Vault 99 - Landfall

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 12:05 pm

Ian was busily working when the lights went out, unfortunately frying the computer along with it. He straps off his portable computer (A football sized, metal cube with a monitor sticking out diagonally and a retractable keyboard), and startds to fins what the problem is. After some minutes of diagnostics,

Ian: Oh crap.

Ian: *Through global intercom* Umm, we seem to have a malfunction with the powering system here. The roaches have successfully broken the cables. We'll need a mechanic headed to the power plant, and thaks for listening.

As he notices Jason heading in to the main room and starting towards the Overseer's office, Ian approaces him and hastily says,

Ian: NOW would be a good time for that evacuation plan of yours!

Jason paces towards the Overseer's office. He is holding his gun ready, expecting the radroaches to jump out at any second. On the way Ian stops him and mentions the evacuation plan, Jason turns to him.

Jason: I'm going to the overseer now, I'll see what he says.

He reaches the overseer's office with no encounters. Jason asks for a meeting on the intercom just by the waiting benches, outside his offce.

Jason:Overseer? Jason Graves, dayshift security Captain. I need to talk to you urgently sir. The radroaches seem to be a more serious problem than expected. They managed to crawl through the vents into my chambers and I am afraid it will happen to others aswell. This problem needs to be contained immedeately. We might have landed on a nest or something, they seem to be just too many. They also became very agressive and attacked me a little while ago. My quarters have been sealed and my family is in the lobby where there are still security presonel and workers so they should be safe for now. This is urgent sir, I really need to talk to you.

Overseer: Hmmm, come in, come in.

The overseer looks at Jason in a pensive manner, then leans over the desk

Overseer: I've been getting reports of other bugs in the maintenance shafts too. We need some kind of agent to dispose of these creatures. Gather up a group of scientists to get on the matter. I dont want to see this place turned into a ghost vault because of some roaches. I want this cleaned up with as little panic as possible. Keep it on the low as I dont want chaos, I will not have chaos in this Vault. Go, gather up some scientists and get this thing fixed. If by some chance it wont be possible, we're going to evacuate, the people are not safe in here anymore.

Graves heads over to towards the Comms center to send out PMs to a small group of scientists through their Pipboys.

((The message is for Ian, Malacro and Gizmo. The message reads))

This is Jason Graves Captain of the dayshift security force. I have contacted you in hopes that you may be able to help me with a delicate matter. The overseer has assigned me the task of getting together a group of scientists to figure out a way to dispose of this radoach problem. I have called upon you as I have reviewed your profile and have found you a valid candidate, if you do not wish to take part, delete this message. The matter must be kept silent for now as to not create panic amongst the Vault Dwellers. This is our last chance to control the situation, if not, we're going to have to evacuate. PM me with your decision.

-Temple gets up from his bed and puts his gun in his pack then he picks up the pack and leaves the room-

Temple:"OW!This bite hurts but i can't tell doc" *rips some of his blanket off and wraps it tightly around his bite then hides it with his pant leg*

-Temple walks out of his room past the overseer's office not saying a word to ian and heads to the security quarters-

Temple:*says to self*"I sure hope nobodys in there"

-He then heads inside sure enough the small number of security is out patroling or taking care of some radroachs-

Temple:*walks over to a footlocker and opens it up he takes some ammo for his gun and a security uniform and stuffs in in his pack*"sure hope they don't mind hah!"

-He then walks out of the room and goes back to his quarters , he then notices one of those vile bugs in his room without thought he slams his foot down on its head and throws its corpse out the door into the hall-

{ooc I know im not really talking to you guys or anything but my plot will unfold lol}

Ian watches as Jason goes into the Overseer's office, then returns to work, his thinking being set into motion by Jason words, and starts trying to find out where in NY they are. It was a simple matter of re-enabling the different sensors and GPS systems. But, while he's working, his Pipboy lights up wth a message from Jason. Ian replies:

Will join as soon as I have spare time, attempting to find V99 location

Then he goes back to work. Then a window pops up with the scan results. The do not look good. He sends a message to Jason using his Pipboy:

URGENT!!!
V99 has landed on top of a roach meganest! Estimated population of 11 million or more! All resident roaches have informed the rest of our prescence, and all are heading up! EVACUATION STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, unless you want to die in a sea of insects!


{OOC: Arch-mage, try something known as correct spelling/grammar. Your spelling gives my migraines. Literally. Not being offensive. Just having hard time reading things with bad spelling. Might want to try running your contributions through Word or something. Also, Jason, we have a good reason for evacuating. No one wants to be overrun by ~11,000,000 radroaches.}

*Gizmo sends a message back to Jason, accepting the mission, and then goes to find Ian. When he sees the results, he goes over to the place where the acid leaked and searches for the damaged pipe, once he finds it, he traces the pipe to it's source. There is a large tank full of it. He goes to Ian.*

Gizmo: Hey Ian, I saw the results, and I think that there's enough CF3SO3H to go around the Roach population. The tank is huge and the ship hull can withstand it.

Jason is searching the Vault for Ian and Gizmo when he hear's Gizmo's voice around a corner. He overhears Gizmo telling Ian about the chem and approaches them.

Jason: It won't work. I've just been to communications. I told the people there to send a ultrasound wave into the ground, then see what bounces back, you know like bats... We got millions of organic interferences with the wave, and they're huge.... and heading this way, they had a 20 cm displacement in 5 seconds.. seems like they are digging their way up towards the Vault, the whole [censored] nest. We need to get out of here and fast. Ian, get a map going of the surrounding area, we're gonna need it.

Jason heads over to the closest intercom.

Jason: Attention all personell, Code red is in progress Evacuation in procedure, proceed to the nearest lobby and wait for security personell to escort you to the vault exit. This is not a drill, all personell proceed to the nearest lobby.

The evacuation siren started almost immedeately after Jason started talking. The red warning lights came on in every sector of the Vault.

Jason grabs his HQ communications device and speaks into it.

Jason: HQ this is Jason Graves, all spare security officers are to report to the designated sector lobby and secure the personel. I will give the go when we will move to the Vault exit. I also require a squad to swipe the corridors where the Vault Dwellers will pass through. Jason out.

The comms device bleeps then a voice comes out of it.

HQ: Understood Jason, we'll make it happen, the Overseer agrees with your decision.

(( About time we get out of here, I would have liked to get out of here too, but it wouldnt be very RPish if a security captain would incite a riot or would try to escape, for no real reason. But now.... well its another story.))

Ian: Jason, you are seriously underestimating the case here! There are AT LEAST 11,000,000 roaches, each one as large as your arm, and for what we know, they may be heading up to us right now! It's a fracking meganest, for God's sakes!

Ian starts doing another scan to see the current position of the roaches. Another window pops up with the new scans.

Ian: I stand corrected. All of the roaches are heading up. We have 90 hull breaches. That vat of superacid is only a drop in the ocean.

Ian enters some commands, and a window pops up showing the Vault 99 blueprint, and several printers in the HQ room starts whirring, printing a black-and-white copy of the blueprint. Ian quickly walks over to each one and takes the print.

Ian: We've got 10 copies of the map. Thank God my comp's got wireless.

Ian hands out a map to Gizmo and Jason. But Ian suddenly pauses for thought a moment.


Ian: There are large canisters of airborne insecticide in the ventilation system, leaking out small amounts all the time. This won't be enough for the radroaches, but I can design a system that stops the pumps, then, on command from my comp, release all the insecticide into the vault. The vault will be bug free, but the air will be so filled with insecticide that it won't be habitable for ant least 2 months. But then I could leak the insecticide-filled vault air into the air outside the vault, effectively securing a bug-free piece of land around the vault, stretching 0.5 km outwards, for at least another 2 months. But we need several people to go into each air recycling room spread throughout the vault and secure these chips..

Ian pulls 8 small chips which he slots into the computer, writes a line of coding, and pulls out again, handing them all to Gizmo.

Ian:..Onto the computers there firmly, and then we simply have to defend this room while I write the necessary coding. The general civillian population can wait outside. Does it sound like a plan? Or should we just evacuate and hope for the best?

{OOC: Let's just say we're in the Computer Room right now, I'm confused as to where we are.}

Jason looks at the blueprints and circles the air cycling rooms on it.

Jason: Alright, we'll try this, judging by the distance, i'd say give me 5-6 minutes to reach each one, then I'll need 15 minutes to reach the Vault door and get out of here. I'm your safest bet against the roaches, you can secure the titanium doors, the roaches wont be able to get through those. And if they get into the vents, well shoot em. Go to the HQ and get yourselves some weapons.

Jason looks at the map again, studying it and marking his route.

Ian: I have a pistol. I think I'm fine. Oh, and umm, remember that there are several computers in some rooms. Stick the chip on the blue one.
I'll try to send updates on the roaches' progress through the radio.

Ian runs to the main computer, sits down, and begins to enter command codes rapidly. he pauses for a moment.

Ian: Oh and by the way, don't bother closing the door. If they managed to chew through the Vault hull, the titanium door is like paper to them. But when they chewed through the Vault, they were rabid and very lucid, so don't expect them to escape when we trigger the trap.

After saying that, he continues typing again.

Jason: Alright, I'm heading there now, I'll check back with you when i reach the first checkpoint.

Jason leaves the room and heads towards the air cycling chambers. Some minutes pass and the radio beeps, indicating an incoming signal.

Jason: Right, I reached the first air cycling chamber, im opening the doors now.
The sound of the doors opening is heard comming from the radio.
Jason: Ah crap, room's full o...(bzzzt)
Some shots are heard then the radio goes dead, only static can be heard coming out of it.

Ian types something, then looks up from his computer with an unnervingly calm mood.

Ian: I have sprayed the room Jason was in with a small amount of pesticide. He'll get slightly nauseous, but the bugs will be stunned for a minute or two. And Tyson, since you aren't up to date on the plans, just sit nicely in the chair over there and monitor power levels.

Ian continues to type.

{OOC: Just as a FYI, I won't be revealing my character's thoughts, so remember that he could have hidden motives or purposes. Also, Tyson, just remember that your char will NOT know what the plan is.}

Abram wipes the blood off his face with his hand then wipes his hand off on his clothes.

Abram: Well, I'll be out here in the hallway and will inform you if i spot any roaches coming.

Abram picks up his rifle and the doors close behind him.

Jason's voice comes out of the intercom. He is gasping, clearly exhasuted.

Jason: These.... these roaches are all over the place, I'm finished with the first air cycling room, I'm outside the second, and almost out of ammo. I'll check back after I'm done with all the rest. Graves out.

Ian contiues to type, and sometimes pauses for though a second or two.

{OOC: Although the above was filler, the real message is this. Flamez, from the skills I can see, you will probably be part of Vault security. make sure you read up on Fallout backgroud and have read all the previous ones for some background info. You can join right now (Maybe leading the evacuees out?), or join a few posts later, when we're all outside (or never).}

Jameson walks into the lounge.

Jameson: Everyone! i advice you to stay calm and follow me to the vault exit please!
Joey: What's going on?
Jameson: That will be explained after we get you out of here, right now all i can say is the vault as being attacked by loads of radroachs so let's go now!

Jameson then see's a radroach approaching someone, and start's shooting at it, after 5 shot's its dead.

Jameson: Phff, stupid roachs, come on let's go!

An intercom near Ian starts transmission.
Jason: (intercom) Alright, the last air vent system has been dealt with, its all set now all we need to do is evac, get everyone to the Vault door. Jason out.

Vaultwide communication: All personel please proceed to the Vault Door, this is not a drill, evacuation is in order, code red, evacuation is in order, proceed to the Vault Door.

Ian's pipboy beeps as he recieves a PM from Jason.

Jason: Alright, ill tell a security officer there to get a count of the people there, and I'll sweep the sleeping quarters, see if I can find anyone. I'll join you shortly, keep your eyes open for more roaches, you're all exposed over there. Jason out.

A security officer shortly recieves a message on his pipboy, takes out a scanner, and starts to scan the people. It proves to be a faster way of determining who they are and if they are present, than a headcount.

*Gizmo rushes to the exit and searches through the crowd of vault dwellers for his daughter, Claudia. He is shocked to not find her. Worried, he races to the medical area. A doctor is dashing out of there. He is about to lock the door, when Gizmo grabs him by the collar and questions him.*

Gizmo: Have you seen my daughter?

Doctor: What? I don't know, there are hundreds of people in this vault!

Gizmo: ANSWER ME!!!

Doctor: Is your daughter a girl of 10 called Claudia?

Gizmo: Yes.

Doctor: Nope. No luck.

Gizmo: LIAR!!!

*Gizmo chucks him to the floor, and opens the door to the Medical bay and looks inside, it is deserted, apart from a small girl, lying in a bed.*

Gizmo: That's her! Why were you trying to abandon her?

Doctor: Who would carry a girl into the hot, wasteland, and also, she would die from the rads!

Gizmo: I don't care.

*Gizmo puts her over his shoulder and races off to the place where everyone is gathered.*

{OOC: I know its a bit of a filler, but I promise she'll prove vital to the story.}
