“You’ll want to hold on tighter than that. One slip up in the body slide process can be disastrous. I’d rather not tell you what it can do to the human body.”, Cable’s low tone informed her, reaching over his metal arm and wrapping it around her waist. His cool fingers settled on her hip, and his grip was firm yet gentle, letting her know he could handle her with ease. Pressing her closer against his form. He considered her words again, the plan. Dead or alive, either one worked for him. Just as long as the murderer was dealt with properly. The last thing mutantkind needed was a mutant serial killer proving humanity’s fears about them. Working alongside a SHIELD/Avengers member would be a good first step. Making sure they were close enough together, he nodded with satisfaction. “Much better.”
At last, he had Belle, the AI in his armored uniform begin the body slide process. In an instant they vanished from their original spot and reappeared at the proper coordinates on the New York docks, the waterfront, facing out to the distant Statue Of Liberty. They appeared among a crowd of civilian onlookers who were watching the crime scene SHIELD had set up, outside the tape. Instantly, they reacted in shock as a ripple of blue energy flashed and teleported the unusual looking pair among them. The crowd scattered immediately before the giant cyborg mutant and alluring SHIELD spy.
Cable took a moment to look around, noting the shocked crowd didn’t run away altogether, merely gave them as wide a berth as possible. Now watching and whispering among themselves about the pair’s sudden appearance at the crime scene. He could feel all of their eyes. With his powers he could hear and sense the buzz of their thoughts and feelings on the matter… smiling a bit to himself at a few of the thoughts. The SHIELD Agents around the crime scene appeared far less surprised by the sight of them, a couple of the agents waving them over. Cable kept his arm around the redhead, bracing her, just in case… looking down into her eyes with a bit of concern. Making sure she was alright.
“Still with me, Black Widow? Most people tend to lose their lunch after the first body slide. But then again, you aren’t most people.”
pressed to his side so unexpectedly, natasha wound her arms around his torso. after the wars she’d lived through, death by body slide would be an unpleasant surprise. and if he wasn’t half bad, then who would know ? ( she was convinced that he was 100% pure muscle, and he didn’t disappoint ).
and BOZHE MOI, he wasn’t lying when he said most would have gotten sick. she was stronger than most and had done more than most, and her legs have been reduced to jelly. ( she remembered now why she hated teleportation. ) leaning against him, she sucked in a deep breath.
“ i can’t say i’m a fan. tell me you get used to it. “ gesturing at the gathering, she continued, “ i’m going to need some help. “ with her head spinning like it never had before, she wasn’t going to risk walking alone.
