#Chap10 - war... war never changes

A year has passed since I arrived at this place, cold, dark, devoid of life and yet so full of all that frightens us. All our nightmares lived here and all were very real.

The days here pass slowly, new people come and go. I can no longer hear the dark whispering. The mourning and distant cries were replaced by the children's laughter, people talking, friendships happen and commerce takes place between ours and other communities like us.

But this does not mean peace, evil is still among us, rooted in the world trying to suppress us. We will continue to fight, we will continue to live.

"I have never advocated war except as means of peace, so seek peace, but prepare for war. Because war... War never changes. War is like winter and winter is coming." - Ulysses Grant

After a few minutes listening, I hear whispers without being able to understand what they were saying, there was silence...

Protected by the dark shadows of the devastated building used as shelter, we try to peek whose outside when some laughter interrupts the silence.

Dogmeat begins to run towards the sounds. My heart freezes when i see him walk away from me. I run after him trying to protect me at the same time when I see ... a child!
She was in the company of her father with a robot to protect them from the many dangers everywhere, a Protectron.

As I met and talked to her father, an NCR trooper and the Protectron, laughter echoed through the bare walls of this dead city as a breath of fresh air while the child played and ran with Dogmeat.

The danger is always lurking and rarely sleeps but I was so happy to find someone alive just as me and my faithful companion.

All I could think of was: Life at Last

🎧 The Show Must Go On

"Empty spaces, what are we living for?
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?
The show must go on
The show must go on
Yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm learning (I'm learning), I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning (turning, turning, turning), 'round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on (yeah yeah)
Ooh, inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Yeah
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly my friends
The show must go on, yeah
The show must go on
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On with the show
Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
(On with the show, on with the show)
Show (show must go on, go on)"

A journey begins a lonely one...
Knowing the world and what surrounds it these days is not easy, because everything that moves sees you as a hunter or a prey.

I seek for a life, any form of life. Someone who rides with me on this journey, someone who makes it worth living, who gives me a reason to be part of the hunters and not the preys...

This lonely life can not last any longer. I'll search for you and find you, even if it takes me to hell, which i have the feeling that i just walked into...
Give me a sign and I promise to find you!

The word spread all over the place, and other travelers came, such as merchants.

But as they come, they also leave quickly, for there is not much here. I still think how I discovered Dogmeat here... alone and so small, and then I smile.

The few people who stayed here after the arrival of the NCR trooper were several times robbed by outsiders. More to come, I can feel it.

I will stay to help these people and more troopers are coming but I do not know if they will be enough.
Maybe.. not enough time!
