It didn't take long before Delsin got booted off a helicopter and into a deadly island with nothing but a backpack and a collar on his neck, not at all. Thankfully enough for Delsin, he fell onto what seemed to be somewhat of a mountainous range, although not the top of it, unfortunately. That also didn't help him land either, as most all of it was covered in rocks.
Delsin lay on the rocky, cold ground, groaning as he did so. Now he was really regretting taking a spot in this whole competition thing. Delsin wanted to numb the pain using his powers, but alas, nothing worked. He had to get through this, otherwise that collar was going to stay. Funny, how he missed the whole part about not having powers when trying to get them back as he signed up for this.
Sitting upright, Delsin mumbled to himself out of annoyance. "Man, I'm already not liking this..."
Trying to stretch his back outwards to relieve himself from the fall he had just took, Delsin then felt his backpack shuffling about. He smiled as he remembered it's existence. Reaching back, Delsin grabbed the bag, taking it off as he sat, before unzipping it. Digging his arm in there, he had felt some paper, and upon inspection, it was his map.
Delsin sighed in relief, unfolding the paper in his hands. There was a single star that marked the location of his current position. Luckily enough for him, the Clinic was close, which was his plan in the first place. Chuckling to himself, Delsin folded the map up again, before placing it gently in the bag, and zipping it back closed. Even though the height didn't really help his fall, Delsin had to admit, he had a nice view of the place. Hell, he could even see the Clinic almost right next to him.
"Alright, Del... If ya get to the Clinic first, you'll have a... relatively decent base of defense. Just hope Jak and the Doc comes along..." Delsin continued to talk to himself, as he slowly stood from where he was previously sitting. Shaking his head, Delsin figured it was a good idea to start running, since sitting around doing nothing wasn't going to help him or anybody hoping to team up with Delsin either.
Almost as fast as he got up to this mountainous range, Delsin just as quickly, began to descent downwards, watching the Clinic get closer and closer by the minute. Delsin was pretty thankful that he was used to climbing stuff, otherwise this would have had a great deal on his hands.It took a few moments, but as soon as Delsin got to ground level, he had then remembered about his randomly selected weapon. He didn't quite see it when he had first opened his bag, from what he saw, it was metallic.
As Delsin continued to jog and think, he quickly found himself only a few meters away from the Clinic. Not wanting to go inside of the building itself just yet, Delsin leaned against the wall of the Clinic, before opening his bag again, quickly finding his two weapons. He gulped upon realization of what they were. Two, metallic, circular disks. It only took a moment of worry before that feeling changed his expression into a sly grin. Zipping his bag back up, Delsin leaned over the wall, looking at the roads in the far distance, leading into the diner.
"This is genius, Delsin, absolutely genius...!" Delsin said to himself, quickly running to the road he saw in the distance, making sure nobody was watching. As soon as he got onto the road itself, Delsin took no time at all to grab his bag, unzip it once more, take out his weapon, and pull the pin. Upon activating his weapon, Delsin layed it on the ground, right next to the road itself, making sure it was hidden. 'Gotta think fast, gotta think fast.'
Frantically looking to his flanks, Delsin ran off to his right, right onto the crossroads that led into the Clinic itself. Doing the same thing he did in front of the Diner, Delsin pulled the pin of the circular disk, and placed it down once again on the side of the road, easy to miss. Not wanting to activate it himself, Delsin ran back off to the Clinic, breathing heavily. Laughing to himself, Delsin was surprised at how quickly he played out his strategy. It was only about an hour ago he got dropped off into the island, and the Clinic was already his.
Well, at least he could hope that was the case...
