Leaving a bloody trail behind in his X01 power armor, Six was heading west of the Warwick homestead and the south of the castle near Quincy. Towards the Atom Cats garage, the headquarters of the coolest cats in the Commonwealth.

The Atom cats walk around in their customized suits of T-60 power armor. Their complex is split between an abandoned red rocket fueling station and a repair garage. Inside the repair garage, Six finds a cool cat named Roxy who gives him the lowdown on all the members of the Atom cats.

"I'll tell you what's what with the Atom cats. Zeke's the boss started this whole outfit. I just dare you to fight a cat cooler than Zeke. His the leader and founder of this notable gang. He's a proponent of everything hip and cool and completely against anything square."

Searching around in the Atom Cat complex finally finds Zeke eating in the cafeteria.

"Hey, check out the chassis on you. Your plates have got me cranked. The name's Zeke. I'd like a cat who digs what I dig. And the Atom Cats dig the power armor."

"Names Six D. VI, I'm hip."

"That's more like it, Jack. We wear our power armor with style. Not like some other dead heads around. Remember Jack, as an Atom Cat, you are a beacon of cool in a world of not cool. I wish I had been around before the world blew up, Jack. Back then cats really knew about cool. So, what's your tale nightingale? You want a ticket to fat city?"

"How would you guys like to have a job were you work on customizing power armor for living?"

"Man, you talk like a real square. And here I was thinking you were Atom Cat material. The Atom Cat's do what they want. Yoa dig? We don't need no stinking job. You'll never be an Atom Cat with that attitude."

"Oh, go back to nowheresville where you belong."

Zeke is stopped from saying anything more when Rowdy puts her hand on his shoulder, making him stop in his tracks.

"Zeke, let me take over, I am the merchant and the engineer of the crew."

"Alright Rowdy. But we can't be seen with some nerd from nowheresville. We got a reputation to uphold!"

"Don't worry Zeke, I'll handle it."

"So, Jack what's the offer."

"I have over thousands power armor frames, from T-45, T-51, T-60, X-01 power armor and multiple variants of each one."

"What I need from you guys, is to customize and create new power armors, that you can test and use. So, are you guys open to my offer?"

The Atom cats complex Got so quiet you can hear the sound of the pin dropping. Well, everyone was still in shock, Rowdy Came back to her senses and hurriedly answered back.

"You're not kidding Jack, you'll let us work on your plates and create new ones, that's what you're offering. Then you have a deal on your hands, Buster."

"But before we take your deal. You have to prove yourself to us. I've been putting off hauling myself over the pond to Warwick for this, but now you get to do it. Nothing I can't do myself. Got this clunker I want to see you spiff up."

"This here's something I've been fixing up, part of the pump system at Warwick. Thing was clogged up like Zeke after one too many cans of cram. I want you to go to the pump shed there and install it. The Warwick folks might be squares, but they are nice enough. We help them with our skills, they give us food. Works out real nice. Oh, and make sure to let June Warwick know when you are done."

"Just so you know, I will be checking your work. The Cats won't take credit for shoddy craftsmanship."

"Rowdy how about I take your territory and theirs, and add them to mine?"

"Pft. Well, as long as you can prove yourself to be an Atom Cat. Then will be cool with it."

Arriving at Warwick homestead Six searched for the little shack just outside the fence, right up against the side of the water treatment plant, he found the water pump, which he repaired The party was given. Once done, six headed over to find June Warwick, to tell her the good news. finding her in the farming area.

"I saw you working in the pump shed over there. Are you with the Adam Cats?"

"Correct. Daddy-Oh!"

"You guys are adorable. So, is that pump all fixed up now?"

"Why do you need that pump working?"

"This place used to be a sewage treatment plan. You probably figured that from the smell. Well, we can get that pump up and running. We can flush out the system and hopefully get some of this stink out of the tubes."

"Maybe someday this will do the farm some good. The Adam cats have been such a great help to us. You must be hungry. Here had take some food back with you and please. send Zeke my thanks."

"If you guys are interested, you can join my territory. You'll be protected from any form of attack and farms to your hearts content."

"Sounds, too good to be true. What's in it for you?"

"Just your absolute loyalty and I can provide you with food and shelter."

"Haha. That's all? I thought you'd be asking me for my first born or half of our food. That's all you want, Mister. You have yourself a deal."

June Warwick, then extends her hand to shake on the deal. Complying on the deal Six shakes on it.

[Host can now claim Warwick Homestead and Atom Cats Garage as settlement] [y/n]

Six rose both his hands into the air again like a showman, picking [y] he makes the whole of Warwick Homestead and Atom Cats Garage start its ascend into a floating island.

"Welcome to the Mysthaven Empire"

Leaving the people of Warwick, with those last words, he transports out. Arriving back to Rowdy Six tell her that everything is done, and we learned that the kindly Warwick family helped the Atom Cats out when they first found it.

"Yeah, and did you know about the terrible smell over there? Sheesh."

"Why do you think I've been putting off going back over there? Seriously. Who built a farm in a sewage treatment plant?"

"That place was a real dump, huh? Thanks for taking care of our business there." said Zeke.

"June said you guys help out of Warwick a lot?" said Six

"When we found this place. They helped us get on our feet. Gave us food. Didn't even ask for nothing back. And we've been cooking up a plan to get that pump working again so we can flush out that grody sludge. And as a way to say thanks. Don't go spilling the beans at the Atom Cats have a heart or somethin'."

"So, he had the skills to spiff up the Warwick pump. Should we rustle his Jimmy's with something else?"

Suddenly one of the Atom Cats members comes running towards Zeke, to inform him with of an impending attack.

"Zeke, you won't believe it? We got gunners coming in hot, trying to attack us."

"Gunners. Not again. Atom Cats, let's stomp."

"No Zeke, you don't get it. They're trying to attack us, While we're at a high altitude they can't reach us.

"Huh. But I bet our shots can reach them am I wrong." said Six Taking out his anti-material rifle.

"Atom Cats, let's shoot fish in a barrel."
