As soon as the transformed navi began to move, the bee darted towards him, stinger extended. By a fluke of chance, however, the normally precision-accurate virus misjudged how quickly the strange and ungainly navi actually moved, and missed its mark by a narrow margin. The Drixol also dashed in his direction and missed by a wider margin, though this was probably less surprising, given the drill-virus' usual drill-first aim-later attitude towards attacking.
Once he was properly positioned, Asymptote changed the field and removed a large part of the magnetic strip. The storm spread out converting more and more panels, though it didn't quite manage to catch up with the length of the Drixol's overshoot. While he was occupied channelling the storm's energy down into the panels, the smaller virus in the group – the little mask-wearing Metool, took the opportunity to shoot a large black bullet from the the muzzle on its mask. It had more luck than the first two attackers, though it regretted it a moment later; the black orb struck Asymtptote's shield and bounced off, falling harmlessly to the tiles with a clank, while the reflective shield triggered and blasted back a far more brutal bolt of electricity down the trajectory zapping the hapless virus to a smoking, steaming edge of existence.
This exchange was all the time Asymptote himself needed to finally make his own counter attack. the seeking bolts that burst from his charged finger tips darted across the field arcing and homing in on his three primary targets with flawless accuracy. The Drixol took a bad hit as it came to the end of its first attack run, but clung on. The other two weren't so fortunate and were removed from the net in electrical blasts of light.
The momogra that had been watching this exchange from its hiding place weighed its options, but the sudden shift to metal panelling seemed to set it off side and instead of fleeing the scene of destruction, it waddled over to the edge of the metal and burrowed back down into the normal panels just beyond, before popping up to whistle and thump its paw on the ground vigorously several times.
For a moment nothing happened, then, after another second, a new patch of ground burst open, admitting a new virus that was seemingly coming to answer the call of a fight. This one burst out of the ground and landed neatly with a metal clank, two metal prongs on its arms clicking together and dragging a line of sparks with them as the Billy prepared to attack.

DrixolDrixol (Drixol)
Area: Electown, Kotobuki Town, Hades Isle
HP: 90
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Break + Piercing
Primary Attack Accuracy: C
Primary Attack Description: Flies at a line of enemies, drilling through all in its path.
Secondary Attack Damage/Effect: (Teleport) + (20 Null + Break + Piercing)
Secondary Attack Accuracy: B
Secondary Attack Description: After the initial flying drill attack, this virus teleports through a hole in space, and makes a second pass at the chosen enemy target from a new direction.
Element: Null
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): DrillArm1, Zenny
Special: Omnishoes when attacking.
Special: This virus will never execute its secondary attack without using its primary attack first, and always in immediate succession. Any other actions it takes must occur outside of this sequence. If anything causes an interruption between its primary attack action and secondary attack action, they revert to starting their primary attack again.: 20Hp [Normal][Just past Asymptote]
ElebeeElebee (Elebee)
Elebee viruses move and dodge at a high rate of speed, and they are fully flight capable. Elebee viruses attack by flying at their target at high speed, and delivering an electric sting. This type of virus may opt to stop short of the target, and veer sharply in a new direction to avoid an attack. This requires the expenditure of a second action, but occurs very rapidly regardless. Movement and attacking are one and the same with regards to this virus, thus physical contact with them causes damage. Elebees can see through Invis.
Area: Electown, NAXA
HP: 90
Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Elec + Seeking
Attack Accuracy: B
Attack Description: Charges toward enemy to electrocute
Element: Elec
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): Arrow1, Zenny
Special: Flying.: DELETED
MomograMomogra (Momogra)
Momogras move by tunneling through the ground. They poke their heads up just far enough from time to time to see where the enemy is, but they are still protected from most forms of attack. Drop attacks, Bomb attacks (which fall out of the air after being thrown), and Ground attacks damage them in this state. Other attacks executed from a high angle/altitude also work. All movements performed by a Momogra are considered a dodge, as they occur underground, and out of sight. Momogras only attack in response to having an attack launched in their direction, and only if they have an action remaining for that turn. Momogras attack by instantly tunneling to the panel behind the enemy, popping out of the ground, and striking with a shovel. A Momogra is completely vulnerable to any form of attack during its own atack, and until it moves again following that attack. The movement prior to the attack does not require an action, but movement afterwards does. The attack cannot execute if the panel behind the target is a liquid terrain type, Metal, Broken, or Missing. The attack also will not execute if there is something currently occupying the panel they would be attacking from. If the attack cannot execute, the Momogra will not move. In the case of Glass and Cracked terrain, the Momogras will still attempt to attack, but suffer the consequences of doing do as those panels will break and damage the Momogra, also causing the attack to fail. Momogra get 1 free movement per turn at the start of the turn before their first action.

BillyBilly (Billy)
