The Fish heading towards the Shrimpy was suddenly shot in the back by SplashLady's Wideshot and shortly followed the Shrimpy's explosive bubbles in the front. The Blarghfish stopped on its track and yelled out its last cry:
"BLARGHHH"
and slowly disintegrated into fragments of data.
Shrimpy, badly damaged from the battle, slowly swam away from the battlefield with a sorrowful expression over its face. "M-my apologizes...I caused you too much trouble...I'll pray for your victory." After that, he quickly gained speed and swam away, leaving SplashLady and the Shark all alone.

"...Okay! You can leave the shark to me!" She wanted to say to Shrimpy that it hadn't been been a problem at all, but she just didn't have time to before it left. At least now she knew it'd be okay. Now, it was just her and the shark. Her mortal enemy...well, not so much 'mortal' as 'persistant and annoying'. "Okay, Sabrina, it's now or never! What's the plan?"
...Dang it. She still couldn't think of anything. Which set up for Plan B...coming up with stuff off the top of her head. "Okay, the plan is to...overpower the shark before it can make any kind of a comeback! Start off with your Water Splash!"
This posed a question. How did an attack that consisted solely of shooting regular water work underwater? ...On second thought, maybe she shouldn't overthink it. After all, WideShot and the like worked fine underwater. SplashLady pointed her spear towards the BlarghShark, and prepared to fire her trademark water blast attack.
But apparently, the attack had other plans. Instead of regular water, a series of blue energy pulses began to form from the weapon's tip, moving towards the target as though it was pure water on land. Was this was Water Splash looked like underwater? No...that wasn't it. Now that she thought about it, she was pretty sure she used it as SplashMan underwater before, and that it worked like usual. And yet, this time it looked more like some kind of ultrasonic sound attack. Maybe that was another perk of having a more modern structure..."Did you see that? Wonder what happened with Water Splash..."
"Yeah. And I can safely say that I have no clue why it did that. But as long as it works, right?" Okay, time for some chip action. She couldn't sit around doing nothing, after all. "Let's see if this still looks normal. Battlechip, WideShot! Triple slot in!"
The duty of blasting the shark virus was on the other hand now, both figuratively and literally, as the signature water gun replaced SplashLady's left hand. With it no longer being needed, she pointed her spear downwards, and the new weapon forward, as opposed to the reverse that it had been. Luckily, general aiming at the shark didn't take too long, thanks to its size, and she already had a general bead from Water Splash, so it took very little time to begin blasting wide waves of H2O its way. Three of them, to be precise. And as she half-expected, each was indeed water, as opposed to the energy pulse of earlier. Each one made their way towards the last enemy, but the Navi didn't pay attention as to whether it actually hit; by now she had reclaimed her second hand, and was swimming around the room, to help with the dodging she was most likely about to do.

The blue energy slammed against the shark and rumbled the entire cave for a brief moment. When everything settled down, the first thing SplashLady saw was the wide open eye of the shark, looking dead on at the navi. The blood clogged, the wounds were shut, and the shark wanted to get back. It jetted towards the navi tackled head on against the navi, throwing her to the far end of the cave in a blink of an eye. However, as she was thrown away, she fired her Wideshot and two crashed against the shark.

By now, SplashLady was visibly tired from the long battle. Sure, she was fine on HP, but she still had to take the brunt of some brutal attacks in this span..."Aahh...the faster we end this, the better..."
She was right: in addition to being exhausted, they were starting to run low on chips that she knew wouldn't be affected by being underwater..."Just hang on a little longer, okay? We'll take a break after we finish this mission!" Now, the 64000z question...how WERE they going to finish this mission? ...Wait, there was a way to wrap this up quickly, without having to feel the wrath of the BlarghShark again. Possibly. "Okay, swim towards the shark! You'll see why in a sec!"
Though she already had a feeling she knew what the why was, the Navi got a push from a nearby wall, and started to swim towards the enemy once again. Fortunately, being tired didn't seem to do much to her ability to move underwater. "Okay, let's get this over with!"
Not just yet, get a little closer...there! Sabrina inserted a chip featuring a blue fist. "Let's try and wrap this up! Battlechip, ColdPunch! Slot in!"
SplashLady's spear's head became larger, and became a large, icy fist as she drew near the BlarghShark. And then...it was time. BAM! She let loose with a flurry of freezing punches, venting the frustrations of the battle with her third hand. WHAM! And not just her frustrations, either. SMACK! She was fighting for all of the good viruses that had suffered because of it. WHACK! They were all depending on her...she couldn't disappoint them. SPLAM! The attacks were becoming a blur of blue, as though her strength was actually increasing as she was hopefully delivering the final blows. THWACK! ...Or not. She definitely did enough to end it if she connected enough times, but...she had no energy to dodge with. "I don't...I don't think I can move..."
"What do you mean you can't move?"
"I'm just too tired..." The ColdPunch fist disappeared, causing the weapon to return to its less hand shaped appearance, though it probably wasn't any sharper for it. "I need a minute to catch my breath..." Question was, could she spend that minute in peace, or was there still something around to interrupt the Pax Yoka?

((Blargh, lazy post...it's 3 AM right here and I really wanna go to sleep D: It'll be for the best if you don't read any of this and just be happy about the reward...))
SplashLady swam right towards the shark, but the distance was still a bit too far away and the Shark was able to have a short second of advantage! Rather than its usual "bite-em down", it learned its lesson and attempted attack in a different fashion. The shark quickly turned 180 degree and gashed a deep cut into the navi with its guillotine like tail.
The strong willed navi ignored the pain and started to wail her fist at the shark. Constantly throwing punches, the shark had little to no chances of escaping and the situation was getting worse every hit. Just before the last punch, the shark fired his tooths at SplashLady, but it wasn't enough to finish her off. The icy punch crashed against the Shark's snout and sent it to the far end of the cave. The shock created from the crash shacked the cave once more and things started to crumble down! The navi escaped the moment before the entrance was caved in, but just before it happened, a familar noise echoed in...

Whew...that was...quite a battle. But once again, she found herself triumphant over the giant shark. "I did it..."
"Yep, you sure did!" Sabrina promptly rewarded her Navi by...changing to the default GMO? "There! Feel any better?"
"Not really, but at least now I don't have to worry about panting..." Not up for more swimming, SplashMan let himself sink to the floor, and walked over towards the large pile of data where the BlarghShark had uttered its last "BLARGH!" "Okay, let's see what it left us...aha! A lot of cash, and some chip data! But I don't recognize the data signature at all..."
"At all? So the chip's from something we've never even fought before? Wonder what it is..." Data for AquaWhirl appeared on the PET screen, which the operator quickly got to reading. "...Not exactly something I'd expect from a shark, but it sounds neat! I think I'll put it in our folder right now!"
"Cool! I don't think I could've handled it if we got a bad chip from all of that..." The Navi slumped over against what had formerly been the cave for a moment, before suddenly leaping back up. "Ack! We should let the viruses know we beat the shark!"
"Ahh, shoot! I was so happy that it was finally over that I totally forgot..."
Sure, they'd figure it out on their own, but he just couldn't let them hide in fear any longer than absolutely necessary. And with that though, SplashMan jumped into mid-water, and started swimming back to the village, to share the good news.
(To the village!)

When SplashMan arrived back to the village, every virus that was hiding looked out their windows or cracks to see who was arriving. "It's the Child! He came back victorious!!"
All at once, the viruses started to pour out and joyously cheered on for SplashMan. Though he was all beaten up, the viruses was just too happy about the situation and Barely gave the navi a chance to take a break. "Thank the Gods! You returned safely!" The Shrimpy that helped SplashMan came upon the navi with a smiling expression on his face. "Come, the Father want's to speak to you."
The outside was still a loud riot of celebration while SplashMan and the Father Lark was inside a calm, silent cave. The Father's condition was as bad as he was before, but even the Lark couldn't help but smile. "Child...We are in debt to you once more. Please accept this gift we prepared for you...It isn't much, but this is the best we could do." A Shellgeek virus appeared beside the Father and inside revealed a pile of old rusted, yet still valuable, zennies and a beautiful pearl that shined even within the darkness. "This pearl is of no value to us, Please take it and keep it close to you."

Heh...it wasn't much, but he was still touched at the gesture. Plus, that pearl was quite beautiful. "Will do!" SplashMan waved his right hand, causing the zenny to disappear towards the PET. He then picked up the pearl, deciding to send it personally. "Thank you! I guess I should get going...I'm exhausted, and I still need to report to..." Ahh, that raised a good question. "Um, actually, there's something I need to ask before I go. I was sent by the Global Network Administration, who picked up your distress signal. Do you want me to tell them about this place? I mean, if they took it wrong, they might try to delete you all, and we can't have that...then again, they're supposed to be neutral, and you guys don't cause any trouble...what do you think?"

The Father looked up to SplashMan and had a moment of silence to think about the situation. "As you can see, our village is very vulnerable against any threats. We are strong as viruses, but non of us are too willing to fight back. If the time of need comes again, we cannot depend on you all the time...However, this village is considered a taboo in your world and cannot be brought into the open light. After another seconds of thinking, The Father continued. "Child, It would be for the best if you did not tell them our location. If we require help from the times to come, we would try to reach your world like we did before.

SplashMan quickly nodded at the large virus's recommendation. "Okay, I won't tell them! Hopefully my operator can come up with something, since I'm no good at coming up with stuff like that..." He took one more good look around, before facing the Lark one last time. "Well, I'm off to recover and report on this. Take care!" The Navi turned into a beam of light, and exited the Net, having finally fulfilled his purpose for being there.
