Pauper's Drop

James stepped out of the bathysphere with the smell of stink and something burning breaching his lungs "ahhh, I'm home"
James kept on walking to his house with the thought of dad entering his brain "god dammit they killed him. I'll find them and I'll kill them." James said to himself.

As James kept on walking he finally reached a familiar place the diner, the diner was a place where James would always hang out it was a place to always meet his friends but now it burns. He finally got inside the diner he started searching then a couple minutes later gunshots could be heard they appeared to be coming from the top of the diner, James swung the tommy gun off his back and waited.

Epsilon

A hand, a simple hand in a warped dreamscape. Reaching out it grabbed something hidden by blackness. Music starts to play in the air as the vision clears to reveal a jubilant gathering in a grand ball room.

Give it time, all the time in the world
If you give me your heart, we'll give it a whirl
Give me your love, and I'll give you mine
It's so simple, it's just time

Focusing, the vision clears enough to make out the shape of a fine dressed lady holding another's hand. The tempo slows down to a slow, soft rhythm. The women leans closer in. She whispers, "...ove you forever, my sweet doctor."

Epsilon was sharply snapped out of his, for lack of a better word, vision when his towering stature had klunked itself against the bulkhead frame that opened up to Pauper's Drop. The metalic ringing echoed in what seemed to be an abandonded district. It was too quite for Epsilon's liking. Looking back behind him, which took him turning his entire body to do, he wondered if his tag-alongs had been in step. Quickly thinking about it, he wasn't sure if he cared or not that they were. His destination was still the same.

Lumbering along, the massive mighty man, if he could be called that now, searched the area for any sign of life. He quickly found that nothing was here of value. He was aware of a few splicers here but they were in hiding. Having no little sister, Epsilon's intimidating size would probably suppress any needless attacks by the local ruffians.

With that he continued along his way, towards Apollo's Square.
