Contracting his body like a spring, Chrosa vaulted over and above the Metools, just as they sent their mattocks to the ground, evading their shockwaves entirely. Landing behind the Metools, he dispatches them with a Shotgun easily. The two disintegrate into floating data packets, which float up into the air, before disappearing entirely, having been automatically sent to Zed's PET. With the coast now clear, Chrosa could now progress forward.

"Oh dear, that was even more potent than the Cannon." Chrosa was a bit disappointed at the outcome, hardly realizing the spoils he had retrieved. "Cheer up, Chrosa. There's bound to be tougher enemies ahead that can take your shenanigans," Zed comforts his partner.

"I suppose so." He picks up the tray and the device morphs into a pointer once again. He wonders how far the location is. His thought process is interrupted as he hears Zed's voice again.

"Oh good timing, my order's here. What is it." He gets a closer look to understand what's in front of him but to no avail.

"This is your appetizer, albeit a Netfrican version called a meze. Your order appears to be hummus and cacik (yogurt) that is supposed to be the dippings for the flatbread, and also some sujuk is served, a type of spicy sausage." Chrosa's face is once again cheerful as he has a chance to educate his Operator.

"Cool, I'm digging in." Zed tries out the appetizer but he has a hard time using a fork and knife. Savagery wins over as he uses his hands instead to enjoy the meal. Chrosa however doesn't scold him as that is the customary way.

"Mmm, this is real good stuff here. The dippings really meld together with the flatbread. And the sausages have that distinct middle eastern spices in it," Zed comments on his experience. "Surprises don't always lead to a bad outcome," the Navi postulates.

The boy pauses from the delicacy, "Next one is probably the main course, so it'll probably take awhile. How about step it up a notch and do two battles in one serving?" the operator boldly challenges.

Hearing what Zed had to say, the butler made a nod of agreement. He'll make sure the next two battles will be a swift one. He picks up the pace now that the device is functioning more properly.

((Awaiting #2 Battle))

Chrosa's journey was briefly interrupted by his operator's order arriving before he set off again in the direction of the beacon. The side road quickly led to a small floating platform, set slightly above a set of three relatively thin rails. On the rails, ultra-highspeed floating transporter platforms zipped by, carrying huge grey metal containers, and manned only occasionally by one or two Mr. Progs that Chrosa could catch sight of. Though the rails were fairly busy, everything was relatively quiet, as the platforms themselves only made a slight amount of noise due to the wind they generated from passing by.

On the platform itself, a green Mr. Prog with a conductor's hat nodded its head sleepily, standing by a yellow line that marked the safe distance for someone to stand on. It seemed like it was there to supervise any incoming payloads, but from what Chrosa could see, nothing was stopping for the moment. At that point in time, if he were to look at his beacon, the arrow would point down the rails. It didn't really look like he could just jump down onto the rails, though, if he didn't want to get run over by a moving platform.

Chrosa stood by the rocking Mr.Prog. It's only afternoon, why so tired oh fellow worker? he thought. He then looked longingly down the tracks and scratches his chin. "We must squeeze our mental capabilities to find a solution, allegorically." Zed rested his back to the seat but immediately springing back "Oh I've got an idea. How abo-"

Zed's suggestion was ignored before he even stated it as Chrosa was already on the move. He was looked around and double checking before haphazardly dropping down onto the tracks. The octopus lays his eyes on the sides and pauses for a while before he inches closer to the edge. Then he lifts his tentacles and elongates beyond the tracks. One, two, three; they were all latching to the bottom side of the tracks. Zed nodded at his Navi's clever actions. The octopus' body tilted more and more until the last of his tendrils were suctioned to the underside.

"Perks of being an octopus, no?" Chrosa boastfully says to his Operator. But his master was focused on something else, something which filled him with dread. "CHROSA THE BEACON!"
In the spur of the moment, the Navi realized the beacon's imminent fate of falling into an abyss due to gravity. He had just enough time to elasticize his hands and grapple the dim beacon. They both released a sigh of relief.

"Well this could be cumbersome, to hold this object with me. As much as I am a hearty fighter, I'm not yet experienced in battling the laws of physics, ho." Chrosa looks at the beacon upside-down, beyond it, the unknown.

"Maybe now's the time for my great idea. Ok, hear this. How about, you stick that thing..into your head."

Chrosa considered if Zed was joshing around or if he was making a stupid suggestion. Though knowing of his master, he was making a silly solution. "Well it's a ludicrous thought, but it works logically. So here comes a mouthful," He impales his own head with the beacon, where it snugged in quite comfortably. The Navi seem unhurt but feels a slight tingling sensation coming from the beacon. It was just pointing him at the right direction whilst sloshing his head's innards.

Zed laughs exorbitantly for a split moment before realizing where he was located right now. He hunkers down to escape the embarrassment. Chrosa frowns at his direction before slinking carefully along the bottomside of the tracks. Maybe with this strategy, surely viruses couldn't tail him, being non-sticky and all.

Walking right past the drowsy Mr. Prog attendant, Chrosa vaulted down onto the tracks, and began to swing along them like a monkey. Surprisingly, this worked out rather well, as the floating container-carts simply skated above his tentacles. It looked like he was on the right path, at least, as the beacon program he had managed to save from falling into the abyss was precariously embedded inside of his head. The next few minutes were relatively uneventful, with the beacon periodically pinged the way forward, though it didn't take long for him to encounter a sharp drop in light levels, as the rails continued into complete darkness.

Chrosa did not go unilluminated for very long, however, as he saw a few recessed guide lights posted on what looked to be walls next to him every few metres, as well as the beacon stuck into his head. It seemed like at some point, he had wandered into a dark valley of sorts, as there was no surface underneath or above him; it was black depths all the way. The smooth walls to his sides were a bit too far for his tentacles to reach, though it wasn't like he could find anything to grab onto. The transporter platforms that occasionally zipped by also provided some bright illumination every now and then, but for the most part, he was moving along almost blindly, as the beacon continued to point him forward.

Before long, however, he heard the wind whoosh past him, coming from all sides about him. A nearby guide light showed that he had the pleasure of being accompanied by a flock of spiky green bird viruses, which pincered him from all four directions in front of him. They poised themselves to attack the hapless Navi, but not before a sudden piercing howl cut through everyone's hearing. The howl seemed to have a weird effect on the beacon, as it started pinging madly in the direction ahead. The Fishy viruses perked up at the loud howl, momentarily distracted from their target.

The source of the noise quickly revealed itself as a pair of glowing red eyes upon a hunched shadowy figure. The unknown entity darted about the walls a fair distance ahead, somehow able to scale them even with their apparent smoothness. The Fishy shifted their attention towards this new arrival, and the figure's attention was similarly directed towards them. The loud howl sounded again, much louder this time, and the beacon inside Chrosa's head started rapidly pinging again in return. The shadowy figure then started bounding across the walls, rapidly moving in Chrosa and the Fishys' direction!

Chrosa dared the darkness of the ends of the pathway. Whether this was even ACDC anymore, wasn't his biggest concerns. "Hmm, looks like that main course is gonna come sooner if this keeps up." Zed speaks up as he pushes aside leftovers of the appetizer. He didn't want to disappoint the main course. The Navi subconsciously increases his speed traversing the tracks.

The turbulent wind jostled Chrosa's movement a little, so the Navi recorrected his positioning by suctioning upside-down with his tentacles. The wind's behaviour was odd in that none had blown directly in behind him. He glanced around with what little light he received and sure enough, it was Fishies, and not the edible kind.

"The wildlife here sure don't take kindly to handicapped Navis," Chrosa murmured. If they attacked all at once, he'd have a guaranteed freefall. But a miracle had come to save him, in the form of blood-curdling howl. The Fishies had turned their visage towards an eerie enigma with deathly eyes, giving Chrosa an opening. The Navi considered to bail out, but he realised that the beacon was shining madly at the strange figure. Seeing both the ranked Fishies and the distracting signal made the figure bound straight at all of them.

"Uuuh, It's probably safe to say that that beacon isn't that needed anymore. I mean it's reeeally not needed right now." "I readily agree," both their voices wavers. He pulls the pinging beacon out of his head. He figured encasing it in his buster shot would be a good idea. The Navi peeks over to the upper platform where the tracks were and fires to where he first came in, letting it disappear into the dim darkness. He felt the tap when the beacon landed to the ground. Chrosa just remembered that his buster shot made of 'cells' allowed distance touch. Now, he can conveniently sense any vibrations of incoming railcars that the shot picks up.

"Now Zed, what do you wish for me to do?" Chrosa tested what his Operator's flight-or-flight gears would think do.
"Well I-I'm not sure, just prepare defensive measures. We don't know what the situation will play out. That 't-thing' might not be entirely hostile," Zed batted back his question.

Chrosa nods and he acts quickly. First he knits his signature Cozy Code, upside-down. He quickly dons the protective gear and reassess his surroundings. He couldn't see much, but he knew that the Fishies were quite locked in the tense engagement and that the rapid entity wasn't letting down.

So what he had done was that he let go almost all his tentacles whilst simultaneously pushing against the ground, letting only a few hang left. The next step lead him to pull his body upwards. Lastly he pushed a bit of air behind his tentacles, letting go of his remaining appendages and let his body fly slightly in the air and landing on the tracks. He'd done this so that he would avoid any ranged attacks.

--Summary--
[Ch1] Go Away Mr.Light! // Buster Shot (shoots behind where Chrosa came from)
[Ch2] Defensive Measures #1 // Sig : Cozy Code (Self)(20 HP Casing)((1 TCD))
[Ch3] Somersault Contender! // Dodge

With the identity of the unknown entity all but confirmed, Chrosa proceeds to jettison the beacon he had obtained earlier into the darkness with a buster shot, leaving him in very low light conditions. After that, he provides himself with a bit of defensive measures by knitting himself his protective sweater, before maneuvering up to the top side of the tracks with a bit of fancy tentaclework. However, he only barely managed to land safely with the thinness of the tracks, precariously hanging over the side slightly.

Meanwhile, the Fishy locked all of their sights onto their new enemy, and all dashed towards it in a brilliant airborne display. Each Fishy crossed over to the opposite side as it attempted to clip the virus with its wings. The virus darted into view, though Chrosa could not make out its shape other than a dark brown blob, with flashing red eyes. The Fishies' combined attacks dashed straight towards it, but sadly, only one managed to graze it with its sharp green wing. From the attack, it received a retaliatory claw attack, delivering a deep gash into the bird virus's backside.

The battle was fierce, but Chrosa had more to come; a low vibration from behind him signaled that a transporter platform was on its way soon, and fast!

"Ah, I hadn't expected it to come so soon," Chrosa commented. It seems that the Navi's actions will have to be quicker than before to escape his impending doom. But what Chrosa saw was a burst of opportunity, as he can finally utilize the coach's devastating velocity to wipe his foes. Zed could already see the glean in the Navi's eyes. "Make sure the coaches are automated. Wouldn't want a poor Prog caught in the brawl," he advised. He was still waiting for his lunch and nasty accident is the last thing his appetite needs.

Chrosa glances at the tumult fight. From the figure's retaliation towards the closing virus, he realizes that this feral beast cannot be simply persuaded to cease fire. He switches to a more aggressive strategy.
"Zed, you wouldn't mind it if I take it to the next step, no?"
"Sounds like you've got a plan. By all means."
Chrosa request for a street sweeper and the ZapRing, to which Zed inserts the chips. Chrosa steadily explode a face full of lead to both the beast and the weakened virus. His main goal was not to weaken them, but rather to provoke them and to face their ignored threat, namely himself. The fatal shot to the chipped Fishy will surely anger its fellows, if it connects that is.

Chrosa didn't think much of a failed outcome, as he prepared for the the crucial planning to phase out. He stalls momentarily for that moment between his opponents to close in all at once, if they do at least, and to hide from the barreling vehicle. He edges to the tips of the platform and falls backwards at the last second. As his vision of the upper playing field escaped from his view, he released a corrupted ZapRing towards the limber entity. He quickly makes way for his lengthy tentacles to swiftly clutch onto the underside of the platform once again, barely holding his heavy weight. He proceeds to clings to the platform with all his limbs and might as the clash with the cargo will surely rock the whole battlefield. Chrosa can only hope that the cargo will hit all of them, creating a cascading glitch effect due to his ability.

Summary
[Ch1] Look In My General Direction! // Shotgun (50, Spread1) > FishyA & ????
[Ch2] Single-Track Speeding!! // Feint
[Ch3*] Down Beast! // ZapRing + Ability:Hack (Glitch) > ????

The Fishy and the virus seemed to be wholly ignoring Chrosa's presence as they continued to do battle, with the virus evading all of their fast dashes and the virus slicing them up in turn. However, not content to let the viruses do all his dirty work, Chrosa pulled up a Shotgun chip, and shot down one of the Fishy, deleting it where it stood. The Fishy viruses immediately turned over to his position, as well as the unknown virus. Chrosa had something else to further his goals, however, as he fired a ZapRing towards the target virus. Caught by surprise from a new target, the virus took the attack head-on, and fell towards the tracks limply. Chrosa had also modified the attack, and introduced a glitch into the virus, which inexplicably caused its black appearance to be blown away by a blindingly bright light.

At this moment, Chrosa could see the virus being an odd-looking teddy bear, its black fur and enormous claws glowing unnaturally from the glitch. Meanwhile, the transporter platform Chrosa had felt coming chose this time to enter the stage, just as the bear hit the tracks, and rammed directly into it! However, the transporter didn't seem to have slowed down too much from the impact, and seemed rather fine as it carried away Chrosa's target into the darkness, carrying its light with it.

... He would probably want it back.

Chrosa felt the strong shake as the two huge bodies collided on eachother. However, movement didn't stop immediately then and there as he felt the train's momentum still going strong. He peeked over to the side to see the blindly bright beast, revealing itself as a plush teddy-bear, albeit huge and ferocious. The huge virus was still stuck to the coach and it wasn't going to stop for Chrosa.

"Hoh, what a hardy freight!" Chrosa exclaimed. He wasted no time as he got up from below the platforms and began to chase the runaway beast. He hopped repeatedly utilzing his hydrostatic tentacle muscles. Despite his escalating speed, he was still barely out of reach of the freight train and was trying to get hold of the backside of it. "Nothing can beat you in mobility, huh," Zed praised his Navi sincerely.

Chrosa smiled at his Operator despite breaking sweat, but his face shifted as he the wind rush behind him; the Fishies were hot on his trail. They weren't going to give in so easily before avenging their fellow comrade. Chrosa signaled at Zed what he was planning and his actions translated to a powerful Cannon materializing in his hand. Chrosa, who was still attempting to board the runaway vehicle, looked back for a split moment to launch his left arm towards the fleeting enemies. He was now locked on the enemies location and was bouncing facing back. One of the Fishies was out of bounds of his Chaining Chiasma so he delivered a powerful blow with the Cannon.

As the battle rages on, the Navi was at loss as he was blinded at the actions of the teddy. Though he wasn't too worried as the bear was in a similar situation as he was, being stunned and bulldozed ahead.

Summary:
[Ch1] Wait, I've a Ticket! // Movement (chase for the coach)
[Ch2] Mix and Match! // Sig [Chaining Chiasma] (Glitch * 2 Targets) > FishyB & FishyC
[Ch3] Too Close for Comfort! // Cannon (60,KB) > FishyD

Finding that he was about to lose his mark, Chrosa immediately whipped himself over on top of the tracks and began to chase after the runaway beast. He managed to get close to the rear, when the teddy bear virus recovered from its brief paralysis, and immediately mounted the speeding transporter platform. It then started to throw its fuzzy claws around menacingly at the chasing octopus, but he managed to keep a safe distance as he tried to catch up.

Meanwhile, the Fishy weren't about to be left behind either, as they zoomed past Chrosa, barely missing him by mere inches. Unfortunately, their high speed meant that he couldn't quite nail them with his sticky arms. However, the Cannon that he materialized a moment later did find its mark, visibly damaging one of them. They didn't seem to give up the chase, however, as they trailed Chrosa just slightly to his sides, as he continued to run on the tracks. The cart was very close, and he could grab onto it if he was inclined to, but with the bear swinging its huge paws at him, that might incur a slight consequence.

Chrosa had continued to jump backwards towards the freight train, barely parrying from the enemy attacks. As his foes make a move to his sides, he returns to hop facing forward to board the inching train. Unfortunately his actions were impeded as a pair of bear's claws were inviting him to become an expensive yet sloppy sashimi.

"Urk, this battle is turning out to become a one-way trip to a back alley sushi stop, ho. I'd say it's time for another brain session Zed."
"I'm thinking!" Zed blurted out. He selects his two remaining chips that will be Chrosa's ticket out of this mess. One was a Shockwave, which was useless for the type of enemy and arena his Navi was situated in. The other being a RageClaw, a powerful weapon that will send its user into ravaging spree which usually makes them ignorant of their own wellbeing. Zed had no choice and quickly readies Chrosa with the chip. "Here, have this one for size!" Zed beamed with courage.


"Good one Zed, my boy." Chrosa praises and readies his weapon. As the claws are equipped unto Chrosa's hands, his humorous personality dissapears and his instinctual feelings surface. He stops chasing after the cargo and freezing abruptly, leaving himself helpless against the surrounding Fishies. As he felt the coursing wind come towards him, he surprises his nearest foe with a quick slash, a fatal one if it were to hit. He continues to haphazardly strike another foe and before they get away, takes hold of his previous target and throws it towards the slowest incoming enemy. He hadn't done it on purpose, but the Navi had imbued a glitching effect into his throw, and seeing that it he will throw towards another enemy, will infect them with the same strand of glitch effect.

Chrosa was struck with invigorating savagery as he dealt the consecutive blows. Meanwhile, the train was left to chug along the tracks as Chrosa was locked in the heat of the battle, bringing along the feral teddy.

Summary:
[Ch1] Have You Heard... // RageClaw (Slashing) ((5 Uses)) > FishyD
[Ch2] ...About Our Lord and Saviour... // RageClaw (Slashing) ((4 Uses)) > FishyC

With Zed's brain session ending up in a rather simple solution, Chrosa carried out his operator's wishes as he hacked and clawed away at the Fishy for the moment, letting the bear virus speed off. It gave Chrosa a warm farewell, however, with a rake of its huge claws, tearing apart his protective sweater. Fortunately for Chrosa, he managed to fight off the Fishy, that were more than eager to attempt ramming him off the tracks. As he smacked away one of the Fishy, it was imbued with a data randomization effect, causing it to spawn... another Fishy? Or perhaps not. Chrosa saw the second Fishy phase in and out of view, so it could be some kind of after-image.

The corrupted dust of it's fallen ally leaves a strange after-image beside the Fishy's body. Although it being a shoddy decoy, Chrosa still wavered to deal the final blow. So, the Navi examined his enemy closely to seek out the façade. After seeing through the Fishy's trickery, he relentlessly slashed one more time to finish the job.

"OK, you can stop the acting. It's almost concerningly real," Zed voiced out, creeped by his Navi ferver.

Chrosa awoke from his instinctive killings and shook his head briefly. "Ah, but only the best acting will do, no?" Chrosa bluffed. He was almost in trance of the RageClaw. It was good timing that his Operator commented. "I think it's best if we move on." Chrosa agrees to Zed's advice. The octopus Navi sees the fading flicker and hops towards it along the traintracks once again to catch his bounty. Hopefully with a full set of chips.

[Ch1] This Rage Is A Bit Distracting! // Take Aim

Seeing through the Fishy's decoy afterimage was mostly trivial, as Chrosa clawed it down, and all the viruses disintegrated into reward data. The one he had most recently deleted transformed itself into battlechip data, which transferred itself to Zed's PET as Chrosa continued the chase. The bear virus saw his approach, and appeared to crouch on the platform, growling slightly while eyeing him with its blood red eyes. Suddenly, its growling was interrupted, as the platform took a sharp turn upwards. It appeared that the tracks were now at an extreme 80 degree incline, and Chrosa would have to climb quickly to catch up!

Chrosa was in for a difficult time as the tilted tracks made the playing field a bit complicated, especially when it will be on such a small cargo train. But as usual, the navi had a plan. His replenished arsenal allowed him to do some certain feats that he was about to do.

"Zed, how about we try out our new tools?" the octopus navi raised a brow curiously. "Well, do you know how to use the DashAttack?" The Navi shrugs, disappointingly. "You need to learn from other outlets besides your 'experience' runs like I dunno, books?" Zed was annoyed by his Navi's ambitious yet naive dogma. "Perhaps, but the description says it all and what I need to do now is a test run. Literally, ho."

The butler picked up the DashAttack and received a short explanation from Zed to make the best out of it as Zed payed attention to his chips classes. Thus, with his master's guidance, Chrosa equipped the mini-virus and recoiled his torso before zooming straight at the beast. He predicted that since the train is inclined, it will be hard for the ravenous teddy to stand upright. That however won't be a problem for the octopus Navi, reaching the train and latching immediately onto it. He made an effort to strike the bear yet simultaneously prevented from overextending to grapple train's roof.

Although Chrosa was at an advantage, he still felt the overwhelming presence of his colossal foe. The giant teddy took most of the space of the cargo. He first instinctively circled away to the front from the bear's claws to avoid any potential slashes. At that moment, both Operator and Navi's minds were synced as they thought of the same action.

"Chrosa, use this Cannon to knockback that bear off the coach!" Chrosa nodded strongly and pointed the materializing cannon towards the bear's... derrière. He pulled the trigger and the flash made the Navi recoil from the bright light. Not that he was willing to look anyway.

With the newly acquired Fishy virus equipped onto himself, Chrosa made quick work of the distance that had been between him and the runaway virus, managing to strike at its rear. Its claws were quick to respond to him, slashing away at his tentacles that were hanging onto the rapidly moving platform. (-40) Fortunately, he managed to avoid some of them, and brought out a cannon towards the bear's rear end. With such a small space, it wasn't exactly difficult to nail the virus off the platform, sending it plummeting off down the shaft. It managed to cling onto the wall with its claws, however, preventing its untimely demise. In addition, another problem presented itself, as without the heavy bear, the platform started immediately speeding up to leave the bear virus behind, but with Chrosa still on it!

Zed gasped at the dismembered tentacles but Chrosa just shrugged them off like it was nothing. "Don't worry about me, I'm fine. I'm in no pain thanks to that wonderful +50HP." His Operator was relieved "You gotta admit, that was pretty grizzly." Zed bantered. They both chuckled amicably at the joke.

But Chrosa had no time to continue with chit-chats. The transporter floated upwards away from his target. Without much planning he jumped off of the vehicle and was free-falling down. Fortunately, he didn't fall far from the tracks and the inclined pathway meet with the Navi's body, where he then slided against the surface.

"This is troublesome. I can't see the enemy's position," Chrosa complained. Zed though knew the right action and loaded a ZapRing and a Shotgun for the Navi. Seeing his options, the butler knew what he was getting himself into. He faced towards the walls and estimated the foe's position from the fall earlier and shot out the whizzing ring. Then, he carefully waited for the ring's reaction to its surroundings and shot a loaded slug. "Nice one Chrosa, knew you'd get it."

Summary:
[Ch1] Electric Slide! // Movement (slide down the tracks)
[Ch2] Shock &... //Zapring > Ravenous Teddy
[Ch3] ...Awe! // Shotgun > Ravenous Teddy

Laughing off the tentacles, Chrosa found himself speeding away from his mark. Not wanting to leave it behind, he performed his best skateboarder impression and leapt off the platform, sliding down it rapidly before releasing a quick double-shot of a ZapRing band and a Shotgun shell towards the bear. It leapt towards him in the middle of its attack, only to realize its mistake mid-leap, taking the brunt of the attack head-on. The force of the attacks was enough to delete it, as it let out a howl before dissipating into thin air as junk data. Now with his mission complete, he only had to decide whether he wanted to land a sick trick off of the rails, or simply fall into the deep, with the angle change in the rails approaching rapidly.

"Woohoo, we did it," Zed relaxing his tense body after the heated battle. He slouches back at the seat but was once again interrupted by someone. His main dish had finally been served, along with a appealing dessert. The waiter apologizes for the long wait Zed was too focused in Netbattling to care about his tummy.

Meanwhile, Chrosa slipped off the angled tracks at high velocities and was going to feel the brunt of the force. The Navi declares in the pitch darkness. "And here is my attempt to impress the youngsters. Rapid Ollie Retreat!" He turns into a blue blur before jacking out.
