Lucia's Adventures in ACDC

With a light giggle the fiery navi formed in a small spin once her beam connected with network floor. " Re-entry complete master. Shall I start exploring now?"

"Go ahead, but keep your guard up, I don't want any mistakes while your busy singing again." "Hey! That was just a lucky shot! Humph!" Ordering up a second glass of hot tea, Vincent leaned back and clicked on the holo screen on his PET, keeping an eye on his humming, skipping navi as she traveled the net.

"Sorry to bug ya Lucia, just wanted to see where you were."
"Vincent, please no more random jack outs. It hurts."
"Don't worry. Lets jack out now."
"Ok, LETS GO!"

(Jack Out)
Lucia dropped into ACDC once again, with Blazeman popping in to see how she's doing. Seeing that everything's all right, he jacked out to leave her with her viral company: a couple of Metools and a new virus, which was a threateningly-hovering purple PulseBat.

MetoolA: 40HP

-BATTLE ONE, FIGHT!!-
Vincent turned his gaze upon Cole over cup of tea as he sipped thoughtfully, not even bothering to give reaction nor response as the youth came and went, like the wind. Shaking his head lightly, a horrid thought.

"Lucia, deal with the little ones quickly, the bat might be more troublesome."

"Yes sir!" Without hesitation the fiery navi took to her toes and started to spring off to the left, trying to make a quick sprint In an arc and get herself in line with the two ground bound opponents. Vincent slipped in the first of two chips he'd taken from his pack at belt. "Shotgun, Guard1." And with that took another sip of his tea to watch the battle unfold.

"Perfect master!" replied the navi in faint song as the twin barrels arrived in a fiery flash above her wrist as if they'd always been part of her design. Giving only slight pause to steady her aim she released the blast towards her aligned targets. Just as quickly as the barrels formed they melted away back into the flames about her wrist. While other arm drew up, falling victim to a soft giggling as the large met hat materialized between her and her enemies. "It's so cute!"


Summary:
1. Tactical movement [curving run to line up with both Metool A & B]
2. Shotgun [Battlechip] 50 damage + Spread1 @ Metool A & B
3. Guard1 [Battlechip] 1-hit Shield + Reflect up to 60 + Piercing + Line Attack [defense between self and virii]
Picking off the first two Metools with a quick Shotgun blast to their faces, Lucia was off to a great start. Her Guard was also timely, as the Pulsebat's sonic blast reached her position and was reflected off it.

" Eek!" Squeaked the little navi, only to give a growl and glare up towards the little bat. "I liked that shield!"

"Then deal with it, Sol's Needle." After he'd slide the Cannon chip into his Pet, "This should finish it off.

Lucia responded quickly to her orders, tugging an arrow from her quiver as she knelt low and took aim at the little air bound enemy. "Your so not cute at all!" With faint sparks the bow string released it's arrow, sending the blazing bolt towards it's target.

Not but a moment after the arrow was released did a small burst of fire envelop the bow, replacing it with a thick barrel of the cannon chip she'd been sent. With no hesitation, she fired it quickly after the arrow towards the bat virus.

Summary:
1. Take Aim
2. Sol's Needle [Signature] 40 Fire Damage [shot] @ PulseBat
3. Cannon [Battlechip] 40 Null Damage + Knockback @ PulseBat
A burning arrowhead stabbed Lucia's foe straight in a leathery wing, causing it to screech in pain. Her cannon, however, did not hit it as it escaped up towards the skies to tend to its wounds.

Lucia gave a scowl when her shot missed its mark, huffing after the little bat creature. "Oh like hell! Master!" Already the navi was kneeling low, just waiting for the command.

"Hm? Very well, go after it." Taking a last sip of his tea, Vincent slots in the last of his chips with a slight smirk, She gets upset far to easily...

With permission given the navi started to call forth the unseen winds of the network, letting the flows gather around her frame, fluffing hair and causing the flames about her to rage violently. Giving off a growl the navi threw herself into the air, the added airstep launching her towards the sky bound bat.

As she took to the sky right arm absorbed the new chip, twin blades bursting forth atop her wrist, erupting from the fiery glow as she approached her target. "Just die already!!" With her final cry the navi swiped the blades broadly at the Pulse Bat, only to give it another quick thrust just to make sure the job was done.

Summary:
1. Jump + Airstep [Ability] into high altitude towards PulseBat.
2. Rageclaw [Battlechip] 20 Null Damage + Impact [Melee] @ PulseBat.
3. Rageclaw [Battlechip] 40 Null Damage + Slashing @ PulseBat.
The bat quickly died by way of a harsh slam into it with Lucia's RageClaw, after which it fell to the ground and disintegrated into remnants of what the virus was. Reward data awaited her, once she fell to the ground.

Lucia gave a soft huff as she came to a firm landing upon the network floor. Scowling as she started to collect the data that was left behind to add to their currency, muttering lowly under her breath the whole time.

"And just what is troubling you Lucia?"

"It didn't even drop its data for me! Stupid little bat!" Giving a soft kick to disperse the left over data after all the coins were collected she'd take a moment to give her hair a flick.

"Your just upset you missed it, it happens get over it." Vincent took a moment to collect the data and add it to his current account total, "Lets continue on."

"Hai! Yes master.." Giving another annoyed stomp, Lucia would quickly restore her more cheerful demeanor and start skipping along the network in search of more entertainment.

((Requesting Battle 2))
Moving on through the ACDC network, Lucia found herself face-to-face with a rather deep ravine, barred on either side with cracked tiles that looked as if they would drop into the abyss at any time. Viruses, a couple of cacti and rodents, were on the other side, threatening to attack her, but they couldn't reach her... could they?

-BATTLE TWO, FIGHT!!-
Lucia's skipping came to a halt when she found herself standing before a broken pathway. "What in the world.. Wow! It's so deep!" She'd have leaned over to look down but the virii beyond the fall caught her attention. Huffing out lightly at the little bunnies and.. Whatever those things were, "Master, what are those things?.."

"Short answer, they are cacti, usually found in a desert. But they shouldn't be able to reach you for now, deal with the bunnies." Shaking his head at the screen he'd slit in a chip. "Strike both, then get across the chasm. Ride the edge before jumping, should get you across."

The little navi gave a soft squeak, about to protest when the barrels of her new weapon began to form atop her wrist. "Ah, right! Yes master!" Stepping closer to the crater to get a better shot, the navi let those twin cannons fire off across the hole towards the little rodents.

Her gaze shifting down below as she steps onto one of the cracked panels taking faith in hand Lucia eased onto one of the lose pieces and knelt low ready to jump, if it were possible the navi swallowed hard as the panel started to tilt and break away. Waiting for that moment she was at a better angle, she kicked off hard, a blast of wind aiding her leap to send her sailing over the hole.

Not waiting longer then his navi's leap, Vincent sent her another chip, his gaze focused on the holo screen. "Use that to keep yourself from falling if you miss, otherwise, strike the Cacti."

"Understood master!" the fiery navi called out as the barrels atop her wrist seemed to melt down and reform themselves into twin claw-like blades. She had no doubts her leap would fail to take her across the pit, so her aim instead turned onto the green virii. Giving a mock roar more befitting the beast her claws originally belonged as she gave a slash at the twin plants.

Summary:
1. Shotgun [Battlechip] 50 Null Damage + Spread1 @ Bunny A & B
2. Tactical Movement [Jump + Airstep] Across the abyss.
3. Rageclaw1 [Battlechip] 20 Null Damage + Impacting @ Cacty A & B
((The Impact damage is when you hit/throw something with the claws, not slash. We like to call it a gigantic bitchslap.))

Bringing a gun to level with the rodent viruses, Lucia managed to squeeze off a shot, and hit one of the Bunny with ease. That made the other scramble around in terror, firing its electrical ring at her. But she was already off among the clouds, ignoring the Cacty's hurled heads and sending her claws across both the Cacty.

((Thank you for the correction, was misunderstanding the chip))
Vincent frowned when he noticed one of the bunnies escaped his desired goal, though that was rectified easily enough, slotting in another chip as he took in some info on the new virii type. "Lucia, guard yourself as you take the bunny. Grab it and throw it over the edge with your claws. Also, the Cacty are wood."

On the net, Lucia couldn't contain the faint giggle as her new shield materialized against her arm. Bracing it up as she charged the bunny that remained. With claw's still on hand she thrust forward and tried to catch the little rodent by ear, Intending to throw it down that pit that she'd leapt over previously.

The other information she took to heart right away, without missing a beat that throwing arm slipped around and tugged an arrow from her quiver. Turning her sights on the closest Cacty as she focused her fiery spirit into the arrow, letting it fly. "Burn burn little plant!" The flames took a slight delay, bursting brilliantly just seconds before reaching its intended target.

Summary:
1. Guard1 [Battlechip] 1-hit Shield +Reflect up to 60
2. Rageclaw [Battlechip] 20 Null Damage + Impact @ Bunny B [Attempt to throw into the pit]
3. Sol's Needle [Signature] 40 Fire Damage @ Cacty A
Shielding herself with a golden Met-Guard, Lucia thrust her claws towards a Bunny and hurled it into the abyss, the rodent squeaking in horror as it went. The Cacty flung their heads Lucia-ways, but one hit the Guard. The other was not so lucky as it was flambe'd with a flaming arrowhead.

Lucia gave a soft cheer as the plant virus burst into flames and turned to digital ash. Her gaze turned to the last remaining Cacty. "How shall I kill you.."

"You've all you need for it already, I'm sure you'll figure it out Lucia." Turning his gaze from the screen, he'd get up long enough to get a glass of water before sitting back down in the coffee shop to see just what the navi would do.
Lucia stared dumbly for a second or two before grinning towards the virus.

"Well come on then little head-ball thingy!" The fiery navi braced herself and secured her stance to await the virus' attack. Once that head started to roll, she'd wait it out before giving a slash with her claws to attempt to dice it to ribbons. A second slash followed the first, just in case she happened to miss.

Summary:
1. Strategic Movement [Brace and wait for attack]
2. Rageclaw1 [Battlechip] 40 Null Damage + Slashing @ CactyB [3/6 remaining]
3. Rageclaw1 [Battlechip] 40 Null Damage + Slashing @ CactyB [2/6 remaining]

"Ha! Take that ya stupid plant!" With a soft hum of an all to familiar victory tune the fiery navi skipped over to start collecting the left behind data. "So how did I do master?"

Vincent was silent for now as he placed the blank chip into his PET to download the chip data, only to quirk his brow at the info that came up about the thing. "Interesting.. You did just fine."

A shame the fiery navi didn't hear him, for the moment that data downloaded her frame suddenly burst into flames. The fiery glow was short, startling Lucia as she gave a soft cry. Soon however, as that glowing flame died away, she took the time to look at herself. "I-I.. What just happened? I feel.. I don't know, stronger, or something."

Her operator's reaction was far less surprised and more thrilled with the brief but sudden eruption. "It would seem my dear navi, you've grown stronger, very good.. Yes, very good. Let us continue on my dear. And see just what else you can find here on this network."

"Yes sir!" Lucia chimed in, now quite thrilled with the event she took to her usual cheerful skipping through the network. Passed broken panels and deeper into the net.

((Requesting Battle 3))
Moving on into the ACDC frontier, Lucia found herself in a less damaged area, but the floor was still cracked in some places, and she could fall if she wasn't careful. Then, in front of her, she found a group of viruses hankering to get a piece of her data. Black, bouncing note-shaped viruses and brown round tank-viruses strolled up to the Navi, all smug-like, and prepared for assault.

-BATTLE THREE, FIGHT!!-
Lucia came to a halt and blinked at all the virii that had come out to confront her, frowning faintly to herself and shaking head to turn that frown to a cute, innocent smile. "Hiya cuties!!" With that she'd skip a step off to her left and start moving across the field to start things off defensively.

"The notes pounce, beware of them and the bombs the others fire." Deciding to give the new chip a test, he'd slot that, and their trusted met hat into place to send to the lone navi in her newest battle.

Giving a soft squeak mid step of run as the green ball formed itself in her hand, though a smile came when her shield materialized at her arm. "So uh, just what the hell do I do with this thing master!?" The question just brought a soft chuckle from Vincent, shrugging shoulders after. "Roll it, throw it, hell kick it I don't care. The second melody."

"Ah, yes sir!!" the idea seemed sound enough to her, but she wanted to add a little something extra to the attack. Giving a soft bounce in the air the navi turned her sights on the virus and dropped the ball. Bringing in a sweep of leg, the fiery little navi gave a swift kick to the green orb, sending it bounding down the way towards its objective, speed added with an extra little impact of gust just to knock the virus senseless should it connect.

Summary:
1. Dodge [to the left of the virus group]
2. Guard1 [Battlechip] 1-hit shield + Reflect up to 60
* Gust [Ability] One instance of Knockback
