Suddenly the massive weave fell to pieces to be replaced by something far more intricate that seemed to reach into the sky. Despite the potential danger Ivan watched in fascination. With the power he could almost see the moisture in the air and he saw how the weave drew them together. It wasn't just water though, in the weave. He saw earth and fire as well, though he couldn't imagine what role they played.
Droplets of water hit his face even as it began to rain over the fire and Ivan's fear lessened. Whoever the man was, it seemed he was trying to put the fire out. He didn't think rain would take care of it but it was something.
Ivan continued to walk toward the man, still wary and ready with his own weave, but less confrontationally. The man wasn't an older guy like the Pastor but clearly he knew what he was doing. He created another weave again of water and fire but with air as well in an entirely different patter. This time Ivan could see how it worked and what its intention was and was impressed even as he saw it work, suffocating the fire.
Ivan noticed the look of Vega's face and paused. There was something there. Suspicion? The guy was on the monster squad. He was gonna see stuff like this and more. Hell, he was working with a guy who had powers. And there was Alex too.
"He's ok, Vega. He put the fire out."
He looked at the guy. "Impressive, man. You ever think about joining the fire department? You could be a one man response team."
He smiled to show he was joking.
He looked around but no one appeared to be injured. He didn't see Volodin either. The distant sounds of sirens indicated that emergency services were near. The place would soon be milling about with officers and responders calming the crowd and assessing damage.
His attention focused on the man. He pulled out his wallet and pulled the picture of Volodin up and showed it to him. "Have you seen this man? He attacked a crowd in the market a few weeks ago and might be responsible for what happened here."
