Five years before the events of Fallout 3
Megaton, Moriarty's saloon, noon
Alan walked into the bar, the smell of liquor and metal combined to create a fowl stench as Alan sat down.
"Gob, the usual Vodka. Oh, and leave the bottle" Alan said to the Ghoul.
"here you go, Alan. That will be, lets see here...30 caps"
"that a lot, but reasonable since its rare, here you are"
Alan drank his warm Vodka, it was watered down so people had to buy more to get drunk.
Colin sure does love to make money.
"Gob, why do you take Moriarty's crap lying down?" Alan asked.
"well what can i do?" Gob said in his raspy voice. "he owns me"
"well, someone needs to take care of him."
"Listen, Me and Nova want out of here. this seems Terrible to ask, but if some one were to kill him, some one could get all the vodka he wanted and half the money in the safe."
Alan was not a stranger to death as he has killed plenty of raiders, but someone in a town? and one who is well known?
Alan was at an impasse.
"why Half?" Alan asked.
"Me and Nova need some to live on, you get half because you the one ending him, so you get the most" Gob told him, as if it was already planned
"what will you and Nova do with the other half?"
"were gonna split it, I'm going to underworld and Nova is heading to Rivet City"
Alan didn't like the idea of doing it, but Moriarty was an ass and extra money seemed good, not to mention the Vodka.
Later that night.
Alan crept in to the bar and found Gob.
"is he sleeping?" he asked
"yes, he got plastered on whiskey, he past out an Hour ago"
Alan walked up the stairs and took out his combat knife
Firearms would be to loud and he didn't have a silencer.
Alan got to his door and opened it up.
Moriarty was sitting at his desk.
Already dead.
Alan rushed down stairs to tell Gob.
"Gob!, Gob Moriarty is already-"
"I know i did it" Gob told him
Gob drew a Sawed-off on him
"you will be to if you don't confess it to Simms in the morning.
Alan got no sleep that night.
"you what!" Simms yelled
"I killed Moriarty" Alan lied to him
"Boy, i autta kill you, but Moriarty was an greedy man" Simms said
"you listen here, you're gonna leave, and if you EVER come back i'll make sure you get fed to Mirelurks."
Alan went to the Megaton gates, they opened with a defining screech
Alan stepped outside.
It was hotter than ever, and 20 pounds of Black leather Armour didn't help either.
He didn't know where to go.
He never even got his Vodka.
