Reacquainted
8/9/1947, Lafayette, Indiana
The Atlantean had been looking around towards everything right now when he took a deep breath, hating that he had been trapped by everything before he saw that bastard who had taken over his mind, it infuriated the man and made him rage as he walked over thanks to the fact that Bobo had still been there went and cold cocked the man with a rage that almost killed him.
“You bastard!” he snarled, going to kick him over and over before The Power Princess grabbed at his shoulder, “Enough.” she told him, “You had your kicks, we’ll make sure that he can’t hurt you or anyone else again.” She said and hearing that, Bobo sighed before he nodded, “Thank you.” he told them, looking around at everything that was there, “Where exactly am I?” he asked of them now.
“You’re in Lafayette, Indiana, where were you?” Doctor Spectrum had asked and hearing that, Bobo sighed as he looked around towards a abandoned car, “I live in Long Beach… all the way at the West Coast.” he explained and hearing that, the hero had looked around at everything, “We should set up some buses to head towards Chicago and anywhere else they’ve been.” he said towards them.
“I’ll be bringing Bobo back towards Long Beach, anyone else from that location?” he asked and hearing that, some of the others had lifted their own hands and said where they had lived, hearing that, the man created a bowl for the people to walk into, seats forming for them as he went and before to float up now, “I’ll see you all later!” he promised before they started to move now.
Bobo had been a bit tensed by the sudden rise of everything, but as he looked towards everything, the man started to realize why his cousin had been so happy to live up in the sky, making the man want to laugh which he really needed right about now as the other people and Doctor Spectrum had been smiling towards it all right now as they had been moving to their homes now.

8/9/1947, Bobo’s Home, Long Beach
Joseph had landed there now and as he looked around, The Atlantean had started to approach the house that was there now, he smiled towards it all now before Bobo had motion for him to follow, “Come on, you should at least get a drink or two.” the man said and hearing that, the man shrugged now as he went and started to walk in, “Wow, this is quite interesting.” he said out loud.
That made the Atlantean start to smirk towards it now as he went and opened the door and showing that there was a variety of pirate treasure there as well as some objects that made Joseph wonder what he was doing as they went and started to move towards the couch, observing everything before he had went to get a drink, looking it with some interest right now.
As the man went and checked over everything, the man had downed it with a smile now, shaking his head with a laugh now while Joseph got a bit worried, The Atlantean was about to assure that it was safe when he started to drink it in now with a smile which surprised him, looking around at everything when he saw that there was a portrait of Namor there with Bobo.
“You know Namor?” he asked of him and hearing that, the Atlantean chuckled, “If by, know Namor, you mean is he your cousin? Then yes.” Bobo told him as they went ahead and took shots somewhat, “So who was that man?” Joseph asked and that made Bobo sigh, “Sadly, it seems that he was Paul Destine, a man that had wanted to conquer our people once more.” he explained.
That made Joseph curious before Bobo spoke again, “You are going to make sure that he cannot hurt me or my family, correct?” and hearing that, Joseph nodded, “Don’t worry, we’ll make sure that nothing happens to any of them.” he told the Atlantean who grinned, “Then we should go ahead and start drinking!” he said as the man went to pour more drinks so they could enjoy themselves.
The Atlantean started to take some of the hardest drinks that they had now and that made the man curious now as he went to offer a few shot to the man but he had shook his head now, “Please no, I remember stuff that strong in Honolulu and–” “Honolulu? You mean Kailani?” he asked and hearing that, he smiled, “That’s the one.” he said now, making the man tense.
“It’s… it’s been a while.” he said now and hearing that, the Doctor nodded towards that now as the man sighed, “I can’t believe that you know her, small world.” he said, “Huh, well, with Namor living there, it wasn’t–” “Wait, did you just say that Namor and Kailani were living with each other?” he asked of them, “I thought that she hated him?” Bobo asked and hearing that, the Doctor nodded, confused.
“Huh, well to old relationships being reforged.” he said, lifting a glass and that made both of them smile towards each other now as the two of them had switched their glasses by accident and as Joseph took a deep swig now, the man had seemed to be stunned for a second as they went ahead and started to feel the effects as the night started to get a bit more fun right now.

Namor had been enjoying his time with his father and little brother when he had noticed that there was something which made the man pause, looking at the phone to answer, “Hello, who is this?” Namor asked, “Namor?” Bobo had asked, making the Prince surprised, “Bobo?” he asked with confusion, “Why are you contacting my father?” he asked, making the man pause.
“I wanted to tell him that Paul Destine had been heading to The West Coast, but The Squadron Supreme had contained him now.” Bobo had said and hearing that, the man looked to Leonard, “Excuse me, did you know a Paul Destine?” he asked, making his father pause, looking towards him with confusion now towards him, “Paul?I thought he died on The Oracle?” he had asked.
That made Namor confused, he had no idea about that and it made him a bit worried now as the Atlantean looked towards the facts that he had, “So he’s done for now?” he asked now and hearing that, the other man had seemed to nod now, “Yes, it looks like he wanted to invade Atlantis with an army of mind controlled civilians.” The man said, making Namor worried.
“How do you know all of this?” he asked of the man now which made the man sigh, “Because when I had found Vyrra by accident, the two of us had climbed onto his fishing boat and we connected.” The man said and hearing that, the young man had recalled Vyrra, he had been exiled by his grandfather when he was young, he would have been old then, for him to still be alive…
“Yes, he actually lives in The Boston Harbor.” He explained, making Namor surprised, “It’s like his summer home when he’s not in The Sea of Set.” Bobo said to him and hearing that, Namor had smiled, “Thank you, Bobo,” he said, “If you’re ever at the West Coast, I’d be happy to know so we could talk.” he said towards him now, making the other smile on the other line.
“Yeah, I’d like that.” He said now and hearing that now, Namor went and hung up now as he turned towards the human members of his family, “Do you by any chance know how I could contact Vyrra?” he asked of them now, making Leonard nod towards that which made the Atlantean smiled towards that right now as he thought on how he was going to talk to the man now.

Namor had been wearing a trench coat, his hair in a loose ponytail as the man had waited for Vyrra when he noticed that an elderly man who had been relying on a Talokanil Cane as he smiled towards him, “[Prince Namor, it has been a LONG time.]” Vyrra, the last Cloner of Atlantis, “[To what do I owe the pleasure?]” he asked of him, still in Lemurian which made the man sigh.
“I had always wondered, why did you continue with your experiments when you knew that they were going to be the cause of your exile?” he asked now and hearing that, the man sighed as he went and started to walk towards a seat now which made Namor look towards him now, still standing right now, “Because I could not help myself.” he told Namor now which made him sigh.
“I saw that there was a way to grow our people, to take a ancient art and use it for the better, growing organs to replace the damaged, a way to develop a new a inexhaustible food source, I saw a way to make things better and I ended up getting caught before I could do some real change.” he said now, making the Prince pause, “You wanted to do good, and people used it against you, to remove you.”
Tyrra sighed before he nodded towards him, “It is sad, but it is true, everyone has an enemy, we just don’t know them until they cut at our flesh.” he told Namor and hearing that, the man looked at the Cloner again before coming to an idea, “If your technology will be able to help our people in such ways, than I would be honored to lift your exile under a new name.” he said and that made Vyrra chuckle now.
“I don’t care for myself, not anymore.” The man said to him, “But if you could find a way to allow my work to help, if you could find it in your heart to bury me in Atlantis, then I will be happy to help in whatever way I possibly can during your current exile.” he told the prince and hearing that, Namor had decided that ht liked the man and would assist him with his burial when the time came.

Dorma had been walking through the halls of Atlantis when she saw that some of the spymasters that had been gathered by her and Opistho who was talking to Byrrah, making her think that they were going to have to work with clearing out his influence later on as the woman had seen that Krang had looked sad, “What’s the matter?” he asked, making the Warlord look to her.
“It seems that we’ll have to clean house.” The man said which made the woman glare, “And what exactly do we have to clean up?” she asked of the man who sighed, “It appeared that Vyrra had been contacting Prince Namor.” The Man explained and hearing that, the woman was shocked, “Vyrra? What was he–?” “It is the opinion of Crown Prince Byrrah that he is assembling a clone army.” he said to Dorma.
But that was not her opinion, she had seen plenty, but the idea of Namor doing such a heretical move had made The Lady of Atlantis look towards the Warlord who had taken a deep breath, “We will be sending a force to deal with The Prince, he needs to be dealt with properly.” The Man explained and that made the woman get worried now, “May we perhaps send Opistho?” she asked.
That made the Warlord pause before he smiled, “I think that Opistho would be the perfect individual for this situation.” Krang said, both of them smiling towards each other before the woman smiled back, both of them looking each other over with grins before they turned and each started to plan, thinking on how they were going to make sure that their goals was the one that came out.

Seth and Dara had told her that Opistho liked to stay here and as she had looked around at it all, seeing the soldiers who had been swimming above and below before they had seen that there was Opistho who had been talking to an artist now, if she recalled correctly, her name was Proctidae and she did a beautiful mural of Queen Korra and those that were murdered by Meranno.
The two of them had embraced with passion which made the woman surprised that Opistho had such feelings when he saw that she was looking at them now, “Can I assist you, Dorma?” he had asked of the woman, looking to Proctidae who had been looking towards them with a smirk and wiggling her eyebrows before she went to swim off now which made Dorma smile towards him.
“I was wondering if Krang had told you yet about the assignment?” she asked of the man and hearing that, the man shook his head, “No, what exactly would the Warlord send me to do?” he asked of the man and hearing that, Dorma had looked around before taking a breath and moving towards everything before the man followed afterwards now, “So then, what are we doing?” he asked.
“You are most likely going to ‘subtly’ be told to murder Namor for speaking to Vyrra outside of the water.” she had said and hearing that, the man sighed, “And why should I not do as much?” he had asked of the woman, “Because I know that you hate them both and he’s your best option to make sure that they’re NEVER in complete control.” the woman had warned of him.
That made Opistho pause at that before he sighed towards him, “Fine then, so what will I be doing?” he had asked and hearing that, the woman had smiled as she went ahead and gave the man a list that she had set up and as he man had looked over the information there, he went and started nod towards it all, “I have to admit, this is something I can do easily.” he said with a smile.
That made the woman smile now as she went and started to walk now, both of them observed everyone around them now before they had nodded, splitting up now as they had started to move towards the sight of Krang approaching which made the Lady start to hide now and that made the soldier nod as he went and started to talk to Krang and talk about what he wanted to plan now.

The woman had been sitting at the beach right now and as she had done so, the Beast Tamer had seen that there was a familiar face rising from the water, “Dorma!” she shouted, rushing into the water with a smile now and as she went to hug her lady, Dorma had sighed now as she looked towards her now, “Krang had sent Opistho to go and interrogate him.” she told him.
That made the woman pause right now before Nammu took a breath now when she had looked around, “Well he’s not here, he’s been in Boston…” she said to him, making the woman sigh, “Please call him, he needs to know what's gonna be happening tomorrow.” the noblewoman had explained and hearing that, Nammu sighed as she started to look at the house she lived in.
“Do… do you wanna come with me? I bet The Petersons and Namor would be happy to see you.” she said and hearing that, the woman smiled before taking a breath, “I am so sorry… but I need to return and make sure that Krang and Byrrah are not causing… trouble.” she had explained and hearing that, Nammu got a bit worried but she went and started to think on how she’d find him.

8/11/1947, Fort Erskine, Teton Wilderness
Namor had been back with his friends now and as he looked around towards everything, he had informed them about Vyrra and how he would be something that was… there, but he was also something that they didn’t need to worry about right now as The Atlantean looked towards the damage that had been done here, the little tunnel that his friends had created to rescue him.
Taking a breath right now, the Atlantean had seen that Zarda had been appearing now with a smile as she went ahead and hugged Robbie, Joseph, Skymax, Jim, Namor and it was making them all confused by that at the moment when Joseph had spoken, “Congratulations!” he said now and hearing that, Namor and Sk’ym’x saw that there was a ring on her finger which was exciting all of the humans there.
“Is that supposed to be something important? I thought that it was just a fashion statement?” she had asked and hearing that, the humans and synthezoid had looked towards them now, “You don’t have wedding rings where you’re from?” Joseph had asked and hearing that, the two of them nodded, “A piece of metal on your finger is not something that we really care about.” Namor said.
Zarda had smiled towards them right now before the woman had grinned widely now, “I was hoping that you would come to my wedding.” she had said towards them, hearing that, the pair had smiled, “I would be honored.” Sk’ym’x had said with Namor smirking, “If I am still exiled from Atlantis than I would be more than happy to go there with what I have.” he told them.
That made The Squadron all smile towards that now as Robbie spoke, “So then, this… Vyrra… is he dangerous?” The Speedster had asked of the man and hearing that, he shook his head now, “There isn’t anything too serious that we need to worry about, but there is something that we SHOULD be, and that is the fact that his appearance may cause his enemies to come after me.”
That made the Squadron look towards the man right about now before they had seen how there was a few things that made Namor smile towards him now as the woman started to explain every thing that she knew about it all right now and as Namor looked towards them all and with everything that he had on his mind, the idea of a wedding had seemed nice enough for their future.

Cass had been looking over everything that was there before the girl had seen that there was something which made The girl confused, there was some news about a mass hysteria going on in Lafayette, it made the girl confused when she saw that there was a photo that made the girl a bit surprised that there was a man there who had looked very familiar towards her.
He looked like that fella… Bobo, the man that hadn’t been at that house in Long Beach, the one that there were a few pictures that her sister had showed her, looking at it, she saw that there were familiarities between Namor and the man that had gotten caught on a photo, “Huh, is that an Uncle of yours?” The salesman had asked of her, making the girl look at him.
“Huh? No… she’s a friend of my sister.” Cass said towards them and hearing that, The Salesman had taken her money while she had examined everything and started to see his eyes and his jaw and made her a bit confused as she saw her reflection in a mirror and that made her start to think on why they would look so similar, maybe she would have to ask her sister about it.

8/12/1947, Blue Harbor, Maine
Namor had a trident he won in Lemuria across his lap as he sat on the beach, the waves getting just close enough tease his toes without touching him, it drove him mad how he could not touch it, but that was not what he cared about right now, instead he had cared about the fact that he was going to be attacked by his people and they were going to plan to take him out.
He stared towards the waves now, tapping the shaft of the item in his hands now, looking towards everything right now before the man saw that there was three heads that had been rising out from the water now, making him take a deep breath now as the Prince had looked towards everything, “So then, are you here to finally try and kill me or are you going to actually do the job?” he asked.
That made the group look towards the Prince before Opistho removed the helmet, keeping only the water mask on as he shook his hair, “We are only here to investigate, like Lady Dorma had told me.” Opistho said and hearing that, Namor smiled towards him now as he stood up now, “Very well then, what would you like to know?” he had asked of them as they prepared to talk now.
