Viral was trying hard to release himself from the consuming tar-like substance but he couldn’t get a grip on it. He tried his hardest but he could barely move his arms under the weight. He couldn’t breathe but that was hardly a problem for him; however, the toxins were certainly getting to him when they were right in his face. His natural instincts were being kicked into high gear, all of them telling him to get out or face death so concentrating on a plan was out of his understanding. Panicking and using way too much energy than he should he soon found himself being pulled out of the mass by the creature itself, barely managing to get a breath in before he was suddenly thrown through the air. Still panicking he flailed his limbs, the world spun around him but the sight of Yumi remaining focused. Reaching out to her he found that she wasn’t fast enough as the dam wall soon passed him and very quickly he was heading down towards the shallow depths below. There was no way to stop this, he couldn’t fly like the others and Aito wasn’t coming to save him so he was as good as doomed. Trying to do his best to brace for impact he landed in the water with a hard smack, sinking straight to the bottom with a solid thump against the shallow lake bed. The creature watched as Yumi ultimately failed to catch her friend, watching as she instead watched as he fell to what would be certain death for any other creature. How horrible that must be, to watch your friend suffer. Hissing a laugh as it watched her stare down at her friend’s possible demise it watched as she instead turned around, looking like she was trying to threaten it. Staring at her as she came speeding towards it in an odd fashion it let out a hiss, moving immediately to attack her but when the soundwave hit it instead shook and became unable to move before it was once again slashed at. The goop was torn away at the longer it remained unable to move, its hisses soon turning into growls as it decided to instead drop into a liquid state and go underground. [i]”You annoying little creature! You should never had come!!”[/i] Immediately it started to throw itself up in spikes at Yumi on the spot, its form solid as to try and pierce Yumi.
