Fatigue

Zane had watched as Dual obtained the data from the virii as well as the zenny data. He displayed both across the screen as he had nodded and then added the Guard battlechip to his folder for later usage, it would seem like a good idea to jack out since he was tired, but he was desperate, and he was barely holding his PET as he dozed off every once and a while.

"Zane, are you okay? I thought I would have to do it all on my own when you phased out like that..." Dual had mentioned from the PET communication as he had expected a reply, but at that moment, he had heard a groan and a mutter as he could barely make both of them out. "It's okay Dual, I can continue. I just feel a bit fatigued from work, and I didn't get much rest every since we were attacked by that stranger."

He figured as much as he heard the reply. He folded his arms as he had faced down to the ground of the cyber world hearing Zane. It wasn't not only should they leave that was puzzling him, but what was it that attacked them since it was too dark and shady to be called a 'who'? "Shall we continue? I at least want to see how long we can trek before jacking out..." Zane said convincing Dual;, although he knew the boy was being modest and digressive from battling viruses which was his intention.

"Fine...just a little longer I guess, but don't push yourself..." Dual had advised to his NetOp.
Oh, look, it's the 50 HP brigade, riding out to meet the battle-seeking navi!

BunnyA: 50 HP
BunnyB: 50 HP
ShrubbyA: 50 HP
CanodumbA: 50 HP
ShrubbyB: 50 HP
CanodumbB: 50 HP

-BATTLE 2! FIGHT!-
Zane had looked to the screen of his PET as he had saw the new batch of virii that suddenly appeared. He had lifted his hand as he saw his battle chips had reloaded from the previous fight and nodded ready trying not to show his tiresome condition. He had swiped at is PET in an attempt to load a chip to be ready, but he missed the slot. His mind was telling him he was just being a klutz, but he knew that he was ready to fall over and knock himself out.

"Zane, is something wrong?" The voice snapped Zane from his tired state as he had felt rejuvenated, even if it was just for a second. He had shook his head as he had seen his navi who was looking back toward him from the corner of his eye. "No...not at all. Let's go!" The NetOp said readily as he had slotted in a set of chips and pressed a command on his PET in the middle of his set of used chips.

"Now, be quick and they won't know what hit 'em...Shotgun, Battlechip in, Download!" he advised his first statement as a plan as Dual had quickly motioned with a quick dive to his right while making his Shotgun appear on his right hand during his quick evasion to avoid a likely opening attack from his enemies. His first thought focused on the Bunny viruses since they would be quick to give him a shock and paralyze them for another opening attack, so he quickly used his weapon to shoot off a round at the Bunny virus and strike the second one behind the virii since he was trying to be rid of the potential threat during his motioning air dive.

As Dual finally hit the ground his crash turned into a barrel roll as he finally managed to set and kneel on one knee while his right hand was reached behind his back forming the long glowing white beam formed sword that was his Edge Sword.

"Target...locked...now strike!" Dual had muttered in his procedure as he had made a swipe from the concealed weapon that was behind him to make a diagonal slash of energy come across the enemies area to strike the center positioned shrubby, but he knew the virii had a chance to escape the intensity of the attack, but not like the cannon virii that was positioned in opposing positions between the bunny virus, so he was most likely to not let his attack go in vein.

BunnyA: DELETED!
BunnyB: DELETED!
ShrubbyA: 50 HP
CanodumbA: DELETED!
ShrubbyB: 50 HP
CanodumbB: 50 HP

Dual: 90

((Your sig should be only able to hit one enemy for 70, if its your only lvl 1.))
((I thought it should have some kind of small flaw, so I said the attack would be 60 instead of 70, but when they told me that it should be up to 70 for the first level I went ahead and changed it to that. Sorry...))

Dual had looked to his remaining enemies. Shrubby were always his least favorite virii of all. Zane's movements were sluggish, but his mind was thinking to it's top notch as he had took a chip in hand while shaking slotted in a cannon chip. Dual had watched as his wrist had changed form to fit the blasting cannon on his right wrist. He targeted the Cannon first as he was quick to get in sight and let out a blast in attempt to delete the virii since it wasn't capable of movement meaning he couldn't miss the shot.

Dual had anticipated the attack of a shrubby as he had changed his weaponry again. His right hand changing from a simple cannon to a claw as the large set of scratch nails hand appeared and he quickly made his move lunging forward to slash at the closest Shrubby and then retreat with a swift dodge to the left since he wanted to be completely out of range of the rolling log attack.

Attacks & Chips Used: Cannon, Rage Claw, Dodge/Movement

1st Turn - Cannon (50 Damage) > CanodumbB

2nd Turn - Rage Claw (40 Damage) > ShrubbyA

3rd Turn - Dodge/Movement - Dual Dodges to the left
----------------------

((Umm...is there a better way to explain the duration of Rageclaw? I see it is until overridden or broke, but when exactly does it break or override?))
((Basically, until broken means that its still there until a mod says that it breaks. Until overriden means that until you use another weapon to replace the claw, its there. Got it? Also, cannons do 40.))

The canodumb is wounded by the blast and the Shrubby recieves a a serious cut from Dual's claw. It tries to counter, but misses.

BunnyA: DELETED!
BunnyB: DELETED!
ShrubbyA: 10 HP
CanodumbA: DELETED!
ShrubbyB: 50 HP
CanodumbB: 10 HP

Dual: 90
((Right, go it! Sorry, so many MMBN games, I forget the cannon's original attack points.))

Dual was quick as he had saw the counter and after dodging, he saw it was his chance for an opening. He quickly bore the claw and jump into place as he planted the tips of the claw into the cyber ground and then upper slashed at his Shrubby enemy with the claws intending to sever it into many pieces. His sight towards the remaining cannon was set on it as he had twirled on his heel and then kicked off in a lunge towards the distant Canondumb that sat there remaining as he swiped from right to left and letting the long nails strike the ground as he subsided his fury filled attack.

His claws had retracted as the Dual Gattler had appeared after his assault showing he was done with his savage close combat weapon. He intended to keep his distance. He quickly moved with a swift kick off to the right as well as to whip around as he planned to get into position to use his Luminous Edge on his next assault as well as to attempt to parry the expected attack coming from the remaining Shrubby.

3rd Turn - Movement/Dodge to the right.

((My posts dropped from four Paras to two, icky! >_<))
The two attacks manage to hit, and the Shrubby misses Dual. He hears a sickening crack from his arm, however, and looks down fearing the worst, only to see his rageclaw in pieces! Better find another way to take out that virus...

BunnyA: DELETED!
BunnyB: DELETED!
ShrubbyA: DELETED!
CanodumbA: DELETED!
ShrubbyB: 50 HP

Dual's eyes had shifted to his weapon on his hand as it changed into his Edge Sword. He had readied himself as he slightly bent his knees in a ready lunge and reached his arm back around him concealing his weapon even though it's glow was seeable like that of a beam sword. He was like a samurai ready to whip the blade of a katana and sheet it as quickly as it was drawn as he eyed the virii and focused his visor's targeting view on the top screen.

"Target locked...." Dual had spoken as he had lowered his head to make a glare come across the visor along with the virus. "Fire!" He said as he whip his weapon making a slash come across the panels vertically and the navi being in the eye of the three panel attack as it slashed across to strike the enemy. His attack had struck the panels with a strong influence like the exclamation point of his destructive command.

The navi didn't grow to over confident as he had stood up and then jumped back a space quickly so he would be up and ready. He knew if the enemy was still live he would have to switch to his primary buster, but he rarely missed with his favorite technique, but there was a chance of a last minute counter during his attack at that moment causing him to evade to the right to stay out of range.

Actions & Chips Used: Luminous Edge, Movement

1st Turn - Luminous Edge (70 Damage) > Shrubby (+ top and bottom panels, wide range)

2nd Turn - Movement/Evade to the right.
(I'm just going to ignore the panel parts of that sig attack. There ARE no panels here. Your sig does 70 to one enemy. Simple enough. No higher accuracy, no possibilities of hitting other enemies. If you want to include that stuff as fluff, fine.)

The last Shrubby is taken out.

BunnyA: DELETED!
BunnyB: DELETED!

-Victory!-
Prizes: 250z, Ringlog1
((Sorry, force of habit. I'm use to saying area idescription and such on another forum too.))

Dual had collected the battlechip data and the zenny as he had pocketed it away. He sighed as he could hear Zane being silent instead of the usual celebration. He didn't comment or anything since he would get the usual excuses and cherry topped explanations that the boy would use to continue. Stubborn to the very end to the most.

"Hey Zane, we'll fight one more and then jack out." Dual said trying to play along and gettinga nod from Zane. Knowing that if he would agree with Zane's actions he would most likely reach an agreement to leave since he didn't want his NetOp to drop out from being so tired that evening, but what if this battle was possibly the one that made him do so? He had to at least take a chance.

Dual had continued to walk around to see at least if he could find some mystery data to use later. He kept his wits about to be prepared for anymore incoming virii.
Looks like things are getting a bit harder for the intrepid navi! A pack of Spikeys appear from the rear, leaping over Dual's head before turning and facing their foe, as some ethereal nuisances decide to pay him a visit. Rounding things off, a small group of green bats swoop in, shrieking.

SpookyA: 50 HP
SpookyB: 50 HP
SpookyC: 50 HP
SpikeyA: 90 HP
SpikeyB: 90 HP
SpikeyC: 90 HP
SeedbatA: 50 HP
SeedbatB: 50 HP

Dual: 90 HP

-BATTLE 3! FIGHT!-
Dual had quickly caught the ground as he laid his hand on the surface while a shadow loomed over and passed as he turned into the direction of the Spikey virii. His ears had picked up the sound of the bats and his nerves had shaken a bit as he had looked to the troublesome Spooky viruses. He stood up as he had made his Edge Sword give a faint glow as he scanned the horde once again to gather his strength as well as accumulating a quick strategy to dissipate the seriousness of the situation.

"This will take some effort." The navi had said as he prepared to attack letting his weapon come to it's full glow. Dual had quickly whipped around after the weapon had charged and let an area slash aiming for the first Spooky considering that three would be more trouble than two.

His arm had quickly switched from the sword like weapon to a shotgun as he gained a smirk seeing the quick transformation meaning that his NetOp's focus hadn't drifted too far because of his tired condition. Dual had brought his arm to aim as he had fired a blast from the weapon to strike the two bat like virii since they're arrival was the latest and he could blast them as they came.

"Troublesome..." The navi muttered the word as he had kicked off trying to follow the Speedy Spikey virii's course as they moved around on the board. He didn't want to be dazed or confused by their movement considering they were fast with their moves when they attack, so he kept a continuous evasive movement from left to right to at least avoid their attacks and the Spooky virii's behind approach.

Actions & Used Chips: Luminous Edge. ShotGun, Movement/Evasion

1st Turn - Luminous Edge (70 Damage) > SpookyA

2nd Turn - Shotgun (50 Damage) > BatSeedA (+ BatSeedB)

3rd Turn - Movement/Evasion from right to left.
Dual's slash manages to catch the Spooky by surprise. The attack cuts through it, and its hat falls off slowly, almost comically. It freaks out, dashing for it before running away in shame at its bald little head. The seedbats, distracted by this strange display, are too slow to dodge the shotgun blast. A spikey takes advantage of the situation, however, firing at Dual. But always ready, the steadfast navi dodges the shot easily.

SpookyA: RAN AWAI!
SpookyB: 50 HP
SpookyC: 50 HP
SpikeyA: 90 HP
SpikeyB: 90 HP
SpikeyC: 90 HP

Dual: 90 HP
Dual had quickly caught himself as his right foot planted on the ground and his arms were spread as his right hand once again had changed form from a simple blaster to a set of claws. He brandished the long nails as he moved each of them in a trickle like he was eager to slice away using the gauntlet. His right foot kicked off as he went into action lunging at the first Spikey virii that had already finished blowing it's fiery blast. He slashed at the virii and continued to keep his pace of his quick lunge by going down the line slashing the next menacing Spikey virus that was most likely fire a shot at him.

Zane had bit his lip watching his navi as he tried to stay in tune with all the action. He was ready to load his next battlechip. But halted his action as he was being patient with his last chip not wanting to waste his melee weapon. He observed a little while longer as Dual had whipped his body around to turn on his heel and then kick himself a small step away from the Spikey viruses and gave a shift of his weight to the right to move quickly to make sure he opened the distance between him and the virii since they would have a better shot from him up close and if a Spooky attacked, they would be able to get themselves in a sucker punch in that situation. He was careful planning every scenario as it came to mind.

Actions & Chips Used: RageClaw, Movement/Evasion

1st Turn - Rage Claw (40 Damage) > SpikeyA

2nd Turn - Rage Claw (40 Damage) > SpikeyB

3rd Turn - Dodge/Movement backwards and sidestep.
Dual's wild slashing manages to hurt both Spikeys, angering them enough to fire shots at him. He sidesteps those with ease, but dodges straight into a Spookey. Eew... a licking attack. Both damaging AND gross.

SpookyA: RAN AWAI!
SpookyB: 50 HP
SpookyC: 50 HP
SpikeyA: 50 HP
SpikeyB: 50 HP
SpikeyC: 90 HP

SeedbatB: DELETED

Dual: 75 HP
Dual made sure he made the best of the moment as he took the damage. He cringed his teeth feeling the damaging strike of the virii, as well as the gross tingling feeling of something licking him. Dual had quickly swung himself around as he had made a cross slash across the Spooky like he was trying to cut it in half. He then lifted his arm as he swung around to reveal a cannon that had loaded right after his assault, his time so precise Dual was even forgetting that his partner was about to kill over because of his tiresome state.

Dual had smirked as he had felt the sheaths of his thin helmet on his head rest on his shoulders. His expression becoming that overconfident smirk once again as he clutched his wrist to fire a blast from the cannon and to the very first Spikey virus that was sitting close by before it could build momentum and finally let out another fiery attack from the maw of it's mouth. Dual himself had lowered his arm as it had reverted back to nothing more than his simple default limb as he had sprung form his position to dodge to the right in a constant sidestep since he didn't want to be struck. By any more surprise attacks...or licked at that matter.
-------------------------
Actions & Chips Used: RageClaw, Movement/Evasion

1st Turn - Rage Claw (40 Damage) > SpookyB

2nd Turn - Cannon (40 Damage) > SpikeyA

3rd Turn - Dodge/Evasive leap to the right.
The rageclaw catches the spooky, almost deleting it, and the cannon does the same to a spikey. The full health spikey attacks, but it's dodged with ease.

SpookyA: RAN AWAI!
SpookyB: 10 HP
SpookyC: 50 HP
SpikeyA: 10 HP

Dual: 75 HP

(Also, you don't have to post what you do to dodge. You just need to say you dodge.)
Dual had came out of his dodging form as he stood tall with his hand was reached behind him like he was clutching a concealed weapon. A matter of fact, he was, and it was his, Edge sword. Dual had quickly went into his signature lock on feature using his visor and whipped his right hand from behind him to whip the slashing beam of energy towards the second Spikey (SpikeyB) as he had quickly sheathed his weapon behind his back and showing his basic triple barreled Dual Gattler.

Although it was intimidating because of it's form, it was the usual buster, until it's rapidness increased and the weapon would spin like a real torrent as it shot out rounds. Dual had then smirked as he had watched the barrel spin and then let out a blast towards the first Spikey virii. He had braced as he slid back from the recoil, but he quickly recovered as he jumped to the side after kicking off once again to keep himself ready and about. He didn't want to be a klutz with a basic buster which was an embarrassing thing to see. His Gattling torrent had stopped spinning at that point as he had stayed on his toes to be ready for a quick chain of dodges from the attacks coming from the opposing virii.

3rd Turn - Dodge/Movement

((*Blinks* It seems so plain, but okay! ^_^))
The edge takes out the spikey, and the weak shot hits. Too weak to even move now, the Spikey lies down on the ground, whining pitifully. In retaliation for their companion, the spookys launch a double offensive, accidentally crashing into each other as Dual dodges, though. Even so, one of their tongues manages to give him a slight bruise (5).
The last spikey cares for its wounded companion.
