???: "Whoa now easy there youngesters we mean you no harm,"

The two who entered the casino where meet with a old man? Along with others who had both normal and homemade looking weapons. Krystal and the courier lowered their weapons at the site before them as did the others in the room.

This wasn't what Krystal and the courier expected, instead of convicts they were meet with people...friendlish people. The old man before them grabbed the courier's gun and gently pushed it down with a smile.

???: "Easy their kiddo their ain't bad people here so please put down your weapons,"

Krystal looked around to see that they weren't a threat and she signaled to the courier all was good. As the two lowered their weapons the old man smiled as he held out his hand  to them.

???: "Well with that out of the way welcome to Primm...what's left of it,"

(Y/n): "So old man you got a name?"

The old man smiled as he grabbed a cigarette before lighting it.

???: "Names Johnson Nash I run the Majove express,"

Krystal turned to the courier who turned to the old man with a look of hope, hope of knowing who he was before.

(y/n): "Hey Johnson I know this may sound weird but have we meet before?"

Johnson looked up to the courier who held a look of hope but shatter when the tan man shook his head.

Johnson: "I don't think so youngster first time we've meet. Why? Do I have one of those faces? *laughs*"

The courier shook his head before speaking again.

(y/n): "No its just- nevermind...but I have to ask how are you guys holding up here when those convits are out their?"

Johnson: "Well to be honest son I think the reason why they haven't come in here is because of our numbers and Primm Slim,"

The two adventurers look at each other before back at Johnson.

Krystal: "I'm sorry who?"

Johnson: "Oh wow sorry lady I didn't think you can talk,"

Krystal cocked a eyebrow, the old man held out his hands.

Johnson: "Sorry if I offended you miss but I've never seen anything like you before,"

The vixen placed a hand on her hip.

Krystal: "Yeah its fine,"

Johnson: "Again I'm sorry if I did anything to make you mad miss fox,"

Krystal smiled before holding out her hand.

Krystal: "It's fine Johnson I got a feeling I'm going to get that more often than I like,"

The old man took a drag of his cigarette before exhaling.

Johnson: "Well Slim is that robot with the cowboy behind me,"

Looking past Johnson to the robot that was circling the old world car in the center of the casino.

(y/n): "Sooo the protectron?"

Johnson: "You know your machines,"

(y/n) smiled as he crossed his arms.

(y/n): "I've did my fair share of reading,"

Johnson: "*Chuckles slight* I've bet you have but besides that can I ask you a favor of you two,"

Krystal tilted her head.

Krystal: "What kind of favor?"

Johnson: "Well since the two of you handed those baddies outside can you go into the hotel and deal with the convit leader that has Beagel our town's deputy?"

(y/n): "deputy? What happened to the sheriff?"

Johnson looked up at the courier with sad eyes, no words need to be said as both the courier and krystal knew what those eyes meant: Death.

(y/n): "Alright but what's in it for us,"

Krystal turned to the courier with a shocked look.

Krystal: "(Y/N)!"

(y/n): "What I'm just ask,"

Krystal hit the back of the courier's head with a growl.

Krystal: "You don't have to be so rude about it,"

Johnson laughed at the act before speaking.

Johnson: "It's fine ma'am but their is something,"

Holding the back of his head the courier looked up.

Johnson: "I have a old robot sitting in my house and since you seem to know your robots I will allow you to take it that is if you can fix it,"

(y/n): "What kind of robot is it?"

The old man huffed some more before taking the bud out of his mouth then to the courier.

Johnson: "I think its a eyebot of some kind,"

(y/n) smiled still rubbing the back of his head.

(y/n): "A eyebot? Those are rare,"

Johnson: "Yeah they are and it may help the two of you to clean out those convits so what do you say?"

Krystal turned to the courier who smiled, she then nodded before turning to the old man.

Krystal: "We'll do it,"

/Later in the Mojave express/Johnson Nash's home/

/a hour later/

Krystal: "Whoa you did it,"

(y/n): "I was a pain but yeah I did it,"

Before the two was now a fully working eyebot that hovered in the air humming slightly.

Krystal: "Still can't believe you programmed it with that pip-boy of yours,"

The courier held out his hand to krystal.

(y/n): "Got to love this baby,"

Krystal: "I need to get one,"

(y/n): "Later but now lets see if my programming did any good *clears throat* Eyebot!"

The robot buzzed and beep as it turned to the courier.

(y/n): "Eyebot ED-E begin companion periodical,"

 ED-E: "*confirming beeps*"

Krystal: "It works!"

(y/n): "Hell yeah welcome to the team ED-E,"

Krystal: "ED-E?"

The courier turned to krystal.

(y/n): "What?"

Krytsal: "ED-E isn't really a name,"

(y/n): "Well it is since it says that on the plate on his hall,"

Krystal: "What? Where does it say th- oh your right,"

Sure enough the lesions plate on ED-E's side read just that 'ED-E', krystal placed a hand on the Haul of ED-E.

Krystal: "Gotta say he does look cute in a way,"

ED-E: "*Beeps*"

(y/n): "I think he likes you,"

Krystal smile to the robot as she 'petted' it.

Krystal: "I like you too,"

ED-E: "Happy beeps*"

(y/n): "Well not to break this moment we have a job,"

The vixen moved aside with a nod.

Krystal: "Right,"

(Y/n): "ED-E are your weapon systems working?"

The eyebot 'nodded' and beeped.

(Y/n): "Good to hear little buddy think you can help us kill some bad guys?"

ED-E: "*Determined beeps*"

(y/n): "Alright lets do this,"

/With in the hotel/

Thug: "Wonder what the others are up too,"

The lone thug that was guarding the door held his single shot shotgun as he wondered what happened to the guys outside. Its been a hour since anyone has gone out or in and the thug was getting a little worried. Not for the other but worried if the NCR finally had the balls to come in and take back primm from them.

*Knocks*

Thug: "Huh?"

*Knocks*

Thug: "The door is open,"

*Knocks get louder*

Thug: "The door is open!"

*Get ever louder*

Thug: "THE DOOR IS OPEN!"

*Still knocking*

Thug: "THE DOOR IS- Whatever I'm coming! Mitch if that's you I'm going to kill you,"

 As the thug opened the doors to the lobby he peaked out but to be meet with the barrel of a saw-off shotgun.

Thug: "Oh fu-"

Not having time to finish the gun fired causing the thug's grey matter to go flying as his body fell to the ground, dead.

Convict: "Jimmy? What was that?"

As around convict ran around the corner to see what his friend was doing was meet only with a laser beam to the chest causing him to scream. But the scream was only a silent one since his body turned to ash from the blast of energy.

Convict 2: "The hell-! ITS THE NCR THEY HAVE COME TO TAKE OUR TURF!!!"

Our three heroes entered the building as the remaining convict ran to his friends in fear of what happened to the other guy. The courier reloaded his shotgun as Krystal had her varmint rifle and ED-E's laser was charged for another shot.

Krystal: "Now what? they know were coming,"

(y/n) smiled as he pulled out a stick of TNT as he held it in one hand.

(y/n): "Good that means they'll be held up in a group,"

/In the dining hall/

Convict 2: "Boss they have energy weapons!"

Leader: "How do know that?"

Convict: "I saw Steven turn into a pile of ash,"

The leader lowered his hockey mask and smiled.

Leader: "Good that means one energy gun for our team once we killed these's punks,"

The group of convicts set up in the dining hall readied them selves for a fight as they aimed at the two sets of doors guns at the ready. Their leader pulled out his own weapon that dwarfed any of the others weapons, that was the insinuator.

This was a heavy weapon that fired napalm at the target causing them to be set on fire which will cook them alive till they die. But it had one flaw, it was heavy and bulky as hell which only meant he could only move ever so slowly. He didn't care though he only need one good shot and it would all be game over for the guy on the other end.

The open doors to the dinning room where open to them as they waited for the ones who attacked their buddies to come out and die at their hands. But instead of NCR going in head strong they were meet with a dynamite stick, the red bomb was thrown out of the side of the door frame from out of sight to the group.

Leader: "SHIT MOVE!"

Throwing his weapon aside the leader leaped behind cover as the bomb went off killing two of the seven convicts in the room. As the leader got up with his ears still ringing in pain from the blast he looked over to where he dropped his weapon to see it was now a roaring blaze of fire causing him to curse. But before he got up he was meet with the barrel of a weapon next to his face causing him to freeze.

Krystal: "Don't move,"

Leader: "Fuck,"

The leader held out his hands in the air as he looked up to see krystal who held a glare on her face causing the leader to be confused in what he was seeing. Did he hit his head a little too hard or what?

Leader: "What the fuck are you?"

Krystal: "Shut up,"

Unknown to krystal a convict was going up behind her causing the leader to smile as the convict pulled a knife from his belt as he did he readied to strike.

(y/n): "KRYSTAL BEHIND YOU!"

Krystal snapped to the convict behind her and fired her weapon, the 5.56 easily meet and killed the convict behind her. But this moment of not looking at the leader cost her, the leader snapped up and grabbed her from behind and began to chock her out. The vixen gasped at the action but growled and them bite down on the leader's unarmored arm causing him to roar in pain. He let her go as he held his arm in pain as Krystal turned to him with a glare as she held her weapon like a club and used it to hit the butt of the rifle against the leader's head.

This action causing the rifles end to explode in splinters from the action including the plastic hooky mask. Cunks of blood, plastic, and wood went flying in the air as Krystal narrowed her eyes down at the dead leader. She looked down at the leader with a hateful glare but turned when she heard a war cry come from her side as another convict ran to her this time with a chair. Unlike last time this time she had help from ED-E who fired his laser and turned the thug into a pile of ash causing the chair to fall down onto the fresh pile of ash as it did.

Krystal: "Thanks ED-E,"

The robot chirped before turning to the remaining thugs, more had heard the explosion from the up stairs and now began to pour in adding in their numbers in the kitchen. (y/n) had used one of the tables as cover as the baddies opened fired on them, krystal crawled over to (y/n) with her broken rifle as he turned to her.

(y/n): "You alright?"

Krystal: "I'll live thanks for the help,"

(y/n) blinked in worry.

(y/n): "Sorry if I couldn't help you these guys came out of no where and attack me before I could help you,"

Krystal: "Its fine but now we have to deal with these guys,"

ED-E hovered low to the ground as the two talk before beeping to them.

ED-E: "*ALERT BEEP*"

(Y/n): "Right sorry ED-E Krystal here take my rifle since you no longer seems to be of any good use,"

The courier handed her his rifle, she thanked him before taking in her hands and readied herself.

(y/n): "From what I saw their is about six of those guys hooked up in there,"

Krystal: "Can you use another explosive?"

(y/n) shook his head.

(y/n): "My pip-boy tells me theirs a friendly in there,"

Krystal: "Do you think its the Deputy?"

(y/n) nodded.

(y/n): "Think so best we avoid using explosives for now,"

Krystal: "Agreed,"

The courier peaked his head before snapping back.

Krystal: "Can you see him?"

(y/n): "Can't tell I think he's behind the table in the kitchen,"

Krystal heard clicks of dry weapons as she turned to the courier who smiled and gave a nod, the three got up from their hiding spot and fired their weapons three of the group of convicts feel to the ground after being meet with their death. This caused the other to curse and take cover but one of the ones that Krystal shot had a grenade in his hand...the pin was pulled.

Thug: "OH SHI-!"

Before he could finish the room roared in flames as the explosive went off killing EVERYONE inside causing the two to cover their eyes from the heat. Slowly as the flames died the two lowered their arms to see the darken room causing (y/n) to curse.

(y/n): "Fuck..."

Krystal: "Yeah...Fuck,"

/later still in the hotel after checking the bodies/

After a little bit after the fire fight the three had checked the dead for ammo or any supplies to which where few thanks to the grenade going off. Along with that the Deputy was now dead and to what the courier found on the guy's body was a holotap and what he found was...he didn't want to be rude on the dead but he was a fucking coward.

Primm now seemed doom that law keepers were dead.

Krystal: "What do we tell Nash?"

The courier looked up from the lock he was picking in the gift shop to her.

(y/n): "Tell what happens,"

Krystal: "Yeah tell him that I shot a guy who had a explosive and went off killing the deputy leaving the town doomed to be lawless,"

(y/n): "You didn't know Krystal,"

Krystal crossed her arms as she sat on the cashier's desk with her back against the wall.

Krystal: "I know its just..."

(y/n) looked from what he was doing to her.

(y/n): "Just what? You saved our skins when a guy had ill will to us? It was a simple mistake Krystal trust me I know,"

He went back to his work as he popped open the floor safe.

Krystal: "But mine cost someone their life,"

She hugged her legs close to her chest as the courier got up from the ground before placing a hand on her shoulder.

(y/n): "Hey,"

Turing her head she looked at the courier who brought her close for a hug, Krystal hugged back before the courier broke the hug.

(y/n): "Krystal I know how you feel,"

Krystal: "You do?"

He nodded.

Krystal: "Who,"

(y/n): "Remember when I told you about that shootout in goodsprings? *She nods* It came at a cost. Sunny smiles,"

Krystal blinked before remembering what the courier told her that sunny helped him know what he knows today.

Krystal: "I'm sorry,"

(y/n): "Don't be It was my mistake and I know she would be happy knowing Goodsprings is now safer than ever,"

Krystal: "But what about Beagle?"

(Y/n) placed a hand on her shoulder.

(y/n): "Krystal he was a coward and his actions got him caught along with getting himself killed. It was your actions that got him caught alright they where his and that sealed his fate alright not you,"

Krystal smiled slightly.

Krystal: "Thanks (y/n),"

(y/n): "Not a problem,"

He then got back down to look though the safe for supplies and-

(Y/n): "HELL YES!"

Krystal was spooked slightly before looking down at the courier who got up holding a very fancy looking revolver.

Krystal: "Whoa nice find,"

(y/n): "Yeah I think its a suitable replacement for my rifle,"

Krystal cocked a eyebrow to the courier who still held his rifle.

Krystal: "What do you mean It still works and here by the way I meant to give it back,"

The courier smiled as he held out his hand.

(y/n): "Keep it I wasn't very good with rifles but you on the other hand seem to be a different story,"

Krystal looked down at the semi-upgraded rifle in her hand before looking up at the courier.

Krystal: "You mean it?"

He nodded.

(y/n): "Treat it nicer than you last one is all I got to say about it,"

Krystal smiled before hugging the courier with one arm.

Krystal: "Thanks again (y/n),"

The courier laughed slight before the broke the hug.

ED-E: "*Beeps*"

(y/n): "Huh?"

ED-E pointed to the door.

(y/n): "Right well I think its time we tell the others now huh?"

Krystal nodded.

krystal: "Yeah...hey I have a idea!"

(y/n): "Really? What?"

Krystal placed a hand on the courier's ear and whispered something that something caused the courier's eyes to light up.

(y/n): "Hey not a bad idea not a bad idea at all!"
