  Four hours ter, I woke up very well-rested and ready to get bato the swing of things.

  *Yawn*

  What time is it…

  Sitting up, I checked my Pip-Boy for the time and right as the s lit up; I saw that it was 2:05 am.

  It's a bit early to be getting up, but I don't particurly want to sleep anymore. So I might as well head to my b and load myself up with as many of my resources as I hold and when I'm done doing that, I'll go to the gym to get a workout in. However, before I do any of that, let me check up on my robots and see how they're doing.

  Following that thought of mine, I used Mechu-deru, which I've been being increasingly more profit with, and checked my robots to see how much progress they've made. What I discovered was that my robots had finished pag as much as they possibly could onto both Hauler and my hauling bots. They had filled them to the brim with a variety of resources and materials, which meant they were ready to move out as soon as the Amata and the ghoul brothers woke up.

  At the same time that I was cheg the robots here at the vault, I iigated the situation back at the facility with one of my other thought processes. What I found there was that my robots hadn't entered any issues whatsoever and were actually progressing just fine. Despite how things were progressing without issue over there, I did notice that robots w on scrapping the vehicles out in the parking lot were rapidly closing in on having the st of them scrapped.

  Taking a closer look through my robots' vision I could see they probably had around a weeks worth of nonfuning cars left to gh before they reached the point of me needing to either start sending them out to scrap the cars along the road or divert them to help to get the power pnt version sped up. If I do the tter, I'll o figure out what I want to do to gather resources to fuel my operations and manufacturing needs.

  Good, they have that all taken care of and have entered even a single issue while I was asleep. As great as that is, I'm ing closer and closer to running out of my reserves of scrap... It's probably time I started putting that Metal Detector perk of mio use so I begin looking for deposits of ore near my home. Ohat I use for building and making more robots, ons and expanding my ammo reserves.

  With my robots checked up on, it's time to do my part and proceed to my b to get myself loaded with as many resources as possible.

  *Growl*

  But first a quiack.

  Hopping out of my bed, I took a quick shower, and the moment I was done ing myself off and going through the rest of my m routine, I moved on to the hing and rummaged through my snack stash. I sifted through my stash until I pulled out several energy bars loaded up with protein and nutrients. Dev those nutrient packed bars, I started heading for the door.

  I would've made something to eat but I don't want to wake up dad with my cooking so this will have to do.

  Done filling myself up, I exited my room and several seds ter I was out the front and striding through the barren and simplistic gray vault hallways to my b. Not passing by a single soul, I reached the front of the door of my b in record time and headed inside. I then made my way over to the portion of the b I had dedicated to st the variety of items and resources I accumuted over the years.

  It took me a while, but eventually had my iory filled just about to the brim with only enough capacity left for a few hundred pounds. My reason for not filling it all the way was in case I came across anything of value on my return to my new home.

  Now that I'm loaded up as well, I have a pretty good idea how many trips it's going to take my meical men ao transport everything over. From my estimations, it shouldn't take us more than five more trips bad forth to get the rest of my things transferred to the former RobCo Facility, and sihat's the case I think I'll spend the couple of days doing just that.

  And the day the st of my stuff has finally been transferred, I'll explore the nearby metro with Amata and my robots and clear it of all its inhabitants so I get to work oing it linked up with my home. Additionally, while I'm doing that I use my Metal Detector perk to see what sort of resources are nearby. Hopefully, there are some halfway det deposits in the viity of where I pn to do the tunneling to ect with the metro.

  With an item box full of loot, I proceeded to the gym , i oing a workout in. A bit of walking through the gray vault hallways ter, I arrived at the frorance of the gym. Entering on inside, I retrieved a towel just in case and began w out by applying my carry weight onto my body. I spent a few hours there w out and when I decided to call it quits; I checked my Pip-Boy for the time once again and right as the s lit up; I saw it was 5:58.

  I have a bit more time left till everyone is up. What to do... After thinking about it for a sed, I think I'll head to the pool to get a swim in. Yeah, that doesn't sound like too bad of an idea. I do miss being able to swim whenever I please. I will definitely have to see about getting a pool built. Though that will have to wait till I get the reverse osmosis system built in the facility to treat and purify the radioactive water supply.

  ing to a decision rather fast, I left the gym and walked to the pool to swim for the hour and after that hour of swimming, everyone should be up, or at least Amata will be. And knowing her she'll likely than not be letting herself into my home by the time I'm doh my swim.

  So the hour, I swam bad forth in the pool fod knows hos and when the one hour mark rolled around; it was time for me to head home. Thus, I swam with enough force to just hop on up and out of the pool, a feat that no normal human would've been capable of. Drying myself off, I made my way over to the locker room, sed back over to my dry clothes and as soon as I was finished ging, I tinued on my way to the exit and into the expansive hallways of the vault to my home.

  As I was nearing my pce, I detected Amata's presen my home already, so I headed on iealthily. From there, I crept up behind her while she was i cooking breakfast and hugged her from behind, spooking her for just a split sed before she rexed.

  "Moh, Harold, don't scare me like that. You nearly gave me a heart attack." She said with a somewhat flushed face, pretending to pihough she khat I knew she liked it when I would sneak up on her and my arms around from behind.

  "Are you sure about that, Amata? You know I know you love it when I ambush you from behind because it gets your heart rag." I teased.

  Seeing her getting embarrassed, I diverted from that topic with my arms still ed around her waist. "Moving on from that. What are you making?"

  "Well, I'm making ba, eggs, sausage, and toast for all of us, sihis will be the st meal we'll be able to share with our dads for a while." She said, still somewhat red faced. Though dispying a small smile and giving off a vibe that she was clearly happy and satisfied with the current situation.

  "Sounds good. I 't wait. But you're wrong about this being that st meal we'll have with our dads. We'll be ing bad forth from Vault 101 and our new home five more times in the wo days to get the rest of my things moved over. So we'll be able to see our dads quite a few more times before we're out there on our own for a period."

  Seeing her brighten up at what I just informed her of, we chatted for another minute before I let her go and started helping out by getting the table set. Once everything was set up, I began assisting with whatever else o be done. Whided up not being much due to the fact we were only preparing a simple meal. Not too long after that, dad showed up on the se and made his coffee, followed closely by Amata's father, the overseer.

  So as the two old men were discussing an assortment of topics regarding the vault and occasionally one about Amata and me, us two kept preparing. The moment all the food was ready, I helped Amata bring everything to the table and mushed our dads to the simple dining table.

  Around 30 or so minutes in, we finished eating, so we spent the 10 making small talk. When we fihat up, everyo up and began journeying up to the surface where the main vault door was located. I would've sidetracked arieved the three ghoul brothers, but they were already at the exit waiting to head out, so we made our way there at a det paot too slow nor too fast.

  Just a heads up, I'm starting a bordernds fic so a good portion of my focus will be on that for a while. This means releases for the fallout fic will be pretty infrequent until I release the new fan fic publicly.

  Shameless plug, I have a Patreon you read ahead and support my work on. It gives you access to every chapter I have written across all my works, including those I've yet to release, and the ability to vote in monthly polls that will determine what I'll be w on for a portion of that month.

  If that sounds like something you'd be ied in, you find the link for it in my bio and on the discord server. Also, I run chapter annous through the discord, so if you want to know when the chapter is out, you find out there.

  Up to date on Fallout Wastender? Looking for something else to read? Then go chey other work, Wastend queror, it's pretty simir to this.
