Hi everyone, I hope everybody had a great and wonderful Christmas this month with their friends, family, and stuff. I certainly did. Oh before I forget and stuff, Happy New Year to everybody here on fanfiction and to everyone across the world today too. Any who, we are finally here for the final chapter of the story, it's been a months since the journey started and the journey must end sadly, but like all endings a new journey is just across the horizon. That's right there's a sequel on its way here starting next month. The sequel and final story of this audio series titled, BioShock 2: Minerva's Den-Slightly More Audio Diaries Of Dr. Ebony will be here around probably I'm hoping for mid January of 2022 and no later than that I think.
As for the five chapters that I said "I" might do or add on to this story, I might write and add them once the series is over but if something comes up for me during next year. I'll probably sadly cancel them or write them out and then posted it up as a short story of five chapters or something. So, fingers crossed everyone.
Anyway, I would like to thank all the authors/writers for putting this story into their favourites and for following the story as well, I really appreciate it and thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul for doing it. I would like to thank my readers too, you guys were there from the beginning when this series started and I hope to see my readers continue reading and writing on with me once this series sadly and tearful ends too. And once again readers, thank you for everything I really appreciate it.
And for the grand finale I would like to thank my only reviewer and author/writer Merendinoemiliano for reviewing the hell out of my story, lol. The author has been here reviewing my BioShock stories since the beginning and I hope to see more from the author once the sequel gets posted up. So thanks Merendinoemiliano for the wonderful and great feedback for this story and once again thanks for reviewing my story and for sticking by it to the end. I really and really appreciate it and I hope you Merendinoemiliano have a great and joyful Happy New Year tonight. Thank you.
And lastly, a friend of mine from Inkbunny who reads this story asked me what would the opening and closing song's be for my BioShock stories. Now I had to really think on this because BioShock takes place during the 1960's, but it's story starts during the late 1940's through 1950's and 1960's. So, here's a list of song's that I think would fit the BioShock game and my story of BioShock too. If you want to listen to these songs then go to Youtube and look them up and you'll find the songs and lyrics there. Their really good songs to listen to as well, but only if you guys and gals want to that is.
BioShock: The Audio Diaries Of Dr. Ebony
Opening: "Sea Of Heartbreak" - Don Gibson - 1961
Closing: "The Old Lamplighter" - The Browns - 1960
BioShock 2: More Audio Diaries Of Dr. Ebony
Opening: "The Race Is on" - George Jones - 1964
Closing: "Lonesome Town" - Ricky Nelson - 1958
BioShock 2: Minerva's Den - Slightly More Audio Diaries Of Dr. Ebony
Opening: "My Love" - Petula Clark - 1965
Closing: "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" - Dusty Springfield - 1966
And that's the list songs I think would be the opening and closing songs of my BioShock stories and that would fit nicely into the BioShock games to as well.
Any who, I hope everyone has a great and wonderful Happy New Year tonight and a nice and joyful weekend too. Also stay safe everyone, bye for now.
Audio Recording Of, Dr. C. Ebony
Audio Date Of Recording: Sometime In 1968 (During when Subject Delta Is captured & locked down while also taking control of a Little Sister.) (This happens in the game to by the way.)
Title: Goodbye For The Last Time
Transcript Of Dr. C. Ebony's Recording:
Body Guard: Sir, I and my men will start taking all of Lamb's stuff and other things that she took from Andrew Ryan back to your labs.
Ebony: Good, then make it happen and be quick about it. I'm not sure when Subject Delta will wake up but I'd like to be out of here before that happens.
Body Guard: Yes sir.
(Ebony turns around and drags a chair behind him as he starts walking toward Sofia Lamb who was tied up and sitting in a chair in front of him. As he finally reached Lamb he turned his chair around behind him and sat down firmly on it with his arms crossed and legs strait and looked at Lamb with a cold and hard stare as his mechanical pet dragon Song sat on his left shoulder with its wings fold in to its sides and tail wrapped around his neck like a necklace.)
Ebony: Well now isn't this pretty a site, you all tied up with rope around your legs and arms looking like a hostage being captured for their first time.
Sofia Lamb: Shut up, Ebony!
Ebony: Hmm so Sofia Lamb let me ask you this? Did you actually think and believe that you could stop Subject Delta from reaching your daughter Eleanor in the first place. Because it seems to me that you underestimated their bond between them and now look at you now looking all broken and beaten like a broken toy that can't be fixed or replaced.
Sofia Lamb: So what, I still have cards that I can still put into play on the table!
Ebony: You think so?
Sofia Lamb: I know so.
Ebony: Well, it seems to me Lamb that you're placing all your high hopes and faith on a bluff and lie as you're pushing all your poker chips into the center of the table and saying "All in." Thinking that all the other poker players will believe your bluff and lie and say things like "I fold." Or "I'm out." Making you think that you've won the game already, but then there's always that one player who doesn't believe your bluffs and lies. We'll call him Delta for now. Anyway, Delta doesn't believe your bluff and lie but also at the same time he has a Royal flush sitting in his hands while you Lamb have nothing but bluffs and lies sitting in your hands. So then Lamb, which hand would win? A hand full of cards with bluffs and lies within it or a handful of cards with a Royal flush in it.
Sofia Lamb: My handful of cards would win of course! After all I'm the one betting it all in.
Ebony: You would think that with the way you play cards Sofia Lamb, but that's the wrong answer though. The Royal flush would win it all.
Sofia Lamb: In other words you think my bluffs and lies won't be able to beat Delta's truth and honestly. Am I correct?
Ebony: You catch on quickly, but yes that is the answer. You think with all the bluffs and lies by your side that it will be enough to overcome and beat the truth and honestly out of Delta, but you couldn't be more wrong Sofia Lamb. How can you sit there and tell me that a bluff or lie could honestly beat the truth and honestly the answers rather simple. A bluff and lie can never beat the truth or honestly ever. That's like saying hate will destroy and beat love, but in actually fact and life it's the other way around. Love trumps hate. And now you lost the game and the truth to Delta.
Sofia Lamb: I haven't lost anything yet.
Ebony: Yes you have, but you refuse to see it because you're so butt blinded by your anger, rage, and hate that you can't see the forest through the trees so to speak. Face the facts Lamb, you've lost.
Sofia Lamb: Hmm, if I lost already are you going to be the one to finish me off with that gun by your left hip?
Ebony: Ha, you would think wouldn't you Sofia Lamb. Believe me when I say this Lamb, there's part of me that really wants to pull the gun from its hostel and shoot you dead. Just so I can see your brains and blood scattered across the ground, but I'm going to leave your wretched life and fate to the hands of Subject Delta and your daughter Eleanor. There'll decide whether or not if your life is worth living.
Sofia Lamb: So, if you're not here to kill me. Then why are you even here in the first place?!
Ebony: I thought that would be pretty obvious by now, but I guess someone like you who is enraged and hateful right now wouldn't understand. I've taking back all the things you took from Andrew Ryan's office things like codes, keys, books, and everything else and etc. Rapture is no longer under your control anymore.
Sofia Lamb: No! Those things and everything else are mine and mine alone.
Ebony: They weren't yours to begin with Lamb, I'm simple taking everything back that you stole from Andrew Ryan including the control key code for Rapture's control and everything else related to it.
Sofia Lamb: So you wish to be Rapture's next leader and take everything else for yourself?
Ebony: Not even close Lamb, good observation mind you but that doesn't even come close though. I'm just taking everything back and what belongs to Rapture now.
(The body guards returns and went behind Ebony and then leans down and whispers his words to Ebony's left ear. The body guard tells him that Subject Delta was beginning to wake up and that Eleanor Lamb is on her way to him even now. The body guard stops whispering into Ebony's left ear and stands back normally as Ebony waves him off to go and found the others waiting for them.)
Ebony: Well, it looks like it's my time to leave then. Hopefully this will be the last time we ever see each other again and I hope for your sake that you never come back to Rapture again.
Sofia Lamb: And if I do return anyway?
Ebony: Then I'll personally will hunt you down and kill you myself. That I promise on my life.
(Ebony stands to get up but stops to look down on Sofia Lamb one last time.)
Ebony: Oh before I forget, I'll allow you to have full control of Persephone and whatever is left of your family like cult down here, but that's all the control you're going to get from I and Rapture.
Sofia Lamb: I'm guessing there's a point to all this?
Ebony: Yes there is actually, I'm leaving control of Persephone to you for one reason only. Because I want to see what your final moments down here will be like.
Sofia Lamb: Damn you to hell, Ebony!
Ebony: Hmm, curse and shout out to me all you want Lamb because at the end of the fucking day you've lost and brought this misery and loss upon yourself. Don't blame me for your actions and words Sofia Lamb, blame no one but yourself.
(The body guard returns and then punches Sofia Lamb on the left side of her face and both Ebony and body guard watch as Sofia lands on the ground hard and see her not moving but breathing steadily and normal as she lay on the ground unconsciously. The body guard goes to her and leans down and starts to untie the rope around Lamb's arms and legs before standing back up and dropping the used rope onto the ground as the body guard walks back towards Ebony and stops in front the of the doctor to see and face him.)
Body Guard: We should get moving Ebony, both Delta and Eleanor will be here sometime soon and not to mention Lamb's Rapture Family cult members are on there way here as we speak.
Ebony: Right, did you and everyone else get what we came here for including the control key code for Rapture?
Body Guard: Yes we did, Ebony.
Ebony: Then let's get the hell out of here.
(Ebony and the body guard began to walk away from Sofia Lamb and headed for their escape route. As Ebony walked on he turned his head right and looked over his shoulder back towards where Sofia Lamb was laying unconsciously and breathing normally.)
Ebony: Sofia Lamb you once said that Rapture came to you and that she needed your help and ideals, but in fact it's the other way around. You Sofia Lamb came to Rapture all on your own free will for your own greed and twisted ways. And now look where it has gotten you now. Because the way I see it now. Rapture never really wanted you here to begin with anyway.
(Ebony turned his head back around and kept on walking with the body guard by his side and his pet mechanical dragon Song sitting soundly on his left shoulder.)
