Chapitre 4 : Enemy Mine

The storm woke me last night ; it was cold, the rain lashed me, the sky was red, and ash fell. A nauseating smell tormented my nostrils. A smell of fire and blood. That's when i saw its disturbing silhouette emerging from the darkness. The chimera that tauted me and pierced me with its gaze. And then ... Everything became calm.

J-1

I didn't heesitate for a second to talk to Sophie about it. We couldn't just stand by and do nothing. We had to act !

Sophie suggested we talk to Shank. He would be the only one who could help us get an audience with the Overboss.

 He tell us the Overboss has a meeting  with investors at his base. But he want to close the sale first. So we decided to divide the tasks with Sophie. She would take care to sell the crops while i will confort the Overboss.

I need to sneak out Fizztop Grille, and for that, i asked a slave to cover his shift at the Overboss base. And i need his slave's rags and collar either way !

After making the slave cry, i met Dallas. She was one of the Overboss bitch. She looked threatering, but actually she' s really cool. She promised me to release me after my shift. She couldn't bear to see a girl me wearing a slave collar.

During the Fizztop chores, i couldn't help but rummage through the CONFIDENTIAL files scattered all over the room ; if he didn't want them read, he shouldn't have left them within sight. And i learned several things : First, the Overboss is rich ... $$ REALLY RICH $$. Rich enough to pay off Brett's debt without any problems.

Second, he is seeking investors, BIG INVESTORS to make Nuka town more attractive.

Third, he rebuilds all Nuka town for his wife... "Wait, if he has a wife, what the hell does he has bitches ?"

Just as i was about to cook, i recognized a familiar voice, the same voice that threatened Brett and me ... I was paralyzed by fear.

Is name is Ryder, the Overboss brother in law and member of the Gunners. A real son of a bitch ... no offence to the Overboss's wife. Her name is Harlowe by the way.

Unfortunately, i wasn't able to speak with the Overboss ; the situation didn't allow it.

Fortunately, Sophie was more lucky than me. Shank tall her that the OB had a meetinng with Brotherhood's soldiers at Seven Bar ...

... But Katelyn had serious problem

With no way out, Katelyn agrees to give us an audience with the OB if Sophie works permanently at Seven Bar ...

... And if we are working exceptionally tonight.

We had to present ourselves to soldiers three times our age. The idea of flirting with several men in the same room seemed to me awkward

But strangely, i felt at ease with them. There's no point in denying it, these men have a natural charm althrough i find their captain a bit pushy

And there's no point in denying it, i attract their full attention.

But the evening was short'lived when the OB blocked my way back from the kitchens. He didn't like my poor perfomance down below. But i didn't care, i just wanted to explain the situation between Brett and the Gunners. But he didn't care ...

Until he comes back to tell us that he pays half of the debt. Not out of charity, not out of pity, but because we were an asset to him. At the moment, i wanted to call him an asshole for using us.

Surprisingly, i didn't say that : "Thank you sir !" i let slip. And that feeling came back to me. Damm it ! What is it ? Gratitude ? Contempt ?
