"Symbol what are you doing!?" I yelled as I watched my friend, piloting a suit of power armour, grab the synth courser by the neck and slam him into the ground. Before the courser could react Symbol crushed his head under the metal boot of his armour.

A nearby synth saw the attack and aimed it's rifle at him, only for it to be shot point blank with a combat shotgun.

"Why are you doing this?! What's wrong?!" I pleaded.

"How could you side with these murderers!?" He snapped back while ripping the head off of another synth.

"What are you talking about?!" I aimed my pistol and shot the gun out of his hand. "Tell me!" I began to run up to him to try and reason with him. But what happened next caught me completely off gaurd.

He punched me. He punched me right in the chest. The impact caused me to be thrown into the air, only for him to punch me agin, this time sending me crashing into the ground. I looked to my HP bar, and saw it was getting low. He stood over me, I could see the anger in his eyes even through the armours helmet. "If you've joined the institute...then you do not deserve to hear why I am doing this. So stay down, I don't want to kill you, you're my best friend...but this is something I have to do." Was all he said before he picked me up and knocked me unconscious, I was only able to hear one more thing before blacking out. "Do not look for me..."

Yep, that just happened, just a little teaser of what's to come. There is a lot planned for this story, I know I haven't updated it in awhile, and to be honest it will be another while before this gets a proper update. But I'm taking it off hiatus. It will continue. There is far too much to do with this as you can see. Now I'm sure you're curious as to why Symbol is acting like this, well, you'll have to wait to find out.
