Viral had been hit hard against the wall but other than being temporary stunned he wasn’t badly hurt. Once he slid to the floor he looked to Yumi with a dazed glare, still appearing to be focusing on her for attack. As he slowly raised his paw up he pressed his claws into the dented metal, pulling himself up as he remained focused on Yumi. He looked like he was going to try to kill her no matter what he might try, but a hit like that meant the scientist was going to get frustrated over his failure to get close to her. He could sense the man’s frustrations as if it mattered above all else, even over his own health. If the man was unhappy with his actions then he was doing a poor job and had to do better, even if he had no will of his own or concern over his own health. He was going to take down everyone that opposed the scientist without any feeling or moral to what he was doing, he just knew he had to kill Yumi first because he was told to.

As Yumi approached him he was back on his feet, his eyes continuing to stare at her as his senses came back together. Despite all that she was saying he wasn’t processing any of it, her words coming out empty and meaningless to him. Just when he was about ready to go after Yumi again there was definitely a pause, but not because of what Yumi had tried to approach him in her familiar way. The scientist was familiar with his most powerful form and why not destroy them all as a near unstoppable monster? That would make tearing them apart so much more satisfying to watch. Unfortunately for Viral and the rest of them he was going to have to comply with it, even if he hadn’t transformed since he lost control of its power.

Freezing for a second his claws started to twitch as his energy rolled over him like electricity, raising his claws up to his head as the energy output grew rapidly. While he had a dull and sullen look before this time he looked like he was in a great deal of pain and anger, his eyes sharp and glowing lightly. Letting out a pained growl it very quickly turned vicious as the large horns started sprouting from his head, his claws pulling away from his head as they lengthened. Just as his energy was beginning to reach its peak he let out a sudden roar as it consumed his body in light, his body growing large and changing before finally the energy broke him free to reveal his monstrous form. Still buzzing with energy he let out a vicious snarl, his sharp eyes focusing on Yumi as he slowly moved around her as if acknowledging no matter what they did they were going to die at his claws.
