David finished his whiskey and decided to walk around. He came to brimstone, and seeing whores on the stage, a look of disgust on his face. The enclave were facists and genocidal maniacs, but they at least had some decency. He thought it was a disgrace that people did this for a living and that other people made them do this. Just then, he saw Brad run out. He followed him, but was interrupted by a a female whore literally throwing herself on him.
"Looking for a good time,baby?",She said, a smile on her face. He could tell from her face she was a drug addict.
David replied,"Not right now, but I'll see you later."
He left, hoping to see Brad, but he was nowhere to be seen. He made his way to freeside. He saw Brad staring at an empty street alley. He came up behind him and said,"Hey kid, did those whores being on that stage upset you or something? I'm sure its just a dayjob or something, she seems to focused to be a whore. I don't know why your so upset. Stuff like this has been going on here since pre-war. You've been here longer than me, so how your....wait, your one of those Great Khans aren't you?"
David expression softened and he said,"So what, you spend all your life with them, and now your exposed to a world bigger than red rock. I know the feeling, I used to live in a place called Raven Rock with some very bad people. I even have a tattoo."
David took off his jacket, and then his black T-shirt. On his back, a winged grim reaper, the words 1st Infantry Division, Alpha Squad above its head. Below it on a scroll of paper, were the words REAPER OF EDEN. He put his clothes back on, and said to Brad,"Thats all I'm telling you. And don't give up on that girl. A job like that has gotta be distressing, so she might need support. Failing that, you can always pay her."
He smiled and walked in the direction of mick and ralphs. He then turned a final time, and said,"In case your wondering how I found out you were a great khan, your boots are covered in red dust. Dosen't take a rocket scientist to find out where you came from."
David then left Brad and made his way to Mick and Ralphs. The Khan was the frist person years to see his tattoo, and he hoped he didn't ask anymore about it. David had done some bad things to earn it, and he didn't want to talk about it. He entered the shop, walking up to mick and ralphs."So boys", He said."Got anything new for me?"
Mick turned to him, and said,"Hey David, I got this US army kit designed for the Chinese marshlands. It comes with a combat knife, sleevless jacket. Pretty Much just some clothes, a couple of ration packs and a knife. How much are you offering for this?"
David replied,"I have 40 caps."
Mick butted in and said,"40 caps it is", and handed David the kit.
David left and looked at it. The knife was blunt, the ration packs were 200 years old and half eaten, and the jacket was a bit Tatty. He took off his jacket. The last remnant of his past life apart from his pistol, he threw it in a nearby oil drum fire. He put on the jacket, sheathed the knife and made his way back to gommorah. He had come for equipment and had ben scammed into a 200 year old piece of outdated equipment. The kit had probably come with combat armour, but it seemed mick had sold that. David just glad to be in something that wasn't going to get him killed by the NCR. He entered the strip and then Gommorah.
