"Why are we going to the beach?" I ask.

"Because, we've gotten reports of undersea invaders, and Ozpin thinks we can handle it." Scott says, cleaning his glasses with his eyes screwed shut. 

"Yeah, okay... but we care because...?" I ask, once more. Nobody really gives a good answer. At least an answer I think is good. Whatever. I look out the window, and see a huge wall of water. The airship we're in quickly pitches upwards, with help from Ororo. I, tired of waiting, press the button that lowers the loading bay of the airship and dive into the water, after grabbing a breathing apparatus. I splash into the water, and swim around, looking for any of these undersea invaders. Of course when I get slapped around by things swimming a bit too fast for me, I feel silly.

But I see an opening. I grab one of the swimmers by the leg. Out of instinct I bite into it, blood clouding the water as the undersea invader tries to kick me off. Suddenly, out of nowhere, I'm shoved out of the water by an impossibly strong current. I slam into the side of a building, leaving me a little dazed.

"Stand down, beast." A rough voice says. 

"No, I'm not Beast, that's the other guy." I quip. I am then slapped across the face with a trident, pissing me off a LOT more than I thought it wouldc, leaving me growling, my claws extending unconsciously.

"You dare interrupt Namor? King of Atlan--" Namor starts, before being interrupted by me leaping onto him and tearing into Namor. I scratch, claw, and bite the guy. He eventually kicks me off, but I don't relent. I feel my animalistic rage take over, momentarily losing myself in my bloodlust, but I manage to keep a fraction of myself in control. Thank god this Namor guy is durable and a decent fighter. Any other person would be dead by now.

After... I don't know how long, I feel myself getting held back. It gets hard to move, and I see a pink glow surrounding Namor. I look down to see that I am also encased in pink. A sense of calm floods my body, all my rage melting away.

"Easy, Vic." Jean says in my mind. I forgot Jeannie has the whole telepathy/telekinesis deal. 

"RELEASE ME FROM THIS!!!" Namor shouts. Jeez I did a number on that guy. His body is covered with claw marks and bite marks. His little ankle wings are scarred and missing feathers. I cough up a few of the feathers. Ah.

I look up to see an airship hovering above us. Ozpin gracefully leaps out of it, and lands thanks to some invisible barrier thing. 

"Namor, lovely to meet you." Ozpin says.
