(...I was THIS close to attacking the fallen Larks, but nooo...I had to assume that them being down meant they were down for good. The saying about assuming strikes again!)
Good idea: checking on the friendly Lark. Bad idea: leaving the battlefield to check on said Lark. Despite his new-found injuries, SplashMan managed to make his way back towards the not-so-dead RogueLarkEX, though he wasn't quite able to get in front of the Father to defend him. "I won't reach him in time...I gotta take them out now!"
Luckily, there was one chip well-designed for taking out several weakened viruses at once. And so, Sabrina inserted this chip into her PET. "Well, here you go! Battlechip, Spreader! Slot in!"
An odd gun with a similar color scheme to Shotgun formed on the Navi's arm, and wasted no time in aiming it towards the remaining opposition. A single shot was fired, which soon spread into several, and peppered the area around the RogueLarkEX...some of which hopefully blasted them into oblivion. But what if it didn't? He didn't want to waste any time with chips...so instead of waiting, the Spreader faded, and was replaced with a generic looking gun, which surprisingly had never been seen.
"Splash Buster!" Three ordinary buster shots were quickly fired, each aimed towards where an enemy virus had been spotted immediately before the previous blast. SplashMan looked over the field of battle one more time; sure, he had two chances to hit each virus, but if even one was still around, a certain other Lark was toast...
[Order of Turn:
1-Spreader1 chip attack on RogueLarkEXA, RogueLarkEXB, and RogueLarkEXC (30)
2-Uncharged buster shot on RogueLarkEXA (2)
3-Uncharged buster shot on RogueLarkEXB (2)
4-Uncharged buster shot on RogueLarkEXC (2)]
Oh, blubbity blub blub...

The hailstorm of the Spreader shots and the generic buster shots ensure the deletion of the RogueLarks, ending both the battle routines, and the safety of the virus village.
The Father groans as he gets off his side to lie on his belly facing Splashman. "I am ... forever in your debt ... Splashman," he gasps between breaths. A few viruses rush from their hiding places to try and help the Father, but he patiently waves them away with a fin. After explaining that the rogues were gone and weren't coming back to the few that had come to him, he turned his attention back to Splashman. "I will ensure that you are remembered here. If by chance you stumble across our village in the future, you will be greeted with open arms," he rumbled.
Beyond the mass of viruses come to thank, hug, touch, or anything else that would make him feel like a celebrity, Splashman could just see a glint of data where the Larks used to be.
"Father": 5
Splashman: 30

...And now it was finally REALLY over. All RogueLarkEX had been deleted, and neither he nor that Father Lark had been. All SplashMan could do is let out his equivalent of a sigh of relief. "Phew...I'm glad that's over..." He had little time to relax, due to lots of viruses wanting to get a look at the Navi that saved them all. "Er...you're welcome! But all I did was what was right! I shouldn't have to be thanked for that!"
"Oh come on, don't give them that! You saved them all from those giant Larks! Good job, SplashMan!" Sabrina gave her Navi a V sign through her PET.
"Ha ha...I guess! I appreciate your thanks, everyone! It makes that tough battle worth it!" ...Which reminded him, there should probably be victory data somewhere. ...Aha, there it was. "Sabrina, I'm sending reward data over! See what's in it!"
"Okay, and you can enjoy the celebration a little longer!" The young woman had her PET scan the data, which turned out to be a fair amount of cash...and chip data for WideShot. Awesome. "Ooh, WideShot! Now that's what we came to Yoka for!" A blank chip was inserted, and came out featuring a picture of a Lark. "Goodbye, Cannon!" Her final Cannon chip joined the rest in the wasteland of the reserve chip pocket, and was replaced with her latest (and arguably greatest) WideShot. "It's all analyzed, SplashMan! So I think it's time for us to say goodbye!"
"All right..." The Aqua Navi looked over the group one more time, then at the Father Lark. "Well, I guess it's time for me to head out...hope you all do well! Goodbye!"
Using that as a cue, Sabrina pressed a button on the side of her PET, causing her Navi to dematerialize, and leave the Yoka Net, in order to return to her handheld device.
