Training On Patrol

Curse those highly rude viruses, attacking before Daisy could even respond to her allies. Hell, the remains of her attacks haven't even returned to her. Well, with the chance of this happening again in the future, Daisy decided to not make a deal out of it and started to take a closer gander of the situation.

The navi was unsure how the flying viruses attack, but she could guess the explosions from earlier came from the tank like things. Those viruses could shred trough her and her allies shields, bur at least Daisy had something much greater then a shield. The blood that almost returned to her before this bout started traveled up her legs and solidified. This amount, only covering her legs, was not enough. Needing more, blood oozed out of the rest of her body, solidifying into a sheet of armor, and just that. With this up there would be no need for her other defenses, the blood wielding navi thought.

"Seems I should be paying more attention, could have sworn you would have cleared them out by now." Daisy heard in her head, being a bit shocked by there now randomly being a voice in her head, until she realized it was most likely Virgil talking to hr trough a private channel.

"We did, but another group showed up and rudely attacked us before I could even respond to Cypher and Enjolie." Daisy responded over whatever channel Virgil happened to have been using. Virgil was a bit confused as to whom those two were, that was until he actually noticed the navi near Daisy.

"Seems I should really be paying more attention, can't believe I missed the fact there was someone with you. Well, I guess I introduce myself to your new friends when things get less hectic. So, for the time being I'll just send you this wideshot, DBLbeam, and some ranged stuff." Virgil told his navi, slotting in 4 chips. It was now time for Daisy to join Cypher on the attack against this group of foes.

Daisy looked past the first group of viruses, and focused her glaze on the tanks in the back. While the so called 'fishys' are more of a threat to her, the tanks could pose to be a great problem to her ally. So she decided to target them with a single attack, the wideshot that was sent to her. Raising her hand at the tank like foes, some of the blood that had became her armor broke off. This blood, now floating in front of Daisy's hand, changed shape to become longer and thinner until it looked like a long sheet of red material. With a quick snap of her fingers, this sheet soared at the most unique of the tanks. The sheet was long enough that with enough luck, it could probably catch more in it's path then just it's intended target. The next chip at her dispose, well... as far as she can remember it can be a bit random. It does have the potential of shifting the fight more in their favor, but it could very well end up being a useless move. Well, it seems Daisy is willing to take that risk.

"Lets she if this will be helpful." Daisy told the futuristic looking navi, using the second of the chips Virgil sent. A small glass ball appeared out of the air in front of Daisy, and stayed fixated to that point in space. After a second, beams of blue light flashed from the object. Without warning, the color of the lighting changed from blue to red, and back to blue. This kept going at a rapid pace, but started to slow down in the rate of color swaping. Not going to wait for the orb to decide on a color, Daisy pointed at two of the flying viruses. Using the two Markcannons she had received, a small amount of blood fired from her fingertips right at her targets. After this act of finger shooting, the orb stopped it changing of colors and the orb started to do its thing.

After musing over the viruses' plotting prowess, Cypher decides to make the first move, firing his cannon at one of the Fishy. The blast connects and Cypher quickly follows up the attack with a Shotgun, the blast tracking down the wounded fishy and taking it out, along with a Beetank positioned behind it. He then put up a shield for his protection. Daisy then decides to do her part, launching of red water at the Beetanks group, taking down one small virus and harming the beefed up model. She then uses a weird, flashing cube, which finally turns blue, healing the pair of navis for the whole 0 damage they received. She fires two tracking shots at one of the fishy, taking it out. The virus group then takes the offensive. A Fishy dashes at, and then through, Daisy, her shadow ability keeping her from harm. One of the Beetanks fires a bomb into Cypher, though his shield takes the hit.

...That was real useful...

This was the only real thought that went trough Daisy's mind. Her gambit on the DLBeam failed, and did nothing to help this battle. At least her other actions managed to weaken the opposing forced enough that simple attacks can finish them off. The blood used for her defense, instead of letting it go to waste, she reused. The blood in the front reshaped itself into a simple shield, where as the back formed a protective bubble around her. Looking at her foes, she thought that she should finish off one group, and Cypher finish off the other. While she could handle either of the two groups, she was unsure of her ally. She has only seen him use two kinds of attacks, and she did not know what else he could do. Well, he seem smart... he might have something to use for when things get close up. Daisy thought to herself. If she could get Cypher up close, he might have something to use to finish off the tanks at least... Well, she could at least prepare to get him close to the tanks and ask before getting him there.

"Virgil, may I have the rageclaw please?" the bloody navi requested.

"Since you asked nicely." He responded, slotting in the requested chip. Instead of claws randomly coming out of her hands, the only thing that appeared was blood on her palms. She then turned to Cypher.

"Cypher, I think I have a plan... If I throw you at the tanks could you finish them off? I'll make sure to take care of the other things." Daisy asked her ally. After getting Cypher's answer, Daisy grabbed the navi by the waist. Using the strength from the chip, she hosted the navi off the ground and lobbed him at one of the tanks. Even if Cypher... missed... the target, he would be close enough to engage it in melee, which is probably not a strong point of the virus in the first place.

Cypher tensed as one of the bug-like tanks took aim and unleashed an explosion of cannon fire. A steel ball hurdled through the air and collided with Cypher's shield, the sphere disintegrating in a wave of flames and shrapnel that washed around the Navi. Cypher was unharmed and his shield was still intact, but the blast had been devastatingly powerful. If his shield hadn't been up, he would be nothing more than a smear across the floor.

"Damn, we need to take out those artillery before they get the chance to really attack." Cypher muttered.

"We only have one battlechip left," Enjolie observed. "What are we going to do?"

"The only thing we can do...I execute them before they can blast me apart. The shield still works, so we'll just take this slow and steady."

"But the only battlechip left is a RageClaw. It's a melee chip."

"It'll have to do."

Enjolie slotted in the battlechip, the energy pumping through Cypher and strengthening his free hand. Cypher holstered his pistol, the hidden sheath in his leg armor sliding closed. He didn't like getting up close and personal, preferred to snuff out his opponents from a distance, but the pistol was useless to him now. The armor plating around his left forearm snapped open in four places, rising up like the fins on a missile. A low hum sounded from within the armor plating and a silver aura rose up to surround the arm. The metal around Cypher's fingers began to flow like mercury, lengthening into points before hardening into long claws. It wasn't much of a weapon, but it would have to do.

Cypher held the shield in front of his, his right arm raised to protect his body with the oval of energy. He gazed at the remaining viruses, his remaining targets, with an experienced eye. If he could somehow grab the flying viruses with the RageClaw, he could use them as projectiles to bombard the tanks that waited in the rear. It was a risky plan as the birdlike viruses were quick and agile, but it wasn't impossible. Cypher waited for one of the Fishy to come near, waited even as Daisy's attack cast a blue light over the battlefield. One of the viruses came within range.

Now!

Cypher's arm snaked out from behind his shield, clawed fingers grasping toward the birdlike virus in an attempt to latch on. If he succeeded, he would use the viruses as a bomb, hurling it across the field with his practiced aim to strike at the tanks. He planned to attack the larger tank that Daisy had already injured, hoping to take it out with this final attack. Another virus came within range and once more Cypher snaked out his arm to try and snatch the creature out of the air. He would throw this one as well, now taking aim at one of the uninjured tanks that laid in wait.
"Cypher, I think I have a plan," Daisy called out. "If I throw you at the tanks, could you finish them off? I'll make sure to take care of the other things."

"Th-throw?" Enjolie asked. "What do you mean?"

"It doesn't matter," Cypher answered. "If you get me close enough, I can definitely take out at least one more of those tanks. Just make sure you can mop up the rest of this scum."

Daisy used her own RageClaw battlechip to lift Cypher into the air, blood from her palm splashing against the Navi's feet. Cypher was hurled through the air straight toward one of the Beetanks. Cypher held his shield in front of him, prepared to use it to absorb the shock of the blow and prevent the tanks from counterattacking him.

As Cypher neared his target, his swung his shield arm out, attempting to bash the tank and avoid its cannon. He fell into a roll, landing along the side of the virus with his clawed hand poised to strike. Cypher rose up, slamming his fist toward the Beetank and throwing all of his strength against the bug-like virus. He struggled to lift the tank, planning to slam it down on the last of its brethren. He focused the strength of the battlechip into his arms, enhancing his muscles to allow him to upend the large tank so that he could use it to bludgeon the virus next to it.

"Finish it!" Cypher shouted to Daisy.

2. RageClaw(20 + Impact) to FishyD and BeetankC
3. RageClaw(20 + Impact) to BeetankC and D

((And I'm pretty sure Medic is using a Turn Splice))
"Finish it!' Daisy heard Cypher shout, causing her to look at what was left to be taken out. She spotted that one of the Fishies hasn't be touched, so she figures she could at least take that out.

"Virgil, aquaneedle please." Daisy requested, her netop responding by slotting said chip in. She looked towards that darn falsenumner of a virus, and raised her hand at it. Without thinking, the blood on her palm formed three three inch nails. Then, one by one, they erupted from their place on the palm at the Fishy. Piercing trough the air at their target, hoping to go right trough it with great precision.

She looked once more at the field, and saw that one of the viruses Cypher handled definitely was still around. Since Cypher trusted her to do the cleaning, she shifted her arm at the tank. Right then, when the arm lined up with the target, three daggers burst out of her hand, flying at speeds nearing sound as they travel towards the last of the tanks. The recoil of the attack, due to Daisy not preparing herself for it, caused her to spin slightly.

((Super Lazy Post GOO!))

Cypher crashed against the Beetank, but thankfully, the shield was able to protect him from any harm. The navi began his mad rush with his RageClaw, picking and throwing every virus he could see. In the process, many viruses was deleted and few were left. Daisy picked up on the assault and shot the Aqua needles as well as a flurry of dagger to the viruses. The Fishy barely survived the Aquaneedles, but the same couldn't be said about the Beetank. The remaining viruses began to attack, but everything was simply shrugged off by the navi's impenetrable defenses.

Cypher had done his best to destroy the remaining tanks and fishys, trusting in Daisy to mop up the stragglers. However...There were survivors. His foes were resilient and obviously well trained. The Navi cursed and once more dashed into the fray.

"If you want something done right," he muttered to himself. "You damn well had better do it yourself."

The silver claws that tipped the fingers on Cypher's left hand glinted wickedly despite the haze of battle. The Navi set his sights on the last remaining birdlike virus, hoping to continue his method of using them as ammunition against their cohorts. He leaped through the air, arm outstretched and fingers grasping for the flittering virus. If he could manage to catch hold of it, he would spike it down onto the injured bee tank. He would aim his shot to send the fishy hurling through the air to smash into the side of the tank, hopefully disorienting the bird and demolishing the tank.

Cypher hit the ground and lunged to his right while pivoting back toward the tank. He moved in a zigzagging pattern, his legs pumping as he bobbed left and right to avoid whatever counterstrike the viruses had in store for him. Once more Cypher focused on the fishy, claws extending in anticipation of the kill. He raked his hand through the air, attempting to rip the very wings from the virus' back and send it tumbling to the floor. There was no mercy to be had. The wicked were to be punished and, if the damn police wouldn't do anything about it, he would administer his own judgment.

Summary:
1. RageClaw(20 + Impact) to FishyB and BeetankC
2. Dodge
3. RageClaw(40 + Slashing) to FishyB

((Medic said he was going to some kind of con or something, so just mod it if he doesn't post today. The viruses should be dead anyway.))
Cypher grabs the Fishy and dunks it into the Beetank, taking out the grounded virus. He then runs around like a loon before returning to the wounded Fishy and finishing off the battered virus. Daisy does nothing (loser).

Cypher panted slightly as he released the battlechip data and his arm returned to normal. The battle had been more intense than he had bargained for with his minuscule arsenal and lack of upgrades. He would need to retreat in order for Enjolie to purchase some better supplies. He gathered the left over data, hoping to put it to use, and turned to his comrade.

"This has been an enlightening experience, but I believe that it is time for us to go."

"What?" Enjolie asked.

"We should retreat for now and use our acquired zenny in order to purchase supplies for subsequent expeditions."

"Ah, well, I guess you're right." Enjolie paused before addressing Daisy and her NetOp. "Thanks for helping us out, you two. We would have been mincemeat without you."

"Yeah," Cypher muttered.

The Navi vanished from the net without another word.
After some time Daisy finally jacks out.
