Fortress was probably the most secure place in the wasteland. It wasn't a city per se, it was a gigantic mobile Fortress with dozens of smaller fortresses cuddled together and attached to the main one. The amount of exhaust and other noxious clouds was awful. In fact, Everyone of the folks hanging by the city's outskirt had a gas mask, All of them had a red tint with a drawing of a fat snake on its sides.

"Hey man," three of lurking folks approached you and Mile. They had a large box brimmed with these masks "Wanna some masks? High quality right here....just for 500 caps."

>[let Mile speak]
>Deal
>Nope, thanks
>Fuck off.
>[Haggle] [Roll CHR]
>We want rad suits actually.
>What's up with this place? how can anyone live in here?
>Now that is one hell of a beast, can you tell me more about it?
>Other

>>[let Mile speak]

"Well now...." Mile punched the man straight in the nose "That's is what you get for being a greedy fuck. We are not fucking tourists. I know the damn prices well."

None drew any weapons "Alright tough guy, 200 caps or bust."

"100."

"Come on man, we gotta ea-"

"75."

"Fine fine, shit man." Mile bought two masks for 150 caps. You and him left the scammers behind.

>[Say nothing]
>Good job.
>We could have gone lower.
>Mile, please control your self. This whole Macho Bullshit will lead you to our fucking graves one time

You said nothing and moved onwards.

The only gate for Fortress was a large double door one, it was probably that large for the smaller Fortresses.

There was some stir up near the gate; a couple of those small fortresses were mobilizing. You and mile were stopped by heavily augmented guards, they had more metal than flesh inside of them. Your eyes caught the glimpse of a laser point hovering over your chest, same went for Mile. The Fortress' many turrets primed its barrel towards you.

The approaching guard didn't say anything; he simply yanked your backpack and started to inspect it thoroughly.

>What is going on?
>Was this really necessary ?
>[Stop him]
>[Do nothing]
>other

Mile didn't open his mouth this time. Strange.

"You are good to go." The large metal gate slowly started to open.

>You could have asked. I have nothing to hide as you saw.
>[Step inside]
>[Ask the guard something]
>Other

Fortress was perhaps more filthier than Cobstown. Industrial wastes made some piles and blobs on the 'sideways' of the city's two main streets. None gave a shit to this hazardous pollution. You literally just saw someone dumping more wastes from his fortress on the main street.

"Give me a five and I will come back with the suits. Stay here."

>I am coming with you
>I want to explore Fortress.
>Don't be late, Mile
>[Lie] Alright.
>Can i look around in the meantime?
>other

Yeah. This is not going to work. We spent two hours doing nothing. None is interested. I get it. Well, Thanks for whoever who posted it here.
