This is spoilers. Please watch Pink Corruption or turn back to avoid being spoiled.

## Beginning

The trio arrives outside the inn, then Pentellow thinks that they should ask everyone in Poly to find Pyrare. Cube then guesses this as a good start, Iris then realizes that their heroes are not there to accompany them at that time. Pentellow then gets shocked with almost no reaction.

Then Cube implies that he asked their heroes to teach Cyan to defend himself. Pentellow's shock then carries away, making her in neutral state, Cube hopes that it's okay, then Iris agrees. But they're possibly doing something to occupy themselves this time.

Pentellow then asks them to rush and ask shapes around, somewhere near Paradise Forest, a bored Orange says that Levitation is easy, then mentions them as hands in their second form. Tsavorite then utters that Cyan should imagine himself for something to pick up.

Then Cyan is about to use his ability but after a while, he then stops, but still uses it. Orange then asks what he picked up, Cyan then shows them by pointing with his feet, when the duo turned back to look, the duo was amazed. Cube then sees what Cyan has used. (and somehow video glitch oof-) then a random shape says a dilemma, the trio then investigates what was going on.

Two shapes that aren't a citizen or flower runs away from the Poly Forest, the blue cube warns everyone that there is a corrupted flower running around Poly Forest, the blue circle then warns that they must 'retreat' to their homes. Cube then suggests that Pyrare can wait, but the flower is a real problem, and they should ask about that, during that, the 'hero trio' flew near their caretakers.

Cube then excuses to the two running blue shapes, Cube then mentions that they've been hearing about this flower and they're caretakers, to be surely that they can help them against the flower. The blue cube then agrees and orders them to follow him, then the Intro starts.

## Middle

The blue circle was glad that they've met the 3 caretakers when the flower came out of nowhere. The blue cube then says the flower has intentions to attack any shape that has any parts of the Tree of Life with them. Cube then questions if the Heroes are the only shapes that's part of the Tree of Life.

Cyan then denies this question but then jogs his memory that Cube and Cyan are connected, so Cube as a caretaker is part of the Tree of Life as well. All of them reacts to this making themselves proud. The blue circle accepts this but says that it's not just heroes and caretakers.

The blue square voices it that any shape that can fight \*contains\* the fragment of the Tree of Life. Cube, Cyan and Pentellow gets shocked, then the blue square voices it yet again that Shapes that fight that are organized in certain groups depends on their skill level.

The blue circle continues to say that with every member of a group, they form a full piece to give to the hero who owns the color. Then reveals their name and intro (The blue circle is Marcle and the blue square Squadril), Marcle then mentions that there are only three members of each group, but the flower has corrupted their leader, but a caretaker named **Pyrare** was able to help them escape.

The three caretakers get shocked in awe, Pentellow in shock that they had been looking for him since yesterday, then Iris has a plan to find them. Iris then avers that they should split up, (due there are 5 shapes and 3 heroes) and that 'Group A' (Iris, Cube, Orange, and Cyan) will find Pyrare while 'Group B' (Pentellow, Tsavorite, Marcle, and Squadril) frees the Chipzel leader, the Chipzel members then agrees with this plan.

Squadril then shows how their leader was attacked and being chased by the flower, so being, there would be a chance to have found Pyrare or encounter the flower. Iris then agrees if it is the flower, Cube and Iris are ready. Squadril then glances down and sees Cube's virus, and tells him to be extra careful. Cube then hides it.

Then it shows the 'Group A' walking on a path, Iris utters that Cube has to be on guard, they'll never know what'll pop out, Cube then gets unsure, Iris then notices and Cube says that he is a bit rusty on how to fight, Iris then sympathizes this and Cube will be alright. Cube then utters that shapes that fight has weapons, but the four of them don't know they're being watched.

Iris then says that it's either one that holds or control, Cube then guesses this that he's possibly the control, then hides the virus promptly, Iris then says that Pyrare isn't the only caretaker with that, Iris then stops the three as he notice that there is someone.

Then the story promptly proceeds with 'Group B', Pentellow then asks what makes their leader... the leader, then Squadril tells that she was the one who found them when the first Pink Corruption started (a reference to Just Shapes & Beats) then shortly after, she called the group, Chipzel**.** (I'm really tired to do these)

Pentellow then asks about her name then Marcle loudly said it to be "Purpex” in shock, then Squadril then gets frustrated, why she'd had to be that loud, then Marcle agrees and Purpex is promptly right 'there', then all of them gets shocked as they see Purpex, having to be corrupted. Squadril asks if she's there, Purpex then disagrees.

Then all of them get shocked, and shouted words at the same time, and infected citizens appear and it appeared to be an ambush. Purpex then asks them if they're ready to join them. Tsavorite then disagrees then tells Pentellow to let him fight Purpex alone, then Pentellow agrees, but advises him to be more careful. Pentellow draws her bow and the Chipzel members get their weapons ready as well, and Tsavorite gets excited and he and the corrupted Purpex fight.

The battle starts with big hexagons on the corners, when the 3rd one is about to appear, another one appears on the center, appeared to be a host, it shot many mini-hexagons and more hexagons appear on the sides, then more hexagons appeared on the sides, letting Tsavorite go near the center.

Purpex appears then bounces off the ground, shooting walls of hexagons, and whilst, shooting mini-hexagons, similar to Cube's counterpart, Purpex's uncorrupted tries to resist, but the corruption regains back control.

A hollow giant hexagon appears on the front shooting mini-hexagons and again, (similar to Cube) the hexagon walls start going to their right, after a while, the hexagon walls disappear and Purpex appears inside of it, and having the hexagons on the corners again, but having good hope, Tsavorite charges his laser and uses it against Purpex fully uncorrupting her.

After uncorrupting Purpex, Pentellow then congratulates Tsavorite for uncorrupting her, Marcle then gets happy with Purpex being back, Purpex, tired, asks them what happened, Squadril then tells that Tsavorite saved Purpex, and Marcle declares that Pentellow owns the hero, then mentions it's finally time to give them the fragment of the Tree of Life.

Purpex then gets confused and remembers again, and the Chipzel Group redoes their intro again, but instead with Purpex on their side, and honors them to give them the piece, the fragments then goes to Pentellow, forming a full piece of a fragment, making 'Group B's work done, Pentellow then wonders how the others are doing.

In 'Group A's area, they are encountered by the corrupted flower, then reveals himself to be Lycanthropy, and greets Cubic that they had never seen each other in such a long time, promptly shocking Cube and allowing his virus to get larger.

Iris asks if he's responsible for corrupting the Chipzel leader, Cube then asks if Lythorus is there, Lycanthropy then disagrees that his name is Lycanthropy, not Lythorus, and throws in a few spikes to attack them, but Cube was forced to use his powers against him.

Cube then grabs all of them and throwing them away, promptly shocking the group, Cube then tells Iris that Lythorus is his friend, and while knowing his moves, he suggests he and Cyan can handle it. Iris then asks what he's going to do, Cube thinks without harming him, while he can hold him down while Iris and Orange seal him.

Iris then realizes that it can work because they've done that to the monster, then agrees, then asks Iris to be ready, and requires Cyan for his help, then Lycanthropy tries to get Cubic to come out, then Cube asks Cyan if he's ready, then starts using his powers to summon gears, throwing them at Lycanthropy's hands, disabling his attacks.

Lycanthropy still has hopes by summoning few spikes without the need to use his hands, however, Cube and Cyan dodge the single attack but almost gets hit by the second attack, Cube then uses his claw to grab Lycanthropy, but fails, but tries again with Cyan's 'levitation' to hold him down, making Cube utterly successful.

Cube then commands Iris and Orange to seal him, then starts the sealing procedure quickly, then Lycanthropy gets stuck inside temporary, and both Iris and Cube shake on it.

Though, their moment is abruptly interrupted by someone's applause heard from a distance, and comments to the 'newbies' about their powers. The sudden voice surprises Cube and Cyan, but does not affect Iris and Orange as they smile at the unknown figure. Cube and Cyan do not reply due to their shock as they gaze at the giant figure. With the unknown shape's shadow casting upon them, they question their surprised look, asking if it's due to their appearance.

## Ending

It is revealed that the unknown voice comes from a giant, monster-like shape with a Pyramid head; a yellow Hero also hovers behind him. The giant figure seems confused by Cube's frozen state, anxiously asking if he broke him. Iris nears Cube, explaining that the figure is Pyrare. Staring at his fellow caretaker in shock, Cube exclaims in disbelief and surprise. Iris then introduces Pyrare to Cube. The tall monster replies with light-hearted in his dialogue, saying it was nice to meet them too, then introduces the yellow Hero behind him, who's name is Gold. The yellow Hero seems reluctant, continuing to hide behind him. Pyrare urges him to greet the others, to which Gold replies with a single, bitter "Hello."

Not long afterwards, Pentellow is heard shouting Pyrare's name; she appears, running to join the group. Pyrare greets her, saying he's then glad to see her in good health. Cube then questions Pentellow why she didn't tell him he was a monster. Pentellow notices her mistake and apologizes to Cube that she didn't tell him about it; Cube, however, still seems a little disappointed in her mistake. Pyrare reassures Cube, saying he understands why they are afraid of him, but then mentions that not all monsters are evil and that he wouldn't hurt any of them. He then gleefully picks up the three caretakers to their surprise. Though, the heroes seem happy in his presence, with the exception of Gold, who seems grumpy as always.

As Pyrare walks off with the caretakers still in his arms, he tells them that he has a lot to explain. Pentellow then asks where was he and what was he doing, to which he replies that he was doing some research and since all the three caretakers and heroes are with him now, he can now tell them about it. As they head off, Cube finally smiles as the "To Be Continued" card appears with a pair of shapes appearing in each corner of the screen, the shapes representing the Heroes and their Caretaker with the colors and appearance.
