Coastal Paths

As Lyntael began to make her move, the two viruses on the edge of the field opened up from listening to her footsteps, the Bark looking slightly shocked at her sudden movements away into the center of the field. Her steps over the sand brushing the grains aside as she continued towards her target, whilst the Shellnerd would open up for an attack upon the encroaching navi, one spear off to the side, whist the other would be brushed aside from her torrential winds.

The metool would open up in turn as well, sending out a blast of energy at the encroaching navi as she made it to her target, the barrier absorbing the shot and brushing aside the damage entirely, as she unloaded upon the metavirus, pushing it back into the sand almost immediately after starting her assault and, while a couple attacks would go wide, she would find purchase with the others...but underneath the attacks, the final one would seal the deal, sending half it's body flying off into the distance...while the other half, drained of integrity, would indeed fall over into the twisting sands, dead. The trio of viruses remaining would watch in horror as the big virus they followed fell over dead, the lark immediately floating over to the Shellnerd and grasping it firmly in it's mouth, as the Met would waddle over and jump onto it's back, before the three would leave without further confrontation. Battle Routines faltered and ended immediately afterwards. Little remained of the virus in front of her, but...at least it's remains would make for good chip data at least.

Spots still wavered across her vision for a few moments more as Lyntael held her stance, watching the remaining viruses flee the scene of destruction. Her charge strained, throbbing beneath her skin and she felt herself sway to a moment of dizziness at the effort of holding it back. Once it was clear they were leaving, she closed her eyes again for a moment and tried to catch her breath as she focused on diffusing the force of her charge safely. A couple of big bursts was still all it took to push her into dangerous territory, even if she felt like she had more control. Around her, the warding energy field shimmered into visibility, crackling softly while small cascades of free sparks rolled off her in radiating fans.

After another moment she stood straight and drew a longer breath; the charge was still aggressively strong, but it as enough to press on with. Her muscles felt hot, with the beginnings of the familiar electrified burning, but the sensation was fading slowly as long as she continued to cool off. She moved to inspect what remained of the viral machine.

“Just broken code and data, Lyntael.” Rogan's voice reassured a worry she hadn't realised she felt, but he was right; the remnants were breaking apart further, but they were clearly mechanical and cybernetic, nothing more. There had been a moment, she realised, as she struck, when the thought of the twisted abomination of a navi had flashed through her mind, and the image of her brutal strike rending flesh and boiling blood had stung at her subconscious. She looked at the broken parts in front of her again.

“Y-yeah... I know.” A spark of flickering data caught her eye as her gaze traced over it, and Lyntael reached out one hand to pull it towards herself. It came as a thread, still coherent in function, and she let it wrap around her wrist and fingers before sending it away. How many of these pieces of chip data had Rogan managed to hawk, she wondered. With a last lingering look at the destroyed metavirus, Lyntael turned away to give the rest of the battlefield a cursory glance. Quick steps took her across to the purple data crystal, but she hesitated a few feet from it. She waited to give her body one more chance to shed sparks, then stepped up to it and reached out a hand. She'd never seen one of this colour before, but the data density was magnitudes higher than most of the others she'd encountered before, and it was strange to think that caches of this capacity were just forgotten and lost, left unprotected. Still careful of her cooling charge, Lyntael set about decrypting the data's outer seal.

((Open PMD))

Touching the PMD in front of her, the crystalized data would begin to unfurl and open up widely for her, a massive amount of workable data flooding out of the top towards her feet, quickly covering her ankles in usable zenny.

PMD reward: 18,000z

As the crystal resolved, Lyntael took a pair of quick steps backwards and bit off a small note of surprise, before reaching out to convert the date for transfer back to Rogan. It was definitely far more than she'd seen in any previous data crystal they'd come across, and she counted it quickly as the green threads flowed to her fingertips and coiled around her arm.

“I hope that wasn't left there for someone deliberately...” She glanced around just in case, but the surrounding network remained as empty as it had been for the past few moments. A quiet chuckle from Rogan was enough to make her shrug and continue on.

“If it was some kind of dark world dead drop or payment, then they ought to have secured it more thoroughly. Don't worry, Lyntael, from what I can see the last update signature on the cache was several years ago. Just lost data.” His voice, seeming to emanate from just behind and above her shoulder as it usually did, made Lyntael glance back in that direction before casting her gaze up to the cloudy sky as she walked on.

“I can't imagine how someone could just 'lose' an amount like that... it's more than a hot chocolate and a snack...”
“Try not to worry about it, Lyntael. There are a lot of reasons that currency gets hidden or set aside where it's unlikely to be found, and just as many reasons why the hands intending to come back for it don't manage to... and to be honest, they aren't... all... nefarious or tragic. We may never know.” At Rogan's reassurance, Lyntael nodded and shrugged once, then turned her eyes to the path ahead, trying as best she could to press deeper into the territory where the viral upsurge was thought to be sourced.

((Ready for Battle 13))

Continuing through the area, Lyntael would hear the waves moving slowly, calmly, despite her proximity from the main beachline the sea was as clear as ever if a bit quieter. The winds comfortably blowing into her face as her travels continued, a mountainous rocky outcropping in the sea coming more and more into view with every step, a likely repository for the viral outbreak.

Unfortunately, she'd be forced to stop dead in her tracks as something swooped by, nearly clipping the dancer's nose in the process. Though seeing the overbearing shadow nearby, a simple tilt of her head would find the culprit, a Fishy virus. Immediately, however, she could tell this one was hostile as it began to move about a marshy area, mud just about everywhere as pockets of grass poked up around in small areas of relative stability, with a pooling of water in the back of the area, likely the remnants of a high wave or even a tsunami from before.

Dropping about the area from the virus' back, a Metool to her side, a Tubby on the other as both were trying to get used to the slippery mud. And in the back, splashing into the pool of water, an Aquagear with a deeper blue paint job than the others she's likely seen. Oh, and a Shellnerd would hop in near the far corner of the area. All together, a Quintet of viruses, and more than likely, this was their attempt to jump the electric dancer. Battle routines flared up, Rogan's PET scanned the quintet and at the end of it all, it was another battle for Lyn to face...and none of the targets looked all too happy to see her in what she could only assume to be their territory.

-- Rogue Battle 13 Ready? Start!! --

Lynael let herself enjoy the calm weather and the breeze as she moved forward, though a part of her remained subtly aware of how the new bodysuit hugged her skin, at once making it more sensitive to the touch, but also dulling her sense of the circling winds around her. The settings on it had mostly been for cosmetic display, as far as she understood, but maybe there was a way to adjust its tactile feedback as well perhaps. Something to ask about if she ever saw BeastKnight or his operator again, she supposed. Without noticing she had done so, Lyntael unconsciously ran her hands across the contours of the suit as she walked; chest and sides, hips and thighs in turn, and let out a soft sigh in appreciation without really being aware of the the action.

It was only a short walk before the high bluff descended down into a tidal marshland closer to the edge of the shore again and Lyntael felt a quiet giggle urging to rise to her lips as she cautiously tested her steps in the growing mud and pushed forward through it. It was a fun feeling between her toes, and this time she wouldn't have to worry about her clothes getting indecent or needing to wash off in compromising ways. At least, she assumed the suit would clean easily if she slipped anywhere.

Partway through the tidal muds, sudden movement made Lyntael take a sudden skipping step backwards to avoid a dive-bombing virus. Wind curled about her form as she caught her balance in the slippery mud and the startled shock made her charge pulse in reaction. A warding shell of electrical energy radiated outward from her body, stabilising as it passed her strikers before it faded from sight and she looked up to locate the hostile creature.

A Fishy had just arced about after its initial rush, and more splashes in the mud to either side of her announced the arrival of more viruses alongside it; had they jumped from its back? As she backed off a step, hands raises and palms out for the moment, the bubbling of water just ahead, partially cutting off her path, showed one she knew as a substantially more dangerous species of virus, along with another shelled one. An ambush then? It seemed like it. She slid her feet in the mud, adopting a stance better for her balance and glanced about.

“I've no quarrel. Just moving through... that way...” She nodded ahead towards the rockier outcropping in the distance. “I'll only defend myself against any of you if you make me...” Given the ambush, and the seemingly thoughtless aggression that several of them looked to be showing, Lyntael was sure the words were probably a futile gesture, but she spoke them anyway and readied herself to avoid whichever of them decided to strike at her next.

As she shifted to avoid whichever hostilities came her way first, Lyntael could feel her own body more eager to respond to the threat than she really wished it would be; her charge thrummed to a warm glow beneath her skin rising to a crackling buzz within her, eager to expend itself in retribution to any virus unlucky enough to land proper contact on her, try as she might to avoid it.

Sparks rippled off her body as she held her position, weaving and evading in the slippery mud as best she could and vying to keep her balance at the same time. Twists of wind and curling breezes pushed back to help catch the moments when her feet slipped or her motions were less stable as she remained in the centre of the group of ambushers. Smaller bursts of sparks, then larger ones followed, and Lyntael could feel her charge rising and falling in a fluctuating beat alongside the rhythm of hear heart and breath; alert, but for once strangely calm amidst the sudden hostility. As a larger flood of electrical energy washed out from her in a wave of sparks, Lyntael caught her breath in the empty sensation then called out as her charge cycled back up again to answer the brief void.

“Any of you can leave, any time you want! You stop, I stop, and go on my way.” She steadied herself again, taking a deeper breath after the call and sparing a glance for the viruses that still surrounded her. Maybe some would give up, though she doubted it. She didn't truly know, one virus to the next, which of them even understood her words and which didn't. The best she could do was make the offer, and protect herself when it failed. Focus on staying safe for now.

Adopting her defensive stance, barrier coming alive as she spoke towards the viruses, the viruses somewhat confusedly looking at one another as those words came forth. Though it wouldn't stand for long as the Fishy would fly towards her for a head-on collision with her, just missing as she moved out of it's path, whilst the Met would move just a bit forward and strike at her with it's pickaxe, but just barely missing it's tip on her flesh.

Her flesh rippling with electrical charge, the Shellnerd would make its attempt to attack, coming out of it's shell to spit a pair of spears right at the navi and unfortunately for her, one spear would find purchase in her barrier (50) whilst the other would be deflected by her turbulant currents...right into the eye of the Metool (50) whilst her currents would immediately shock and send it flying to her left, as well as catching the Tuby in it's radius, making it's landing with a resounding SPLAT in the mud (10)...upside down on it's helmet, wriggling it's little feet in defiance of this fact. Whilst the Tuby would be sent off towards her east, with another resounding splat of mud.

The viruses, despite her cries to stop this fight, were entirely ready to fight to the death despite the unintentional friendly fire. The Aquagear opening up wide with a growl and sending a massive blast of water into the area, a loud rumble followed by a massive geyser of water...where Lyntael WAS at. The Shellnerd immediately shuttering itself partly out of it's defensive nature and it's blunder against the Met. The Fishy would immediately divebomb her again as she moved, but before it could finish its divebomb, the navi would manage to shock it mid-flight as it got into her area, just barely knocked off course in it's attack and sending itself face first into the muddy landscape (50).

Whilst the Tuby would also suffer from the electrical blast, though it was certainly not being blasted off again being more than a little stuck in the mud as it began to clear itself of it's muddy tomb (50). The Aquagear would take another jab at attacking Lyntael, another Geyser of water exploding out from beneath the paneling...and STILL somehow missing being a good several feet away from her. Though at the end of the day, this wouldn't help much for Lyntael as she patched herself up (+80)...the Tuby would finally get a chance to start inhaling deeply, Rogan's PET pinpointing it as a troublesome target as "Confusion Risk" would flash in a corner of the screen.

(One pool of salty water near the edge of the field opposite Lyntael, roughly wide enough for a trio or quartet to fit on)

Amidst the ebb and flow of her charge Lyntael wove between the various attacks of the viruses surrounding her and guided the air currents in small ways that moved with and complimented the delicate steps and turns that she made. As one of the Shellnerd's spears passed through her barrier, the motion of it spun her partially around with a tugging that lacked any power to injure but still made the girl start slightly. She spared a glance for where it had scraped cross her side and blinked away a surprised thought when there was no clear damage to her new suit, and no inappropriately exposed skin to be seen. She shouldn't be surprised by that... but she was.

She hadn't had much hope that her words would find traction with the group that had tried to ambush her, but it was still sad that they weren't listening. She could leave, it was true... just push forward and let them be, but... even these lower nets weren't as deserted of other navis as she'd first thought, and if she didn't stop them from threatening her, then they would almost certainly go on to threaten someone else later. She caught her balance, pulling the circling winds around her body again and focused her resolve as the charge under her skin flared to continued readiness. If it must be done, then do it swiftly.

“Lyntael. In case you are hesitating, the... instrument... is no less a threat. It is a debilitator virus, and will hinder you, according to this reading.” Rogan's voice was calm and only mildly engaged, by the sound of it. Lyntael nodded her head and murmured a short acknowledgement as she assessed the scene.

Her eyes darted around to the viruses that had succumbed to the trials of the mud all around them, then focused forward instead to the more dangerous threats. With a short breath, Lyntael dashed forward a few steps, the winds around her body lightening her steps across the mud until she let one foot land firmly, crouching and drawing the press of her charge up to her chest and then out in a fluid sweeping kick that lifted her body upward and over into a graceful backward flip. Lightning crackled from her leading striker and tore free into a thundering wave of electricity that coursed outward towards the sealed-up shell virus with shattering, disintegrating force.

The force wave split into arcing lines as it reached the shellnerd, passing forward beyond the virus and on towards the beefier Aquagear behind it while other trails of electricity blasted back along the recoil, flaring back down the line it had already travelled and beyond. The returning arc seared beneath Lyntael's body as she let the wind guide her aerial twist, turning over to land back where she had come from on nimble toes as sparks rolled off her in waves that kept the pulsing beat of her energy stable. The sparks still danced beneath her skin, ready to lash out at anything nearby trying to strike her, but Lyntael's focus was still forward. As she landed, she let herself step back, bracing her slight weight more firmly and reaching out to embrace the cycle of her charge as it swelled in response to the first expenditure. Now she drew it deliberately, urging the build up and letting it flow until it filled her. Her arms lifted, wrists snapping together in front of her as her strikers sang with an electrical hum.

The bolt lit up the mud pit in a flare of bright light as it arced across the battlefield, once more dwarfing her small form with the force of its magnitude. Errant sparks arced and twisted from the main blast as it hammered towards the far off Aquagear in a succession of searing pulses.

Lyntael felt the blast steal her breath with it, the void opening up in her chest at the empty sensation, but she drew a breath: a moment of stillness between one heartbeat and the next, and then the power came roaring back again. The flood filled her and Lyntael let her body rise from its braced pose, limbs tingling with warmth and static. She looked up and out; the wind was there, caressing her senses, and with it... She reached.

Clouds formed, slowly at first and then swifter into a rolling grey storm that rumbled once then cracked with a flash of lightning in response to her call. Rain began to fall, pattering in the mud and filling in the divots caused by their conflict until it had drenched everything. Lyntael stood still in the centre of the battle shifting to avoid threats only absently, her body crackling and glowing as winds curled around her limbs and the viruses around her seeming to fading into the background for just a moment as she let herself experience the falling rain.

“Last chance...” Her voice murmured quietly towards whichever viruses remained on the field. “You can leave; I won't stop you.” She could feel her limbs flooded with electricity, burning in her muscles and glowing around her strikers ready to burst, but the warmth was still a comfortable tingle – a buzz that wasn't even close tot he pain she was used to feeling under stress. She could control this.

Moving towards her target, Lyntael would let out a devistating flashkick that would tear through the Shellnerd with little effort, a sicking crack would cry out between the thundering sounds across the field, deleting the Shellnerd within it's own shell, whilst the disentigrating force would fly out towards other directions, just barely missing the Aquagear as it moved just in time and clipping the Tubby as it continued to prepare to blast it's musics, whilst the Fishy was busying itself with escaping the mud, popping out just in time to watch the instrument get blasted, this did not stop it from beginning to sing however, an annoyingly off-pitched tune escaping from the living instrument, grating HEAVILY on Lyn's mental stability, if not stopped before long she'd likely go insane!...or the closest analgue for her at the very least.

Her movement back towards the center of the area would be met with the Aquiagear unloading a torrential blast of water again in turn right under her feet, managing to finally strip away the barrier (60) from her form, but causing a ripple effect that would damage the two she was between with a dual blast of electiricity, sending the Tubby head over ass into the mud, head first, causing it to stand perfectly upright whilst the Fishy was pushed back into the mud, but it would get back up almost immediately this time. All the while the met that could would FINALLY manage to right itself...and watching as Lyn would begin moving against the Aquagear in that moment...it decided immediately to peace the hell out, running from the battle as fast as it's stubby legs could allow.

With her movement against the Aquagear, it tried in vein to avoid her attacks, the first striking clear as day, both typing and it's own conductive lake would GREATLY do it's job, it's internal structure flashing for a brief moment upon it's strike and, moreso there, enough of her strikes landing true to finally remove the annoyance, it's metal body crumpling beneath her strikes before the body sunk beneath the waves, never to be seen again. All the while, her core would bring forth the stormclouds above, rain coming quick and hard, every muddy patch and even the grassy ones, would begin to disappear beneath the waves, as lightning flickered between Fishy and Tuby, the latter disageed with this however...before turning to a blackened ash, dead in a moment. Her words came as the Fishy looked about...and took it's immediate leave, flying off into the distance, knowing full well only an idiot wouldn't take this.

Data scoured the now water logged battlefield and, with it, data Rogan would be happy to take along most likely.

Battle 13 Victory!
13,500z, 25 Bugfrags

Lyntael stood amidst the falling rain and felt the charge thrumming beneath her skin, straining to be used and setting her body alight with warmth and pressure, but as she felt the storm rumble overhead and the wind curling about her form at the centre of it, the sense of calm remained. She looked around, almost dreamlike for a moment, as the remaining viruses fled and let a ripple of stabilising sparks scatter from her gently. The strain of her charge faded as she let them go and Lyntael turned her head towards the clouds, eyes closed and feeling the rain on her face. It was strange, in a way; now, as she had never really understood before, she could feel the serenity in the storm as well as its force and violence. With another long breath in and out again, she let the feeling go. Far above, the rain slowed and stopped then a break formed in the clouds to let fresh sunlight fall across her. Swiftly then, the clouds began to break away and before long the whole event seemed to be returning to the network's normal weather patterns.

The girl inclined her head and stretched slowly with fluid, graceful motions as she enjoyed the sunlight as much as she had appreciated the rain. It would feel better if she wasn't wearing a full body suit like she was, and the urge to feel the warmth of the sun across more of her skin swelled in her mind, but Lyntael relaxed all the same and began gathering the retrievable date over another few careful moments.

It didn't take long before she had gathered what she could, converting it to a slim green string of data that twisted up around her arm then faded from sight as she sent it across the link back to Rogan's PET. The thought gave her pause for a moment. A shift in her thinking and feeling... The device was Rogan's, really – it was how he communicated with her and how they exchanged data, but... As she sent off the last of the data, Lyntael glanced down at the centre of her own chest. The emblem she had once borne, an integral part of her being and the core element that represented so much about who she had been... was gone now. Shattered and destroyed, but yet she wasn't any less for it. If anything she was more herself now than she had ever been.

As she began to walk forward from the battle site, picking her steps in small skipping jumps between the lingering puddles, Lyntael let her thoughts explore what she was feeling. The PET was where her home was, but it was just that; a place she lived and space she'd made herself comfortable in... important to her, but no intrinsic part of her. She really did think of the device as Rogan's rather than hers, now. It was a peculiar realisation.

“Are we close to the target location, Rogan? I think I can see where I might be trying to get to, now, if that's where the co-ordinates are leading.” She hoped the rocky outcrop she'd been steadily heading towards was indeed their final destination for today. As much as she had protected herself well, Lyntael could still feel the strain and fatigue of the day's trek building up on her. Minor scrapes and bruises were starting to ache beneath her new suit and even refreshed by the rain and the wind and the sun that gave her joy, she was definitely feeling tired now. A cup of tea, something to eat, and a chance to curl up in her bed with something to read were all sounding like extremely appealing prospects... and that was without the time she knew she ought to take to really process through some of the other events of the day, and the feelings about those that she was putting to the back of her mind for now. Rogan's voice answered back after only a short moment.

“Not too far now, Lyntael. If you continue at your current pace, you should reach the supposed co-ordinates in another few minutes or so.” She nodded at his assessment, then murmured a small affirmation to him as she pressed on along the coastline. It might have been mostly a day of sorting herself out mentally, but it had definitely been a long day of physical testing as well, intended or not.

((Ready for Battle 14))

Continuing on through the area towards her fated meeting among the waves, her blustery wind and rainstorm seemed to have some longer reaching consequences than just in that last fight (for the viruses). Everything was a mess, from the deep patches of sea water scattered about in various formations, be it small pools to the much larger "sea" of panels towards the back of the area from her perspective in the north. Though a piercing screech could be heard in the distance, before a large bird of prey could come zooming down towards Lyntael's level, the navi ducking out of the way just in time to avoid the razor sharp claws that nearly grabbed the electrifying dancer.

Though she didn't get much of a reprieve as the bird came back around at lightning speeds, settling in front of her as it flapped it's giant wings, gusts of wind nearly knocking Lyn back from their slow, but powerful beats. The razor sharp claws flexing in front of her at eye level, their tips serrated like knives...and spots of leftover data clinging to them. With another screech, the bird summoned up a trio of viruses to fight alongside it. Emerging to the east and shaking off the mud that clung to it, another of her bounty, the Shellnerd would make itself known, whilst to the North-East, a similar appearance of a virus with a ninja motif would come crawling out of the mud, a small creature on two legs, a headband adorning it's head and in place of hands, two large knives known as Kunai would cling to either side of it. But behind the giant bird virus, known as the TinHawk, a crab-like virus bubbled up from a nearby body of sea water, tiny with two disproportionately sized claws, the crab would summon a cyclone of water beneath it and carrying it up to eye level with Lyntael.

Flashing on the PET, Rogan would see the TinHawk would be identified as a Metavirus. Battle Routines setting in, it was up to Lyntael to execute.
