i guess, chaning icons rfrequently has its ups and downs... ups: cuz i dont rly get associated too much wth 1 icon but down because now ill have less tochoose from.. but im starting to understand and im not really that upset over it..

She also killed one of the Schiff back when they attacked Red Shields boat.

Not sure who it was, but I remembrer her sort of slicing the guy in half and him flying off the edge of the boat.

Seems pretty dead to me.

I had not thought of that.  It would certainly make her do a double take, and would probably eliminate the chances of her actually killing them.

K.

Then explain exactly how it would work then.

Because the blood wouldn't last long inside of a bullet casing. 

They'd either have to have Saya right there as a blood bank for the bullets during battle or figure out some kind of plausible storage system for the bullets that could extend their shelf life.

Which game are u talking about? Sounds like a great way to take out Diva, may the betch die.

It wouldn't be too hard to keep the blood liquid. They could use the same agents they use when drawing blood samples. The bullets would probably be good for 24 hours. But heck even if they were only good for 6 hours, that's one heck of an advantage.

Hmmm.

Another thing, would the blood even survive being fired?

I know next to nothing when it comes to bullets and the like but how would a liquid inside of a shell react to being fired?

Well it should survive just fine unless ur using some kind of high velocity round. Putting it in a .45, I can't see anything bad happening to it. It would work like this. Take hollow point talon shells (they would be enclosed at the top to keep the blood in) with an opening at the bottom to pour in the blood. Using a preservative like when they take blood samples, they could inject Saya's blood into the cavity. Then press the shell onto the casing with the powder like any normal bullet. Now when u fire it at a chiropteran the bullet will shred and pierce their bodies no problem. Talon shells shred into these razor blade things that can cut through bullet proof vests. I think they got banned because of that. People called em cop killer bullets. As it shreds inside their body it would release the blood and start crystalizing them. Dead chiropteran. The shell should remain potent for as long as they can keep blood samples at the doctor's office. U could even refrigerate them to extend their life. Any way u slice it u've got a big window to use them in combat.

Might work, except for the heating of the bullet on being fired, that would likely fry the blood before it reached it's target, plus preservatives add to the blood would only keep the blood for so long, that why the Red Cross is always holding blood drives, the shelf life isn't very long.  Whole blood has the shortest self life, with stuff like plasma and platelets lasting longer.  That's why I think the only way it would work is if they could isolate the factor in the blood that causes the crystallization, that might be stable enough to last long enough to be of some use in bullets.

If the powder charge was too hot they could use a smaller charge, better insulation on the bullet, or use another firing mechanism. Like a super paint ball gun. Youma chiropterans don't seem to have especially tough skin. It wouldn't have an indefinate shelf life, for sure. But I think several hours to a day is for sure. Isolating the blood factor is the best way to go of course. If they could get that, they could mass produce em. If it turned out to be part of Saya's immune system and involved stuff like white blood cells, then that probably wouldn't pan out.
