Difficult Water

Though it was impossible for him to physically do so, SplashMan let out a large sigh of relief at the lack of electricity coursing through his body. Some local tingling in his feet, maybe, but nothing resulting in severe loss of HP. "That was nerve wracking...but I guess we're not about to quit, huh?"

"Um...no. No we're not. I know those Winger are scary, but since they're frozen...well, I think you can get close without worrying about it!" Hmm, what to use...Sabrina wished they could go all out, but if they did, that Mystery Data was, uh, going to be non-existant. Better use something that couldn't backfire like that. "Battlechip, AquaSword! Slot in!"

The Navi held up his right arm, and watched as the hand dissipated to make room for a watery blade that he'd seen...well, he lost count a long time ago. Bringing it down for a more controlled attack, he let off a single, mostly horizontal slash attack with it, that could slice through even solid ice. And with any luck, he just proved it by doing so.

"Nice! You can get rid of it now, by the way. We only needed it for that!" Now for those Spooky. An indirect attack would be best, but again, they had to account for that mystery data, and its, er mysteriousness. "Listen up! Before you use this next chip, take a sec to make sure you only hit those Spooky, okay?"

The water tank Navi placed his sword on some of the previously created ice, pressing hard against it to break the blade in two, and allowing his right hand to return to him. "Gotcha!"

"Then without further ado...Battlechip, LilCloud! Slot in!"

For a moment, nothing happened; SplashMan heeded his operator's words, trying to find out where to send the attack without it blasting the green cube into a million data bits. Once he decided on that, a small cloud formed above his head. It moved forward, seemingly doing nothing, but once it approached the ghostly viruses, it gushed rain...and not via the big goopy droplets that made it sorta fun to run through every once in a while. These were tiny, bullet-like droplets that stung like heck if you so much as stuck a hand in it. Having felt the attack earlier, the Navi sympathized with the targets a little...but considering they were trying to delete him, just a little.

Sabrina thought for a sec, before pulling out one more chip. "SplashMan! Think you can get a little closer to the Mystery Data?"

"Sure!" The Aqua Navi moved over towards the green piece of data of indeterminate origins, settling on a spot that still had a little distance from it, but close enough that he should be able to attack anything that got near it. "I think I know the answer to this...but what am I doing here?"

"For this! Battlechip, ColdPunch! Slot in!"

SplashMan clenched his hand into a fist, as it became encased in an icy, glove-like object that for whatever reason made it look twice as big as it really was. More importantly, however, it gave him a good deterant for anything that might attack either him or the data. After all, what kind of virus wouldn't be at least a little intimidated by a giant fist?

[Order of Turn:
1-AquaSword chip attack on WingerA and WingerB (80+15, Aqua, Slashing)
2-Take Aim on remaining Spooky2
3-LilCloud chip attack on Spooky2A and Spooky2C (70+15, Aqua, lasts for 2 turns) (Aqua Boost)
4-Get a bit closer to the Mystery Data, but not so close that a Winger attack could hit both it and SplashMan
5-ColdPunch chip attack on any Spooky2 that try to attack SplashMan or the mystery data (70+25, Aqua) (Single Target Aqua Boost)
6-ColdPunch chip attack on any Spooky2 that try to attack SplashMan or the mystery data (70+25, Aqua) (Single Target Aqua Boost)]

The frozen Winger are sliced up to their deaths as the Spooky teleport in for some action! SplashMan's ready with his cloud of death, raining hell upon one Spooky. The other gets a good dose of ICY FIST. The remaining paper doll bounds down from its trip above, and does not like what it sees.

Only one virus left. And no shocking. SplashMan was pretty happy about that, but he couldn't let the gas up now, especially since the no-shock streak could still be ended. "Phew, almost done...let's finish off the Winger now while we've got the chance!"

An incredibly obvious statement, but it wasn't one Sabrina could argue with. "Yep!" Luckily, she had already done some chip searching, bringing one close to her PET's insertion slot. "Let's see if we can end this with one attack! Battlechip, Arrow2! Slot in!"

The Navi held a hand forward, as a spark appeared above its palm. It began to take a form, manifesting itself as what appeared to be an Elewasp virus. Luckily for him, it was only malicious towards other viruses, as it began to see red as soon as it noticed the lone paper down, causing it to extend its stinger, and rush the enemy with pure, unadulterated electrical rage.

That could be enough, but just in case...SplashMan began to invoke the leftover Aqua energy within him from his previous LilCloud and ColdPunch attacks, causing a sudden surge within his cannons, and filling them instantly. Lowering them into firing level, he gazed upon the area the Winger may or may not be inhabiting at the moment, ready to shoot at a moment's notice if Arrow hadn't quite done the job. And in case THAT didn't work...well, he had a buster, and he wasn't afraid to use it.

Rewards:
- 2250z
- [ElecShock] Battlechip
- GMD: [PhoenixShot2] Battlechip

And so, SplashMan had
emerged victorious, but
had took one last hit.

Fortunately, he wasn't able to be frozen as the last Winger fell to the might of his, er, mighty assault. And that mystery data wasn't deleted or anything. He accessed all the leftover data, and watched as it was transferred. "You might wanna get a blank chip ready, Sabrina! That was too big to just be cash!"

One, nothing. Two different chips appeared on the PET screen...neither of which particually appealed to the one holding it. "ElecShock, and PhoenixShot2 from the mystery data. I'm sure lots of people would be beside themselves with that, but meh...whatever. By the way, I don't think we're ready for a Battle 5 by ourselves, so you can jack out anytime."

"Okay!" And this did the Aqua Navi vanish, and leaving the dangers of the Net...
