The Messiah: I

Eleanor looked up into the stormy sky reflecting on the events that had just transpired. She and her father had escaped the city of rapture and she had killed her psychopathic mother.

'But am I really that different?' She thought to herself. Her father had taken many lives to get to her, to save her. Her father showed no mercy not even to her sisters. He took what he needed from them and disposed of them. He survived no matter the cost and she could not help but think of what her mother had said to her father as she slit open the bellies of her sis…no her mothers children.

"This is what you are teaching her Delta? Survival of the most perfect monster?! In restoring your will Eleanor was asking you how to behave and how do you use it? To pray upon the innocent! That girl is no longer my daughter, she is a monster shaped by your will alone. You have fathered a KILLER I hope you are very proud."

'Heh… poor mother I was never your daughter. You took the one person that I had ever loved and murdered him in front of my eyes. You say that I'm a killer but your no different then me and to that respect my father as well.'

Eleanor stood on the bathysphere and looked out to the ocean. Although she could see nothing but the ocean she knew, somewhere beyond the sea waiting for her was the world. She looked down to her lithe armor clad form. Like the Big Daddies before them the Big Sister's suit was sealed onto their skin granting them great flexibility and speed in battle. As she sat there in thought she came to a sudden realization, an epiphany. Words from her mother yet again ran through her head.

"Delta, Rapture is the house of Monsters the surface will not have us…"

Eleanor stood there head bowed, her dark blood red hair obscuring the view of her brilliant blue eyes.

"Mother is correct. Me, my father, even herself. Rapture is the house of monsters the surface is not ready for us." She stood there talking to herself. She did not know why she was speaking to herself. Maybe she was going mad like Dr. Alexander had, either way it did not matter to her.

"The Rapture Dream is over and in waking I'm reborn!" She looked down to her fathers body. The one person that she truly loved with all her heart. He was perhaps the strongest Alpha series…no the strongest Big Daddy ever created!

"You will always be with me father…whispering over my shoulder. Your instincts, your drive." She walked casually into the cockpit of the bathysphere walking to the body of her dead mother. She searched her mothers pockets and found what she was looking for…The Genetic Key To Rapture.

"There is no name for what I am but the world is about to change."

'And with my father's survival instinct and the genius of all the minds of Rapture…'

"They will never…see me coming…"
