Chapter 22: Questionable

Even a I am bad at telling who is saying the truth and not but even I can tell that you are not telling the truth, I will ask again, who are you? (Brendon)

... I ... (Janette)

I am a Synth, from the Institute, I was going to the railroad to get my memories changed to allow me to start a new life but there was an ambush from slag, he killed the escort and captured me. (Janette)

After that he was going to use me as a test for Jack, kill me and show his loyalty. (Janette)

Thank you! For not killing me! (Janette)

Live a new life, you don't need to run from your past memories by getting them removed, well, you can. But all that you experience scan be used to learn what to not and what to do to make your character. (Brendon)

If you have your memories wiped or changed you will actually not be the same you are now but its your choice. (Brendon)

Turning away, I made my way close to James and spoke.

Captain James, tell the troops we are falling back, secure all prisoners and return back to base. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir! (James)

Commander lucky, get to a Vertibird and keep track of the others flying around, if you can't find anyone matching the description told return back to base in 30 Minutes. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir! (Lucky)

Lets head off. (Brendon)

Wait! (Janette)

Janette ran over to me and the two Black Assaultrons flanking my sides pointed there weapons at her in reflex followed by the others, Janette froze in place and stopped moving right away after seeing she became the target.

I turned around and looked at Janette and spoke.

Yes? (Brendon)

Are you Infinity Guardians? I heard of you before can I join? (Janette)

Just go south from here the base is there, just sign up, the traning is hard, but not impossible. Make sure you make up your mind before you go, it will not be easy after you join. (Brendon)

My name is Janette from now on! I will start a new life as you said and learn from what I know! (Janette)

Waving, I left with the escort. Getting in the vertibird and taking off to the air, I looked around just to see if I can spot anyone and seen Janette below looking up at the vertibirds flying around to high to see but must be amazed at the sight.

As The Vertibird are flying back to base, Specter got lost in his thoughts in the mean time.

Sir! There is something flying! (Pilot)

I was looking at the ground and also noticed it a huge shadow, looking to the source and seeing that it the brotherhood of steel Blimp it's being escorted by thousands of Vertibirds Spot lights shining on the ground as the big beast flies through the sky even though the sunnis going down and the light is still shinning they used the spot lights like a notice us as for we have arrived, we then can here a loud Speaker playing on loop.

People of the common wealth! Do not interfere, Our intensions is peaceful, We are the Brotherhood Of Steel! (Captain)

Change of plan, Pilot fly to Star base. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir. (Pilot)

Getting on the radio I sent a message to the commanders

Commander Lucky, and Commander Red. (Brendon)

Sir. (Red)

Loud and clear. (Lucky)

I am heading to Star base, in the mean time you both will be in command over the Recruitment office. (Brendon)

__________

Flying over Star base, I seen settlers working in the farm and traders trading with others, people laughing and running about in the Resident area. The Buildings had increassed in size as they are now becoming even more closer to skyscrapers they are few but there.

Landing in the military Section, I got out with Captain James and the others and seen recruits moving about on the traning course that Higgins set up, I was noticed right away by all new recruits. They started talked among themselves as they watched me walk into the base and the Sentry Bots and the Assaultrons guarding did nothing.

Who is he? (?)

Don't know, must be important if he is being escorted by Assaultrons. (??)

Look at how the black Assaultrons walk, if you don't know skills you will not notice it but those those are very strong Assaultrons they are walking in a way to react to anything around them. (???)

They have every direction covered for that man? (?)

Yes and more. They probably seen us talking and planed for any attack from us like we are planning strategies against that man. (???)

Who are you? how do you know so much? (??)

I had been traveling for most of my life, walking the wasteland. You have to see the details or you will be killed. (???)

________

{War room}

Higgins talking to Preston Garvey when I walked in.

Sir! Welcome back, Was not expecting you here. (Higgins)

Hello, Higgins. (Brendon)

How is the recruits you had been training? (Brendon)

Sir, there was some sketchy ones that had to be removed, besides that there is a few very promising ones that are very smart and good at creativity thinking. They will plan in odd ways to win the battle look good for Captains if you ask me. (Higgins)

That is good, you have not seen it have you? (Brendon)

Seen what, sir? (Higgins)

The brotherhood of steel has arrived. We are going to be having even more problems to deal with. (Brendon)

Who is the brotherhood of steel? (Garvey)

They act like Solders in a way, they love to collect technology that they seem dangerous to everyone else and they know how to find things that is normally hidden. (Brendon)

They dont seem bad, if they dont use the Technology to attack Settlers. (Garvey)

That's the problem, they will threaten the Settlements for supplies even if the settlers don't, they will send someone to persuade them. It's you give supplies or have a hard time. (Brendon)

What is the plan? (Garvey)

I have the brotherhood of steel already in a plan and its being set in motion as we talk, so for now don't worry about the brotherhood of steel. I need a powerful team of Assaultrons Heroic rank, I will be calling this team Reapers, I need stronger troops over quantity. (Brendon)

How many in this team? (Higgins)

Five for now, it will take a lot of resources to get them to Heroic rank but might have a way to speed it up, the scouts found many places in sector two and I can have them clear the places and secure them. As they do that if they survive they get promoted up if any of them get destroyed or need repairing before the missions are done they will be replaced with a different Assaultron. Also send all the recruits that have passed all your tests over to the Infinity Guardians Recruitment Office, Preston Garvey you are being transferred over to the Recruitment Office get you equipment and join the Recruits when the transfer is going through you will overwatch them when they are being sent over. (Brendon)

Yes. (Higgins)

Alright. (Preston)

Higgins before the recruits leave give Preston the Military might I need to know how many troops we have all together. (Brendon)

Preston, don't let anyone know you are delivering this data, destroy it at any means if needed or everyone on the list will be killed if anyone gets there hands on that list, this is not going to be a simple transfer recruits over but hidden information in the prosses. (Brendon)

Higgins keep the base safe and the sector one like you have been as you train the next batch of Recruits. (Brendon)

Any questions? (Brendon)

There was more attacks from the Mechanist, we lost five Sentry bots from an attack but I fixed the problem so it will not happen again but still lost them, even repairing did not work the memory was destroyed. (Higgins)

We will be get revenge against this Mechanist in do time. (Brendon)

Anything else? (Brendon)

No response from anyone, Specter continued.

Alright, I will be ending it here, mark the ones that you think will be good Captains, lieutenants, and Commanders. I can look into it at the Recruitment Office. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir. (Higgins)

Stay vigilant everyone, its only going to get even more chaotic in the future starting now. (Brendon)

The people I passed coming in. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir! They have passed the strict test and they all know that after entering potentially unable to leave after entering unless strictly watched. The ones only inside the base is the following. Skilled creative craftsmen, skilled weapons experts, skilled armor crafting experts, Engineers, researchers. (Higgins)

Good, I don't need information of the inside the base being leaked out. Keep up the good work Higgins, I will be taking my leave now. (Brendon)

I left, the Assaultrons waiting outside the war room started escorting me again back up.

Inside the base has many people inside there is sounds of crafting and smithing happening all over its like a large workshop, they get resources to create and make new items and they get safety against all things that normally will kill you in the wilderness. All this is for the future, the items created will be checked and creativity is rewarded with ownership and their name will be on anything they make.

The people seeing me once again passing them was confused as they never seen any Black Assultrons as they are all Green or Silver in the base and freely walking through nobody stopped to ask.

I got in the Second Elevator that is not for the others to use and took it up, getting to the top, I made my way back out and took off in the Vertibird flying back to the Recruitment Office.

______

Arriving at the Base, its past evening the base had been fixed already and the damaged areas look like a large battle had never even took plsce.

Jade said 24 hours, that will be around 10 tonight when she wakes up. (Brendon)

The Vertibird landed at the landing pad, getting out, I made my way into the building making my way into my office, I sat down and started thinking of my next plan.

Heroic rank Assaultrons will take time, but if done right I can maximize the experience they will get to increase the speed. (Brendon)

Getting up and made my way to the map of Sector Two, I started looking at it.

Wildwood Cemetery flying Creatures this will give me information and tell me what they are first mission for them. (Brendon)

Rotten Landfill, thousands of mole rats will become a hell of a challenge to compleat this will be the second mission. (Brendon)

Old Gullet Sinkhole, if a Deathclaw is not a challenge for a Heroic Rank then what is? Third mission. (Brendon)

Irish Pride Industries Shipyard, thousands of Mirelurks, Fifth mission. (Brendon)

Relay Tower 0MC-810, centipede will be hard to fight, let's see how it will end. (Brendon)

Dark Hollow Pond, Water monster, this will be the last mission to see how they improved, if they have not got to Heroic Rank by then then I will keep adding more missions. (Brendon)

{Knock Knock.}

Come in. (Brendon)

Sir, the Wings have returned, this is the list of what they found scouting, there is a few still flying and searching if you need them they are waiting on standby. (Lucky)

Looking at the paper and seeing that there is nothing there besides some Deer and crows other flying birds, settlers.

Tell them to return to base. (Brendon)

Yes, Sir! This is the list of captured Forged Radiers. (Lucky)

27 captured Forged Radiers.

6 female that each one said they have been more of a sex slave then an actual Radier.

21 male Radiers, 17 was forced and been taken from there family farms and it was kill or be killed. 4 just enjoy killing and was having fun.

Keep them all locked up for now, get any information you can from them. Once you did wait for a specialist to check who is telling the truth and who is not only then will we have the correct answer to let anyone go after. You may leave tell captain James to come to my office. (Specter)

Yes, Sir. (Lucky)

Few seconds after Luck left Captain James and the Assaultrons with him walled in

Sir, you called. (James)

Your team named will be Reapers from now on, are the leader of the Reapers. You are to be the first Heroic rank members in Infinity Guardians, pack up everything you think you need and head to these locations. You will be doing six missions, as for the Missions that you will be doing it is up to you to make the call, but one thing is for sure.

I looked at each of the five and looked at captain James.

Once you leave to start your mission you will be unable to return until the mission is completely finished, or you are unable to continue because of too much damage taken and need repairs when that happens you are not eligible to become a heroic rank and will be replaced by one of the other 25 selected candidates. (Brendon)

Any questions? (Brendon)

No, Sir! (Reapers)

You may leave. (Brendon)

Seeing the reapers salute before they left I stood up and stretched and made my way to my room going to go to sleep as it has been a long chaotic two days abd had no sleep yet after the attack.

Walking into my room and as if on cue.

{Crack!}

Looking over and seeing the the Egg just cracked and shook, I made my way over to watch the new life be born.
