MegaTale (Pacifist) Part 6- Spirit Fight

Eventually, Rock and Rhythm spots a robot sitting on a pile of leaves. She seemed a bit... Transparent. "That's Spirit Woman." Rhythm starts to say. "Believe it or not, but she's a ghost, WAY different from the normal robots we seen around here. We have to get past her somehow." Rock walks up to the robot. "...Hm..." Spirit Woman thinks to herself. "I think C2 here needs a bit more work..." "...They seem to be focused on something..." Rhythm states. "Sadly, this isn't like any type of ghost you would know: they can go through walls and such, but a robot or a living being? Not a chance. ...Maybe we can ask them to move instead?"

Rock taps on Spirit Woman's shoulder. Suddenly, Spirit Woman turned around and was actually shocked! "O-oh! Uh... Hi?" Spirit Woman states. "Th-this is kinda sudden... Wait, that appearance... Some guy in Dark Blue said you'd come, and told me to fight you. Sorry!" Suddenly, Spirit Woman pulls out a buster- kinda like Retro's- and fires what appears to be Buster Shots made of... pen ink? Rock was hit a few times, but for the most part, he was unharmed. "You want to know how to get past her?" Rhythm says. "All you have to do is try and be polite to her. Try a simple greeting." Rock said a simple hello. "...Uh... Hi?" Spirit Woman replied. "...I'm, uh, not really feeling up to making another turn at the moment. Sorry." "I think it's working!" Rhythm exclaims. "And she's not even fighting back, either! Try for a compliment!" Rock tells Spirit Woman that she was looking nice. "Oh... Thanks?" Spirit Woman replies, a bit confused. This was a person he never met before, someone a strange Dark Blue robot told her to fight! ...However, she was actually thankful for the compliment!

Sadly, however, the fight had to continue, Spirit Woman firing more ink in a different pattern. Because of the different pattern, Rock was unable to dodge all of them, being hit a few times once more. "I think one more hit and your down! Try eating that piece of Robot Candy from earlier." Rock nods and eats the candy. Suddenly, more ink! This time, however, Rock recognized the pattern as the same pattern Spirit Woman used first, and so Rock was hit fewer times! "You're doing great!" Rhythm cheers. "Now, let's see if we can lighten her day with a little joke." Rock nods and tells Spirit Woman a clever joke (not a pun). Spirit Woman chuckled at this a bit. However, the fight continues, and it's the same pattern as the one that almost took Rock down! Fortunately, Rock once again recognized the pattern and was able to get hit fewer times!

"Hey, mind if I show you something?" Spirit Woman asks. "Hold on, let me just..." Spirit Woman seems to begin drawing something... After a while, Spirit Woman stops and turns the picture around. "What do you think of this drawing?" Spirit Woman asks, showing what appears to be some sort of robot that looks like it came from an online RPG of sorts based on some sort of video game. (That sounded very specific.) "Alright, now all you need to do is-" Rhythm started to say before being interrupted. "It looks great." Rock said. "Really? Thanks!" Spirit Woman responded.

"You know, I normally come around here to draw by myself." Spirit Woman begins to explain. "I am... usually kinda shy. But you seem like a nice person to hang around with. Maybe we can meet up some other time?" It was silent for a moment, then Spirit Woman continued. "...I think I should be heading home now. See you around." Spirit Woman said, seeming to leave while disappearing. "...How did you know you were supposed to compliment her drawing skills?" Rhythm asks Rock. Rock turns to answer. "Well," Rock states, "I was actually just being honest." Rock then continues down the path. Rhythm just stands and smiles.

"...I'll admit, he's doing a pretty good job." Rhythm says to himself. "...Hm, but this Dark Blue robot... Hopefully HE'S not going around playing tricks again."
