Chapter 1 Alpha
The lava flowed through the core of Rapture known as Hephaestus. From time to time some Little Sisters would come here to enjoy the heat that was given off by the boiling lava. Eleanor Lamb was one of those Sisters, having been born in Rapture she never really knew what the sun was. When she went with Subject Delta, her Big Daddy, this was the only thing close to summer that the Little Sister had.
"This way daddy." She said with delight as she caught the scent of another ADAM body.
Delta trailed after her as she pulled his hand in hers towards the body, an uneasy feeling came over the Alpha Series as he neared the destination of the angel; right outside Andrew Ryan's office. They turned the last corner to see a figure of another Alpha Series outside the door of Ryan's lair.
It stood at attention, like a British Soldier clad in a Red Coat. Delta expected him to sprint toward Eleanor, but he did no such thing, he just stood there and let them do what they pleased. What seemed to puzzle Delta was that when Eleanor gathered from the body, no Splicers came.
The silence didn't last long. One Splicer, arms coated with electricity, sprinted into the room and shocked Delta. The protector gave a roar of pain and fell to the ground, stunned from the massive shock of Electro Bolt 3.
"DADDY!" Eleanor shrieked, and ran towards him but the Splicer fired another bolt right in front of her and she ran back, right behind the leg of the other Alpha Series.
The Splicer shot another bolt, but it missed them and hit Andrew Ryan's door. That set the Alpha Series off. He grabbed a long steel pole that was right next to him on the ground in a pile of others, and walked quickly over to him and swiftly grabbed his head and bashed it on the ground two extremely hard times and impaled the pole straight through his brain. The ADAM addict died instantly. The Alpha than proceeded to stick the pole through the wall on a spot marked X next to other bodies that met the same fate.
"Thanks…Uncle Alpha" Eleanor said catching glimpse of the Alpha letter on his hand as he helped Delta off the ground.
Alpha gave a grunt of satisfaction and was about to head back to his post, but Delta stopped him. A series of whale-like noises began to fill the room as they conversed. Delta came to learn that Subject Alpha was the first protector created. He failed to bond with a Little Sister and was about to be disposed of, but Andrew Ryan intervened and took him in as a bodyguard. To this day Alpha continues to guard Ryan with his life. Delta shook hands with Alpha and took Eleanor to her "hidey-hole" as she gave a yawn and fell asleep in Delta's arms.
"I like Uncle Alpha" she sighed nuzzling into Delta's arms.
