Of Fucking course... water.

I had a fear of water, I never knew exactly why I did, but I always heard that you can drown just in a teaspoon of water. And me drowning nearly twice didn't improve on my fear. And now here I was in a city surrounded by it! Not like by the coastline, but actually under the water!

I was in the same place that Elizabeth had drowned the Songbird. A big mechanical weapon of destruction that looked like, you guessed it, a bird. But it was bipedal, had three sharp claws that acted as brass knuckles for the thing. And he was massive, about two stories high, wide as a car from fingertip to fingertip.

And he could fly.

I have no idea how something that size could move, then again I was in a flying city for crying out loud. So I've grown used to the impossible in my life. Thankfully the twins where smart of me to bring me where no one was at. I was in a place called Neptune's Bounty.

This place wasn't like that setting that me and Elizabeth took up to the sea of doors, and it's also the last place we got into a... standstill. What I mean when I say that is I was too afraid to get in a small air bubble like vehicle that took us up to the surface. Elizabeth convinced me to enter the shuttle by staring a little 'session' as she called it.

And god help me I fallowed her in with the intent on slamming my lips onto hers but instead I gripped on the plush seats for dear life. I felt my heart ache a little at the memory, I loved Elizabeth, and she was somewhere in this entire city and I had no idea where to begin.

Ok, find Comstock, find Elizabeth. Simple.

Walking out from the alley, I saw that this place was busy. Workmen hauled large supplies of fish onto small submarine like things, enough to carry a few people actually. Walking along the boardwalk, I thought of where to start, Comstock was a religious man so maybe a church?

So get out of the docks and into the city I guess. Which I still don't know the name too. I could have asked one of the men where I could go to find a church but they didn't look like they where the type of people who stopped to talk at the cost if their work.

Passing a few men I looked outside the windows and saw the city lights, god if I wasn't so set on getting this over with I might actually stay and enjoy the view. I felt the ground tremble under my feet, I looked ahead of me in compete and utter shock.

I've seen some messed up shit but this?

I've said it once, and I'll say it again. "What the fuck is that?" The thing looked like a old age diving suit, but MUCH bigger. And it had a big goddam drill for one hand, it was big enough to shake the ground when it took a step, and he was coming right for me.

I felt a hand in my arm as I was pulled out of the way of the hulking beast and onto the boardwalk, as the thing walked away the man who pulled me looked at me like I was a idiot, "The fucks wrong with you kid! You got a death wish?" he asked.

I gave him a sneer of sorts but stopped, the guy probably saved me from a broken bone or two. Like my mom said, be treated like you want to be... even if it doesn't always work. "Sorry, I didn't know the big robot thing was blind." I said. The man actually smirked and held a hand out to me, "Yeah. They might be big but those big daddies are slower than a old bitch."

I clasped his hand as he helped me up, "Sorry 'bout that kid. Been a long day, names Peach, Peach Wilkins." he said shaking my hand, "(Y/N) (L/N). Nice to met ya." I said giving him a firm shake.

"Heh, so your new here kid?" he asked as we walked along the docks, "That obvious?" I asked warily, I was hoping I could fit in here better than I could in Columbia, "Yep, you still got manners. So how long you've been here in Rapture?" he asked with a smirk.
