"The smell of evil is getting stronger!" Gnarl whispered beneath his box.

It had been almost 3 hours since Gnarl and Boil started following the Big Daddy that killed the Jester. They had long since left Paupers Drop and were now in an unfamiliar part of the city. For the most part this section of the city seemed to be a type of residential district for the middle class folk. Like much of the ruined city this part was completely dark, save for the light shining from the Big Daddy's numerous portholes as he made his way down the hallway of apartments. Gnarl looked around the hall from the cracks in his box, his glowing yellow eyes allowing him a sort of night vision. The hall was surprisingly devoid of the dead splicers which filled so many of Rapture's halls, and the hall it self was in a better condition than most others, as if someone had been maintaining it.

The Big Daddy finally stopped before a huge barricade made of furniture, likely taken from the apartments in the hall. There seemed to be no way around the blockade, but the Big Daddy cautiously looked down the hall before moaning very loudly a few times. The Daddy stared at the barricade as if expecting something, yet for ten minutes nothing happened. Irritated, the Daddy moaned a few more times, louder than before, and he revved his drill.

"Geeze! I'm coming, I'm coming!" A voice, clearly female, shouted from the other side of the barrier

Suddenly the furniture began shifting and being pulled up and away from the pile by some invisible force. The smell of evil was becoming overwhelming now, and Gnarl had to hold down Boil who almost shot out from under their box to run up to the source of the evil stench. Furniture shifted and shoved, until it formed a sort of tunnel held up only by psychic energy. In the center of the tunnel's entrance stood a woman, looking to be in her early twenties or late teens. She wore a rather, tightly fitting Big Sister suit, though it was slightly modified to better fit its now older host. The women herself, had intense eyes that shined a bright yellow, like the little sister that stood next to the Big Daddy before her. However unlike the Sister, the woman's face was pitch black, much like that of the various Overlords. Her hair, which was just slightly darker than the darkness that surrounded her, hung down to her waist.

"Big Sister! Big Sister! I saw a fairy today!" The Little Sister said gleefully, bouncing up and down

The woman bent down to be level with the small girl "Really? Did you invite the fairy for tea?" she asked

"No…Daddy unzipped him because he tried to get me…" disappointment rode on her voice

"Well, that's ok. Go on in the other girls are waiting." She smiled down at the Little Sister, her bright white, jagged teeth were a deep contrast with her pitch black skin.

The little girl beamed a smile to the Big Sister before skipping off down the tunnel of furniture, disappearing in the darkness after a few seconds. The woman waited for the girl to be out of sight before she dropped her smile and turned toward the Big Daddy, who was waiting patiently to be addressed. The woman smiled again, rushing forward and hugging the goliath of metal and flesh.

"Welcome home Daddy." She cooed

The Big Daddy simply moaned in response before trying to gently push the woman down the tunnel to where the sister had disappeared.

"Sorry, Daddy, but I want to stay out here just a bit longer." She said, the smile vanishing from her face. "You should go in before the girls start to worry."

The Daddy just stood there, staring at her for a moment before groaning and walked around her. The Big Sister's gaze followed the metal beast as he stalked down the tunnel. Once the Daddy was out of sight, the woman spun on her heels to face the "empty" hallway.

"Come on out! I know your there!" she demanded

Gnarl chuckled as he tossed away the box he had been hiding under "Found us out so quick! As expected of the Overlord, or should I say Overlady?"

"Your one of the fairies the girls have been talking about. What are you doing here, and what are you talking about?" She eyed him suspiciously, her eyes turning from intense yellow to a deep, suspicious orange.

Smiling evilly Gnarl said "I assure you my lady, we are not fairies. We came to find the Overlord! Master of Evil! Ruler of Nations! Tormenter of Good! Commander of-"

"Alright, alright, I get it!" she yelled, her eyes turning to a shade of red-orange "Damn, splicers keep getting crazier and crazier, and now look at this! They shrunk down into ugly little imps."

"We are not splicers, milady. We are minions, loyal servants to the Overlord, or in your case, Overlady." Gnarl replied

She narrowed her eyes, glaring at the old minion "Oh yeah? Well then prove it! Show me some evidence of this Overlady business. And if you can't prove it to me, I'm going to paint the walls a new shade for red, using your blood."

Gnarl snickered before pulling an ominous looking gauntlet from beneath his robes. The gem imbedded in it shone with a dim light that glowed a threatening red.

"This milady is the Gauntlet of Minions. It is the item with which allows you to summon and control minions at will. It has been past down from Overlord to Overlord since its forging in the fires of mount-" Gnarl was cut short, as she grabbed him by the throat and lifted him off the ground.

"Spare me the history lesson! What's it got to do with me?" She demanded

"Heh, I'd expect no less from the Overlor-I mean Overlady. I'm sure you can feel the gauntlet calling to you. Put it on and taken in the power of EVIL!"

Though she would never say it, the old minion was right. She could fell her self being drawn to the gauntlet; fell the power resonating from it. Dropping Gnarl, she snatched up the gauntlet from his wrinkly claws. She inspected it thoroughly; it seemed to be normal hunk of metal, except for the strange inscriptions on it and the even stranger glowing gem imbedded on the back of the hand. Shrugging it off, she slid her right hand into the gauntlet and immediately felt immense power surge through her body. The area around her became illuminated in a red aura emitted by her and the gauntlet, but as just as quickly as it started, it stopped leaving her bewildered, but more so, angry.

'Well that was a load of shit' she mumbled in her mind

Snatching Gnarl up by the throat once more, she shook him in front of her. "Is that it? That was a load of crap."

"You are now the Overlady, milady. Hold your arm up and concentrate on calling forth other minions like me." Gnarl answered

Giving him wicked glare; she tossed Gnarl aside and held up her right arm. Suddenly a loud horn like sound came out of nowhere and echoed down the hall. She immediately dropped her hand and snatched up Gnarl again, slamming him against the wall.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?" She shouted "THAT HORN NOISE THING? THAT THING WAS SO LOUD ALL THE SPLICERS IN RAPTURE MUST HAVE HEARD IT!"

"Now, now, milady. Lets not over exaggerate. That noise, just now is the summoning call of minions. Yourself and the minions are the only ones who can hear it. The summoning blast will bring all the minions in the area running to this location."

"BULLSHIT! You think I'm going to believe that?" She opened her mouth to say more, but the sound something sharp scratching against the hard tile floor cut her off. The sound became louder and louder as its source came closer and closer. Her eyes flashed a panicked yellowish-green, as her vision flickered between the tunnel and the darkness of the hall where the scratching sound was growing louder. She quickly lifted her left hand towards the tunnel of furniture and dropped her hand down; causing the tunnel to collapse back into the massive barricade it was prior.

Turning back to the dark hallway, she tightened her grip on Gnarls neck and readied the large syringe on her left arm. Taking a battle stance, preparing to fight whatever came running out of the darkness.

The source of the sound was upon her now and out of the darkness came fifty brown minions. They stopped just short of being incinerated by a ball of fire the Big Sister shot from the palm of her left hand. Their glowing yellow eyes stared up at her before they promptly dropped to their knees and bowed low before her.

"ALL HAIL THE OVERLADY!" They shouted in unison.

"You've got to be shitting me…"

AC: I'm sorry for the wait and for my rather rushed level of writing, but like I said in the first chapter. I have no idea where I'm going with this so whatever. Thanks for the favs! The follows! And the Reviews!
