Water logged

Erin had been on a day trip with a history class she was taken when something went very wrong. She didn't know what the cause was but two very large ferry's crashed right into each other. People were getting thrown over board and both ships were taking on water fast.

"Oh no." Some little kids from an elementary school got knocked over board by accident and she could see other people in similar trouble. People weren't moving fast enough.

Her parents are going to kill her.

"Hold on," she shouts and focuses her mind on the water having a big water construct of an octopus pick up and put people back up on the boat where they would be safe.

This was getting worse and it was all she could do to keep people in the boats where they wouldn't like, drown or something.

And people are starting to notice it's get and she feels sick to her stomach because pictures might get taken. But the boats are both still in danger right now she'll focus on that later.

Bruce had come down this general way to set up with his sketch pad and watch the ferries, when the trouble had started. Not good. Definitely not good.

He concentrated for a second, putting his art supplies inside a light bubble, before transforming his clothing into his uniform. Leaving a sparkling trail behind, he leaped into the air.

And then... someone was... manipulating the water? "What the heck...?"

"Sterling. Erin Sterling," she offers now that the reports seem to be paying attention to other things.

"I'll be okay. I think. I just need to make some phone calls later to try and smooth things over." She bites her lower lip.

"My parents don't like it if I use my powers in public. They'd prefer if I never used them."
