Puppetmaster

Freya, needless to say, was disappointed in her attacks, not to mention getting bombed by one of the viruses was not as pleasant as one might think. Crap. Not as I had planned. Freya mumbled obviously, looking down at her wound, it wasn't huge, but it did splinter her side a bit. It's a wonder how I didn't end up with a hole in my side... Freya thought quickly as she snapped back to the viruses. Give me a One-Two combo, Jack. Freya said hastily, mentally taking aim at the viruses as usual. As usual, she heard two clicks from her PET, though one of the chips was familiar to her, the other wasn't. Elem...Wood...? she mumbled before shaking her head and readying herself.

Quickly bolting from her position yet again, Freya activated her new chip, ElemWood, taking aim at the viruses, Freya turned her palm up at the viruses, aiming to line the viruses up as she quickly fired off a small line of green gas towards the viruses, grass panels growing in it's wake. Freya stared in amazement at the attack, she had never seen a battle chip attack and change panels types before, but just shook her head again and continued her attack.

Activating her other chip, the Fireburn1, she slowly took aim again at the viruses, her arm turning a soft red color as she clenched her hand and raised her arm to the viruses height, her arm quietly rumbled before launching its self at the three remaining viruses, scorching the grass as it launched, on a collision course with the viruses. Her arm returned to her shortly after wards, singed like last time, but still functioning nonetheless.

Take aim at group of viruses
-Add Seeking to Fireburn1
Fireburn1--->KabutankA&B and Spikey (50 FireX2 if on grass panels, Line attack)

Taking the chance to attack, Freya moved around to the side of the viruses, lining them up before using her new "ElemWood" chip, the gas taking the two Kabutanks by surprise while the Spikey howled as it leaped out of the way.

Switching to the Fireburn next as the Kabutanks turned to face her, the puppet smirked as she scorched the viruses to death.

Now it was a one-on-one fight.

Alright mutt...down to you and me. Freya said, somewhat enthusiasticlyas she stared down the Spikey, awaiting the chance to attack. Give me the Shotgun, Pulsar1 and Energybomb. Freya requested, her operator was a little confused as to why she'd want that useless chip. Why would you want the- Jack started but was promptly cut off by his navi. Just give me the chips damnit! Freya shouted at her netop, Jack relented as he fished the energybomb out of his pocket, and some lint ironically, and sent the chips to Freya.

Time to put down the dog... the puppet thought as she summoned up a small ball in her hand, it was plated with small charges all around it, ready to go off if a significant impact happened. Freya judged the Spikey's distance from her current position as she kept the virus locked on in her mind as she brought her arm back a little and then flung the energybomb towards the virus, hoping that it would hit as she prepared her next attacks.

Accessing her next chips, Pulsar1 and Shotgun, she quickly ran around to the side of the Spikey, preping her Pulsar1 to fire at her command, she quickly took aim at the lone spikey and fired off a large sonic pulse at the Spikey, seeing it ready to seek out the virus. She soon after held up her palm towards the virus, gathering the Shotgun data into it as she fired off a thin shot of energy, an audiable "bang" sounded as her arm recoiled from the shot, she waited to see if the spikey was finally gone so she could continue through the net.

Energybomb--->Spikey (40X3)
Tactical movement to the side of the spikey

-Shot type accuracy +1 rank (passive cursor type ability)
Shotgun--->Spikey (50+spread1)

With only the Spikey remaining, Freya tossed a well-aimed EnergyBomb at the agile virus. It dodged to the right, but the initial blast of the bomb caught it and caused it to trip. As it tried to get up, Freya locked on to the virus and and fired both a Shotgun and a Pulsar at it. They did not miss. Though really, why would they?

Finally. Freya breathed as she picked up the rewards from her fight, some zenny and a fire elemental chip. Heatshot...could come in handy down the road... Freya mumbled as she continued on down the net, looking for her next encounter.

(battle 5, 90HP)

(bumpabump)

Freya moved on into ACDC, searching for more viruses. As she did so, however, her senses picked up something akin to someone following her. Looking around yielded nothing, but after a while, Freya caught a glimpse of a Navi hiding around some cubes scattered around the net. It looked short enough to be a child, but she couldn't be sure. The Navi seemed to be in a few places at once. Then, a voice sang quietly.

Puppet, puppet
Won't you play with me
Puppet, puppet
Stay around, don't flee
Puppet, puppet
Won't you play with me..

-BATTLE FIVE HAS NOT STARTED-

Interesting... Freya mumbled, looking over the field, rock cubes all around, and someone behind them. Whats going on Freya? Something wrong? Jack said as he looked at the field from his PET, nothing but Rock Cubes...something in the back of his mind sent him warning signals. Careful Freya...something about this doesn't seem right... the magi whispered to his navi, fingers firmly curled around the the two Rageclaw chips in his pack.

I'm moving in. Pay attention for any movment from behind the rock cubes...and get ready with those Rageclaw chips... The marionette whispered to her netop as she took a couple steps towards the Rock Cube formation. Fine child. If you want to play, then lets play. I do have a warning for you...this "puppet" plays rough. Freya said as she readied herself for combat.

As Freya readied herself for battle, she found the childish voice to have come from.. a child Navi. A small Normal Navi model, shrunk into a petite kid-sized height. The Navi had jumped up onto one of the rock cubes and was dangling his feet around while singing a song, presumably directed to Freya. His face was looking down.

Puppet, puppet
Playtime's fun with me
Puppet, puppet
Just you wait and see!

The song kept repeating, and soon it felt like the singing was coming from everywhere. Sure enough, looking around revealed not one, not two, but three child Navis singing around him and dangling their feet happily. Then, the Navis looked up simultaneously at the puppet Navi. They brought up their busters to their hands, and immediately, a green cannon appeared on each of their busters.

Come on, let's play~!

-BATTLE FIVE, FIGHT!!-

Crap... Freya mumbled at herself, thinking she may have to remove the rock cubes, she instead gets surrounded by a child. Could a child really be in three places at once? No, it had to be a trick. Freya quickly shook her head and darted from her position, running away from her position as she quickly zigged and zagged, heading towards a nearby Rock Cube, jumping onto it as she did before turning to face the navis.
It's a platry Illusion trick, Freya, I of all people should know how a person can be in three places at once. I can't figure out the HP value of any of them...guess it comes with the illusion... Jack said to his navi, in a matter of factly tone as he thumbed through his chips, pulling out the Wideshot. Try hitting them all, at least one should take damage, and the illusions should disapear as well. Jack finished as he slotted in the chip he was holding, as well as his recover30 chip.

Upon being slotted in, her arm silently glew a deep blue color, throbbing slightly as the power of water entered into her body, ready to be used. No more than a couple seconds later Freya felt a healing wave of energy flood over her body, recovering her vitality completely as she readied her weapon to attack. Taking aim at the navi, she quickly brought her arm back behind her and in one swift motion, threw it in front of her, her arm spinning silently in the air as a wave a pressurized water flew forth at the navi, the wave ready to follow the child's movments and crash into him...or at the least, his doppelgangers. Quickly reacting to a possible counter attack, Freya jumped off behind the rock cube and hid as she ran from her new position, out into the opening, in an attempt to avoid the navi's attacks.

Aaah! the little Navi screamed as the Wideshot began its movements, hitting two of them. One of them seemed to dissipate on contact with the shot, but re-appeared somewhere else. The other didn't disappear, and got damaged. The copies then started moving around again, dashing from cube to cube, playing a sort of hide-and-seek. They were moving around so fast that Freya couldn't tell which one of them was the one she had hit earlier, and she was back to square one.

Catch me if you can, puppet!

Damn it. Freya swore, when she thought she had the navi, he summoned up another doppelganger and fled behind the rock cubes. Freya had to do something about the rock cubes before things got out of hand. Jack, send me the Rageclaw1. I think I managed to see which of the rock cubes the navi and his clones hid behind. Jack nodded as he slotted the chip in, waiting to see what Freya would do with it.

Alright child. Time to play for real. Freya thought to herself as she accessed the data, protruding from her hands, five large, serrated and sharp claws shot out like lightning, wooden in nature, they'd be sufficient for what Freya had in mind. Come out, come out wherever you are boy. You're going to get spanked for being such a bad little boy, considering that picking on your elders has some...dire...consequences. Freya said as she dashed over towards one of the rock cubes, thinking all the while. One is always seperated from the other two, at least two rock cube langths away...that has to be the real one...

Reaching the Rock cube, Freya quickly launched her claws into the side of it, using all her strength, Freya proceeded to try and lift the cube above her head, to reveal the navi behind it. Cube in hand, she proceeded to step forward and attempted to smash the rock onto the head of the child navi, jumping backwards in case the child had something planned for her behind the cube.

Nyeh, nyeh, you're not the boss of me, puppet! the Navi said. Suddenly, as Freya lifted a cube behind which one of the copies hid, a cube came flying towards her as well!! Fortunately, she had the right mind to jump backwards, letting the cube run straight in front of her. Turning to the left would reveal the child, smoking Cannon in hand. At the same time, the cube Freya had brought down smashed the copy she was aiming for, but it re-appeared behind the remains of the cube.

Hee..hee-hee, the Navi stuttered. It seems that he had made a slight fault in his aiming, and had hit the cube instead of Freya.

So there you are child... Freya said as she turned her head towards the navi that fired upon her, standing there, laughing nervously. Got you. She said as she dashed towards one of the RockCubes that haden't been destroyed as of yet. With her Rageclaw outstreatched, she sent the claws into the RockCube's side, lifting it high above her head, she turned to the child and promptly threw it as hard as she could, sending the cube flying at the navi, though it seemed to have a mind of it's own as it flew through the air.

Turning back to the cubes, Freya rushed over to the next closest RockCube she could find and promptly stuck her claws into the side of it as well, lifting it overhead as per last time, she threw it as hard as possible at another RockCube, hoping the impact would be sufficiant enough to destroy each other.

Turning to the last one that she had yet to destroy, she just shrugged it off. Not like he'd be able to hide behind it forever, but a thought came into the back of her mind that told her to destroy the damned thing. So following her instincts, Freya ran over to the final cube, stuck her claws into it's side, and with one final heave, tossed it downwards at the child's illusion. She probably wouldn't be able to hit the real one from her current distance anyways. Jumping to her senses, Freya began to run around the area like a mad woman in an attempt to dodge the navi's attacks.

Freya the puppet turned to Freya the maniac as she threw some rocks around, turning the battlefield into a small-scale armageddon. The child Navi was, of course, caught in the crossfire, and damaged quite critically. He was now quite battered, and lying down helplessly on the ground. Turning his head towards his playmate, he coughed slightly.

*cough* "That was really fun, p-puppet. What's your- *cough* name?"

We're out of Rockcubes, thank you very much.

Freya, turning her head to the child, disengaged her rageclaw and walked over to her foe, kneeling down as she did. The name is Freya.exe child. Seems like I went a little overboard though. Allow me to heal you, we both know this netbattle is done. Freya said as she materialized a handfull of strings, sending them to do their work as the strings currled up around her foe. This may hurt. But it should return you to fighting strength. Freya continued as the stringed wrapped around the navi's more serious wounds, tightening and sinking into the navi's body, disapearing into his body and repairing his data.
Silently requesting the Recover30 chip from Jack, he promptly sent it to her as she created a small ball of glowing energy and sending it into the navi's body, recovering his wounds further. Now, would you tell me your name? Now that I have told you mine and healed you to boot, child? Freya asked still kneeling in front of the child.

Overview
Stringwork--->ChildNavi (30 heal)
Recover30--->ChildNavi (30 heal)

As Freya starts to fix up the child Navi, he starts to protest, but the first batch of healing goes through anyway. The second ball of healing energy, however, the child rejected, and he looked at the puppet and winked.

*cough* I can't tell you- *cough* my name... my brothers wouldn't *cough* like it... but if you want, *cough* you can come here anytime and play with us three, okay?

The Navi then scrambled around for a bit, before standing up feebly. He took out a data sphere, glowing yellow in his hands. Here, I don't need this. You take it, the child said before running off somewhere and turning into a shape of light, the same shape of light that is produced when one jacks out.
