Chapter 4
1 week later:
Today Alpha Team is going to command with the President of District 13, Her name is President Coin and she’s a mean bitch.
My team must dress appropriately as this is a serious meeting.
I’m wearing a black pencil skirt that goes down to my knees and hugs my curves, a grayish purple sleeveless blouse and a pair of tan suede high heeled ankle boots.
I got all this clothes in the wardrobe of my bedroom.
I brush my hair and it goes wavy.
All the boys are wearing suit trousers and shirts.
Melanie is wearing a short sleeve navy chiffon dress with a a black peter pan collar and a pair of black ankle boots.
Charlotte is wearing a dark blue short sleeved blouse, black skinny jeans and a pir of blue high heels.
We then all leave together in a group, We see all the other teams going to command, But we’re going to command with president Coin because e we are the highest ranking and best team.
I wave at a few of them and we then make our way into the meeting room.
We greet the other soldiers that are there and we sit down at the long table.
“Hello, Team Alpha”, Coin greets.
“Hello, President”, We all greet back.
“I must say, I am extremely impressed with your progress so far”, She says with a small smile on her face.
“Soldier Boone and Vargas have trained you very well”, She says.
“I’ve called you here today because I have your very first mission for you”, She says.
“What is our mission, President?”, Cato asks politely.
“Your mission is to go to the great wasteland, The Mojave wasteland, Otherwise known as New Vegas, It is a warzone, It has many tribes and factions that are battling over different things, We need you all to stop this and get them to be allies with us in the upcoming battle with the capitol, I suggest you talk to the wealthy businessman that controls the new vegas strip, Mr Robert House, He has not been seen in decades, But he still lives in The Lucky 38 Hotel and Casino, Not one person has set foot in that building in about 50 years, I suggest you talk to Soldier Boone and Soldier Vargas as they are from the Mojave”, Coin orders.
“Thank you, President Coin”, Tyson says politely.
“Alpha Team, I am counting on you lot to make this mission work, It is a very dangerous thing to do , Do not trust anyone”, She says sternly.
We all nod.
“Oh and one last thing, You will have to travel in groups, You will travel in 2 groups of 4”, She orders.
“But we only have 7 soldiers?”, I ask.
“Here is your new soldier, Soldier Lily Fray from District 6”, Coin gestures to the girl seated 2 seats down from her.
The girl smiles and I smile back.
“You will all be leaving tomorrow at 6 A.M, Pack a rucksack”, Coin instructs.
“Soldiers, You’re dismissed”, Coin says with a salute.
As me, my team and new soldier enter the hallway we decide to pay a visit to Boone and Manny.
We make our way to the training halls and we find Boone and Manny training with Team Bravo.
They see us and immediately stop training and tell Team Delta , Which is Gale’s team , to go and lift some weights.
“Hello, Team Alpha”, They greet.
“We’re here for some tips on the Mojave Wasteland”, Cato says.
“Ah, The Mojave, Biggest warzone of this planet if you ask me”, Manny jokes.
“Well the first things you need to know is the major groups, The NCR otherwise known as the New California Republic, I’d recommend you stay on good terms with them, We were former member in the Sniper Squad, They control most of New Vegas and are the group I would support”, Manny explains.
“And then there is Caesars Legion, Their leader is Caesar and he is a mean son of a bitch, It’s basically an army of slaves and slavers, They are brutal and mean, They wear a very distinctive uniform of an old roman gladiator armor, They crucify the enemy and they are enemies with the NCR”, Boone explains.
“Then there is Mr. House, He rules the New Vegas strip and he has an army of robots called securitrons to protect himself and the strip, He is said to be over 200 years old and it’s a mystery how he has stayed alive this long”, Boone says.
“We haven’t been to the Mojave in about 3 years, And to be honest, We wouldn’t like to go back”, Manny sighs.
“Good luck out there, Alpha Team, You’re all gonna need it”, Boone says.
We salute each other and we then leave but on the way out I catch eye contact with Gale and I smile weakly back, He must of heard about our mission because the next thing he does shocks me, “Good Luck”, He mouths. I nod in thanks.
This must be a very dangerous mission by the sound of it.
But we’re a strong team, We’ll make it work.
