Summer Mills Dean Rice I'm not your fucking daughter. I'm a brawler, I'm a fighter, I'm a blood-stained saint. I took my faltering steps out of a sterile prison into a irradiated nightmare. I'm alone. And I like it that way.

[unfortunatewaterson]

It had started out as a spontaneous idea. The old Megaton house was quiet, Sam was asleep, and Dean was restless. The smaller once-Vault Dweller liked to take it easy, but Dean was never the sort. Not when there was the Wastes to explore, calling him like a siren's song.

Not where there was good to be done.

Careful to tread lightly on the old metal floors, Dean crept away from the small building, and out into the open Capital.

He had made his way to one of the large street bridges over the Potomac. Always with a taste for danger, it had been a secret thrill of his to find the top edge and jump into the water below, blood surging with radiation-retardant chemicals. Swimming was something that just wasn't done in the old Vault, and he was always a fan of things that weren't done in Vault 101. Like hunting. Like exploration.

Like helping people who needed it.

Once he had been swimming a while, ending up close to Rivet City, Dean waded to dry ground, his eyes on the twisted metal fences of what was no doubt a Mutant camp. More interesting, however, was the person tied up on a ledge, near a bonfire.

She needed help, and Dean was no stranger to cracking skulls. Baseball bat in hand, he crept to the camp, taking care to drop mines as he went. With any luck, he and the captive would snake down the fence, causing the brutes to leave the easiest way, right into the explosives. It usually worked.

He climbed up to the captive, a woman, and covered her mouth to keep her from alerting the Super Mutants nearby. The ropes were cut, and the two quietly made their way down again. The Mutants were alerted, and as Dean had hoped, ran directly into the small plot of explosive dirt near the entrance to their camp.

Dean and the woman kept running, and he tried to direct her to Rivet City. But she was scared, hungry, and not in her right mind, and so she made a sharp turn, directly for the domed memorial site nearby. It wasn't long before a bullet caught her in the throat, ending her life.

Dean shouted, angry that her life had slipped through his fingers. Enraged with himself that he had failed - once again - to do what was right. Baseball bat ready, he charged, and he didn't stop until the creatures were dead. His weapon shattered, and his body peppered with bullets wounds and blunt force trauma, Dean collapsed in the dust.

He had failed.

Failed...

He snatches the bottle. "Yeah? What about it?"

"I couldn't get it, but I found the filing cabinet it unlocks. There's nothing in it. Where'd you get that bogus info, man?" He crosses his arms over his chest.

30.) And finally: Write a letter to your character, from yourself.

Dear Summer, We've both come a long way, haven't we? I know its hard to let people in, and let yourself trust them, but you have to try. You can't keep them at arm's length forever. You did the right thing, you always did the right thing. Your father would be proud of you. I know I am. Love, Chiyo.

27.) Pick two songs that describe your character at two different points of their life, and explain why you chose them.

'Hurt' by Christina Aguilera, after her father dies at Project Purity. It fits, because of the swirling emotions she feels at the time, and she wants to wake up and have her father still be alive, even though she knows he won't be, and all she really can hope for is that he was proud of her.

'No One' by Alicia Keys, after meeting and befriending Fawkes. Despite the song's romantic feel, the bond between Summer and Fawkes is platonic, but she leans on him like a support beam, and has a very close relationship with the Super Mutant.
