'Damn it she's crying again' I think as I hear the girl in the next room. 'This is starting to piss me off. It's Christmas and her self-obsessed parents are having fun at a party downstairs surrounded by their friends while their daughter is up here, in her room, alone and crying.'

My name is Martin Bible, but everyone likes to call me Saint Martin. I have been protecting Weiss Shnee for the last five years, ever since the White Fang tried to kill her and her mother. It wasn't hard work but it got boring at times. The one perk of the job also make me angry. That I was the only friend of a ten year old girl.

I hear my Armor Control Gauntlet ring. It's the boss, Quantare Prime. (it is pronounced like quantum and tare without the um. Also the prime thing will be explained in another story. Maybe. For now just think of it as the highest rank.)

"Martin you there?"

"Yes sir. What do you need?"

"I have a quickie for you. Andrew Ryan just called and he wants us to investigate a shop for any evidence that may connect hi to either Fontane or Atlas. Should only take you about an hour."

"Got it sir. I will report what I find when I get back." One interesting thing about this job is that you can travel to other universes. In this case the Bioshock universe. I bring up the location and time coordinates on my ACG when I notice how quiet it is.

I look to the door to see a familiar head of white hair. Three years ago I was waiting for a car to pick Weiss and me up when I received a job like this one. Since I couldn't leave Weiss alone I had to take her with me. And ever since then she was constantly begging me to take her on missions. "Before you ask yes you may come. But where we are going is dangerous for a girl your age to be alone. So you are going to have to stay by my side at all times and do what I say when I say. Got it?"

She vigorously nods her head. "Good. Then go get dressed."

Ten minute later we were ready to go. I hit the teleport button on my ACG and in a flash we were in down town rapture. Weiss takes my hand and we begin to make our way to the shop Ryan wants investigated.

"Well that didn't take too long now did it?" I asked Weiss. She didn't care. She was still staring at the necklace I had bought her as a Christmas gift.

We were half way to the teleport location when I spotted a group of little sisters. Weiss hid behind me when they got close. I don't blame her. Those little things are creepy.

*clank clank clank*

I turn just in time for the recently thrown flash grenade to go off. Blinded and ears ringing I instantly grab Weiss and do an emergency teleport back to her room.

As my senses slowly return to me I notice that something stinks like sewage. As I look around I stop. Weiss is about 100 pounds, but she fells lighter for some reason. Fear instantly takes over my mind as I look down at Weiss. But she isn't in my arms. When the grenade went off I had accidently grabbed one of the little sisters.

On my first trip to Rapture I had been given a plasmid that allows me to turn little sisters back into normal little girls. As soon as I realized my mistake I knelt down and cured the little girl then looked her over for injuries. Nothing. She appeared to be about eight years old with black hair and pretty silver eyes.

"What's your name?" I ask her hoping that there isn't any hearing loss.

"Ruby Rose. Where am i?"

"We are in the bedroom of the little girl I had with me. In the confusion I had accidently grabbed you instead of her. Now stay quiet for a minute so I can call my superiors."

I hit redial on the ACG and when Primes face appears and sees mine he instantly knows that something is wrong. "What happened? And who's that with you?"

"Sir to keep a constant eye on her I had taken Weiss with me on the mission. We were passing a group of little sisters when someone threw a flash grenade. Probably in an attempted to kidnap one for its Adam. I thought I had grabbed Weiss when I did an emergency teleport but it turned out to be a little sister."

"Martin would you care to explain why you thought it would be a good idea to take Weiss to that hell hole of a city?! Or on any mission at all for that reason?!"

"I thought it would be a simple investigation then teleport sir. And on several occasions I had to take her with me to keep my eye on her. Anyways I need your permission to go back and get her."

"You have forty-eight hours. No more. Get going." And with that the link went dead.

I turn to Ruby "Ok Ruby I need you to stay here. There is a bathroom over there and that dresser should have a night gown you can wear in it." I say as I point to them "If anyone comes to the door looking for me tell them I had to go on a mission. Also I need you to respond to the name Weiss. If they ask about your voice say that you are getting a cold. If they come in stay under the covers. Can you do all that for me?" I ask her.

"Yes sir." She responds in a soft voice.

"Good. Now go take a bath and change. Hopefully I will be back soon." As she heads to the bathroom I hit the teleport button and return to Rapture. Dread fills me as I see that time has past here. By the looks of things a week or two.

I sigh and head to the office of the one person who would have information on a missing child. Don't worry Weiss Saint Martin is coming.
