Sam could feel the energy hurtling toward; even though he expected her to be serious, he didn't imagine that she would try to kill him right off the back. The time he spent on this planet conditioned his mind away from the possibility for the most part, but this was most certainly an effective refresher that his presence was NOT welcomed by all. Even with the Flow aiding him, his lack of total control over it strained his ability to maintain the enhanced state as he dodged the claw swipes and lunging bites the Light Lion took at him.
The blocks hurtling toward him were no major obstacle, his body doing quite well to avoid the additional assaults; however, the change in the Pharaoh's energy definitely took him by surprise. What made it more difficult was that he knew the Flow was useless as a physical assault technique, its inherent nature more suited to defense. However, as Sam and the Lion danced about for what seemed like hours, playing cat and mouse with each other, his concentration faltered. He felt his connection with the Flow sever; only because of quick thinking and the will to survive did he call out "Stoneskin!" His flesh hardened almost instantly to something akin to a thick layer of diamond as he then waited those few fractions of a second for the Light Lion to strike, knowing he couldn't avoid it. Stoneskin would allow him to live; it wouldn't mitigate all of the damage, though, so that meant he was definitely going to feel it.
