Viral knew how much time he needed to fire off a beam, but maybe a few seconds was overestimating it. It would take a little more than that to charge it up. Trying to clear his head he listened to Yumi, frowning when she wanted to use herself as a distraction for him to fire up his beam. The problem with that was the possibility of hitting Yumi by accident because he would need to be so far away. He was aware of how hot it could get whenever he fired it off and if Yumi happened to be near it she could get seriously burned. Here’s hoping he wouldn’t miss the creature and instead obliterate Yumi. Growling lowly as his own confidence wavered he looked up and off in Aito’s direction. That thing was moving in again, probably to finish off Aito. Growling lowly he gasped lightly when Yumi immediately went straight for the creature again, watching as she immediately tried to get ahead of it and attack the thing before it got to him. Running after her to try and get into a good position he raised his paws to attempt a charge up, staring at her as she moved to get at Aito he gasped when she was instead smacked away. He couldn’t stand back like this, he was just placing everything on Yumi and endangering her. The creature was pretty amused by Yumi’s attempts, it was pretty funny how they were all willing to help each other when it put them at even greater risks. Laughing as it struck her again the mass slowly moved towards her, almost taunting her as the other part of him moved to smother Aito. This was too simple, it was strange how these creatures managed to take down the experiment on that other planet if they were this easy to hit around. Barely wobbling when Yumi threw some blasts at it it simply hummed, shifting as it moved towards her again. [i]”Well aren’t you a pain in my side, but no matter. I’ll just kill you now…”[/i] Just as it was about to strike again it was instead splattered across the other way as Viral came in with a flying punch. Well that was just infuriating, being ambushed like that. Forming quickly again it immediately threw a limb at Viral, getting caught at first before it became semi-liquid based and tried to smother Viral. [i]”Filthy, insignificant creatures! Your energy does not affect me!"[/i]
