A Run Through Home!

"Tch, more wimps." said Tetsujin in irritation, waving his hand in the direction of the group of virii, wrist relaxed in the act of the classic "limp wrist" taunt. "It's a shame, really."

"Finish it quickly..." said Mokujin, inserting the Rage Claw chip into his PET as he gave his orders. "And try not to get hurt this time..."

"Yaddayadda..." responded the navi as he made a quick dash toward the first target, trailing dust in short burst of speed, the Rage Claws forming around his hands in a swirling flash of data. He'd begin quick stab aimed to go through the Metool's face, followed by a toss in the air that would then close with a powerful swipe; a shot intended for the kill. Normally he'd add more flair, but with the number of enemies surrounding him, he knew to maintain some degree of defense, and was prepared to dodge anything that may come his way.

The dynamic duo springs into action once more! Crown throws a burst of healing energy at his ally, healing Tetsujin to full HP, before spearing a small Metool with the King's javelin! A counterattack from the other Metool is then foiled by Tetsujin, who bats the enemy aside with his first strike but, sadly, misses with the second. With a swordfighter's instinct, he manages to sense the Spooky behind him, and dodges out of the way just in time. Crown likewise dodges a Pulsebat shot, but is hit by the tongue of an unexpected second Spooky.

(Nevermind, read that completely wrong.)

"Be more careful, Tetsujin. Your vital signs read dangerously low." Crown says, his voice calm with a hint of worry. With a single thought, Crown recalled the Shotgun data, and along with help from his targeting systems, he aimed at a space in between both Ghost viruses. It was risky, but a success would defeat both viruses and leave them with less to worry about.

"I realize you loathe the thought of being more careful, but if you don't, you might just lose."

(...??? You healed Tetsujin, and he's at full. You were at 50, and got hit by a 30 damage attack.)
"Lecturing me, even after getting a face full of ghost tongue?" laughed Tetsujin as he regained his posture. "You're quite the comedian, Knight boy. Be more concerned about yourself."

It was clear to Tetsujin that Crown had been weakened considerably. At this point, it would take little to knock him out of the game for good. Thus, he'd do one of the things he did best: piss off his enemy.

"Heatshot, Shotgun" he said, signaling Mokujin to slot in the respective battle chips, resulting in the navi's left and right clawed fists burning bright red with explosive power. "Time to garner a bit of attention..."

With those words, he performed a deadly cross with his left, aimed to the face of the metool he had injured; an attack that would result in a devastating explosion near it, likely to damage the Spooky in that position. Using the momentum from that blow would result in a powerful spin of the body, performing a powerful hook that would result in a potent explosion of flame, meant to engulf the two Pulsbats he aimed for.

Even if the attacks didn't hit their mark, the large portrayal of their effects would result in the attention of the virii to likely be drawn to Tetsujin's position.

Crown blasts into the fray, knocking down one Spooky, as the other maneuvers out of the way. However, Tetsujin's own Shotgun is able to nail both Metool and Spooky, the following Heatshot hits one Pulsebat, but the other rises quickly into the air to avoid damage. The remaining Pulsebat screeches its ultrasonic waves at the combatants, but both manage to dodge.

"Is that it? And here I was thinking that the fight would last longer..." said Tetsujin, disappointed in the utter lack of strength his opponents possessed. "I guess I'm just too strong for my own good."

His knuckles crackling beneath his claws, Tetsujin's attention returned to the nearby Pulsebat, his demonic grin expanding as he charged forth in a burst of speed, his arm extended in preparation for a furious wave of slashes, intent upon shredding his opponent into confetti within seconds; a move that would transform into a swift pass to add a mighty bit of flair to his motions.

"I win again..."

"Hmph. Lord James, do we have any way of attacking the bat that flew up?" Crown said with an air of distaste. He disliked not being able to act. Action was part of his blood, metaphorically.

"Nope. Just hang tight, Crown. You'll do fine." James said, fiddlign around with a phone. He was dialing numbers and cancelling repeatedly, he was planning something, but kept deciding against it at the last minute.

Action 1-3: Dodge.
Tetsujin lays into the bat with his claws and manages to finish it off. The other flying foe descends and attacks, but both navis dodge the move.

"In closing..." said Tetsujin as his claws cleaved through the Pulsbat that he had just finished. "All you suckers are served!!!"

Using the remaining force from his finishing blow as momentum, Tetsujin eagerly drove himself toward the descending pulsbat, wind howling as it passed between his claws at high speed, his hair wilding flapping in the wind as he prepared himself to pierce through his target with maximum destructive force. As he did, Mokujin slotted in a cannon chip, just for the sake of adding to the already heavily destructive power of the attack. It was time for him to hit game point.

"I don't think so, Tetsujin." Crown muttered to himself. "MarkCannon Squared."

Instead of the usual gun-arms, he switched it up a small bit. Raising his hand, a blob of energy began growing from his palm outward. It only took a moment for it to reach it's full size, drawing his hand back, he punched it and it flew at the Pulsebat, picking up more and more speed as it headed towards it's target.

"I advise you not get hit Tetsujin." Crown said to his teammate.

"Ha. I totally dealt the final blow." said Tetsujin, crossing his arms in proclamation of his triumph. "Those losers didn't know what hit em'. And to think, if it weren't for me, you'd probably find your ass back in your PET right about now. Man, I rule."

Born from his excitement came an array of somersaults, finely displaying his keenly honed acrobatic skills; every leap and bound fluidly and gracefully molded itself into a magnificent aerial sweep, yet always ended in a clean, flawless landing.

"There had better be something tougher ahead. I'm getting bored with all of his lameness."
"I wouldn't doubt you dealt the final blow, Tetsujin. Nor do I doubt that I wouldn't have been able to deal with that particular mob. And in all likeliness, we will run into much more dangerous foe ahead." Crown said, letting the more excitable Navi's taunts and boasting slide over him like water on a duck. The navi was just as excited as Tetsujin was, although he preferred not to show it like the other. He favored keeping it inside, more or less.

Leaning back in his chair, James finally ended his number loop by dialing the number he was repeatedly entering for what seemed to be no reason. "Hey, dad. You're done for the day, yeah?" A moment's pause. "Ah, I see. Can you do me a favor though?" Another pause. "No, it won't take long. Just stop by the Navi Shop and pick up a Speed Upgrade for me." Indignant silence. "Of course I'm going to pay you back. If you've noticed I haven't began asking you for free shit any time in the past, why should I start now?" ..... "YES, for the last time, I'm going to pay, and yes, it's not going to be on the tab. I don't even HAVE a tab, dad." James let out an exasperated sigh. "Alright, thanks." Click.

James let out a sigh. "Hey Crown, could you tell your friend to wait a minute or two? I'm expecting a delivery."

"His name is Tetsujin, my Lord. In addition, I can wait, although I do not know if the same can be said of him." Crown answered James. He turned to Tetsujin next, addressing him. "Tetsujin. Could you wait for a few minutes? My Lord expects a delivery."
"Your 'lord'? Sheesh, dude. You'll play this knight role to the grave, huh?" replied Tetsujin, blinking momentarily in awe of the navi's... vocabulary. "Well, whatever. I'll wait, but don't expect me to wait too long. The viruses won't exactly be patient either, should they try to kill us at any given moment, so you tell your 'lord' to hurry the hell up."

"Hm... chivalry. Could be a useful concept for you to pick up, Tetsujin." said Mokujin to his in a twisted sort of tease. "Perhaps you should..."

"How's about you take your ideas and stick them in the deepest reaches of your ass!" responded Tetsujin, shaking his fist in his operator's direction furiously as he vented his anger. "Grrrr... that bastard doesn't know how lucky he is that I can't go out there and give him a real thrashing. His day will come; oh will his day come..."
"I call him my Lord not because I was programmed to do so, but because I respect him as much. The same way you should have been influenced. Respect, and honor. It would do you well, Tetsujin." Replied Crown.

James stood up and left the room, heading towards the living room where he'd meet his dad. Meanwhile, minutes passed in uncomfortable silence. Finally, from where Crown was, he could hear muffled conversations. It ended very shortly with a pleased James entering the room, tossing the program up and down and whistling a tune. With a flourish and a spin, James sat down on his chair and snatched up his PET, inserting the program into the PET's dock and fiddling around with a few options. Good. It would install right now. With nary a confirmatory beep, it flashed a quick message and that was it.

Feeling somewhat better, Crown broke the silence. "It is done, Tetsujin. Come, we have many viruses to slay." He finished this by walking towards what be knew was deeper into ACDC territory.
"Finally!" shouted Tetsujin, having completely ignored the lecture of respect and honor having that Crown had been spouting. "Those asses won't kick themselves!"

As always, his energy was at the utmost, fists swinging through the air in hopeful anticipation of raw action coming his way, a swift display of shadowboxing techniques to keep himself warm and prepared for another crushing victory. He could only hope that the next set of opponents was worthy of his time.

"Ten versus two. First things first..." Relatively new, but oh so important. Crown felt the familiar sensation come back to him. Absorbing loose data in the air and absorbing it into himself. It was very useful.

Crown didn't need to bother with requesting chip data from James yet. He had a new recently acquired gem to use. Breathing in, he put two fingers to his mouth and whistled. Instead of the normal, humanish whistle, an ear-shattering shriek emanated from his mouth and shot towards one of the Metools. He lowered his right arm and quickly raised it up, crossed it over his chest, and made a slashing motion towards another Metool. Synchronized behind him, the Spiral Frames spun into existance, combined, and launched itself at a Metool.

This done, Crown crouched low, expecting something to attack him, or try to. If they did, he'd be able to quickly react.
