[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Oct-28-00 AT 07:55AM (GMT)[p]This is part two. It is a bit later then I said but I don't think anyone was waiting desperately for the next part. Again comments questions and the such are welcome. If you want to read this and haven't read "Exploits of Fang: The Vault 13 incident pt1" Then I would suggest you read that however it may have gone down the list a bit. I'm probably gonna start on part 3 as so as I've posted this anyway ENJOY
"Vic you son of a Bitch," Cassidy remarked
"Nice to see you again Cassidy,"
"You have a way with mechanics don't you?" Cassidy asked.
"Well sorta," Vic replied
"Do you fancy making this into a door for me?" Cassidy pointed at the space that linked into the cave beyond.
Vic loosened his small rucksack that was strewn across the back of his combat armour. He pulled out some rather large cutting tools. He reached for a locker and climbed upon it. He focused the tools above him and began to cut a hole for the door to go to when open. Meanwhile Cassidy searched the lockers to find something that might fit into place to make it look like a wall whilst also keeping a keen watchful eye on the door.
"Here we are," He whispered to himself as he found a crate containing "Repairable wall tiles," He began to lift some out of place and stick them together.
"So Vic do you know what's going on around here?" Cassidy asked.
"I think the raiders who captured the place are up in their living quarters drinking." Vic replied.
"Why did you come back down here?" Cassidy continued to inquire.
"I'm not stupid you know,"
"I wasn't implying you were."
"Well actually I laid a detector here. It was an old holographic thing. I was able to see what was happening from San Fran. As soon as it became clear Cala would be coming back here I headed off. Sulik decided to stay back there."
"So you let him, Why. Come on this makes no sense"
"Hey just trust me god dammit." Demanded Vic.
"Yeah just get on with the job," Cassidy remarked.
Vic resumed the cutting and he was nearly finished. He soon finished and climbed down. He began to assemble some type of mechanism to work the door he had just cut. It took him a while but he managed to get it working. It took them many hours but they managed it. They carried the lockers to appropriate places in their new head quarters. Vic pulled a couple of bedrolls from his pack and rolled them on the floor. He had installed a key card locking system on the door. It was concealed quite nicely on the opposite side. He could remove a tile to find the slot. He was able to salvage some gear from around the vault. The raiders who now controlled the vault were not too interested in the systems of the vault at the present time. They were expecting some technical workers to come in and evaluate the potential value but that was a few days away. Vic and Cassidy did not know this but it was time for them to recapture the vault AND uncover the traitors that must be working with them. The door locked smoothly and the two enjoyed a pleasant night of sleep.
So did the prisoners in the level above except their night was ruined by worry and fear. They had no clue that Vic and Cassidy were down beneath them right then sleeping in the rocky cave.
The raiders indeed were drinking until they dropped. Most of them had. That was what gave the two so much time and also made the raiders a careless bunch of idiots.
"What's the time?" Vic asked as he woke lazily
"Time to get up," Replied Cassidy energetically jumping to his feet shotgun at the ready.
"Do we have to?" Vic asked
"Yes we do," Cassidy checked his Vault device and reviewed the positions of the raiders. "Dammit" he whispered "Still jammed,"
"Yes Boss," Vic said pulling himself up and putting on his combat armour. "So what's the plan?" Vic asked
"So Cala," Whispered Goris who was shearing the same room as her. "What do we do?" he asked
"I don't know, I-I-I haven't ever felt this helpless before," She whispered back.
At that moment a raider entered the room and picked Jedziea up by the arm of her power armour and dragged her out. She was taken down to level 3 and out into the first room where there was a group of raiders seated on chairs with weapons on their laps. Jedziea was dragged kicking and creaming over to a central platform. Her weapons were pulled from her hands and as was the main attraction her power armour removed from her body. This was where she educed the worst part of her torture. The raiders forced themselves upon her. It wouldn't have been so bad for her if they didn't all smell of cigarettes. She was publicly humiliated not the raiders could tell anyone or even think about it when she was done with them. You can only imagine the pain of being constantly raped. She would probably have been more pleased as the beatings the rest of the group would probably have. They gave her a small funny looking out fit which they immeaditely made her get on. It didn't leave much to the imagination. She was told she could wear this or nothing as she was shoved completely unarmed back into her cell. Next they pulled Goris out. He had not many possessions to be stripped of but he received a savage beating. After this all of them were pulled out in turn with all their possessions taken and then they were tortured.
Cassidy and vic decided that they could only risk leaving if they had stealth boys so they retrieved what they could and emerged from there hideout each with a card for re-entery. They went to a set of lockers that they hadn't seen the other day when they did a search of level three. Cassidy picked the lock of the first one and looked inside. The first object he found were Jedziea's bracelets. The ones he had given her for her last birthday. He continued to search the inventory of the locker.
"This is all her stuff," he declared as he looked through the collection of armour and weaponry. "Strange what some people keep on them isn't it," He stated as he removed a bag. He had found a strange collection of items after searching through it. There was a collection of condoms and necklaces and cosmetics cases. There was even a large amount of plant spikes that spore plants launched. "We might as well take this back to base," he whispered as he picked some of it out.
"Good idea," Vic agreed as he began to help his friend. When they finally had hold of all of the items, and junk in the locker they headed back to their temporary base. "I wonder what was in those other lockers?" Vic wondered aloud.
"Probably the rest of the groups gear too," Cassidy replied
Vic was startled at Cassidy's voice. It was Cassidy's usual voice but he wasn't aware that he was wondering out load. He hadn't been in a situation like this for a long time. His life had started to become dull after he had been left behind in San Fransisco for a while. He was prepped for adventure when he was recruited and rescued but that was thanks to being in the slaver's guild for ages. It was boring still it was exciting. He had gone back to just being a person. He was no longer Vic, the guy with the gauss rifle that loved to rip the hell out of slavers. He was just another citizen in a very crowded wasteland town. Now it was all beginning to come back to him. He dumped the stuff on the floor and left to go and have a longer look round the vault. Still under the protection of a stealth boy however.
"Hey where's all that gal's gear?" Asked one particularly dum raider
"What do you mean?" Said the raider who had placed it there looking in surprise to see it missing.
"Well it looks like we have intruders," said a third
A group assembled around the locker. Cassidy and Vic were approaching ready to take some of the other gear back. This was when they realised how stupid they'd been. The raiders wouldn't know the other gear was missing but THIS. They put it there so they could figure out it was gone, and they had. The raiders had their weapons ready and started patrolling slowly round the vault.
The presence crawled in, its eyes were focused on the raider unaware of him. He crept closer still shadowed somehow. The raider looked down as the thing emitted a deafening noise. The raider could only see a brief shadow. The shadow leapt forward with inhuman agility. It struck at the raiders legs crippling them and bringing them to the ground. The shadowed figure rose silently and a faint humming and then a click could be heard. Then the raider was no more, there was no trace of his body or his existence.
Cassidy stumbled, he hadn't been so scared in his life. There was a large group of raiders in front of him. Heavily armed and vicious. His weapon was puny and small but still at lest slightly deadly. Then he made the decision, to attack. He raised his weapon.
"No," said Vic stupidly alerting the raiders. They turned and looked towards where Vic and Cassidy stood. They could see shadows. The fairly intelligent leader immeaditely knew what the situation was and ordered their group to fire. A stream of fire went through the air as both Vic and bullets constantly bombarded Cassidy. Their combat armour soaked up most of the damage. But just one blow ruined everything. A small grenade was released along with the many others the soldiers were throwing but this one. This one was plasma, it overloaded their stealth boys and they feel to the ground uncloaked and helpless. The riders dragged them up to where another uncomfortable group were sitting planning. Vic was tossed in first followed closely by Cassidy with their equipment still on them. The raiders intended to get to business. Before any other dangers showed up. This was impossible however.
"Vic Cassidy," Called Jeziea as they were thrown in. However the door would not close. It stayed open despite the raiders pressing one hell of a lot of buttons. Then the furthest back raider was hit. Then another. Then a minigun and a plasma rifle thrown into the prison cell. Jeziea jumped at the sudden but unexplainable chance at hand. She raised the rifle and Marcus took the minigun. They released a spray of bullets at the raiders. This was when what saved them revealed itself. A hum came as a device clicked off. What stood before the group by the level elevator surprised them extremely?
