(Hey guys..! Sorry for this one being a tad late! But at least I'm back with another chapter..! Anyways, let's get right into it since no one likes hearin' mah ramblin'!)

He did not enjoy this. Not one bit. Especially with Serana's constant molesting of his chest. He didn't want to hurt her, so he carried her Bridal Style. He was regretting it, to say the least. Why can't she refrain from the touching..? Not that he.

"Big Bro..! I smell Angels! This way!" Victoria skipped ahead, snapping him clean out of his thoughts.

"Wha-Hey, Vikkie! Slow down, I don't wanna run into a Big Daddy or somethin'!" He followed behind her, not that he had another choice in the matter. He felt like a Big Daddy at this rate. Except much more lean and a lot less armored. As well as skinnier, he assumed. They had to fit in the suit somehow, but. He never understood it.

Serana, well, she was pretty content with this. She enjoyed the weightless feeling... But she also realized both of them couldn't fight much, all things considered. She wished her wounds would've healed by now. "...You shouldn't worry so much over her."

He glanced at Serana. "I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that. I feel both defenseless and overwhelmed in a way. I have every right to worry, especially considering she's a walking ADAM Bomb." He stifled a laugh at his own joke.

Serana felt it, since her hand was on his chest. She kind of wished he did laugh... It would've made her feel a bit better. Maybe if she laughed, he would. She'll have to get him to say something funny, though. "...What's an ADAM Bomb?"

He cleared his throat, keeping his laugh down. "It's, a joke. I mean she has so much ADAM that she's basically a walking bomb." Serana smiled under her helmet. "A walking bomb..? So, she explodes?"

He laughed quietly, unable to contain himself. "No, no not like that kind of bomb..! I mean that she attracts so much attention that it's a clusterfuck just waiting to happen. N-Not that kind of way, I swear I didn't mean it like that..!"

Serana laughed. She was glad he had laughed, somewhat. But him trying to mend his mistake was just too funny for her. "Are you sure you didn't mean it the other way..?"

He inhaled deeply in a joking manner, hearing her laugh. He really enjoyed her laugh. It was, perfect in a way. He didn't understand why, though. "I'm positive I meant it non-pervertedly..! Unlike most people here!"

Serana nodded slowly, resisting a laugh. "Mmhmm, suuure Mister Keep-Me-In-My-Underwear..." He choked on air. "H-Hey, that was..! That was your own doing-you could've gotten dressed yourself!"

Victoria listened to Sister and Brother 'Argue'. They seemed more like they were playing rather than arguing. She liked hearing them laugh, though. Some of what they said she didn't understand, though. But not her business. She was glad the Bad Men weren't around yet.

Victoria followed her nose to the scent, finding an Angel. "Big Bro, Big Sis! I found an Angel! Get ready, though..! The Bad Men might be here!" She giggled, taking her needle out.

He raised an eyebrow. How did..? Well, he guessed that she's done that before, but how would the Splicers know? More importantly, why care? He supposed they attracted a lot of attention, but still. "Oh, okay-"

"LITTLE FISH..! FINALLY FOUND YA!" a Splicer announced, completely wasting his element of surprise. Dumbass. "Hand ova' th' girl, an' I wont hurt ya an' your girlfriend there..!" Serana opened her mouth to retort something back, before John beat her to it.

"Hey, now..! Like I'd manage to score with a Big Sister. Hah..! You flatter me, sir. No way in hell I could ever hope to."

Serana's eyes twinkled under her helmet. The only thing she was called was a monster. But, but he's saying she's, something else entirely... She felt something. Odd. In her chest, like. Her heartbeat quickened. She craved the warmth more, now.

"As for the girl, well. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to hurt you for that comment. Because the girl stays with me." He set Serana down, drawing his pistol and firing a shot at him.

The Splicer disappeared in a puff of red. Great, Houdini Splicer. He should've known.

The Splicer re-appeared beside him, punching John square in the face. "I warned ya-augh..!" He felt something sharp stab into him, realizing it was a needle. Draining his. No..! His precious ADAM!

Serana drained him dry, the Splicer going limp, falling off her needle. John wiped the blood from his nose, sighing a bit. "...Bastard nearly busted mah schnozz. God, that hurt."

Serana turned a knob on her needle, the ADAM absorbing into her. She felt her wounds heal more... She loved the feeling. But not as much as the warmth. Nothing could compare to it. She took a wobbly step towards John, wiping some blood away from his face with her thumb.

John was confused by her gesture, but let her. "Uh, Serana. It's just some blood, I'm fine." Serana shook her head, taking her helmet off. She had the biggest smile on her face. "No, you're not... Bleeding isn't fine. But I-"

"I finished..!" Victoria yanked the needle out, giggling happily. "That was fun..!" She then saw the look in Serana's eyes. The way she was looking at Big Bro... "Big Bro, Big Sis loves you!"

He laughed slightly, completely oblivious to Serana's look. "Alright, Vikkie. Calm down a bit... Kids and their fantasies, am I right? Serana? Please say I'm right." Serana swallowed a bit. "...Vikkie's right."

(I'm gonna end the chapter here..! Cliffhangerrr! Sorry, but the chapter's getting pretty long again! Anyways, see you guys in the next one!)
