The Beserkergang is Born. (Sarah/Open)

Is that Zoe? Acknowledging me? Sarah remembered the shop class they were in where zoe was totally ignoring her, and narrowed her eyes slightly, noticing that she waved at her while getting students to safety it seemed. Well that was something, clear playing field. She didn't really care though, BACK TO THE MONSTER who had double jumped. Buster slammed hard into the lockers, getting stuck in them as Steven, or whatever the heck this was that had control of him, slammed a hand into her shoulder and then proceeded to toss her hard.

Without her right arm as she flew from the throw her resistance to spinning was less than optimal and she spun a little greater than she would have hoped but came down hard on her back, sliding down the hall rather than rolling in a painful hit. "Ouchyyyyy," She said as she got up and turned around. It didn't hurt a ton but it had stung to land on her ass like that. She got up and turned toward him.

"Alright, let's try that again. Steven?" She would turn her charm on, her skin glowing, her voice soft and her smell alluring, "Wake up Steven, regain control of yourself."

She wondered if this was like her side effects, if this was the thing that lived inside of him after the events in New York. If so it confirmed her suspicions about what the thing inside of her was, a byproduct of Aegis. She could feel the purring inside of her of the beast that lurked within. She remebered the clearing in the orchard. And she knew that she had to get him to a point where he was stronger than this thing.

[OOC: Bld: 19

Tier 3 Qi: Charm {Use 1/2}

Sarah's Qi impacts her ability to charm those around her, creating an alluring scent, a gentle glow, and softening her voice. While opponents may not be swooned, it can serve as a distraction.
People attempting to fight Sarah suffer -15 Wisdom while players who perform actions Sarah ask them to are granted +15 wisdom. Effects of charm are up to players discretion.]

As The Beserkergang charged toward Sarah, she attempted to speak the beast down. The Beserkgang step would faltered a step slowing slightly, as Steven deep inside screamed at his body to stop. However the beast fought back, eye bursting to a glow of red and white. Not the normal rose designs that appeared when Steven senses focused, but images of fire melting ice. The beast was using all it could to fight the effect of Sarah Qi boosted visage. 

When The Beserkergang closed the gap between them, he would hop to the left, Sarah's right side in order to avoid her side that had the giant weapon. Landing on a step of his right foot, almost as if he was going to run past her, The Beserkergang right hand would come up in a palm towards her chest. His hand as it moved would be covered in mist, steam boiling from the hand to try and land a scalding blow to her body.

Blooming Rose (Perm Consumable): +15 WIS for one post. 

Born of Fire and Ice (Tier 1) [1 post per 5 INT]: Steven can turn raw emotion to Qi energy that take the form of Fire and Ice mixing, turning his attacks to Steaming blow that can scald an opponent. Steven physical attacks do 1/2 his INT in damage due to the Steam that seeps from his body as he strikes. (2 of 10 Tier 1 used) -- Effect boosted to 3/4 INT by next item. 

Wrath of the Hand: (God Item. Cannot be upgraded. Cannot be traded.) +10 Int. Through his valiant efforts against both the Aegis and the Banshee, Steven was struck with a piercing blow that changed him more than it hurt him. With the energy of the two members of the Hand laying dormant within his blood, Steven can, at any time, call upon it - at the cost that he lose most of his logical sense for power. Based on the sum of the Con or Int of all participants within any thread (whichever sum is greater), Steven can receive one of two abilities. If CON is greater: Steven recieves +10 Con and pain ignore for one post per 10 int. If INT is greater: Steven empowers any of his item or qi abilities by 1/4 his total int, while simultaneously ignoring 10 of his targets Con, at one use per 10 int. (1 of 5 used)

"STAY OUT OF THIS ZOE!" Sarah practically roared as she had to beat the monster to Zoe. While he was distracted she would activate her ring's power and would dash forward with a quick step before planting her foot and front flipping, bringing Buster down in a vertical arc to smash the back of Steven's head. She knew Steven would rather he get seriously hurt than Zoe and as a favor to him, she'd save his conscious some trouble.

"DOWN BOY!" Would be said if the attack worked.

Charging at Zoe, The Beserkergang would be cut off by Sarah intercpting and leaping into the air, turning his head and seeing the flip and incoming sword out the corner of his eye, The Beserkergang did a hard right to try and get out of the blades path. However the lengh of the weapon would still mean that it slammed into his left shoulder hard as he pulled to the side, but strangely it did not get a cry of pain from the beast. 

Instead he kept moving, slamming his right shoulder into the wall from having put a lot into trying to move aside and then, leaping up and placing both feet against the wall he would push off it leaping at Zoe. Only his right arm would come up as part of the leap, his left lagging behind due to the hit taken to the shoulder fucking with it's function. 

The Beserkergang would come down at Zoe from Smashing into the barrier of electricity as hard as he could as he came down, landing on his feet he would bring up both arms and slam into it again and again until it broke, and try to land a hit against Zoe before Sarah could land and be after him once more.
