<Snipped quote by Techspert>

We’re on a clock, I know! 
*Takes the ball in my free hand, clicks down on an inconspicuous button on it, then hurls it at the bird. It detonates when close before contact in a swath of fire and shrapnel*
I want to try something but I want to make sure I won’t get caught off guard first.

*Recedes, the shrapnel pelting my body and feathers with shrapnel and temporarily dampening the cold aura*
