[18.6][0057] Back in Safeumary, While Still Preparing for the Gameworldgame to Truly Start (Direct continuation of the story post before this one)

The Seekaplayers, there in the 4SVR Predoomsday WashingtonDC, observed a familiar scene as a godsaurus attacked WashingtonDC Harbour that was called that despite being some difference from the central WashingtonDC. During the 21st Century the capital city had sprawled outwards as far as the eastern coast. Five, hulking, Patriodians were firing huge rifles at the creature. Rocket-shells exploded, as they hit the creature, as did volleys of rockets, bigger missiles, and mininukarockets. Lasercannons spat short lived pulsebeams at it. A large, advanced, capsule shaped battleship was also blasting away at the creature but was also using cruise-missiles and torpedoes.

They were in a the top of a tourist serving tower, in an enclosed observation bay, which was deserted by others as was expected as they had been sent away by official civil defense orders.

Perhaps realising its limits, the godsaurus turned and slipped away out of the harbour waters.

The harbour was the result of the use of an experimental disintegration bomb during the Second American Civil War. In theory it had left no radiation as a result of its destination but stories persisted of strange phenomena taking place in the harbour, and close to it, including the appearance of the amphibious godsaurusi. 

Shendy was in a pretend Civil Defense Department body armour suit designed more to deal with home defense, emergency response and such like but CDOs, Civil Defence Officers, had often ended up helping to fight a wide range of threats; that included rogue robots, madraiders, New Soviet infiltrators and alien intruders.

Shendy spoke to the others there who also had their shapersuits disguising them as CDOs; that is Sculder, Mulder, Machomuch, Sagesmart, Gunslingerjo, and TechiSue. There was one elemental who was invisible and that was Fireini. With them was a new recruit, a modular changeable robot disguised as a troubledroid of the kind used by the WashingtonDC CDD; 'her' name was Rondomondo who could disguise herself as more than just a robot.

Shendy sighed. "Show seems to be over, folks, but I think I know why we were sent to observe what just happened. The use, of the experimental disintegration weapon, somehow opened, or helped to open, a transdimensional rift through which the godsaurusi came through from their original homeworld. There is no way that such gigantic creatures could arise from local conditions, at least no so quickly as the first godsaurus sighting took place just four months after the disintegration weapon was detonated. What if more than just the godsaurusi came through that rift and at least some were far more dangerous than even those giant, nuclear, dinosaurs?"

Sagesmart, who had stopped using his title so much but who still acted like a professor, spoke. "Isn't there a museum, in WashingtonDC, dedicated to the Second American Civil War?"

Shendy shook her helmeted head. "There is a unofficial museum linked to the disintegration blast and its aftermath but it may not be here in this 4SVR Predoomsday scenario. We will now go and try to find it."

So they descended down a spiral rampwell, easier for robots and small electric vehicles to use than stairwells, until they came out at street level. Along a side street they went, past a row of seedy pawnshops, sexshops and basic virtual reality arcades plus much else of the same ilk. The tawdry looking museum was not only closed down but locked up firmly. An official note stated that the museum had been closed down due to structure safety concerns.

Getting past the locks, designed for common citizens to deal with, was easy and then they were in a lightly dusty, quite sturdy, looking interior. There were display cases with paraphernalia from the 'disintegration incident' and its aftermath. A rowboat was about a quarter missing and thankfully, for the two people in it, they had both survived. That was the seeming irony of such weapons that one could be very close to the effect but still survive. Except that, according to a sign board, there, both men had died only months later from illnesses that experts could not identify. Secret government efforts had gone into rounding up 'close survivors' and quarantining them in comfortable research sites.

Another display case showed photographs of a mysterious submarine like vessel, which easily could have been one, but with a strange fish like shape and outward appearance to it even to the inclusion of eyes, gills and scales. They were photographs that were a little blurry despite great efforts, made through computer usage, to clear them up.

In other display cases were photographs of what seemed to be a more modern version of the Titanic luxury ocean liner and on its side was Titanic II, a great silver metallic saucer half submerged with cyborgmans on top of it, three Viking longboats filled with fearsome looking women warriors, a great sea serpent perhaps from a dinosaur related historical era, a giant baby in a great floatation device looking amused-bemused as she glowed with yellow-white energies, an oversized World War Two Nazi Uboat submarine or at least something akin to it, and some other shapes of vaguer imagery.

Mostly there had been the appearance of odd, floating, flotsam-jetsam and even dead bodies. The authorities, including the XAISA, had been very busy investigating the harbour and some areas had been sealed off from most people.

Sculder spoke. "Our particular taskforce had nothing directly to do with our agency's investigations into the 'disintegration incident'. Indeed we, of XAISA Taskforce Alpha, came to suspect that the XAISA involved in that program were not genuine agency people. No, that taskforce seemed to be made up of fake members that were supposed to be from a few government organisations and some NGNCOs  (non government, non corporate, organisations)."

Shendy shook her head, as if to her own thoughts. "None of this was in the original 4SVR scenario, of Predoomsday DC, that we created with supercomputer assistance. The real museum, here, was not a real one but a cheap trick to con tourists. It was unstable so the authorities did close it down. We SQuins had a shared dream, or would the word vision be more appropriate, of this place being just as it is now. We tried to get into it, through programming, but were locked out somehow. So somebody-something wanted us to come here."

Foxulder responded. "More likely wanted one of you SQuins to do so."

Shendy answered. "No, I think that reliable witnesses were needed."

After that there were only a few more displays, a small reading room with bookcases full of publications and a 3Dprojector but not much else.

Just did a whole lot of editing, changing, to take this story topic away from being a fanfic to being original. It may be worth you reviewing it but I will soon be noting down all the changes, to words, that I have made.

[Maharg67]

Editing has proven to be more demanding than I had hoped it would be so will take a few re-edits to fully change from fanfic to non fanfic. If you wish to, and find words needing change, you could point them out.

[19.1][0058] Based in a Gaiacology in US Army Bunker 456DC Below Cratertown

The use, of a medium wishling, turned part of the large, surviving, bunker into a Gaiaregain Order Outpost going from a bare, broken, area to a gaiacology in its own right. It would be their embedded identity, their reason for existing on Doomsworld and actively in the Doomsgame or at least it would be how they started out. What changes, that would happen in future, were unknown.

Their technologies were mostly a mixture of unique Gaiaregain ones, a few Predoomsday hitech ones and much of Postdoomsday times. In projection form they went over the gaiaology's interior, utilities and other resources. Because of painful lessons, arising from past naivety, the Gaiaregain were heavily armoured-armed in many ways as in that location itself. Still they had hydroponics growing more than just foods, a small garden domechamber, along with plants dotted through out the location. The interior was designed to be naturalistic, comforting and comfortable to a moderate degree.

Along with the Seekaplayers, there at the time, there were Gaiaregain NPCs (Non Player Characters) of humans, androids, adapted mutaghoulmans, robots and more including animals.

A holographic projection of Professor John Greenway, being one of the five Predoomsday founders of the Gaiaregain Order, was wearing a typical jumpsuit type business suit of the late 21st Century USA. "The USA is closer to being the DSA, the Disunited States of the Americas, despite the increasingly brutal efforts of the USCG (US Central Government) to change this. From Alaskanada to the far north to the southern most tip of Southchilia there is fragmentation, rebellion, civil war and foreign interference, perhaps even alien infiltration."

The holographic recording was from the year 29PD. In that same year the often controversial Elvis Lapelvis was awarded his 101th platinum digital album, a flight of over 30 grey flying saucers was spotted by 100s of reliable witnesses over Paris of the EPEMU (European Political Economic Military Union) and self proclaimed World President Fritz Brown was grounded to his basement bedroom, by his mother, for not taking his medication.

Shendy, as the only SQuin 'there', sat in a chair and in her Gaiaregain jumpsuit with its slim boots. The jumpsuit was quite tight against any body and it was so on her as well. "Rattanboy, stop peeking at my body, at least not so much, and focus on the message. We must learn as much about the Gaiaregain Order, its history and those behind it, as we can."

Rattanboy blushed. "I wasn't just peeping at your body unless you count your gorgeous blue eyes. It sounds like a speech, or a lecture, that Professor Greenway gave more than once."

Shendy smiled. "Thank you, sweetie, for the compliment about my eyes. Professor John Greenway, like the others of the Gaiaregain Five, never did show in public except through electronic media. A few people claimed that they did not truly exist. The order, itself, spoke of the need for intense security because of the many death threats made against the five but others, also under such pressure, did show up in public. A minor questling has been spent, by the Gamelords, and we need to track down the truth behind the Gaiaregain Five but mostly about the professor."

They watched the recording, of a holographic projection lecture carried out in many locations worldwide over a period of about a decade. Then, as husband and wife, they went and had a shower together as they sometimes did.

[19.2][0059] Based in a Gaiacology in US Army Bunker 456DC Below Cratertown(Direct continuation of the story post before this one)

All of the Seekaplayers were now in both the gameworld, and back in Safeumary, at the same time. This now included both Shimmy, K9herois, Shorey, Stanley, Batmanbot and See3pio. Of the Seekaplayers Sharry was married to Gavag, Shimmy to K9herois, and Shendy to Rattanboy but there would be more changes to come.

Now the Seekaplayers were those on-in the gameworld and the Seekaservers were those in Safeumary even if they were the same individuals. That is the humans Sharry, Shendy, Shimmy, Shorey, Shurly, Sculder, Le'Nerd, Gavag, Machomuch, Rattanboy, Foxulder; the cyborg animals Amphibioto, Gunclawdus, K9herois, Stanley, Wingfastus; the robots Robogirlie, MrCarryon, Trieyebot, Batmanbot and See3pio; the elementals Airius, Fireini, Earthus, Electria and Waterari; the androids Gunslingerjo, DocSmith, TechiSue, Junglejane and Sherlockmar.

The SQuins kept working best just as themselves. Somehow they would always remain distinct from the others though they did not emphasize this state of affairs themselves.

Le'Nerd, who was truly 'technonerd',  had been largely in the background quietly playing electronic games, constructing very small robots, making active figurines, and often doing such workings for himself and the team; he also made toys for the very young. Foxulder, and Sculder, normally worked together focusing on detective and forensics tasks. Gavag acted as a very tough, very skilled, all rounder but there was 'something' about him that promised much more to arise. Machomuch was amazingly strong but not much less enhanced in other physical ways while being far smarter than his appearance first suggested. Rattanboy was canny, cunning, being an amazing street fighter well versed in a wide range of criminal skills from forging to hacking along with much else. Sagesmart was not just a 'professor' but an actual sageprofessor or at least he had been; he did not like to talk about it but he was a supergenius in some fields and a genius in many more.

Amphibioto was the second cyborg animal to come forward as a shapeshifter being able to be a human, a amphibious humanoid or a creature with lungs but also with gills augmentation. Gunclawdus was a brutally efficient, living fighting machine but was gaining other skills and capacities.

K9herois continued on being a shapeshifter but also becoming braver as he learned that his fears were based on his special spiritual psychic abilities. It turned out that he had started out as a human who then became a shapeshifter but his own history was largely lost even to him.

Stanley was a good home defender and continued to work well with people, especially the young, animals and other lifeforms including plants; he soon proved to be a keen gardener with a shining green thumb. Wingfastus flew fast, and agile or slower with even more amazing agility for he could adapt his cyborg body.

As a robot Robogirlie could disguise herself as a young woman as long as she wore certain type gear and adapted her body in some ways. She was otherwise efficient in many capacities. MrCarryon had many capacities but his name gave away his main ability which was to store away much 'stuff' in ways that were very surprising, even fantastic to some extent. They were going to become more so. Trieyebot had multiple eyes that could 'see' in multiple ways including through certain materials. She floated through the air as a globe that could dispatch smaller trieyebot types as remoterobots.

Batmanbot continued to serve See3pio best along with others in quiet, efficient, support functions. See3pio found that he could become three of himself both in Safeumary and on Doomsworld; the celestial type baby remained back in Safeumary with just one of him.

The five elementals were still working out their exotic abilities and learning still how to use them.

Gunslingerjo, DocSmith, TechiSue, Junglejane and Sherlockmar were all powerful, sophisticated, multiskilled androids with secondary specialties, linked with their outward personalities and appearances; that is shooter, doctor, technician, melee fighter and detective in a general sense.

[19.3][0060] Based in a Gaiacology in US Army Bunker 456DC Below Cratertown(Direct continuation of the story post before this one)

Water flowed down, over a enhanced-reinforced concrete floor of the military bunker chamber. It flowed over, and around the skeletal remains of soldiers in their body-armour and tough combat fatigues plus other gear. Their weapons, such as autocarbines and lasercarbines, were also there and were rusting. From some of them stuck strange, alien looking, metallic spines that seemed to have been shot through the air.

Then there were the entangled mess of skeletal remained, twisted and distorted, of that which had been attacking them; could they have been humans or even animals? There was no clear answer.

So Foxulder, and Sculder, returned to Gaiacology 456DC as they now called it, partly after the designation of the bunker itself. MrCarryon, the robot, took a whole lot of samples with him along with military gear. That was only after many digital recordings, readings, had been made of that scene and the data also taken back to an outer quarantined, secured, section of the Gaiaregain location. The android, DocSmith, would assist them with forensics work.

Shimmy frowned as K9herois gave out a series of short, sharp, yips. Then, as a dog, he spoke gruffly. "Something bad is here that is like, but not like, wraiths or at least not like the ones that attacked us in the fake school; the wraiths, like the ghosts, may not have been fake."

Shimmy nodded. "We need to question over generalised assumptions such as the true nature of the highschool, teknacomplex and bunker were misled into going into and even why they were set up the way that they were. We need to track down any cult temple, here, if there is one to find."

Sharry, the other SQuin there, materialised a single use decoy device and threw it through the air very far ahead of the group. It went a surprising distance before a laser beam destroyed it, coming from a turret hidden amongst some rusting warmachines and big battlerobots. "Just a hunch I had that we need to be very careful about remaining, active, technical threats like that one."

They neutralised the turret with the use of an EMP handgrenade. It turned out to be the only such threat remaining in that area. Time, and lack of maintenance, had harmed network-systems more than had deliberate attacks or sabotage.

It was a typical military bunker, in most ways, but soon proved to house civil workers both of the blue and white collar types. Evidence was found of scientific research staff living in dormitories by themselves except for actual high ranking scientists. The same seemed true of others of higher status. There were the remains of basic androids, remoterobots more than more sophisticated versions of androids and robots.

There was plenty of space left to explore when the five returned to Gaiacology 456DC.

Term 'Gaiaology' has been replaced with 'Gaiacology'.

[19.3][0060] Based in a Gaiacology in US Army Bunker 456DC Below Cratertown(Direct continuation of the story post before this one)

"Rules have been changing, have never been firmly established before now, because of Gamegod Factions clashing with other such factions of control over the Doomsgame and its design. This helped lead to the troubles in Sanctumary. Celestial forces have intervened to establish new order, rules, regulations and other restrictions on the Doomsgame and the Doomsworld but also the Gamegodfolk."

Shurly, in the gaiacology, spoke at an open meeting of Seekaplayers and Gaiaregain NPCs there. "Until now changes have often been sudden, with out warning and at least partly chaotic. We may have at least one ally amongst the Gamegods, what ever they really are."

See3pio spoke. "Cheeky ones say that the Gamegods are not real gods but living ones of higher true immortals as exiled from their own home realms because of criminality and the behavior as extreme social misfits. They were tricked, seduced, perhaps by the GreatEnemy, what ever that truly is, and gained their current classification. Instead of cooperating positively together to escape, they had been fighting each other; now that has been forced to end they can only do so, in a tightly regulated and in an indirect fashion, though sponsored gameteams."

Sharry spoke. "Nothing much more we can say on that issue; more research needs to be done."

Alarms rang but then ceased. A female, computer created, voice spoke from small speakers. "Alert, wraith like entities attempted to breach the gaiacology but were easily repulsed by specialised energy shields."

Shendy spoke. "They may have been just scouting the area or what is out there has deepsensed us as some of us did them. Perhaps there is some kind of intelligence behind the 'wraiths' but let's hope not. The trouble with them being repelled by active energy shields is that now 'they' know about them. We will have to be very alert for trouble, both inside and outside of the gaiacology. Time to go to the next meeting topic."

Sharry took over. "The story, behind cratertown's name and how the crater came to be, goes back to ACW2 when an experimental disintegration warhead equipped, tactical, missile struck at the location. It seems likely, now, that it was aimed at the bunker that seemed to have been carrying out illegal research of some kind. It would not be a surprise if the disintegration superweapon was of the same type, but much smaller, than that which created the WashingtonDC Harbour. 'Things' came through rifts, opened there, so why not here also?"

Sculder spoke. "The distorted remains we found suggested large animals, most likely primates, were killed and then transmutated from within by a force intruding into them, most likely in a brutal fashion. Perhaps they were experimental monkeys or even bigger chimpanzees. DNA traces indicate they could easily have been clones thanks to what might have been a genetic engineer's genetic signature; anyway the nonclone ones were uncommon by then, highly protected and very valuable."

Yet again it came down to needing more data.

The meeting went on with more general, practical, business and a few seekaplayers falling asleep or similar type states.

[19.4][0061] Based in a Gaiacology in US Army Bunker 456DC Below Cratertown(Direct continuation of the story post before this one)

Wraiths attacked, across the large concrete chamber, like those that had been encountered in the F3I1S, the Fraudulent Three in One Scenario, as the fake highschool, teknacomplex and bunker were now being called. There had been a deepsense of the wraiths there being real but it  was here, now, more so. They were wiped out by UVELGs (ultraviolet enhanced) projecting short lived laser beams as pulsebeams or sweeping across the attackers as full on beams.

The surviving wraiths fled by turning to do so for the concrete had been adapted to stop them moving through them as they often could through solids. The denser, the mass, of a solid the more difficulty such entities had getting through them so the concrete had added layers of heavy mass which also strengthened them against other types of threat.

K9herois, who had detected the oncoming threat very early, was squatting as a dognoid (dog humanoid) holding a lasercarbine that was part cooling down as he had fired it many times with great accuracy. "They are not exactly like that which made dead bodies, of those they killed, distort as they did even as they animated them as maybe 'living dead'. Wraiths are alive, in some odd sense, as SQuins know."

Shimmy was close to K9herois, of course, crouched and hugged him. He had gained a giftling, from her, that had given him a respawning snack dispenser of hydrating, nutritional, snacks enjoyed by all three of his shapeshifter shapeforms. "Those wraiths wanted to die until the dark, subtle, powerful, presence that we deepsense drew them back; the wraiths want to escape its malignant control."

To gain reinforcelings  certain 'markerlings' had to be activated through achievements of certain goals even if they were unknown to those fulfilling them; so ran part of the latest briefing sent to them by their Liaison Gamelords who served the Gamegod Faction that supported-followed them as a gameteam. So now there was a soft sparkling shimmer and three UVELG turret-tripods materialised behind sandbag walls that appeared with them. The turrets had other weapons and an array of instruments. The minor reinforceling had activated automatically upon being gained. Other type gamelings could be gained through the achievement, in different ways, of markerlings. 

It was increasingly clear that the Doomsgame had its own Doomsmentality running it, as the last briefing had spoken of very briefly. The Doomsmentality was made up of Doomsminds of different types and responsibilities. Such information only led to far more questions than it answered even if they had not been asked in the first place.

Shurly, the other SQuin there with the Seekasquad, as now such groups were named, managed to activate a minor wishling that added robots to the mixture along with feeder boxes full of ammo for some of ammo and extra rechargeable battery packs. Then she activated a minor supplying to gain more fortifications, two more turret-tripods and added support resources for all of the turrets. With the now five turret-tripods were three sentrybots (sentry robots) being slower, heavier armoured, than the standard battlebot (battle robot).

Wraiths could mess with electronics so they needed special shielding but that was already true for protection from EMP weapons and the same type protection worked against both for, if close enough, wraiths could produce EMP effects.

Leaving behind the defences, along with some Gaiaregain NPCs as power armoured sentries, the nine member Seekasquad moved on. There was Shimmy, Shurly, K9herois, Trieyebot, Machomuch along with three Gaiaregain NPCs as generalist Gaiafollowers with secondary specialisations. They were the women Friana and Junelee along with the man Jack.

Trieyebot was with three deployed, smaller, remotetrieyebots that were also less intelligent as they relied on that of Trieyebot.

The immediate area, of chambers had not changed since Seekaplayers had been there before. They found the poorly hidden cult temple but it was not the same as the one that had been in the F3I1S. This was to one man who was a tall, blonde, eurowhite, figure in rather elaborately decorated command power armour. Glorymarshal Patriotstrong was his title as a superhuman patriot of the 'True USA' and a member of the Patriotstrong13; could they be the true Blondie13?

The reason that the temple was poorly hidden was that a wall, perhaps with a secret door formerly in it, had been destroyed violently. While the oddly lifelike statue had been untouched, the rest of the chamber had been largely ransacked. Displays were upset, items spilled across the floor, and other items were damaged to different degrees. It was not possible, at that moment, to see what could have been taken.

Shurly frowned. "Glorymarshal Patriotstrong looks like an older, more mature, version of one of the males of the BlondiePR13."

All heard her words except for the three NCPs who were programmed not to take attention of details outside of their scenario reality; or so it seemed to be at the time. Other temple chambers were collapsed except one storeroom half full of caretaking resources of a more practical nature.

The Seekaplayers, including NPCs as honorary ones, found the limitations of the accessible bunker. They ran into the destroyed area that blocked them off from the disintegration zone that was the bowl shaped crater of Cratertown. They knew very little about Cratertown except what had come from various clueling gained items and not so generous briefings from their patron Gamegods who tended to come across as 'patronising' through the Gamelords that served them.

Other exits, when open and not destroyed, led to a small, secret, underground monorail station. The Predoomsday USA had multiple such tunnels along with rather mysterious, long abandoned, ones going way back to early times of underground railways or, perhaps, even beyond that. During the ACW1 there were supposed to have been actual underground railway tunnels used to help slaves escape from the Confederacy; the carts, on the narrow gauge railways, were pulled by mine ponies well conditions to such environments.

The monorail station was long abandoned and seemed to have been well salvaged of anything that could be taken with fair speed. All  that was left were structures, utilities and other features that could not be so easily taken.

"No monotrains, no turrets, no robots, no vending machines including ones that sold tickets and no signs of past trouble either." Machomuch sighed. "Though there are doors leading perhaps to more valuable items."

Doors led to mostly desolated chambers be they travelers' service rooms, security chambers, offices, workrooms or other but there was one, quite large, heavily locked exception; many useful items were found there that those departing had probably not had been able to escape with but chose to store away. Except that somebody-something had seemingly made changes to what was there. A row of vending-machines, likely with respawning contents, were switched on along one wall beneath illuminating fluroflat lighting. Furniture was almost neatly arranged into a lounge area, a kitchenette, a bathing area with shower curtain on a rail plus wall shower fixtures, an inflated inflatable bathtub, a 3DTV wallscreen and even bookcases full of varied publications along with much else.

The very wrinkly 'old' woman stood in bibbrace overalls, gumboots and a wide brimmed straw hat. "About time you lot showed up as RetwriRothua said you would; now you can help fix up this place so its more secure or allow us to come and live with you Gaiaregainers or so he calls you; he always sounds a bit smug when he comes up with ideas like that and gets a bit sulky when we don't congratulate him. My name is MaHenly!"

MaHenly went on speaking with her softened Texas accent. "Well the others are taking a walk in the loopyloopem that is always a bit different but mostly familiar every time it is used; most of one's people prefer it that way. Wondering about the excessive wrinkles? It was an age extension research project that ended in unusual side effects for the experimental subjects or at least for the minority who lived through it. Was a POW (prisoner of war) serving in the US Southern Army against the US Northern Army. I assumed that the bunker belonged to our enemies until I learned that it served neither side in that stupid war. No, it was run by a damned foolish, brutal and quite insane militaristic scientific cult led by one Glorymarshal Patriotstrong."

Shimmy smiled. "We know about the 'Glorymarshal' though only in general terms; we have some idea of who-what he truly was and even might still be. That is a member of something we call the True Blondie13."

Shurly nodded. "Now you can tell us, as you know it, the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."

MaHenly shrugged. "It was worth a try. I was a lowly assistant scientist when I got frogmarched conscripted by cannon fodder hungry conscriptors, as they were called by the 'south' being a certain kind of recruiter who did not ask politely if one would like to become a soldier. They caused lots of trouble, being paid by the bounty, before being closed down by the government itself for breaking their own regs and stealing away essential works from the home front. Most were conscripted into punishment units, became convicts or were just executed."

Shimmy spoke to K9herois. "Regs is military slang for regulations."

K9Herois nodded his humanoid head. "I remember hearing that, but vaguely, when I was an exotic special forces soldier."

MaHenly sighed. "I served the mad cult as an assistant scientist after they learned about my skills and experience along with how I became conscripted. They believed me because I was far from the first such southern soldier, that they had captured, with such an experience. Still, I was fairly unique in being able to assist in their research work and they even gave me special privileges for doing so. When I was critical of the terrible experiments, and the horrible excuses made for them, they punished me by turning me into an experimental subject. Oh, here the sweeties come."

Changes that have been made and are still being sought out to change if necessary when it come from turning a fanfic into a non fanfic.

-What was NukaCola and other NukaCorp products, have become AtomicCola and other AtomicCorp products.

-The Teknacorp, Tekna Corporation, replaces Vault-Tech and other such corporations.

-SyndicatesDC remain the same because they already differed from those in the Fallout Games.

-Regulators had already become the Reregulators as in bring regulation back to once regulated areas or so is their official story.

-There are now mutaghouls as in mutated people being turned into ghouls or being ghoulified.

-Brotherhood of Steel vanished to become different orders of the OrderhoodDC that arose, into existence, in WashingtonDC; there are other OrderhoodDC orders.

-Talon Mercenaries become Clawfang Mercenary Order of command, administration, service-support, security, paramilitary, military and other suborders. Origin is mysterious and most, of those serving the order, know only what they need to know in order to fulfill their subcontracts or contracts. Clawfangmercs  go all the way from quite common thugmercs, thug mercenaries, to uncommon elite professional units.

-Megaton became Cratertown with some important differences; in the same way Rivetcity became Shipscity. Greyditch has become Greyburg in the same fashion as the previous two settlements have been renamed and altered.

-Other changes to be added in future.
