"I think I got us another lead."
"What'd you got for me Reggie?"
"I've been digging around when I spotted this, here I'll send it to you."
Delsin looked down at his phone as he landed on a roof of a building and whistled.
"Would you look at the size of that thing! Are you sure this isn't from some teen movie?"
"Delsin that was taken this morning by a civilian who later went to the hospital with part of his shoulder missing." Delsin winced rubbing shoulder.
"Ouch... So got any idea where fuzzy wuzzy would be hiding?"
"It's been sited near the great wheel so searching there would be a good start."
"Alright man I'll check it out." Jumping off the roof he turned to smoke and traveled across buildings to the great wheel.
Upon arrival everything seemed normal. People were chatting and the ferris wheel was turning round and round.
"Nothing so far..." He was calling Reggie for ideas when a roar followed by a wave of sound knocked him off his feet.
"Delsin? What the hell was that?!"
"Reg! Oh man you won't believe this!" Delsin laughed as he got up to his feet to watch the roaring beast stomp and thrash through the streets.
"Del what the hell was that? Del? Del answer me!" Ignoring the yelling from Reggie on the other side of the phone he dashed after the raging beast.
"Whoa there hey don't run from me! You wanna play catch?" He called chasing after the beast that didn't have a single interest in him. He followed after it chasing it across rooftops and through streets then it came to a complete stop and Delsin nearly doubled over from trying to stop himself.
"H-hey... Hey can you slow down a bit?" He panted watching the thing as it sniffed the air before turning its head and growls. Looking over where he was growling Delsin can now see why. D.U.P troops were everywhere. And behind them were those neon yellow holding cells.
"W-well this can't be goo-whoa!" The beast rushed forward thrashing at the troops and snarling it tossed them around like chew toys. "It's like a dog."
"Delsin what the hell are you doing?"
"You gotta see this Reg there's a werewolf tearing up the D.U.P like they're chew toys!" Delsin laughed while taking a quick picture and sending it to his brother.
"Holy shit Del! What're you doing just standing there, do something! If that thing-"
"Werewolf"
"Delsin that is not a werewolf that has to be a bio-terrorist."
"First off it is too a werewolf I mean I sent you the picture man, and second it's conduit not bio-terrorist."
"Alright well then just stop the werewolf before it decides to crush the people trapped in those cages?!"
"Fine I'm on it you don't gotta nag me twice." He rolls his eyes hanging up on him before turning back to watch a D.U.P fly over his head before crashing behind.
"You know usually I'd congratulate werewolves for beating the shit out of D.U.P's but I can't have you stealing my thunder." Rolling his shoulders his chain rolled down from his wrist and flicked it once before launching it towards the beast.
A roar erupted from its lips as the flaming chain made contact with its back. It turned around to glare at the conduit before dropping a grunt and got down on it's all fours snarling.
"Now I got your attention." He smirks before shooting out flames. With how bulky the beast was Delsin would think it would be an easier target. He was very wrong. The beast charged easily dodging the attacks and lashed out at him.
"Shit!" Ducking and using the smoke he kept his distance from it.
"Will. You. Stop. Dodging?!" He yelled out in frustration as he continued to try and attack the beast but his attacks would never make contact as it dodged again and again.
"Delsin?!" The sound of his brother's voice over the phone was for once music to his ears.
"Reggie! Oh man please tell me you got some good news cause the werewolf is pretty untouchable!" I yelled into my phone dodging the beast.
"Delsin I'm afraid to disappoint you but I got nothing, but look try to get those people trapped in the cages out ok? They're more important than the werewolf!"
"So you're telling me, the great Delsin, to run away?"
"No idiot I mean just get the civilians out of here! They're trapped in those cages and if you don't get them out innocent people will get hurt." Delsin dodged an attack looking back to see that attack hit one of the empty holding cages and tore it to bits.
"Good point."
Dodging the beast he ran towards each cage tearing apart the door while dodging its attacks. One by one the many cages were opened and people fled from the area.
"Alright one more to-gagh!" Yelling in pain his body was launched back with a loud howl sending him to the ground. Groaning he tried to get back up but a shadow looming over him, pinning him to the ground. The beast snarled over him, his mouth agape and drool mixed with blood dripping down and splattering on his face. "Fuck... Ugh gross man!..." He wipes the drool from his face. "Ever heard of a breath mint?" He groans as it snarled.
The beast grabs his wrists with one of its large clawed hands. Its grip tightens making him wince. "Ow ow watch it will you? One of those is my spray painting hand!"
Showing no signs of responding to his pleas it lifts him higher and higher until slamming his body into the ground, then repeated on its left. It repeated this process over and over and over again.
"Gagh!" Delsin coughed gasping desperately for air as it was constantly knocked out of him until slowly the beast stopped and lifted him back up to look into his eyes.
"What... That's... That's all you got...?" He asks breathless and battered.
Its ears suddenly perk up and it turned its head to stare at the last remaining captives and drops Delsin. "Fuck!" He curses holding his side before looking over and began to panic as the beast walked over to the cage.
"Shit shit shit shit shit shit!... Get away from them!" He yells stumbling onto his feat as his regeneration began to kick in. In a way of showing defiance it sprinted towards them. "Fuck!" He curses as he runs after it before abruptly stopping as it jumped over the yellow cage full of terrified people and ran off.
"Delsin...? Delsin can you hear me? What the hell happened?"
"... Reg... Let's just say that werewolf just hulked me."
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Well if it's nothing then hurry back over here."
"Y-yeah I will just give me a sec I gotta let the last of the group out."
"Alright."
Stumbling over he made his way to the gate and tore the door open. One by one they ran out screaming about bio terrorists. "Shit..." Delsin doubled over feeling the adrenaline from before slowly leaving him and pain replacing. "That fucking bitch hits hard." He grunts before looking up and seeing one of the captives staring at him from inside the cage.
"What... What are you doing? Go, run, be free." He panted trying to pull himself onto his feet. Before he could fall he felt hands grip his arms. Surprised he looked over at the orange hooded figure. They were shorter than him but it wasn't hard to see the round face and big brown eyes full of worry.
"A-... Are you ok?" and it was a girl.
"Yeah... Yeah I'm fi-" Her soft brown eyes harden for a split second.
"That thing tossed you around like a ragdoll." He winced in memory.
"Right... And you do know you're touching a bio-terrorist right?"
"I believe the term is conduit..." She mumbles to herself.
"True very true." Slowly regenerating he stood back up on his feet and her hands slip from his arms.
"Alright now who're you so I can..." He looked back to her to possibly get a name but she was gone. "Where'd she go..." Confused he looked around for any sign of an orange hoodie but saw nothing.
"What the hell...?"
"Delsin? You there?"
"Huh? Yeah I'm here."
"Well then come on we got another lead, you can fight werewolf man another day."
"Right." Turning away from the now empty scenery he phased through a vent and onto a roof before leaving the area.
