"WHY the hell are we headed East?" the woman screamed again. Corey was almost to teh point of slinging her over his shoulder and just carrying her.
"Because I've never been East," Corey replied. His red-painted armor dulled the bright sun that blinded the woman.
"Nobody has. Everyone that's gone East has never come back. They all died," she told him. The cat meowed.
"Maybe they found something they liked and decided to not come back," Corey suggested. The woman growled.
"I'm still in opposition."
"You want to go back? Fine. More food and water for me and the cat."
"You're a god dammed Brother!" she shouted, using his status of self-appointed Sargeant in teh Brotherhood against him. Corey wasn't even sure if it was an actual rank in the Brotherhood of Steel.
"And you're a Sister. A whiney one at that. Now shut up, save your saliva, and walk."
They continued walked when she said,
"Why do we even have to walk?" Corey stopped.
"Oh, I'm sorry, should I have stopped and asked one of the super mutants for one of their trucks?" he retorted. She skoffed again. Corey continued walking.
"Mreow!" the cat meowed.
"Don't worry, I won't let her eat you. I suppose you need a name. What about...Julius?" Corey said.
"You don't even know if it's a boy."
Corey picked teh cat up and showed the cat its underside.
"Is it a boy?"
"I hate you."
"Is it?"
"YES!"
"FINE. Then its name is Julius. Speaking of names, what's yours?" Corey asked, not looking at her.
"Alicia."
"Corey."
"Pleased to make your acquaintance."
"Likewise."
They walked for another hour. Alicia walked up next to Corey.
"Do you know what happened?" she asked.
"Not really. It was sudden. These Super Mutants just attacked, waving the Master's banners. They killed everyone, I found you unconscious. I ahd you placed somewhere safe and led the Cadets into battle after finding this red armor. We got our asses kicked and I fled with you, then I found this cat, and so here we are."
They continued walking a little bit more.
"East...Why didn't we just head to the nearest Brotherhood outpost?" she asked.
"I don't know. Impulse. Never been East, wanted to see it."
"It's just a radioactive dustbowl..."
"We don't know that."
"I don't want to take chances."
"Then turn back."
Alicia was silent for a while.
"I don't want you to wind up getting your armor being stolen by some looney who might raise some Fascist army or something."
"Quite the imagination."
"I read a lot."
"Meow!"
Another few minutes passed by.
"Are you even armed?"
"Are you capable of keeping your mouth shut?"
She looked to the ground. There was an awkward pause.
"Yes, I am. I've got a Turbo Plasma Pistol and enough ammo to fuel a car." Alicia nodded.
"Meow!"
"Because I've never been East," Corey replied. His red-painted armor dulled the bright sun that blinded the woman.
