Hello Bioshock fans and I am introducing my first Bioshock story to the public of . I just finished Bioshock Infinite and it was a great game. What really mindfucked me was the ending. I'm pretty sure the ending gave you a WTF moment in your head. Anyway, when we found out that Booker and Elizabeth related (If you don't get what I mean, find out yourself.) lots of us were disappointed due to many of us thinking the game would end with them being a couple. I was a little disappointed that they didn't end up being lovers, but I still liked the ending because at least Booker still has someone to comfort him. Anyway, the story is set in an AU and is set right after the ending of the game. Hope you like my first try at this story.

Booker has finally done it. He really done it this time. There he was getting drunk at the tavern. He had just already drunk a lot of alcohol. The starters were the beer then he moved on to others. He didn't know how many he drank after finishing his cup full of beer now no longer full.

"Gee, buddy. You had a hard day?" The bartender asked. "Yeah, I did." Booker, responding to his questions.

"What happened?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"You sure, because I can help solve your problems."

"I said no." Booker said this time raising his voice a little bit. "Okay, if you so." The bartender walked away to go ahead and clean cups and mugs. Booker continues to think and ponder on what he has done. He wonder if he can even take it back, like it was all part of a nightmare. As he continues to do so, a man walks up behind him.

"Hello there, friend." Booker turns around to see who this strange man was. He is actually shocked to find out who it really was.

"Nathan?" Booker said in amazement. "Hey Dewitt, long time no see."

"How is life treating you, Nathan?"

"Pretty good. I see you're at this very here tavern again. In the doghouse again?"

"Yep."

"What you do this time? Lost your temper at a bugger?"

"Yeah. Pretty much."

"Did you get him good?"

"No, it wasn't a 'him'."

"Oh boy. This is not good. What's happening?"

"Nothing good today. The only thing that happened today was broken trust and heart."

"Who's heart did you break?"

"What do you think, Nathan?"

"Oh. Don't worry about it man, you can find another person to hang out with in your life now."

"No... no, no, no. You don't understand."

"Something tells me a story is coming on." Nathan sits beside him, waiting for the whole story to unfold to discover what has happened.

"It all began near midnight..."


Booker, once again, had began gambling again even after all the things he went through in Columbia, yet he still had not learned his lesson. He was going to learn it sooner or later. Anyway, the guys he was making a deal with wasn't just a normal guy. Possibly a stupid choice to make, but Booker was desperate. Booker was in his apartment as usual in New York, but this time, he had to share it with Elizabeth. Since she didn't have a home anymore, he gave her shelter at his place. She was happy to hear him say that and was very reluctant to have met a man like him. He was currently at his apartment ready to go meet the people he was going to deal with, but as he try to sneak out, he was immediately stopped.

"What are you doing?" Booker quickly turns around to see Elizabeth giving him the stare. "Well, you didn't answer my question."

"I was just going to run an errand."

"Really? Near midnight?"

"I like to do it early?"

"Booker, I know what you're actually doing." Booker sighs deeply. "Elizabeth, come on."

"I thought you promise me you would stop gambling."

"Oh come on, I make more money that way."

"Yeah, but the problem is that it's dangerous. Why can't you just get a regular job, you know like at the police station."

"Look, I told you I just don't feel like it right now and this is just one time. Don't worry, this is the last gambling I'll do. Now, can you please let me go?"

"Why should I?" Booker did not know what to do at that point when he saw something important Elizabeth was holding in her left hand. He quickly snatches it from her, revealing to be a book. The title of it was Odyssey. What made her want to read a book like that?

"Hey! Give it back!" She said giggling. She attempts to try and grab it from him, but he stretches the book over his head. Elizabeth then turns to jumping, but she was small that she couldn't even get a finger on it. Booker laughs at her attempted failures before without knowingly, he is pushed onto the floor by her and she lands on him, finally getting the book back.

"Got it. Nice try."

"Yeah, but now I got you."

"What?" Booker grabs hold of Elizabeth and they began rolling until Booker was on top of her. "Booker, let go." She said giggling.

"Not until you let me go gambling."

"No. I won't."

"Then I have no other choice." Booker begins giving her kisses all over her face. "Booker, stop!" Elizabeth said, trying to stop giggling.

"No." Next came his hands, which he uses to tickle her stomach. Elizabeth soon found herself laughing uncontrollably.

"Booker, please!" She said with loud amount of laughter coming out of her. "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to let you."

"Let me what?" Booker goes back to kissing her neck playfully. "I'm going to let you go do a little gambling." Booker and Elizabeth finally gets up from the floor when he gets off her.

"Thank you. I'll leave you to a good evening, Ms. Elizabeth."

"Wait Booker."

"What now?"

"Can you promise not to over gamble?"

"Sure. Anything for you."

"Thanks." Elizabeth gave him a kiss on the cheek, which sends chills down his spine. Elizabeth goes back into the room to go back asleep. That is where his wife used to sleep until she passed away. He and her wanted to have a child, but they never go to it. So he was left widowed and childless. After their adventure in Columbia, Elizabeth wanted them to get marry and have kids. Strangely, she said to him that she never had sex before, stating that she was a virgin. It's probably some flirting going on. That is what Booker thinks at least. Booker wants to have a child, but he doesn't want to be rough on her during you know. He wants to be gentle since she never had the experience before. Booker never had experience sex himself also, but he wanted to still be gentle with the girl. From there, he decides to go to where he is needed. He walks on the streets alone on a nice cool night in New York. As he is walking by, he pasts some people. A couple women saw him and dwindled. One try to even flirt with him, but he's not interested, which is a disappointment to her. On a night like this, he thinks of Elizabeth's dream, which is seeing Paris. He bets that Paris is probably more brighter than New York or at least bright as the city. He gazed his attention on one of the bar with lights hanging outside. It was one of the finest bars you could find in the city. From it's appearance, he was in the right place. He enters only for his vision to be clouded by smokes from cigars, but eventually clears up. Despite that, the bar looked pretty neat and clean. There also seems to be a piano, but the player is not able to be seen. He looks at the well cleaned bartender who has brown hair and has a beard that takes up almost half of his face.

"What brings you here?" He asked. "Just going to see some friends."

"They better be the good kind of friends. Don't wanna hang out with bad ones. They'll get you into some deep trouble."

"Yeah. I get it."

"Hey Dewitt, you lost? Over here." Booker turns to see his old army buddies. The youngest present at the Wounded Knee massacre was Johnathan. He was only 18 when he went in. He had brown hair that was all shaved off, but it would grow back soon. He seemed to be dressed in some kind of suit. Wonder what it's for? Then there was Thomas. His hair was all pulled back, leaving his face to be only seen. Thomas and Slate go way back during the American Indian Wars. He claims to have participated in the Battle of Little Bighorn, where Custer and many of his men got slaughtered. Finally, the last one appears to be Robert. According to him, he once served alongside Ulysses Grant during the Battle of Gettysburg and continue to through the end of the civil war. Like Booker, war changed him. He doesn't really talk much about what he did in the war, but he does give little details to Booker.

"How has your life been, Dewitt?" Robert asked. "Doing fine, how have you guys been?"

"Great. Also, I believe Jonathan has a surprise for you."

"Really, what's the surprise?"

"Well, now that you're asking, I met a girl after Wounded Knee. We started dating for a while and then would you know it, I found myself engaging to her." Jonathan said.

"That's good for you."

"Anyway, has life been treating you well after your wife's death?" Booker didn't respond immediately. Jonathan now thought he felt bad for saying it. They knew he lost his wife to child birth and his child died several minutes later. To make him relieved, Booker responds.

"I been doing well after since... her death."

"How's Elizabeth?"

"Well also. Why you wondering?"

"I'm just asking."

"Asking about what? What are you even thinking?"

"I just thought that you were lonely and well.. she didn't have a fiance."

"Okay, I know what you're trying to get at. Look, we're just friends. I not looking to remarry."

"All I'm saying is that maybe you can satisfy her."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, she could show you around her 'backyard' and maybe you can just-" Before he could say another word, Booker interrupts immediately.

"Whoa! Okay Jonathan, you need some help because I'm not looking to have intercourse with her."

"Hey, okay, okay. Sorry. Making a suggestion."

"Yeah, I'll think about that if I decide to marry her one day."

"Okay look, let's just play some cards, alright. You know, in celebration my wedding."

"When is it?"

"This weekend."

"Good. I'll go first." Booker sat next to Jonathan and that is when Robert started passing out all the cards. They all then begin playing. As time and time went by, the table was given refreshments and believe me, they chose to drink a lot of those. Jonathan and Thomas past out, not enough to handle the power of the alcohol leaving Booker and Robert drinking for themselves.

"Admit it, Dewitt. You want to play 'pin the tail' with Elizabeth."

"No. Not until you admit that you still owe me 50 ducks back at Wounded Knee."

"Wounded Knee? Yeah right. I owe you nothing until you tell the truth."

"I don't want to sleep with her."

"I know when you are lying, Booker. Tell me the truth know. You do want to sleep her."

"No I don't, for the last time. Plus, there's the age gap."

"Who cares? She's still technically legal."

"No. I won't do it. Just no." He said before dozing off. After a minute of finishing his beer, Robert found himself blacking out and finally falls unconscious on the table.

And this is where we will leave off. Hope you enjoy my first Bioshock story. I hope you review it. Please give me some feedback and I will see you later. That is all.
