Chapter 1: Arrival to Rapture
Date: 10/1/1958 three months before the war.
'Well I'll have to admit the place looks pretty good.' I thought as I looked around having arrived 20 minutes ago. I walked around taking in the sights before coming to the main center where a group of other people were standing around three men. "Welcome to Rapture everyone. I'm Bill McDonagh one of the council men of Rapture. You all had been chosen for your job skills because they are needed to help keep Rapture in good shape or to add in more goods being made. Now come up and get a booklet and give what ever money you have. We have our own currency here so you will be given the same amount you have on you." McDonagh who was in the middle said to us as we listened to him.
As the others in the group and I did so I overheard the other two of the men speak to each other in low voices. "Looks like half of the number we were hoping for." "Yep the boss is not going to be happy about that." "No shit he's not going to be happy." Before I got to the table and got the money and the booklet. I give my thanks and left to a table and read the booklet. I learned the laws or rules as they called them and found the maps on it. Using the maps I found a place to rent at Apollo Square. I then looked around and found a job at the Fisheries as a salvage diver which i did for the military before I came here. I was told to return tomorrow at 6:30am for a few crates fell off the deck of the ship we came on and they are being payed to get them.
Next day.
I got there at 6:25am to get really. We went out on a sub or bathysphere as they called it. We got there in a few minutes. One of the crew give me a harpoon gun telling me. "There are sharks in the area, so keep an eye out. If we kill one we will bring it back to sell the meat and hide." He said to me before we left the sub. We worked for 2 hours and recovered the crates along with a fair amount of metal and some items that we found from a nearby sunken ship that I found. We were heading back to the sub when "SHARK" One of the others yelled I turned and saw it coming at me. I moved to the side and pull the trigger for the gun and shot the harpoon point blank at it's head killing it. The body keep moving till it hit the sub bouncing off moving slower away from it. The body was put in the sub. As we headed back the others were looking at me like I was a god I told them the it was not the first time I dealt with sharks but was the first time I killed one.
We turned in the crates to the constables. we sold the metal and items to groups that use or sell them, while selling the shark to a restaurant. I went home with $455 in cash. 'Well this was a good day of work. I could tell that this was one of their better days so I will have to not get used to this. Oh well." I thought before going to sleep.
Date: 12/31/1958 time: 10:35pm
Well things have been going well for me. I have been doing well on the job they made me a leader of one of the 4 crews that work for the salvage company. I'm well liked by the crew due to me splitting the pay evenly to all of the crew and add a bit more if they were injured during the job as long as it was not intentionally done to themselves. Two new guys learned that they hard way with me booting them off the crew.
I walked around enjoying the way people were having fun I went to a bar called Mark's Bar which the crew and I go to time to time. I met with my crew and they toasted to me. "Hey here's the best crew boss of all time." One of them said as they did. "No need to do that." I told them. "No need? Oh come on man. No need to be humble sir. You are the best and most fair one in doing things on the job and giving out pay." "Even then i made a few mistakes." "Perhaps so but that doesn't mean you're not the best to us sir." "Fine." I said before I sighed at them. "Just don't drink too much. I don't want to have to drag your dumb asses to your homes." I told them with a grin.
Then the city wide speaker system came on. "Hello everyone hope you all are having a good time night." Andrew Ryan said."You all know we had some trouble this year. However that will not be so for the new year for 1959 will be Rapture's best year!" everyone in the bar give a cheer. Then a loud explosion was heard from here. "WHAT THE HELL." One of the crew members yelled before I ran out and saw the Kashmir Restaurant with some holes on it's walls. I ran forward to the main door and went in. i was starting to help people when the gunfire started. I pulled out my gun and looked in the main part of the place. There were men firing without care at people. I shot at them and killed 3 before having to find cover behind a table. I returned fire killing another 6 while telling people to get out and giving them cover fire. The rest were killed or too wounded to fight by the constables.
One of the constables came up to me. "Thanks for the help we were caught off guard when they started shooting. They would had killed more if it wasn't for you." He said as medics came in and started to help the wounded. "No problem will say the I came to help people get out and get some medical aid when this happened. I told him. After I was checked by the medics. I left the restaurant and started to head home. As I went I carefully looked around in case there are more nearby. There were none so I got home sat on the conch and thought to myself. 'Well shit. Looks like things are going to go to hell in a hand basket. Going to have to get another gun, a machine gun if I can and get a good amount of food and medical supplies with some cash if I need more. May as well get a plasmid or two as well.' I think for a minute before deciding on Electrobolt and perhaps Old Man Winter or Incinerate. Along with Armored Shell 1 and 2 to be safe. No more than that unless I have no other choice. I then decided to go to sleep.

To those who read the book that was made. You would know that no one else was aloud to come to Rapture however I needed a way to have my Oc to come to Rapture before the war.
May have a pairing later and/or rise the rating.
