Rapture had become the opposite of its namesake, a city stuck at the bottom of the ocean with only monsters infesting its dripping tunnels. A splicer runs through one dark tunnel, the worst fear of any splicer chasing him a big sister. He ducks around the corner and looks back thinking he lost her just to turn around and come face to face to her. He barely has enough time before the sword like syringe goes through his head

Amelia's POV

Disgusting splicer, coming into my territory! How dare he! I start to walk away when I hear a communication from Dr. Lamb from my in helmet radio something about a Delta that needs to be stopped, I wished I had a voice just to tell her off. Oh well not my problem. I head back to my current base, a small abandoned apartment. I never stay in one place to long, not that I'm scared of splicers but if enough came not even I could stop them all!

I toss my helmet on my bed and stare at myself at the cracked mirror. Looking back at me is a tall gangly girl with messy red hair and freckles, I could almost look normal if it wasn't for those stupid glowing eyes! Raaagh! Stupid monster, dumb beast, no no I can't go down that road. I rummage through my stuff and find my saving grace of sanity in a small brown rectangular box. I put it on a moldy stand and press the button on it. A light clicks and a little see through man pops out of the top. He is about 15, tall, short ginger hair on his head as he wears a brown vest and trousers. My dear cousin. I sit on my bed as the program starts and listen to his old voice.

"Hello children Andi your personal tutor here, today I'll be teaching you the alphabet, and the best part it's in song ahem A…B…C…D"

I lie down and close my eyes as tears start coming. Then I start to dream about my earliest memories.

Ten years ago.

I run through the pretty halls looking for angles. Mister bubbles trying to keep up but can't. Oh! There is a pretty angle, time to get to work. Hmm I wonder were angles come from. "Amelia!" huh? Oh a party guest he's funny looking with a lot of brown, but he has red hair like me. Oh well back to work.

"Come on Amelia please tell me they didn't turn you." The brown man is coming closer, better not get to close or Mr. B will unzip you, I giggle "groan" oh their he is.

"Wo wo wo I'm not dumb enough to go against a big daddy." The brown man slowly backs up. He looks around and scratches his head. Then he goes through his pockets and pulls out a small bag and slides it across the floor to me "here Amelia that's got to taste better then adam" I open the bag and it's full of little yellow balls I take one and pop it in my mouth. Wow it's sweet and sour at the same time "hee hee you always did like my hard candy." The brown man is staring at me funny, sad but also kind of happy. "You may be a little sister but I'll still keep an eye on you" he looks up to Mr. B "at least your well-guarded" he turns and starts walking away muttering something "curse you uncle I hope your choking on adam"

I smile and take the bag he left "what a funny man, come on Mr. B let's find more angles" for the next few weeks I keep seeing the brown man he gets as close as he can and slips gifts to me. He always smiles at me but when he thinks I'm not looking his face always turns bitter as he looks around.

Then one day I wake up and go out of my hidey hole Mr. B is waiting for me "come on maybe we'll see the brown man today" I run but then stop as a see black shoes. Those don't belong to the brown man. I look up there is a bunch of party goers but something is wrong. They are not shiny, were are the roses, the gold, these men are scary I scream "mister bubbles!"

Mr. B comes and starts tearing at them with his drill I try to stay out of the way but then I hear something. I turn ten of those whirly bird things come down and start shooting at daddy "I told you I could hack those bots" one of the men said. Mr. B manages to bring them down, but he's really hurt. "now while it's weak get him" the men attack Mr. B gets most of them but then the last two do something weird they have fire in their hands! No Daddy's burning! Mr. B! The two men look at me "all to ourselves" one says but then the other one catches him on fire. I start to run.

I don't get far before the bad man gets me. He looks at me hungrily he lifts a metal bar above his head I close my eyes waiting for the worst. BANG! Nothing I slowly open my eyes the bad man is standing there with a weird look on his face. He drops his bar and falls over. The Brown man! He is behind the bad man with a gun in his hand. He drops it and runs to me "Amelia!" he hugs me, it feels nice and warm, Mr. B was never this warm. "Are you ok? What happened? Where is the Big Daddy?"

I start to cry "Daddy's gone the bad men got him"

The brown man starts to pat my head "shush shush shush, it's ok I'm here" we just sit hugging for a while. I don't want it to end. But then the brown man gets up. "I can't leave you here. I don't care if you're a little sister come on Amelia we are going Home.

He takes my hand and we start walking I turn to him "who's Amelia?

"Huh?" the brown man stops and stares at me "oh right I heard sisters don't remember anything" he kneels down to my level "Amelia is your name. And that's what I'll call you" I like it it's pretty "I'm Andi, I'm your cousin" he smiles at me I don't know what a cousin is but he is so nice.
