AN: This is a story that I wrote and the end of my seventh grade year, and to be honest I started other books and just kind of forgot it. But then in the beginning of my eighth grade year I started it again, and this lasted me all throughout it. On Wattpad, this is what, 20 parts? This is two parted with 10 chapters in the first part, and then in the second part 8. So this is 18 chapters of Fallout references. Enjoy. Long ago, the worlds three strongest countries went into a nuclear war, leaving the world deathly sick with radiation. The world was thought to be gone forever. But someone had an idea. Tara Benjamin was a regular girl living in the Gate. The Gate is an underground facility that holds healthy humans. You are born there, and you die there. Although, there is a way out. Tara's father took this way out, and too early. Tara Benjamin is shunned for her rule breaking father and she sets out for him, only wanting him to be there. On her perilous journey she meets Duke, sniper for a Metal Town. Reluctant soldier boy, he joins her. Later she meets Kris, a clown out of her era. Together, they try to fix the world with a huge band aid called murder.
