Up until then, he was a killer, shooting people for a living, but now he was determined to change himself. It shifted MacCready's perspective on life and himself. The sight of Lucy torn apart by the clawed, rotted hands would plague him for years to come. However, her death bought enough time for him to make a fighting retreat out of the station, with Duncan in his arms. Lucy was ripped apart before MacCready could get a shot off. They didn’t know the place was infested with feral ghouls who set upon them in the darkness. Their happiness was bluntly interrupted by tragedy one fateful night, when they set up camp in an abandoned metro station. Lucy and MacCready were nomads and their son, Duncan, was born on the road. However, the Capital Wasteland was still a treacherous place and didn't take kindly to an absence of misery. She gave him a carved toy soldier in return, something he always kept on himself regardless of where he went. He told her that he was a soldier, out of fear that he might lose her if he revealed that he was a stone-cold killer. With her at his side, he could press ahead no matter the horrors that faced him. Lucy always had MacCready's back and helped him through the darkest of nights in the wasteland. In the course of his travels, he met a woman named Lucy. He took to wandering the wastelands as a gun for hire. In 2281, MacCready hit sixteen and left Little Lamplight. Engaging targets at long range means you don’t take too many chances and in the treacherous Capital Wasteland that meant staving off death for another day. Children are always at a disadvantage in the wasteland, so he chose a sniper rifle as his weapon of choice, teaching himself marksmanship from the ground up. However brazen and foolhardy he might have been in his young years, MacCready was not devoid of imagination. The other residents respected him for his smarts, toughness, and the juvenile lack of fear of anything – be it monsters, adults, or using his rifle on anything that looked at him funny, not to mention the ability to maintain Little Lamplight as a viable community. MacCready’s coup resulted in him becoming mayor.
Her rule lasted about five minutes, until MacCready punched her in the face and stated that Little Lamplight needed a leader, not a princess. His ascension was simple: After Princess declared herself the new Mayor and renamed the position after herself.
