"Aha. Well, the Loch Ness Monster is a nature spirit that protects the Loch... Is the same thing going on here? Then the question is, what do we need to do to appease her?"
Rains of seaweed and frog spawn, damaged property and improbable drownings on dry land - what is going on in Baltimore? Team Magic go to investigate and discover the city is rather... crabby.

Plot Summary
A contact from a small coven in Baltimore reaches out to Topaz for help with some odd events going on in the city. She, Amanda, Megan, and Clea go to help, assuming it will be a simple spirit thing, but it turns upside down when they attempt to preform a cleansing ritual. The rest of X-Force comes in to help investigate, and things get weirder when it starts raining and flooding the area, and giant crabs start invading the city.
While the X-Men come in to deal with the crabs, X-Force tries to get to the bottom of what's causing this. They discover, with some help from Namor, Alani, and Meggan, that an angry water spirit has decided to attack the city as an act of revenge for their lack of care toward nature. X-Force determines, after diplomatic talks break down, that the best way to appease the spirit is to sacrifice a local, particularly anti-nature politician. They manage to placate it, and Gabe and Jubiliee find a new home for it at the local aquarium while the X-Men finish off the crabs.

Trivia
In the late 2000s, Frito said, "I'm going to destroy my hometown with giant crabs." She finally made that dream come true in 2021.
Namor may or may not go back to the aquarium from time to time to "visit" the nature spirit.
