The first of its kind, this particular Virabot served as the main antagonist in The Virus - Animator vs Animation Shorts - Episode 1, The Chosen One's Return Animator vs Animation Shorts - Episode 2. Originally discovered in Noogai's computer out of nowhere, it is revealed to be an engineered weapon of chaos created and sent by the Dark Lord.
Appearance
ViraBot is a spider-shaped virus that has a dark red body, with a light red outline. The body is oval-shaped, with jaws with a small horn on either side of the jaws. Virabot has two back legs that it stands on and fights with, and also has two front arms that it fights with, and uses abilities with.
History
The Virus
The Virabot is discovered in Noogai's computer by the Second Coming and Noogai after they had finished an animation. Noticing his computer's high CPU temperatures, he discovered an app called Virabot.exe taking most of the CPU's power. Both Second Coming and Noogai try deleting and eventually destroying the app but it releases the virus inside. The virus quickly destroys Noogai's mouse cursor and easily defeated the 5 Sticks in combat and eventually trapping them in its webbing. As he prepares blades to kill the Sticks, the virus is knocked back by an explosion, revealing a portal and the chosen one emerges from it. Deciding to end the Stick's lives later, Virabot engages the mysterious being in a brutal battle.
The Chosen One's Return
Revealed as the Chosen One, Virabot engaged its creator in a highly destructive battle. First, it tries fighting the Chosen One but is outmatched in physical combat. It tries hitting him with its corrosive spines but it is found the Chosen One is immune to its corrosive nature. Knocked back by a flame of fire and wall of lasers, it retreats into the computer's windows and forms a giant version of itself with the computer's broken windows. Initially gaining the upper hand through sheer volume of attacks, the Chosen One forms an aura of power surrounding him and punches the computer's taskbar, purifying anything the Virus has created such as webbing and window pieces. The virus is found in a storage file and the Chosen One begins his final assault. He first punches and kicks the virus with enhanced speed and reflexes, then traps it in a tornado to hold it in places. Soon, the virus is rained upon by lightning, lasers, and fire. With one final punch, the Chosen One destroys the virus and it vanishes into nothing, ending its short-lived destruction.
The Flashback
It is shown in this flashback episode that the Virabot was originally created by the Dark Lord. The Chosen One witness an experiment involving a globe resting on a table. Upon contact, the globe and table dissolve into nothing. The Chosen One then imagines a possible future with an army of these viruses and the Dark Lord to command them and is unnerved. Upon deciding it was complete, the Dark Lord took its egg and loaded it into a gun aimed at a certain computer among others. The Chosen One saw it was Noogai's (ALANSPC) and despite remembering their bitter past, he relented firing it. The Dark Lord, however, wouldn't relent and was eventually tired of his friend's reconsideration. This relenting ended with the two former friends engaging in a short but vicious duel, ending with the Dark Lord's defeat but the cannon firing. As the Chosen One races after the egg, he is stopped by the computer screens while the egg lands in Noogai's computer, setting the scene for the second episode. In the end, the Virabot was defeated.
