A new dawn arises over Lightverse. Delta, young and naïve as he is, seemed to be the only one to sleep comfortably throughout the night. He was only occasionally woken up by the restless tossing and turning of his older friends.
It's probably best to take the opportunity now to explain how a young prodigy such as himself ended up with this band of do-gooders in the first place. A few months before current events, Castor had saved Delta from robotic troops designed by the team's most prominent nemesis: an evil engineer who wanted to take the power of the Gaia Crystals for himself. Delta became fascinated by the new hero on the block and would watch his exploits from a reasonable distance. When his mother fell into a comatose state one day, Delta turned to the only people he knew that would be able to help. Since then, he had been living with the team, getting accustomed to their daily lives, and had become fast friends with Castor. Of course, even a brotherly relationship like theirs isn't without flaws. And today would be an example of such a hiccup.
"EXISSY GONE!!"
Indigo runs into Delta's room and practically crashes into his wall. Delta sits up in his bed with a start, "Huh-?! What!? Castor's missing again?!" "Mmm!", Indigo confirms. "Oh geez-!", Delta jumps out of bed and throws on his white baseball cap and blue glasses, but doesn't bother changing out of his pajamas, "Do the others know!?" Indigo nods, "Mm-hm! Big Green tried to talk to him this morning but we saw his room empty!" "Hang on- ", Delta grabs his walkie-talkie and turns it on, "Castor-! Castor, do you read me!?" No response, the kids only hear Delta's voice coming in from the walkie still in Castor's room. Delta runs into the room only to see it all for himself. "I just said it was empty.", Indigo pouts. Nitro comes up behind the two, "Not only that but the Crystals that were in our possession are gone as well." "Wait what???", Ex calls out from a different room. Delta's eyes well up with tears, "Castor... why do you keep doing this?!", he dashes back into his room and slams the door. Nitro sighs, "Poor kid..."
A few minutes pass, and Delta hears a light tapping on his door. "Delty???", Indigo asks. She presses her ear against the door and hears him sniffling. "Indigo, leave me be!", he wipes his eyes, "It's embarrassing if a girl sees me cry..." Hearing that, she takes the initiative and opens his door, then walks over and hugs him, "I don't care about that. You need this."
Delta freezes for a moment. After a beat, everything comes crashing in like a tidal wave. All that's happened over the past day and the reality of it hits him suddenly. And in his friend's warm embrace, he fully breaks down and clings to her as he cries.
