It had taken a while due to a couple of splicer attacks, but Julie had finally pulled herself together. She was still upset, but at least she was thinking straight again.
She stood and retrieved her helmet from where she'd thrown it. It looked okay to her. She put it back on. If she really needed to go outside Rapture, she'd grab a different helmet.
What now? She had to go somewhere. She definitely couldn't stay here. She Scouted outside, set the splicers that had gathered outside on fire, and then went outside herself to finish them off. She started walking. The landlord's office was a bust. She couldn't think of anything else to look for. She guessed she'd just follow the arrow again.
"Atkins loves bathyspheres."
It was the Irish lady. Julie recognized her voice. She turned towards the voice and saw an ADAM hallucination standing near an apartment door. Julie had wondered what this woman looked like. Turned out she was a small woman with curly hair…who was looking right at her.
Julie blinked and tilted her head. The lady crossed her arms with a raised eyebrow. "Well? What are you going to do now?" And then the hallucination disappeared.
…Julie was now sufficiently disturbed. She hurriedly walked away.
After a few minutes of walking and trying not to think about how that hallucination had seemed to know she was there, Julie decided that it was worth a try and pulled out her radio. "Ma, where's the bathysphere station located?"
"As far as I know it is on the same level as the landlord's office."
Julie nodded. "Okay, if it's not too far away I'll check it out."
Her stomach growled.
"After I get some food."
