Infamous 2: Setting Sun

Chapter 22:Powering Up Ascension Parish

8 Hours later...

It was already night and both Cole and Cassie were standing on a roof in the park. "Three sleeping pills later and she's finally out. When are you going to get some sleep?" Zeke asks him, Cole looks at Cassie, yes she was tired and wanted to rest, but there were too many things to do. "No time soon. Right now we need to get some power back on in Ascension Parish. I keep picturing Bertrand holed up over there laughing about what he did to Kuo." Cole answers him "Yeah. Okay, I'll start the transformer near the canal. It shouldn't be too hard to fix. After all, you've got electrical superpowers." he tells him then hug up

Cassie stretches and they both stood up and they ran over to the power-line, surfed on it, then jumps to the building, then glides to the next one and then jumps down to the ground, in front of the transformer. "Okay, Zeke, I think we found it," Cole states as Cassie walks up to the transformer. "Alright, now somehow the Militia managed to isolate the transformer from the rest of them over in Ascension Parish." Zeke informs him, "Huh, maybe I could bridge this on to the next one." Cole states then hung up, he then places his hand on the transformer and shot the other one out, making a big bolt like arrow, Cassie then closes her eyes and navigated the arrow up over the wall, above the city, then over to the Ascension Parish and smacks it right at the transformer, she then opens her eyes and looks at Cole as he removes his hand. "Alright, Zeke, we got the next transformer going," Cole informs him then they took off running. "Good, now get on over to it pranto. It'll take a while for the voltage to build, and the Militia are sure to try and shut that thing down before the relays reset the condenser." Zeke warns the. "Really, Relays reset the condenser?" Cole quotes him. "Hey man, you went to college prep, I took shop classes. So, uh, who's the dummy now?" Zeke questions him and Cole hung up.

Then they step into the dead zone and their bodies started to feel drained, "I hate being off the grid, make me. Makes us, I don't know... thirsty." Cole informs him Cassie exhales as her body felt cold. "More like empty inside." she mutters, "Careful in there, man, ain't nowhere to recharge. Stick to the rooftops." Zeke warns him, they arrive at the transformer and then they charged the transformer, then the Militia showed up and fired at them, but the two returns fire. "Hey, Cole, I picked up some Militia chatter on my squawk box. They are riled up like a bunch of fire ants, and they headed right towards you." Zeke warns him and they sent vortexes right at them. The Militia were trying to shut down the transformer, "Get off." Cole shouts at them, then Cassie sends another one out to them and sent them all flying away and the transformer reaches one hundred. "Haha! One down, two to go." Cole laughs. Cassie smirks as she nods at him and he places his hand on the transformer and shot out the arrow and Cassie guides it over the buildings and then she directs it back down under the water tower and it hits the transformer.

Cole them removes his arms and they run for it, "Hey, how's Kuo doing?" Cole asks him. "It's weird, man. Her skin's cold as a dead man's balloon knot. If I wasn't watching her breathe I'd swear she was dead." Zeke answers him. "You don't sound too worried," Cole states as they climbed the building and ran across the roof. "Actually, man, it reminds me of taking care of you and Cassie after the blast in Empire. But uh... I and Trish were worried for nothing." Zeke informs him and Cassie stiffens as she remembers Trish as she failed her. "Trish should've been worried. Saving me got her killed." Cole mutters then he ends the call and they passed all the Militia below then, jumping over the gaps and arrived at the water tower, the jump down and fired up the transformer.

Then the Militia came at them and the two fired right at them, taking them down one by one and Cassie threw out a vortex and send the Militia flying off the ground. Cole sends two out and sent the Militia flying off their feet and smack hard into the ground. "Finally." Cole mutters, "Two down, one to go." Cassie states and they walk up to the transformer then Cole places his hand on it and send out the arrow and out, Cassie guides it out of the buildings and then send it over the buildings and then directs it right down onto the transformer, "So, Zeke you really think Kuo might have powers? You think she might be like how Cassie and I were after the blast?" Cole asks him with worry in his voice as they ran out to the building, climbs up it and the ran along the power-lines "I don't know, man, maybe. Hey, I'm sorry to have just brought up Trish like that outta nowhere, I know it's a sore subject." he informs them and they both exhaled. "It's fine, we live with our mistakes," Cole said to him as they jump over the gaps then they arrive at the open alley, jump down and activate the transformer. "Ooh, this feels good." Cassie purrs as she rolls her shoulders, "I can get used to this." Cole chuckles as they looked at the Militia that were entering the alley.

They then fired at then, sending out vortexes, making them fly back, Cassie threw out grenades, making them exploded, then the charging was done and a strong pulse was let out and all the Militia were dead, the two pants and looked around, then the power started to come back on, "Yeah, there we go." Cole mutters as Cassie smirks to herself. But then her phone rang and she answers it, "Those Militia goose steppers just kidnapped some girl from the slums. I mean broad daylight and everything. You should find her. you'll look like a stud, get a bunch of convert to your fan club." Zeke said to him, Cassie shook her head at him and Cole hung up.
