Before Simon could any leeway towards the tower a small familiar creature revealed itself. Even without his phone telling him what it was he would have recognized it as a Mettaur which at least explained the battle chip but in a way that raised only more questions. Still forcing himself to sound calm he addressed the girl again. "I have no idea what is going but that is an enemy from a video game I've played. We should be fine as long as we don't stand directly in front of it." Following his own advice Simon side stepped until he and the Mettaur were standing diagonally from each other.

Meanwhile either due to Simon's Omniphone sending some kind of signal upon detecting the virus or simply because some timer ran out Solarman began to wake up.
