--- Marigold --- (Just after Lily got hit in the head)

Marigold swam forward as quickly as she could… but she was too late. Nothing was faster then teleportation. *DAMMIT!* Marigold couldn't help but curse internally as she watched a flash of light go off in front of March. It wasn't hard to guess what happened and Marigold was rather angry with herself because of it.

*Damn. Lily took a risk because I asked her to and then due to my carelessness March was able to take her out. I don't know how I'm going to do it… but I'm going to ensure that March gets knocked out as well. If Blue wins? So be it. I'm going to ensure that March loses.*

Marigold leapt onto March's back and wrapped her legs around March's waist. Then, in one swift motion she let go of her spear to snap March's neck. That's where things started to go wrong. March tensed up, raising her shoulders slightly. This meant, instead of breaking March's neck, all Marigold could do was turn her head a bit until March's chin and shoulder collided.

*Dammit what is she made of! I'd swear her parents were rock golems if I didn't know better.* While Marigold was getting over the shock March grabbed one of Marigold's feet and crushed it. Not wanting to allow the human to win. Marigold pulled her spear around and in front of March before pulling it in tightly against March's neck to try and choke her out.

March had caught this movement and angled her chin down to prevent it. Marigold growled as the spear was caught in between March's chest and chin.

*Seriously! I'm using BOTH ARMS. How does she have stronger neck muscles then I do arm muscles! I'm strong you know? I'm as strong as I can possibly be without muscles the size of dinner plates… but apparently March took that as a fucking goal and blew past it. The difference in strength shouldn't be this extreme dammit!*

With March and Marigold in a stalemate for now, with March unable to permanently injure Marigold, and Marigold unable to do much damage at all to March… it was time for the third player in this game to take advantage. Seeing the two squabbling, Blue took her time to set up the best water shield she could manage before setting off another water bomb. It exploded of course.

The shockwave slammed through all three remaining contestants.

The bomb had been placed right above Marigold and March's heads and they took the brunt of the damage. March's eardrums had been destroyed and blood was leaking from her mouth. Her muscles and bones were sore… but that was it. March was well used to a bit of pain in her arms, and as such her strength wasn't reduced in the slightest.

Her reaction speed was slightly shot, and the blood loss could become a problem but it was liveable for now.

Marigold was much worse off… for all of five seconds. Her eyeballs had ruptured which was not a pleasant experience even for the masochist. Being blinded while in the middle of combat sparked a touch of instinctive fear in Marigold. Until it cleared up moments later.

By the time she had her bearings back again her injuries had all healed… but in that moment of inattention March had managed to wrench away the spear. Marigold had been using.

Finally there was Blue. She'd put up a shield and it did help… but it really wasn't designed to block that sort of impact. It shattered Blue's concentration, her eardrums, and rattled her ribcage. With her concentration gone the bandages she'd been maintaining with a trickle of mana had fallen apart. Blood seeped from her wounds, and despite taking the least damage by far… she was in the worst state.

Marigold wasn't one to let such a chance go. Despite March's theft of her weapon Marigold just smiled. In one swift motion she removed an item from her storage ring, a slightly fancy looking glass jar, and swiftly opened it and eat a candy from inside. Marigold felt her stomach rebelling for a moment before she started to expand in size.

As she grew it became harder to keep a proper grip on March and the human managed to blast out of the hold with twin trails of steam. Marigold let it happen as she swiped the treasures Lily had once had on her person. They hadn't floated too far away. Without a good way to hold them all at this size, Marigold just shoved them into her mouth and hoped for the best.

*Better not swallow one of those rings. It'll be a right pain to get out. I think Thyme said that you had to present your treasures for them to count… so I'd have to cut open my stomach to get them if I swallow. Not impossible but definitely hard to do myself. So… let's NOT do that.*

March glared at Marigold's larger form and decided there was only one course of action. So she stabbed Marigold in the side with 'her' new spear. Marigold felt the attack and immediately backhanded March away. It didn't hurt the mountain of muscle but it did force her away for a bit. Marigold picked up the tiny spear and sighed. "This is all your can manage?

It's a bit small isn't it March?"

"Are you making sex jokes at a time like this?" asked March to stall for time.

"Well why not? You're the one that tried to get at me insides with your spear. The fact that it's tiny is just the icing on the cake," said Marigold.

"Marigold… you can't make me feel bad about having a small dick when I don't have one to begin with. What's even the point?" retorted March entirely to keep the conversation going. Perhaps those candies didn't last long and Marigold would end up back at normal size soon.

While this discussion was going on, Blue had gathered up her treasures together and was slowly trying to edge away. The net was pretty close so she couldn't just flee, but if she could sneak off and find something to hide behind that would work just fine. For the moment, she was just floating as slowly as possible backwards while making it look like she wasn't moving at all.

"I mean… having no dick at all does seem to imply it's pretty small," said Marigold.

"That doesn't even make any sense," retorted March.

"Yeah honestly not my best work," said Marigold.

It was at that moment Marigold started to notice Blue floating away, but gave no outward sign of it. *So… on the one hand Blue is definitely trying to escape right now. On the other hand… I need to beat March's face in. Which is easier said then done. Despite being so much larger my strength doesn't seem to have increased much, if at all.

When I knocked March away I was expecting some damage but she seems fine. So… what should I do? Perhaps try and force her out of the ring?

That would give Blue a golden opportunity to run… but I think I'm fine with that. Unless I feel it's necessary to keep Blue around to take out March? Hmm… I think I can live with it if Blue escapes. I'll make the attempt but if it fails I'll chase after Blue. Just have to keep an eye on her and it should be fine.*

Marigold got to work straight away she reached out a hand towards March and swiped her from the 'air' without much of a problem. March tried to escape but all she did was break Marigold's skin. Her hand was too squishy for March to force properly leverage on it, and with Marigold's tolerance of pain it wasn't worth worrying about. Marigold grinned down at the person in her hand. *Perfect.

This will work.*

Marigold swam as fast as she could towards the net while March struggled. It quickly became apparent that it wasn't going to matter as the net approached March started to smash her hands into Marigold's fingers with as much force as possible. Breaking the bone and crushing the skin and muscle to minimal effect. Soon the net was there… and Marigold simply threw March through one of the large holes.

March growled out a curse as she was teleported away.

After a moment to celebrate, and it really was just a moment. Marigold turned around and trailed after Blue, attempting to find her and take her out of the round but nothing stood out to the elf. Sure the pile of treasure was nearby, but Blue didn't seem to be.

Marigold would continue her search until the round ended… unaware that Blue had been knocked unconscious due to blood loss and taken into the medical area.

Marigold was panicking as the timer ticked down, unaware of this fact. She didn't know if it would be better to start gathering up all of the various treasures or keep looking for Blue… eventually biting the bullet and leaving the fae in second place and picking up the treasures instead.

Yet in truth it was just Marigold swimming around… so who did that make the runner up?
