Chapter 9
Rapture, Secrets and Gathering II
-Annabeth's POV-
I can't believe it we are finally here in Rapture. The place where Percy is being held captive, as I watched as our sub gets nearer into the city I can't help but wonder who was that Elena person is. I somehow weird feeling that she and Percy might have a relationship or something other than that there was this Alpha person. This two people are my leads into finding Percy. I sub suddenly stopped in what appears to be some sort of tunnel then we watched as our front port hole came into view of a video.
"Greetings people from the surface, I am Diane Marie Johnson." The woman said in the video
"We are what we call the successors of the Rapture family from the great Sophie Lamb." Miranda continued
"You are most welcomed in our humbled home and welcome once more." The video ended with our sub surfacing in an intact tram like station.
When our sub surface we notice some sort human running with a lead pipe in his hand. Then two hook like projectile was seen impaling him on the ground. The weird creature thing was actually hanging from the ceiling then he dropped down in crouch position examining its prey.
"What is this fresh blood for us." The creature thing said
"No matter, all of you pretty things will be joining us or die trying." The creature thing said
Before we can comprehend something the creature just started attacking our sub we see the hooks to be melting through the metal. Before any more damage can be taken several flying robots suddenly can be seen flying and started shooting on the creature thing. While the robots chase the creature thing we suddenly heard what sounds to something ringing.
"Hey guys here that ringing?" Luke asked
There were chorused of yes and yeah. I then looked at the right side of the door of the sub to some sort of radio or phone. I picked and answered
"Hello?" I answered
"Hello, I am staff sergeant Nick Miller of the United States Army. Who is this?" Nick asked
"Um…" I was lost for words what should I tell this man
"Annabeth hand it to me. I will handle this." Poseidon said
I handed the phone to lord Poseidon and then he answered
"This is US special forces designated Shark, over." Poseidon said
"I didn't know that there were reinforcements, but I think we need help, sir." Staff Sgt Nick said
"Well, I will fully brief you once we meet. Where is your location?" Poseidon asked
"I am located on the old Fontaine Fisheries. Just follow the signs to lead you to the tram station then take it here." Staff Sgt Nick said
"Understood, Shark out." Poseidon said
With that final message lord Poseidon ended the call. One thing I notice I never knew Percy's dad can be militaristic even not in his Roman form.
"Since when did you know those military terms, also why Shark is your codename?" My mother asked
"Simple, Call of Duty." Lord Poseidon said with a grin
All of us busted out in laughing while my mom just rolled her eyes because of Lord Poseidon's antics. As we all got out of our mini submarine and onto this terminal for this submarine bay we thought on how are going to convince the Army man about are true intentions here in Rapture.
As we are now in what appears to be the lobby area we decided to head towards the stairs that will lead us to the Lobby area. When we reach the stairs there was several rubble blocking our path.
"Let me handle this." Clarisse said as she brought out two packs of C4 explosives out of her bag
"Are you crazy?! Do you want flood the entire room with us in it?" I exclaimed
"Hmmm, yeah you could say like that." Clarisse said
Before both of us start to fight Valdez decided to intervene.
"Alright Ladies let me handle this." Leo said
Leo brought out some sort of sledgehammer then slammed it on the rubble blocking our path.
"Ladies, first." He said gesturing to the stairs.
Before Clarisse decided to hit Leo with the butt of her gun, her boyfriend Chris decided to grabbed her arm and shakes his head saying 'not now'. I decided just to head up to the stairs. They noticed that I was already heading towards what appears to be the lobby or some sort of reception area. There I was completely awestruck on how these mortals are able to build a city under the ocean. My mother was also awestruck on how they managed to build this city even the structure fascinated her. The radio begun to ring again and this time Lord Poseidon decided to answer it.
"Hello?" Lord Poseidon answered
"Hello, this is Samuel Maxis who is this?" Sam said from the radio
"This Special forces codenamed shark, over." Lord Poseidon said
"Oh Shit, this can't be good. Anyway I want you or if you have companions meet up with Nick and his squad, got it?" Sam said
"Yeah, we got it." Lord Poseidon said
"Good meet up with them then tell Nick to head to Fort Frolic then we can… Alpha and Epsilon watch out for that Brute and Tank!" Sam said before the connection went to static.
"That was odd." Leo said
'I was sure I heard the man said Alpha. He must me be the lead that we needed to find Percy.' I thought.
"I think we found our possible lead into finding that sea spawn of yours Poseidon." My mother said towards Lord Poseidon
"Yeah I think so. What do you think Annabeth?" Lord Poseidon said
"Yes Lord Poseidon, I think so." I said
"Alright let's keep going then." Jason said
Of course little did we know that this was our beginning of our journey around Rapture.
-Time skip back to Alpha and the crew-
Alpha's POV
Alright let's get all of your readers up to speed on what's was currently happening. Well since Me, Sam and Epsilon are trapped here in Adonis Luxury Resort with a crazy Nanny of my daughter and with her crazy followers. Somehow they are working for this bigger group like some sort of successor of what Sam says the Rapture Family of doctor Sophie Lamb.
Anyhow I am currently walking around the place and heading to the location of the old pawnshop, of course the little sister riding on my back was pointing towards the dead body on the centre of the area. The good thing about the place we are heading is there are only few splicers .Near the body of course there was some sort of altar. I walked towards it and picked up the recorder.
"Huh, an altar and is that a recorder?" Epsilon said
"Your right, grab that recorder then we should play it inside the pawnshop."
I quickly grabbed the recorder and then started placing several traps in case the splicers started to attack us. I laid multiple traps around the place. I also added several trap rivets at every entrance that I can see where they might come out. Once I know that is safe enough I placed the little sister down near the corpse and let her work her magic. I readied my Machine gun and Electrobolt plasmid and ready for the fight
-3rd Person POV-
While Alpha placed the little sister down Epsilon was on the rooftops providing cover from above while Sam brought out several speakers out the nearby pawnshop and set it upped before the splicers arrive. He would probably add some fighting music while fighting the horde of splicers back. Once the speakers are set upped he then plugged it to what appears to be some sort of laptop from the pawnshop and turned on then he readied his custom M4 carbine.
When the splicers sense that there was some Big daddy left her little sister they then ran towards his direction. Alpha, Epsilon and Sam anticipated it and they cocked their guns and took aim on any direction that where they might come out. Sam of course hit play on the laptop and played I will not bow by Breaking Benjamin.
The splicers were pouring out at every entrance they can see. Epsilon was holding off several splicers from the rooftop while providing cover for Sam and Alpha at the ground. Several splicers were being killed by their traps. Alpha was unloading his machine gun at the splicers charging at the little sister and using his plasmids. Sam on the other hand was holding off another horde using his M4 carbine and his own plasmid. When Sam's M4 run out of ammo he then unsheathed his katana and activated is Electrobolt plasmid. His Electrobolt plasmid was sparking throughout his entire left arm while his right hand was holding his katana. The entire horde of splicers that was charging at him stopped and flinch on how scary he looked. Sam just smirked then shot them with his Electrobolt which can do a chain lightning. Killing several splicers that were in front while stunning the others, Sam then charged at the horde slicing and slashing his way through out the horde.
Alpha was almost making a mountain of dead splicers. Once the group had finally killed the remaining splicers they all decided to meet at the entrance of the pawnshop.
-Alpha's POV-
Once we killed all the splicers we decided to meet up at the entrance of the old pawnshop. I of course carried the little sister to her hidey hole. I of course preferred saving the little sisters. Once I was near the entrance to her vent I then brought out my hand and placed a small glow on it then place it on her head realising her from that disease.
"Thank you." The little sister said
She then climbed up to the vent then went somewhere else. I of course went back to my companions. When I reached the entrance of the old pawnshop Sam was cleaning his Katana while Epsilon is reloading hisguns. I then went one of the corners near them and started to do a check on how much ammo I still have left. I noticed that I still have enough for another wave for all my guns except for my shotgun which I found I only have enough for just a few more rounds.
"Hey Alpha, you still have that recorder?" Epsilon said in a groan
I groan in response saying 'yes' to him before I got back on checking my ammo and gear. I really need to upgrade my drill since I always use it on close quarters. I also need fuel for it as well I need to upgrade or get some attachment for my guns.
"Play the recorder we might get some info out of it." Sam said removing me from my train of thought.
I nodded and grabbed the recorder off my pack and place it on the table. Sam was leaning on the table while Epsilon was seating in front of me. Then we hit the play button and listen carefully about the message.
-Line Break to Nico's POV-
-Nico's POV-
While we were walking around Rapture I swear I think I was hearing something like is that music? Well I think everybody can hear the music from any point here in Rapture.
"Is that music that I hear?" Chris said
"Yeah, I will not Bow by Breaking Benjamin." Apollo said as he bobbed his head to the beat of the music
Artemis just whacked her brother's head for being stupid
"Ow, what was that for?" Apollo said
Lady Artemis just rolled her eyes and muttered idiot before catching up with her two hunters. One thing I discovered about this place it's almost like Alaska but the difference is that here it limits our powers to a mortal meaning no powers while our Olympian parent's power is limited to a demigod standards.
As we were walking around Rapture we suddenly found ourselves near the tram station or the Bathysphere, but we decided to make a quick pit stop near the café. When we reached the café there were several Splicers and we just killed all of them. We decided to take a breather before heading to the Fontain Fisheries. While we were searching for anything to eat I stumbled upon what appears like some sort of recorder.
I grabbed the recorder and went back to the others when I reached the place I saw several bags of chips, several sodas and several fresh water bottles, together with some Pep bars.
"Hey Nico, what did you manage to find?" Hazel asked
"This." I said when I showed them the recorder
When I placed the recorder on the table everybody's reaction was confused. Hermes and his kids as well as Apollo were beyond confused together with Leo. Athena and Annabeth on the other hand look to be interested on what the recorder contains.
"Play the recorder Nico." Lady Athena said
I just nodded and pressed the play button. The recorder then started to play.
"Audio Journal entry 7497: Hello to anyone who might have found this audio journal my name is Fredrick Menendez. I am one who helped Doctor Suchong on making the protector programs. I am also one of the surgeons and doctors who created Alpha. Please if you manage to find this recording you must find my two more recording concerning about Alpha. Alpha may be just be one of those walking palooka in a smelly diving suit but to me he is one of my greatest creation and I also consider as a son. Please find my other two recordings the next recording may be found on the old Fontain Fisheries at Neptune Bounty."
With that last message the recorder went silent as well digest all the info we got form the audio diary. Whoever Fredrick Menendez is he seems to know a lot about this Alpha guy.
"We need to find that other audio diary." Annabeth suggested
