657 WC oh. This is bad. |
HACK. HACK COUGH HACK. Hhhhhhhhhhtch--
Chimera sputtered and coughed as he tried to get the dust and dirt from his nose and the back of his mouth. It was awful. He wasn't sure how normal human noses might fare against that sort of attack, but his nose was both far more sensitive and he did have the nose of a dog. It was more open and more crap could get into it. Ugh, he could almost taste the dirt on his tongue. That was a smart move but goddamn was it a shitty one.
His ears stayed tuned at least as he coughed up and snorted out the last of the offending debris. They hadn't made it too far. Up the stairs and across the floor above. Chimera blinked his eyes faster. Still ached. But now he could breathe again so he had to get moving. Chimera started for the staircase as a good pace--not full speed, but full speed on stairs with his level of dexterity was a bad idea on top of the other bad ideas. He could burst forward once he had a clear line of "sight" on the two of th...
"Hhaa...?"
Chimera's footsteps faltered as he reached the second part of the platform, breathing in a peculiar scent. Sweet, metallic, and strong in this tiny little stairwell where the air only came from the doors above and below. Chimera's whole body staggered as it seemed to go forward when his feet had stopped, eyes suddenly open and wide. It smelled really good. His head was starting to spin, his already blurry vision getting worse as the dizziness set in. It smelled so good. So sweet like syrup and yet salty and bitter like copper and he could feel his mouth watering before he brought a paw up to the front of his muzzle.
[smear:#46c3eb]Wh...wait, what? No this is...this is...blood...? Where--but Kiersa healed Monty. He wasn't...there wasn't a trail between here and...and it doesn't smell the same...it's lighter. It's sweeter.[/smear:#32297a:0]
[smear:#32297a]So sweet and good and I'm so hungry--[/smear:#000000:0]
[smear:#000000]I'm so HUNGRY.[/smear:#cc0000:0]
HUNGRY. HUNGRY. PREY. PREY'S BLOOD. PREY'S BLOOD E A T--
His head snapped up. The smell was weaker here. A trail. A trail to follow toward a bleeding injured prey. Food. He moved up the stairs three at a time to reach the well where the smell was stronger but dirty. He still stopped for just long enough to sniff at the door frame. Sweet blood. Dirtied by debris but still fresh, still warm, still sweet. Flecks trailed along the ground, fresher, and yet they weren't necessary in finding his prey. They were straight ahead. He could smell them. Smell the wound. Smell the blood dripping out of fair soft skin that his teeth would make very quick work of. Small weak prey.
At full speed Chimera burst from the stairwell, making noise as he barreled through upturned desks and chairs without caring for stealth. Why would he? He was faster. More than fast enough to catch this prey. Fast enough to snap it up in his jaws and more than strong enough to clamp down on its neck and tear its tiny throat out. Supple. Blood. Food. He'd reach them in seconds, and should light shine on him, there would clearly be something wrong.
For one, his eyes weren't the same. The large square pupils that made him look much like the goat he joked about being had changed, shrunken down to mere pinpricks against the red. The red had also blown out and hidden any trace of white. They looked entirely red now, and more canine than bovidae.
And there was also the fact that he was charging them with his muzzle pulled back, his large lupine teeth fully visible as he lunged directly at Kiersa's wound.
MINE.

"Sooo... you did this last year too?"
Mia was sitting in one of the observation rooms of the Saikyuen building, leaning back in a hefty chair they'd wheeled in from a seperate office just so they had something that could take her weight when she was trying to get comfy, hands resting behind her head as she glanced to the seperate screens that were looking over the fight. A small team of analysts and 'environmental managers' as they dubbed themselves were running behind the scenes equations and pushing the right buttons at the right times to keep everything stable while also taking notes on how to improve similar simulations in the future. Yumi herself, a young red headed student, was sitting not far away and taking her own series of notes since this was technically a 'class' she'd helped arrange with RedHorn's supervision.
"Yeah... well, I gave Geist the idea but I didn't have enough experience to help with the management that year. Still it was nice to see in action, and generally it's good for the younger students to see what they might make of themselves in a few years ya know?" She chimed happily as the two of them continued to observe the fight, Mia herself not able to dispute Yumi's view of things, just sad she wasn't a teacher that year so she could have seen that too. She reared forward in her seat, resting her elbows on her knees as her hands hung limply between them.
"Well it's going well so far I'll give you-... oh fuck..."
"Huh?" Yumi turned from the notes she was making and looked to Redhorn, tilting her head curious what exactly had her attention. As she looked back to the screen one of the automated detection systems was highlighting the fact Kiersa seemed to have cut her palm open. Yumi hissed but shook it off. "D-don't worry she's a healer. It shouldn't even leave a scar."
Mia shook her head harder and pushed hard out of her chair. "Not the issue." She started to make her way towards the door that seperated the observation room and the simulation directly, pausing as her hand rested on the handle and furrowing her brow as she looked back. "Didn't the last fight end in a rampage too?"
"... A rampage?"
Concrete crumbled as a wall of flesh and muscle rushed through the halls of the darkened building, the lights starting to rapidly switch on as the people in the back room had been alerted to the nature of the situation leaving Red Horn with the ability to fucking see as she caught the fuzzball that was about to rush down the poor Kiersa. She lashed out, grasping the for on his chest and wrenching him off the ground, rearing back only to slam him into the opposing wall. She doubted he'd go down so quickly. She'd never personally seen him like this, just read the files about this being one of his... 'weaknesses'. For now regardless of if he kicked or squirmed though she'd hold him at arms length to the wall, thanking fuck she likely had longer arms than him.
"You kids okay?" She'd call back to the other two in the room with her, holding a firm grasp on Chimera to make sure he didn't kick up more of a fuss. If he was still swinging she'd pull her head back away from him just to be safe, growling a little in frustration at the fact this had even happened. She raised a forearm, bit into the bandages she wrapped around her forearms as part of her hero costume and tore off enough to wrap around a hand a few times. Maybe wasn't the most sanitary thing to do, using her mouth like that, but she'd fling her head with enough force for the bandage to reach Kiersa. "Hand. Quick."

Beaumont had understood Kiersa's signals! That made the young blonde feel a bit better about what was going on, although she felt terrible about trying to take advantage of Chimera's possible haemophobia like this. They were about half way across the current floor when she heard Chimera making his approach up the stairs before a strange sound reached her ears. It sounded like... growling?
She shone a light in the direction of the growling to see what was causing it... It was at this point the young maid realised the horrible and terrible mistake in judgement she had made. Chimera hadn't been hesitating because he was afraid of the blood itself... He had been afraid of what the blood could do to him! "I'm sorry!" she cried out, crossing her arms in front of her and squeezing her eyes tight as she set off her Quirk's light at her currently full blast!
There was a sudden crashing noise that followed after, and the room suddenly seemed a lot brighter? Kiersa slowly opened her eyes to find Miss Kearney holding Chimera against the wall. Well, it made sense that there would be a teacher watching the match just in case anything happened... "I-Is Chimera-senpai g-going to b-be a-alright?" she asked in response to Miss Kearney's question about if they were okay.
As RedHorn threw her the bandage, Kiersa quickly began to wrap it around her hand even as she began using her own Quirk to stem the blood. With the lights on now, she began to quickly look around the floor. If this building had been designed to resemble an office, then it stood to reason that there should be a cleaning cupboard, and if there was a cleaning cupboard... A glint of red and yellow caught her eye. On the other side of the hole.
"I-I'll b-be right back!" she exclaimed as she started to rush over towards the cupboard, trying to be quick but careful at the same time as she tried to get around the hole to reach her goal. If they were lucky then there should be some cleaning materials inside, which she could then use to start removing the blood that she'd sprinkled around the place.
But when she arrived it was... empty. Of course it was empty, this was a training facility. A replica, a hollow shell... "Think, think, think..." Kiersa muttered to herself as she made her way back around the hole, before deciding to start tearing the skirt attached to her prototype hero costume, and started to try and scrub up the blood. One singular thought was running through her head right now. <This is all my fault I've got to fix my mess, this is all my fault I've got to fix my mess, this is all my fault I've got to fix my mess.>

Everything seemed to be going okay, they were on their way to success through the undeniable power of teamwork!
[break][break]
Wait.
[break][break]
What...what was that sound?
[break][break]
Slowly, the princely blonde in the attire of a knight allowed his icy blue optics to follow the trail of Kiersa's light.
[break][break]
...
[break][break]
Growling....?
[break][break]
That...couldn't be good.
[break][break]
It wasn't his gut tying itself up in knots at the scene of the goat senpai losing his mind to blood lust. Chucking the chunk of cement in his general direction, he wasn't able to shield his eyes like last time since he was in a fight or flight scenario! Okay...he was definitely more useless now than before, the teen's vision was just a hazy, rainbow speckled blur and he was trying to walk away from the sound of voices. Yeah he couldn't do anything of benefit or use in this condition so the smart thing seemed like stay the hell away from the danger zone.
[break][break]
Flailing and wobbling his arms in front of him, it was like watching a disoriented moth...more so when he walked straight into a wall.
[break][break]
Baaaack it up....
[break][break]
Aaaand step a little bit then....
[break][break]
BONK right back into another part of the wall!
[break][break]
"I...think I'll...wait here...." Sliding down to sit on the ground...he couldn't see a damn thing, so he had to hang in there and wait for this to pass! So for now, it was time out.

368 WC Could have been worse |
A sharp scream only made the chase more exciting, and he was so close to snapping her up, but the blinding burst of light made him whine and stagger and bat at his eyes like he'd gotten dust in them rather than been blinded. It hurt. It hurt and he couldn't see. But he could still smell. And he knew she was right there. Her wound was right there, and it was still dripping, and inside of her even more blood and meat and bone was waiting for him to eat. He tried to push forward towards her, jaws open wide--
Chimera's teeth didn't find purchase in Kiersa's thin shoulders, but instead a heavy fist collided with his chest and knocked him off his balance before he felt his back slam into the wall. A guttural snarl ripped from his throat as he swiped in the vague direction of whatever was holding him down, claws not caring if they found and tore through flesh or not. An animal did not like to be trapped. It didn't care about revenge or hurting, just getting freed. He needed to be freed. He snapped his teeth and twisted his neck like he was trying to bite down on the thing holding him in place, but couldn't get an angle.
He needed freedom. He needed it. It still smelled so good. So sweet. And it was moving away. It was getting away. He snarled louder and kept struggling.
But the farther it got, and the farther away he was from the stairwell, and the more and more blood was scrubbed away, the less he fought. His limbs were so heavy, and his head ached, and he was still so hungry. But the rush was gone. He still hissed and clawed at Mia's arm, but not with strength behind it. It was just lingering instinct of a trapped animal trying to get free.

Watching Kiersa struggle to find some way to clean up the blood while the energy started to fade from Chimera, Mia let out a deep sigh, just... surprised this happened twice in a row, and somehow even more surprised that it was a different kid raging each time. She really knew she had no right to talk given the incident with her but god DAMN guys vet your students better? Chimera was a good kid sure and yeah yeah the odd kid was bound to slip through the cracks but... he turned wild at the sight of blood. How on earth was he expected to be a hero if he couldn't get that under control before graduation? Did he just have to stay away from every rescue operation incase a civilian had a cut? Was he expected to wear nose plugs? So many questions on how he was expected to function as a hero like this filled her head but... she didn't voice them. If only because she knew he wasn't in a state to listen.
"And shit like this is why even I try and incorporate some first aid tools into my uniform..." She let out a heavy sigh through her nose as Chimera's energy started to calm down, turning the kid suddenly so his front was against the wall and holding him there till he either came back to sanity or just passed the fuck out. Whichever came first, she just couldn't be assed with those nips and scrapes at the open wounds on her arms anymore. She looked back to the two kids and just let the energy fade from her shoulders.
"Sorry kids... don't worry you'll get good credit for the class. You might wanna just er... head on out. Yumi will give you a debriefing on how you guys did. She was the one taking notes anyway."
(As Kei said this'll be the last round so don't actually ask yumi for her notes XD)

Kiersa continued to scrub, and scrub, and scrub until the fabric in her hands was practically and almost quite literally erased by sheer friction alone. And even once that piece was gone, she tore off another piece from her prototype hero outfit's skirt and kept on scrubbing. She had to remove the blood she'd spilled, she had to fix her mistake, she had to, she had to, she had to, she had to.
By the time she was finished scrubbing, all that remained of the skirt were the tattered frayed edges clinging to the base itself. But even with Miss Kearney's words saying that they could head on out just now, Kiersa didn't feel like she was finished just yet. No, there was still work to be done. Still a mess that she had made to be cleaned up.
The young blonde student made her way slowly over to where RedHorn was holding Chimera at bay, the poor older student flailing like a trapped animal... an animal that she had been responsible for reducing him to in her stupidity. "I'm sorry, this is all my fault. I'm sorry, this is all my fault. I'm sorry, this is all my fault. I'm sorry, this is all my fault." Kiersa murmured over and over again as she held up her hands towards Mia's scratched and clawed at arms, and Chimera himself as well whilst she tried to use her Healing Quirk to mend their wounds.
Wounds that the pair had suffered from each other, all because of her. This should never have happened. This was an accident that could have been avoided if she hadn't been so stupid. If she hadn't erroneously tried to take advantage of what she thought someone was afraid of... And she had the audacity to think that she could be a hero? To think someone who'd do that could consider themselves a good person?
If someone were to look at Kiersa's eyes right now... they'd appear to be practically vacant and dead. Almost doll-like in appearance, albeit moist as she worked to hold back her tears as she continued her work to try and fix the mistakes she had made. The young blonde was practically working off of auto-pilot right now, heedless of the world around her. All she knew was that she had made a mess, she had caused all of this, and it was her responsibility to make it right.
By any means.

What the...Kiersa didn't sound alright...at all. The teen was still recovering from being blinded out of no where and couldn't see a darn thing aside from blurry sparkles and rainbows. That didn't mean he was deaf, though! So he did what he could to follow the sound of his partner's voice, carefully and slowly tapping an prattling about like a confused moth. Trying to avoid the direction of Red Horn's voice and Chimera's struggles, it wasn't exactly going very well on this mystical magical adventure of operation: help Kiersa! This was a terrible idea, probably one of the worst he's had all day since he fumbled and fell through and into the hole!
[break][break]
With a fall cushioned by a desk...he figured operation: help Kiersa was an absolute flop and...would do that when he's in a better condition. No one knew that a hero student that went absolutely berserk around blood was enrolled in the school...right? Or maybe the hero program took pity upon people and allowed them to enroll anyway...even if they weren't fit to be on the field. Maybe he, himself wasn't a qualified hero himself and...would it be better to simply drop out in the near future. Perhaps... "A-ahm...I...I'm okay...I think...hn...yes, this is the desk that was thrown at me...the door shouldn't be far from here..." Moving along as he commentated, crawled about on his merry way!
