Meeting the Enclave and the start of the Fallout

Alexander arrived at the venue behest of Mr House.

Many paparazzi often stakeout at Alexander residence like a plague. Hoping to get a scoop. Some even tried to enter the sewage system just to enter the house...

He is rich... Considering how he is somewhat defacto one of the leaders of America in the shadows, being neutral to either the warhawk republicans of the 90s that wants to nationalized his company and the bleeding heart Democrats that sought to use his wealth to fund their crazy agendas like a communist, hadn't he already contributed enough and there is no racism as he forcibly pusbed forward the policies very early on that any colors is now no longer needed but merit in his company... But that not what he wanted...

A letter is sent to his residence... Bearing the insignia of a old friend of his that wished to invite him to a party of the Elites and in hindsight a concerns about the future...

"Mr. House... What do you want from me this time?" Alexander mutter as he is clothed in formal attire. As he read the letter.

The venue is in Washington, which Alexander refer it with sarcasm " The den of snakes and slaves that is for the blind sheep." As he knows why Andrew Ryan hate this sort of plague of politicians... Some of them voted because of feelings, others through nepotism, never a actual policies and Alexander would definitely loved the Imperium nobles compared to this foggy bastards at the Senate and Congress of both red and blue that sought to bring him down, despite of the fact that he lived more older than them. He would never give them the formula to live a long life. Tell me... "Would you loved incompetent immortal politicians at the white house that sold out the country for immortality? Being a ghoul would be more apt term for them."

As the car stopped he stepped out and a Codsworth staff awaited for him. The cause and effect of his arrival is that he forcibly jumpstart the technology race by a few decades.

"Sir, your invitation?"

Alexander simply flash the letter. And the machine stepped aside.

"Have a grand evening Mr.Alexander Solair. The staff inside will escort you to the venue."

"You too Henry." Alexander smiled as he was escorted by several staff bots... He is aware of the Automated that the venue had used as the general population is being displaced by robots... Only Alexander companies is majority staffed by humans that is not impacted by the automation of industries. And bribing is impossible as they already under Alexander payroll that assured them and their families is secured. Alexander looked at the Mr.Handy bots and protectrons loitering the area.

"They are pretty stupid to think that we could truly replaced humans fully with robots... How would we have consumer to buy our products, if the people don't have the income or savings... And expect government handouts for their survival?"

As he entered this venue, he could see plenty of elites that he have a working relationship, Some from West Tek, Nuka Cola, Sunset sarsaparilla, Robco industries and vault tec.

He noticed a old friend that approached him, he called him.

"Robert Edwin House, Thanks for the invitation! I was wondering where the man of Robco industry have been."

The man gave a smiled as he held out a handshake.

"Thank you for taking part in this gathering Alexander, you are practically the man and myth of what represents the American dream. With you here, I hope the chances of success is raised. "

Alexander whispered to him.

"Is it that serious?"

House whisper back.

"Yes, but I will be heading out on the stage soon to explain the situation at hand." He nodded as he left.

As Alexander spoke with one of his subsidiaries companies that is invited he heard a shout.

"Alexander solair, you got some nerve coming to this place!"

"Ah... John-Caleb Bradberton owner of nuka cola how nice of you to grace us with your bombastic presence. How's your new product going?"

"You... You... You!" John stuttered.

It was open secret that there was bad blood between them even more than sunset sarsaparilla vs nuka cola..

Many were interested with the new drama Alexander cooked up.

(Flashback)

Many times Nuka cola sent thugs to upset Alexander mining operations, ended up losing them and their beverage rivals gotten more investments and aquired by Alexander to hold ground against the beverage giant.

And He sought to use the powers of the government to pressure Alexander to release the his goons...

He arrived at the mines where Alexander was overseeing.

Only for him to have a odd reply.

"Huh? What's the people that sent after me?" Alexander looked at him as if he was dumb.

"Don't play dumb, release those people at once!"

"We only have murderers and criminals that is working at the uranium mines that is under the protection of the US Department of Defense and Commerce, so are you implying that you sent your men to the uranium mines? How thoughtful and a stellar citizen of America, I wish I was the president, so I would put the congressional medal for contributing to the war effort." Alexander smirked.

"I demand that I should see to it that my men gone missing in this place."

His irrational manner made Alexander became void of his emotions.

"Okay then... Let's go and find out about your missing people then."

As they were escorted by Alexander PMC, John wished that he shouldn't poked Alexander limits.

"What the hell is this!" John screams as he watch the cavern is filled with mechanical constructs busy doing their work. He watch as they have human bodies of different colors merged in this tracked vehicles.

"Magnificent aren't they? The perfect worker, and the Judicial courts have already deemed murderers and Sexual offenders as inhumane and stripped of their rights, now they are sentence to what I loved to call them servitors, Though they sent criminals that is falsely accused which I let them go after a year of labor in the mines... Though sadly they are able to only work in the most dangerous task such as mining uranium. And it helps keep Alcatraz sparkling clean."

"This is a human rights violation! I am telling congress-"

"Congress and Senate agrees with me Little Johnny, after all those politicians want to keep their states sparkling clean of criminals and their portfolio of being a good politicians for their reelection, State Execution is too expensive these days and keeping them in prison is a federal expenses, that is too much on some of the stingy treasurers... Tell me... Now where is your men in this place? Is it that one?" Alexander pointed one that is busy loading uranium ores to a cart.

"John Krueger, Murderer of seven and rampant robbery charges. Is he your man? Or how about that one, Emanuel Phizer, Butcher of A Hospital ward of babies... Johnny boy... All the people here are criminals, are the men that you lost is criminals? Are you a criminal little Johnny?" Johnny felt as if Alexander eyes turned void. He fought his battlefields in the business, but facing him directly... A man that almost lived a hundred years or perhaps more is staring deep into his soul.

"Tick tock... What is your answer little Johnny? I don't have time to play games with you as you are damaging the interest of the US government of your insensitive talks."

"I... Might have forgotten them somewhere..."

"Good call... Now would you excuse me, Stellar citizen, and don't try this stunt unless you want to end up like the servitors below... There won't be next time, mr. Nuka cola... I have a mine to oversee" Alexander patted Johnny shoulders, his last words felt into the inch of Johnny soul... He took one last look as the servitors cried out in pain as they worked nonstop every day till the day they die. If they died of course.

Johnny faced the man before him that is overbearing and does not hesitate to use force...

And a Military veteran of several wars that shaped America the way it is today to boot. Does he have a say in the matter when he dodged the draft?

"So little Johnny... Are you having a blood pressure of using too much of your beverage? I could give you a free trip to my hospitals." Alexander smiled that was not reaching his face. Those who didn't know about Alexander would have applauded for him being too kind to his rivals, but those that is aware of what he truly is... And those that learned... Have a chills up their spine as he would not hesitate to servitor the criminals and no doubt that some of their corporate spies ended up in the mines and he didn't bother with them.

"No thank you..Sorry for your time... I seem to have a business deal with ." Johnny fled into some of group that is too busy to care of the drama that is happening.

Alexander looked around and spoke with a regal manner.

"My apologies for this debacle with Sir Johnny that ruined such a wonderful evening, I would like to inform you that you have a 50% discount on all luxury goods my company produced and your Families and your executives have free passes on medical checkup for a Year and a one month paid trip to Fiji and the Bahamas with my account. " He spoke with such words that made other cheered for him after all having free stuff from the richest man in America is like a dream to some. And his medical facilities is enough to cure all known diseases.

It dampen the sourness of the venue.

Mr House stood on the venue with his speech quite a somber news indeed.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I would love to inform you that Nuclear Annihilation is upon us."

It made people paused a bit.

"By my calculations, we would be heading to a nuclear fallout in twenty years time. And the resource wars would intensifies by the day in Europe marches in the middle east and while the masses is unaware of it, we are running out of resources. Our oil reserves is the only abundant in the world. And the nuclear clock is ticking."

'House... you missed it off the mark by a day.' Alexander though to himself.

"I would like to inform you that while we are here, Men and women that is bound by profits, our wealth is linked by the consumers, the people, and I would like to propose a nulear fallout shelters that is enough for the masses to stay safe from the fallout."

"Does the Government knows about this?" One spoke out.

"Yes, We in vault tech have already agreed to make a fallout shelters for the government. Every state have already 912 shelters being constructed." the CEo spoke out.

'Hell no! I not going into the shelter, I know what happens to those that are rich and famous that enter there! I am not going to be a guinea pig for some sicko '

"Pulowski Preservation Services, have already made shelters for the masses if they don't have the dime or influence they could enter my persevation shelter."

'That's even worse! Your shelter is a living tomb! A dime can save your life? Fuck you, you just want to get the money directly.'

"Mr Alexander solair, do you have a idea how to handle the fallout?" Mr house looked at his friend expectantly.

"I will make my fallout shelter for the masses, Remember... No matter what wealth we gathered, it is useless if it doesn't grow. I have constructed a space station for the rich and affluent that is able to live away from the bombs and you can pack up your bags and live in there in a months time. And I would like to asked Pulowski Preservation Services one thing... How many did you managed to create?"

The man looked nervous as he simply spoke out.

"About... 350 pod in each state..."

"Then you are just a corpse stealer and your shelter is pretty much a death trap for giving false hope, Remember Everyone, no matter how rich you are. The people is the ones that kept our wealth going, no dollars will keep you safe from the barbarians that lost their civility, dollars would not mean anything as the world would end making our wealth useless. The people is the resources to make the nuclear wastelands returned to normalcy, you can argue that robots would save the earth, I would tell you this... Who would provide maintenance to them? And who would gathered resources to build our beloved nation to its glory? Our nation is surrounded by enemies that wants our resources and technology. Russia, china and even our European Allies that would tear off their facade if we are too weak, we can replace human with bots, but we can't replace human lives to be our consumers of our products and staff for our companies, would you like a robot eating Blamco Mac and cheese? No! We have to think strategically on the long term, how long does the radiation would last? 10-20? Or even a 1000 years? And what creatures would evolve under such radiation that it would change the landscape, that my opinion as a former General of the United States Army." Alexander smiled confidently. He already got Void Shields ready to raised up in Texas and Fallout shelters that is made by him is enough to keep the entire population safe from the fallout. Why would he need the experiment to happen in his shelters?

Many of them pondered about it. Mr house cough a bit

"Thank you for the speech Alexander solair. I would like to express my gratitude for your fiery speech. And any of those who would like to contribute to the end of the world."

As the corporations CEOs gave their words of stocking up the shelters as there is profits to be made. Many of the rich and affluent approach Alexander to query about the space station.

"Is it safe? The space station I mean."

"Of course and you have a decent sized rooms to accommodate your family as well. All I need is your influence, not wealth to make the masses join my shelters."

"Is that so? I heard that you are introducing a new apocalypse credits... Thrones is it? Can we convert our wealth in it?" Another asked.

"Of course... And for people that approach me now your wealth is 1:1 ratio and those that approach me later is 1:15 due to inflation and the credit works in the space station. After all, early bird get the worm in every business. And if you join me now, I ensure that your business would be kept intact and your staff and their family would be entering my fallout shelters."

Alexander smiled as he gave his business deals that made them follow him willingly. Those that supposed to die, only a third of them joined the Vault tech shelters, not believing Alexander deals, but he couldn't care less about them. They going to be lab rats anyway.

As the venue ended.

Alexander met Mr. house alone.

"Must be tiring huh Old friend?"

"With the new business deal always occurs in the apocalypse, I say... I do have a interest in Las Vegas..."

"If the world end, the government failed, and that city still remains alive with you in it, I will definitely find you there old friend."

"I sure you do. Thanks for believing in me."

"That's what friends and business partners are for. Any news about Vault tech approach to me?"

"Possibly neutral. In worse case. Hostile due to the fact that you took several clients away from their list. Anyway... I overheard about the thrones you implemented... Can I convert some of my wealth as well?"

"Sure, and I even give a discount as well. Without consumers how would we sell our products after all." Alexander laughed.

As he left the venue alone, as he waited for his car

He was surrounded by agents... One of them stepped out and spoke.

"Mr Alexander, we would like to invite you to our organization."

"Is my driver dead?"

"No worries, Mr Alexander, we know you care about your staff, we just had him drugged and drove your car home."

"How thoughtful of you. Now then shall we go?" Alexander followed them to a luxury car and the agent entered the back seat and beckon for him to enter. As the car drove in the heart of Washington they needed up in the Lincoln memorial, the agent went behind the statue and inputted codes and the Lincoln statue moved aside revealing a entrance.

"If you please, Mr Alexander. There's someone that would like to speak with you."

Alexander followed the agent and dim lights lighted up the corridor and exited to a underground facility that is filled with scientist and staff. Several guards armed with T-12 armors with .50cal machine guns marched by as they resume patrol. And on the ceiling is a banner of the Enclave swaying softly In the wind.

A well dressed man approached them.

"Mr Alexander, I heard so much about you. We hope that you would we liked to invite you to our organization. As you have considerable wealth and influence, we can reshape america from the ashes of the old."

"Isn't the Senate and Congress supposed to be the ruling party?"

The man sighed."Look I will be clear, the world needs a reset, both party is getting out of control, and their foreign policies have hasten the nuclear clock. Our men at the venue have heard about your little speech and hoped that you would provide funding and equipment for us to rebuild America from fallout, and we even want to give you a seat in the council of the enclave for your meritorious service for the nation."

"I have some conditions, If I was to join your organization ."

"Shoot."

"One, Leave my fallout shelters that I am erecting across America alone and Texas is under my jurisdiction as you have the Vault TEC do your little experiments, I need people to reclaim America. And I should be legally able to retain a army, the fallout will come a age of barbarians and civilized people should be armed. And I will not attack any enclave institutions unless if I was attacked."

"Edward house already have the Las Vegas in exchange for his technical support. So it's possible."

"Two, I will be not involved with your experiments. No matter how much you want to do it. I will condone it."

"Agreed."

"Third and lastly before I join your organization. And I will provide the funding and equipment, free of charge. Is that you inform me a month prior before the bombs fall."

"That is a difficult request but I will agree to it."

"Where is the contract, words is just empty speak if you have a signed contract, humans have a fickle memory after all."

"Of course, we have a lawyer here to sign up the contract. Glad to have aboard Mr Alexander. God Bless America and God Bless the Enclave."

"God bless America to you sir, may our corporation be fruitful as our founding fathers Intended." Alexander smiled.

After Alexander left the hidden base.

Alexander eyes turned gold and a different persona came forth.

"They are fools...I am not satisfied with this nation, this world shall be conquered for the Imperium... My limbs called me, but I cannot do so in a world of false civility...soon... Come a war that is so weak that the age of strife is a but a accomplishment to those that survived... I pity the masses... Of the rulers that want the world to end.."

As the years go by, Alexander have made several Imperium Bases across America except California and Democrats states for some reason as politicians lobbied that he should be kept out the states they own, as they made excuses that his buildings is too ugly and affect the zoning laws (A/n: Zoning laws is a bitch right?)

And fallout shelter is erected by the dozens each week enough to hold the population of each state that allowed him to build.. those rich and famous that agreed to his deals ended up in the space station in orbit. Artist, musicians, Businessman flooded the Space port in Austin, Texas every day as the word of mouth begins to spread in the upper classes.

Then as the oil sources began to dwindle around the world, oil rigs and oil fields began to dry up, causing the price of oil to skyrocket, making goods and services to inflate like crazy forcing people to buy nuclear powered cars, only Texas and Alaska is the only two states that have oil left in this world. And Texas became the Exporter of Oil on the behest of Congress to maintain relation around the world and they cheapen the price for a short while. And Texas is the only states that still have gas powered cars that have fuel that is bought by cents. And the price is somewhat stable due to the Texans Thrones...

America started to invade China to moved the problems elsewhere for the people to vent their frustrations of a incompetent government .

The Chinese began to attack Anchorage, Alaska out of retaliation and they want to take it all for themselves, they could not infiltrate Texas as the people there is becoming more fanatic each day. And their spies disappear, not realizing that they turned into servitors in the mines.

The news happened so suddenly to the people that lived a normal life...

The air raid sirens, the military martial lockdowns, drafts and the price skyrocketed to the point that millionaires became the new middle class and those below them are beggars in society.

Gated communities are what's left of the normal society while the world outside became a constant riots and ruined landscape.

Alexander took advantage of the chaos, and hired them in masses, food for work, benefits of joining his corporations and safety from the bombs. Many applied their portfolio resumes that it flooded a three story building with the desperation they want to get safety and food in their bellies. Although there are some corporate spies join in the wave of corporate refugees, they are weeded out.

Many corporations that is unsure about the Vault TEC vaults safety joined his banner.

About a third of Americans join his corporation... Making him the biggest corporation to contend with.

As promised by the Enclave, a Month Prior before the bombs fell, a warning was sounded. All his Employees and their families entered the fallout shelters. The resident that signed up the shelter flocked into the shelter en masse, leaving the clueless and ignorant in the wake of the fallout.

Chinese began to drop nuclear bombs like crazy and America retaliated with nuclear warfare and Russia activated the Dead hand protocols left by the former Soviet union. Europe also join the party as they too launch their nuclear arsenal as well.

Turning the world aflame.

<Welcome to Fallout, hope you survived this wasteland Alexander.>

"Do I get a perk or something?"

<Wild Wasteland perk>

"Oh hell no, we going to see aliens?"
