Got another review from Big Sister K, again… I can tell that people are reading this story, but there aren't any that are reviewing it as of yet. I just hope someone else would give me a review so that way I can tell who it is and give props. And K, don't count this as a disrespect or anything, but I appreciate your reviews and hope you enjoy the rest of the story. And speaking of, this next entry involves Meltzer discovering a mysterious record and something completely shocking.
Chapter Notes
I'm going to add the lyrics to Rapture's Anthem in this chapter. Though I don't know if it's the right thing because I do remember that Fanfiction had some kind of strict rule a while back that involves not adding lyrics of any song on any chapter. But I've seen stories on Fanfiction where they have lyrics posted so I'm going to give this a shot. If it gets removed, well I would apologize in advance for what would happen.
Disclaimer: I don't own Bioshock, its sequel, Something in the Sea, or the anthem to Rapture.
Entry Fourteen: Another Strange Delivery
Audio Log of Mark Meltzer dated June 29th 1968
I was on my way back home from the library, getting more newspapers between 47 and 58 that involved the Vanishing until I saw another mysterious package on my Welcome mat. Took it in with me and called up the neighbors again to see if they saw anything. To my surprised they saw a red light around my house again. No doubt that this is the very same individual that left off the 'lunch box' a few weeks ago. Though I don't know if it was the kidnapper or not.
Ask for what package itself, there wasn't anything that was similar to a package. No box that belonged to the post office or a return address just like the first one. But this wasn't another box of any kind; instead it was what appears to be a vinyl album of some kind. Been looking at the cover and has a title that says, "Rapture Records" and has a picture of some type of city in the background. Hmm… Never heard of Rapture Records before. Maybe it's a new industry or something. Though I find it doubtful, be that the album was showing signs of wear and tear around the edges. I got the record in my hand though. Looks like its in good condition, 'cept for the few scratches dotting around. I wonder what this record has that was left at my front door. Well, only one-way to find out.
………………………
Haven't used the record player for a while, might as well be useful for something.
*Click* *click* *squeak*
All right, let's see what we got here…
*snap*
*scratch*
Wonder what's so important about this record?
*music playing*
Hmm… Has pretty nice music though. Sounds like something from the late forties or fifties.
Oh Rise, Rapture Rise!
We send our hopes onto the skies!
Oh Rise, Rapture Rise!
Upon your wings our dreams will fly.
A city in the oceans deep.
A promise that we'll always keep.
To boldly turn our eyes upon the priiiiiiize!
So Rise, Rise, Rise!
Oh Rise, Rapture Rise!
We merrily sing this reprise.
Oh Rise, Rapture Rise!
To help us crush parasites, despised!
A city on Poseidon's floor
A set of ideals we adore
A philosophy we all can emphasize.
So Rise, Ri-
*scratch*
Oh what the Hell?! Don't tell me this record is broken.
"Daddy? Where are you daddy?"
Wait a second… That voice…
"Are you going to come and find me?"
*Scratch*
………..No… It can't be…
Cindy?
Oh… My… God… That was a complete shocker. At least he knows that Cindy is still alive. But what will his reaction be? Stay tune for the next entry. Please Review.
