Re: .//вяєαтн σƒ ℓιƒє//. (ℓуѕιѕ)
ooc: Bah, CORE databases are unhackable, and Nanoswarm can't see Jennifer's face through her helmet... =x
ic:
After much wasted ammunition, one of her shots finally hit the Nanoswarm; for some reason it must have failed to register it, or perhaps it was wearing out. Even though the single shot couldn't have been all that damaging, the nanoswarm rolled up into a ball and dashed off into the forest somewhere. Before chasing after it, Jennifer removed a plastic baggie from her pocket, and crouched down where the swarm had been hit. She picked up the small clump of fried nanites, and put it into the plastic bag. The cluster was probably burnt beyond repair and unlikely to hold any information on it, but she stored it in the baggie nonetheless. It was better than nothing, after all.
Finally, Jennifer got up off the ground and set off in the direction that the swarm had rolled. It hadn't been too discrete in its flight, crushing the underbrush in an easily traceable track. She followed its path, but didn't have to go to far before she found the Nanoculture again.
In fact, it was the Nanoculture who had found her, and with clear intent. Its ocular aperture glowed with a fierce crimson red, and it began firing both its chaingun and the plasma rifle at the same time. The plasma shots splashed and hissed when they hit Jennifer's armor, burning out quickly on the fireproof surface, and the chaingun projectiles beat against her, no doubt causing some bruising. Frost quickly dived out of the way and assessed the situation as she ran, the swarm close behind her. The plasma shots from her armgun were not real effective, but perhaps...
She reached over to her armgun with her right hand, hitting a couple of switches. The weapon hissed as it compressed the plasma and sealed off the canister, then buzzed and hummed as it charged the electrocaster. Let's see how it takes a little electric shock... Jennifer thought as she hid behind a tree. The weapon beeped when it was finished charging, which was just in time as the Nanoculture came around the other side of the tree. She aimed and pulled the trigger, a bolt of electricity casting itself from both barrels of the weapon and hitting the nanoswarm.
