It was late in the year, around Christmas in the year
2020. It was late at night and most people were off work and all
the lights in the hospital were off, all but one. One bright and
shining, one that could be seen blocks away, even in the crowded
city, even from the ground. Carol was laying in a bed, next to
her husband, Dave. Carol was well pregnant, and the time was
near that she would give birth to her baby boy. Dave and Carol
had thought hard on a name, but to no conclusion. What doctors
were left in the building were all in the same room, save a few
nurses and apprentice doctors, getting a feel of the building,
they were swarming around busily, gathering tools and such. The
time was finnaly here, the time that Carol would give birth, she
pushed hard and long, and finally, after seven long hours, the
baby was finnally delivered. The doctors held the baby boy and
wrapped him in a warm blanked and handed him to Carol. She held
him long in her arms and hugged him ever so dearly. Again Dave
and Carol thought of a name for their new son, and it was that
they came up with the name Isaac.
Isaac grew up a normal kid, he went to school, he had
friends, he even had a girlfriend, at one point. He graduated at
age 18, but never remained in one school long, he was always
being transfered from one place to another, being a natural born
genius, and being very good with words, he could persuade anyone
to do anything he wanted them to do, at any time. Though after
graduating he took the first job that was available to him,
which was working for Prometheus Coal in Utah, at this point he
was 19, and very strong. It didn't take him long to work his way
up promotions and it wasn't long until he was a work manager. He
made a good bit of money working with Prometheus Coal. In which
he worked at for two years, but after the earthquake in Mexico
City, Isaac and his parents moved away.
He later got a job with Nuka-Cola as a flavor tester.
But that job didn't last long, as Nuka-Cola spread wide and
fast, and was made to perfection at the very first version.
Soon after he left Nuka-Cola, Isaac joined the Army and
goes to fight in the European Commonwealth during the Middle
East war in 2052, by this time he was 32 and well known by the
government and in a favorable position involving them. It was
2053 that the "New Plague" broke out, and at the first signs of
it, Isaac returned home, making it back just a day before the US
closes its borders. Only two weeks after Isaac returned home is
parents died from the plague. And only three days after that
Isaac was diagnosted with a chest cold, being one of the
symptoms of the New Plague it was no more than five minutes
Isaac was diagnosed that he was taken away to be quarantined,
Isaac was in a state of depression, and he would have killed
himself, had he not known that the plague was liable to do him
off in less than 24 hours.
So it was that Isaac read many books, and prayed often
that when he died, he would die in his sleep, that he would die
a painless and quick death. So it was Isaac went to sleep for
what he thought would be the last time. It was that night he
cried himself to sleep.
Isaac woke up early in the morning, surprised to be
alive, Isaac was in denial, he asumed it was a dream, or a sort
of afterdeath torture. It took nearly an hour for doctors to
convince Isaac that he was indeed alive and well, thought it
would not be for another two weeks before they would release
Isaac from quarantine. The only thing Isaac had in his cell was
a toilet, a small cot, a chair, a table and on it a small
computer.
Isaac spent most of his time reading through reports and
chemistry lessons, during Isaacs isolation he decided he would
become an bio engineer, or a scientis of some sort.
After being released from isolation Isaac went off to
join West Tek in 2053 and begins work on the Vault Project. An
underground network. That if nuclear bombs were to drop, or such
diseases as the New Plague were to reoccure or to become more
violent that who ever signed up for them was allowed to go to
incase of such events. It was then that Isaac had decided to
sign up for such a Vault, but there being only one in production
at the time, and all of his coworkers had already signed up,
Isaac was put on a waiting list, and being number 237 on the
list, Isaac soon gave up hope on being chosen for that Vault. It
was then that West Tek began work on the Pan-Immunity Virion
Project in 2055, the Pan-Immunity Project was also known as the
PVP.
Later Isaac began to work with Dr. Willem Clark on Vault
13, which was to be a more updated and safer version, which
Isaac also signed up for, but when he got to registration,
Vault-Tec was no longer taking applications as they reached an
inumerable amount of families.
It was then Isaac rejoined the Army and went to war in
Alaska in 2066, where he became a high ranked soldier. Isaac was
selected to test a new invention called Power Armor, which would
allow the wearer to be a walking, super powered, super human,
super tank, though the armor Isaac was testing failed part way
through the exercise corse and Isaac was locked in it for three
hours.
Two years later Dr. Willem Clark informs Isaac that
there is a free space in Vault 13. Isaac immediatly returns to
the US and becomes one of the scientists to work on the PVP at
Mariposa reasearch facility, which was now becomming a larger
bit of work than ever before, the PVP was renamed the FEV,
Forced Evolutionary Virus. Isaac was cought stealing information
on Vault 13 and as penalty, Isaac was subjected as a human test
rat for the FEV. Shortly after the government takes over the
project Maxson murders Robert Anderson, who was a lead figure on
the experiments. Isaac is one of the few scientists spared, and
after this incedent Isaac makes an escape from Mariposa in 2077,
after he hears word he is to be put to more, highly dangerous
tests.
Isaac lived with what money he had left, which was quite
abit, putting him in the upper clase of society, though he only
had about a month to enjoy this luxury. It was early in the
morning, around 4:48 AM when the sirens went off near his house,
he opened his window to see many military vehicles heading down
the street, and in the distance he saw many police vehicles,
ambulances and fire trucks, all of which where heading one way,
Isaac followed with his eyes the direction they where heading,
as he looked toward the horizon he saw a feint figure head over
the sky, just a few seconds later, Isaac heard a large deafining
rumble followed just miliseconds later by a brilliant flash of
light, as if the sun itself had crashed onto the earth. Isaac
was temporarily blinded by this light and fell backward from the
violent shaking of the earth, in which he hit his head on his
bed and become unconcious.
Isaac awoke sometime later, wether it was a few minutes,
or a few days, Isaac didn't know. He looked around but his eyes
were blurred, and to what he could tell it was still night time,
or, atleast it was dark. Isaac reached for his window, clawing
about for it like a blind man looking for a swich, no matter how
long Isaac swung his hands around, he couldn't find his window,
nor his wall for that matter. It was then that Isaac felt a
breeze on his face, he immediatly pulled his arms back from
where his wall was, or where he thought it was, and began
rubbing his eyes like a wild animal, it took only a few seconds
for him to see correctly again, and at that, Isaac wished that
he could not see at all, for what he saw was something no one
should ever have to see. He looked around, and saw that the the
wall which held the window he though was there was gone, it just
led out to the end of the floor which led out to a 4-story drop.
Isaac looked around more, many trees were burned away, what was
left of the town was nothing but buildings burning away. All he
could hear was the sound of screaming voices. Isaac looked
around his room abit more, wondering what he was to do next. Only
a few minutes had passed that Isaac began to feel cold, he felt
his shirt and realised it was wet. He felt about his chest and
found a tear in his shirt, which was very wet. He felt along the
tear and found what he was looking for. It was a peace of wood
so sharp that when Isaac touched it he cut his hand. It was then
that Isaac began to cough blood violently, knowing much about
anatomy he knew that he needed to stop coughing, or he might
die, as every cough brought more blood out of his wound, and out
of his mouth.
After gaining control of his body Isaac reached under
his bed, which was well burnt, he pulled out his medkit and
began to work on getting the wood out of his chest, which he
realised was a good two feet long. After that was out of the
Isaac then began to wrap his body in bandages. After resting for
a few moments Isaac decided it was time that he get to safety as
soon as possible. Isaac decided it was best to use the stairs to
get as low to the ground as possible, though the second floor
was burnt greatly causing Isaac to be stuck on the third floor.
He ventured around and found something on which to slide down,
though at the end Isaac was left a good eight feet drop in which
he landed on something rather soft, or more of squishy, as Isaac
looked down he realised he had landed on Herbert, or what was
left of him. Herbert was Isaacs neighbor, weighing atleast 400
pounds. Isaac began to feel sick, but remained determined to get
to safety. Looking back, Isaac saw that what he had slid down
was part of a wing of a plane. Astonished that he was still
alive Isaac limped over the a hill, his house being at the edge
of the city Isaac figured he could work his way into a field
where he could get away from everything, though apon getting to
the top of the hill, Isaac saw in the distance more bombs going
off, which he realised to be atomic bombs. Isaac was scared,
more than ever in his life. It was then he remembered Vault 13,
so he deceided to work his way there.
