Three days before Delsin got his powers
a young man in his mid to late twenties and a kid about the age of sixteen, just finished tagging one of the nearby building in the reservation, "Ahh... I just made the world a better place." the older one said to no one in particular. This is Delsin Rowe a young hero in the making, but he is not h one we are focusing on.
The one we are focusing on is Ivan Varic another young Akomish who lives with Betty and is also following Delsin's path as a graffiti artist. "Ya me too!" Delsin turned to see what his little disciple was able to do. For being only sixteen he is actually pretty good. He made a stencil painting of a bunch of lawn gnomes running away from a man with a push mower.
"Not bad my young padiwon, but we better get out of here before the cops show up."
"You mean your brother," Ivan said with a smile. Right on cue you herd the sound of a police truck puling up next to them.
"Quick scatter!" Delsin yelled as he scooped up his bag of paints and ran words the fence.
"Hay! Stop!" the cop yelled at the two of them. Ivan was still fumbling around with his paints giving the cop enough time to get a hold of him. Ivan tried to struggle free of the cops grip, but had no luck. He looked up to see Delsin shaking his head.
"Looks like you need to work on your escape skills. Better luck next time," Delsin said and made his way out of the ally to then be stopped by his brother Reggie.
"Not so fast there Delsin, me and you are going to need to have a talk," Reggie said dragging Delsin further around the corner. "What the hell are you doing Delsin? This is the third time this week I have had to arrest you and to top it of you got Ivan involved onto this too?! What are you thinking? Is this how you want the rest of your life to be?"
Delsin pulled his arm away from his brother, "hey, I just want to express my self. It's not like am hurting any one."
"That's not the point its still vandalism, it's a crime I have to take you in. I'm a cop." he took a deep breath and sighed, "look I want you to go and take Ivan home, and then meet me back at the long house. We will talk more there.
Delsin nodded and walked around the corner. He saw Ivan and the other cop waiting there for him. "Um... Reggie told me to take him home," he said pointing to Ivan. The cop nodded and then drove off.
"So what's the news?" Ivan asked.
"Reggie it seems is going to give you a warning, but he wants me to meet him at the long house to talk more. I was also thinking of doing one more big tag till we stop for a while. Why don't you meat me at the fish guttery in three days."
"So what are we doing," Ivan asked.
Delsin looked at him with an evil smile, "its going to be a surprise."
-Three days later-
Crap I am running late. You just had to take a little nap, didn't you Ivan. Hopefully I dint miss too... is that smoke? Ivan was approaching the fish guttery when he saw a bald man running towards him. He was in an orange jump suit, a bold fashion choice. The man wasn't paying attention and ran straight into Ivan. Ivan's bag of paints went everywhere. The man was going to get up and get keep running, but Ivan was going to stop him.
"Hey you're going to help pick up my pai..." Ivan grabbed his hand and he could feel a surge of power go through him and then he blacked out.
He woke up in the same spot, with his paints still spread every were. Great now I have to clean all this up. He started to pick up the paints one-by-one and was almost done till one slipped out of his arms and began to roll away. He put the other paints in the bag and began to chase it. He was a few feet a way from it when someone caught the run away can with their foot.
The mystery person picked up the can and handed it to him. Ivan had never seen this person before. She wore a black trench coat and had short read hair. She looked to be in her late thirties maybe early forties. "Thanks," Ivan told the lady.
"You're welcome," she said in a formal tone. "May I ask you a few questions?" She asked, "nothing hard just some simple questions."
"Sure,"
"Good, so first of all do you know someone by the name of Delsin Rowe?"
"Ya, me and Delsin are like brothers."
"Would you call him a bio-terrorist?"
"HAHAHA...," the lady was giving him an icy stare, "wait, are you being serious?" She just kept staring at him, wanting an answer, he coughed, "no, he isn't a bio-terr..." Just then two concrete spikes shot into his legs.
The women bent down to be at eye level with Ivan, "that's not what I was told by Delsin." She got up and turned her back to him. "Strange the old women said the same thing. What was her name? Betty was it?
Ivan didn't know what to think. He was overwhelmed with anger, "what did you do to Betty!" He lifted up his hand and smoke started to form around it. He let out a scream of anger and a huge rocket of smoke flew from his hand. "Who are you and why did you do this!" More rockets launched at the lady, hiring her one after another.
The area were the women stood was covered in smoke. Ivan was out of breath and panting. He fell to a knee completely drained. Then out of the smoke came two concrete chunks smashing into Ivan's chest knocking him back. He was then invaded in concrete up to the waist.
"Me? I am Augustine, head of the DUP and I find and restrain bio-terrorist, like you and Delsin." She walked away thinking for a second. "You know what I could use you two," she used her concrete to put more spikes in his body. He was starting to black out from the pain. "Ya I have been told that hurt," Ivan finally blacked out for the second time today.
~Two weeks later~
Ivan woke up in the long house. He saw all the people that Augustine had hurt for no reason. Ivan didn't know how to feel. Sad or angry all he new is that he couldn't stay here. It would put his people in more danger. He walked around the long house seeing the devastation first hand. As he approached the exit he saw Betty.
"Betty, oh god." Ivan ran over to her bed. She had concrete spikes coming out of her legs. "What happened?"
"Well Delsin turns out to be a conduit..."
"Wait, a conduit?"
"Its another name for a bio-terrorist," she said, "but any ways Delsin and Reggie went to go and get Augustine's powers to get rid of the concrete piercings in are legs."
"I think I might be a conduit too," he looked at Betty to see her reaction, but there was none she seemed completely fine with the notion that he was a conduit. "Ya I shot smoke out of my hands. I kind of freaked out. I think I got it from that guy I ran into outside the fish guttery."
"I think you should stay here and lay low for awhile. We can keep you safe."
Ivan shook his head, "no I should leave here. The longer I stay here, the more I put the clan in danger, I should leave."
"You don't have to we are a clan, we protect are own."
"That's why I have to go, I hope you under stand." Ivan stood up and was about to walk away.
"Just be safe," Betty said with tears in her eyes.
~Japan six months later~
Ivan ran across all of Europe and Asia avoiding the DUP clutches. He fought many of there fake conduits and has gains two new powers, sound and metal. No he managed to get caught up in Japan and is now waiting at a bus stop to Tokyo. His plan was that he was to go full circle. From here he was going to take a plane back to Seattle. Delsin was on the getting close to getting Augustine powers so the timing couldn't be better. The bus he was going to get on, along with a DUP truck and another bus pulled up.
Well there goes all my luck, maybe if I try to blend in I can get to my bus. He through up his hood and put on his head phone as he walked to the bus. He put his head down so they couldn't see his face, but he couldn't see which bus he was getting on either.
He made it on the bus no problem but it was the wrong one, but he didn't know that. What he did know was that there was no one else on the bus. He shrugged it of and plopped down in one of the seats. At least no one will bother him on the bus.
"Hey kid," The bus driver started, "the school you are going..."
"School?! Isn't this bus going to Tokyo?!" Ivan asked surprised.
"No this bus is going to Yokai academy."
"Oh come on," Ivan slouched in his seat, "I guess I can lay low here for a day or two then get out."
That's not going to go as well as he planed.
