Sanctuary, Home.
As the girls entered the secret sewer entrance Jack took a look around the area, Making sure no splicers were following them.
"All clear," Jack thought to himself before turning the valve and closing the secret entrance.
Making his way toward the sanctuary's door the five girls had already left for their friends, Toys, Or bed, It was already late and the girls would be tired from the fight.
As jack stood on the first floor of the sanctuary he couldn't help but think how depressing the place looked.
Sure Tenenbaum had tried her best to make the place house as many girls as possible, And they painted the walls and floors with crayons, He still found the place quite depressing.
As was lost in thought a girl, One that was not one of the five that saved him came running up to him and jumped up to him, Hugging his neck tightly.
"Thank you for saving me mister," She said with a small tear in her eyes as she lowered herself off of him.
"No problem sweetie, Happy to do it, " Jack replied petting the girls hair.
"Mama Tenenbaum found out my name, It was engraved in my locked, Want to know my name mister? Please," The girl asked happily, She had a right to be happy since most girls could not remember their own name do to Adam's mind control over them.
"Sure thing, I would love to" Jack replied kneeling down to look at the locket.
"Marsha Lutz" The girl said happily, Jacks smile immediately faded.
Lutz, He found a deceased couple in a room in the fighting McDonagh.
'What's wrong mister?" Marsha looked with a curious look on her face?
"Nothing sweetie, I just wished more girls knew their name" Jack replied.
"Me too, Maybe later they will" Marsha said happily.
"I'm going downstairs to bed, How about you mister?" Marsha asked.
"I'll come too" Jack replied to the girl.
"See race you there" Marsha said sprinting off the stairs.
As Jack looked at the girls running, He wiped away a small tear.
"She made it Mr and Mrs Lutz, She is safe now" He silently whispered.
After that Jack took a deep breath and walked down the stairs.
( Bottom floor)
As Jack descended the stairs to the ground floor of the sanctuary, Most girls were already in their pyjama's, Although almost all the girls still sat and talked with each other.
They all stopped however when they noticed Jack and looked at him with big excited eyes.
"Your back," One of the girls said happily, Waving at him from atop her bunkbed.
Tenenbaum, Who was in the medical room, Came to take a look at what all the commotion was about, She knew that Jack being back meant something went horribly wrong.
"Herr Ryan, What happened, Why are you and the girls back here?" She asked while making her way over to him.
"Ms Tenenbaum," Jack started, "Ms Tenenbaum was my mother, You can call me Bridget" She replied.
"Bridget then, We defeated Fontaine and made our way to the submarine," Jack said, "But Fontaine had it boobytrapped, It exploded before we could make our way onto it, I'm sorry" Jack replied a bit saddened.
"My god," Bridget said with a shocked tone in her voice.
"That submarine was, To my knowledge, The only possible way out of rapture," Bridgit replied clearly feeling saddened by the whole situation.
She proceeded to step back and sit down in a chair, Her right hand covering her face as to not show the girls she was crying, Two girls walked over to her to hug and hold her hand.
As Bridget took a minute to take in the situation, Jack looked around the place.
All the girls have heard their conversation, Some where crying, Some where just looking sad, And some were confused, What would they do now?
Jack pushed a small crate over and stepped on top of it.
"Listen everyone, I know things look bad now, But we cannot lose hope," Jack spoke loudly.
"Me and Bridgit will do everything we can to make sure we can ALL leave this place," While jack said that Bridgit slowly stood up and petted the girls on their head, "thank you girls," She said.
She then walked over till she stood next to Jack and replied "Mister Ryan is right, We will find a way out of here, All of us, It will take some time, But I promise you, We will make it" She said loud enough for all the girls to hear.
The expression on the faces of the girls changed from sad to hopeful and some even smiling.
"That's Right" Jack replied.
Bridgit took a look at her watch, "Ten pm already?" She said, "Alright girls, Now really is the time for bed," As she said that she got protest from the girls.
"But I'm not sleepy yet," Most of the exclaimed, "I want a story before I go to bed," Other said.
Jack gave a small whistle with his fingers which made all of them stop and look into his direction.
"I have a deal," He said, "I will tell you all one story, But after that its straight to bed" Jack exclaimed.
"Yay story!" Most of the girls yelled while grabbing different books from the shelves.
"Pick this one" About six girls said holding different books, The little mermaid, Red riding hood, And so on.
"This one" Jack said as he took a book one of the girls offered him.
"Alice in wonderland, The short version" The Book said, As the girls sat in a circle in front of him.
"Chapter 1, Down the rabbit hole" As jack began reading the first chapter, Bridget returned back to her room and closed the curtains.
After about twenty minutes Jack finished the chapter and most of the girls looked pretty tired.
"Alright girls, Time for bed" Jack said to the girls who then stood up and walked towards their bed to go to sleep, All except for one.
"But, Yawn, I'm not even tired yet" The girls said.
As Jack put the book away the noticed it was Marsha still sitting down not 'tired' at all.
"Alright, Time for you as well Marsha, Come on," Jack said as he pulled the girls up.
"Oh alright, But only if you come say goodnight to Mister Teddy," Marsha replied.
"Alright, If that's what it takes" Jack replied as Marsha pulled his hand and walked toward her bed.
As Marsha eventually got into bed and under the curtains, She grabbed the bear and said, In a childish voice, "Goodnight Mister, Thank you for saving Marsha for me, I was worried," The bear 'said' as Marsha slightly giggled.
Jack looked at the bear and replied, "Your welcome Mister Teddy, Goodnight, And goodnight to you too Marsha," Jack said as.
As Jack finished talking to the bear, the girl gave him a small kiss on his forehead, "Thank you for everything mister, Goodnight," Marsha said with a smile, After that she put the bear next to her, Lay down, And went to sleep.
As jack walked passed the girls to check if all of them were sleeping, He heard saw Bridgit waving at him from the entrance of her room.
As Jack walked over to her door she said, "I was hoping now that the girls are asleep you and I can talk about how we are going to get out of here," She said looking at the girls peacefully sleeping.
"Sounds good, I'll let myself in, Then we can discusse the plan," Jack said looking at Bridgit.
As Bridget stepped aside, Jack walked into the room.
Tonight they would talk about the past, The future for him and the girls, And most importantly, Of how to make it out of Rapture.
Fin.
