"Blake time to get up.", Twilight said as she shook me.
"Hi my love.", I pulled her into a kiss.
She sniffed the air, "Mmm, smell that? I think it's breakfast.".
"Let's go."
We went down stairs and we were introduced to more pancakes, and of course twilight's favorite: bacon and skag sausage from Lilith's cooking, skag meat isn't all that bad really. We haven't met any skags but from what we heard they are extremely hostile like the bullymongs we faced except they were like wolves that can split their faces down the middle like a mouth.
After I finished my breakfast and Twilight finished her plate full of fucking meat (she just loves to eat meat now, sue me!),
"Well Lilith thanks for the breakfast...", I and Twilight got up, "and I think we should get going Roland, see ya!"
"Good luck on your mission.", Roland said waving to us.
We went outside in front of HQ and check our time.
"Looks like it we have two hours before our deadline so let's go shopping!"
"Oh yeah!", Twilight said as we made a hoof/fist bump.
With over $350,000 total in our inventories, we headed to Marcus and Zed.
~Tundra Express 800 hrs~
As soon as we were in the Tundra express we got out of our runner (with me driving.) and the whole place was snowy and well "woodlansy".
"Let's see what toys we got.", Twilight said going to the back.
"Oh, this will make your dick harden.", Twilight giggled as I opened the trunk.
The whole tunk extended into an extensive armory.
"Take your pick.".
"WOW!", Twilight said, "Let's see here ooh!..."
~100 ft from tip~

Action skill upgrade: a japanese hand fan that expands into a guided, giant, laser, shuriken that cuts virtually anything when thrown and teleports back to the user's digital inventory to be recharged once it has stopped moving or has lost all energy.
"It looks like he's going to meet us inside that farm house."
"VARKIDS!", Twilight said as insects the size of small infants began to crawl out of their nests.
I took my UTS while Twilight took out her CX4.
"FIRE.", we fired our guns and we killed some varkids but the numbers are what got to us as they tried to bite at my shield.
"Eat this you fucker.", Twilight said as a bug jumped at her.
SLASH
The bug was sliced in half then she turned to three more jumping at her.
SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH...
After countless slashes they all fell apart into tini tiny pieces. The green blood got all over us. Just when we thought we killed all of the little guys we saw an HUGE varkid that had to the the size of a small car and resembled a horned beetle. It charged at Twilight but then she took out her fan and said,
"Fetch!"
She threw it with her hoof and,
SLICE
, the huge blade went clean through the moving varkid symmetrically, and Twilight flipped over it. She caught the incoming fan with her hoof and closed it without looking at the Varkid as it spilt apart in two a half-a-second later.
Then and even BIGGER varkid shook the Earth below us and came burrowing out of it behind us. We turned to look at it when a voice came from nearby,
"GET IT BLOODWING!"
A huge condor-like bird sliced the super badass varkid to death with it's sharp talons. It reverted back to a smaller size and went back to a guy's arm we've never met before. He wore some baggy clothing with goggles, a goatee and a long edge sword on his back.
Twilight spoke,"So your this person we are supposed to meet?"
"Woah a talking unicorn?"
I spoke, "Long story, anyways this is my girlfriend Twilight and I am Blake, you know Roland don't you?"
"Hell yes I used to Vault Hunt with him and I am Mordecai and did you say she was your girlfriend?"
"Yeah you should ask Roland or Lilith back at HQ for the full story, but anyways Roland said we needed to contact him once we met with you."
"Go right ahead."
Twilight contacted Roland, "Roland we have met Mordecai, what's the sit rep over?"
"Good job now ask him about the Vault Key and tell him to get back to HQ, Roland out."
Twilight spoke to Mordecai, "Roland said you knew something about the location of the Vault key?"
"Why yes it is on a Train coming here in the Tundra.", he put a blip on our maps, "at 2300 hours sharp over this bridge, so you better plan something before it reaches here."
"Roland also said to get back to HQ so nice to meet you Mordecai.", each of us shook hands with him, "I hope we meet again soon."
"See ya, come on Bloodwing!", Bloodwing screeched as Mordecai went running the way we came.
I contacted Roland, "So about the Vault Key, he said it was on a train and it is going to be here at 2300 hours sharp, any ideas?"
"Yeah I got one, she may seem weird but she is the most gifted explosives expert on Pandora and you'll meet her here"
~Tiny Tina's 1000hrs~
A little 13-year old girl skipped up to a demolition fuse and sang,
"All around the stactus plant,
The stalker chased the bandit
"the Stalker thought it was all'n fun
And POP..."
BOOM
"Goes the bandit."
"Um hi are you Tina?"
She turned around and gasped at the sight of the purple unicorn.
She gasped, "Oh wow a talking unicorn wait here."
She came back with a doll and a black marker and gave it to Twilight.
Twilight chuckled and said, "If it makes you feel better.", she signed her initials on the body of the doll.
"Those fuckers going to be jealous EEEEE!", she regain composure and looked at us.
"Why yes I am Tina, Tiny Tina and what cha NEEED!"
'A thirteen year old demolition's expert, just when I thought I have seen it all.', I thought.
"Got anything for a moving train?"
"I need my badonadonks and they got stolen by the bandits GO GET EM'.", she said as she out the coordinates into our echos.
"NAP TIME!", she just fell backwards on the snow.
"Oookay.", Twilight said.
"Let's get hunting."
~bandit camp 1200 hrs~
Some bandits were on a metal platform while I am walked in to the center of the bandit camp with no weapons physically on me at a running train station (not the one the vault key will pass) . Everyone in the bandit camp pointed there guns at me with angry eyes.
"Now just who the fuck are you to walk in here!?", a brute said at a poker table.
I yelled back, "I am just a guy looking for something!"
"There's nothing for you get the fuck out!"
"I heard you have something for me and I would like to retrieve those before things get ugly here."
"HA you and what army?"
I held out my hand like a gun and pointed to it, "With this."
Everyone laughed but I just laughed along with them.
"He he but seriously let me get those things and I'll be on my way before I paint this train station with your blood!".
"Ha ha no!"
I slowly lifted my "hand" gun and pointed it at the speaker. "Alright ready."
"Last chance."
"Ha ha you gotta be fucking jo-"
BOOM
The C4 I told Twilight to place along the two sides of the camp while I have had them distracted, killed and/or stunned all the hostiles around me excluding the speaker.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS-"
BANG!
Before he had a chance to finish I materialized a 412 Rex in the "hand" gun and blew his brains out.
"GO SISTER.", I referred to the quad rotor with my M249 on it as it flew into the camp. I took out my G3 while, Twilight appeared from her cloak behind me with her Mx4.
Back-to-back we and my drone shot the stunned bandits left and right, once we killed them all in the yard, Twilight spoke, "The missiles are down here!"
She said as we went down a stairwell leading to the area with the blip.
"KILL THEM!".
A shock nomad yelled at us from the opposite end as we slid to cover. More bandits came out from behind him.
My drone fired while we fired with our assault rifles at the bandits. The acid soaked through their faces as the shock from my G3A3 took out their shields while Twilight splattered slag all over them with her Cx4. When my gun tediore assault rifle ran out of ammo, I threw it like a spear and it pieced the body of the Shock nomad. Even though he was immune to shock the bayonet sure did had an effect on him, and then.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
The explosion took out their shields and of course there was one thing missing,
'FIRE!', I thought as I took out my MGL-140.
BANG! BOOM!
"AAAAAAHHHHH!"
"YEAH BURN YOU MOTHER FUCKER, HA HA HA HA HA!", Twilight yelled psychotically as she fired a magazine-full down-range at the burning victims.
"WOOO!", Twilight celebrated as she killed the last of the bandits and loaded in a fresh magazine into her carbine.
"I got the missiles.", I said as I put them in my digital inventory.
"Let's leave, Twilight said as I put a fresh ammo pack into my M249.
"Alright.", we ran and jumped off the side of the train station where Twilight parked the runner (yeah I taught her to drive) and landed in it.
Twilight stepped on gas drove off but,
"YOU WON'T GET OUT ALIVE!"
We were being chased by 3 bandit cars.
As we were being chased, Twilight smirked, "Take care of these fuckers Tangent"
"On it pi.", I reloaded the M2 browning HMG and,
RATATATATATATA
The .50 cal bullets tore through their metal like it was nothing and it blew up one of the cars in flames.
"HERE CATCH!", I threw a corrosive sticky at one of the cars,
BOOM
The acid dissolved through the metal and as well as their bodies and boom went the vehicle.
I shot the last vehicle's tires with the M2 and it hit a rail and flipped over us. In what seems like slow motion, Twilight took out her Flame Desert Eagle and aimed for the gas tank below the vehicle.
BANG BOOM
Wow Twilight had very fast reaction, better than mine in opinion, "Nice shot!"
She winked at me, "Thanks.", she said as she put a fresh magazine into her pistol and holstered it away.
~Tina's 0500 hours~
"Where do you want to put these?", I said lifting the missiles with both hands over my shoulders.
"Put them in mah work shop."
"Okay.", I laid them down in the garage when Tina went to the door controls and said, "Go I have to be alone for this."
"Take your time.", Twilight said as she and I exited the workshop.
We heard some blow torching and singing.
"I am a teacup, bloody and cut!
Here is my handle and here is my butt! uh whoops!"
"You okay?", I said
"Yeah just a little explosion and DONE!"
The door opened to reveal some type of double barreled missile launcher.
"Here take this and lock on to whatever and BLOW IT TO SHIT!", she handed me the missile launcher.
"Now goodbye and NAP TIME!".
"Wow thanks Tina we owe you."
"Ah it was nothing just go out there and make mommy proud!"
"See ya.", she said nothing as she flopped onto her bed.
"A little angel she is.", Twilight whispered as we left the cave for the train car bridge.
~At the Bridge 2258 hours.~
I got up from some random lawn chair and stretched to check my watch once again.
"Look it is almost time.", Twilight said yawning.
I took the missile launcher and armed it to lock on to the bridge.
BANG BANG
Two missiles came out of the launcher and went up into the air, it landed on the bridge,
BOOM!
A minute later the train came and just like we planed and crashed into the lake below. The rest of the train came to a halt.
"Roland we now have the train disabled."
"Good now look for the most fortified one, the Vault key has got to be in there."
"Yes sir and over and out.", Twilight said and we ran towards the back of the trains to follow the blip and were ambushed by the machines that came out of the fires.
"Lets kick some shiny metal ass.", Twilight said getting her corrosive CZ Scorpion Evo SMG.
"Where are you getting these lines?", I said taking out my quad rotor with my corrosive M249 SAW on it.
"I came up with these on my trip.", 'Smart girl.', I thought as I threw my quadrotor into the air and cocked my Slag UTS-15.
"LET IT RIP!"
BANG I fired my first shot and the pellets blew a loader's eye out. With all the other robots covered in slag my girlfriend and my quadrotor went to work on them and melted them completely into the ground. We came across a junkyard full of snow valleys and trains. The objective was just right over the junk.
Not the mention that the whole area was full of loaders and surveyors wanting to kill us.
A bunch of suicider loaders were running towards Twilight and surrounded her, they exploded around her but the real Twilight appeared a few yards a way_running towards a loader and said,
"Idiots."
She then returned to firing with her corrosive SMG and shot two loaders a foot apart from each other. She ran towards a loader shooting her but the clocked Twilight slid under the fire and used her electric Desert Eagle to shoot the eye of the Loader. She slid in even further under the legs and sliced another robot from behind symmetrically. Two robots from opposite sides of her had their guns pulled into each other by Twilight and made them shoot themselves. She then dual wielded her Cx4 Carbine and corrosive SMG with her back to mine's with my G3A3 and my drone above me. With about twenty left to go we fired into the night at whatever moved as our shields absorbed the bullets.
For the last enemy which was a flying surveyor, I took out mr Rex and shot it in the eye as it flew towards us..
Still back-to-back panting and our guns smoking in the fresh night, I chuckled "That *huff* so *huff* much fucking *huff* fun!"
"So *huff* lets go find this Vault key and get the fuck out of here.", with that we walked over around a wreckage and jumped down next to a fast travel and in the center of the wide-open area infront of us was a very noticeable fortified car_ sunken below the ice.
Angel spoke, "Now the Vault key wouldn't be on a train he would have Wilhelm guarding it.".
"Thanks.", Twilight said as the car began to rise up.
"Oh no!"
CRASH
The whole fortified car was thrown towards us and we rolled to the sides to dodge it. Out of the water cam a very tall yellow loader, which was probably Wilhelm.
"WILHELM!"
"Oh shit this is Wilhelm?", I messaged to Roland.
"WILHELM?! I am sorry soldier but you can't handle Wilhelm."
Lilith messaged in "Yeah he took out a whole town full of soldiers in New Haven without taking a scratch."
"This seem impossible but you CAN defeat Wilhelm you just have to know his weaknesses."
"FIRE", I yelled.
Twilight fired her carbine while I fired my corrosive M249.
Wilhelm spoke as he ran into our bullets, "DIE!".
We again dodged in opposite directions and Wilhelm faced me.
He was about to charge his laser on his shoulder when,
BOOM
a kunai bomb stuck to his back and exploded and lost his concentration. I threw a corrosive sticky on his chest,
BOOM
The acid melted through him but unfortunately he had some three surveyors to repair the damage.
"Target acquired.", It said as it punched me and sent me flying backwards and towards a wall. When I was on the ground it was about to chainsaw me when.
BANG! BOOM!
Twilight had her explosive sniper rifle at a distance and shot Wilhelm and struck him in the right hip but to only stun him. I ran towards and jumped over hurdles to get to Twilights position as the tall one began to rise again.
It charged it's laser again, "GET DOWN", Twilight said as she tackled me to the ground behind cover.
"This fucker's tough.", I said.
Wilhelm again charged at us and made a vertical miss at the ground next to Twilight.
Twilight charged her sword cut though the shield and made a scratch on Wilhelm's armor and he stumbled back a bit from the strike. Smirking, I shot a barrage of corrosive M249 rounds in to his chest_softening his armor. Then I took out my UTS-15 and covered Wilhelm in slag_immobilizing him. I took out my G3A3 to get rid of the surveyors littering the sky.
"Beating me is scientifically IMPOSSIBLE!", Wilhelm said as he was about to charge his laser at me, but then.
A whistle came from behind, he turned around to see Twilight holding a hand fan in her hoof and said, "No but this is and NO FUCKING BODY HURTS MY BOYFRIEND HA!", Twilight jumped over Wilhelm and threw a massive shuriken at splitting him down the middle.
Without looking at Wilhelm we walked away towards the fortified car and a second later Wilhelm exploded.
"WE DEFEATED WIHELM!"
"WOOOOO!", Twilight said as we made a high fore-appendage
I contacted Roland, "WE DEFEATED WILHELM!"
"YOU guys defeated Wilhelm? Wow Jack doesn't stand a chance."
But then I noticed something was a miss and sighed.
Twilight spoke, "Yeah but unluckily we there is no Vault Key, but we did find what looks like a power core."
Mordecai spoke, "WHAT?! I was positive that the Key was on that train!"
"Well we did find a powercore so that was something and we fucking killed WILHELM!"
"Yeah but sorry for the unpleasant delay to your worlds"
"That's okay.", Twilight said, "Survival is our first priority here.".
"Well okay get back to Sanctuary and we'll take a look at that power core you got."
