Girls' Day Out (Boys can come too)
When Moira had inquired about where she could get a new backpack and some new clothes, Cait saw it as a perfect opportunity to go into the city. They had been cooped up at Xavier's since the Mojoworld stuff and Cait felt like the walls were closing in on her. Even though she spent most of her time down by the lake when she wasn't a few miles down the road at class at the local community college.

It was time to get out and for some freedom.

Cait talked to Uncle Scott and had gotten permission before sending out a text to all the other girls at the mansion. Then she thought about it a minute and sent out a page to the boys. Might as well include them as well. The girls couldnt' be the only ones going stir crazy.

When the specified time arrived, she was waiting by one of the school vans. It was nice being one of the older students who had a driver's license at times.

Han has to get on tiptoes to whisper to Cait, wrapping her arm around the girl's neck and locking her muscles to make the chokehold nearly unbreakable.

"I have a secret for you." she says, trying to wrench Cait to look towards Monique.

"We are not here to hurt you." she continues whispering. "Just look at the lady and stop struggling, and I'll let you breathe. If I wanted you dead, your neck would be broken right now. Understand?"

	Cait went still, but she closed her eyes. She wasn't going to look anywhere they wanted her to look. That would mean certain doom. Instead, she focused on the water all around her. This close to someone and she could sense the water inside a body. Very slowly she lowered the temperature of the water. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Han soon found herself having trouble concentrating. She shivers, goosebumps raising on her skin. But for some reason her grip doesn't loosen. In fact, as her muscles contract, it tightens even more. Then realization dawns. "You..." she stutters, trying to concentrate. "Are going to kill both of us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I could kill you before you could even try to kill me," Cait whispered. "Let me go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Han's grip continues to tighten with her forearm across Cait's neck. Maybe talking wasn't such a good idea, as getting much more air is going to be hard.

"You don't understand." So hard to stay awake and coherent.

"Its not that. If I just... just wanted you to stop, I would break your neck right now. But that... that would endanger our mission. I can't kill you, or they would kill me."

She takes a deep breath, body shuddering now as her muscles contract over her locked joints. "But I can't let go... my powers... if you do not stop, I will freeze to death, and crush every bone in your neck. Is beating me worth... worth choking to death? And if your friends cut my arm off in time, you will still be paralyzed. You must stop."

	Cold wasn't working and the girl could kill Cait in a second. Maybe it was time to switch tactics. "Why are you attacking us?" Cait asked as she pulled the water in the girl's body down toward the ground. Maybe with the sudden loss of blood going to the brain the girl would pass out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She's lucky she's as durable as she is, she almost passes out, and despite that, her grip remains, her forearm pressing harder against Cait's windpipe.

"You..." she shakes her head, trying to stay awake. "Stop you idiot. I /can't/ let go. You have... have powers... so do I. I can't let go if I can't... can't focus. We need to... need to test you. Knock me out or kill me... and we both die. Trying to tell you."

The power is obviously having an effect, the only thing its not doing is stopping the chokehold or loosening her grip.

"You need to stop."

	Cait struggled for breath and released control over the water in the girl's body. Spots from lack of oxygen danced in front of her eyes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Han takes a deep breath, and focuses hard. Her grip loosens a little, though she keeps her hold.

"Thank you for saving your own life." she replies, as circulation returns. "I cannot let you go until you are tested, but I promise you, on my honor, you will come to no harm if you do not fight me. I told you, if I wanted you dead, you would be, just as you could kill me. Do you understand?"

	Cait drew in breath and the polluted air of New York never smelled so good. She nodded slightly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Han takes a relieved breath. That would have been disaster, for both of them, obviously.

"Now listen carefully, even if I pass out, or die, my joints are locked. If I freeze, or go into a deathgrip, it will snap your neck. I do not want that any more than you do. You and your friends are being checked to see if you are right for a very special, unique honor. Only a very few will be chosen. As soon as we know, we will take our wounded and go away, leaving you and your friends a little battered, but alive and well. I promise."

	"Call your team off and I'll call mine off," Cait said hoping to get out of this without too much trouble. (Reply to this)(Parent)
