Righteous Authority

“That being said, I believe we have two important matters to discuss. First and foremost, if you'll hand me the Deep Range Transmitter, I'd like to compensate you for your assistance during this operation,” he held out his hand.

“Here you go,” and she placed the plastic box with the transmitter safely encapsulated inside to his sizeable palm.

“Thank you,” he clasped at it carefully with the stout fingers and in turn, he handed her his gun, “I think you'll find this weapon useful. It's my own personal modification of the standard Brotherhood Laser Rifle. May it serve you well in battle.” Did he just handed his personal weapon over to her?

...she asked blankly, examining the weapon she just received. It was an AER9 laser rifle, military issue, without a scope. She already found some laser guns, but she didn't really give them a chance. That may change.

“This isn't the only weapon at my disposal. Brotherhood soldiers always carry a backup,” he explained to her and she nodded gratefully.

“Well, thanks,” she grinned and tested the weapon on a nearby tree, “works nice.” It was precise. She tried again, but now she used her Pip-Boy too, and turned on the Vault-Tec Assisted Targetic System, or V.A.T.S. for short and aimed at the tree again. There was something magical in the connection between the Pip-Boy and the weapon, which provided her a better use together. "Very nice!" As she looked at the bottom she noticed a little handwritten sticker on it, ‘Righteous Authority’. It seemed a good idea to mark your weapons to differentiate between them, but she never came this far to write their name on them, even though she named her most favourite weapons too.
