It didn't take long before the path before her lead her to the Council's grand building. And even shorter of a time before two large, rough looking mutant thugs came slinking up behind the three of them.<br/><br/>"Look Leroy, that pretty lady must be a whore or som'tin. Look at 'em follow'in her round. I sure would like to test yer wares.." The smaller, obviously more talented one of the two spoke while the larger of the men rolled out a guttural howl of laughter then licked his lips. This caused Leah to stop in her tracks. Here she was, about to die of starvation and so close to her goal and these two imbeciles were interrupting her.<br/><br/>It wasn't that she thought the two human men behind her couldn't handle the situation, it was that she really didn't care either way. She turned on her heel, narrowed her gaze in the direction of the two bafoons and smirked.<br/><br/>"Hello boys." She lifted her chin, bringing her hands up from her side to cup either breast, then languidly slid down either side of her ribs to her waist and then to her hips. The two men who were originally behind her, now stood staring in almost disbelief as she teased and toyed. They could of easily dispatched the moronic mutants with the guns beneath their jackets, but found it more interesting to see what this small, frail looking woman was good at. Stepping aside and back behind her, they watched.<br/><br/>The mutant men, had stopped. Tilting their heads to the side, their eyes mimicking each other as they followed her hands slowly down the curve of her body. Once to her hips, the threw her power at them, jutting her arms directly forward, fingers extended and slightly curved. Her eyes began to glow like twin pristine diamonds. Light playing from the corners as the liquid content of their bodies was touched by unseen forces.<br/><br/>The mutants seized in place, still alive, but very confused. There was a reason why she wore so much blue. When she used her power, the essence of water spilled over her, darkening her clothes with moisture. She smirked, cocking her lips in a sure place, a soft gleam of white squinted in the morning light as teeth bared in her half snarl.<br/><br/>The larger of the mutants, whimpered and slid down to his knees, jutting his thick, three fingered hands towards his throat as all oxygen was stopped from reaching his brain. As she had the control over water, all water, the air that flowed so delicately from heart to lungs to brain, was abruptly halted.<br/><br/>"Come now boy's. Do you not like the taste of me?" She grinned wickedly now as the other, smaller one blinked his triple eyes, a single tear slipping fast down his grimy face.<br/><br/>"Not so fast!" She growled as the water threatened to escape from her torture and with a single twitch of her left thumb the tear jerked upwards, forcing its way back into the nasty beings body.<br/><br/>"You are killing them!" One of the guards behind her choked and she whirled her gaze over her shoulder, spitting in his direction.<br/><br/>"You going to stop me?" She mused. She rather enjoyed the thought and then gave a low chuckle as he shook his head and backed away.<br/><br/>She clenched her fingers into her fists, water draining slowly now from both men's pores, leaking everywhere, dripping fat drops into the rubble below their feet. She narrowed her eyes in a sick satisfaction and with a quick motion she ripped her hands from the air back to her sides.<br/><br/>Delicate liquid burst forth from both of them as they landed, lifelessly on the ground at her feet. Her concentration now on the water floating gracefully before her. If anyone else was around that was planning on showing themselves, they would think better of it now. She released the power. The dead bodies at her feet showered in a gentle mist.<br/><br/>Turning back to the excellently tailored men, she rolled her eyes at their terror and stepped through them once more heading back towards the building not even one hundred feet away.<br/><br/>"I swear, there better be food here or I'll have to get nasty." She lowered her eyes to half mast as they settled back on soft sapphire.
