Chapter 705: Watching the Fireworks
House and the other New Vegas residents that were hidden in the bunker continued to observe the sky for any changes... Now that the sun had set, they could see what was happening in space far easier than before, especially without the city's buildings producing so much light pollution.
Up above, they could see the incredibly large vessels floating above the planet. And most wondered if Afton could actually do anything against such powerful foes...
Afton's daughter; Rose, continued insisting that her 'daddy' would easily beat the aliens, but even Tamia, who had more experience than most with Afton's abilities was not as confident... After all, there was a large difference between dealing with bandits, mutated creatures, and robots... Compared to fighting what amounted to a war in space.
Even Glados, who'd been keeping in contact with the Bunker, had lost contact with Afton. Becoming completely unable to contact him, even via their brain wave connection.
Soon enough though, something seemed to have changed... In the night sky over New Vegas, House and the others could spot small trails of fire headed directly for the city... Most thought it was some type of weapon and started panicking, but House knew the projectiles were most likely either meteorites or something else not intended to deal damage... An orbital drop system perhaps? Maybe the aliens were finally deciding to directly take control of the surface?
Their descent doesn't last long, and the group were eventually able to identify what they were. House's suspicions were proven somewhat correct, when they spotted the Escape Pods headed directly for the city...
On the escape pods final stretch towards the surface, a bunch of wires were shot out from their backs, a holographic net activating a few seconds afterwards and causing their speed to fall dramatically, all while keeping the occupants inside relatively unharmed.
The over a thousand pods gently land in and around New Vegas, and the residents of the bunker all watch as HUMANS step out of them!
This causes House to jump into action, having his Securitrons go around and 'persuasively' round up the strangers so he could get a handle on the situation. He didn't know why they'd come from the alien spaceship, but there were only a few things that really mattered... Were they hostile, and did they have any information about the aliens that they could share?
While the Securitrons were trying to round up the stranger (Having many difficulties due to many of the Psykers not speaking English), Tamia's voice suddenly alerted everyone else to another thing happening in the sky...
The largest ship of the three floating above the Earth had started moving rather erratically, and they all watched as it suddenly opened fire with its gigantic laser onto one of its allies.
"Yeah! Go Daddy!" Rose suddenly shouts, causing the others around her to crook a brow and begin wondering if Afton really was responsible for it.
They continued to watch as the ship began fighting with the last remaining one, eventually crashing into it and splitting it cleanly in two. With that, a massive explosion occurs, though, it takes a couple minutes for the sound to reach them.
The explosion spreads through the sky, temporarily creating a mini-galaxy for a few minutes, before the violent energies finally dissipate.
Then, the mothership abruptly turns and starts flying in a radon direction, slowly getting closer to Earth. No one was sure what it was doing, but before it was able to get over the horizon, another explosion rang out, this time on mothership...
A chain reaction seems to occur due to it, many hundreds of thousands of similar-sized explosions drawing glowing lines across the mothership... And soon enough, the event reaches its climax, the blast of energy radiating out and somehow increasing the gravity of the ship... The metal exterior of the mothership folds inwards, seemingly sucked into some invisible black hole in the centre of it.
The radiated energy snaps back and converges on the point, releasing the largest explosion yet...
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!*
The mothership hadn't yet entered the atmosphere, but the sound of the explosion caused everyone's ears to ring due to it, even those in the bunker had to cover their ears. Additionally, the Psykers on the surface were caught off guard by a sudden wave of heat that passes through the area.
Any uncovered skin is scolded and burnt, but it doesn't last long enough to cause any permanent harm...
As for the ship that just exploded? Despite most of it being ground down into fine powder after it imploded, many huge pieces of metal and machinery were now plummeting towards the Earth... Some of these were actually more dangerous than your typical meteor, due to the fact that the material that composed them was durable enough to not burn up in the atmosphere.
House immediately orders everyone to get into the bunker, forcing the Securitrons to drag all the willing psykers inside so he could hunker down and wait for the eventual disaster that was about to strike...
He knew the amount of material that was descending would cause catastrophic effects once it touched down, and needed to get people to safety before that happened... He needed to employ the bunkers more drastic protective measures in order to make certain of their survival.
Some of the Pskyers refused to be coerced by the Securitrons, but there wasn't much House could do about that, instead electing to leave them behind so they wouldn't be a danger for the others in the bunker.
House himself could speak a number of languages, though, he was quite rusty since there was no need to really speak them... He'd have to brush up on his studies via the library of old world knowledge he'd kept safeguarded.
