Once our beloved protagonist reached the outskirts of a certain 'abandoned' settlement, she landed gracefully on her feet; where she gently set down the Lone Wanderer; who immediately knelt on the ground, while at the same time shaking like a leaf from the 'traumatic' journey.

"So, David ... Is this Minefield?" asked Goki with her gaze on the half dozen houses that were spread out meters away from their position; which looked quite dilapidated and old like everything else she had seen in the short time she has been in this world.

The blond who was still kneeling on the ground; upon hearing her fellow adventurer's question, began to slowly rise from her position in a shaky manner; as she was still recovering from a certain 'traumatic' experience.

"Y-Yes... I-That seems..." replied David with an obvious stutter; the moment he was fully on his feet, while at the same time staring at his hands without explanation.

The black-haired woman with black hair in the shape of a palm tree; noticing the nervousness of the former inhabitant of Vault 101 turned around with a curious expression, and saw that he was looking at his hands ... Could he have a splinter or something that was bothering him? No doubt this caught his attention a bit, but in reality, what was more on his mind was the phobia of his fellow adventurer.

"David ... Are you afraid of heights or flying?" asked Goki with a small amused smile; while at the same time approaching the distracted Lone Wanderer, who was still looking at his hands.

The blue-eyed young man almost fell backwards; the moment he realized he had a certain woman in exotic orange with blue clothing, practically inches away from his face.

"B-Both!" exclaimed David very embarrassed; at the moment he backed up two steps away from the smiling woman with huge K-cup breasts, while at the same time diverting his gaze to his PipBoy due to the fact that he didn't want; the latter to see his small blush.

The woman with striking dark eyes like coal began to laugh at the 'angry' and slightly blushing look of the blond; who immediately buried her face in that strange device called 'PipBoy 3000' ... Though she suddenly stopped laughing as she remembered something that had happened at a certain perverted woman's store.

"... David?" said Goki with some hesitation to the former inhabitant of Vault 101; who had apparently put aside his embarrassment to start looking for something on the flashy black screen device with green lettering.

When the blue-eyed young man heard that his fellow adventurer said his name; he stopped looking at his PipBoy, in which he was looking for what firearm he could use in this mission due to the fact that according to Moira's words in Minefield there were 'ghosts' that killed curious adventurers; and this meant that it was very possible that there would be a confrontation.

"Yes?" answered David with a neutral tone; at the moment he focused his gaze on the nervous young woman in exotic orange and blue clothing, who had begun to rub her hands together, further demonstrating this state.

The black-haired woman with palm tree-shaped spiky hair was not sure whether to ask the Lone Wanderer the following question, but in the end, she stopped rubbing her hands together in a clear sign of nervousness; and then decided to ask the question that intrigued her so much.

"... Why didn't you tell Moira the truth about what happened in Super-Duper Mart?" asked Goki quite intrigued by the answer of the former inhabitant of Vault 101.

The blue-eyed young man thought about it for a moment whether to tell her the truth or lie to her because he wasn't quite sure what consequences he could throw in her face, but in the end, he decided to tell her the truth; although he didn't think his words through.

"Well ... Let's just say I'm not sure how Moira would have reacted to the things you can do, Goki," David answered truthfully; perhaps he had been too direct and didn't measure his words because they provoked a reaction in the woman in striking orange with blue clothing.

The coal-dark-eyed woman looked very sad at those hurtful words (unconsciously) from the Lone Wanderer.

"Oh... I understand... she would think I'm some kind of monster..." said Goki in a low voice; as he averted his gaze anywhere so as not to meet the gaze of the former inhabitant of Vault 101. "So... Does everyone see me as a monster?" she thought almost on the verge of tears as a series of memories on Earth invaded her mind.

The blond realizing his mistake; his calm expression changed to one of horror when he saw that the woman with huge breasts was about to cry, so he immediately tried to explain himself with the first thing that came to his mind.

"No, that's not what I meant-"

{BANG!}

The shot (which came from somewhere in Minefield) hit full in the chest of the Saiyan woman; who backed up a step totally surprised at the instant when the small metallic object hit hard against her large left chest, causing it to bounce in a rather striking way before the look of complete disbelief of the Lone Wanderer; who could not believe what his eyes had witnessed.

"Goki!" exclaimed David of his adventuring companion; while at the same time pushing the latter towards some medium sized rocks to dodge another bullet this time aimed at his head. "Are you okay?" he asked with obvious concern; once they were protected from the continuous accurate and deadly shots of the experienced sniper, who surely has them in his sights; just in case they thought of poking their heads out a little.

The black-haired woman with palm-tipped black hair had not even noticed that the former inhabitant of Vault 101 had pushed her for her safety onto some rocks, but upon hearing the latter's question she somehow snapped out of her stupor.

"... Yes", answered Goki with a frown; at the moment she removed her right hand from her large left breast, while at the same time she kept thinking about an identical event she lived in her world when some guys tried to kidnap her; for reasons unknown to her to this day.

The blond couldn't help but hide his astonishment at seeing no wounds or even a scratch on the large chest of the woman in striking orange with blue clothing; no doubt she was very special and so amazing, to the point of comparing her to a 'Goddess' or a similar entity ... Though he suddenly shook his head pushing those thoughts away (for the moment) regarding Goki, as they were now in dire straits with a certain enemy watching them through a telescopic sight.

"Damn sniper..." muttered David with clenched fists, to be followed by him turning on his PipBoy again; and quickly began to search the sector where his firearms were.

In a green glow a hunting rifle with telescopic sight added by hand materialized; to the dumbfounded expression of his partner in crime, as two instant thoughts invaded his mind:

*First was that somehow that Pip-Boy stored items like Bulma's Hoi-Poi capsules.

*And second was that that green glow again reminded him of the Legendary Super Saiyan.

"...What?" said David to himself; unable to believe what he was seeing through his telescopic sight. "It's a decrepit old man," he revealed with an incredulous tone; but quickly put that aside the moment he placed his index finger on the trigger of his modified hunting rifle.

{BANG!}

Goki flinched a little at the loud sound of the Lone Wanderer's gun because it reminded her of her childhood when a hunter mistook her for a wild animal... Remembering that only depressed her, so she quickly pushed those thoughts out of her mind to focus on what was happening right now.

Meanwhile, the bullet from the rifle of the former inhabitant of Vault 101 sped through Minefield's space until it hit the sniper's sights killing him on the spot as it went through the eye and brain; staining a wall behind the old man with blood and brain matter, a quick death.

"That old man won't murder anyone anymore..." muttered David with a sigh between relieved and annoyed; to be followed by him rising somewhat gingerly from his position.

The woman with striking dark eyes as dark as carbon; began to look around with a clearly confused expression, as she had missed what happened in the seconds she was disconnected from reality.

"David? ... What happened?" asked Goki with a confused tone; once he got up from the ground with a quick and agile jump, while at the same time using his left hand to scratch where that metallic thing had impacted him moments before.

The blond-haired young man turned around rather puzzled at the question of the young woman with huge G-cup breasts.

"...Don't you remember that-"

The Lone Wanderer paused slightly as he remembered where the bullet fired by the old man had hit, so he immediately decided not to remind him of that; and quickly changed the subject.

"Well ... Let's just say that someone tried to hurt us, but relax because the problem is already solved," David promised with a small smile; while at the same time resting the barrel of his hunting rifle on his right shoulder.

The Saiyan woman stood thoughtfully for a while at the blue-eyed young man's words, but then shrugged her shoulders in a sign of boredom.

"Okay..." accepted Goki without problems the answer of the former inhabitant of the Vault 101; and he watched her with disbelief at her disinterest in what had happened a moment ago. "So, what do we do now?" she asked this time with a touch of excitement at the prospect of fighting someone strong, although she wasn't sure if in this world there was any person with a similar power to her ... Except for Broly; who she had no idea where he might be now.

The blue-eyed young man shook his head at his adventure partner's carefree attitude, but that question she asked anyway; caused him to put aside what had happened to concentrate on an answer.

"About that..." David was thoughtful for a while due to the fact that now there was not so much danger anymore; and for this reason, they had to return to the main mission of coming to this small town. "I will be in charge of deactivating all the mines in Minefield; and you Goki are going to check the houses for food, drinks or materials." He explained what they would have to do next in this 'ghost' town, where he hoped they would not find any other surprises.

The woman with exotic black hair spiked in the shape of a palm tree; listened attentively to the Lone Wanderer's words, so when he finished, she nodded her head repeatedly.

"Understood, David!" said Goki with a bright smile, while at the same time giving him his typical peace sign with his right hand; to the amused look of the blond-haired young man.

After this, both the Saiyan woman and the former inhabitant of Vault 101 started walking towards Minefield to do their respective missions; which was up to each of them.
