"Where are we going?"

"To Persephone."

"And thats? Why?"

"My..friend is there and he can give us information."

Noticing a tape near the control Ivan pushed what he was assuming the play button was.

"My name is Minh Linh Lien and I was been bought from an orphanage. I'm now friends with a boy named Yao ,who I met down here. Me and him fight a lot but I know I can trust him. The people here taught us to stab people with some weird needle things for Adam. I wanted to protect the younger ones instead when I saw one die while her big daddy was fighting. So I told them and they let me. I tried to persuade Yao, but he was being a kid and would rather be protected saying fighting was scary. The little ones are already calling me big sister." The tape ended there.

Looking at Kiku "Do you think?" "I doubt it, Yaos a common chinese name." Ivan looked at his shoes with a sigh.

The train screeched with everyone was thrown forward. "Get off of me." Alfred shouted everyone was on top of him. "My nose is broken" Francis pouted!" Kiku released an exasperated sigh as Ivan smiled.

The radio screeched as the radio's icon switched to a man with a cat on his head. "*Yawn* I'm in the ward past the inmates room." With a click they were left alone again.

Going out the room they saw a woman in a bunny mask staring at them. "Let me handle this. Hello there delicate flower. Do you need a strong man to-" The pipe hidden in her sleeve smacked across his face. Blood poured from his nose before she aimed again.

"Try out your new powers!" Kiku spoke. Francis let his arm shape as bees flew from his skin and attacked the woman. "Ah, they'll keep my face beautiful now." "They're not doing much." Ivan shot a beam of electricity. Stunned but not giving up easily she still tried to move.

"Hero's turn now." Snapping his fingers she was set on fire. As she was running at them she died of the burns. Ivan walked to her body and started checking it out. "What are you doing?" Finding anything useful." Shifting the body to the other side ' "Hmm, only five dollars. how pitiful." Continuing the journey, they hit a mob. Finishing quickly they got 30 dollars, an audio diary, ammo, a machine gun for Ivan, a shotgun for Alfred, a spear gun for Francis, and a camera for Kiku.

Listening to the audio diary, "My name is Ludwig Beilschmidt and I was dragged here by this huge monster in armor along with my brother. As it turns out we were forced here because of our intelligence due to our great grandmother Tenenbaum. She created those monsters and they wanted us to do the same but more better and efficient. But after talking to an ah "experiment" I wanted to stop. So I took my brother and Feliciano, the "experiment". I knew he would just wave his flag anytime so I knew he wouldn't survive. not only are we leaving this area we are leaving Rapture."

Entering a room with only one door on the right side of the room, they knocked on it. Green eyes looked though the slot before opening.

"Hello Kiku." "H-Heracles." "Come in and take a seat then we'll talk. You can drink whatevers on the table." The room was velvet with silk chairs and a carpet. The chairs in a circle with a table with cats licking milk from a dish on top.

Once all settled in "I guess I'll start the the beginning, Rapture is 100 years old. Before it became like this 90 years before it was clean and beautiful. And a man Frank Fontaine became to sell Adam. And as you know people became to crave it. Well, to meet that demand they started making Adam from girls and have them gather Adam like recycling from dead bodies. Two people stopped that cycle and Rapture became better but not by much. So about 50 years after a group from the surface killed all the splicers and healed the city.

"Until 15 when the creator reintroduced Adam. Most of the documents were taken after the city was healed so no one know what Adam's effects were. So again a huge demand. So here the story now. Mostly everyone will try to kill you. Though the creator is a machine left from the guy who healed Rapture. It was supposed to protect us and keep us from becoming Adam hungry.(Snort "What a huge success that was." "Alfred shut up." )

"Using children and teenagers we made Adam gathers. We also used them as experiments such as cross breeding slugs, transplants, and switching their jobs; thats why some you may encounter will be different from ones I'm going to tell you about. Kids around 4-8 are made into little sisters or brothers. The brothers are more aggressive about Adam. Teens around 9-13 are made into big sisters or brothers. Thats the age where they can fight and gather. So no big parents protect them. Anything higher is a Big Daddy or Big Mommy. The Bigs protect the little ones. As such the little ones are always near a big daddy or mommy and a big sibling only if the parent is dead. 7 years ago all the kids grew up and since everyones crazy no kids, so we bought them or kidnapped them. For the kidnapped ones we set the scene to look like a murder so the parents wouldn't try to find them.

"So we're still functioning because of that. But many of us are tired of the whole Adam business so we were trying to end Rapture. For the past 5 years we did what we could. The scientist developed plasminds to heal all of them. Even ones to heal splicers, though that one only ends their strength and addiction, so they're still crazy. As far as I know there aren't many remaining parents a few big siblings and 5 or so little ones. Rapture has had many people come and go, with the little and bigs going with them.

"Please help me rescue the little ones then I can finally leave this place." "Yeah okay" the four said simultaneously. "Thank you, now here." Holding his hands out sitting in his palm were four tonics.

Alfred quickly grabbed the one showing a little girl. "Its the hero's job." Francis reached for the one with the medium sized armor person. A few inches from his hand, Ivan swiftly grabbed it. "KOLKOLKOL." "Uh never mind," instead taking the huge armored bottle. With the ever so polite Kiku taking the splicer bottle. "I'll help later." Hercules yawned.

Getting up and all ready to leave a thought hit Kiku. "Hercules where-" A sleeping Hercules sat with his head back drool leaking from his mouth with a cat snoozing on his lap. "Guess we'll find out." They securely locked the door before heading into the train.

Not sure if Vietnam's name is correct since I'm not Vietnamese but its supposed to mean intelligent spring lotus.
