Smells Like Team Spider

Beerain attempts to turn the Spider Riders against each other, using a special flower.

Full Recap
Hunter is quick to volunteer when the Village of Fragrant Blooms calls on the Spider Riders for help against an Invectid assault. Corona and Igneous are overwhelmed by the beauty of the flowers the town is famous for but Hunter is too keyed up to notice. The trio find the village abandoned save for one girl, Rain.

Seeking the villagers, they follow her directions to a cave in which the Blossoms of Darkness grow. The blossoms turn Corona and Igneous into enemies until Hunter and Shadow destroy the flowers. But it's not until Hunter literally stops to smell the roses that he is able to help his friends and the village overcome an attack by Beerain's drones. There truly is strength in beauty.
