Arkylius of Atlantis now rode his giant robotic snake, both now out of stealth mode and visible to those around them. 

"Where did he go, boy?" asked 'Ark as photographers and onlookers recorded video and took pictures with whatever devices they had on hand. 

Arkylius didn't know that reporters would dub him 'Sea Snake' that day. His robotic snake tracked the vantage point of the gunman and the robot and his rider went up the side of a building in stealth mode once again. Sea Snake, as he would be called, turned his invisibility off. The gunman cleaned his tracks rather well, however a single bullet casing remained from one of the high powered sniper bullets. Ark stored the bullet casing in a compartment in the snake and hopped back onto it. Going back into stealth mode the two disappeared once again down the side of the building.

The Atlantian rode underwater with his robotic snake to what seemed to be an underground cave. It lead into a chamber that was dry, and rather than try to find a day job and live among the surface dwellers, Ark decided this would in fact be his new home. He pulled several keepsakes from various compartments in the snake, one being an Adventure Time toy of some kind that had both Finn and Jake on it. 

"You know I finally found out what this was in that town... these two are on something called a tee-vee show called 'Adventure Time'. This yellow creature is called Jake, what do you think of that name..?" Ark asked as the snake honestly didn't seem too moved by it one way or the other, "I'm just saying, maybe we should give YOU a name..."

Director of STRIKE, Gary Frank, watched news reports and witnessed several new heroes being discovered while also keeping an eye on the black behemoth known as Shayd on another monitor. On another screen was arguably the most powerful hero in the United States, the red white and blue clad Liberty Son, son of the 1970's superheroine Lady Liberty. A folder was laid out across a desk with documents on both of the patriotic heroes, one showing the now much older Lady Liberty in a recent photo...
