Battle OST

Infamous Second Son OST Double Crossed

Delsin's vision was blurry once again. He could barely move from his prone position on the ground. But he can recover. He just needed an energy source. Specifically the energy source he's lying on. The concrete ground began to shift as parts of the ground moved to inside his body-

"Fucking concrete too!?" Till a hand grabbed his neck. Nearly choking, Delsin came face to face with Andrew. Despite being closer to the gas explosion, Andrew seemed to be in a better shape than Delsin, only having burnt clothing. The conduit was slammed into the ground. Then a strong kick that knocked him to the other side of the street. "You know what, I don't give a damn!"

Delsin ignored Andrew. He only continued to drain the concrete on the ground restoring his vision, only to find himself being picked up. Andrew continued on with the verbal abuse while holding his enemy up. Although in honesty, Delsin was having trouble hearing what he was saying because his voice sounded much more deranged than before. "You can keep on turning to smoke, light, or rocks but I'll JUST KEEP RIPPING YOU APART!" For emphasis, Andrew raised his other hand-

RIP

-And swung it to the side.

Delsin screamed in pain. His left arm now deattached was levitating beside him. While the conduit screamed Andrew was grinning at this. The insane teenager lifted Delsin again and slammed him to a nearby building. Delsin fell down to the ground crumpling becoming awfully silent. Andrew wasn't going to fall for that again. But his opponent shouldn't last long without his arm.

That's what he thought. Instead Andrew could only watch stunned as Delsin began to get up. Although missing an arm the conduit was trying to fight back. With a hefty swing, he tossed out a shuriken made of rock with his other hand. It only took a swing of an arm to redirect it. But the conduit kept on fighting. Shooting out another. Each time Andrew deflected with a bit of force needed.

Punching his opponent down knocked him down and preventing him from firing. But each time he would rise. Each time, the Delsin would rise up to fight. Each time he wouldn't falter. In fact he doesn't even looked pain.

"Why are you still fighting?" Andrew could only ask dumbfounded. "You're already dead. Why do you keep fighting? There's no point going further."

"Isn't it obvious?" Delsin coughed out as concrete began to encase his entire body, even his face. Some concrete from beneath his feet shifted into his body. His missing arm almost looked like it was reforming in his new armor. "It's because a hero never loses!... Also strangely losing an arm doesn't hurt at all. Perks of being a conduit I th-"

Delsin cut himself off and sprinted forward towards Andrew. The sudden action in mid conversation again surprised the teenager. Encased in rocks and leaving tremors, Delsin closed in on Andrew, and swung his hand to the ground. Andrew stumbled back but recovered and opted for a grab. His attempt was thwarted by another ground pound. There! Andrew was vulnerable! He could finish him now! Delsin swung his arm down towards Andrew-

His only concrete arm had ceased momentum. It wouldn't move. It couldn't reach Andrew. Then Delsin began to float. Despite not moving and looking at the ground, Andrew was beginning to lift him up.

"No. I get it. It's because you keep healing when you're near an element you can absorb." Andrew said in a scarily calm voice. "I'll just have to rip you apart where you can't recover."

Despite Delsin's strength, he could not reach Andrew. Couldn't do anything but shroud himself in more concrete before Andrew leapt, with him in tow.

Thunder roared as Andrew lifted Delsin higher into the air. Floating with that concrete encased man, the teenager only continued to ascend not afraid of the lightning that could fry him. The conduit didn't share the same desire to fly in a stormy sky. Nor any potential plan Andrew has in store for him.

Delsin's attempt to break free with physical force wouldn't work. So instead he raised both arms in front of Andrew, and opened fired a hail of pebbles that could've represented a machine gun. Too bad Andrew noticed the attack. Andrew raised one hand barely able to stop the rapidfire projectiles with his power.

Then, letting out a roar that would make Kratos proud Andrew tossed Delsin forward. Right towards the Space Needle.

Despite being tossed like a baseball, Delsin seemed to be thankful to be released. This was what he wanted. Midair he activated his concrete thrusters moments before he made contact with the Space Needle. He still landed on the roof pretty roughly tumbling towards a radio satellite. The moment he regained his bearings Delsin almost smiled.

This was one of the few energy sources nearby. Any other possible source of his power were either inside, or on the other side of the roof. This was the only power he could use now. Video.

"I already know the best way to end this battle," Delsin said aloud as he drained from the satellite. Already he felt the familiar replenishment. His arm had also... reformed.

He was cut off mid-drain as he was lifted from the roof. only to dash forward at an insane speed. Despite that, he didn't get very far. The moment he heard another roar a TK Punch clipped his body and sent him crashing to the roof. Another roar. Delsin formed his wings again to dash away dodging another TK Punch. Another dash to avoid a TK bullet. A direct battle wasn't going to work at all. He only had one shot at this. No Karmic Bombs. He just needed one stealth attack and it'll be over. One attack. Let the night assist him in this...

Andrew was beyond pissed off. Power after power, his opponent just kept going. Healing off injuries that would've killed a normal human. But without a way to recharge, he'll rip him apart. No more picking up and throwing around. Just, pick him up, and rip him apart.

So when Delsin turned around and formed something in the air Andrew grabbed him. Ignoring the digital angel that formed, Andrew clenched both his fists. Then opened them up. The hologram and the angel rippled apart into nothing.

The rage on Andrew's face vanished for a second. All of that anger replaced by confusion, only to realize what happened when he heard the sound. The sound of a blade moving towards his head to decapitate him. That and Delsin's own battle cry.

...

The blade wouldn't move.

So did Delsin.

It was so close. It almost touched Andrew's neck. But Delsin couldn't move. No. He was floating.

The confusion on the conduit's face turned to realization when Andrew began to turn around and back away. The night sky almost shrouded Andrew. Key word almost. But because of the thunder, Delsin could see Andrew's face. What Delsin saw wasn't a look of an arrogant victor. It wasn't the face of someone who enjoyed a good fight. It wasn't a face of a villain looking down at him with contempt.

It was a face of someone that would kill him with no hesitation or regret.

Then Andrew roared

Delsin could only look up, unable to get free from this attack. Even when his wings formed on his back he couldn't move. The only thing Delsin could see was the bright light. The bright light from the lightning bolt raining from the sky into him.


Andrew's fury waned as fatigue caught up with him. He stumbled backwards barely holding himself up with his own strength. That was a tiring battle. A really tiring one. But he made it. He did it.

"Hahahaha... I did it!" Andrew cheered grinning like a maniac. He roared to the skies as he felt raindrops. He won. He did it. Delsin Rowe, the hero was dead. The Apex Predator, the infamous villain of Seattle had won! He had triumphed! There was nothing that could possibly stop him now. Andrew cheered ignoring the pain of his wounds.

Only to feel something pierce through his body and slam pin him onto the Space Needle. Andrew coughed out blood, shocked at what was happening. A bright blue sword made of pixels had just pinned him to the tower. Despite its force and speed it only pinned him to the tower, barely dealing any damage. It was as if he was being restrained. Was this a new opponent!? Or was Delsin still alive!?

Tyrant Wounded

"You done with your tantrum yet?" Andrew's scowl returned when he saw the figure. "You done playing the villain role yet? Well? Are you happy?"

Delsin Rowe walked towards him still living and breathing. Although the man was burnt and his clothes were ready to fall off (fortunately for all the yaoi fans) Delsin continued on as if his body was perfectly okay. The combination of that, the dark atmosphere, the increasing rain and the lightning bolt. It almost made Andrew afraid. Afraid of the half skeleton half blue thing walking towards him.

"You... You're not dead?" Andrew tried to raise a hand. Only to have more swords pin him there.

"Oh no, I'm just a Native American Spirit haunting you," Delsin then paused forming two swords made out of pixels. "But seriously. Let me ask you... Are you satisfied with where you're going? Are you going to keep fighting like this? Hating everything instead of forgiving the people? You're not the only one with superpowers. You're just human, like us."

"Just human," Andrew's scowl vanished very briefly. A smile formed on his face. "You're so wrong. You're so wro- no. Why am I even listening to you? You're an ant to be stepped on. A gazelle to be eaten by a predator."

"Andrew Detmer, I heard about your past from the people I saved!" Delsin shouted. The majority of his body was returning to its original shape. The rain was only getting worse. The storm was here. "You can stop this rampage and join me. I know what you feel. We can stop all this."

Rage. So much rage. It was as if he became the physical embodiment of it.

"You know nothing of what happened to me!" Andrew screamed his rage returning. The Seattle Tower began to shake as he shouted. "THE ABUSE! EVERYTHING! YOU THINK YOU UNDERSTAND BUT YOU DON'T! YOU CLAIM TO BE A HERO BUT WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE PEOPLE NEEDED YOU!? HEROES DON'T EXIST! YOU CAN'T SAVE EVERYONE!"

"But I can try to!" Delsin countered. "That's why we need your help!"

"I heard enough!" Andrew's angry shouts ceased. Instead he spoke coldly. A lightning bolt struck nearby. Delsin was unfazed. So were the angels that appeared around him "I'm ending this now."

"So am I," Delsin said solemnly as the trails of digital energy appeared around him. He charged up energy between his arms, a mix of pixels and blue electricity. "Goodbye, Andrew."

Then tossed it upwards. The thin beam connected to the skies just as lightning tore towards Delsin. Yet they were blocked by the shields that the digital angels produced. Andrew continued to scream as blue lights filled the sky above. He could hear noise. Lightning and static. Irritating to the ear. The constant pressure distracted him and made him look up.

Only to see the swarm of angels coming for him shrouded in lightning.

With a louder than ever roar, Andrew clenched his fists and moved them in front of his face. Blood gushed out of his nose as he swung both arms outwards. The shockwave tore through everything. It knocked away Delsin who controlled the horde. It knocked away the angels, but it also destroyed the Space Needle. The landmark of Seattle was beginning to fall apart. Pieces and pieces crumbling. By that time Andrew was feeling his own body break down. Muscles torn, bones cracking, blood gushing.

He began to fall back unable to keep his flight up. Along with the Seattle Tower he began to fall. Unable to grasp for his safety, Andrew's rage faded away as he saw his impending death.

Then he saw Delsin.

He saw Delsin heading towards him using his wings from before to accelerate towards him. His sword was ready to cleave him into two. No. He wasn't going to fall to this hero. Even if he dies, the least he could do is take him down with him. Andrew roared as he swung his arms up using up what's left of his power. His brain would've exploded on its own by the next minute. All just to take Delsin down.

The conduit exploded into pixels, torn apart by the attack. Only to reform right in front of Andrew just as they were about to impact the ground.

An explosion of dust and rubble. A flash of blue and white accompanied it too as if to mark the end of the battle. Seattle Tower had finished crumbling and the rain began to cease. The storm too followed it.

A lone figure stood amongst the debris of Seattle Tower. Delsin Rowe looked around in search for the teenager's body. But ceased when he saw the two pieces.

"Goodbye, you misguided hero,"

K.O.

City Status: Multiple cars destroyed, a few buildings destroyed, a gas station ravaged, and Space Needle annihilated


Funny thing about this DB is that I made Andrew the first time I made this. I mean it was pretty reasonable. He had a barrier, unstoppable attacks and can keep on attacking. But I didn't look at Delsin Rowe close enough. Delsin could recover from anything. He's a literal embodiment of whatever element he has access to. He could regenerate from smoke, very popular during battle when there's chaos, neon, accessible and weird but hey it's something, video, accessible anywhere, and concrete, which is on the ground beneath us.

Andrew has an impenetrable barrier, but it never faced lasers. Heck it was pierced by a spear from a statue which I could only assume was a sneak attack. And guess what Delsin specializes at? Sneak attacks. But even then, his lasers and digital attacks should've been a match. Andrew's strength and barrier? He had trouble catching his friend's punch and had to focus on it. Delsin is much stronger than that.

But what else is there? The longer the battle goes, the more difficult it is for Andrew to win. He can't recover like Delsin and will continuously take damage from his own power. So while he's furiously tearing apart Delsin who just recovers from scratch, he's tearing himself apart. Delsin could shift into smoke, neon particles, video particles and even concrete. He should win.

In the end, the true Superpowered Seattle Man, is Delsin Rowe. Poor Andrew.

Shadowfrost1 signing out.




Alternate Ending

Eugene and Fetch ran through the streets looking around for signs of life.

All they saw was chaos and destruction. Signs of battle. Destroyed vehicles, crumbling buildings, fires, basically signs of a fight. Yet they couldn't find Delsin. He wouldn't even answer his phone. Sure the storm could've been blamed for the lost signal but it was gone now. He should be answering them. These two could only look around worried on what they'll find.

But their worries vanished when they saw a figure on some ruined building.

"You're alright?" Fetch let out a sigh of relief. "Thank God."

"I told you I was going to be alright," Delsin said calmly. "Can't say the same for the city though."

"D-did you just destroy the Seattle Tower?"

Awkward silence. Delsin sighed.

"Voltz is going to be pissed. But don't worry, it was mostly this guy right here!" He pointed to Andrew's head. "Which reminds me, we have to go now."

A soft groan. It was from Andrew. He was alive. "I mean this guy could die if we leave him. Come on, let's get some favors from Karma."

Without another word, Delsin picked up Andrew and began flying away. He literally flew away. As if he it was something he did naturally.

Both Fetch and Eugene stared at the flying Delsin.

"I must've played too many video games/smoked too many weed,"

I'm going to need to edit this by tomorrow. Here's the rough draft so far. But as I said, this should be the true ending for my first DB looking back at it.
