Episode three of Matango (2020) reveals that Neo Hedorah (Land Form) was on the island and infected just like Neo Kong by the Matango.

Plot (Story)
Meanwhile with the other group, they found a cave to hide in for the night as it was night time. [Barnes] “It seems weird.” [Professor Tayla] “Why?” [Barnes] “It seems like time passes slowly here. Like how it turns into nightfall now only a few hours later. It was like 5:00 PM when we got here.” [Lucas] “He’s right. Maybe we’re in a different timezone?” [Professor Tayla] “Maybe but it shouldn’t feel this slow here. They all looked outside and looked at the pretty stars. [Professor Tayla] “I wonder how the others are doing. I hope they're safe.” Lucas looked at Tayla after she said that and smiled at her as he went back to looking at the pretty stars once more. Meanwhile in a mountain, Neo Kong was sitting at the edge of a huge cave as he looked at the pretty stars in the sky, wondering how. How can he get off this island? However, meanwhile further in the cave that Tayla and the rest are in, there is a hiding small titan that turned its head around as its red eye glowed.

Back with us, we decided to open the doors of the Monarch Outpost and looked inside the dark hallway. [Me] “Ladies first?” Lauren, Velma, and Ryselle all looked at me after I said that and glared at me. [Me] “Fine. I’ll go first.” I went first as Velma and the rest followed behind. This place was covered in vines and blood. Some places had holes in them and we followed no dead bodies anyway, except for one where a guy was missing a head. Looks like he shot himself with a shotgun in the mouth. Velma made sure that Ryselle didn’t see that. We heard the building groaning and sparks flying everywhere or at random times. Then Velma noticed something. When the sparks flew in front of her, she noticed a figure of some sort. It looked big and when the sparks did it again, it got closer! [Velma] “Ahhhh!” She screamed as Me and Lauren got in front of her and pointed our guns at the person. It was an Half Infected Human! [Half Infected Human] “Hello new comers.” [Me] “Stay back man!” [Lauren] “I don’t want to shoot you!” [Half Infected Human] “It’s ok. I’m here to help you.” He hands us a notebook with a bent cover and stuff. [Half Infected Human] “This should tell you everything you need to know about the island and what to do. Until then, tell my brother I said hi.” We were looking over the notes while he was talking and [Me] “Brother? Are you-” He was gone. He just slightestily vanished. We took the note notebook and walked out the Monarch Outpost as the sun shine on us. [Lauren] “Daytime already?” [Me] “You mean Day 1.” Meanwhile with Tayla’s group, they woke up and walked out of the cave until (Unknown Creature Roar) They turned in fear and looked at the cave. [Lucas] “What the hell was that?” [Professor Tayla] “I don’t know but I’m surprised that it didn’t attack us when we were sleeping.” [Barnes] “Agreed.” Barnes ready his weapon as the creature stomps its feet closer and brust out of the cave as Tayla, Lucas, and Barnes face was in shock mode. It was Neo Hedorah (Land Form)!!! His theme music plays as he sniffs at Tayla and the rest and roars at them.

[Barnes] “I got this!” [Tayla] “No, Barnes! Wait!” Neo Hedorah tail smacked Barnes away as he fell to the ground and dropped his gun. [Lucas] “Barnes!” [Tayla] “You idiot!” Neo Hedorah roared as Lucas and Tayla rushed to Barnes. Neo Hedorah chased them down. Lucas got to the gun first and fired at Neo Hedorah as he backed up and covered the incoming fire with his arm. Lucas kept going until he ran out of bullets and Neo Hedorah noticed him. Tayla grabbed the pistol from Barnes pants and fired at Neo Hedorah to push him back more into the cave until she threw a bomb in the air and shot it to blow up the entrance so that Neo Hedorah was trapped inside. You can hear Neo Heodrah banging on the rocks and boulders as Lucas and Tayla picked Barnes up and walked away until it wasn’t over yet. Neo Hedorah burst out of the cave and rushed towards Tayla and the rest. [Tayla] “Shit!” Tayla and the rest rush towards the forest as Neo Hedorah follows.

Tayla, Lucas, and Barnes ran and ran and ran like they never ran before! They ran deeply in the forest but that didn’t stop Neo Hedorah from chasing them. He would knock and make most of the trees fall in his path as he continued to keep chasing them. Some of the trees in his path would get sucked inside him and he grew a little bit bigger until they all split up in three different ways. Neo Hedorah chased Tayla until he lost her. He looked around for a bit before leaving as she came out of her hiding spot and ran to find the others. Meanwhile with Barnes, he tripped on a rock and fell down a small hill as he landed hard and dropped his gun. He picked it up and it had some slime on it as the slime dropped from above and he looked up as he screamed in horror. Meanwhile with Tayla, Tayla heard Barnes scream as Lucas bumped into her. [Tayla] “Ow!” [Lucas] “Ow! Sorry. Tayla?” [Tayla] “Lucas? Oh, thank goodnesses!” Lucas and Tayla hugged each other for a second before [Tayla] “Wait, if that wasn’t you before then. *Gasp* Oh no! Barnes!” [Lucas] “I think I know where he is. Follow me!” Tayla followed Lucas where they got to where Banres killed a lone Matango alone and his gun was empty. [Lucas] “Woah.” [Tayla] “What the hell is that thing?” [Barnes] “I don’t know. I don’t know.”

Back with us, I was still reading in the notebook about this place as we all set up camp. [Me] “Ok, guys! Remember those mushroom people that attacked us earlier?” [Lauren] “Yeah.” [Velma] “Why?” [Me] “Well, in this notebook, they are called Matango. We'll be on an island called Matango Island. Blah blah blah. Ah ha! Right here!” [Ryselle] “What is it daddy?” [Me] “There are five stages if you get infected by Matango. One: Signs of Coughing and Itching near the wound mark. Two: Bumpy skin. Three: Lost of free will. Four: Signs of Murder or cannibalism. And Five: Infected person turns into Matango.” [Velma] “Oh no!” [Lauren] “Are you telling me that all the Matangos here are people?” [Me] “Yes.” [Lauren] “Oh god.” [Ryselle] “Is there a cure?” [Me] “I don’t know sweetie. It doesn’t say.” [Velma] “So which means-” [Me] “You get bit or touched by any Matango in any way possible! You’re infected.” [Lauren and Velma] “Oh god!” Lauren kinda puked somewhere, away from us as Velma hugged Ryselle as tightly as she could. [Me] “This also goes the same for Titans. I mean. Remember that giant Kong-like ape that attacked us?! He must have been infected a while ago!” We get a view of Neo Kong climbing some mountains as he looks around at the view as I narrate what’s in the notebook. [Me Narrating] “I don’t know when he showed up but the notebook is calling Infected Titans, Neo Titans.” Neo Kong notices something in the distance and jumps over there. [Me Narrating] “The notebook also calls him Neo Kong due to his appearance. If Matango can get Titans and humans infected too-” Neo Kong roars at whatever is in the hole as it comes out and snarls. It looked like a T-rex but it was infected like the rest on the island. It was Neo V-Rex!!! [Velma Narrating] “Then the whole world is in danger now and we need to do something about it.” Another Neo V-Rex was behind Neo Kong and attacked him! Neo Kong grabbed both of them by the head and slammed them down on the ground as he roared. The End. Next episode is Matango (2020) S1 Ep4: Member of a Titan.
