Meanwhile, Aya and Suzume were leading their viruses on a merry, if dangerous, chase across another part of the asteroid, but drew them unerringly towards the cubes summoned before. The two sparklers proved just how dangerous truanting them was, as their highly charged bodies crashed into everything around them, right as the twins diverted from the cubes. The girls did their best to avoid the damage, but though they each managed to steer clear of one attacking sparkler, each fell victim tot he other she hadn't quite been watching. They zipped away, but not without sustaining heavy hits. The cube that the two sparklers had been bearing down on also bore the wrath of their bodies, and before either could start orbiting it happily, the cube was pulverised by their twin attack.
With the shredders splitting up, Drago zeroed in on the nearest, still landward one, and sliced it with his whirling blade, though the situation didn't leave him in range of any other targets at the time. Up above Sylk reached down to web the remaining RockCube, heaving it towards the two sparklers where they had paused, but even though both avoided the cube itself, they found themselves caught up in orbiting it all the same. What was odd about all of this was that the lowered gravity seemed to have further unexpected effects on Sylk's efforts. Not just a small pull, her yank threw the cube with incredible force and speed, such that it ended up in a drifting orbit around the planet, Sparklers in tow.
With most of his immediate targets going in unexpected directions, Drago was still able to make the distance he needed to deliver a fierce slash to one of the now airborne sparklers on their tiny cubic moon, but he didn't see something else that happened as a result. the first Shredder, which had flown up high, had performed a graceful roll in orbit, and now materialised a new Cube directly in front of it, facing towards Drago, a short distance away and with his back unfortunately turned. It revved, charged, and forcefully shot the freshly made cube with a terrifying grade of force, aided by the reduced gravity and lowered resistance, sending it crashing squarely into the dragonier's back. the cube shatter over him completely, leaving nothing but shards, and Drago himself was still up and fighting, but only just.
Down below, the second Shred, having destroyed its own target in the form of Sylk's decoy, placed a new cube just behind itself, then arced up towards the sky, where most of the battle was now taking place. It launched a spread of three bladed pucks, that bounced and ricocheted across the area, and each other, and while most of them failed to hit anything at all, one struck the totem, flipping its around and changing its element, one nearly clipped Suzume, though she just barely managed to twist out of the way, while three, in the course of their bouncing, ended up attempting to strike Sylk. The first hit her wooden shield, crushing it before the hive could release its bees, while the second managed to destroy her barrier for now. The third, she dodges from, though it wobbled wildly and seemed to be almost whimsical in its travel path. It probably wouldn't have hurt even if it had hit her.
While this aerial melee was going on, the two Invaders were watching intently, and as the Shredder launched its pucks, they attacked, sending bolts of sizzling electricity upwards into the group. The two beams of energy bounced erratically off the skittering pucks, making them unpredictable, until one managed to singe across Sylk's back, wearing down her casing as well. The other bolt failed to connect with anyone of importance before fizzling out, which was something to be glad of.
More than likely enraged by the assault on his person, Drago connected another slash on one of the two orbiting Sparklers, before Aya released her dragon onto the field to play. There wasn't much left on the ground for it, but it found the two invaders before either of them could fly away, and by the time it was finished, the brainy overseers were gone. It didn't manage to take the grounded shredder out as well, but two out of three wasn't bad, all things considered. Suzume, meanwhile, had something unpleasant for the Sparklers, and blew enough confusing pollen over the pair to remove their danger from the battle for good.
Sylk finally had the room to make what was probably one of her very favourite attacks, filling the sky with electricity. Her targeted rain of pain didn't have very much left to go for, most of it crashing down over where the Invaders had been, although the lights she directed towards the Shredders still mostly fond their marks. One machine was guttering smoke badly, and looked like it was barely staying in the air now, while the other wasn't faring much better. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite done yet, and it was perhaps this persistence that caught Sylk off guard, as the damaged machine blasted its way up from the ground towards her, meeting the spider-woman as she descended, and striking her with enough force to send her spinning wildly out of control and tot he very, very edge of the planetoid's gravitational field.
The more damaged of the two Shredders had settled back down to the ground level, seeking to avoid the worst of things for now, but Drago wasn't about to let it go; his final fiery dragon devoured much of the grass on its way to devouring the hardy virus once and for all. At the last, even as she was thrown dangerously close to being ejected from this area of the network, Sylk countered with a brutally strong magnum blast, putting the cap on the final virus on the field. It would probably take her some help, some clever or ability usage, or else a good couple of minutes to get herself back to solid ground, after that painful pro-fly, but now that the battle was over, at leas, she had ample time free to do so in safety.
They also had time, now, to lick their wounds, rest and recover from their hurts, gather their loot, maybe open a shiny blue rewards, and possibly take some time to explore this strange little planet, and its mysterious single-doored dome.
