Warmth drifted from Wade's core; it Gently flowed down his blood vessels and soon reached the scratch. With a slight push from the energy, the wound closed and started scabbing over. The rest of the power went under the scabs, and Wade felt no sting from his thigh anymore. Curiously, Wade picked at the scab and found fresh skin underneath.
"He... Hahaha!" Wade started crackling. This entire experience felt so surreal to him. "Magic!"

Wade drew on the power within to create a small ball of blood to play with in his hands.
"Screech!" the sound of rusted metal on metal filled the pool yard. The sound surprised Wade enough to make him lose concentration on the construct in his hands. Wade quickly looked toward the sound, only to find a small black cat pushing the door to enter the yard. When the cat made eye contact with Wade, it stopped and slowly backed away before running away. Feeling very exposed, Wade quickly looked around before returning to his small apartment.
"Ssshhhh," a long exhale left Wade's mouth. Leaning on the door from inside the apartment, Wade slumped his shoulders. Wade staggered back upright. Walking toward his living room, Wade slapped his cheeks, trying to get the feelings of surrealness to leave. Wade opened his status sheet to look for his next skill and experiment. Wade's eyes fell on the skill [Hemocraft]. When Wade tried to activate the skill, he felt he was missing a vessel. While considering what that could be, Wade unconsciously started to draw blood from within and play with it.

As the blood floated from one hand to the other, Wade considered what the vessel could be. As Wade's eyes flitted around the room, his eyes fell upon his blood. Wade furrowed his eyebrows, deep in concentration.
"[Hemocraft] makes blood constructs, so what better vessel than blood!" Bringing the orb to the center of his hands, Wade concentrated on the blood.

Red energy surged from within Wade's hands as the crimson flowed to the orb floating in front of Wade's chest; it slowly transitioned to a deep gold that turned into strings that floated onto the blood sphere, creating a square mesh and slowly going invisible. Caught off guard by this new color, Wade lost concentration on the ball of blood, but surprisingly, the ball just fell into his hands instead of disappearing. Wade's face transformed from surprise to excitement. Wade now had a semi-permanent creation! Although Wade felt satisfied with this, something felt wrong. Curiously, Wade looked at his status and then his system messages. As he reread them, he saw a curious statement he overlooked.
"1 LF has been stored?" Wade looked curiously at the orb in his hand and the message. Then Wade remembered that his construct stored some life force to maintain themselves. When Wade focused on his body, he felt the orb within his hand. "It's like the orb is still a part of me." Thinking of something, Wade tried to summon another ball; this time, instead of drawing the power from his body, Wade attempted to pull the energy from the orb.

To his surprise, the blood resisted for a moment. The golden mesh flared up momentarily before breaking, and the crimson power within flowed out to the center of Wade's hand, forming another ball of blood. Satisfied with his experiment, Wade almost let go of his control over the energy in the crimson orb. Thinking better of it, Wade grinned before trying to reabsorb the power within the blood.
