Sico expressed his gratitude to Hancock for his assistance before taking his leave, confident that Hancock and his team would be able to provide the necessary support for the project.

As Sico made his way back to the Minutemen HQ, he couldn't shake the thought that having two elevators for access to the underground facility would be even more beneficial. The redundancy would provide an added layer of access point and reliability, ensuring that access to the facility could be maintained even in the event of a malfunction or emergency.

Sico decided to discuss this idea with Sturges and the rest of the team overseeing the construction project. He recognized that implementing two elevators would require additional resources, but he believed the added safety and convenience would be worth the effort.

So Sico decided to see Sturgest at the Science Department, after arrived at the Science Department where Sturges and his team were hard at work digging the access point for the underground facility at the room that will be the access point. Approaching Sturges, who was overseeing the excavation, Sico shared his idea of installing two elevators for access to the facility.

Sico: "Sturges, I've been thinking about the access to the underground facility. What do you think about installing two elevators instead of one? It would provide redundancy and ensure that access is maintained even if one elevator experiences a malfunction."

Sturges paused in his work, considering Sico's suggestion. He recognized the potential benefits of having two elevators for added reliability and safety.

Sturges: "That's actually a brilliant idea, Sico. Having two elevators would indeed provide redundancy and ensure continuous access to the facility. It might require some adjustments to our plans, but I believe it's worth exploring."

Sico nodded, pleased that Sturges was receptive to the idea. He knew that implementing two elevators would require additional resources and planning, but he believed it was a worthwhile investment in the long-term security and functionality of the facility.

After discussing the idea of installing two elevators with Sturges, Sico felt satisfied with the progress of the project. He bid farewell to Sturges and his team, knowing that they would continue their work diligently.

Leaving the Science Department, Sico headed straight to the Scavenging Department to meet with Hancock again. He found Hancock engrossed in reports about scavenging activities, but he quickly caught his attention.

Sico: "Hancock, I have another request for you. We're planning to install two elevators for access to the underground facility we're building. I need you and your team to find another elevator and all the necessary materials for its installation."

Hancock looked up from the reports, intrigued by Sico's request.

Hancock: "Sure thing, Sico. I'll get my team on it right away. Finding another elevator shouldn't be a problem."

Sico nodded appreciatively at Hancock's swift response.

Sico: "Thanks, Hancock. Please let me know as soon as you and your team are ready to start searching for the elevators. I'd like to join you on this mission."

Hancock grinned, understanding Sico's desire to be hands-on with the task.

Hancock: "Will do, Sico. I'll give you a call as soon as we're ready to head out. It'll be good to have you along."

With their agreement settled, Sico bid Hancock farewell and made his way back to the Minutemen HQ. He was eager to continue overseeing the progress of the project and ensuring that everything was on track for the construction of the underground facility.

The next day, Hancock paid a visit to Sico at his office in the Minutemen HQ. Sico welcomed him in, eager to hear about the progress of the elevator search.

Sico: "Hey, Hancock. Good to see you. Are you guys ready on the elevator search?"

Hancock grinned, indicating that he had positive news to share.

Hancock: "Hey, Sico. Yeah, my team and I are all set to start searching for the elevators. We've got our transport and equipment ready and a few leads to follow up on."

Sico nodded, pleased with Hancock's readiness to commence the search.

Sico: "That's great to hear, Hancock. I appreciate you and your team taking on this task."

Sico considered the urgency of the task and decided to join Hancock and his team on the elevator search to ensure everything went smoothly.

Sico: "Okay, Hancock, I'll join you and your team shortly."

Hancock: "Okay Sico, we will be waiting for you at the Scavenging Department."

Sico quickly gathered his essentials and made his way to meet Hancock and his team.

Upon arriving at the Scavenging Department, Sico was greeted by the sight of five trucks, thirty-five scavengers, fifteen militia members, and Hancock, who was waiting for him with a determined expression.

Hancock: "Hey, Sico. Glad you could join us. We're all set to head out and start searching for the elevator."

Sico nodded, impressed by the size of the team assembled for the mission.

Sico: "Thanks, Hancock. Let's get going. Time is of the essence."

With everyone prepared and ready to go, Sico and the team set out on their mission to find the elevator needed for the underground facility. They knew that success would require teamwork, determination, and resourcefulness.

As the convoy of trucks and scavengers ventured out from Sanctuary, they scoured the surrounding areas in search of a suitable elevator. Their journey took them through abandoned buildings, industrial sites, and scrapyards, each location holding the potential for their quest.

Hancock led the team with confidence, his experience in scavenging proving invaluable as they navigated through the terrain. Sico observed the meticulousness of the scavengers as they meticulously inspected each potential site, searching for any signs of salvageable elevators or parts.

After several hours of searching, they finally stumbled upon an old office building that showed promise. The scavengers quickly sprang into action, spreading out to explore every corner of the building while the militia members stood guard, ensuring their safety.

After several hours of searching, they finally stumbled upon an old office building that showed promise. The scavengers quickly sprang into action, prepare to explore the building while the militia members stood guard, for ensuring their safety.

As Sico and Hancock led the scavengers inside the building, they were immediately met with an unsettling sight – signs of feral ghoul activity. The eerie silence was punctuated by the faint sound of shuffling footsteps echoing through the corridors.

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Sico and Hancock quickly signaled for the scavengers to prepare for a potential confrontation. The scavengers tightened their grips on their weapons, ready to face whatever dangers lay ahead.

As they ventured deeper into the building, the tension mounted with each step. Suddenly, a group of feral ghouls emerged from the shadows, their ghastly forms lunging forward with primal aggression.

Without hesitation, the scavengers sprang into action, engaging the feral ghouls in a fierce battle. Sico and Hancock fought alongside them, their weapons striking true as they worked to repel the ghoul threat.

The fight was intense and chaotic, but the combined efforts of the team proved to be formidable. Slowly but steadily, they managed to eliminate the feral ghouls, pushing them back until the building fell silent once more.

With the immediate threat neutralized, Sico and Hancock surveyed the area, ensuring that it was safe for the scavengers to continue their search. They remained vigilant, knowing that more dangers could lurk around every corner.

Once they were certain that the area was secure, the team resumed their exploration of the building, determined to find the elevator they had come for. Despite the unexpected encounter with the feral ghouls, their resolve remained unwavering as they pressed on with their mission.

Once the first elevator was successfully salvaged, the team wasted no time in continuing their search for the second one.

With the success of finding the first elevator, the scavengers were filled with renewed determination to locate the second one. They continued their meticulous search throughout the building, exploring every floor and examining every potential hiding spot.

After what felt like hours of scouring, they finally stumbled upon another promising area—a disused maintenance shaft tucked away in a remote corner of the building. Inside, hidden beneath layers of debris and rubble, lay the second elevator, its presence a welcome sight amidst the darkness of the shaft.

Excitement rippled through the team as they uncovered the second elevator, its metal frame showing signs of wear but still salvageable. With coordinated efforts, they quickly set to work, clearing away the debris and assessing the elevator's condition.

Under the watchful eyes of Sico and Hancock, the scavengers worked diligently to salvage the second elevator, their determination unwavering despite the challenges they faced. With each passing moment, they drew closer to completing their mission and securing the necessary equipment for the underground facility.

As the scavengers made progress, Sico and Hancock remained vigilant, ensuring the safety of the team and keeping watch for any potential threats. Their leadership and guidance proved invaluable, guiding the team through the salvage process and bolstering morale along the way.

Finally, after hours of hard work and determination, both elevators were successfully salvaged and deemed fit for transportation. With the scavengers' task complete, Sico and Hancock wasted no time in making preparations to transport the elevators back to Sanctuary.

Trucks were loaded, equipment secured, and the team assembled, ready to begin the journey back to Sanctuary with their valuable cargo. As they departed the building, a sense of accomplishment filled the air, knowing that they had overcome adversity and succeeded in their mission.

After a three-hour journey filled with anticipation, the convoy finally arrived back at Sanctuary, greeted by the familiar sights of the bustling community. Sico and Hancock led the way as the trucks rolled through the gates, their valuable cargo of salvaged elevators safely secured in tow.

Upon arrival at Sanctuary, Sico immediately ordered the trucks to unload the salvaged elevators at the Scavenging Department. Given the ongoing construction of the underground facility and the need for a secure location, Sico deemed it best to temporarily store the elevators there until the access point was finished being dug.

The convoy of trucks maneuvered into position, carefully unloading the elevators under Sico's supervision. With precision and efficiency, the elevators were safely placed inside the Scavenging Department, where they would remain until they could be transported to their final destination.

Sico instructed the militia members to maintain a watchful eye over the elevators, ensuring their security until they could be installed in the underground facility. He emphasized the importance of keeping the elevators safe and secure, as they were crucial components of Sanctuary's future safety measures.

After ensuring the elevators were safely stored away, Sico bid farewell to Hancock and his team, expressing his gratitude for their assistance. With a sense of accomplishment, he made his way to the Science Department to check on the progress of the access point being dug by Sturges and his team.

Approaching the excavation site, Sico found Sturges and his team hard at work, digging diligently as they carved out the access point for the underground facility. The sound of machinery and the clinking of shovels echoed through the area, signaling the progress being made.

Sturges: "Sico, what brings you here?"

Sico: "Sturges, I have good news. Hancock and his team have successfully retrieved the elevators we need for the underground facility."

Sturges: "That's fantastic! Having the elevators ready will significantly expedite the construction process."

Sico: "Yes, indeed,I just wanted to keep you updated on our progress. Keep up the excellent work here, Sturges. Let me know if you need any assistance with the installation process."

Sturges: "Will do, Sico. Thanks for the update."

Sico left the Science Department, pleased to see the project progressing smoothly and confident in the combined efforts of everyone involved.
