Iphone 5 battery is stuck after water danage?

My brothers iphone 5 got dropped in a pool (not surprisingly) after warning him he should NEVER run around with an iphone near a pool.My dad is trying tonfix the iphone 5 by replacing the batterynsince all the other parts seem in decent condition. The phone is only about a month old. We couldnt get the repair kit until about a week after the phone got water logged so my dad kept the phone in a bag full of rice. When we finally got the kit, my dad was able to take apart the phone easily but when it came to the battery, it wouldnt budge. There was a tag where you should pull out the battery but my dad didnt want to pull on it so hard so that the phone might accidentally break (the phone is so fragile). I thought maybe the phone in a sense "melted" and is stuck to the phone but its most likely not the case. Everytime we pull on the tag though the battery seems to loosen up a bit but not much. Does anyone have any advice on how to remove a stuck battery without extreme force? And also on another note, we did bring the phone to the apple store to see if they could help but they said we would need to pay a bunch of money and my dad is not willing to pay that much money so thats why he is repairing the kit. Again if anyone has any ideas or suggestions please answer.
