He dragged his feet across the puddles of water occasionally feeling a small stone or random object be crushed underneath his feet. He kept following the pitter patter of small bare feet running through the water. "Look big brother it's shiny!" The little sister yelled out in joy pointing up at a window that had a body hanging out of it covered in bullet holes and dry blood. She kept pointing at it as it was too high for her to reach what he saw was in the hand sparkling a bit. He groaned shifting his legs feeling the metal groan around his legs as he began walking over towards it and reaching up grabbing the arm. He pulled and it came off with ease having look rotten.
He looked at the hand to see it still gripping the shiny that his sister wanted. He started shaking the limb to make it let go while the sister stayed next to him watching while her harvesting needle was full. He groaned as the light changed red and he held it up before grabbing the fingers and breaking them as the snapped and the shiny object fell from it landing into the water at his feet. The sister walked over and picked it up as he tossed the rotten limb, she then smiled looking up at his yellow light holding up what the corpse was gripping in its hand.
"Look big brother! It's so pretty!" He moved leaning in as his light made it sparkle more as it was a small necklace covered in gems. They reflected his light covering the walls in blue and green lights that moved as the necklace moved slightly swinging. The little sister gasped at the lights and then moved closes. He could feel her doing something to his suit as her little hands moved around until she stood back smiling holding her hands out wide.
"Tada! Now big brother can be shiny!" He looked towards the glass to see his reflection as she stayed smiling hugging his leg. He saw that she had attached the chain around one of his air hoses and left it dangling around his chest. He reached up and poked it with his finger making it move before it rested in place as he felt a tug on his leg.
"Big brother I smell an angle!" She pointed off as he reached down and picked her up placing her onto his shoulder. As he started walking her hand reached out pointing in the directions for him to go. He kept following her directions as they wandered through halls and destroyed walls. Eventually the sister found what she as looking for as he saw a large corpse smashed into the wall covered in burns and bullets, the big daddy looked to have been killed recently as there were still fresh corpses around smashed and ripped apart as there was what looked like the remains of one that had been blown up.
"So many angels!" The sister yelled as she could smell so much ADAM in each one of the bodies. They must have been dead long enough for all the ADAM to rise in their blood and be able to harvest. As he put the sister down from his shoulder she started drinking from her harvester emptying some as she got a little of the red substance down her chin. She finished up and cleaned her face walking off to be a good sister and harvest each of the bodies. The brother followed near her and kept his drill on hand ready for when any splicer would be dumb enough to come and try killing her. He stayed standing over her just in case bullets started to fly or a hook was tossed.
The big brother looked around at the destruction of this room as some fires burned and bullet holes littered the place. The little sister started to harvest the ADAM as the body was stabbed until she found the ADAM. She then began to harvest as the needle began to fill up only a little bit until there was no more.
"This angle didn't have much ADAM brother. Oh well," She stood up onto her feet dusting her dirty and ripped dress as she walked over to the next and began harvesting from them all. The process continued over and over with only a little ADAM being obtained each time. When she had finally finished up collecting the ADAM there was a sound of something falling that made the big brother shine his light over showing a can slowly rolling. He pulled the drill from his side and grabbed his sister placing her on his back as his light change red, warning anyone to stay back.
He began walking towards the can as he looked around lighting up the dark areas searching for anyone. His light red in a hesitant anger as the thoughts of them touching his little one made the plasmid in his mind kick into overdrive as he saw more corpses watching for a twitch from one that he would stomp out. As he was looking around the sister on his back was staying close to his back like a good girl so that nothing would hit her while he looked around for her safety. As she was looking to the side scared she saw something in the dark of an old store that was broken and burned a long time ago. She squinted her eyes looking through the dark as she could see something inside until she saw a pair of yellow glowing eyes look back into her own widening as they suddenly disappeared. The sister gasped at what she saw and began patting her protector's helmet and made him look in the direction she was pointing shining his red light. He gave a growl as he began slowly walking over carrying his large bloodstained drill. The sister kept looking over his shoulder making sure to stay safe while trying to see if she could see what she saw before.
He stopped walking and looked through the window as the metal cage around it kept him out as junk blocked him from opening it. As he was looking around the whole store he had changed his light from red to yellow as he looked around now sensing no hostility towards his little one. But as he was looking his little one saw something again move behind a large rack hiding. She looked back as he started turning around and leaving. She saw the yellow eyes again and jumped off his back landing on the ground making a splash. She ran to the hop as he turned around with his light red as he groaned and went to catch her but was too late as she crawled through a hole in the broken fence. The Big Brother then began to smash his drill against the gate bending it in as he groaned worried about her safety. As he did the sister stood up inside the store as she held her harvester as the ADAM glowed bright letting her see around the room to see the place a beautiful marble color as books and chairs were scattered all over the place.
She looked back hearing her Big Brother's sounds of protest calling her back as he pushed against the metal gate bending it in more as his gold armor white suit was getting dirty. She then looked back as she heard shuffling nearby and saw feet go around a corner. She started slowly walking closer as she could hear crying. She kept walking as she held her harvester close to her chest as she took tiny steps closer as she passed around the corner and saw another sister crying as she hid alone by herself. She looked at the sister to see her dress was torn and had some roses on it while her leg had a nasty bruise. She tilted her head no longer feeling fear as she began slowly walking towards the other sister before looking down at her as she sat down curled up.
"Hey, what's wrong?" She asked her seeing that her hair was brown while she looked up at her showing her glowing eyes and grey skin just like her's. She looked up to show the tears that stained her face while looking into her's.
She then heard the protector groan out louder as he made the place shake s there was a loud crash from the front and she cried putting her head into her arms. As she did there was the sound of heavy feet stomping as the shelf hiding both of them was tossed out of the way and the red light was shined over both of them making the other sister scream as she expected the bed men to hurt her just like they tried to do.
"Big Brother!" The little one yelled out as she was picked up after the light changed yellow covering the frightened sister. As he was picking her up and placing her on his back she started patting his arm and pointing at the crying sister as he seemed to have frozen for a minute until finally moving forward and turning his light green. The Big Brother kept walking closer until he stopped and kneeled down on one leg groaning softly as it went slightly high as the sister was sniffling and looking up at him as he groaned again softly holding a hand out to her as she could smell the pheromones coming off of him that made her get up and run before hugging him barely getting her arms around his sides while he softly patted her back as she cried into his chest. Her tears soaked his chest as she kept crying for minutes as he remained still while his little one stayed on his back waiting.
"See big brother I told you something was there." She said before yawning as the other sister had cried herself to sleep making him carry her in his arm as he reached behind his back and pulled his little sister off and into his arm as she laid on his arm and got comfortable as the other one slept peacefully in his arm. He stood up and began slowly walking off taking them back to the orphanage while he didn't see the arm of a woman that was holding a locket. Inside the locket, as it was broken was a woman and a man that held a little girl smiling happily.
The locket was suddenly taken by a splicer that was wearing a rabbit masquerade mask while he had bandages wrapped all around his arms and legs while a Tommy gun was clenched tightly in his hand. His muttering was almost silent as he looked down at the locket as he heard the voices in his mind slowly taking over.
'You're so spliced up…'
He looked up as the metal daddy had disappeared and he looked back down at the photo as he dropped the gun and held his head. He wanted her to stop he did all this for her! It was all for them!
'You're so spliced up…'
"WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME!?" He yelled out as he grabbed the gun and began yelling like a maniac searching for more ADAM.
