________________________

As we are walking to Concord, there was a sound off to the right it was hard to explain it was big sounding but also sounds like a snake moving through the leaves and sticks on the ground. I looked over and Jones who seen Dog Meat growled at the same direction, we both became alert and having our weapons out we moved back away from it giving us time to react once its out of the high grass. There was also a crunching noise like something is Snapping something like sticks but it's louder probably a large branch. The snapping stopped and the thing got closer as so did the noise when it got into view it stopped and turned its head to look at the three of us.

That is a Centipede! (Brendon)

Its head is at least a foot in length, and in its mouth is a Molerat bones pokeing out of the Centipede mouth, it bit down again making the snapping of its bones sound out like the Branches snapping as it swallowed it completely then moved forward it's slow and long body moved to both of us, as it got closer everyone even Dog meat moved back, and when it was all insight it was at least five meters long or even longer not enough time to measure it. It once again stopped and it stretched its many long legs and then stabbed them into the concrete road shattering and cracking it even further as it sent killing instinct to us, I felt it right away and alarm bells yelling run away quickly rang through my head, jones did not thinking twice and shot his pistol until the clip was empty.

{Bang!} {Bang!} {Bang!}

When the bullets hit some reflect off it's hard body but some entered the body sending purple blood out from the holes and it makes a Screeching yell that sent a Chill down everyone's spine, I joined in the shooting, As Dog Meat moved back and circled around.

I fired my revolver and the loud bang and more damage done attracted the Centapied attention it felt threatened, it moved quick but I was able to keep up with it.

As it charged the very ground shook below us, it ripped the ground apart like brittle rock, as it charged at me I evaded out of its path but it just turned to me, Dog meat jumped into its back and ran up it to its head and bit down onto the antenna making a loud metal against metal sound, but it was able to rip it out of its head making it scream in pain and fling its body, by revolver fired put large holes into its body, Dog meat was hit by the centapied body sending dog meat flying, as Dog Meat Rolled away from the battle Jones already reloaded his pistol and started to empty it once more, I used the time to reload my my revolver, if not for the fact Jade is filling the clips up for me it will be harder. Jade also joined in the battle making turrets around us and they all started shooting waves of bullets even the First Class Turrets can do damage so its helping.

When the bullets all hitting the Centipede it became enraged it moved faster then before but still at a speed able to keep up with but the turrets are unable to it moved to keep up and the centapied took that chance to made its way to me. Using my revolver and running backwards I put some distance but it was not enough making sure not, as it advanced I had to move around the turrets that is attacking it and they got destroyed one after the next that gave me time to get away and attack again but further away now that it is charging head on to me I used that to shot it in the head and it was the final point needed as it fell dead on the ground it's head had so many Bullet holes its body is also hit but unreasonable hard, we both froze in place wondering if it's just playing dead or its actually dead.

Master! You killed a Centipede! You gained its Experience its poison is even stronger then normal it can kill even a person in a few minutes if not treated right away good thing you did not get bit. (Jade)

The speed would have also been faster but it just finished eating so it was slower then if it was hunger. This is a Fast, Deadly, Poison enemy best keep a distance or get stronger before fighting another. (Jade)

So that is why Mole rats did not attack before. [Brendon]

Is everyone okay! (Brendon)

What the hell! That was crazy! If I was by myself it would have been eating me! (Jones)

Dog Meat limping over, Seeing Blood, it has a big gash through its side one of the Centipede legs slashed it when it Body swiped Dog Meat, Jones ran over and used one of his stimpaks on Dog Meat and the wound heals back quickly and started fixing the fur back to normal.

If I am going to have a peaceful night I need to put tank cannons as turrets just to feel at ease. (Brendon)

I can agree with you on that, when you where cheacking out if the places can be a good outpost or bases does not seem unreasonable to have set up let's get to Concord before something else arrives. (Jones)

Leaving a bit away, Jade dematerialized the Centipede adding the experience.

__

We stay on the road and make our there way to Concord as we do we kept alert at all times listen to everything from shuffling of a leaves to a snap of a stick by accidentally stepping on it, even our tap of a step on the road to make sure it was not something elae always watching and look everywhere at all times, Buildings start appearing as we get closer to Concord.

__

we have arrived in Concord but we should keep vigilant as we moved inside the town. (Jones)

I agree. (Brendon)

{Bang!} {Bang!} {Bang!}

Instinctively we both dove to the closest cover and it happened to be military sand bags, we looked at each other and listen the shots not at us after a bit of listing.

Gun Shots? (Jones)

Looking over the sand bags we see nobody, Jones waved his hand and I pulled my Sniper out, I moved up to the next sand bag and waved, Jones moved up next and further then me, there we repeat this to arrive at the wall on our right and follow the buildings line up to more of the center of Concord, as we moved we made sure to have places to take cover at any time if need be.

{Bang!} {Bang! {Bang!}

The gun shots are louder, I was before Jones after moving from cover to cover, there I peeked around the Building edge and it is the center of Concord, seeing Bandits shooting at a museum that has a down Vertibird at the top red laser shots came from the second or third floor at the bandits below.

Basterds! You keep attacking us all this time and now you feel its time to finish us off! (?)

It sure does, how much equipment we can get from you! Haha! (??)

The door at the bottom opened up and three men came out and hid behind destroyed vehicles and started sending laser pot shots at the Bandits that attempted to breach the museum, that stopped there advance and had to once again get into cover.

Jones joined in on watching and the loud yell to be heard over gun shots was enough for both of us to get an idea of what is going on.

What should we do? (Jones)

We have Stealth we can make the first attack, I will be able to get to the roof tops and use it to support you as you take them out and advance below. (Brendon)

Jones looked over again and seeing the Bandits all have there back to us he made a combat knife appear and spoke.

I can sneak up behind them, and stealthy kill them, If you make sure if I am discovered to help keep my back covered we should be able to get at least a large amount of them before noticing. (Jones)

Your going to be the one on the ground you make your choice, I will make my way up to the roof tops, see that tall building its taller then the others I will head there when you see me in position you can advance as you see fit. (Brendon)

Alright. (Jones)

There I moved up following the buildings on the right side, I was running but quietly, I made it further behind the Bandits, half way to them, I stopped and moved into a building, there I advanced inside. Making my way up the stair well its made of concrete allowing it to withstand the time of sleeping, making my way up I hear a lose rock fall and land on the floor level before me.

Slowing down and taking my time, I get to the top of the roof, there is no door and there is a large hole leading to the next floor below, there is a bandit with a Sniper on the side he was sitting on a chair and had his back to me as he kicked a rock one after the next into the hole then yawning.

Moving up to him, I used the combat I learned before and put him into a Head Lock and covered his mouth, there I made it lethal and with a quick pulling twist a Crack noise was heard his struggling body stopped and relaxed, letting go I placed his body down I was shaking but did not throw up if there was blood at that might tip me over but I cant be weak yet.

Looking at his sniper rifle to not look at the body it has no scope but it has more ammo, Jade made the body dematerialize and spoke.

Master, you have leveled up. (Jade)

Add it into rifleman. (Brendon)

Sure. (Jade)

There knowledge on how to shoot a rifle as long as it was not auto I can now do 25% more damage to my enemies allowing me to now see more critical locations in armor to hit weaker points.

After the pain lessened, I got up and into place there Jones seen me and he advanced to the Bandits furthest back. Jade took all the ammo and ready it to load my own rifle, there I aimed at the Bandits attacking and seeing the ones being attacked, they are the Minutemen. They are alive and mot in game how you arrive and they are already dead, there is one dead at the entrance but the others are still struggling and fighting back.

Looking back to Jones, he arrived at his first target, using his combat knife he stealthy grabbed the bandit and slit his throat, there he even done it well the blood did jot land on him, I felt weaker now but its not close I can still mentally prepare myself for when I need to kill again and be a more bloody ending.

The other Bandit did not seem to notice and Jones moved to the next closest one, he repeat this over and over and made his way more then half way into the Bandits. Now its getting hard, the Bandits are too close and he needs to kill two at once or be noticed, he also noticed and fell back knowing his limits, he arrived to one of the bandit he killed and picked something up and then waved to me.

There he started shooting, the Bandits did not look as they think its one of them shooting, Jones using his military training killed five others until they noticed that they are under attack from behind, there they started attacking.

I aimed at one that was having a clear shot at Jones and fired at his chest but the bullet hit him in the head, killing the bandit, he fell, fixing the scope I moved to the next, I fired at another and once again fixed the scope, working on to the next the shot hit what I was aiming at, Jones using vehicles as cover and picking up random weapons from dead bandits fired and moved.

I hear a Smashing noise and look down there three bandits broke into the building below and making there way up.

I look back to the battle and seeing the three Minutemen are being pinned down by the attacking bandits I fired at one blocking the path and this let one of them wave and the other two ran into the building he stayed behind and attacked, he used the Laser and shot at the attackers with precision they got vaporized, hearing foot steps running up, I switched to my revolver and aimed down the large hole and there the first one arrived, I fired and he had a hole blast into his body and he fell dead, the recoil on the revolver is powerful but it did that much power back. The two bandit shot bullets they missed as they used pipe guns and not accurate at all but they got close and hearing whisling of the passing bullets, I retreated back and started climbing down the building side made my way to the next roof top over.

One made their way up and seen I was not there was confused as the other one joined and looked around and looked down seeing If I jumped to my death, I already on the roof top and aimed up a bit this roof is about 10 feet down, I am behind a air conditioning unit using it as cover as I was aiming at the edge, one popped his head out and I moved to him and fired, his head exploded into past, and the other one ran over and fired down, I fired up and the bullets hitting my cover around me when I fired the gun shots stopped.

I moved to the side and aimed the sniper and seeing the Minuteman is having two bandits flanking him from his right side, I moved and aimed to them and fired, one got hit in the chest and fell dead, as the other one moved to cover and popped out only to meet a bullet. The Minutemen only realized when the second body fell and rolled down the slight hill difference at his back scared him to a jump but quickly fired at the one advancing before him.

Jones made his way closer and killed another four as he did, I moved to a different roof top this one I had to climb, and as I get to the top this one does not have a door to get up and I will be taking advantage of this, I started shooting the ones below on the rooftop attacking the one on the second or third floor of the museum. Killing 4 of them they attacked back but unable to get to me stayed put to attack, having the more accurate and higher advantage I ended them quickly.

As I finished the last one off, I moved to help Jones but lost sight of him, and even the Minutemen at the door, I see 27 more Bandits running over seems one ran to get back up. I started firing at them one at a time and they fell but I will be out of ammo before they are dead

That was when I heard a gun charge but it was mechanical not like a laser and then it started releasing the charge, as bullets was flying like a hail storm at the new Bandits that stopped there advance and took cover that was followed by a huge Boom, I looked over and seeing Jones in the power armor with a mini gun in hand using it like a rifle and swinging it around like nothing, Killing the Bandits, I Joined in and keeping them off his back as he moved in like a tank.

Jones cut the Raiders down with the Minigun as he walked bullets hit the armor and made loud dings, a vehicle exploded into a ball of fire as the doors flew off and wedged themselves into the wall and ground, the power from the blast made the metal of the vehicle become shrapnel of a huge grenade. It made a small crater under it.

{Bang!} {Bang!} {BOOM!}

Looking over to the loud noise that sounding like some beast banging on a metal door finding the sound and I watched as a metal cover was sent flying it was rectangle and heavy but that was sent flying then a large Scale clawed hand came out, seeing the hand, I forgot this beast is here, but was shocked it's huge! Bigger then the power armor standing 8 foot tall already this has to be 10 or 12 feet tall! The raiders closer to it was shocked into fright unable to move but the further ones shot it and that enraged it and started swinging its claws at the closest ones a single swing the Bladed claws sliced through them and there bodies got separated in half and flew in all different directions blood flying everywhere. The ground became a puddle of blood quickly, Jones started unloading the minigun into the Deathclaw, the Deathclaw held its clawed hands and blocked the bullets as a Raider got to close and got bit losing his head, the Deathclaw gained momentum as it charged Jones.

I shot at the head of the Deathclaw as the hard hide protected the Deathclaw from the shot but it still took damage and holes appeared all over it's body blood poured out from each one as it advanced even more, the dinosaur dragon Lizard thing charged at Jones who is backing up while shooting.

I got into a better position and aimed at the Deathclaw and shot hitting the Deathclaw in the eye, as it screamed from the pain, Jones shot into its mouth and hit the brain killing it right there, it fell dead leaving the three petrified Minutemen that came out to assist not far between both the Deathclaw and Jones as all the raiders are dead only the good guys lived another day, I packed up and made my way down and meeting up with Jones below It took a bit but arrived shortly aftet.

Brendon! Thanks! But what the hell is that thing! (Jones)

Deathclaw. (Minuteman)

Looking over to the man that is still shaking from the outcome he held his laser tightly and not looking away.

And that is? (Jones)

Death itself! (Second Minutemen)

I made my way over to the now-dead Deathclaw it's Claws and arms are shredded and its hide has to many holes to be of any use everything is unusable with so many holes.

I am going to meet up with the others inside want to join? (Jones)

Na, I will stay here and look at the Deathclaw see if I can find a faster way to kill them if I meet one. (Brendon)

Alright, be right back. (Jones)

As Jones and the three Minutemen following in a run like it will wake up and attack them I hear Jade speak.

Master, you have leveled up the Matter in the Deathclaw is more and the Deathclaw is a female as it's got an egg inside that is still alive if you kill it you can get more experience. (Jade)

Jones! Let me borrow your knife! (Brendon)

Jones that was about to get into the building stopped and handed his knife over he used his pip boy but made it look like he pulled it off his armor, after taking it, I returned to the Deathclaw.

Using the knife I stabbed it into the stomach not to far but enough, I started cutting away at the hide it was hard as hell and it made me sick as I am not used to this but I need to get mentally stronger and kept going. Layer by layer took the hide off in parts and then the meat then going deeper until a white egg appeared, seeing it, I cut around and made the hole bigger I then took the egg out it was going to be delivered soon it seems but was most likely interrupted and came out being mad that was why it attacked, seen many more eggs inside but they where destroyed with bullet holes.

I held the egg and was going to destroy stopped and thought of an idea.

It's easy to destroy things and harder to create. I like a challenge why kill when you can rise it? (Brendon)

Master! You can't be thinking of what I am thinking that you are planning on doing! That thing is dangerous! (Jade)

Thanks for the warning, I will not be taking chances either. But I will not kill the baby that has done nothing wrong just yet. (Brendon)

I took the egg and held it carefully as I turned around I walked to the Museum, I spoke to Jade.

Jade, can you store this inside and keep it alive? (Brendon)

Living thinks are unable to be Stored if you want to store it then it will be killed. (Jade)

Thanks, I guess I will be taking it with me. (Brendon)

The door opened when I arrived at the entrance and Jones and the others walked out, Jones spoke

Brendon, we are heading back to Sanctuary and I am going to help them get there I will be heading off to Boston something like a city is set up at the stadium there called diamond City. (Jones)

I see, I will come with you back to Sanctuary but I have a job for you later I once we arrive I will tell you it in detail. (Brendon)

As we are talking we are walking back to Sanctuary.

Okay... But... What is that big egg in your hands? (Jones)

It's a new pet I want to take care of. (Specter)

And that is? (Jones)

As we are walking Jones looked over and seeing the Deathclaw and its stomach cut open and similar eggs inside, he looked right at me who is looking away as if I can't see me as I whistled.

Brendon! No! You can't it is too dangerous! (Jones)

I will be fine, Mother. I will take care of it myself. You don't need to worry as it will take time to grow and by the time it is I will have it set up in a safe place to make sure it is not going to attack me right away. (Brendon)

The Minutemen and civilians following was stunned at the yell of all of a sudden but did not know what is being said as we are further away taking point.

Nothing was else was said as we walk as we had Jones in a power armor it was easier then arriving nothing pipped out to attack us along the way also.
