Octopus Man was sitting on the ground with his hand to his chin, in deep thought. "What are you thinking about?" Kookakoo asked. "I'm wondering what I want for dinner today." he replied.
"I think I know you guys well enough to say, biscuits, right?" Nalay said, looking down at Octopus Man. "Those are so last chapter." Octopus Man replied.
"Yeah, how about biscuits?" Kookakoo suggested. "NOW YOU'RE TALKING!" Octopus Man shouted.
"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, FOCUS ON THE TRIUNE!" Floran shouted angrily. "Didn't you just say you gave up?" Brazilian Bug Boy asked.
Floran looked down and replied, "I honestly don't know what to think anymore. I can barely hole on to my sanity at this point."
"I'll just suffocate the Triune." Lusha said, reaching out her harm. "NO CAN DO!" the yellow figure shouted, snapping his finger. Lusha then fell to the ground, coughing. "WHAT DID YOU JUST DO!" Cutecumber yelled at the Triune, looking down at Lusha.
"I reversed the attack because I'm just cool like that." the yellow figure responded.
As Lusha coughed, she gripped her neck, trying to breath. She then casually stood up and laughed before saying, "Nah, I'm just joking. I don't need oxygen."
"THAT'S IT!" Octopus Man shouted, standing back up quickly. "What's it?" Floran asked. "I don't know why Lusha pranking you reminded me of this, but I have a new fusion!" he explained.
Goose Man looked surprised. "A fusion? And what is it?" he asked. "I have to eat Catalina and gain her powers." Octopus Man replied, looking over at Goose Man.
"But she's in college!" Boomerang shouted. "Yeah, but she just graduated." Octopus Man replied. Catalina then teleported right next to him, wearing a cap and gown. "What a smart doggy." Octopus Man said, petting Catalina.
"Can't you just, you know, tell Catalina to transform into something? Why do you have to eat her?" Floran asked with narrowed eyes.
"Oh yeah. Oh well, I'm hungry." Octopus Man responded. With that, he picked up Catalina and took a bite out of her flesh. Catalina yelped in pain.
"I CAN FEEL THE POWER COURSING THROUGH MY VEINS!" he shouted. Octopus Man's hair went white, and that was it. "BEHOLD! MY NEW FORM, OCTOLINA!" he shouted.
Kookakoo pouted and said, "No fair! I thought I was the one who got to fuse with you." Octopus Man looked shocked and said, "Oh no! I've upset Kookakoo!"

"WHO CARES! JUST USE YOUR NEW POWERS ALREADY!" Floran yelled. "Not until I apologize to Kookakoo." Octopus Man said. "AH! ENOUGH!" Floran yelled, before picking up Catalina. "I'll play along if it means I can win!" she shouted before taking a bite out of Catalina. Catalina yelped in pain once again.
Floran's eyes widened in a mix of shock and pain. She grabbed her head from the overwhelming power. "FLORAN'S GOING TO DIE! DO SOMETHING OCTOPUS MAN!" Emberlyn yelled in fear.
"Octopus Man?" Emberlyn asked, turning around to see him giving Kookakoo a box of peppermint flavored biscuits. "My humblest apologies." he said. Kookakoo's upset face turned into a bright smile again as she took the box. "YAY! THANK YOU!" she shouted.
Floran fell to her knees as she held her head, barely holding on to consciousness. Brazilian Bug Boy stepped back and asked, "What's happening to her eyes?"
"It looked like they are changing colors." Cutecumber replied.
Floran's eyes turned yellow, and the entire platform around them started to shake, her hair went bright yellow, and her aura strengthened tenfold. She let out a sigh and stood up, no longer feeling any pain. She blanky stared past the tower and at the Triune.
"She got upgrades." the green figure stated.
"I DID TOO, REMEMBER!" Octopus Man shouted, pointing at his white hair.
The 4th floor of the massive tower opened a window and began firing flaming arrows. Goose Man immediately aimed his hanger, and shot bullets at them, but each arrow had a tiny forcefield around them that deflected the bullets.
Malum woke up, rubbing her eyes again. "Huh? Where are we again?" she asked. When she looked up to see the flaming arrows, she passed out once more.
"THIS IS IT! I KNOW I WAS SCARED BEFORE! BUT I'M EVEN MORE SCARED NOW!" Boomerang yelled.
When the arrows came very close, Floran swiped them all away with just a quick movement of her arm. The group was in shock, and Nalay couldn't help but let out a laugh. "Now Flory got serious." she stated. Floran looked up at the tower, completely emotionless.
Meanwhile, on the third platform, Mr. Fluffypants was frozen in fear. "S...s...she got even s...scarier." he stuttered. "Oh, for the love of god, stop crying for once in your life. She's not even that strong, I could take her easily. "Rit stated confidently."
Mr. Fluffypants shook his head vehemently. "NO! SHE IS SO STRONG SHE WILL KILL YOU JUST BY LOOKING AT YOU!" he yelled.
"Who do you think I am? I can kill anyone who looks at me the wrong way! You're lucky you're still alive!" she shouted harshy.
The Number 7, as always, stood still, not uttering a word.
"Let's open more windows!" the blue figure shouted, pointing to the tower. Some more windows opened, and they fired arrows, bullets, cannonballs, butcher knives, and ravenous wolves.
"NOW WE ARE FOR SURE DYING!" Boomerang cried.
As soon as all of the weapons neared them, Floran reached out her hand, and fired a blast of energy that was big enough to engulf and destroy all of them.
"SEE! SHE'S DEFINITELY GOING TO KILL ME!" Mr. Fluffypants cried. "Good." Rit responded bluntly.
Octopus Man crossed his arms and looked away angrily. "Hmph! Floran's not letting me use my brand-new form.” he said. Kookakoo patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be able to use it next chapter."
"Yeah, true." Octopus Man replied. He then pulled out a chess table out of nowhere and said, "In the meantime, let's play solitaire."
"I LOVE SHARKS AND MINNOWS!" Kookakoo replied, sitting next to Octopus Man, getting ready to play.
Lusha walked up to them and said, "Playing soccer I see."
