[Thread] Welcome to Rapt--Econtra
Characters: AU!Atlas, OPEN
Where: the park
When: afternoon/evening
Summary: Atlas has just arrived.
Warnings: Opening gruesome/blood scene. :P
Atlas ran from the room as fast as his desperate legs could carry him. What he left behind was total chaos: a Big Daddy protecting his Little Sister from two Spider Splicers, a swarm of flying defense bots pelting the living with bullets, and one super crazed Leather Splicer spraying machine gun rounds at everything that moved. Atlas sped around a corner and stopped running to catch his breath. He slumped against the wall for support and gazed down at his beaten and bruised body. He plucked a stray bullet from his abdomen and winced as he threw it away. He closed his eyes in rest for only a moment.
Searing pain spiked through his abdomen. He heard a faint scream, desperate and full of pain. It took him a moment to realize the sound was coming from him. At first he thought maybe the bullet had actually pierced his thick skin and he was only now feeling the pain. Then his eyes snapped open and he immediately knew he was wrong. There in front of him stood one of the most dreaded monsters of Rapture: a Bouncer.
Atlas looked down and instantly wished he hadn't. The large bit-drill attached to the monster's arm was tearing through his stomach. Atlas couldn't even fill the pain anymore; he just stared dumbfoundedly at the large, bloody hole opening up in his abdomen. He screamed against, this time more out of lost hope than anything else.
And then he woke up. The scream, having turned real in his unconscious desperate attempt to escape the nightmare, faded quickly into the sunlit park. Atlas sat up hurriedly, wiping sweat from his brow with a shaky hand. He quickly composed himself with a deep breath then cast a glance around.
He wondered if anyone had heard that. He decided he didn't doubt it for a second.
