"Man, this city is like a freaking prison," Delsin solemnly stated as he stared at the people trapped in cages.

Both Conduit brothers were currently inside of a D.U.P. checkpoint, observing from an empty watchtower.

All across the checkpoint were cages made out of bright yellow wire, and they were filled to the brim with Seattle citizens.

"All these people locked away, and for what?" Izuku rhetorically asked.

Delsin suddenly slapped Izuku's arm to grab his attention, "I've got an idea; let's bust 'em all out!"

"Are you crazy? This is obviously awful but we don't want to make our presence here too big, we need to stay out of the D.U.P.'s sight so you can grab more powers in peace.Besides the plan was to find a way to sneak through, not charge past like a couple of madmen" Izuku argued.

"I know, I know, but think about how doing this could impact our public image," Delsin explained.

"Didn't I just explain to you why we don't want to have a public image?" Izuku asked ludicrously.

"Yeah, you did, but almost everyone in this city thinks all the Conduits are evil, it would be nice to change that."

Izuku averted his gaze for a few seconds, before he let out a sigh of discontent, "All right, let's free us some prisoners."

"Hell yeah!" Delsin cheered, not realizing that he had blown their cover until a large shard of concrete whizzed past his face and left a shallow slice on his cheek.

"You distract them, I'll work on freeing the prisoners." The two of them split off, Delsin attacking the D.U.P. agents while Izuku busted the cages open.

"You're welcome!" Izuku yelled after the final batch of prisoners.

"Izuku, you alright over there!" Delsin called out from behind a stack of crates.

"Yeah, I just- Woah," Izuku breathed out as he saw all of the unconscious dups laying around the smoke conduit, "You really cleaned up."

"Yeah, I can feel myself getting stronger each second," Delsin stared at his hands, which began to smoke in response.

A groan caught their attention. They turned their heads just in time to see a D.U.P. agent attempting to push himself to his feet.He failed, his arms giving way and he fell back on his stomach.

"Looks like you left one awake," Izuku said as he grabbed the dup by the scruff of his neck and propped him up against a truck.

The agent tried to say something, but Delsin shushed him and placed a finger against his clothed lips, "Don't worry, we're not gonna hurt you. We're just gonna...ok I lied, we're gonna hurt you a whole lot."

Izuku noticed a large trailer out of the corner of his eye, black and yellow in color, with bright blue glowing panels decorating it. The trailer was rectangular in shape, except for a small part where it thinned out, four pegs stuck out from the thinner part to make it easier to transport, and it had three wheels packed closely together on each side near the back.

"Hey, what's that thing?" Izuku asked, gesturing to the large black trailer.

"Bite me, freak," the D.U.P. agent spat out.

"I think we need to give him some encouragement, don't you brother?" Delsin looked at Izuku with a sly smirk on his face.

The sound conduit wrapped his hand around the already injured man's right shin, he focused his power and used a powerful frequency to shatter the bone, "Feel like telling us now?"

"Ok, ok, it's our mobile command center, there are a couple more of them scattered around Seattle, they help us keep control of the city better," the dup cried.

"Thanks, I'll call you an ambulance once we get far enough away," Izuku stood back up and faced his brother, "Shall we?"

Delsin nodded "Let's smash that thing to pieces."

Izuku's phone suddenly began to buzz with a call, he answered it and was met with a frantic Reggie.

"You two need to get out of there, I'm getting word of a heavily armed vehicle heading to where you guys are!" Reggie yelled from the other end of the phone.

"Relax man, whatever it is we can hand-" the gate of the checkpoint was broken open by a large black van that was driving full speed towards Delsin and Izuku.

"I'll call you back!" Izuku yelled into the phone as he tackled his brother out of the way.

The truck screeched to a halt a few feet away from the Conduits, several D.U.P. agents hopped out of the back and took aim at Izuku and Delsin.

Knowing that they were surrounded, the brothers reluctantly raised their hands. The dups got closer, and Izuku let loose the feral grin he had been holding back.

Izuku slammed his palms together and a wide wave of sound flew forward and blasted them all backward.

"You've gotta teach me how to do that," Delsin said, mouth agape in awe.

"Later," Izuku chuckled.

Without warning, a second truck pulled into the compound and parked in front of the brothers.

"I got this," Delsin crouched down and held out his hand close to the ground, smoke began to pour out of his closed fist, and Izuku could tell that he was straining against something.

Delsin opened up his palm and a missile of cinders flew out, crashing into the truck and sending it flying back.

"When the hell did you learn to do that?!" Izuku asked, dumbfounded.

"Well, when you were going to scout this place out, I found one of those core relay things, and then got cornered by the D.U.P, that's when I learned to do that." Delsin panted, clearly tired from the attack he pulled off.

"We need to get running, I have a feeling that we're not gonna get a break from these guys," Izuku said. The two of them narrowly escaped before a third and fourth truck pulled into the compound, leaving the Mobile Command Center behind.

"We're not gonna get anywhere in this city with the D.U.P. breathing down our necks," Delsin groaned.

The service access door opened up and Reggie walked through, "I can help with that."

"Wait, we didn't tell you where we were, how did you find us?" Izuku asked.

"A few years back I hid a bug behind both of your cases, helps me figure out where you two are being hooligans," Reggie held up his phone, revealing an app with a green compass on it.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, you track us?!" Delsin yelled.

"Can you blame me? You two are horrible," Reggie said, "But anyway, I was able to gather some Intel on the D.U.P. and that Mobile Command Center thing out guys found only helps them keep control of certain areas, and there's a much more powerful version of them called the central communications network, Destroy that, and you'll be able to roam the city all you want, as long as you're sneaky about it."

"Alright, Mr. Stalker, any idea where it is?" Delsin questioned, still clearly miffed about the tracking app.

"Well, you said you wanted to visit it."

Delsin's eyes went wide, "No way, Space Needle?!"

"Space Needle," Reggie nodded.

"This is so not how it looks on the internet," Izuku deadpanned.

The Space Needle was covered toe-to-tip with surveillance equipment, and a flag bearing the D.U.P. insignia flew overhead.

"Elevator's down, you two will have to get up there the old fashioned way," Reggie said as he approached them.

"Do you seriously expect us to climb that thing? There's no wa-" Delsin cut himself off as a pair of arms wrapped around his torso.

"See ya later, Reg," Izuku's face was plastered with a malicious grin and he fired him and his brother upwards with a strong pulse of sound.

Delsin broke out of the sound conduits grasp the minute they landed, immediately dry-heaving.

"Oh you're fine," Izuku chided.

The sound of footsteps pounding against metal hit his ears, the conduits dove behind a couple of crates to avoid the hail of gunfire that soon followed.

"Izuku!" Delsin shouted over the gunfire, "I see another one of those core relays, cover me while I get to it."

Izuku stood up from behind the crates and opened fire, rapidly firing weak sound blasts from each one of his fingers.

Out of the corner of his eye, Izuku could see Delsin getting his new power, he crouched close to the ground, before his body took the form of three balls of smoke that rocketed upwards.

Once high enough, the smoke balls recombined, leaving Delsin free-falling in the air for a few seconds before he sent himself hurtling towards the ground faster and faster using the smoke coming from his hands.

Not a single dup was left standing when Delsin came back down.

"Enough of your tomfoolery!" A snooty voice yelled.

A bald man wearing a black trenchcoat walked out of a room built onto the center of the Space Needle, large shards of concrete floating around his torso.

"Might wanna cover your ears," Izuku smirked, Delsin wisely did as he was told.

Sucking in a deep breath that echoed through a three block radius, Izuku braced himself before letting loose a supersonic scream, shattering the concrete around the bald man and forcing him to the ground, blood spurted from his ears and he passed out from the pain.

"God I hate your powers," Delsin groaned.

"What?! You just said you wanted them, like, an hour ago," Izuku said, slightly offended.

"Yeah, and now I realized just how loud you are. Plus, there are only so many of those core relay things in this city, I gotta be careful choosing the abilities I want to take on Augustine," Delsin retorted.

"Speaking of Augustine, are you sure you can't just steal her power from these guys, they have concrete don't they?" Izuku asked.

"Hmm, I don't know," Delsin crouched over the bald man and grabbed his limp hand, only to be met with the usual reaction to grabbing a stranger's hand, an awkward silence.

"It's like I thought then," Delsin frowned as he stood up, "I think I can only steal powers from prime conduits, people who were born last Ike us."

"So we can't avoid a confrontation with Augustine then?" Izuku asked pathetically.

"Looks like it, but let's just focus on allowing ourselves to move around the city freely," Delsin walked over to the door and it slid open for them.

The room was dark, the only source of light being the several computers inside. A monitor on the back wall showed footage of the city, almost every inch of Seattle could be observed right here.

The two got to work right away, bashing the servers in, shooting at the monitors, and just making a general mess of the place.

Getting caught up on all the excitement, Izuku didn't even notice that Delsin was gone until he had completely wrecked the room.

Izuku found his brother outside, staring up at the flag that the D.U.P. had stung up. The bird on the flag now resided in a cage of purple spray paint.

"Where did you even get that thing?" Izuku asked, gesturing to the silver can in Delsin's hand.

"Continuity," Delsin answered.

Izuku simply shrugged in response "Well I just admit, this is one of your finest works."

"Thanks," Delsin smirked.

The two nodded at each, their two collective braincells communicating the same sentence.

"Fuck the D.U.P!" they yelled in unison.

Hello lovely readers, I'm sorry that this chapter is so short, I spent about a day or two writing Fetch's chapter because I forgot about the Space Needle, and this was what I could get with my writing schedule getting thrown off.

I've been taking a few artistic liberties with a few of the story elements, the flag, the central communications network, the whole tracking device joke, and I'm sorry if that annoys you, but I was trying to make this chapter slightly more comedy based.

That's it for now, thank you so much for reading, peace.
