CHAPTER 6

Are they gone? Austin stared down the flooded hallway that served as the entrance to Neptune's Bounty. The Big Daddy and Little Sister went down it over a half-an-hour earlier.

Gone or not, I need to go down there. Austin double checked his newly acquired shotgun. He took a deep breath then started down the hall.

The water was frigid and went up past Austin's ankles. To one side there were pieces of concrete blown off of the wall during the civil war. The other side was glass. Through it he saw the floating corpses of Rapture residents caught up and tangled in the seaweed. They were bloated and their skin gray. He did his best to ignore them. Still, it felt like they were watching him.

Austin hurried down the flooded hallway. The sound of dripping water made him nervous. At any time the glass wall could've shattered sending the endless tons of the Atlantic straight towards him. Though death didn't scare him dying before he destroyed the place that took his wide from him was a terrifying prospect.

Both of Austin's feet finally got out of the water and onto dry floor. His soaked shoes squeaked and squished. It wasn't an ideal situation but it would have to do.

Austin discovered a splicer's body on the floor net to a small fire. From the look of the poor bastard he'd been dead for less than a day. He could've died in any number of ways. That was until the engineer discovered a large hole in his neck. It was just like the ones cause by Little Sisters' oversized syringes. The duo from earlier were after ADAM, as per usual. Question was, why in Neptune's Bounty. For them to be that exposed was unusual.

Despite being inside Rapture, Neptune's Bounty looked any commercial docks above the waves. Where Austin entered, the Lower Wharf, the first thing he saw was Fontaine Fisheries. He was familiar with the place. Andy used to work there before the front for the city's biggest illegal smuggling operation collapsed.

I need to get this over with. The quicker the better. Austin looked out over Neptune's Bounty and tried to find the best and safest route. He saw the slotted wood floors and boxes of rotted fish that were never delivered. Even for someone so used to being around death, the smell almost made him throw up his beans.

Austin continued into the bowels of Fontaine's Fisheries. He knew the Rapture blueprints, almost by heart. He needed to. And he knew that there was a wall that bore an inordinate amount of water pressure. If blown up, he knew that all of Neptune's Bounty would be destroyed. That would be crucial to permanently ridding the world of ADAM, splicers and the other abominations that the city housed.

Being so close to the finish line hardened Austin's resolve and gifted his legs with some extra haste. After everything he'd been through since meeting Andrew Ryan in that Boston waterfront bar, he finally neared the end.

Austin entered the Fontaine Fishery warehouse floor.
