Black Frost // John Proudstar

2.3 kill for me

"Hello Johnny boy. Expecting someone else?" Her voice was hard, emotionless and when she shoved him off of her, John felt ice weighing him down, spreading all over his body. It was bitterly cold but it wouldn't kill him.

"Akira!" John shouted as Black Frost stretched out her hands, scanning the crowd with her milk white eyes. Everyone looked scared of her, as it should be. A long crack moved down her check and towards her neck. It was filled with ice.

"That's not my name and you know it." Black Frost said with a laugh. "When will you learn?" John struggled against the ice as Marcos and Lorna rushed forward. Marco's hands immediately lit up, light refracting off the ice, melting it slowly. 

"Don't move Black Frost!" Lorna shouted just as Black Frost was about to propel herself upwards with icy blasts from her hands. Black Frost glanced back at Lorna. She had those metal pipes still floating around her. They were all aimed at Black Frost's back.

"Aw, Polaris? You gonna stab a friend in the back?" Black Frost said mockingly, jutting her bottom lip out in a pout. "Be my fucking guest." Black Frost turned around again, unbothered. Lorna hesitated. 

"Polaris! Don't!" John begged. Lorna let out a frustrated shout. Black Frost laughed and tossed her white hair over her shoulder.

"Bye bye kiddies." Black Frost said. She leapt up in the air, landed on top of the nearest building and disappeared from their line of sight. 

"Firestorms down! Move in!" They hear a Sentinel Agent shout.

"Shit." Marco shouted. John clenched his teeth and broke free of the rest of the ice. He was cold as hell but he would live. "We have to move now!" Marcos shouted, grabbing Lorna's hand. John took one look up at the sky where Akira had disappeared. "Come on!" Grinding his teeth, John raced after his friends.

Two Weeks Later

"Akira Lim was spotted..."

"The notorious mutant Black Frost..."

"In other news, the ice villain known as..." John stopped flipping through news channels and just shut the TV off. For two weeks now, he Lorna and Marcos have been following leads on Akira. She was spotted downtown, at the beach, in a mall, various clubs but by the time the friends would get to Akira's location, she would already be long gone. John was frustrated. He could only track her on the ground. Once she took to the air, flew off, he couldn't track her unless she left one of her ice bridges which was rare. Akira knows how his powers work which means Black Frost would know too and she would also know exactly how to evade him. It was so god damn frustrating. 

"Stop moping in my room." Diana called out to John. He sighed.

"This isn't your room it's like... Your lab." John said with a shake of his head.

"It's basically my room. I'm in here more than I'm in my actual room in this place." John couldn't argue there. He was about to ask Diana to do another search for Akira when the door opened and Marcos came in.

"Riley had a probability of 89.6% that Akira will be at that sketchy bar on the upper east side. We should go check it out John." John doesn't move though.

"An 89% chance?" He says with a sigh.

"Yeah, its better than all the other probabilities he's had. Come on. You want to find her right? Black Frost hasn't done anything... Super criminal yet but she might soon." John pursed his lips. that was one thing that was bugging him about this whole situation. Akira hadn't really done anything... Bad as Black Frost. She only attacked people who tried to capture her or stop her and she wasn't exactly killing anyone. For some reason, John had expected Black Frost to be more sadistic and psychotic. Not that he was complaining that she wasn't like that.
