"Kori?" Tali called, and paused for a few moments, waiting for an answer. When none came, she headed off to his tent in case he was waiting for her there.

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 2:02 am

"Alright your done, get out," Mary pushed the Legionnaire off her table and pointed to her door, the man walked out with a low growl, storming down past Kori's tent and thus past Tali grumbling about 'stupid female doctors.'

Kori took a seat near her, "We went through a lot in New Vegas, don't forget it was me and Tali who carried you to the followers of the apocalypse after we were attacked."

Mary grunted a response. "So?"

"So? Maybe you should cut her a little slack and stop blaming her for things out of her control." Mary had never seen Kori so serious, it was a little alarming.

"I'm going to be killed Kori!" She spun around. "He is going to kill me, because she..because she...made me tell her I was pregnant."

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 2:11 am

Tali heard the Legionary mutter as he walked past her; her expression soured somewhat at the mention of Mary. However she then heard Kori's voice coming from her medical tent. She approached said tent and stood outside the entrance, reluctant to enter and get into a fight with Mary again.

"You've managed to alienate one of the only people who would stand by you," Kori had a very serious tone and was oddly composed, his expression matching. "I know you don't like me Mary but I swear I won't let anyone hurt you," he tried to give her a reassuring smile.

"Kori...you're an idiot," Mary crossed her arms, though her face softened, she looked down. "A stupid idiot..just," she sighed. "Sorry."

Meanwhile, Caesar got up from his bed and made his way back to his throne. After sitting down, he turned to Vulpes.

"Go and get Mary and that courier girl and bring them to me," he ordered.

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 2:46 am

Vulpes nodded. "Straight away," he marched out of the tent and headed towards Mary's medical facility, he knew she's be there, the woman was as easy to read as a magazine. He caught sighed of Tali, though now dressed, outside. He crept up behind her and cleared his throat.

Mary and Kori both turned and walked out the door, seeing Tali and Vulpes. "What do you want?" Mary bit at the man.

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 2:54 am

Tali squeaked and jumped backwards when she heard Vulpes clear this throat behind her. She hadn't heard him come up behind her (she swore he was like a ninja) and she was still kinda embarrassed about what happened earlier.

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 2:56 am

Vulpes just stared at Tali with an unreadable expression, he then looked at Mary, sidestepped Kori's eye contact. "The two of you are required, follow," it was a command not a request.

Mary swallowed hard, eyes wide, was this it? She looked at Tali, fear written over her face even though she tried to hide it. "O-okay," she followed.

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 3:00 am

Tali glanced anxiously at Kori before turning around and following Vulpes reluctantly.

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 3:01 am

Kori didn't follow, knowing to do so would be unwise, he did however began to walk around the other side. If something happened he would be there ready.

Mary looked terrified beyond belief as they walked into the tent, she suddenly grabbed Tali's hand, shaking.

Vulpes walked forwards and took his place as Caesar's side.

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 3:14 am

Tali looked sideways at Mary and raised an eyebrow at her before looking back at Caesar.

Caesar turned his attention to Mary.

"I have made a decision," he said. "The child you are carrying in your womb shall be my heir, regardless of its gender, and you shall be given all of the titles and privileges of a woman worthy of bearing my heir. And as for you..." he turned to Tali, "I have another job for you."

Tali cringed.

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 3:17 am

Mary stood, dumb founded for a second. "What?" She said to herself, now in a world of her own as Natalie was given yet another job. "But...Tali is leaving-," she thought for a second. "I think...I thought the chip was the job, what else do we have to do." She assumed she was being sent as well.

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 3:37 am

"Considering your present condition, I think it would be unwise to send you with her," Caesar said. He turned back to Tali, handed her the Platinum Chip again and said "You'll need this."

"What's it for?" Tali asked.

"Down the hill, at the west edge of camp, is an old building. Inside the building is a hatch, and inside that hatch are two steel doors that bear the sigil of the Lucky 38 casino. I'm sure you saw it when you went to get the chip. Speaking of the chip, it bears the same sigil, does it not? Now, there is a slot about the same size as the chip on the console that opens the hatch. I want you to go down there and see if it opens the hatch like I think it does. If it does, I want you to destroy whatever you find down there."

"Why? What do you think is down there?"

"What do you know about Mr House, the ruler of New Vegas?"

"I've heard stories about him..."

"Well, Mr House is a potential threat to my invasion of the West. I want this threat eliminated. I believe he has some sort of weapon down there, and I want it gone. Understood?"

Tali nodded.

"Good. Your companion for this task shall be Vulpes."

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 3:41 am

Vulpes hadn't expected to be sent but concealed his surprise well, he walked forwards and besides Tali. "Your weapons will be given back to you for this mission," he nodded his head at a guard who gave Tali her stuff, he then turned to Caesar and bowed his head.

Mary looked at Tali and Vulpes, she stared at Tali more so. "Good luck," she sighed and rubbed the back of her neck, feeling an ache come on.

**Nenalata** Sun May 01, 2011 3:47 am

Tali nodded at Mary, turned around and exited the tent. Once outside, she turned to Vulpes and said "You'll need to show me where this place is."

**Rice** Sun May 01, 2011 4:33 am

"I intend to," Vulpes walked forwards not even giving Tali a look, a very serious expression on his face.
Kori walked up to Tali. "Are you alright?" He caught sight of Vulpes and instantly went into submissive mode. "Oh, I'm sorry commander I didn't see you there."

**Nenalata** Mon May 02, 2011 12:45 am

Tali gave Kori a quick hug.

"That was... Unexpected," she said.

**Rice** Mon May 02, 2011 1:37 am

"Are you still leaving?" Kori's face softened at the hug, he turned to Vulpes who was pretty much looking at him as if he were trash on the floor, the man looked down uncomfortably under his gaze.

"We are quite busy Korbin, please stop dwindling our progress and stand aside," Vulpes' tone was disapproving and scathing, he marched past Kori and towards the bunker than was down on the other side of the hill.

**Nenalata** Mon May 02, 2011 1:46 am

"No, don't worry, I'll be back soon," Tali replied, patting him on the shoulder before rushing off to catch up with Vulpes.

**Rice** Mon May 02, 2011 1:49 am

Vulpes walked at a quick yet agile pass, he made quick progress towards the bunker and walked inside without a word to the guards. He reached into his pocket and got out the chip Caesar had given to him, it rolled around in his hand before he gently slipped it into the metal contraption. The doors to their left began to open, the mechanical construct rolling in reaction to the key. "So, it worked," he proceeded down the steps till he was in front of the door to Mr.House's bunker. "I wonder what's inside," he muttered to himself.

**Nenalata** Mon May 02, 2011 1:59 am

Tali bounded down the stairs after Vulpes and followed him into the bunker. Upon stepping through the door, the gieger counter on her Pip Boy went off; the place was irradiated. She cringed, hoping that this task wouldn't take too long. She took another step forwards into the room and noticed a large computer screen on the wall to her right.

"I wonder what this is here for..." she muttered to herself, staring at it.

**Rice** Mon May 02, 2011 2:02 am

"It doesn't matter," Vulpes heard the noise and stared at her arm. "What was that?" The piece of technology confused him a little, and it wasn't like you could feel radiation happening. He walked towards one of the exists and paused as he heard the sound of robotic footsteps. "Securitons, typical," he should have expected it.

**Nenalata** Mon May 02, 2011 2:15 am

"This?" Tali asked as she drew her pistol, holding up the arm with her Pip Boy on it. "It does... Lots of things. And right now, it's telling me that this place is full of radiation."

**Rice** Mon May 02, 2011 10:56 am

"Wonderful," Vulpes turned his attention to the sounds of the securitons. "There must be a computer around here to reactivate them," he walked down the hall and left into a small holding cell lined with lockers, he saw the computer and went over, activating it. "I'll be able to shut them down from here," he began to tap away on the keys.

**Nenalata** Mon May 02, 2011 3:38 pm

"I hope you can," Tali said, watching his fingers tapping on the keys. "I don't fancy getting into a fight with robots today..."
