With a nod of gratitude, Sico and Nora thanked Kessler for her hospitality before continuing their exploration of Bunker Hill, their encounter with the Mayor opening up new possibilities for their mission in the Commonwealth.

After an hour of exploring the bustling marketplace of Bunker Hill, Sico and Nora regrouped with their team at the main square as planned. They gathered around, eager to share their findings and purchases from their time spent interacting with the various merchants and traders.

Sico and Nora took turns recounting their experiences, detailing the valuable resources and information they had acquired during their exploration of Bunker Hill.

Sico: "We managed to secure a supply of ammunition and medical supplies from one of the merchants. They also shared some useful information about recent activities in the area."

Nora nodded in agreement, adding her own contributions to the discussion.

Nora: "In addition, I spoke with a trader who had some spare parts we could use for equipment repairs. They also mentioned a potential contact who might have more information about a nearby settlement."

The team members listened attentively, impressed by the range of resources and information Sico and Nora had gathered during their time at Bunker Hill. They eagerly exchanged their own experiences and findings, each contribution adding to the collective knowledge of the group.

After Sico and Nora finished sharing their experiences, Sico turned to the team and began to speak about their encounter with the Mayor of Bunker Hill, Kessler.

Sico: "I also had a conversation with the Mayor of Bunker Hill, Kessler. She was quite welcoming and offered her assistance to us. Kessler mentioned that Bunker Hill is known for its thriving trade network and diverse array of merchants, which could prove to be valuable resources for us in the future."

The team members nodded, acknowledging the significance of their interaction with Kessler and the potential opportunities it presented for their mission.

Sico continued, summarizing the information shared by Kessler about Bunker Hill and its role as a central hub for trade in the Commonwealth.

Sico: "Kessler assured us that Bunker Hill is at our service and encouraged us to explore the marketplace and speak with the merchants. She mentioned that if we need anything else, we shouldn't hesitate to ask. It seems like Bunker Hill could be a valuable ally for us moving forward."

After summarizing their encounter with Kessler, Sico turned to Nora with a thoughtful expression.

Sico: "Nora, what do you think about talking to Kessler about the possibility of forming a more formal alliance? Bunker Hill could be a valuable ally for us, and having their support could strengthen our position in the Commonwealth."

Nora nodded in agreement, considering Sico's suggestion carefully.

Nora: "I agree, Sico. Establishing a formal alliance with Bunker Hill could provide us with additional resources and support when we need it most. It's definitely worth exploring."

Sico nodded, pleased with Nora's response.

Sico: "Alright, let's make arrangements to speak with Kessler about the possibility of forming an alliance. We'll discuss our mutual goals and how we can support each other moving forward."

With their decision made, Sico and Nora turned their attention to making arrangements to meet with Kessler and discuss the potential alliance, recognizing the importance of forging strong alliances in their mission to protect and rebuild the Commonwealth.

Sico and Nora made their way to the gates of Bunker Hill where they were greeted by Kessler, who stood watch alongside the guards. Her welcoming smile conveyed warmth and openness as she approached them.

Kessler: "Welcome back, Sico and Nora. It's good to see you both again. How can I assist you today?"

Sico returned the greeting with a nod of appreciation.

Sico: "Thank you, Kessler. We appreciate your hospitality. We wanted to discuss the possibility of forming a more formal alliance between the Minutemen and Bunker Hill. We believe that working together could benefit both our communities."

Kessler listened attentively, her expression thoughtful as she considered Sico's proposal.

Kessler: "An alliance, you say? That's an interesting proposition. Let's discuss this further. Follow me to my office, and we can talk in more detail."

Sico and Nora followed Kessler through the gates of Bunker Hill, their footsteps echoing against the bustling sounds of the trade hub. As they made their way to Kessler's office, they couldn't help but admire the organized chaos of the marketplace, where merchants and traders conducted their business with fervor.

Upon reaching Kessler's office, they were greeted by a cozy yet functional space adorned with maps, charts, and various documents. Kessler motioned for them to take a seat as she settled behind her desk, ready to delve into the discussion about the potential alliance.

Kessler: "Please, have a seat. Let's talk about this alliance you propose. What are the specifics you have in mind, and how do you envision our collaboration?"

Sico and Nora exchanged a glance before Sico began to outline their vision for the alliance, highlighting the mutual benefits it could bring to both the Minutemen and Bunker Hill. They discussed potential areas of cooperation, such as trade, defense, and information sharing, emphasizing the strengths of each community and how they could complement one another.

Kessler listened attentively, nodding in agreement as she considered their proposal. She asked insightful questions and offered her own insights, showing a genuine interest in exploring the possibilities of the alliance.

After Sico and Nora presented their vision for the alliance, Kessler listened attentively, nodding in agreement as she considered their proposal. However, before she could fully accept the alliance, she leaned forward with a serious expression.

Kessler: "Your proposal for an alliance is intriguing, but before we proceed, there's a matter that requires urgent attention. We have a raider problem here at Bunker Hill that needs to be addressed."

Sico and Nora exchanged a concerned glance, urging Kessler to continue.

Kessler continued, her voice tinged with urgency: "In the past, we've been able to keep the raiders at bay by paying off Judge Zeller and his gang. They've left our caravans and the town alone in exchange for a sum of caps. However, recently, Zeller has become increasingly aggressive. He's been demanding more money, and even after we complied, he's been attacking our caravans regardless. It's clear that he's become a significant threat to Bunker Hill."

Kessler paused, her expression grave as she looked to Sico and Nora for a response.

Kessler: "I need your help to discreetly eliminate Zeller and his gang of raiders. If we're to form an alliance, it's imperative that we eradicate this threat once and for all. Will you help us deal with this raider problem?"

Sico and Nora exchanged a determined look, understanding the gravity of the situation. They nodded in agreement, affirming their commitment to assist Bunker Hill in eliminating the raider threat.

Sico: "We'll help you, Kessler. Consider it done. Zeller and his gang won't be a problem for Bunker Hill anymore."

Kessler nodded with gratitude, acknowledging Sico and Nora's commitment to helping Bunker Hill deal with the raider threat.

Kessler: "Thank you, Sico and Nora. Your assistance means a great deal to us. Judge Zeller and his gang are currently holed up in the East Boston Preparatory School, located due east of Bunker Hill, across the water and just north of Boston Airport. It's a sizable building with three floors, and it can house anywhere from a dozen to 30 raiders, depending on their numbers at the time."

Sico and Nora exchanged a determined glance, mentally preparing for the upcoming confrontation with Zeller and his gang.

Sico: "Understood, Kessler. We'll make our move on the East Boston Preparatory School and take out Zeller and his gang. With your help, we'll ensure the safety of Bunker Hill."

Nora: "We'll coordinate with our team and move out as soon as possible. Together, we'll eliminate the raider threat and secure the area for Bunker Hill."

With a sense of resolve, Sico and Nora pledged to assist Bunker Hill in dealing with the raider problem, recognizing that it was a crucial step towards solidifying their alliance and ensuring the safety of both communities.

After pledging their assistance to Kessler in eliminating Judge Zeller and his gang of raiders, Sico and Nora took their leave from Kessler's office. They made their way back to the outskirts of Bunker Hill where their team, led by MacCready, was waiting for them near their vehicles.

As they approached, Sico and Nora briefed the team on the situation and their plan to deal with the raider threat.

Sico: "Alright, everyone. Here's the deal. Bunker Hill is facing a serious raider problem, and they've asked for our help in taking out Judge Zeller and his gang. They've been extorting Bunker Hill for caps and attacking caravans despite payment."

Nora: "We've agreed to help eliminate Zeller and his gang discreetly to ensure the safety of Bunker Hill and solidify our alliance with them. It won't be easy, but it's necessary."

MacCready nodded, his expression determined as he listened to the plan.

MacCready: "I'm with you, Sico. Raiders are my specialty. Just tell me where they are, and I'll make sure they regret crossing Bunker Hill."

The rest of the team nodded in agreement, ready to carry out the mission.

Sico: "Alright, let's gear up and move out. We'll strike at nightfall when Zeller and his gang are least expecting it. Stay sharp, everyone. This won't be an easy task, but it's necessary to ensure the safety of Bunker Hill."

With their plan set, Sico, Nora, MacCready, and the rest of the team prepared to embark on their mission to eliminate Judge Zeller and his gang of raiders, knowing that the success of their mission would be crucial in securing the alliance with Bunker Hill and protecting the Commonwealth.

As the team geared up and prepared to move out, Sico reiterated the location of their target.

Sico: "Our target, Judge Zeller and his gang, are holed up in the East Boston Preparatory School. It's located due east of Bunker Hill, across the water and just north of Boston Airport. The school is a sizable building with three floors, and it can house anywhere from a dozen to 30 raiders."

Nora nodded, emphasizing the importance of caution and coordination.

Nora: "We'll need to approach the school carefully and be prepared for anything. Zeller and his gang are likely to be armed and dangerous, so we can't afford any mistakes."

MacCready chimed in, his voice filled with determination.

MacCready: "Don't worry, Sico. We'll get the job done. Just point us in the right direction, and we'll take care of those raiders."

With their plan in place and the team ready for action, Sico led the way as they set out towards the East Boston Preparatory School, determined to eliminate the raider threat and ensure the safety of Bunker Hill. The night would be long and dangerous, but they were prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead in their mission to protect the Commonwealth.

After two hours of navigating through the dark and treacherous streets of East Boston, Sico and his team finally arrived at the East Boston Preparatory School. The imposing three-story building loomed ahead, its windows dark and foreboding against the night sky.

Sico gestured for the team to gather around as they prepared to approach the school.

Sico: "Alright, everyone. We've arrived at the East Boston Preparatory School. Remember, our objective is to eliminate Judge Zeller and his gang of raiders. Stay alert and keep your weapons ready."

Nora and MacCready nodded in agreement, their expressions focused and determined.

Nora: "We'll split into teams and approach from different sides of the building to catch them off guard. Let's move quietly and swiftly."

Sico surveyed the area and devised a plan for the assault on the East Boston Preparatory School.

Sico: "Nora, you and I will lead the first team with 10 militia members. MacCready, you take the other 10 militia members and lead the second team. We'll approach from different sides of the building to catch them off guard. The remaining 10 militia will stay here to protect our vehicles."

Nora and MacCready nodded in understanding, ready to execute their respective roles in the operation.

Nora: "Understood, Sico. We'll coordinate our movements and maintain communication throughout the operation."

MacCready: "You got it, Sico. We'll cover your backs and make sure those raiders regret messing with Bunker Hill."

With the teams assigned and their plan in motion, Sico and Nora led their respective groups towards the East Boston Preparatory School, their weapons at the ready as they prepared to confront Judge Zeller and his gang of raiders. The tension in the air was palpable as they approached the darkened building, knowing that the success of their mission depended on stealth, coordination, and decisive action.
