Atlantis

It is a subject of discussion amongst most historians. What happened to Atlantis. Now we of course know that it didn't sink, an unfortunate mistranslation, but instead rose up from the sea. It orbits our sun like a planet and the civilization has stood for thousands of years. Excerpt from 'A study of Atlantis' by Dr. Ducko Soup, 2018 After duck

We left for Atlantis, taking the teleport. Arriving, we were awed. They had placed the teleport on the highest tower of the city and that had been a great choice.

Sprawling before us was a city made of ice, surrounded by a bubble of what looked like water and floating in the sun's orbit.

Atlantis had risen up from the ocean thousands of years ago. It was a city built underwater by sentient sea creatures under the guidance of Poseidon, when he died they had escaped the planet in fear of being destroyed like the gods. Because of this Atlantis was the oldest civilization centered around superhumans.

We took an elevator downstairs and went to the reception. This building was called the hub and was the only building in Atlantis with a teleport. Each organization that had access to Atlantis could be accessed by the receptionist. The hub was also a hotel since most people who came here didn't have a home.

"Ah, you're here for the power plant sabotage. Go to the plant and ask for Ted Pott, he'll explain what you have to do." The receptionist said.

When we stepped outside we were surrounded by water yet were still able to breathe and didn't get wet. I'd heard about this, there was some kind of magic formation surrounding making it possible even for people who need oxygen to move around the city.

We arrived at the power plant after a few minutes of walking and swimming. It was made from some kind of ice just like the entire city and worked with solar panels. Since they were extremely close to the sun and didn't need to worry about the weather this was a great choice.

We found Ted giving orders to other workers. To my surprise he was a human and thus not native to Atlantis. He was a burly man in his 20's, had a snowy white skin and seemed to possess enhanced strength if I'm going off of him lifting up what looked to be a car was any indication.

"Hello, we're here for the mission. They told us we had to speak to you." Thea said. Ted looked up, seemingly surprised someone had come.

"I didn't think anyone would actually come. That doesn't matter, As yeah might have figured, this plant keeps getting sabotaged so we need someone to look into it. Every time we fix it, they sabotage it again."

The problem was simple to fix, they cut the wires. But if they keep doing it then it doesn't matter how many times it gets fixed.

That night we were hidden close to the wires waiting for the perp. Waiting there I started making another body enhancing formation.

Well, more like finishing it. This was an ability that I would only use as a last resort and I had been working on it ever since I got my wings.

This was an extremely complex and fine formation, which was ironic since the ability it would give me is wild and unpredictable.

"What the hell are you doing?" Thea asks when she sees the glowing letters of the formation. They disappeared after a second since I was done but that made her even more confused.

"I was making a last resort. It's done now." she looked at me like she wanted to kill me for not telling her.

Suddenly we heard a noise, someone dropping to the floor and wires snapping.

We silently got up and started following them, knowing that there was a big chance it was a group sabotaging it.

They were very cautious making random turns, walking around in circles, speeding up and slowing down at random intervals and going into crowded areas.

This was a pro, through and through. Sadly for him I was flying overhead and Thea was using her abilities to sense his unique electrical nerve pattern.

Finally we arrived at a manhole, they entered and we of course didn't follow but looked for the closest one and entered via that one.

Entering the same manhole would be stupid because they might have noticed us and might be waiting in ambush for us.
