Delsin Rowe sat on top of the Space Needle in Seattle, his Neon power making the trip very easy. Every now and then he would stop some drug dealers or just practice his parkour by mixing it with his powers. After the downfall of D.U.P. it was surprisingly peaceful in Seattle. He would heal some people every now and then but otherwise, all he could do was explore.
“Hey D, what you doing up here?” Asks Fetch as she comes up next to Delsin.
“Ah you know, just taking in the view of my work.” He gestured to the graffiti he had put up during his rebellion of D.U.P. Fetch looks out and nods.
“Pretty good. Can't wait to see what you'll do next.” Fetch said as she nudges his shoulder. Delsin chuckles before he spots something up in the sky.
“Hey Fetch, what's that?” He says standing and pointing at the small red ball in the sky that was slowly getting bigger.
“Don't know, probably just an asteroid… though that looks a bit too big to just burn up.” Fetch says as she stands as well. That watch as it begins to get bigger and bigger, faster and faster. In unison together they say with wide eyes.
“Oh shit.” Delsin takes command and tells Fetch to get Eugene, reluctantly Hank, and if possible Augustine. The latter was going to be pretty much impossible since Augustine was now in her own jail for Conduits.
“Meet up at D.U.P. tower, I have a plan that is pretty insane.” Delsin says as he uses his light speed too quickly run to said tower. When he gets there, Hank, Fetch, and Eugene are already there. “Hey guys. We have a problem.” People were already pointing at the asteroid that was quickly approaching the city.
“By my calculations, we're right in the place of first impact.” Eugene said in his ‘Angel Armor’. “What plan do you have to stop it or destroy it?” Eugene asks Delsin.
“Well, I know for sure that even if we used our powers together, that we can't stop it. But what if I used the four I have, all at once.” Delsin suggested. Their eyes go wide.
“That's suicide!” They exclaim all at once.
“Using all that power at once will destroy your body. I know you're the first Conduit to be able to absorb other conduits but no Conduit can hold that much power! At least all at once.” Eugene said in his ‘Angel Armor', his voice coming out slightly distorted.
“It's worth a shot right?” He said with a smile. Fetch gives him a hug with a sad smile on her face.
“Your insane kid. Godspeed.” Hank said holding out his hand that was surrounded with swirling smoke energy. After Fetch released the hug, she grabbed the same hand that Delsin had used to grab Hank's hand.
“You better come back.” Fetch said as Delsin began to feel his body absorb both of their powers.
“To infinity and Beyond.” Quoted Eugene. To their surprise, a fourth hand joined them.
“You better not fuck this up.” Augustine said looking away from him. They didn't ask questions and Delsin groaned as he absorbed their power. He body began to glow with the mixture of all of their powers combined as he let go of them. He huffed before in a flash of light, he was halfway up the tower, running towards the meteor. Cracks appeared with every step as his body was surrounded in concrete.
Everyone watched as the meteor was almost touching the tower when it exploded. Though it didn't completely destroy it, small fragments hitting buildings. Some would have hit civilians but the four Conduits used their power to protect them and heal them.
Days later, there was no sign of Delsin. Everyone gave up but Fetch. She ran and ran across every inch of Seattle, looking for him. Though there wasn't a chance she would ever find him. For he was now gone from Earth, but he was still very much alive.
Delsin woke up in field of soft grass. The blades tickling his neck. “Ugh, what happened?” He asked himself as he stood on shaky legs. It felt like when he absorbs a new Conduit power. His entire body in pain. His red beanie cap was slightly singed as well as the rest of his clothes. When he got himself reoriented he looked around his surroundings, he noticed that he was surrounded by snow, but in a 5 foot radius from him the snow had melted.
“Weird. I don't think Seattle ever got snow before.” He said picking some up. He made a snowball and threw it in a random direction. “Damn is it cold though.” He looked in all directions before seeing a city that was to the east. “That looks like my best bet.” And with that, he made his way to the city.
When he got close to the outskirts, he heard the sound of glass shattering. “Robbers? That's new.” He looked and saw smoke coming from the chimney and he smiled.
“Finally.” He used his skills in parkour to make his way to the top of the building and absorb the smoke. Suddenly his body didn't feel cold anymore. “Ahh, that's more like it.” He looked over the edge to see… anthro ponies? There were two unicorns and a pegasus, all wearing ski masks and the unicorns using their magic to hold up the bag that must have been filled with cash. They all had on black coats over their fur to protect them from the cold.
Delsin smiled and used his Sulfur Bomb to make them begin to cough and drop the bag which clanged loudly when it hit the ground. He dropped down and subdued all of them with ease. “What the Tartarus are you!? And what did you do to my friends!?” Yelled a huge stallion that was a head taller than the rest of the ones he had subdued.
“Just made it so they couldn't escape till the police arrive.” Delsin said calmly as he prepared a Smoke Blast. The pony growled and prepared to charge but was thrown back when Delsin unleashed his Smoke Blast. “And I don't think you'll go down as easily as they did.” Delsin joked as he watched the pony get up.
At a speed that was surprisingly fast for a stallion his size he tackled Delsin and pinned him to the ground. Delsin put his hands together underneath the stallion and used a Cinder Missile that launched him high into the air. “And to now to finish this.” He used a vent on the side of the building to get to the top of it so he was above the stallion that was beginning to feel the pull of gravity.
He used his Smoke Slam to effectively break some bones in the stallion. “Ooh, maybe that was a bit much.” Delsin cringed at the still breathing body of the stallion as he bled lightly from several areas. At the sound of sirens he knew it was time to make his escape. He Smoked Dashed through another vent and he was on top of another building, watching as instead of police, guards in golden armor arrested the robbers.
Delsin backed up before sitting near the door to the roof. “Well, I destroy a meteor and get transported into a land ruled by intelligent ponies. Cause that makes perfect fucking sense!” He yells that last part out. He sighs before standing and uses his Smoke Dash to fly across the buildings. The further he went in though, the worse the crime got, and it was very hard to travel using his Smoke Dash and Smoke Thrusters. He would need to find a neon sign or something so he can travel easier.
He had already taken down several criminal groups when he realized that the ponies that were supposed to be stopping this kinda shit was slow as hell to respond. Especially in the winter weather. “Time to be Superman.” Delsin said as he had climbed the tallest building and he was now on top of a tower that overlooked something similar to Times Square.
And seeing as his spray cans were brought along with him, he decided to mark the biggest billboard there. “Now that, is art.” Delsin said pocketing his spray can. He absorbed an electronic billboard and used Video Surge to fly off, leaving the ponies to wake up tomorrow and see his handiwork.
Little did he know, that would be the final straw.
