It clicked back into its targeting mode and began to settle back down to the ground, but a volley of shots from the Dignity hammered into it one after another as it dropped, knocking it about and causing the virus to land poorly, broken and barely continuing to function.
The remaining cub began to glow a brighter blue once more, but before it could send out a restoring bolt to the damaged satellite, a shotgun blast from Critias ripped through it and threw the cube back and to the ground where its light dimmed and faded and it began to break down. After convincing her operator that she didn't need to be too precious about herself or her dignity, Phase punched in the controls to take a finishing shot at the last virus, breaking it apart once and for all and leaving just the two navigators in the clearing, along with the poorly disguised mystery data that had managed to survive the exchanges of fire power.

SatelliteSatellite (Satellite)
Area: Netopia, Sharo, NAXA
HP: 100
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: Trap(Enemy in Targeting Cursor) + Seeking: Movement (High-Alt) + Dodge + Lock-On + Nullify Invis
Primary Attack Accuracy: C
Primary Attack Description: Generates a targeting cursor that sweeps back and forth across the field, looking for a target. The cursor ignores decoys, objects, illusions, and invisibility. If the cursor intersects with an actual enemy, Lock-On is achieved, and the virus launches itself into the sky at High Altitude.
Secondary Attack Attack Damage/Effect: (3 Null + Seeking + Enhanced Accuracy) x 10 Shots
Secondary Attack Attack Accuracy: A
Secondary Attack Attack Description: When Lock-On is achieved, this virus fires a barrage of 10 highly accurate shots at its chosen target before landing in its original position. Accuracy debuffs on the Satellite while using this attack are reduced in severity by one rank.
Element: Null
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): Lock-On1, Zenny
Special: Immobile outside of its primary attack.
Special: This virus will repeat its primary attack until it finds a target, after which it will be able to use its secondary attack once. When it changes targets, either of its own volition or its current target's death, or uses its Secondary Attack and lands in its original position, it must repeat its primary attack until it finds a new target.
Notes: Triggering invisibility or an illusion, or moving the Satellite forcefully after Lock-On is achieved does not allow a target to escape Lock-On. Lock-On is a shift in the Satellite's state, not a status inflicted on its target, and thus cannot be removed.: DELETED
