“Shut up!”

A tidal wave of water appeared in the air and splattered the alphas and betas, washing half of them bellowing out of their seats.

The lines turned on each other. Yellow eyes, dripping fangs, lethal claws, flames, water, vines, and all the powers at their fingers clashed in a furious mob of growls and snarls.
