Medical Big brother:
Rapture, minerva's den:
Groaning Sophie opened her eyes, uhhhh that plasmid hurt.
Looking around she got up, then it hit her.
Aaron is missing..what to do?
Her brain was scrambling a mile a minute trying to think where her little brother could have gone to?
Then she remembered something, her grandfather once told her that the little sisters hid in these vents, which they called hidey holes till a Big daddy came to escort them.
Little brothers are like little sisters only male, they probably hide in the same place.
Looking around a bit Sophie found a vent, it was bronze with leaf designs, had a hole and a step bellow.
Walking up to it Sophie banged on it a bunch of times.
It was a good 23 minutes later when she heard something.
A pair of glowing yellow eyes came closer from the darkness within the hidey hole before a head came out, it was Aaron, he smirked at Sophie.
Crossing her arms Sophie asked/demanded
"You knew it was going to hurt, didn't you?", Aaron kept smirking as he slowly came down from the hidey hole, then he reached back up to get his harvester which he set on the edge of the hole.
Rolling her eyes Sophie said
"Lets go before-"
"BOOM!" there was an explosion that rocked the building.
Debris fell from the roof of the floor Sophie was in,
"Before that happens" finished Sophie.
No sooner Aaron ran for it,
"NO WAIT STOP!" yelled Sophie as she chased after the little brother.
Going up a few stairs and through a corridor Sophie found out why Aaron ran, and who did the explosion.
"Mathew" she heard Aaron said hugging the knee's of a Big brother.
This big brother wore a suit or armor similar to the Big sisters, but there were a few differences.
His gauntlets were painted white; there were Red Cross symbols like those the ambulance have, they were welded on the armor of his shoulders and on his helmet which is round like Sophie's, but the hole which he was using to see was large, almost like a window.
"Is he yours?" asked the Big brother… possibly named Mathew,
"Yes, his name is Aaron, my name is-",
"Sophie I know, Alex said you'd be coming this way, names Mather by the way" said Mathew interrupting Sophie,
"Nice to meet you, but how does Alex know that?" asked Sophie confused,
"Trust me, there is little Alex knows" said Mathew.
There was a moment of silence then
"Mathew…what are you? I know you're a big brother but" asked Sophie,
"I get it, I am a Medical Big brother, let's just say my comrades and I are the doctors and nurses of Rapture" said Mathew,
"Oh okay" said Sophie, it explains why he had crosses in his armor.
Then…there was a ring, Mathew and Sophie were shocked as they looked at where the ring was coming from, it came from a phone attached to the wall.
It rang,
"Come on…lets go, before that sound attracts anything" said Mathew as he began to walk away, taking Aarons hand Sophie followed.
The ring stopped on that phone, but every time they passed through a phone it began to ring.
It was very clear that somebody or something was trying to reach them.
Sighting Sophie took the phone to answer it; even when she never pay any attention to her families stories, but she was sure splicers were too stupid to know how to use phones.
"Hello?" said Sophie answering the phone.
A female voice came it; it cracked a bit because she was crying
"Hello….."Sniff sniff"...Can you please help my husband?" she said,
"Who is it Sophie?" asked Mathew,
"I don't know, it's a woman, she is asking help for her husband" said Sophie then asked to the woman
"What's your name?",
"Sniff sniff…Pearl, Pearl Porter" said the woman,
"Okay Pearl, that's a pretty name" said Sophie; she wanted to calm Pearl down first and that usually does the trick,
"Thank you" said Pearl,
"Tell me what happened" said Sophie,
"My husband….Charles Milton Porter, we both were captures by these men wearing camouflage, then they turned my husband into what the big brothers call a Big daddy" said Pearl,
"Okay" said Sophie,
"Can you please save him, I will make it worth your while" said Pearl,
"Yes...But you got to talk to Mathew, he can probably do something about it, here I'll pass you to him" said Sophie before giving the phone to Mathew
"Her name is Pearl, she needs our help to save her husband", taking it Mathew talked to Pearl for sometime before hanging up.
"Is it possible to turn a Big daddy back into a regular person?" asked Sophie,
"Of course it is, but I need help from Gear, he is the head of the gadget big brothers" said Mathew,
"Okay, where do we find him?" asked Sophie,
"The last time I saw him he was going to Hephaestus to try and restore the power to Rapture" said Mathew.
"Okay then let's go there" said Sophie,
"You mean you…I got to stay here, I already have a mission, but don't worry, Pearl promised to keep an eye on you and help you in whatever she can" said Mathew,
"How will we keep contact?" asked Sophie,
"Your helmet has a radio on it, here give it to me for a sec" said Mathew.
Sophie took her helmet off and gave it to Mathew, he tinkered on the inside for a minute or so before giving it back to Sophie.
"I'll be taking Aaron, you need your full attention to find Gear, he is a master when it comes to traps and homemade defenses" said Mathew as Sophie put on her helmet.
"Can I trust you?" asked Sophie,
"You should, were your only hope to survive Rapture" said Mathew before he took Aaron and began to make his way further into Minerva's den.
Sophie's radio came to life,
"Excuse me...Can you hear me?" asked Pear through the radio,
"Yes I can hear you loud and clear" said Sophie,
"Okay, go down into the basement, there should be a bathyingsphere there that could take you to Hephaestus" said Pearl,
Sophie nodded as she went to find that Bathyingsphere usuing Pearls directions.
On the way she saw a blinking light, it was probably a bad idea but Sophie went to check it out, the closer she got she realized it was an audio diary.
"Hummm" said Sophie taking it, she knew back then people left messages and information using this, should she hear the message or not?.
After a small debate Sophie decided to play the message but not there… it was too dangerous.
Taking it Sophie found the bathyinsphere and read the choices listed on a lever, finding Hephaestus Sophie pulled the lever till it was there.
The door closed and the bathyingsphere sunk and made its course to Hephaestus, sitting down Sophie took the audio diary and pressed the play button:
"Soldier Frank Peterson here… I have been in this place called 'Rapture' for days,
studying what the little kids here call 'Big brothers and Sisters'. At first I thought
they were all the same, but they're not. All of them have different armor and
different task around here. For now I managed to identify one which I dub Medical
Medical Big siblings are known to be the doctors, pediatrics and
nurses of Rapture, very gifted in the medical field and such they can heal most
injuries that are though impossible. With the use of scout plasmid and Telekinesis,
they are patient, loving and caring of other, because of that they are very popular
among the little sister ranks…I will say more when I know more about them."
"Okay, so that is what Mathew is" said Sophie as she placed the audio diary down next to her as she watched the buildings go by.
To be continued…
