Will to Survive

The Battle at Starcourt

The battle ensued as the party members ran at the cloned experiments. Everyone without powers stood back, firing guns, wristrockets, or using nail bats, as the people with powers fought as hard as they could against the clones. Unfortunately, nobody knew what the end result of this battle was going to be. All they could do was keep fighting until the very end.

El was fighting against Evelyn, but they were equally matched to one another. El was confused as they fought when she noticed that whenever they used their powers at the same time, nothing happened. All that happened was that more blood trickled down her nostril. She looked over at Evelyn with a glare as her opponent simply smirked.

"We have the same powers, Eleven," Evelyn pointed out. "If someone fights the another with the same powers, they are matched and no one can be defeated. Especially since I am a part of you."

"What are you saying?!" El said, angrily.

"I was made with part of your DNA."

El glared more and flicked Evelyn away into the window of a store, making sure that she wasn't expecting the blow. Suddenly, she felt herself flying backwards as well, caught off guard from the crashing noise from Evelyn. She quickly sat up and ran towards her enemy as fast as she could, tackling her to the ground. 

"MIKE HELP ME WITH HER!" El called out to her boyfriend. Mike turned to look over at his girlfriend on top of Evelyn and immediately took action. He waved a hand, El jumping out of the way in time, and Evelyn was sent flying into the Burger King sign. 

Delilah walked up to Quinn at the opposite side of the battle with an angry glare on her face. "You tried to manipulate me," she hissed, prepping up her powers.

Quinn simply smirked. "You don't even know what you can do," she countered back.

"But you will," Delilah replied. 

All of a sudden, Delilah lifted herself up into the air, eyes glowing red with had red balls of light in her hands. Quinn's eyes widened as she saw the traitor lift up into the air, not realizing what she had meant by mind manipulation in the first place. From what she knew, the original 003 was known as the most powerful in the lab until Eleven came along, but the files were all destroyed after her death. Now Quinn didn't know what to do with Delilah, considering how she didn't plan this.

Delilah waved her hands around, using energy to grab Quinn and lift her up in the air. Her eyes turned even more red as she started to squeeze her enemy. Her clothes started to rip and bruises and scars were forming on her face. She would've been close to death if Delilah had kept going for a while.

Suddenly, Delilah passed out on the floor, nose and ears bleeding immensely. Quinn smirked, knowing that using this much power with no former training would drain her quickly. Coughing as she stood up, she continued to fight against the party members.

Keelan, having noticed what happened between Delilah and Quinn, broke her fight with Shawn and ran as fast as she could to her friend. She lifted her up into her arms and begged her to wake up, wiping the blood away from her nose as well. However, Delilah made no trace of moment.

"Please, Delilah! Wake up please!" Keelan begged, starting to cry at the sight of her. It reminded her so much about 003's death in the lab. A huge overuse of her powers, which happened to be just like Delilah's because of the cloning. "I need you. Please, you can't die on me again! Please, 003!"

Delilah gasped as her eyes opened up. She sat up and looked over at Keelan, who was smiling a teary smile at the relief of her being alive. The blonde leaned over and kissed Delilah, who was taken back by surprise. But she kissed Keelan back, happy that the both of them were still alive. They pulled away and Keelan helped Delilah up to get back into the battle.
