"Damn hell these Gecko's are literally every where!" A man shouted as gunfire shot around. "I know! I thought the NCR will help us!" Another person shouted watching one of their friends try to grab his rifle but a dynamite flew near his friend and blew, injuring him. "Dave's down! I repeat Dave's down!" The man shouted. "First of all, who are these guys! Why do they look like they came from prison!" "Well Trelawny, this is the fucking Powder Gangers. Now continue firing or else we're dead-meat." He said with confidence as a bullet almost shot his head. "Yearling! Pass me a dynamite right over there!" The man shouted while Yearling responded by saying "Alright Willy!" Yearling looked through the bag and saw the box of dynamite and threw it near Dave's body. "Ulysses! Grab one of em and throw it near that box!" Willy shouted at Ulysses and another dynamite was thrown at them, nearly hitting the both of them. "I have one question, what the hell just happened!" Ulysses shouted back at Willy. "Well you see, this is package came beyond the Mojave. The package contains a weapon that can destroy the whole Vegas so we need to keep it away from the Legion and give it to the NCR. Thats why all we just need to do now is to-" Before Willy could tell what they were supposed to do next, he was shot in his forehead. "DAMNIT!" Ulysses grunted as he took the bullets inside Willys gun. "This is pure bullshit man! We still have several packages to give and we're just near Primm!" Yearling shouted. "Well I am sorry to tell this to you Yearling." Ulysses said to him while he grabbed Willys gun and held both guns. "NO! I CANT LEAVE YOU HERE!" Yearling shouted as he lit and threw another dynamite at them.

A patrol of NCR troopers ran towards the area and shouted "NCR! Put your guns dow-" The troopers were instantly shot and blown while reinforcements coming from the east side coming from the fires of Nipton raced to help their comrades fight of the couriers. "Damn this to hell!" Yearling shouted as he grabbed the package with the letters. "Run! I will give you cover!" Ulysses said to Yearling, reloading both pistols. Just as planned Yearling ran while Ulysses tried to get their attention and successfully did. Gunfires echoed behind Yearling with some dynamite still blowing up around him. "Good job Yearling... " Ulysses said softly as he took cover and saw a couple of bullets fly above him. He glanced once again at Yearling and saw he was getting near Primm. He got up and walked backwards towards the dynamite box that was near Daves lifeless body. "FOR THE MOJAVE!" Ulysses shouted as he threw the box at them and shot it mid air using his VATS in his pip-boy. As the box blew, the powder gangers together with their reinforcements and the dynamite boxes they were holding blew up. Ulysses looked at what he did as he fell backwards due to the blast. Ulysses crawled slowly towards a radio transmitter on Willy's arm, while blood pouring out from his injures and the wounds the bullets punctured into him. "Courier 34 down... Courier 34 down... Courier 32 is on his way to Primm. Please tell courier 58 he has a letter." Ulysses said while he grabbed a stimpack from willy's pocket and stabbed himself with it. "Copy, this is Courier 58. On the way to help Courier 32 bring the package as soon as possible." A mysterious voice said through the transmitter. "W-What? Who are you? Where are you?" Ulysses asked over the radio. "A courier helping another courier. I am just near Primm." Courier 58 said and Ulysses coughed out blood and looked at Willy still running as he laid his head on a concrete brick. "Right over there! A survivor!" A NCR trooper shouted as he raced down to help Ulysses out and send him to the outpost to clean his wounds. "Finally..." Ulysses said before passing while the NCR trooper carried him.

On  Courier 58 as he jumped onto Yearling as a rocket coming a rocket launcher of a powder ganger was about to blow them up. "Come on and grab the package!" Courier 58 shouted as Yearling grabbed the package and ran inside. NCR troopers ran towards the gate and started shooting the powder ganger. Explosions continued around with a ton of gunshots. Both couriers ran towards Primm and went inside the Mojave Express. Courier 58 said as he fixed his helmet as the tape covering the right eye of the helmet. Yearling removed her helmet revealing a cute red haired blonde. She looked at Courier 58 still wearing his helmet and said "Thank you for saving me." With a soft voice. It was pure silence for awhile as she placed the package on the counter next to a destroyed eyebot, still catching rust. Courier 58 didn't show emotions. "Hello everyone! Sorry for being late! Uh... am I ruining a moment?" A man wearing farmer overalls looked at the both of them. "No sir, these are the packages." Yearling said to him. "Nash I also got this eyebot, I was wondering you can fix it." Courier 58 said and Nash looked at the both of them. "I see you got the package, so uh... here is your payment. 530,000 Caps." Nash said as he grabbed the large container and placed it next to him. "For you Courier 58, this eyebot and well where is the package or letter?" Nash asked Courier 58. "Sorry, its only a couple of letters." Courier said to him as he placed the letters on the counter. "Well 25,000 caps and we're done now right?" Nash asked them both. "Yes sir!" Yearling said to Nash, grabbing the caps and sprinted out after grabbing the caps and went towards the Mojave Outpost. Courier 58 grabbed the letter and saw it was from his hometown. It read "Dear Courier 58, we have been having problems here and your sister was among those who is lost in your area. We need your help to find them. We need your assistance. Sincerely, Brian Belfest." "Fuck... this shit again. No, I am not coming back." Courier 58 said as he grabbed a lighter before looking at another letter inside. "Kill me..." Courier 58 said before burning the letter and grabbed a jet and smoked. "I have to say this to you Courier, but. I read one of the le-" Nash said but before he could finish the sentence Courier 58 banged the counter with his fist and said "Forget, what you fucking read." He said as he looked around and said. "Why aren't you going to help your people? You have been helping the ones here but why not there?" Nash asked him but he felt he hit a nerve when Courier 58 looked at him. "BECAUSE COBBLESTONE IS LITERALLY NOW A SEX TOWN BECAUSE THE FUCKING SHERIFF HAS BEEN SELLING WOMEN TO PEOPLE AND SELLING BABIES TO OTHER PEOPLE IN THE WASTES! I SEEN THEIR BASEMENTS, MINES, AND PRISONS AND THEIR ALL WOMEN ALL STRAPPED ON A BED! I DO NOT WANT TO  REMEMBER THAT PLACE BECAUSE OF ONE THING AND THATS BECAUSE MY OLDER AND YOUNGER SISTER WERE BEING FUCKED IN THERE AND WHEN I TRIED TO FREE THEM THEY REJECTED AND STRAPPED THEIR SELVES AGAIN! IF THEY CANT BARE ANY MORE KIDS, THEY ARE SENT TO THE PIT OF FLAMES!" Courier 58 shouted as he panted heavily and grabbed a bottle of Vodka in his bag and drank. "Did you tell the NCR though?" Nash asked him trying to calm him down. "Yes, but they always rejected the it and said that place never even existed. I told them a shit ton of times Nash, they said it doesn't exist." He said as he threw the bottle at the eyebot and somehow made it work again but Courier 58 did not look back as he placed his hands in his pocket. "AGH FUCK!" Nash shouted as he ran out. Courier 58 didn't look at what was happening but when he heard a shot he jumped inside a building and took cover. Courier 58 turned around and saw the eyebot. It was loosing its antenna so was blind. "I can fix this boy out, but how..." He asked himself and looked at a wrench. "NO PLEASE! EYEBOT DONT KILL ME! IM UNARMED!" Nash shouted and saw Courier 58 gripping the eyebot by the top of the eyebot, almost like hugging hugging it. "Are you a mad man?!" Nash shouted as he saw Courier 58 about to place a new antenna. "Calm down boy." Courier 58 said to it as he placed the part in but flew out when the Eyebot moved its gun up and fired at his hand. Courier 58 shouted in pain and saw the antenna fall near Nash. "NASH GET THE ANTENNA!" The courier shouted. "Courier 6 didn't experience this when he was fixing ED-E." Nash said to himself as he threw the antenna at Courier 58. The courier grabbed it and saw where the Eyebot is moving to. He tried to hurry up to place the antenna in. He jumped out and landed on the bridge. The eyebot stopped and the Courier closed his eyes and looked down. "HEY UHH... EYEBOT? I STILL WANT TO LIVE BUT CAN YOU PUT US BOTH DOWN TO EARTH?" Courier 58 said as he saw they we're on top of the roller cooster. The eyebot nodded.

"What a ride?" Nash asked him sacrcastically. "Yeah, keep the eyebor for me. It took me a long time to fix that." He said and walked away. The eyebot gave a sad noise and the courier sighed. "Come..." Courier 58 said to it and happily followed him. He gave himself a face palm and sighed.
