Epilogue

"Every story has an end. But in life, every end is a new beginning." - Dakota Fanning

Was it all worth it?

Standing besides the bedside of Sarah Lyons in the medical wing of the Citadel Jessi's question still echoed in the Lone Wanderer's thoughts. The New York Institute of Technology was nothing more than a radioactive crater that spelled the end of the Enclave's stronghold in the ruins of New York City and surrounding areas. It's vile program, Project Predominant, was a smoldering pile of nuclear ash and the residents of Milltown no longer had to live in fear of the tribal people that they called 'Reavers'. But was the price of the victory too high?

Three-fourths of the Lyons Pride were missing and presumed dead, her dearest friend Lucy was murdered, her Brotherhood companion Paladin Hoss was killed during the trek through the ruins of the once great city, her closes of friends Sarah was gravely wounded and had nearly died, Jessi had discovered her horrific origins and was brutally raped at Paradise Falls along with Moria, and she had suffered the same fate at the hands of a cannibalistic Ghoul during her journey through New York.

The events that had transpired the last six months would have lasting consequences, not only for her, but also for the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel and the ruins of New York City for years to come. With Autumn now dead she wondered how long before the Enclave decided to rear its presence again in the Capital Wasteland. Hopefully not anytime soon, she thought to herself as she turned and left the medical room. Closing the door behind her, she glanced up to see Athena coming down the hallway towards her. During the flight back it was Jessi who explained everything to Anya about the green hair woman. When it was all said and done, she didn't find herself feeling sorry for the woman, in fact all she felt was regret. Here was Jessi's mother, the person that was able to provide the teenager's unknown past to her and also give the young girl a sense of belonging to a family. She felt a stab of pain in her heart upon the thought knowing that the same organization that made them what they're were also the ones responsible for the death of her father.

"How she doing?" asked Athena as she drew close enough to talk to Anya without having to shout.

"Same as before, resting comfortably with no signs of infection," she replied.

The green hair woman smiled towards Anya. "Thanks for watching her. You're truly are a good friend of hers."

Anya didn't bother to reply, all she did was flash a grin and started down the hallway. She paused for a second to look back and watch Athena disappear into the medical room, closing the door behind her, before letting out a sigh. She was more to Sarah than just a friend, she had came to realize that, but she knew she couldn't be more to the Brotherhood Sentinel than just that; a friend, a companion, nothing more nothing less. Letting out another long sigh, she turned and made her way back up into the A Ring of the Brotherhood complex and paused for a split second before knocking gently on the wooden door flanked by two guards. She waited until she heard the elderly voice giving her permission to enter before opening the door and stepping into the room beyond.

Elder Lyons wasn't seated by his desk, instead he was up staring at overhead pictures of the New York Institute of Technology on the overhead projector. When she first came back she was prepared to be booted out of the Citadel immediately after they debarked from the Vertibirds, but Lyons surprised her by offering them full disposal of the Citadel's medical facilities to recover from their injuries before spending every waking hour next to his daughter's side as she underwent various surgeries to repair the damaged inflicted to her upper chest cavity by Colonel Autumn's high powered rifle round. It wasn't until she was out of harm's way and expected to make a full recovery before he requested a meeting with her and only her in his private office.

Now here she was, standing silent and waiting for the Brotherhood Leader to acknowledge her presence. "Tell me," he said at last, "do you think you've failed in your mission?"

So here it comes, she thought, blame me for everything, no surprise there. "To be honest it wasn't my decision to destroy the Institute. I was completely incapacitated at the time when it was made."

The Brotherhood Elder nodded his head as he broke his gaze from the pictures. "Quite so and I agree that the Enclave's Project Predominant was vile enough to have warrant such recourse."

That response surprised Anya. "So you aren't upset?"

"Of course I'm not upset, the after action reports I've been reviewing have twisted my stomach to the point that nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to the vileness nature of the Enclave. However I'm not so sure if the Senior Elders out west would agree with me although." He sat behind his desk and clasped his hands together. "If it wasn't for your companions actions we might've not been able to rescue the remainder of the Pride from the Enclave's stronghold. But the lost of the other technology housed at the Institute goes beyond words and I'm afraid that is all Lost Hills will reflect upon."

Anya folded her arms. "So what would you've had us do then?"

Lyons sighed. "Unfortunately there wasn't much you could've done besides being wiped out had you attempted to wrestle control of the complex away from the Enclave. We've lost too many experienced Knights and Paladins during the first ill attempt to take it."

"It wasn't Sarah's fault. She didn't know the Enclave was there," replied Anya deciding to leave Athena's part out. She'd used her influence with the rest of the Pride to leave that fact out of the after action report.

"She still should've known better," Lyons said. "But that is for me to discuss with my daughter once she has recovered from her injuries."

Anya nodded her head but decided to leave it at that, no point in getting involved in someone else's family affairs. "So where does that leave us?"

"Yes, a very peculiar situation we've found ourselves in, haven't we?" He fell silence, taking a moment to collect his thoughts before speaking. "Anastasia, you are a extremely gifted and talented young woman, but I fear that our views have differ greatly over the past few years. But I can't denounce your dedication that you've displayed to the Pride and to my daughter. I fear maybe that I was wrong to chastise you when you refused my offer to become a Paladin and for that maybe I lost my ways. I've made many, many mistakes, the Outcast being my greatest and I don't wish to repeat that same mistake as I did then."

He stood at the moment and walked over to a situational board that displayed the whole of the Capital Wastelands. Anya watched as he clasped his hands behind his back and stared at it, not uttering a word for what seemed like eternity.

"When I broke with the my primary mission objective to protect the inhabitants of this land I thought it was for best, but as you know others didn't see it that way." He shook his head and let out a sigh. "They've carried on the mission while we've been engaged in our seemingly endless struggles against the Super Mutants and then the Enclave. Now with communications being reestablished with Lost Hills I found myself falling back into my old ways. You were right, I should've helped you."

"You mean with Paradise Falls?"

Lyons nodded. "I was starting to believe that with the threats of the Super Mutants and the Enclave extinguished from the DC area that the Pride should return to the primary mission we were sent here to accomplish. But the events in New York City has shown me otherwise. Even although we can't see threats on the horizon, they are out there, waiting and bidding their time."

Anya moved next to Lyons side and looked at the map, surprised by how immense the whole land of the Capital Wasteland was. "I'm sure the Pride can handle anything that arises," she said.

"That I'm not quite sure of anymore," the Elder answered. "We only got ahead in our struggles against the Enclave without you primarily with the support of Liberty Prime. With its destruction and rebuilding still years away I fear without you the next threat that rises from the ashes of the old might succeed in destroying us."

"Lyons, I've told you that I don't want to be-"

But Lyons held up his hand to silence Anya's comment. "Hear me out, Anya. You've become something more than a savior, you've become a symbol. A symbol of hope to the people of this depressive lands. And your actions to the north will only spread your legacy to new ears, both friendly and hostile. People might even be drawn to the DC area to feel safe knowing that a person like you are here, you don't have to protect them that'll be the Brotherhood's mission, just be here for them. Who knows, maybe the threat might be cowed to never come to these lands knowing that you here, watching and waiting for it."

"What about the Senior Elders at Lost Hills? Aren't you afraid they might side with the Outcast and cut you off completely?"

"I'll worry about that when the time comes, but for now I'm issuing an edict that'll be played on Galaxy News Radio declaring that all these lands are now under the full protection of the Brotherhood of Steel and any group that harms the inhabitants of the settlements will be dealt with harshly and with overwhelming force." He then looked at Anya and placed a hand on her shoulder. "And I know you don't want it, but I'm bestowing you the rank of Paladin. You won't have to command any troops, but it might be reassuring to the masses knowing that the Savior of the Capital Wastelands is still standing side by side with us."

Anya was silent for a moment before she reached up and removed Lyons' hand from her shoulder. "I said I don't want that title anymore. If you want to use me as a figurehead to rally the people or spawn fears in enemies than who am I to deny the people that feeling of safety. But after everything that has transpired in the few months because of how others viewed me, I just want to be left alone."

Clearly that wasn't what Lyons wanted to hear, but instead of erupting he just shook his head. "I'm sorry to hear that, but if that is how you feel then so be it. But remember, Anastasia, you can pretend all you want but you can't escape who you truly are. You are no longer a lone wanderer, but the Savior of the Capital Wastelands and of its peoples."

"So where is this place we're headed to again?"

Shaking her head, Anya turned around to lay gaze upon her quizzed pink hair companion. "To a new place that lays just over on the side of the DC ruins that butts up against the bank of the Potomac," she replied.

Jessi snorted as she tugged on the lash of the nearly overloaded Brahmin that she guided. "Can't understand why you wanted to leave Megaton in the first place?"

"Bad memories," Anya replied.

"What?"

"What the mistress is trying to inform your almost child-like questions she that she decided that a change of venue was better than attempting to remain in a settlement that offered her only despairing looks of the past," replied Wadsworth as he maneuvered between the third and fourth Brahmin. The he lowered his vacillator, "But to why it is decided on a place closer to trouble is beyond me. Then again, why did we have to pack the damn sink is also behind my comprehension."

Anya heard the robotic butler's sarcastic comments but decided to leave it at that and not to reply. After refusing Lyons' offer she had returned to Megaton with Jessi and Kelsey, but Athena had decided to remain at the Citadel and be by Sarah's side when she started her rehabilitation and recovery. It wasn't along, however, that she realized that after everything in the past few months Megaton had lost that home like feeling of safety. She wasn't quite sure if it was because that it reminded her of her fallen friend Lucy, or the strain relationship between Moria and her, but within a week she'd pretty much decided it was time for her to leave Megaton.

For two weeks with the help of Charon and her good friend Fawkes, the almost docile Super Mutant that she'd befriend during her first venture into Vault 87 so long ago, she had searched the Capital Wastelands for a suitable new living establishment. When none could be found, and she flat out refusing to reside in another established settlement, they decided to check out some of the old hotels and apartment complexes that lined the Potomac on the DC side. It was there that they discovered a structural sound, former apartment building that had minimal of damage to both the exterior and interior. Once they got the main power generators working again, they explored the building from top to bottom and upon seeing everything the building had to offer, Anya decided it was perfect.

Now after nearly a month of hard work the upper three floors were ready. She smiled knowing that her two companions would be pleased. The main living floor, which was two floors on itself at the very top, sported enough of rooms for six people in their own quarters with running water and showers, plumbing, a spacious great hall with adjacent reading and living rooms, and also a balcony that overlooked the Potomac and the Citadel. Beneath that floor was another set of rooms that Charon and Fawkes had agreed to move into. In the basement they set-up a full size armory complete with shooting range. Future work on the building included getting at least another living floor cleaned out and set up as well as attempting to get the building's indoor pole area cleaned up as well.

"Believe me when I say you're going to enjoy Riverside Apartments," she finally announced.

"As long as it's not outside I don't care where it's at," comment Kelsey as she glanced up into the clouding sky. "Looks like rain is coming."

Crossing over the Potomac, they followed the river's edge south until they came to Riverside Apartments, which unfortunately was close to the hotel inhabitant by the ever vile, friendly, drunken womanizing Russian named Dukov who was now standing outside his hotel's main entrance, bottle in one hand and a scantily clad woman in the other.

"Ha ha ha, there are my new neighbors and oh boy do you all look gorgeous. Come on over to Dukov's and we'll have a party, maybe I'll even give yea a Dukov surprise, huh?" he shouted.

"Maybe later," replied Jessi who just rolled her eyes. "Noisy neighbors."

Kelsey just grinned as she said, "I'm not sure, maybe he can show you a thing or two?"

"Oh don't start on me now with that, Kelsey," the teenage girl replied.

All three of them laughed as they rounded the corner and laid eyes upon the Riverside Apartments complex. The good humor smile slowly disappeared from Anya's facial features when she saw a large flag of the Brotherhood of Steel fluttering in the breeze on top of the building's flag pole.

"My friend, you have returned," shouted Fawkes as he came outside the building and embraced the smaller human woman.

Anya gritted her teeth as pain shot through her body from being squeezed against the Super Mutants yellowish-green skin. "Ugh, it's good to see you to, Fawkes, but please let go of me before you pop a rib."

Releasing Anya, Fawkes stared down at the petite woman below him. "Forgive me, my friend, if I get a bit over excited. And these are your new friends you've been telling me about?"

"Yes they are. Jessi, Kelsey, this is Fawkes, don't worry he's as gently as Dogmeat, but just don't get him mad."

"A pleasure always meeting my friend's new friends who are now my friends as well," Fawkes replied with a big booming laugh. "Is this everything, my friend?"

"Sure is. Now, Fawkes, where did that thing come from?"

The Super Mutant followed Anya's pointed finger to the flag fluttering overhead and said, "That was placed by a member of the Brotherhood of Steel to indicate that this building is now under their protection."

"Lyons," muttered Anya as she shook her head.

"The person who emplaced it is waiting for you upstairs in your quarters," added Fawkes.

"Thanks, Fawkes. Give me a few minutes and I'll be back down to give you a hand moving everything in."

Making her way into the building, Anya had hoped the short elevator ride to the top floor would be enough to cool her seething anger but by the time the doors had opened she was ready to spit fire from her mouth at the poor soldier who had emplaced that flag. Storming up the stairs she turned right and almost kicked open the door to her quarters.

"What the fuck is that goddamn flag doing on my-"

Her words trailed off as her eyes befell on the blonde hair woman seated in the chair by the desk. Sarah Lyons smiled softly as she rose and shook her head. "Still haven't lost the edge I see."

A thousand words came to Anya's mind suddenly upon seeing the blonde hair Sentinel but the only ones that could manage to escape her lips were, "What are you doing here?"

That got a laugh from Sarah. "Always straight to the point with you. Never, you look great Sarah, or how's it going? You haven't even been back to visit me once to check up on me."

"I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy," she replied and then quickly added, "So how've you been?"

"Okay, not back up to combat fitness yet but getting there. Like the new place, by the way."

"Thank you. So where's Athena?"

"Back at the Citadel. Guess you haven't heard that she's pregnant?"

Hearing the comment caused Anya's eyes to shoot open. "What? How? When? Who?"

Sarah laughed for a second before becoming serious. "Back during the breakout. Apparently one her plans back fired and she needed up with a crotch full of cum. She's about eight weeks now."

"Damn," said Anya. "She going to have it?"

"Yep. Nobody could talk her out of it. Said after everything she wants to be a real mother."

"Guess I can't blame her for that." When a uncomfortable silence befell on the room, Anya asked, "So what brings you here?"

The blonde hair woman let out a long sigh before answering. "I'm here because of you."

"Me?"

"Oh don't start acting naive now, Athena told me she told you everything I said."

"Oh," Anya replied back with.

When nothing else came out, Sarah just snorted. "Maybe I'm just a damn fool for coming here thinking it was something else."

But what surprised Anya wasn't what she said, but what she did next. Stepping in front of the door, she held up her hand and pressed them against Sarah's chest to stop her. "Okay, she did, but, I don't know. I do care for you and all but, I'm not sure of anything at the moment, Sarah. After everything that happened in New York I...I just don't know."

Reaching up to take Anya's hands into her own, Sarah was surprised to feel that the younger woman's hands were trembling. "We don't have to figure everything out at the moment, Anya. I'm still happy to be your friend...for now."

Anya slide her hands from Sarah's and wrapped them around to hug Sarah's neck and before Sarah knew it, Anya was kissing her, sucking softly on her friend's warm lips. "I love you, Sarah. I always have and always will," whispered Anya, running her finger through Sarah's blonde hair.

Enfolding Anya's waist, Sarah returned the teenager's hungry kiss, the two women's mouths locked and sloppily slurped as Anya slipped her warm right hand inside the blonde hair Sentinel's uniform, dipping inside the recesses of her trousers to her panties to caress her lover's puffy pussy. Sarah led the auburn hair Lone Wanderer to one of the large, pre-war sitting chairs, dropping herself onto the soft seat, while Anya climbed onto her lap. Hurriedly, Sarah peeled off Anya's combat harness and ripped open her shirt to cup and squeeze the former Vault Dweller's soft teenage tits. Sarah bit her lower lip, then she pulled off Anya's shirt, bringing her tongue to the teenager's engorged cherry nipples, lapping the delicious young breast while Anya moaned softly and nuzzled Sarah's thick blonde hair.

Prying the Sentinel's head way from her engorged nipples, Anya leaned down to capture Sarah's parted lips, sucking on them and then licked the trickles of drool gleaming on the older woman's chin. Stroking Sarah's neck with her cool, caressing tongue, Anya pulled the fastener's free of her uniform top and then lathered Sarah's bare breasts with saliva, leaving glistening streaks over both of the older woman's heaving breast. She then she dragged her tongue between Sarah's blushing cleavage to the Sentinel's stomach, where she licked round and round her shivering belly button. Dropping out of Sarah's lap, Anya folded to her knees between Sarah's pale legs. Pulling the trousers free, she grabbed the blonde hair woman's knees as she parted her lover's lower limbs and then nuzzled her musky warm crotch, lapping at the whimpering Sentinel's swollen, sweet sex.

Sarah laid her head back, moaning softly, combing her fingers through Anya's crimson locks, as the teenage girl plunged her tongue deep into her squishy slit, swirling round and round inside Sarah's throbbing vulva. Sarah's pelvis quaked, and she squirted her hot juices all over Anya's crotch-nuzzling face. The Lone Wanderer giggled and licked the brotherhood Sentinel's honey nectar from her nose and flushed cheeks before she buried her mouth inside the older woman's melting pussy again. Sarah withered and moaned as Anya plunged her extended tongue in and out of her sopping wet hole, until Sarah wrapped her shivering legs around her cunt-tonguing lover, exploding inside Anya's ravenous mouth, feeding hot cunt nectar down the teenager's greedily gulping throat.

Panting, her bare breasts gleaming with saliva and sweat in the artificial light, Sarah watched Anya climb back into her lap. Clutching at her friend's bare shoulders, Anya started grinding her swollen snatch against the blonde hair woman's sticky-hot pussy, both of them moaning as they writhed and crashed together, Sarah pounding Anya's dripping wet twat with equal ferocity as the teenage girl tossed her wet auburn mane and humped between Sarah's open pale legs. Anya embraced Sarah's panting lips, and Sarah kneaded Anya's bucking ass as the teen redhead rode her, thrusting hard between Sarah's splayed, flushed pink thighs, till both woman, drenching their lean, sweat-slick bodies in musky-sweet cum.

While Anya nuzzled Sarah's sweaty blonde mane, the Brotherhood Sentinel slipped her right hand between the teenage girl's honey-soaked thighs. She fondled the Lone Wanderer's swollen sex, it was sopping wet, dripping with rivulets of sticky-warm honey dew making it easier for her to wriggle two fingers into the younger girl's hot hole, and was rewarded with a soft whimper as Anya pressed her perspiring bosom to Sarah's blushing breasts, the women's rock-hard nipples rolling round and round each other as Sarah fingered her teenage lover to yet another uncontrollable, gushing orgasm.

"So this is the few minutes you had in mind, huh?" a voice asked from behind.

Exhausted and panting, both Sarah and Anya glanced to the entrance to the room to see both Jessi and Kelsey standing there. The blonde hair Kelsey smirked at the scene before her while Jessi eyes widen at the embraced woman with awe.

"We...um just had...you know," Anya stammered.

Jessi flashed a grin as she nudged Kelsey. "What do say, shall we join?"

Kelsey licked her upper lip as she winked at the Jessi who was already pulling off her shirt to reveal her small and still forming buds to the others. "Been a while since I last did this but why not."

Within minutes the four woman were withering and moaning profusely on the floor either licking, sucking, squeezing, or fingering their womanly places of their bodies. As the pink hair Jessi straddled Anya's prone body, lowering her head to the hairless cunt of the Lone Wanderer while offering her dripping slit to her, Anya took a brief second to glance over to Sarah to see her lover's head buried deeply between Kelsey's trembling thighs and couldn't help but smile at the thought of the coming of the wonderful night of passion that waited for them as she leaned up and inserted her caressing tongue into the sloppy wet pink mass before her.

She didn't know what the future had in store of her but at the moment she could care less.

THE END
