Worried:

Rapture, the thinker core:

The groups of Little brothers and sister have settled down for bed.

Taking a blanket the Big siblings provided they each found a spot in the room and fell a sleep in that spot.

It was kinda funny when one of the little brothers tried to sleep upside-down like a bat would.

Laying her head against the wall Sophie didn't feel like sleeping…in fact she doubts she will ever sleep with all of the horrors she encountered, plus knowing that her brother could be in danger somewhere in Rapture.

What if Nero got him and is experimenting him or something? The though about it just made Sophie more worried.

Sighting…she remembered back in Hepeastus, her brother communicated with her through her mind.

Did they have the same connection their uncle and father had? They had to, their twins after all.

There were many questions on Sophies head, spinning around like snowflakes on those souvenir snow globe her parents bought when they went on their honeymoon to Hawaii.

"Something is wrong Sophie?" she heard, looking she saw Mathew,

"Hey Mathew…I was just thinking about something….you really wouldn't know" said Sophie,

Sitting next to her Mathew said "Try me, who knows maybe I can help".

Sighting yet again Sophie explained her situation to Mathew from start to finish, to when she and her brother got into kindergarden together to when she went to Rapture to find him.

"Jacob stayed here because of me, he probably though that my family didn't love him cause most of the time their attention was on me, now-" Sophie's voice cracked as she tried not to cry "Now I think he is probably hurt somewhere in Rapture, maybe in trouble or Nero got him and experimented on him", Mathew listened then he began to laugh.

"What is soo funny?" demanded Sophie getting angry that somebody would laugh at another persons pain.

"At your reaction, come on I know Jacob and he would never let anything bad happen" said Mathew,

"You know him?" asked Sophie perking up,

"DUH! Everybody knows him, he is the best Big brother that has and will ever exist" said Mathew "If it wasn't for him we would all be under Tyrants control",

"Tyrant?" asked Sophie confused,

"Tyrant was an old Big daddy leader, he was really nasty and mean, bad temper, he even took out his anger on the little ones when they didn't do things his way" said Mathew,

"That is horrible" said Sophie,

"Many had tried to defeat Tyrant, none succeded, that was till Jacob came along and challenged him and bam! He defeated the evil dude without even breaking a sweat, but that is not all Jacob also saved us from this evil scientist named Gilbert Alexander, if he hadn't fought that guy we would all have been dead cause he was using us to power this new body he had, but Jacob made sure to turned him into dust" said Mathew,

Sophie stared shocked, she would have never imagen how brave and strong her brother was.

Back then he was bullied a lot, but like everything looks were deceiving and Jacob was no exception.

Guessing her silence was due to her amazement Mathew said

"All of the little brothers want to be like him, they even try to follow his example in any then Andrew Ryan said there were Heroes and Criminals, he was wright in something, if you want to see a perfect example of a hero, look at your brother".

There was a moment of silence between then before Sophie asked

"Is Jacob…okay?",

"Okay? The enemy should be worried about if their going to be okay when Jacob is around, they have been trying to get rid of him since day one" said Mathew then noticing Sophie was worried he added

"Nothing bad will happen to Jacob, he won't let it happen and we won't let it happen, I promise you that, now, try an get some sleep, your life can depend on it".

With that Mathew got up and left.

Looking outside seeing the lights of the city Sophie thought

"Jacob if saving Rapture is what you want, then I will help and support you in any way I can".

With that Sophie closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning:

Sophie woke up when she heard a clank, it was loud and painful.

Bringing her hands to her head she realized she fell asleep with her helmet on,

"See I told you she would wake up" she heard once the noise died down.

Looking she saw the culprits were a little brother and sister.

The brother had white dressing shirt like the other lil brothers, kinda stained, over it was a vest color brown, his blond hair was covered by one of those tam hats.

Probably stole it from one of the soldiers or something.

The little sister had a blue dress with a green polka dot pattern, her hair is blond like the boy, her hair was done on a pony tail with a green bow on the top of her head.

"Sorry about that miss, we have to wake you up somehow" the lil sister said, she spoke in a thick irish accent,

"Ya the ole group is meeting" said the boy with the same accent that the little sister had as they grabbed her arms and began to drag her to another room.

"My name is Atlas, my sister is Moira" said newly named Atlas,

"That may not be our real names but-" Began Moira,

"But everybody calls us like that and we expect you to call us like that too" said Atlas finishing Moiras sentence.

"Okay okay sheesh, no need to get crabby" said Sophie,

"Crab where?" they asked looking around for any sign of a crustacean walking around the room,

"Figure of speech" said Sophie deadpanned,

"Oh" said the pair before they took Sophie to the thinker, she saw Sigma, Gear, Mathew and Alex, they were all concered about something.

"Ahhh Sophie, glad to see that you are here…we got another mission for you" said Mathew,

"What is it?" asked Sophie,

"Two of our brothers….Radar and Dasher have been missing for sometime" said Gear,

"A few days ago we sent them to get some supplies from a local spot in Dyanisis park, but the last of what we heard from them was a transmission from Siren ally, Thinker can you please play the recording of the last transmission..if you have it" said Alex,

"of course" said The thinker.

There was static as the recording began to play.

" "Static" huff huff…..we made it to Paupers drop"

"…huff huff..Brother give me a sec…need to catch my breath"

"A few miles back we faced a large group of soldier…we don't know what their planning…but they seem to be acting more and more like splicers each day that pases"

"Groan"

"What was that?...what is that?"

"WATCH OUT!" "BOOOOM"

The recording ended,

"We don't know what that is…but for those two to get scared it has to be something bad, Sophie can you please go over there and investigate?" said Alex,

"Like I got a choice" said Sophie,

"Okay..let me get you something that might help" said Gear as he left.

When he came back he had something that looked like a plasmid…but wasn't and one of those sphere cages the Big sisters and some Big brothers have.

"This is a Tonic, its Hurried hacker, hope it helps in some way" said Gear giving it to her, before putting the sphere cage on Sophie's back,

"I assign Moira and Atlas to guide you to Paupers drop, once there radio us in and tell us how is the place, we'll be there in a secn to lend you a hand" said Alex.

"Thanks" said Sophie deciding to reserve all questions for later.

Going outside Atlast and Moira were waiting,

Taking Moira Sophie put her on the sphere cage then she took Atlas hand and they both went downstairs to where the bathyinsphere was being kept before entering it and leaving Minerva.

Atlantic express:

"Come on Big sister, it's a short cut" said Atlas as he practically dragged Sophie around.

Like most of the little siblings Sophie noticed Atlas was very energetic…and impatient.

There was a moan,

"Big daddy is coming to play" chirped Moira happy,

"Lets not get our hopes up" said Atlas as he got on all fours and slowly crawled, Sophie followed his example.

Peeking through the doorway they noticed this Big daddy was a Rosie, he wasn't alone either, he was escorting a little brother…but there was something weird about this one, his eyes were wrong..they were a shade of pinkish red, like fresh harvested adam.

"I don't like brother" said Atlas as he back away slowly and fearfully.

Looking at Atlas Sophie decided to do something stupid.

She took Moira off of her back and set her down,

"Stay here….if you see a splicer, soldier, anything yell" Sophie instructed before walking over to the walking pair.

"Hello" said Sophie..the little brother on the other hand greeted her by trying to stab her with his harvester.

Sophie was quick and dodged it,

"Angel stay still! HERO!" the little brother yelled angrily as he ran back to the Rosie.

There were sparks of electricity, the Big daddy roared angrily

"THE PAIN!", Sophie stared shocked…did that Big daddy just talked?

He began to trash around angrily, blinded by pain.

Sophie blasted him with electro-volt and stabbed him with the harvester.

Once his movements got slower Sophie stabbed the collar, breaking it.

The pain stopped and the Big daddy fell back…exhausted.

"HERO!" yelled the little brother before turning his full anger on Sophie.

Taking a leap in faith Sophie quickly grabbed the little brother took his harvester and threw it away.

The little brother squirmed, kicked and tried to bite Sophie, but the armor protected her from harm.

"So…what to do with both of you?" though Sophie as she looked at the Big daddy who was exhausted on the floor then back at the squirming little brother.
