Secret Persona 3 Quest in Fallout 3

I was originally going to write a made-up script for a dungeon quest in Persona 3: FES for the Bitmob challenge. Halfway through, I realized that this wouldn't work for the character I was thinking of. Then I thought that maybe I could mix her backstory with something from Fallout 3. Here's a script I created for this particular quest:

[Main character finishes Galaxy News Radio quest and returns to Three-Dog for a reward. After Three-Dog thanks the main character, he talks about another fishy event happening at a certain high school...]

Three-Dog: There was one other thing that I was thinking of asking you. I don't wanna burden you with a lot of favors, but it seemed interesting for a (guy/gal) like you.

Main character: Go ahead. I'm all ears.

Three-Dog: Excellent! Well, I've been hearing ghost stories about something going on in Springvale High School. Word has it that a young girl from Megaton was laying there unconscious. I heard that her father was worried to death. Everyone was glad that he found the girl before she ever got captured by punks in the Wastes. But then she started muttering strange nonsense about how she had to tell some chick that she was sorry.

Who knows? You might be able to find something interesting if you check it out.

Main character: (Four options)

1.      Why should I risk my life over a little girl and some ghost story?

Three-Dog: Oh, you don't have to. I'm just saying that this father would pay a mercenary anything just to make sure his daughter's okay.

2.      Who is this girl who is scared of some ghost?

Three-Dog: Well, I didn't catch the name of the girl herself. But I do know the name of the father. I think he goes by the name of Billy Creel, or something.

3.      Sounds great. Count me in.

Three-Dog: Excellent. Go talk to Billy Creel for more info. He should be wandering around in Megaton City with his daughter. I'm sure you've already him, but I'll mark his location on the map in case you forget.

4.      This is too dangerous for me. No way.

Three-Dog: Okay, if you say so. But it's a great opportunity for you to earn some dough.

[We'll assume that the main character took the job. He/she heads to Megaton City to talk to Billy Creel.]

It's definitely an unconventional mix. I haven't played Persona 3, so I don't know what Fuuka's personality is like, but I would think that she'd be a bit more bothered to have just become a ghoul. She appeared to be totally fine with it (and apparently has made some ghoul friends really quickly.)

Also, maybe I just got a little confused when reading this, but was the big white flash of light you describe part of the events before the beginning of Fallout 3? I'm just curious how this works, timeline-wise? How old was Maggie when the accident happened and how old is she when the main charater accepts the quest?

I'm sure these are all questions you have answers to, but they're not immediately apparent in your script.

Sorry about that. I wanted to finish it before the deadline, so I wasn't quite able to smooth everything out.

Fuuka would be a little disturbed, wouldn't she? I was planning on having it set in the period where she was being bullied by some other girls. Then she gets locked into the high school before it turned into the dungeon of Tartarus. And I was also trying to imply that her friends were also persona users. Persona...ghouls. Whatever.

The big white flash is supposed to be an atomic bomb hitting the school not too long after she was locked in by the bullies. And I guess Maggie is in high school at the time.

I needed a little more time to finish everything up. But maybe the two weren't meant to mix together in the first place. I mean, I personally don't think of the Persona 3 shadow monsters as a bunch of mean, over-radiated ghouls and super mutants.

...Yeah, I'll think of something better next time. It's too hard to connect the two together, because I'd need a lot more context. Lol.
