Considering the future (Open/Thorn)

[Stigma Wyatt]

Stigma's a bit stunned!

[Thorn Wyatt]

Thorn is slammed straight to the ground, but he seems almost unphased judging by the smile that suddenly grows across his face.

He kicks out at Donovan's kneecap with his other leg, looking to dislocate the knee at the very least.

[Donovan]

The kick landed the crunch noise was disconcerting... but not Donovan's problem right now! As he fell forward he aimed to slam his metal fist square I'm the middle of Thorns chest!

Atk: 77

[Stigma Wyatt]

Stigma walks towards the two of them having a tussle.

"What is this about?" she'd ask, as if she wasn't just watching the two of them fight.

[Thorn Wyatt]

Donovan's fist slams right into Thorn's chest, who lets out a mouthful of blood, causing it to drip down his chin afterwards.

Still, he smiles again, turning towards Donovan to swing his fist for Donovan's face!

"Thorn told him to stay away from you."

[Donovan]

Donovan lifted his arm to block but the impact still hit hard enough to make his head ring. His metal arm clashing with his skin caused him to bleed. Black wispy smoke started to appear around Donovan!

"I was told not to save her not to stay away! But either way fuck you!"

He would yell as he slammed his fist down on Thorn's chest again!

[Stigma Wyatt]

Well she won't be getting a rational discussion right now.

She looks back down at her wrist. Now's probably a good time to problem solve with her Qi. This is what this was going to be about, anyway. Those two just kinda sped it up.

Stigma would slice her arm, letting the blood come rushing out before giving her arm a swing towards the two boys to plant her blood on them. You know. While they weren't paying her any mind.

Wyatt Bloodline Zero Ability-
Tainted Blood Magic: Stigma is capable of planting her blood on someone. Should she do so she can draw with blood on herself sapping the opponents highest stat by -9, and raising that stat for Stigma by +22. Stigma can only lower each stat of an opposing character once per stat, though her bonus can stack up to two times for a total of +44. This effect lasts for 4 posts. This ability can affect multiple people at once.

[Thorn Wyatt]

"It was the la-"

Thorn's retort is cut off by the chest punch once again.

Thorn holds on to the metal arm by the wrist, pulling on it to yank Donovan into his next punch, aiming for the face once more!

He doesn't notice the blood on him, just yet.

[Donovan]

Donovan's helmet closes before the impact but the impact still rung his bell! Gritting his teeth he raised his metal fist again! Only this time he focused on using his new ability to try something out! A shadowy black chain would shoot out of his back and wrap around his arm and fist! Then he would slam the chain covered fist onto Thorn's chest again!

Zero Ability/First Gift (Upgraded): When Donovan takes damage that causes him to bleed a black mist flows around his body and his muscles become more refined and he has an increase in strength and Defense (and rage) +20 Atk +12 Def

Chain Creation: Donovan is able to summon 1 chain per 10 Base Eng. Each chain grants +5 Eng. If chains are used to attack they deal 100% Eng dmg. (Chains can extend and retract and be maneuvered in any way Donovan wants within 20ft, if the chains extend past 20ft they behave like normal chains and just drop to the ground)

Def: 77

Qi used: 3/13

[Stigma Wyatt]

Interesting. Not a huge difference.

Then perhaps she'd try something different.

She suddenly steals Don's Beskar arm, equipping it to Thorn before using her bloodline on Donovan.

That would be sure to change things up a bit, right? Perhaps more noticeably so since...Don is down one arm.

Qi: 2/26

[Thorn Wyatt]

The chains disappear from Donovan's arm... before his arm disappears!?

Thorn is momentarily confused.

Before he goes to slap Donovan in the face with that metal arm that had appeared in his hand!

[Donovan]

Donovan's arm was gone. She... took his arm... and gave it too her brother who had attacked him first... Was she really a friend? As Donovan was hit he and his helmet would go flying. Donovan hit the ground. Hard.

"So, you really do have it out against me."

Donovan said through clinched teeth as he put his helmet back on. Both of the chains would erupt from Donovan's back and swing wildly at both Stigma and Thorn!

[Thorn Wyatt]

Even as the chains start forming, they quickly disappear once more, and Thorn goes to smack Donovan in the back with the metal arm again!

[Stigma Wyatt]

Stigma had prepared to take the damage, only to see it fizzle out.

Interesting. Thorn wasn't able to do that the last time she spoke to him...

Donovan's words keep her from proceeding with another experiment.

"Ah, wait is this an argument?"

As if it just hit her.

[Donovan]

Donovan was left defenseless and sent flying through a wall of the building beside him. There he lays coughing and in pain.

"No -cough cough- this is a 2 on 1 fight that -cough cough cough- is bullshit!"
