Don't be concerned, I wasn't the only one living in the Vault. There are some pretty powerful people in there, and…wait. Did you take any of the Med-X from the infirmary?

And your overseers supply cabinate.

…you do realize that when I died, I ordered all of my medicine that's left out in the open to be switched with Jet and other hallucinogen, right? I'm guessing not. You might want to re-visit the infirmary again, while the doctor is in. Oh, and that supply cabinet…I replaced all my papers with my experimental Protectron, I thought It was a good hiding place. And since the remote for it was broken, no telling what will happen…Might want to get some pulse grenades on hand. Like, right now.

Narration.

Same was examining the vault entrance that now stood open for everyone to access. He just knew it was going to be bad news, judging by all the gizmos and thingamabobs that were stashed in it. Touch one wrong button and who knows what you'd end up with. An evil clone army with limited vocabulary? Killer white noise? A virtual world, run by a sociopath? This thing would be better off sealed.
"I knew you'd be here. The criminals always return to the scene."
The vigilante emerged from the shadows, with murderous intent.
"Wait what? You assume I'm guilty for showing up at a place where a murder has been committed? This is townston! A murder has been committed everywhere. Right now, you're standing where an old lady got mauled by werewolves, back when we had those kind of problems."
"Protest all you like, I know you're guilty."
"But how? You haven't given me any proofs!"
"I don't need any proofs! I am the god damn batman!"
Realizing that he wasn't gonna talk himself out of this, same panicked and ran into the vault with the dark knight close behind. As he ran down couple of corridors that spiraled downwards into the ground, same came to realize that he was completely lost. He could hear the footsteps of his would be murderer coming closer so he opted to run through the first door he could find.
"Oh? Hello." said a man who was browsing through the shelves in there.
"Gah! Crap. Who- who are you." asked Same, trying to keep his heart from jumping out of his chest.
"Oh, I'm running a small clinic downtown and figured I could raid the medicine supplies in here, now that the previous owner wasn't using it. I say, the people who lived here had no idea how to organize. Who keeps a telephone and a toy car with the medicine. And look at this! Railwayspikes? Were they planing on laying down tracks down here?"
Not bothering to appear interested in what he had to say, same was quick to interrupt: "Yes, yes. That's all very fascinating but there's a very dangerous man following me. Could you help me hide?"
"Hmh? Oh, sure. No problem." said the paramedic and stuffed him in a footlocker.
same could here some muttering that sounded like the paramedic giving somebody directions around the place. A short while later the paramedic opened up the locker again.
"You're safe to leave now. The directions I gave him will have him circle the generator room for hours."
"Thanks man. You're a lifesaver." said same and went to look for the exit.

A lonely townie was wandering the streets. Not paying proper attention to his surroundings. A perfect target many would say. It appears that he's gained the attention of one of the mobsters as well. The villager stopped to look at a signpost when the hitman snuck from behind.
"Stabby stabby" he said as he attempted to cut open his back. With lightning reflexes, the man was quick to dodge the move but could not maintain balance and fell on the ground.
The mobster crawled over him and held his knife in his hand "Ah, what a bummer that you noticed me. I like stabbing people in the back. It's so fun catching them off guard. Oh well. So what would you like to be put on your headstone?"
"Your spine" said the furious man as he stabbed the mobster in the stomach.
The shock knocked the mobster off the man as he tried to realize what had just happened. The villager stood up and opened his coat, revealing various blade designs.
"Wait. You're the psychopath?" said the mobster startled.
"I'm sorry but the person you're talking to can't come out now. I'm Fred." replied the maniac before launching ahead.
"Oh shi-" yelped the mobster as he jumped further back, trying to avoid his opponent's blade.
Swinging his own knife to keep the psychopath at bay, the mobster gave himself the precious time needed to recover and gain coherence. He may have been wounded but he was not out of the fight.
The two men jumped at each other, giving all they got to the fight. A stream of blood sprayed on the wall to the right. Another went to the left. The two men stood with bloodied knifes in their hands. One of them collapsed.
