Moving to New York.

Ch. 16 Moving to New York.

JANE SMITH POV

It has been months that Daniel brought us here, I was afraid at first. My reality was shatter in a matter of hours by a flying young man who brought me to another world similar to ours, in 1962. All we know about him is that he is young, probably less than 20 and he has powers.

However, here at least nobody is hunting us, in our line of work anonymity is everything, so when the agency that you dedicated years of your life, hunts you like an animal your choices are limited. Nevertheless, as they say, hope is the last to die.

The first fell days were a little bumpy, and even thought Daniel is young he is smart, when he told us his plans for us and why he brought us here, I honestly didn't feel like I was talking to a teen. He is sharp minded and charismatic to an unsettling degree.

When he talked Walter down, his presence left no room for defiance, he reminded me of the director. He broke Walter down and then put him back together the way it better suited him, as if he could see right through him, and read him like a book.

He is dangerous, smart and I want to have someone like that on my side. He values us and wants to work with us, so far he is better than the agency.

Moreover, the surprises do not stop coming.

The three of us, John, Walter and me were in the building we rented to make the lab for the company. It was not a big deal, just a two stories building with a big basement. A good starting place.

Daniel just show up, said he needed to talk with us.

"I'll leave Texas for a while. In the time I am away Jane you will be in charge." Daniel says to all of us.

"Why me?" I asked, I like to know what he is planning, and so far, he does not seem to mind.

"Because I know you are the best one for the job, you are smart and a natural leader. Besides you have done similar work before in the agency." He says locking eyes with me. I can tell he is not telling me everything, I am used to Man attracted to me, and I can see some of that same attraction in his eyes, but that is not everything, I see respect too.

"Ok then, you're the boss." I answer.

MC POV

I fly back home after my visit to Gray Matter Technologies (GMT) new building.

'Man, Jane looks sexy in a business suit. John is a lucky fucker.'

I went there to let them know I was leaving, I do not know when I will be able to fly back here, and I do not want to leave without saying anything. Therefore, I put Jane in charge and left some general directions on what to do. Times are about to get crazy, and this being Marvel I cannot leave them to fate.

The worst part is, I don't know what happens during the Vietnam war, or any major players in this time. All I can do is be cautious and prepare, I can't be everywhere and I need information.

I left a list of all the names of people and companies I could remember that are dangerous and needed to be watch out, and anything government related is a big no-no so they should be fine.

"Now for the fun part."

I have waited for a couple of days after I turn seventeen, and got used to my new power level, now my blast take less than a second to form and it's stronger than ever. After this I suspect I will take my power to a whole new level.

'Time for my second synchronization, hello there crimson countess.'

I select her for synchronization, I feel her power flowing through my body. Crimson Countess has the ability to emit microwaves from her hands, resulting in heat blasts hot enough to melt steel. This combined with my nuclear blast will make me stronger.

"Time to test the new toy."

I started to use my new powers, and unlike Crimson countess red heat wave, mine was a dark orange/yellow like my nuclear power. I could use this power in two ways, the first is to emit microwaves from my hands, I can feel this power has more to give than just blast shit up. This microwaves power is not just heat, but also a form electromagnetic radiation. I need to study more on this, if I can understand my powers I can find other uses for them.

The other way is combining my two powers, this is only theoretical but if I combine microwaves with nuclear energy, I could have the same destructive power of an actual nuke.

"Shit, I have to be careful not to kill myself while training this move."

I am strong, but I do not want to find out the hard way if I can survive a nuke. I have to be careful now, I am getting stronger every day, and it is getting harder to train without someone finding out. Now that I am moving to New York, I will not be able to enjoy o quiet forest for discretion.

'It will be a pain in the ass, but the world is not ready for me, if I show all my power now I will be the most feared man alive, but if I am a good little soldier, with strong muscles, I am a American hero.'

I stop sulking and fly home.

MC POV

"Honey could you help me with these boxes?" Lorraine asks me.

"Yeah no problem." I take the boxes in the kitchen and bring them to the truck outside. Today is our trip to New York, the city that never sleeps. I load the boxes in the truck and close it.

"That was the last one." I turn to my mother and she has a sweat smile.

"Looks like you two are ready to go." My grandpa says, he and the rest of the family are here, well except Scott, Grace said he had work and could not make it from Dallas. They all came to say goodbye, little Lucy was almost crying, she will not be able to see her cool cousin for a while.

Grandma gave mom a hug, and they both had tears in their eyes. I hate goodbyes everyone gets emotion. But I have to admit I am a sad, I love my grandparents and now I won't be seeing them nearly as much.

Grace walks up to me, with Lucy besides her and hugs me. "I will miss you Daniel, take care of your mother, and call us when you get there. Lucy will love to hear from you."

I tighten the hug, when she let me go I looked down to she Lucy crying. "Hey, why are crying so much? Did you hurt your toe?" I try to make a joke, but it does not make a difference.

"Do you have to go? Why can't you and aunt stay?" Lucy asked me, and I did not know what to say. All she knew right now is two people of her family are going away.

"Lucy, I know you are sad, but I have to go. I promise I will call, and I will be back in time for thanks giving and Christmas." I say while wiping her tears, she is still sad, but at least she stopped crying.

We join mom and my grandparents besides the truck. Grace went to say goodbye to her sister and I went to say goodbye to both my grandparents Herald and Joselin. We just hugged and grandpa warned me about the 'dangers' of the big city, if only he knew.

"And if you find a good woman, tell us about it, you could bring her here so we could meet her." My grandma says, I had brought girls home before, but honestly, I do not even remember them all that well.

After all the hugs and goodbyes, we got in the truck and where ready to hit the road. I looked at my family one last time, and wave goodbye. I looked behind them I see in the tree line, my spriggan, I can feel her sadness, she want to be with me and follow me. However, I need her here to look after my family and Jane with GMT.

'The first chance I get, I will fly here do not worry.' I promised her I would be back in no time, she is my oldest companion and summon, I will not leave her and she knows that.
