this.”

Sole stood beside her, grinning, ball bat in hand. “You take the ones on the left, and I’ll take the ones on the right?”

She hefted her shotgun a little higher. “Agreed. Let’s fuck these guys up.”

The Gunners came forward, and Cait made sure they were introduced to the business end of her shotgun. Bodies dropped like flies, and together, her and sole laughed as the carnage splayed out around them. Blood coated her face, coated her hands, and none of it was hers. Not for a while, at least. Not until the sniper caught her calf. She collapsed, and another bullet sank into her chest, and she toppled to the side with a shriek, squeezing her eyes closed.

She was going to die. At least this was different than what she’d always imagined. At least this wasn’t a psycho overdose or a last losing battle in a ring.

“Cait!” Sole was by her side, rolling her over so she could stare at the sky. It was so blue today, not a cloud in sight.

“Well.” She laughed a little, her own blood speckling her lips. “It’s better than anything else I thought I’d get.”

“What? Cait, you’re delirious. I’m going to-”

“Nah, I’m not delirious. I’m sayin’ I never thought I’d get a blue sky and a friend in my last moments. I thought all I’d get was a boot to the face or some dingy bar, maybe a back alley if I was lucky. But this, this is nice.”

“You’re not going to die, Cait. I won’t let you.”

She waved a hand. “Too late for all o’ that. It’s over. I’m just glad that I managed to do somethin’ decent before I finally bit the bullet. Made a friend, helped some people. You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me, y’know.”

“Cait, please-”

“Do ya think there’s an afterlife?” She stared up at that endless blue. Calling to her. Welcoming her. “Do ya think there’s something after this?”

They didn’t answer, so she did. “There’s gotta be, right? It can’t- It can’t just end. I can’t just stop.”

“There is.” Sole’s voice was broken, a mirror dropped on a concrete floor. “There is and you’re going to get there and get everything you didn’t get in this life.”

“Do ya think my parents are there?”

“Not if you don’t want them to be.”

She shook her head. “No, I…”

“What is it?” They shook her gently. “Cait?”

Cait was no longer there.

Codsworth: “Well, I say! Such a rude bunch.”

Sole laughed, peering over their shoulder to get another look at the sentry bot that seemed to have lost track of them. “I agree. Is there no such thing as manners these days?”

He hummed in a way that was clearly displeased. “It would appear not, I’m afraid. This one seems to be the type to leave the water bottles lying about willy-nilly. No regard for any sort of decorum in the slightest.”

“Well.” Sole shot him a mischievous grin. “I think we’ll have to teach him a lesson, don’t you?”

“Right behind you, mum/sir.”

They charged out from behind the wall, screaming bloody murder, and he followed as fast as he could, flamethrower powered up and saw blade already spinning. He dove for the other robot, blade cutting into its hull. The flames left dark scorch marks in the paint, and he laughed.
