Read Global Warming Fun 6: Ice Giants Make Manhattan Page 19

  ****

  Throughout the City, thousands of Stone-Coats working on various projects had stopped what they were doing to head for two Manhattan locations in Eastern Midtown and far-Northern Manhattan: towards the UN where there had just been another intolerable disassembly of a fellow Stone-Coat, and towards Northern Manhattan where some sort of showdown with the disassemblers was now anticipated by them.

  A few Stone-Coats were in the form of street-ready wheeled vehicles including construction equipment. Some were in insect-like forms designed to climb and repair buildings and bridges. Some from Central Park were in the form of dinosaurs. But most were in the form of massive fifty to a hundred foot tall Ice Giants. They were too big and heavy to be moved via human transportation. They marched.

  Though the NYPD worked to clear their way, the marching Stone-Coats caused traffic snarls on City streets and highways. When necessary the Ice Giants pushed or lifted and moved aside human vehicles to gain passage, though they tried to not harm any humans. As to bridges with weight restrictions the Ice Giants avoided those: they simply walked through rivers and harbors, often completely submerging themselves under water. Stone-Coats didn't breathe oxygen. And they would not be stopped.
