Winona glanced around, seeing all kinds of students taking their robotic enemies head on. Bits and pieces were flying. And she hadn’t even managed to get close to one before another student had swooped in and taken it down. “Dammit…” She muttered under her breath, desperately trying to come up with something that she could do. Although her quirk wasn’t the strongest, Winona’s creative uses of it had always managed to set her apart. And so Winona continued to look around, for some tactical inspiration. 

Then in the distance she spotted a glimmer, unclear at first, but as she focused she realized more robots were getting released into the arena. Maybe if she could get to those robots first, she could do some damage, as the other students were still preoccupied with the ones already near them. Without further thought Winona darted forward, dodging best she could. She passed the broken body of a robot and in a split second she noticed another detail - the robot’s ‘eyes’ were located behind a glass barrier. Perhaps, right behind it was also the robot’s motherboard, given these things had a fairly straightforward search-and-attack pattern. And suddenly, Winona had a plan. 

Up ahead there was a small area with trees. Getting to a tree Winona rubbed her hands together and soon began to climb the tree, grabbing onto branches and pulling herself up. Soon enough she was half way up the tree, where she perched on a thicker branch. The new robots stomped and wheeled their way forward, towards the cluster of students below. Winona waited … for the perfect moment … before she lunged, landing directly on the shoulder of one of the larger machines. Clinging to the metal seams of its head, she made her way around to the front, where the eyes were located. And without further ado, clinging on for her life, she began to breathe her heated breath onto the class, quickly turning it flexible before it simply melted off. 

After waiting for a few seconds she reached her hand into the now open cavity, searching for anything - wires, switches - that she could pull out. She quickly felt a bundle of wires connected, pulling at it until the wires were freed. “That should do it.” Winona commented quite confidently, before moving to the opposite shoulder of the robot and preparing herself for another jump to an adjacent machine. When she was safely on top of another robot she glanced back at the one she had just attacked. To her disappointment, it had not slowed down. However, it was steering rapidly off of the straight course all the others were following, about to walk into a tree. Winona hadn’t damaged it’s systems enough - or at least not the right parts - to take it down. But at least now she had a strategy. 

She dodged an arm of the distraught bot she was now perched on, heating the glass again and waiting a moment for it to cool. She plunged her hand in again, now fumbling past the wires and searching further. Her hand found a round object, slightly warm to the touch, and wires funneling out the sides. 

“Huh,” Winona smiled, eyes sparkling. “That's interesting.”
