Siren Part 7
By: Bowrider

The three mutants looked between each other trying to understand what they were seeing. After a moment of staring at me the blue boy called Kurt stepped forward.

"What are you doing here? You should be dead. Everyone in the school saw you frozen solid; no one could have survived that, even if you are made of water."

"Well apparently I can, so considering I made it out of that ice prison how about you stop arguing amongst yourselves and take me to Bobby's room. I may not be very happy with him or the professor at the moment, but considering my options it's probably for the best for me to stay here for the foreseeable future and to do that I should probably try to keep the peace as much as possible don't you think?"

Once again they began looking back and forth between themselves as if they still couldn't believe that I was even in front of them.

Slowly while the two older mutants were still shocked Isaac approached me and said, "I'll take you up to the house so if you'll just follow me."

Without looking behind me, Isaac and I made our way up to the school to pull Bobby out of his apparent depression. The slow walk gave me time to think about what I would even say to Bobby once I got him to open the door. I didn't even know for sure that he even froze me intentionally, because if I didn't have control over the water jet that propelled me during my escape maybe the interaction between my water and his ice was an unknown reaction as well.

While thinking about this Isaac had turned slightly and was watching me as we climbed the hill.

"So what's your story? How long have you been a mutant?" Isaac said.

"Me? I've been accused of my own murder, escaped the police, fled from a mind reading mutant and come back from being frozen alive. As for how long I've been like this, well if I was frozen for about a week then I've been a mutant for about a week and a half." I realized about half way through my little speech that I was being really rude to him for no good reason so I continued on saying, "Look I'm sorry, but my life has taken a real nosedive recently I hope you don't mind me venting a little bit, I know that I just met you and all."

After walking in silence for a little while I spoke up once again, "So I heard some of your conversation while I was in the pond, are you really more powerful than the other two of them down there?"

"In terms of sheer power definitely, but I would have a rough time hitting either one of them if it came down to a fight. You see Kurt can teleport and Kitty can literally walk through walls so even if you wanted to hit them it would be tough to land a solid blow. I'm only new to this myself so I'm still finding my limits, but my abilities seem to be centred around creating and manipulating fire."

"Strange that of the few mutants I know of nearly half of them have some type of elemental ability: water, ice, light and fire now."

Isaac stiffened for a moment and then opened the door into the back of the school.

"You'll find Bobby's room on the second floor; it's the fourth door on the left. Hopefully we can talk more later, and good luck with him, everyone is pretty worried about him."

Walking up the stairs and approaching Bobby's room I prepared myself as I knocked on the door.
