Sparrow managed to pull himself out of the moss.
Crawling out, coughing up rocks and the moss itself.
"Gosh-What was that stuff. . .!"
It felt like he had died, but he was on half a heart so he probably got lucky; Real luckily.
Though something felt different. . . There was a ringing in his ears, he felt something dripping from his face and he felt like throwing up.
Sparrow crawled towards a water source he could hear and felt his hands slip into water.
But. . .
In his reflection, his eyes were no longer brown and his face dripling with that strange liquid/moss that dragged him and tried to drown him. . .
But. . .
He felt different.
He felt. . . Powerful.

By now Pix had finished his base/house, he was now heading to Scar's base to talk about installing something so he could call Zloy and Lyarrah.
They'd be interested to know that Sparrow wasn't going crazy and that there were hybirds here.

"Scar?"
"UP HERE!"
By now, Scar had a full runway finished and was now high up in the sky, with a support system as he hung in the sky to install the tower and get them some signal to contact to contact Zloy and Lyarrah.
"BE CAREFUL!"
"I WILL!"
That was a lie; Pix sighed, nervous watching Scar lowered himself to fix part of the tower.
"Pixlriffs."
Huh?
Pix turned around-
?!
"Sparrow. . .?"
Limping towards him, was Sparrow!
"Sparrow?! What. . . Happened to you. . .?"
Sparrow smiled, holding his hand as that shulk covered his hand.
"Oh this? I'm not too sure, but it sure makes me feel very Powerful."
Pixlriffs backed away.
"What do you think Pixlriffs?"
Pixlriffs couldn't answer.
How could he?
He felt like he was back on Empires.
Back when Cub had gotten possessed, when he attempted to spread the shulk across the server until they managed to save him.
"Pix?"
Scar rested his hand on Pixlriffs's shoulder, noticing strange moss on his runway,"Gotta clean up that later, but you look freaked out-", "I have to leave.", Pix was freaking, Scar could see how freaked out he looked despite how calm he sounded, Pixlriffs tried to walk away,"No, no; I can't do that again.", "Hey, hey. What's gotten into you?", Pixlriffs didn't answer, all he did was hid his face in his hand.
. . .
"Let me clean this up and I'll take you back to your base, calm down and we can talk."
"Okay, Okay. . ."

"Really?!"
Pixlriffs nods,"He was. . . Covered in this, Shulk. . .", Gem hummed, Martyn looked concerned, Pixlriffs took a sip of his drink.
"That definitely doesn't found good."
"No: No it doesn't."
Sounds like Pixlriffs had seen this before, though Martyn knew he has,"Looks like we'll have to find them and find out what is happening to him.", Gem nods, she rushed out to let the others know.
Martyn rested his hand on his shoulder,"You gonna be okay?", "Yeah, I just. . . I've seen this happen before and it uh, it was just stressful.", Martyn nods.
. . .
Understandable.
Cub was a Vex, possessed by shulk; If they hadn't acted quick he might have destroyed the server and killed them all.
He would know.
He was The Old Sherrif.
