15 MAGNETO…PART I (1/2)
Lifting the ship out of the Hudson was the easy part, now came the bothersome part, where to put the ship.
Kai knew could fly it to Liberty Island or Ellis Island and put it there, or may be on the shore along the Hudson, but he wasn't sure he would find the right spot that would fit the ship's size and he didn't want to embarrass himself on live TV.
Looking down at the Hudson, Kai came up with an idea that would work for him, he inhaled and blow at the river below and the water began to freeze over.
Slowly by slowly a section on the river froze creating an ice Island on the Hudson. Kai then descended and placed the ship on the ice Island. The new formed island didn't break under the weight of the ship because unseen to the eye, the ice Island extend a few meters under the water making it thicker.
With the ship safely on the ice island, Kai noticed the cause of its problems, on one side of the ship's hull there was a deep slash. He inspected the slash and it didn't look natural. In fact, it looked clean like it was made by a blade.
Kai immediately flow off the ice island and use his super sight to see in to the murky water. With the use of his ability to view in various spectrums, he was able to see deep slash gullies on river's bottom like the after effects of sword masters battling in an anime.
”A battle ground…I would which parties were having a disagreement” he thought.
Suddenly a news helicopter appeared right next to him pulling his investigative mind back to reality.
”Do you mind answering some questions?” came the sound of female report in the helicopter over a PA system.
”Nope” he answered them flow towards a Coast Guard boat that was approaching the ice Island.
He came to a stop above the ship waiting for its captain to come out.
The captain walked out and looked up at him, ”thank you for saving the passengers lives” he said.
”You are welcome. But don't think I will be here next time after all I have my life to live” Kai replied.
”I came here to inform you that in 4 hours, the ice will melt and the ship will go down, so if I were you, I would get those passengers to safety” Kai added before flying off not in the mood to keep speaking to the captain anymore.
He paused for a moment to look at the underwater battle field, ”Is it Namor…. Or may be somebody else?” he asked himself and with a sigh, ”that is not my problem” he said as he flow off in to the distance.
Meanwhile back on the ship…
Jean, MJ and Peter watched Kai lift a ship without breaking a sweat then create a small ice Island in the Hudson with just his breathe.
”So when he said he was strong, he meant I can lift 1000 tonnes no problem…who knew”
”And he can blow arctic breath from his mouth...*sigh*…is there anything he can't do?” asked MJ
”I honestly don't know, I to am in the dark when it comes to the mystery that is Kai” Jean replied. It then occurred to her, she knows nothing about Kai, if even Kai is his really name.
”Did I just fall for a guy I don't even know? ... For all I know, he could be Norman Bates. I need to be careful around him and not act on my emotions” Jean thought to herself.
Right then her phone began to ring, she looked at it to see you was calling and her caller ID displayed a picture of Kai smiling.
”Shit” she whispered, Just looking at his picture got her heart racing, very cell in her body was demanding her to go to him and do whatever it takes to make him happy.
Jean looking at her phone and smiled, ”Hi Kai…” she said answering the phone.
