Prologue The Beginning
"Put the pistol to your head... and fire."
The sound of a gunshot was heard.
"DADDY!"
That moment... still replays in my head, even when I lay here... dying.
I am Johnny Topside... otherwise known...
As Subject Delta.
Rapture took everything away from me... my life... any family or friends that I had on the surface... my voice...
My personality they took... for a time.
They took my body and played with it like a toy... they shaped me...
They recreated me as a weapon.
I walked through Rapture... leaving a trail of blood and ADAM...
I did those things... to survive... if only I had known...
That the closest person that I had as family... would have been the one to pay the price...
I now know the cold sting of that bitch they call karma.
On the outside... nobody hears my voice... these are just my thoughts... thanks to them... all they hear is a Big Daddy's voice.
This is my story... Eleanor... I'm so sorry. All those... years ago...
A week ago...
Subject Delta's eyes began to open, he was lying face down in a puddle of water.
He got up, and he looked down at the puddle of water.
All he saw was the reflection of himself, he was in a Big Daddy suit.
He touched his helmet, his head was hurting, and he couldn't remember anything, or what had transpired.
He touched the large metal drill that he saw that was attached to his arm.
The drill was cold, as if it hadn't been used in a long time, it was also out of fuel.
He looked back behind him, there was a blue machine, and there were letters above it.
A vita-machine.
Subject Delta looked back down into the puddle staring at his own reflection. For a second or two, he thought he saw a little girl beside him.
But it wasn't a little girl at all, she had dark brown hair, and her eyes were yellow, and ADAM dripped from her mouth.
Eleanor...
Delta thought, now remembering what had happened years ago. Just then the vision of young Eleanor dissapeared in the puddle.
The vision of young Eleanor in the reflection of the puddle was his instincts that he got when he was turned into a Big Daddy. His body was telling him to find his little sister.
"Hello...? Can... body... he-... me...?" A radio crackled nearby.
There was a radio beside the puddle of water, and it had something wrote on the side of the radio.
Delta walked over to it and picked it up and inspected it.
On the side of the radio there was a message written in crayon.
"Please daddy hurry and find me!" It had Eleanor's name written after it.
The only sound that was coming from the radio was static. Delta put the radio in his helmet, so he could hear it at all times and he had no where to put it.
He noticed that there was something about his drill too. Someone had modified it where Delta could remove and place it on Delta's arm.
It would have been useful, but he had nowhere to place his massive drill.
He tried to further remember what had happened.
Then all of his memories came flashing back to him...
Ten years before...
"Look daddy! An angel!" The little girl said, who was riding on Delta's shoulders.
Delta let his little sister down so she could gather ADAM from the dead splicer on the floor.
The dead splicer had a suit and a eagle mask on. The splicer literally dripped with ADAM.
The little sister walked over to the dead splicer.
"More tasty ADAM for Eleanor!" The little sister laughed. She stuck her ADAM needle into the splicer and began to extract ADAM from him.
The moment that Eleanor stuck stuck her needle into the splicer, another live splicer came running up the stairs.
"GIVE ME THE ADAM!" The thuggish splicer cried. She was in a filthy dress and had a cat mask on. She was wielding a dirty and bloody lead pipe.
Delta shook his head when he felt the slight vibration of a lead pipe hitting his metal Big Daddy suit.
The female thuggish splicer went to run away when the lead pipe didn't phase Delta. Delta grabbed her left leg when she was halfway down the stairs and pulled it out from under her.
This caused the female splicer's face to collide with the metal stairs, however the mask took most of the damage.
Eleanor was still draining the dead splicer of his ADAM, and was singing a song about angels while gathering the ADAM.
Delta dragged her back to the room from the stairs, with her trying to grab ahold of something and screaming.
Delta let out a roar, and picked up the female splicer, and threw her against the wall.
Delta was suprised that there was only one splicer here to try to take Eleanor away. Delta walked towards her and smacked her with his drill.
The smack didn't kill her but it made her mask break into pieces and fly off.
The female splicer had bruises covering her face, it was probably from some male splicer or the smack of his drill, nevertheless...
Delta picked up the lead pipe that she had dropped with his free and empty left hand and he broke it into two pieces, just with his left hand.
He jammed one piece of the lead pipe into the splicer's left eye, and then the second into the splicer's right eye.
Delta had killed her with no thought at all, this was the price of becoming a Big Daddy...
No free will... no thinking about it either... to kill by instinct... to protect their daughters, the little sisters.
"All done daddy!" Eleanor said, happily, holding a full vial of swishy red liquid, which was ADAM.
She began to drink from the vial.
"Mmm... oh! She has ADAM too daddy!" Eleanor said, pointing at the dead female splicer that Delta had just killed.
Eleanor ran towards Delta and the corpse of the female splicer and began to drain her of her ADAM.
Delta stood in behind Eleanor protecting her from any splicers who would come and try to take her.
"You can't see me... but I CAN SEE YOU!"
Just then something was on Delta and made him fall forward.
Delta grabbed ahold of the houdini splicer that had teleported above him, that was now on Delta's back.
He slammed him to the ground with his left hand and held him down with his foot.
Before the houdini splicer could teleport again, Delta stuck his drill into him and powered it up.
The houdini splicer had almost teleported to safety, but thanks to Delta's quick reactions with his drill, he had not escaped this one.
Delta got up and he wiped the pieces of flesh off of his drill.
Eleanor had finished draining her of her ADAM already.
The door nearby had opened. Delta looked down at the dead female thuggish splicer, there was something in her dress pocket.
Delta picked up the recording from her dress pocket and he put it in his suit for now.
Eleanor was sniffing the air that came through the newly opened door.
"More angels daddy!" Eleanor said, she ran through the door and ahead of Delta.
Delta let out a moan as if he was trying to tell her to hold on.
Delta went through the door, and greatly surprised the man beside the door, who was also in a suit.
Delta went down the hallway looking for Eleanor, he saw a drunk stumbling ahead of him.
"DADDY!" Eleanor screamed.
Delta began to run towards the door where he thought he had heard the scream.
The door led outside the hallway to a balcony.
He looked over the balcony's railing and saw five thuggish splicers messing with Eleanor.
The first thuggish splicer was trying to yank the ADAM needle off of her. He ended up suceeding and obtaining the ADAM needle.
Delta jumped over the railing and landed on the second splicer's back, and he brought him to the ground by Delta's weight.
The second splicer's head was nothing but a squished ball of flesh under Delta's right foot.
"Hey big guy..." The first splicer said. He injected himself with the ADAM needle.
His hand began to pulse with electricity, and he shot out a blast of electricity at Delta.
Delta was stunned for a minute or so.
The electro-ball's effects wore off, and Delta let out a roar, as he was now pissed off.
The third splicer tried to smack Delta with a lead pipe, but Delta had dodged it and he smacked her with the drill. He slammed it into the third splicer's stomach, it began to spin, and the splicer began to scream.
The third splicer died, and the forth splicer was waiting for Delta to make the first move, which was a bad idea.
Delta punched the forth splicer, using all of his force. The forth splicer's neck broke when Delta's fist collided with his face.
Delta grabbed the fifth splicer and slammed him onto the ground again and again until he took his last breath.
"GOD DAMN IT! DO I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING!" The first and only alive splicer yelled.
Delta ran towards the first splicer and lunged at him with his drill, but the first splicer sidestepped Delta.
The remaining splicer shot electricity at Delta, but he dodged it after regaining his balance after charging towards the splicer.
"Damn... out of EVE! SHIT!" The splicer yelled, he began to run. Delta threw one of the bodies at the running splicer and it hit him head-on.
The running splicer collapsed under the corpse.
Delta walked towards him who was still trying to crawl away.
Delta picked the splicer up and drilled through his stomach. He threw the splicer's corpse and walked towards Eleanor.
But then he was hit by something, and his helmet was covered in a transparent green slime and for some reason he couldn't move.
Just then a splicer dropped from the ceiling. He landed on the floor and regained his balance.
"Ah... I was wondering if that plasmid would work." The spider splicer said. "I guess it does. Shake your head." The spider splicer said.
Just then Delta's head began to shake involuntarily.
"Heh... perhaps this was worth the ADAM that I'm about to get back..." The spider splicer said.
They both heard the sound of someone walking towards them with heels on.
"Oh shit! Queen bitch is here! Name's Steve Rodney kid. I'm going to be taking your little sister now... have a nice day." Steve Rodney said, he walked over to Eleanor.
Steve tried to grab Eleanor.
"NO!" Eleanor yelled.
"You're coming with me whether you like it or NOT!" Steve yelled. He hit Eleanor and knocked her out, he picked her up and climbed the wall.
Delta was still held in place due to the spider splicer's plasmid.
Just then a blond woman walked towards Delta.
"Hmm... you're harmless now... where is she... I know you have her..." The lady said.
Delta was confused, as if she wasn't a splicer, then... what was she and what did she want with Eleanor?
"I know that you two are bonded together. Where is..." She stopped as she heard the sound of a spider splicer, which was Steve trying to be nonchalant with his escape.
She pulled out a magnum and shot three times at the spider splicer on the wall.
"OW! BITCH!" Steve yelled. "You're lucky you only shot me in the foot Lamb!" Steve yelled, as he scaled the wall back to the balcony to escape.
"Damn it... now as for you..." Lamb said. "Kneel please." Lamb said.
Delta couldn't control himself, he kneeled involuntarily.
"Remove your helmet." Lamb said.
Steve had gotten to the balcony with Eleanor slung over his shoulder. He set her down and stopped to watch the invetiable.
Eleanor woke up and looked down below the balcony.
Delta involuntarily removed his helmet and threw it down to the ground.
"Take the pistol." Lamb said. She made Delta take the pistol from her.
"Put the pistol to your head..." Lamb said.
Delta's arm rose with the pistol in his hand and he put it up against his head.
"Fire." Lamb commanded.
The pistol went off, and Delta fell to the ground lifeless.
"DADDY!" Eleanor cried, in the balcony.
Lamb looked up towards Steve and Eleanor.
That... that bitch.
Delta thought.
Prologue The Beginning
Ah... BioShock 2... one of my favorite games and a worthy game to write about. I changed the plot a little, as I didn't want to just recite the game on ... but anyways... I will post chapter 2 a little later...
Until then, please review.
Adios.
