I thought I would give this one more try, if no one responds, someone get rid of this thread ASAP!
The child ran through the dark corridors, she paid no attention to the body of her once dear friend lying in a pool of his own blood, but kept running. The hall shook and rattled with gunfire, the same that swallowed her parents hours ago. She heard the soft pitter patter of quick feet behind her. She didn't stop to look back though, but ran faster, the feet gained on her growing rapidly louder, she then had to look down at her side and saw her small terrier, Jackson running beside her. She bent down to pick him up, "J-Jackie!" She said and held him in the air, his face was cut right above his eye, but he still managed to make a panting grin on his face, she cried and held him close to her. "We're, all we got Jackie. Mom, Dad, Ben, are gone. We've gotta be extra careful, okay?" Jackie didn't respond, but kept panting. She slowly put the dog back on his feet, and then she immediately kept running.
"We've gotta go east Jackie, Mr. Fontaine is winning over there, and the people are happy. We'll live there like Mom and Dad always wanted too. Right Jackie?" The Dog barked at something behind them, she turned around. There was a man, or what used to be one, he disappeared in a red mist, a huge yellow grin on his face disappearing. She felt a burning hot grip on her shoulders. She screamed as her world became black.
It remained black for a long time she only recalled the voice of a woman saying, "I won't do it you sick bastard!" and Andrew Ryan's voice yelling, "You will if you know what is good for you woman!" After what seemed like years of sleep, she finally woke up. She looked around the room only seeing a strange silver cylinder. She walked to it and slowly picked it up, she knew what to do now. She then turned to see Jackie, wagging his tail. "Come on Jackie, she said, let's go find Adam!" She slowly walked forward, "Jackie's" mechanical feet thumping behind her.
