The first session.

CurseMan made up his mind and set to work aiding the canine and assaulting Red Bandana. Luckily for Red Bandana, he was paying attention, and didn't trust CurseMan much.

In the seconds he had to react, he managed to move himelf just out of the arc of the sword, pulling his arm across his body and out of the way. Then, in reflex, he pulled his gun up and aimed it at CurseMan, who did the same.

Meanwhile, Black Bandana made a false swipe and then a jab, catching his opponent with a lucky shot, as the Canine Navi shoved him off once more with the sword. "Damn. Well, deal with that punk, I'll deal with this one. And speed it up."

Curseman and Red fired off their shots at roughly the same time. Red got a body full of shotgun debris, while Curseman was shot backwards and into the air. Red pulled out yet another gun, ready to shoot CurseMan, until he saw that the Cat navi had pulled out a shield, and thought better of it. Instead, he crouched back down behind a rockcube and lined up his aim with CurseMan.

The Cat Navi plummeted to the earth unharmed. He stood behind his shield, covered from fire while granting him a moment to think or speak.

Clearly seeing that his skill with melee weapons wasn't quite as good as Black's were, the canine Navi allowed the sword to melt out of his hand, and instead fired a Bubble at his opponent, which surprisingly enough hit him.

"Hey dogface, you're gunna pay for that." Black Bandana, now all wet, said, as the claws receded. He then pulled out a sword, and held it over his head, staring his target down.

CurseMan remained behind his shield for now...

Shortly after curseman landed and had taken his defensive position, he quickly looked around to get a bearing on where he had been flung to. It seemed that at this point he was stuck in between the two bandana's, which could turn out very bad very quickly. Paying a bit more attention to the black bandana however, Curseman could see he was a bit preoccupied with the canine navi of which he was fighting.

This left a question as to what he should do.

Rei looked at the scenario, trying to plot the safest route for curseman to deal with these navi's. On the one hand he could focus on red and hope that the dog could defend himself and deal with black. On the otherhand, if they dealt with black now they could finish off red quite easily right after. Since curseman still had his sheild he could probably make a move against black while staying safe from red's long range attacks for the time being, or so he hoped.

"Curse, take black out from behind. face your shield towards red so he cant see what your doing, and given his earlier reaction he most likely wont fire recklessly at you either. this is the best chance right now." He ordered to curseman in a private channel. Obviously he didnt need the opponents to hear the two of them plotting.

"You got it Rei. Consider him as good as skewered nyaa."

With that, curseman began to take off to within striking range of black. His movements were a little slower thanks to the shield, but for now it was a necessity. He tried to keep the defensive wall in the way of him and red, attempting to prevent him from getting a chance to see anything really. And while black had his back turned to him and focused on his first adversary, the wide sword struck out aiming to slash the navi in half.

Of course, if this did fail curseman would be left wide open if he didn't act. The feline attempted to stay fully alert, preparing to jump out of the way if black some how survived the assault and counter attacked. It wasn't a perfect plan but with his location it was the best he could do right now.

Summary:

Guard1

Widesword (80 dmg + slash) @ black bandana

dodge
CurseMan made his way forward with the shield covering his back. Unfortunately this part of his plan wouldn't go very well.

Red Bandana was apparently pretty bright. He pulled out yet another gun and fired quickly at CurseMan before moving sideways to avoid the counterstrike, eliminating CurseMan's shield. He alerted his ally, too, of CurseMan's approach. "Hey bud, watch your back."

Unfortunately this warning wasn't enough. Despite fighting to survive, between the blast of energy shot at him from the canine in front of him and the sword coming at him from behind, he didn't have a chance. It was a little foggy and unclear as to which attack did him in, but when they resolved, he was unfortunately EJO'd.

Well, unfortunately for him and his buddy, that is. Said buddy then fired a shot at Curseman, who dodged it, and lied back against the Rockcubes in order to cover himself from return fire.

"Thanks for the help." CurseMan's dog-like ally said. "Not that I needed it."

Looking back at the rock cube wall, he started speaking again. "But we still have one left, so don't let up yet."

Curseman shot a glare towards the dog after the unnecessary comment about not needing him, but shrugged it off and looked towards where red was hiding. He could deal with the canine later if need be. " tch, i already knew that. Just dont fall behind, Nyaa, and try to destract him." curseman said as he took off towards the wall. The feline navi kept his body lower to the ground as he dashed forth, hoping that the closer he got to the wall the harder it would be for the bandana to see him as he headed for the left side. Hoping the dog could give curseman some cover, as he neared he tried to be as silent as possible while still keeping a decent pace.

"Alright curseman, time to ambush him. We'll show him what happen's when he hides like a rat in a wall, against a cat. Next battle chip ready."

Curseman snuck up along the edge of the left side of the wall, silently moving, as stealthy as he could possibly be. All the while a burning heat was growing upon his left arm, his own ethereal flames adding to the mix. the Firehit1 was ready.

As quickly as he possibly could curseman dove out sideways behind the wall, facing toward the bandana, his arm cocked back as his instinct's took over the guide the attack. When he was certain he would hit, he let a vicious left hook into the air to release the blazing punch at bandana red. hoping all the while he had done a well enough job to set him up anyways.

Just incase though, curseman was prepared to do a quick roll and hopefully jump out of the way if an on coming attack. He didn't feel like getting struck any time soon.

Summary:

1. strategic sneaking to get around the wall and hopefully surprise red bandana.

2. Firehit1 (60 + 5 fire) + snipe @ red bandana

3. Dodge
The Canine type navi nodded, and then decided to handle himself first. With an exhalation, he was engulfed by a cool mist which seemed revitalize him.

"Hey, creep, why don't you come out here and fight me like a man!" He hollered at Red Bandana. As Red Bandana raised his head, he quickly took note of CurseMan, being, as hes previously been noted, quite observant and rather intelligent.

The dog type navi pulled up a hand to fire a blast of some sort at Red Bandana, but the navi didn't plan on going down without a fight. "Not so fast!" he shouted, as he pulled out his trump card, a small automatic weapon, vaguely reminiscent of an Uzi.

Glancing between his two enemies, he quickly unloaded the gun, with little attention to his current safety. As the lead flew, both CurseMan and the white dog navi were hit twice. While this did totally throw off his allies aim, causing him to miss horrendously, CurseMan was slightly more ready.

Red Bandana, now somewhat tired looking, didn't have enough time to make it out of the way. As CurseMan hopped the wall and raised his fist, the Red Bandana smiled and shook his head. "You were a tool after all." These, however, were his last words for now, as CurseMan punched him out of the net, activating his EJO protocol immediately.

"Nice work!" Called CurseMan's living ally from right behind him, leaping over the wall as well. He collected the Reward Data and looked it over. "I suppose I'll give you a small portion for your help."

CurseMan was then handed the gun chip which had just injured the two of them so decently, in addition to a decent sum of zenny.

"Now if you'll excuse me..." he began, as he started walking off. If CurseMan did still have a question or two, though, he was still close enough to be spoken to and asked.

"hey! curseman, stop him from leaving for a sec, we got some questions for him remember?" rei called out to his navi, who was already on the move to catch up the the canine. They still need to know why the hell this all happened, or atleast who this guy was.

"Oi! where you going? If i remember correctly, you owe us an answer after the battle. Which i do believe, i just defeated the last of your problems. Think you can drop us an explanation or atleast an introduction? Nyaa!"

Curseman was still trying to "play nice" knowing full well Rei would scold him if the navi took off cus of him. he didn't know exactly just how long he could keep it up tho. He didn't exactly trust this navi still, and his attitude was less than pleasing, so he continued to stay on his guard trying to stay ready for anything.

Still, all this aside curseman was quite happy with his new data he received from his temporary assistant. A mini-gatling gun was just what a frenzied curseman always wanted for virus busting. It would definitely be fun.
"I don't owe you anything." the navi said quickly. "But I'll be nice and give you an answer anyways."

Turning around, he faced the navi that was questioning him. "The Name's...Well, you can call me Lucky, and as for the reason that I was after those two, well, they're bad people. I've caught 'em doing things wrong in a regular basis, various minor or major crimes, from vandalism to theft. I caught 'em stealing Today when they saw me they turned tail and ran, shoving people down and out of their way, and not even caring. Of course I chased them here and that's when you saw me first."

He considered turning to leave again, but changed his mind and asked a question of his own. "So, what'll you be going by?"
Curseman and rei just blinked and paused.

"lucky..."

"the canine"

(unison) "you gotta be kidding me!"

The two were definitely weirded out by the turn of event's, which had practically seemed like a slap in the face to curseman's whole being.as if everything that had already hadn't been weird enough today, this totally drew the line. Curseman let out a heavy sigh and decided to reply to everything else that had been said, regardless of the twilight happening's here.

" well whatever... a fights a fight i guess, nyaa, even ifit had nothing to do with me. Good thing i picked the right side i suppose. As for a name... It's Curse, nyaa." he spoke trying not to make it sound like some kind of joke that had gone terribly wrong. this whole day just wasn't right. absolutely bizarre, and full of weirdo's. this was the last time Rei and curseman would ever jack into a random street post ever again, that was for sure.
In response to "You gotta be kidding me!" Lucky casually commented "Nope, that's about right," looking over them curiously.

"Hm, ironic I guess." was his response to Curseman stating his name.

"Anyways, I'm off now." He said, as he walked away once more.
"ugh... ok i guess this is enough for today then, curse. Let's just jack out before anything else goes wrong today." As he spoke curseman began his venture to the safety of his PET. it had been a fairly long day for him. he was just going to relax, and leave it at that.
