With the other Champy sufficiently shredded, the Teddy let off a victorious snarl, which, this time, was heard by all in the area. Displeased that was nothing of its kind to claw, it vanished. "As you can see, if one must fight viruses, statuses can be highly useful. They can ensure that you needn't fight them at full power, giving you the upper hand. That spell put the Champy to sleep, making it unable to do anything. However, a Teddy's boisterous nature could certainly awaken it, so I temporarily muted it to prevent that from happening. After all, while powerful, statuses often have some method of ending prematurely...but alas, this is not a show about NetBattling, so I will say no more. So, shall we move on?"
"And, cut!" The camera Navi took a few steps forward, looking around. "I think we could use a quick break! Just a minute or two, but yeah." The others looked around, nodding in agreement.
"Ah, I imagine the first battle's memories are still lingering in your hearts. I can't say I blame you, as I wasn't entirely expecting it myself...very well. A short break, then we will resume."
"Seems your summoning ability's as crackerjack as ever!" Now that there was no need to remain quiet on the set, Horatio elected that now was a good time to chew some fat with his Navi. "A shame we haven't obtained any viruses for the zoo yet..."
"It is to be expected. After all, I've only located two groups thus far, and truth be told, I anticipate little outside assistance in the matter."
"Indeed...also, is there any way you can try...avoiding attacks, or anything? You're taking little damage now, but odds are it'll add up rather quickly..."
"You know my movement ability is...limited, at best. I certainly cannot skillfully evade whatever is thrown at me, like most Navis. I suppose I could always summon a Mettaur to help defend, though. Of course, even that won't work on all attacks..."
"Of course. I suppose I'm just asking not to take any foolish risks. No ratings are worth your deletion!"
"...Indeed. However, based on the options available to me, the best defense is a good offense, as the saying goes. After all, only one virus managed to withstand my assault and return the favor, did it not?"
"Quite true, quite true!...I suppose in a way, this is me returning the favor of you always warning me on shoots, eh?"
"I suppose it is." The mystical Navi looked around, making sure that none of the crew Navis were doing anything indisposing. "Are we set to proceed?"
"Sure!" "I guess..." "Good to go!" "Action time!"
"Then without further ado, let us go!" Fortunately, since ShamanMan moved so slowly, the other Navis were able to gear up and follow him with little rush. And knowing that, he was able to keep an eye or two out for viruses, knowing that his full search speed would in no way hinder the others.

ShamanMan moved on in search for more viruses, and viruses he found... Along with few dings and cracks. The field was slightly beaten up and broken by the rampaging Powies and Beetanks, attacking and vandalizing the network without a care in the world. However, they put a stop to their fun when they realized they had something funner to play with, ShamanMan and his TV crew to be specific!

Ah, another group of viruses. Unfortunately, none of them seemed to be willing to lend him an ear, or anything other than high levels of pain. At least they were types he'd yet to cover. "Is everything all set?"
"Whenever you're ready!"
"Seems I've run into a couple of new viruses. The gray viruses are called Powie. They somewhat resemble weights, as you can see, which they utilize to attack attack. They leap into the air, enlarge themselves, and drop onto their target. It's not the strongest of attacks, but their attacks can cause the ground to crumble. As for the insect-resembling viruses, those are Beetank. They attack by launching bombs from their horn-cannons. Depending on the level of the virus, their explosives can have various effects. Ironically, regular Beetank bombs can create cracks in the ground, just like Powie. Suffice it to say that when the two combine forces, only an exceedingly light Navi, or one gifted with flight, can safely ignore the ground below them. Perhaps for this very reason, the two will commonly associate with each other to compound their ability for Net destruction."
"To combat either is not a difficult task, but when combined, it is advisable to watch your step. Ideally, you shall always be on the move, but not recklessly so, as that will surely result in a long fall. Unfortuately, I have difficulty moving quickly, so I will be unable to demonstrate my words..." ShamanMan raised his arms, the ends of which began to slightly glow blue. "Viumbe wa maji, zama mafisadi!" The attack proved to be slightly less blue, as a trio of Slimer viruses descended from the heavens, each all set to squash a targeted lesser virus. Naturally, three 'splats' could be heard in rapid succession as they landed, regardless of whether or not they actually managed their seemingly simple task. The sound doubled as a notice of their departure, as they each vanished almost instantly after landing. viumbe wa maji, "...You will probably notice me using that attack frequently. I apologize in advance for the lack of variety, but it is best to not fool around with viruses, regardless of the threat they may or may not impose, and that is far and away my most effective attack."
Now, ideally, there was only a single enemy left. And while he COULD theoretically destroy it now, it would serve the program better if he didn't, and instead explained something else. With this in mind, he pointed his arms at the previously untargeted Powie, causing twin balls of blue fire to appear in front of them. "Kuanguka katika usingizi, ili kufariki yako itakuwa bila maumivu!" The pair of orbs both sped forward, and despite their appearance, brought not the agony of flame, but an odd, deep relaxation...
Keeping his voice down, the mystical Navi recited a third incantation that was too low to be heard, causing a Mettaur to appear in front of him. It did not attack, but instead stood there, seemingly waiting for something. "Oddly, there are some BattleChips that stray from their source virus, such as Guard. Whereas a regular Mettaur can only defend with their helmets, Guard not only does that, but deflects the damage back to the original attacker. To this day, no one knows exactly why this occurs..."

The Beetanks shot forward towards the Navi as he summoned a few MetaGels above them. Wet smacking sounds added to the roar of engines as they fell around the viruses. Unfortunately, only one managed to fall on a virus, crushing one of the paper dolls beneath a mound of slimy goo. Converting one of the Powies to street pizza.
The next Powie was hit by the next two incantations uttered by ShamanMan, binding its data in arcane matrices and putting it to sleep. But the Beetanks came on, unhindered. Their cannons cranked down to draw a bead on ShamanMan, and fired.
Their bombs fell upon the Navi, still rooted to his casting spot, and exploded behind him. First one, then the other detonated on the Navi, burning some of his clothing and skin. The ground also buckled beneath the Navi, quickly becoming too weak to support his weight.
ShamanMan and the Metool plunged into the pit that crumbled beneath him.

Despite being singed and sent down into the abyss, ShamanMan oddly seemed no worse for wear, aside from the number indicating his health. He looked up at the opening above him, noting that the cameraman was still getting footage of him. "As you can see, I am incapable of flight, nor was I quite light enough to stand atop the cracked panel. Thus, I fell into this pit. Worry not, however, for the panel above me will not reform until I somehow exit."
With that, he looked down, noting the Mettaur spirit had fallen down with him. "Are you well, little spirit?" Though clearly a bit dazed, the virus ghost jumped up and down, to let its summoner know that it was still good to go. "Excellent. Unfortunately, my means to return to the surface are extremely limited, to say the least...you, however, may yet have hope." The Navi raised his hands, causing an odd sparkle next to his helmeted ally as he began to chant. "Inaweza makucha ya haki rarueni hatari mbele yangu!"
A small bear virus suddenly appeared, which immediately growled as it began to look around to unfamiliar surroundings. Upon seeing ShamanMan, however, it calmed down a bit, and focused its gaze on its conjurer. "As you can see, the situation is...less than ideal. Since I myself cannot climb out of here without assistance, I'm depending on you to head up there and destroy as many enemies as you can. One is asleep, so you need not target it just yet." With a nod and a snarl, the Teddy prepared to climb...only for the Mettaur next to it to start talking to it in an incomprehensible language. Whatever it was, it caused the bear to extend a front paw, which the other virus happily jumped on top of. It then proceeded to be flipped atop the Navi's...head, for lack of a better term. He didn't so much as flinch by the development, instead remaining perfectly still, as he was prone to do. "...So, you wish to protect me? I humbly thank you...admittedly, I am a sitting duck against those bombs down here." The helmeted virus proceeded to duck for cover under its most notable feature, leaving the odd impression that ShamanMan was wearing a helmet.
By now, the Teddy spirit was well on its way to the top, its claws being well suited for climbing. Upon reaching the top, it looked around, noting that there were several set Navis, a pair of Beetank, and a sleeping Powie at various points. The decision on what to attack was obvious...since it wasn't a regular virus. With a low growl, the bear raced towards one of the bug viruses with surprising speed, attempting to rend it with a pair of claw swipes in rapid succession. The first slash, however, left an odd purple trail, as ShamanMan had, unknowingly to the recipient, enchanted that claw with a spell that could reduce the power of the virus it chose to victimize first...

The Powie was sleeping, so it didn't act as the Teddy climbed out of the hole and proceeded to charge and slash at one of the Beetanks. The purple energy weakened the Beetank as both retaliated. Only the non-weakened Beetank managed to drop a bomb into the area of broken terrain, to fall right on top of the Navi. The Metool fulfilled its mission in life with an explosion of ethereal light as it sacrificed itself to protect ShamanMan. The blast rebounded back out of the hole and melted the forward stabilizer of the Beetank, causing it to pitch forward slightly. It would take a little time to reorient its remaining stabilizers.
However, all this noise woke up the Powie. It began to flap its paper wings and rise into the air.

Based on the sound of the ruckus above, ShamanMan was reasonably sure that the summoned Teddy spirit failed to do any deleting. At this point, there was little else he could do, since his lack of a viewpoint made sure that he couldn't comment on what the viruses were doing. He could summon another virus spirit, but that would take time and energy that could be equally well spent by the one already in the current plane of existence. All he could do was stand around and wait...mostly. He did appear to be uttering something extremely softly...
Standing around and waiting, incidentally, was the complete opposite of what the Teddy intended to do. With great fury befitting something that dropped a chip called RageClaw, the bear spirit exchanged targets, and began to slash at the other Beetank, as the Powie was a bit too high for it to realistically attack. Its first attack had the same effect as the other time, possessing the magical ability to weaken the target in a way other than HP loss. Not that it noticed, considering its primary objective was to destroy the beetle-like enemy as quickly as it could muster. Once it felt satisfied in that regard, it would then seek out the other of its kind, and use its claws to rend it into oblivion, which it couldn't do earlier...

Teddy charges in without a moment's hesitation, weakening the first Beetank with his first slash, before completely annihilating it with a second swipe. The Powie began its attack in the meanwhile, crashing down on ShamanMan and dealing... just damage. It probably still hurt though.
Teddy didn't seem to really notice and killed the next Beetank in the meanwhile.

Luckily for ShamanMan, the lower floor was unaffected by the crashing weight. It sort of made him wonder why they didn't just make the regular floor out of it...too expensive to be feasible, perhaps? Ah well, it wasn't important now. Based on the Teddy spirit's snarls of triumph up on top, it probably managed better success with that last round. And while he still couldn't do much at the moment, he could now, however, prepare for when he could. He leaned back as far as he could, which wasn't that much, but enough that with some effort he could straight up, and raised his arms. A mysterious blue fire formed around his hands, as he charged them with magical energy. If that Powie tried to attack him again, he had a nasty surprise for it...
Meanwhile, the virus spirit appeared to be slumping slightly, feeling a bit sluggish as it ran low on energy. But it still had enough to go out with a bang, and rushed the last virus claws ready to tear it up once and for all. After a particularly vicious slash, however, it faded from the plane of existence, having completely exhausted its reserves in the name of destruction...

...So, it was over. ShamanMan could sense the final virus ceasing to exist, and the subsequent departure of the Teddy spirit. He was relieved that he wouldn't be harmed again, but at the same time...it was a shame that he had only encountered viruses bent on blind destruction, and those Mettaur that refused to be transported. He knew his quest wouldn't be easy, but it was still a little disheartening to find nothing on the first try. Ah well, perhaps he'd have success another time. "And so, another battle ends...an endless cycle, we Navis must engage in. But as long as malicious viruses exist, we must and shall fight. ...On the plus side, that battle showcased the abilities of Powie and Beetank rather well. It is my sincere hope that someone learned something! I know I did..." The witch doctor Navi looked around, then up. "...My spiritual ability is great, but my physical skills are lacking, to say the least. Can anyone help me out?"
The cameraman Navi looked down, still filming the scene. "Uh, we kinda didn't bring any of the extra gear...we didn't think we'd need it!"
"You fool! One can never be overprepared!...But it cannot be helped now. I wished to proceed, but since I cannot escape this pit, we shall have to call it an early end. Well, everyone out there, it seems we must part for now. Please, take to heart what I have imparted. And with that...back to you, Horatio!"
"And that's a wrap! Heh, I bet editing's gonna have fun with this one! Can't wait to see the finished product!" One by one, streaks of light represented the various crew Navis exiting the Net, their job finished.
"Mmm...I'm curious as to how they edit it, myself. But that is of little consequence at the moment..."
"Good to see you're still chipper after taking that many blows! For a moment I was a bit worried!"
"I can understand why. A shame that I cannot move faster. Fortunately, I need not speed for this!" ShamanMan waved his right arm, causing the money data dropped by the viruses to head for his operator's PET. A second wave opened the green crystal, which decoded into a BattleChip to be sent. "...I sense a very faint virus signal in that BattleChip data. Can it even be used to summon viruses...?"
"Unlikely, I'm afraid. The picture is just that of a flaming short sword. It's called FireKnife."
"FireKnife...a BattleChip tied to the Swordy with fiery hearts. It may not have a picture of a virus, but it may be possible to create a Swordy-F with it. I shall need to investigate when I return. Are you ready to accept me once more?"
"Ready, willing, and able!"
"Then I shall depart at once!" And so he did, vanishing from the Net without a trace.
