Viral Tendencies

With the odd visitor having moved on and his spoils collected, GigaMan was quick to push on in search of new targets to crush. The walkway went n for a short while uninterrupted, weaving between various hot springs as it gradually curled away from the coast side, but before too much further, he came upon a spot where the path seemed to be washed out by a very broad pool of cool water, blocked off from the various other onsen springs by a collection of crudely stacks rocky barricades. The impromptu dams had created a flooded section that took up where the path ought to have been, and it had become home for a trio of Piranhas that circled endlessly.

The other pools nearby, still spring fed on their own, seemed to have a group of other viruses relaxing in them as well, though they were beginning to perk up and pay attention as GigaMan arrived at the obstructed pathway. They numbered a pair of Heavy viruses, in the nearby side pools, another shrimp a little further back to his left, and further off behind the flooded section, a cloudy virus drifting on its own. Also of not, a green glow from one of the other back pools, tell-tale sign of another data crystal.

Heavy viruses move slowly, and only dodge when they attack. When a Heavy attacks, it teleports to a position to the left or right of the intended target, and proceeds to try to ram the target with a quick sideways motion. The number of times it will consecutively attempt to ram the target before teleporting back to its starting position depends entirely on the number of actions the virus has. Teleporting before and after the attack do not require an action. Movement and attacking are one and the same to this virus, thus even a non-attack collision with it is damaging.

-=Battle 3, Start!=-


A golden barrier formed around GigaMan's body as he made moves to delete this new set of enemies. He read the layout of the battlefield, and felt it was best to stay mostly in the area he was in. Julius sent him the usual first chip to start their offense off. As much as he'd hate to admit it, there was a slight chemistry being formed between their tactics atleast.

With both arms outstretched facing outwards, palms facing forward the possessed Navi fired off two fang like projectiles. The first one glowed with a golden light as it streaked through the sky, falling towards one of the dumbbell viruses. The second fang veered in an altered direction, this one chasing down the Piranha that was in the back of the pool.

GigaMan jumped to the left just a bit. He knew to be on the look out for rain clouds, arrows, bubbles, and teleporting shake weights. Just knowing what was coming however wouldn't help him avoid them.

The assessment didn't take long, and GigaMan raised his defence then prepared to attack. His swiftness was mostly matched by the more aggressive targets in the area, however, as the trio of piranha all looking in his direction and began to target him with their sights — barrier or not, he was keenly marked by the three. Just as quickly, the Shrimpy virus edged forward to the side of its back pool and blasted a stream of bubbles towards him, though GigaMan moved aside while he launched his offence.

Both fangs found their marks in satisfactory fashion, though the remaining two piranhas seemed unfazed as they continued to ready projectiles even as one of their numbers was destroyed. As one heavy was pierced as well, the other gave off a low, irritated groan and promptly warped to side-swipe the intruding navi from the opposite direction. The shift was a little too unpredictable for GigaMan to avoid this time, though his barrier absorbed the damage, just barely. Further back, the Cloudy virus summoned a rain cloud that began to meander its way across the field towards him, though it was slow-moving and lazy in its travel. it didn't bother him this round, though it seemed to have a decent amount of stamina in it, pouring rain as it went.

A very sharp spear tip protruded from GigaMan's right palm. He scanned his enemies and could feel the threat level from one of the Pirahna viruses rising. So he lined up his shot and unleashed two powerful spears. The first one glowed with the familiar golden light of his buffed attacks, while the second one trailed plainly behind it. He hopped backwards hopingn to avoid incoming attacks from his many remaining opponents.

"Here use this, throw it at the Shrimpy, they seem to be a little more durable then most of our friends here." Julius called out as he slotted in one of their EnergyBomb chips.

"Fine." GigaMan didn't waste time, as soon as he finished his evasive action the chip had been slotted in. So upon activation he raised his arm and lobbed the explosive towards the crustacean. He hoped to drop the bomb right on the virus in hopes of finishing it off but, as long as he didn't miss by a long shot there would no doubt be some type of damage.

It wasn't exactly a friendly working relationship, but it was at least sounding slightly less hostile than when they first started working together. GigaMan used the chips he was sent to augment his abilities and swiftly punctured one piranha before either of them could fire at him. The other released its trident regardless of its ally being destroyed, but despite the narrow clustering of the darts, only one of the three struck GigaMan, and that one didn't manage to get through his barrier.

A moment later the Heavy warped a second time and swung past him, but GigMan was able to dart back, avoiding the massive weight as it flew past. His retaliation was aimed at another virus, attempting to blast the Shrimpy before it could attack him again. Two of the three cluster bombs struck it, but it wasn't quite enough to destroy the sturdy little shrimp and it shot back a bubble stream in his direction. This one connected, but all it managed to do was strip off the faltering remains of his barrier, and couldn't do him any harm beyond that.

Somewhere else, barely related to the fight, the cloudy drifted back and forth in contentment while its rain cloud continued to circle and pour rain on the spring, and the pool, and everything else except anything that mattered. The localised storm petered out after a few moments and the Cloudy looked at where it had faded with a small frown.

Working together and resenting it, GigaMan and his operator acted quickly in their efforts to clean up the remaining viruses before they could attack any further. The Shrimpy was just scuttling around to make another shot as Giga's blast launched out, engulfing the small virus and scorching the nearby heavy as well. The latter virus groaned and rolled over once, while the Shrimpy gave no more sound at all.

The last piranha tried to track with GigaMan, beginning to line up another shot. It got a bead on him easily enough, but only because GigaMan himself had stilled briefly, before crossing the distance between them in a rush that caught the virus off guard and crushed it soundly. As Giga's dash ended, he managed to duck away from another teleporting swing from the now-battered heavy. Two down, two left; the Cloudy was rumbling now, getting ready to brew a new rain storm.

When a Heavy attacks, it teleports to a position to the left or right of the intended target, and proceeds to try to ram the target with a quick sideways motion. The number of times it will consecutively attempt to ram the target before teleporting back to its starting position depends entirely on the number of actions the virus has. Teleporting before and after the attack do not require an action. Movement and attacking are one and the same to this virus, thus even a non-attack collision with it is damaging.

ShrimpyShrimpy (Shrimpy)

Shrimpy viruses are able to move between attacks as a free action, however dodging still costs them an action. They must pause movement to attack. Shrimpy viruses may move over fragile panel types without damaging them, such as moving over Cracked panels without breaking them. Shrimpy viruses cannot be forcibly submerged or smashed through fragile panels, even if thrown. They can submerge of their own free will, however.

"RageClaw now." GigaMan commanded.

"I was gonna send the..."

"I said RageClaw." The Navi repeated this time louder. Julius responded in tact by slotting in the requested chip. His claws glimmered in the light, and looked a little bit sharper then normal. The usual feint gold light that happened when he buffed an attack coated the blades like paint. He ignored any signs of defense and rushed the Heavy and tried to finish it off with a vicious slash.

Having deleted the Dumbell or not, the light vanished from the claws as He charged towards the cloudy. Once in range he attacked with two speedy slashing attacks. One from left to right with his left claw and the other he pulled his right claw back and attempted to run the Cloudy through bringing an hopeful end to the battle.

In the interests of finishing the battle quickly, before his remaining foes could try again, GigaMan moved swiftly to dispatch the Heavy virus firs,t raking it with an empowered strike and deleting it before it could try for another pass at him. The cloudy, meanwhile, began to rain again, sending another waving path of rain out towards him, but it passed wide of him the first time, and GigaMan wasn't about to let it try again.; his two swift follow-up slashes ended the battle and left the stormy cloud to evaporate again moments later.

Open GMD?

GigaMan brought a speedy end to the battle. He straightened his posture and and flung his claws outward getting rid of the RageClaw1 data, till the chip was slotted in again. He feel to a knee as if exhaustion over took him for a moment.

"What's going on GigaMan...?"

No response came as the Navi hurried his head into one of his palms. He stayed in this posture for minutes as Julius pleaded for a response, when finally he stood to his feet and shook off whatever had come over him. "I'm fine. Do not look so worried human. I told you, I am in control of this body and no harm will come to it. He walked to the GMD, activated an untrap and proxesssd the data.

((Yes))
((Use Untrap))
After a brief episode of dubious control, GigaMan resumed his quest for power, this time in the form of accessing juicy data crystals. This particular one unpacked itself and delivered a packet of chip data for him.
