The simulation didn't hesitate, as the fight wasn't called, instead throwing its energy blade into the falling solar's back, right between the shoulder blades, and THEN casting a custom spell, an expanding sphere of sonic energy that was like a low bypass jet engine that had been red lined.<br/><br/>The construct outside the ring just rolled its head, and waited for Avi to finish doing whatever she was doing. The sphere would hit the real her, and then it would draw and fire its rifle, as she had broken melee range with it. The shield shards returned to the simulated opponent, and formed a defensive screen around its back and flanks, slowly flitting randomly about as they waited for the next attack.
