inFAMOUS 3: Equestria

Cole woke up a few hours later, and found Spike standing over him, a large stick, bordering on a rough stave, held in his claws.

“Ugh…Spike. Move.”

Spike looked down, and took a few steps away from Cole.

“Welcome back.”

“Thanks. How long was I out?”

“Just a few hours. Didn’t have any issues.”

“Good.”

Cole stood up, and ran a quick check over his powers, not noticing anything glaringly new.

“I wonder what power I got from this Core…”

Cole turned to one side, and pointed his right index finger at Spike. Rings of electricity rolled down his arm, and built at the tip of his fingers. He let the electricity loose, and a thin bolt of lightning struck Spike in the chest, and sparks danced across his scales.

“H-hey! That t-tickles!”

Cole sighed, and Spike stopped shaking with laughter as the sparks dissipated.

“So, where are you off to now?”

“Don’t know. You got a map of this place?”

“The town? Or Equestria?”

“Equestria.”

The word felt strange and heave on his tongue. Spike looked around the library for a few minutes, and then came back holding a scroll and he handed it to Cole.

“I marked the locations of the other towns that lost power since the Blackout began.”

“Manehatten and Canterlot…”

Damn those feel weird to say…

“Yeah. North of here is Canterlot, and Manehatten is east of there"

“Cool. In that case, I am bound for Manehatten.”

“Okay. I have a friend there. I’ll let him know you’re coming. Rumor is that he’s locked himself in a bunker, but he might also have another Blast Core.”

“You know where this bunker is?”

“No. All I got from him is that it is ‘Where life and death meet’”

“Great…another cemetery.”

“Manehatten is several hours from here by train, so you’d better get going.”

Spike handed him a large package that glowed with a bluish light.

“It’s dangerous to go alone. Take this.”

Cole took the package from him, and he felt the energy of several Blast Shards inside of it. He quickly drained them, leaving just the wrapping. He felt his energy reservoir increase in size.

(Battery Core obtained. 24 Shards until next Core.)

Cole opened the door, and walked out to the deafening roar of cheering coming from the hoard of ponies gathered around the library. Several burly Earth Pony stallions swept him off his feet, and paraded him around to the cries of, “Cole MacGrath! Savior of Ponyville! Electric Guy!!!”

Cole sighed to himself at the last one, but laughed a bit anyway. The ponies set him down at the train station, and Cole made his way over to the tracks. He nodded to the ponies, then hopped onto the rails, and he was off like a shot.
