Viral didn’t think it was unusual that the Beastmen wouldn’t be possible to track, it was already difficult to tell whether they were in the right building if it wasn’t for the fact that the Elite that was supposed to be guarding the place had found them so quickly meaning he was already nearby by the time they broke in. It must’ve been somewhere around here, but they couldn’t keep going around in circles either. If the Beastmen were going to be anywhere it was probably down underground somewhere to keep them safe from invaders who would assume anything other than the place being a simple base. The only reason the Elite was willing to admit that there was Beastmen here was because Viral himself was part of the project even if the man was determined to call him a simple tool. Looking to Yumi when she spoke to him he sighed, rolling his eyes. “You’re getting worse at this storytelling gag. I don’t need to be hearing you talking like you’re on a television show…”

While Viral was pretty annoyed at them he still knew he wasn’t going to be able to do all of this by himself. He lacked in a lot of fighting techniques that other fighters would have and there was probably no chance that the Beastmen would want to go with him alone. He probably looked terrible already and was only hoping he was going to shake it off and look much better by the time they found these Beastmen. He probably took more hits than he should’ve, but it was definitely something he could show little care about for now when he was used to this kind of punishment.  Looking to Takeshi he narrowed his eyes before looking away. Takeshi was way too excited over this mission, in fact they were all acting like children. The worst part about it all was they were all better than him at fighting and winning battles while he was just getting lucky so far with reckless enemies. “I don’t care if you and your brother want to fight the next Elite, it’s childish to call ‘dibs’ on a warrior’s fate…” he spoke lowly, feeling pretty close to just punching Takeshi in the face, “I doubt they’ll come with us too just because we took down a few guards. Just because you said something happened doesn’t make it spectacular. If it was me I would be looking for power and leadership and I don’t see that in any of you”.

While he didn’t believe he was going to be worth the title of leader he was still going to try and take out the higher command so that they might feel they had no choice but to come to their side. There were low chances of it ever being successful, but if that didn’t work then he was probably going to have to call in Aito to ‘show off’ his own power to convince them to come over to their side. This was never going to work. There was already dread filling his face as he was inevitably starting to lose hope that this plan would ever work by the time he finished his thought. Clenching his teeth as he briefly stared down at the floor he glanced up when he noticed the change in the setup, looking around at first before moving on ahead quicker. Investigating further down the hallways he eventually found what he thought was a possible lead, but to anyone else it just looked like a large elevator. Running on up to it he stopped right in front of the doors, looking up and down them before to the panel. It looked like it needed a keycard of some sort, but that was one thing they didn’t have. Growling, he quickly hit the panel with his fist before slipping his claws inbetween the thin gap between the doors, pulling hard to try and get them to open.
