Apollo wasn't quite sure if Onizuka was laughing at him at first, but his words sounded more like a compliment, so he let it slide. Apollo getting anything approaching a compliment was a rare thing.

"I've caught 'em before. Usually not when I'm in the water already though. You just have to be patient and move fast."

As if to demonstrate, he took a deep breath and slipped under the water, sitting on the bottom. A minute passed, then another. Staying there motionless like that, the fish cautiously began to return, not realizing that a predator was in their midst. Another minute passed, and the fish were swimming closer. Another minute and...

His hand shot out to grab a fish that had swum too close. His grip held this time and he burst out of the water with it flailing in his hand. He grinned at Onizuka.

"See? Told you."

Without waiting for an answer he shoved it into his mouth and bit its head off.
