As Titania advanced to the edge of the cliff, the water continued to rise around them, encroaching around the sides of the rock. The shadow, meanwhile, began to become more defined as a large, elliptical object. She let loose with a simple arrow, followed by an energy blast...
...which both bounced off the hull of the leviathan as it surfaced, revealing a gigantic black submarine. As it continued to approach, it fired a pair of torpedoes at the rock, causing it to shudder upon impact. Titania, and Oberon as he appeared as well to take up the defense, could here something that sounded like a small rockslide from below them for a few seconds afterward.
Meanwhile, the ocean gradually rose even more around them.

<...Nice!>
Oberon practically laughed out loud as he saw the huge thing surface, and the blue jewel around his neck twinkled with the thrill of the fight. The dust from the explosions swirled around Oberon's body as he launched his body off the rock and practically flew through the air, his form a blur as it screamed across the Net area at frightening speeds, over the water and through the skies, leaving Titania still standing vigil at her vantage point far behind. His eyes were locked on target the entire time-- locked onto a small detail on the ship that both Rachel and Guy would have no chance at all of spotting if it were not for the modified PET's oversized screen...
It was Guy who first saw the tiny detail on the submarine's hull.
[[color=darkred] What the hell! What are you doing? If you sink into the water-[/color] ]
[[color=darkblue] Look, Rachel![/color] ]
Guy's excited voice sounded less distant than before through her sister's microphone as he leaned closer to her, trying to get a better view of what was happening.
Oberon landed with a loud clang, in a fraction of the time that Rachel had been expecting. [[color=darkred] What chips? [/color]] She asked frantically, turning aside and relying momentarily on her Navi's voice to tell her what to do.
"I'm well armed with the Zapring. But be ready to send some heavy--"
Titania's voice suddenly cut off in mid-sentence as her position on the net was altered radically, from standing on the clifftop to in the same space as Oberon. The Navi wound up both of its right feet just briefly before slamming the hatch of the Submarine as if kicking a football, both of their considerable strength concentrated into one shot.

Oberon and Titania quickly teleport to the top of the submarine and blast open the hatch with a Microburst, right before two torpedoes blast into the cliff surface, again, but not doing much.
The two drop down and land softly. Behind Oberon is the humming of the engine probably coming from the engine room. Currently he is in a narrow passage between the engine room and another room in front whose door he can barely make out. There is poor lighting, but there was probably a switch somewhere.
The dual navi could hear mutterings from behind the door in front of him... Hmmm... also, doesn't it feel like the water level rose?
It doesn't look like the armor on the inside of the submarine isn't nearly as fortified as the IronBody-like covering on the outside.
So... shall we proceed?

"Pulsar. Quickly."
Titania hissed one final order to the human pair in the outside world as she spotted a target to unleash hell upon. She took her time drawing her bow, concentrating her aim solidly in a straight line down the hall, keeping her body rock-steady as she waited for human flesh to catch up with her order. The sound from her audio link to the outside world was one of wordless haste, something that Oberon found amusing and Titania found pleasing.
Titania held the bow at its fully drawn position for just a few moments, even after the Pulsar chip was properly loaded. In those few moments, Oberon's body melted away, sublimating into a cloud of pure energy, an entire Navi's worth of power floating in the form of a haze that shimmered like heat even as it seeped into Titania's arms and became concentrated into a solid white glow, centered on Titania's oversized bow and arrow.
She loosed her arrow with a sound like a distant thunderclap. The air between her and the target door shivered, as if in anticipation of the earthshattering blow that was about to land. The arrow morphed into a living pulse in mid-flight, a moving disturbance in the Net, and on impact, it exploded into a shuddering sphere of power, amplified by the power of the link between two Navis born to fight as one.
[Pulsar 250 damage on door, hopefully hitting everything behind it and the sub itself (on several squares!) for 125 damage]

Titania fired the pulsar chip at the door, and sure enough, the moment it hit it exploded into a rippling shockwave, blowing the door wide open and causing the entire sub to shudder. Titania was knocked to the floor in the process, as was a purple-armored navi that appeared on the other side of the door.
"Jesus FUCK," she heard him say. "What the hell WAS that?"
The HeelNavi scrambled to his feet, pressing a button on the control panel he had been standing at that sent a shockwave rippling through the ship, then staggered to the doorway to see his attacker.
"You!" he exclaimed, recognizing Titania and pointing his buster arm at her, "you're that bitch on that rock I was using as target practice! How did you get in here?"

Titania may have been thrown off her feet, but the ghost-image of Oberon was apparently not. He rematerialized in the doorframe, right where it had been blown off its hinges, and smirked as he pointed his right fist-blade in the astounded HeelNavi's face.
"Who taught you to operate this contraption?" He said, totally unconcerned by the weapon pointed back at him. A lightning arrow suddenly phased silently through his back, through his arm, and out of his outstretched hand, making it appear as if he'd fired a bolt of electricity from his blade at point-blank range, straight at the HeelNavi's head. With that, he reached out to grab the HeelNavi by the shoulders and try to spin him around, only to vanish and reappear directly in front of him again, unarmed, waving his empty hands in a taunting gesture.
[[color=darkred] Titania, your energy readings are worrying me... having Oberon stay separate like that is--[/color] ]
"I know my limits," said Titania, privately, so that only the human world, and not her enemy, could hear, as she quickly and stealthily made her way down the hallway. "Energybomb."
Meanwhile, Oberon continued to swing feints at the HeelNavi, then vanish, ensuring hopefully that the dull-witted Navi would stay concentrated on him and not the truly dangerous (at the moment) one of the pair, who was sneaking down the hallway, her head ducked low. "I sure-- wouldn't trust you at these controls, when you didn't even notice us when we--!"
He continued this game for several precious seconds, covering Titania's approach as she scurried down the hall, ducked low because there was no lateral space with which to dodge, practically on all fours, making no sound with her feet that was not covered by Oberon's taunts and grunts. "You missed TWO Navis flying through the air and landing on the back of this machine!" He was yelling now. "Maybe we should've just watched, to see how long you would spend shooting at rocks thinking they looked like Navis!"
Suddenly, he vanished completely, just as an explosion engulfed the cabin, a second arrow fired from close range, meant to blindside the distracted HeelNavi. "Play time's over," she said quietly. "Now, you die."

((Sorry, must've missed it with all the stuff that changed in the summary.))
The Heelnavi was relatively unaffected by Oberon's jab at his ability to control the sub. As soon as they began their attack, he slung two bubbles forward, which began to slowly weave around each other through the tight space of the cabin.
Before they could reach the passage leading to the hatch and engine room, the Heelnavi pointed his buster arm at them and fired off five small bursts. The first two hit the bubbles, releasing anchors encased within, while the remaining three continued past and destroyed Titania and Oberon's newly re-erected shields. The first anchor slammed into the dual navi, while the second flew past, causing the sub to rock violently again as it collided with something in the engine room.
Red light flashed through the sub, and a warning message blared in a strange viral language. Apparently the heelnavi understood, however. As he exclaimed an "aw shit" at his mistake, the dual navi fired a burst of electricity at him.
He retaliated by releasing a small mechanical orb, which fired a scrambler shot at Oberon and Titania. It hit, causing the image of both to flicker for second before stabilizing. In the brief moment of disruption, he managed to catch sight of the energybomb shot and duck it, where it hit the inside of the sub and exploded in a flash behind him.
Meanwhile, on some level, Oberon's taunts had proven effective, and the HeelNavi felt his systems locking up.

Rachel cursed loudly as, despite Oberon's diversion, Titania was pummeled by attacks. Rachel, however, quickly regained her composure and focus, as Guy's emotions flowed in the opposite direction, from hopeful disbelief to mumbling, discontented worry. Through the voice-link, Titania vaguely heard Rachel's voice saying, "Learn to pull yourself together if you think I'm ever going to let you-"
It's close quarters. I love it. Set him up and I'll take him down! Quickly, before we find out what the flashing red lights mean! Titania's pendant-jewel flickered urgently with Oberon's words. It was more data than speech; each inflection and speech mannerism communicated within the span of a few milliseconds.
At that moment, Rachel turned her head back to the PET screen and spoke into her microphone, urgency having apparently cured her of her pride.
[ [color=darkred]What do you need me to do?[/color] ]
"Rageclaw, Sword," came the immediate response.
Titania's bow dematerialized as she was snapped instantaneously to Oberon's position in the Net and she opened what would be the final engagement of the battle, win or lose, with a simple uppercut to the chin. Her hand-- much like the rest of her body-- was a blur, as she flowed into existence right in the HeelNavi's face, her arm already moving in a surprise punch.
"Well? Where's that Sword chip? You got the stupid chip right, how about the strong one?" Hissed Oberon's voice in Rachel's ears, the Navi still apparently able to berate his Operators even when Titania had taken his place. Rachel didn't respond verbally, choosing instead to turn her eyes temporarily away from the action on the PET screen, using both hands to frantically pick through her uncle Jean's relatively large and disorganized folder of BattleChips.
Titania faded out with the follow-through of her punch, and was replaced by Oberon, both hands burning red from his forearms to the tips of his weapons, casting a light like the birth of a newly lit flame, a flame that grew to illuminate Oberon's entire body with a color like sunset as he plunged both weapons forward in a spear lunge, through the space where the enemy HeelNavi stood, and into the wall behind with enough power to bury them to the hilt in the datasteel, impaling and pinning anything in between the weapons and their final destination.
Oberon took a half-step back and pulled his hands free of the weapon-- and that was when the downloaded Sword data manifested, as a swirling cloud of blue surrounding both of his hands.
[ [color=darkred]Sword slot-in![/color] ]
"Rachel, how many times do I have to tell you? You can dispense with the childish formalities."
Oberon's words echoed through Rachel's ears, though the Navi's visible mouth spoke no words as he started the end of the fight. He started with a jab to where the HeelNavi's solar plexus would be, followed with a hooked undercut to where the HeelNavi's floating rib would be, and then dispensed with any form of subtlety.
With a single deft motion, he stepped in, so close that his chest nearly brushed the HeelNavi's, reached for the Navi's throat with his left hand, and pounded into his opponent's face with his right. His face morphed from disconcerting grin into an openmouthed yell as he smashed at the HeelNavi with all his considerable might, aiming only for the head, going only for the kill, knowing that, either way, this would end it.

Its systems locked up, the HeelNavi could do nothing to avoid being pinned to the wall and pounded by repeated attacks. By the end of the last strike, he barely had a head left, but rather a ring of mutilated flesh where it had been, with blood data splattered across the wall Oberon had pinned the navi against.
Unfortunately, the strange stun bolt shot the HeelNavi had hit him with before locking up had caused his last attack to spark wildly, sending a current back through the sub and back to the engine room. The engine subsequently exploded, effectively rendering the back part of the sub nonexistent and causing the forward half to fill with water.
Fortunately, Oberon was able to escape the wreckage as it flooded, rising to the surface as the dead HeelNavi and his precious toy sank to the bottom.

Unfortunately, the strange stun bolt shot the HeelNavi had hit him with before locking up had caused his last attack to spark wildly, sending a current back through the sub and back to the engine room. The engine subsequently exploded, effectively rendering the back part of the sub nonexistent and causing the forward half to fill with water.
Fortunately, Oberon was able to escape the wreckage as it flooded, rising to the surface as the dead HeelNavi and his precious toy sank to the bottom.
