Author note: this is my first fanfiction okay, so it will probably suck.
and also, YES I KNOW Leviathan takes place beginning of WWI and Bioshock Take's place AFTER WWII. So just, work with me okay. and this takes place after Goliath as well.
thank you.

It was the middle of the summer, the sun was high and hot in the noon sky. Deryn was standing in formation on the docks edge. She, and a group of other middies, along with a smaller group of higher ranking officers, were informed of their current mission earlier that day.
A few weeks ago, a crew had been sent to an abandoned underwater clanker city by the name of Rapture, to fetch something for the boffins. Only one officer from the previous squad had returned alive, well, mostly alive at least. He had come back babbling like a daft lunatic, going on about little girls and human monsters. The man had died from internal injuries only a few days after his return.
Deryn and her group were assigned to a search and rescue mission for any possible survivors. Deryn rarely felt worry, but at this moment, she felt a kind of fear welling up inside her. It wasn't just her own life she feared for though. Alek had volunteered to join them, and was approved. Deryn could feel that something terrible was going to happen on their mission.
The way down to Rapture was through a lighthouse off the coast of Greenland. There was an elevator inside, big enough to fit10 of them. There was to be three teams, 30 min, to go down to Rapture. Deryn and Alek were a part of the first group together. Volger, who had earlier forced the mission leader to let him join the group Alek was in, had made some of the men feel uneasy.
The elevator creakingly opened, revealing a cramped room. Deryn, Alek, Volger, and the rest of the team clambered into it. The doors slid shut and the room lurched sickeningly downward a few seconds before proceeding with its slow decent. Only a few moments later, dull blue-green light flowed into the elevator space, Deryn turned around to the open glass back of the room, letting out an amazed gasp, "barking spiders." Before them were the spires of the underwater city, slowly coming up in front of them, gradually towering above their awe struck faces. Suddenly the view was blocked by steel and their decent ended.
The doors slid open, and before them, in a lobby like room, a giant window revealing to them a magnificent view of the city. An iron black near the window read, "Welcome, to Rapture."
