...Hi. The next Chapter is here...that's all I really have for now... On with the story!
Disclaimer: Still don't own Bioshock and I've run out of things I would like different...for now.
David closes the door to the establishment that he rested in as he leaves it before glancing up at the sign to see what the place was called in the circumstance that he might need to return "Eve's Garden...interesting choice for a name." He says to himself before going on his way down the corridor while keeping his newly 'acquired' pistol ready to fire at any sign of trouble "You know they need something down here that could detect enemies or at least people in general. THAT would be useful." The pre-teen thinks as he slowly goes through the area, but he pauses when he feels the ground tremble a little as well as hearing the sound of heavy metal boots stepping onto the ground with a thud causing him to blink in confusion "Mr. B? Or maybe it's another Mr. B instead of the one I know... on the other hand I have no idea how long I've been out so it could be the Mr. B I know." His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of someone screaming "You insolent child! Show me the respect I deserve." This makes David turn his attention to another once-wealthy woman pointing a pistol at him in causing the thirteen year-old to scowl in annoyance before he quickly takes aim and fires off a bullet "Do you hear me you bra-" The woman's screeching is cut off as the bullet pierces her skull before going through her brain then causing a splatter of pink mass to come out of the back of her head as the projectile exits her skull with a some of the brain -as well as blood- going with it "All you people seem to be is annoyances and will be removed as such." The aviation Hybrid calmly states out loud to no one in particular as he goes over to the corpse to search through it for anything useful "Lets see... fifteen more dollars...one bullet...and another one of those needles with the blue substance." He checks off in his head what he finds before retrieving the gun that the 'lady' had only to find one bullet in it "Oh yeah that's very helpful." He mutters while shaking his head, but he manages to double what he lost in bullets as he loads up the two bullets before he notices the sound of the heavy metal boots is getting closer.
David quickly rushes over to the top of two staircases and leans over one of the railing before thinking "That is so not the Mr. B I know." While the Metallic Creature does resemble the Mr. B that he had became accustomed, but it obviously wasn't the same one since it's color scheme also has red stripes in a pattern; However, the one thing that sets it really a part from the Mr. B David knows is the lack of the massive drill on it's right arm. Instead, as a replacement to the regular drill, a rather deadly looking harpoon that seemed to be designed to be specifically used to kill things making the stripped Mr. B quite a frightening sight to the Pre-teen "Better not mess with that Mr. B." He thinks wisely as he watches the hulking figure make it's way out of his line of sight downstairs making the Aviation Hybrid to get curious about where the massive protector is heading despite his previous thoughts; Consequently, this causes David to make a rash decision and jump onto the railing of the staircase on his side before grinding down to the lower floor, but what he failed to realize is at the bottom of the staircase was a group of enemies consisting of two once rich women with butterfly masks that have pistols on them and three thugs wielding a wrench, pipe and crowbar respectively "Oh damn it." The thirteen year-old muttered as he reached the bottom of the rail before jumping off the rail and onto the pipe wielding thug's head effectively caving his skull in "Well that's one of them." He counted in his head while quickly turning just in time to see a wrench in a downward arch before it smashes into his forehead causing his vision to double as he stumbles backwards in pain.
The two women split up and take cover behind some structures so they could fire at their new enemy while staying relatively safe while the remaining thugs rush David trying to finish him before he could recover, but unfortunately for them their enemy manages to lash out blindly with a right hook that luckily manages to hit the wrench wielding thug in the gut making the thug double over before he spins around with a round house that hits the back of the crowbar using thug's leg causing the thug to collapse "Ow...throbbing head." The pre-teen thinks as his vision resets itself just in time to see the the wrench thug charge at him again with a yell of anger that quickly gets cut off by a well placed chop to the thug's throat curtsy of David "Too easy." He states with a slight smirk as the thug drops the crowbar and clutches his neck as he chokes for a few seconds, and a few seconds is all David needs as he stomps down on the edge of the crowbar that is pointed up causing the metal tool to be spun up into the air before he kicks it with a round house in mid-air propelling it into the head of one of the women that decided to peak around a corner to see what was happening killing her instantly while enraging the other woman into acting instead of hiding "You have no right to attack your betters!" The remaining woman yells while coming out from behind cover and firing at just as the temporarily stunned thug recovers, and the -now weaponless- thug charges with the wrench thug again while swinging his fists in wild hay makers that prove to rather ineffective because of how easily they could be dodged before a well aimed side kick from the thirteen year-old breaks his left knee causing him to crumple to the ground in pain as his companion steps forward prepared to make the child before him pay.
That is until a pistol is leveled to his face causing him to stumble backward while rethinking the idea of attacking his enemy, but David had no problem with attacking the thug that dared to charge him by tossing the pistol upward causing the thug's eyes to follow the moving object before he feels a fist being embedded in his gut once more making him to double over with blood spitting out of his mouth hitting the pre-teen's jacket; Consequently, this enrages David as he grabs the man's hair and pulls his face up to eye level "Did you just spit blood on my jacket?" He asks in an oddly calm voice even though his eyes seem to have a barely restrained flame of anger that sends more fear shivering up the man's spine then yelling could ever do, and he squeaks -from fear or from still being in pain is unknown- out "Y-yes..." Honesty was not the best course of action for the man if he wanted to continue living since as soon as he admits that the flame in David's eyes no longer were restrained and he brings his knee up sharply into the thug's jaw shattering it as well as forcing several of his bottom teeth to embed themselves into the roof of his mouth after they were launched out of his lower jaw, but this was only the beginning of an onslaught of attacks as the pre-teen shifts his grip to the back of the thugs head before pulling him into his right fist; Thus, breaking his nose and making blood squirt out of the two nasal caverns before David relinquishes his grip on the man causing him to fall onto the ground then he takes advantage of this by slamming his foot on the thug's back causing his spine to fracture but not break "I'm gonna make you wish you were never created." The thirteen year-old growls out as he grabs the man's two limp arms by the wrists before he continues with a sadistic smile "But I'm gonna wish this would never end."
The thug's eyes widen as he feels pressure on the fractured section of his spin and his arms being pulled back before starting to scream in pain as he feels the tendons that allows his arms to stay attached being torn by the continual force that the aviation hybrid is applying until, to the thugs absolute horror, his arms are ripped off his body savagely as his blood squirts massively through the two sections where his arms where once connected, but unfortunately his suffering isn't over as he was kicked over into his back to see the sight of a enraged pre-teen holding his detached arms as he was bleeding out "How does it feel? To have your life draining away from you?" David asks knowing full well that by now that the thug would be unable to say anything before bringing the detached arms above his head "Well I'll see you in hell." As soon as that was said he brings down the left arm down hard enough to break the wrist of the arm on the dying thug's chest then he brings down the right arm on the man's head before smashing the left arm into his gut, and the thirteen year-old boy proceeds to beat the hell out of the already dying man with his own limbs until five minutes after the man died then he tosses the arms next to the corpse that couldn't be even slightly recognized as a the form or shape of a man while a large pool of expanding blood is coming out of the corpse as the rest of the blood exits it before the pre-teen holds out his right hand right as the pistol was at that point effectively catching it without looking; However, David isn't done yet as he suddenly turns to the last remaining enemy before him- who is cowering in fear in a corner as she witnessed the brutality the aviation hybrid is capable of, and .
"P-please don't kill me! I'll never bother you again!" She cried out hopping for mercy as the Angel of Death approaches her "Your right... you won't bother me again." He states venomously as he reaches the woman before grabbing her throat while lifting her up against the wall roughly "How many bullets do you have for that gun?" He asks expecting an answer, but the only sound the woman was capable of doing was a choking one as her body was desperately trying to draw some air into her burning lungs causing him to demand once more "How many!?" The Pre-teen shouted as he brought her to him then back into the wall harshly making the back of her skull crack then he notices that she seems to be trying to say something, so he loosens his grip on her throat just enough for her croak out "f-four bullets...in the...gun...t-three...on...m-me...!" David releases his grip on her allowing her body to fall onto the floor in an undignified manner as she gasps loudly while gathering as much air as she can into her lungs before he states "Give me the bullets and I might let you live, but if you decide not to or attempt to trick me you'll die and then I will get your bullets." The warning is clearly understood as the woman hurries to empty her gun and empty her pockets -I'm assuming pockets since I have no idea where else she would have them- of the ammo before giving them to David "T-there! That's all I have!" She says while the hybrid pockets the ammo after loading his pistol before leveling his gun to the woman's head "Thanks... Now to deal with you." He states causing the woman's eyes to widen within the eye holes of her butterfly mask "W-what!? I-I did what you asked!" She exclaims in shock as the pre-teen clicks the hammer back on the gun while he states "How do I know that? You could have lied in the first place and kept some ammo for yourself so you could shot me in the back as I turn away. After all I wouldn't have survived this long without being cautious."
The woman proceeds to quickly show him the gun before flipping her pockets -Again assuming- inside out revealing a first aid kit and twenty dollars "T-this is everything! I swear I have no other place I could hide anything!" She cries out making David lower his gun while considering this "Hm...true..." He starts before bringing his pistol up to her head once more with a glare on his face as he continues "But how do I know you won't gather a group of friends and cause trouble for me later?" The pre-teen inquires while pressing the gun into her forehead as the woman begins babbling "I won't! You have my word and a person is only as good as his/her word which makes me a good person since I have never broken my word and you have my word on that beca-" Growing tired of the woman's constant chatter the thirteen year old interrupts her harshly "Alright I get it! You can go... but be warned. If I should find even an hint that you have done anything to draw more enemies on me I will hunt you down and fit your skin into a bag so I can carry more stuff with me!" The threat sinks in rather quickly as the woman silently nods frantically before David steps aside "Get out of my sight." The woman is quick to comply as she attempts rushes away from him as fast as possible while stumbling, and she leaves behind the first aid as well as the twenty bucks which the pre-teen takes before searching the other bodies only to find six dollars between them "That was definitely worth the trouble they caused." He thought sarcastically while getting back onto his feet before examining his jacket that now has six blood stains making him groan "Fantastic..." David mutters to himself as he brings his left hand over one of the stains while focusing before moving his hand away revealing no more stain, and he continues to do this to the other five spots while thinking "What to do now... I've slaughtered these people, lost sight of the Mr. B I was going to follow and I have no idea where I am!" His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of heavy thumping heading his way though "Scratch that. Stripped Mr. B is back." He thinks while taking cover around a corner before peaking out slightly to watch the more dangerous Mr. B.
He tenses as the stomping gets louder while deciding to activate his target dummy ability so he could attempt to flee on the grounds that this thing is dangerous, but he pauses as he hears a sweet young voice that just exclaims innocent "Come on Mr. B! We need to gather some ADAM and find our special guest." The voice cheerfully explains just as the owner of the voice comes into sight with her blonde ponytails and purple dress along with a teddy bear in her hands that has a red bow around it's stomach causing David to blink in surprise as the hulking figure of the stripped Mr. B follows the girl with a metallic groan "Annie?" He whispers to himself before stepping out cautiously, but the movement catches the attention of the huge protector who almost immediately maneuvers itself in front of Annie before he puts it's harpoon arm out with the weapon spinning with an unsaid -but clearly understood- threat causing the receiver of the threat to think "That's a drill to!? Oh come on!" His imagination starts showing him scenarios of him being pierced in multiple ways only to have the harpoon to start spinning very fast adding to the already massive amount of pain "Run. Run now." That was his first and foremost thought that he was about to execute, but the Annie's voice rings out from behind her overly protective creature "Who is it Mr. B? Is it an Angel?" She asks innocently before peaking out from her Mr. B's left side then she gasps happily before running over to David and hugging his waist -which causes him to blink in confusion since he is not used to signs of affection "Mr. Angel! It's nice to see you and look Mr. B was just sleeping!" She gestures to the clearly different Mr. B making David contemplate the condition of the little girls once more "The girls must be conditioned to accept another 'Mr. B' in the case scenario of their own one perishing during one of these ADAM collecting outings... I wonder how many this one girl has gone through alone." Despite his dislike for the creatures known as 'Mr. Bs' David had to admit that it is rather sad that they only existed to die while guarding the children, but he is also thankful that their are creatures as dedicated to the young girls that they are willing to die for them "U-um... Yeah... I see that." He finally answers the girl making her smile widely before she steps back and holds the teddy bear above her head "This is for you." She says while getting on her tip-toes in order to give him the gift.
David stares at the bear in confusion as he slowly takes it into his hands "Thank you... I guess." He tells the young girl who cheerfully replies "It's not from me silly! It's from Her." The vagueness of that last statement catches his attention making him think about who could 'Her' be, but he doesn't linger on that long as his fingers brush the metal ridge of a zipper making him focus on the teddy bear he just received before looking at the back of it to actually see the zipper "Why is this here? Is this one of those Build-a-Bear teddies? No...that concept hasn't been invented yet. At least I don't think so... Note to self: Find out what year you are in." After the mental note is added he removes the red ribbon and unzips the back of the bear before a bottle falls out of the back, but luckily David reacts fast enough to catch it before it could crash into the ground and shatter before recognizing it as a ADAM bottle that is labeled 'Two Hundred Units' "Who would just give out a bottle of two hundred units of ADAM? According to everything I have learned so far is that ADAM is very precious to everyone down in this hell hole." He pockets the bottle next to the nearly empty bottle of Adam before examining the inside of the bear once more only to find a piece of paper which he takes out and reads out loud "Hello 'Mr. Angel' I have received word from two of my little ones that a kind and caring- boy does she have that wrong- person is in rapture helping them. I would like to contact you as well as reward you. This is only part of your reward. Should you desire the rest turn the frequency on you radio to the one written below. Sincerely, Dr. T."
"Contact huh?" David mutters while looking at the frequency written below the message before he weighs the choices in his head "Contacting this person could cause me to take a side in whatever the hell is happening down here as well as cause me a lot of trouble in the long run; however, since I have saved two girls from the clutches of those creatures -not to mention slaughter, threaten and brutalize them- I must have already picked a side in many eyes . On the other hand this 'Dr. T' could have some resources that could aid me down here and let me have an easier time with the enemies that await me...also she seems to have these girl's health at the top of her list of priorities." He continues to examine both the pros and cons of both sides before getting the short range radio out of his back pocket -which is surprisingly still there- before tuning the frequency to the one on the paper then pressing one of the buttons on the side "Um...this is...Mr. Angel I guess...are you there?"
For a few moments only the sound of static could be heard then a click sounds from the radio before a few more moments of silence is heard, and finally a slightly rough feminine voice that has a slight German accent speaks "Hello Mr. Angel... My little ones have taken a liking to you and I could use your help in order to protect them."
The mysterious -to all those who haven't played Bioshock- Dr. T has entered the spotlight! What does she want with David? What connection to the young children does she have? Are these questions getting on your nerves? Well too bad, but please tune into the next chapter and review while your at it! See ya then!
