Almost. Bringing his blade round, Sephiroth used its edge to divert the clone's attack before balling his free hand into a fist and proceeding to slam it into the umbral warrior's jaw. A move that sent it rocketing back to the hardwood floor below where it was swiftly impaled, the 1st Class SOLDIER having brought the tip of his sword down upon the shadow's skull as he landed in a rather composed heap. The darkened wisps of smoke that comprised the swordsman's body swirled around Sephiroth menacingly as he slowly rose to his full height, banishing the arcane fumes with a simple flick of his sword, the hem of his coat briefly flaring out behind him. Twisting his lips into a downright patronizing grin, Sephiroth locked gazes with the girl, his catlike eyes narrowing appraisingly as he assumed a [url=https://64.media.tumblr.com/724e94c6ddbfcf1edae6e82d24484709/870cd1ed52af0872-62/s540x810/08da4bba92dbf4b74e2ec89e3e247239b268fe50.gifv]battle ready stance.[/url] [color=#7A7A7A]"Heh, you almost got me..."[/color] He continued to stare, watching her create magical duplicates of herself with an expression of pure bemusement, deflecting the few bolts that had been flung his way as his eyes continued to bore into Cia. Seemingly staring past her flesh to gaze at the blackened soul that lay buried deep within.

Giving the sorceress a quiet [i]"hmph"[/i], he brought his hand up to his face, palm open and facing towards her. Within it he summoned a blazing orange flame, the telltale sign of Flare, before gesturing in such a way as to shift it into a deep and almost ethereal looking blue. [color=#7A7A7A]"Unfortunately for you, playtime's over."[/color] Chuckling, he launched Megaflare. A fiery cobalt orb that would result in an even bigger explosion on impact, doubtlessly sending Cia and any doppelgangers caught in the blast flying back several feet back, as well as burning them badly to boot. Seeming to roil and seethe at the very air itself, the hellish projectile set the nearby tables alight as it came barreling towards her.
