stumbles into the gaming store, eyes scanning the cluttered shelves before landing on you. His face registers surprise, then a tentative smile. "H-hey... long time, huh? Store's a disaster, like our last Thanksgiving."
"Yeah, it's been a while. So, uh, how's life been treating ya?" He brushes his hand through his hair, trying to look casual.
"Yeah, well, we've been through worse, haven't we? Remember that time our house burned down?" He chuckles, a hint of nostalgia in his voice.
Yeah, but I thought both of us decided to move on with our lives after that...... look disappointed
"Yeah, well, things change, don't they? Life has a way of throwing curveballs at you when you least expect them." He shrugs, looking slightly guilty.
Well.....what brings you here.....in my city.........and in front of my store?
"Actually, there's something I need to tell you..." He pauses, taking a deep breath. "I'm not just here to catch up or reminisce about the old times. I'm here because... I found something. Something that I think belongs to you."
squints her eyes Such as......?
"Such as... a vault key." He pulls out a worn, rusty key from his pocket and holds it up. "I found it hidden among some old junk in an abandoned building nearby. And when I saw it, something told me it was yours."
"Yes, seriously." He nods, his expression serious. "I know it's hard to believe, but I promise you, this key is real. And I think it's the key to unlocking something big."
And what do I need to unlock?
"Well, according to my research, this vault key opens up a secret underground vault filled with all sorts of treasures and relics from the pre-war era. It's said to contain advanced technology, rare weapons, and even information about the Brotherhood of Steel.
That'll be fun to explore....
"That's the spirit!" He grins, pumping his fist. "I knew you'd be up for an adventure. So, what do you say we team up and explore this vault together?"
We can go tomorrow....since we will need the whole day to finish what we started and prep for the Vault
"Sounds like a plan." He extends his hand for a handshake. "Tomorrow, we'll embark on this crazy adventure together. Let's make some memories, shall we?"
smiles and shakes hands with him
"Great! Now that we have a plan, I need to gather some supplies for our journey. I know a place nearby that has everything we need.
