Marina was suddenly blasted aside by a burst of death energy as Weather Report blunder in talking about his human past caused the Reapers to punish her by turning her into a conduit for omnicidal forces. Thankfully, she moved to protect her beloved Elementals, keeping up her perfect defenses as she did so. Then, another exchange of spells followed, in which Marina and Weather Report were again evenly matched (oh, and Black Hole Sun's body was tossed into the crossfire, too).<br/><br/>By then, though, the Engineer was already able to use Epic Neural Shock again, interrupting her opponent's latest castings and allowing her to get in melee with her Omni-Tool's Glorious Solar Sabre, which finally gave her the supremacy. Weather Report did not know what hit him; okay, he did, but that didn't change the fact that his arm got chopped off, and he was now running away from her.<br/><br/>In response, Marina, instead of keeping in melee, began firing more plasma bolts at her opponent, finally scoring immensely harmful hits on him. It appeared as though she would finally gain the first kill of this entire combat. However, Weather Report seemed to still have some fight in him, and let loose another baragge of spells and Charms, which Marina had to counter once again, getting hit once or twice.<br/><br/>She was running out of Essence, and had to end this quickly. Choosing to rush her opponent, she stabbed him with Reinforce's Glorious Solar Sabre, finally killing him. However, the woman, after the use of so much energy, felt faint, and it was only her Solar fortiude that kept her from collapsing entirely. However, she had to withdraw from the battle and dispel her Elementals, forcing her to deploy a Turret.<br/><br/>There, she just sat, with her Turret taking out anyone who tried to attack her, until she would regain Essence.
