Enid had been feeling very nervous about what was about to occur. She had just turned 18 and that was the year that she had to start getting regular blood draws. See you she was the universal donor: she had learned abilities instead of actual super powers, and because of this, she was able to donate her blood to any superhero or supervillain as long as they had powers and a compatible blood type. She was getting off work a bit early to go, and saw KO's mom, Carol, getting off work the same time. Enid looked back to the bodega, and saw a sniveling KO in the window who quickly hid when he saw Enid staring at him.
"Hey KO's mom." Enid greeted.
"Oh, hey!" Carol waved casually. "What are you getting off work early for?"
"Oh, I'm just getting my first blood draw today. I'm going to have to get one every two and a half months now, so, that'll be fun."
"Oh, I have to go through the same thing!"
"Really? I thought only learned abilities and non-super were-animals and humans had to go through that."
"Yup! I studied all kinds of powers back in my day, and can perform them if I see 'em, but physically, I've got no powers."
"Oh?" Enid thought for a moment. "Then, what about KO?"
"Oh, he's got flame powers, electric powers, and ever since he was a were-puppy, sonar."
"I see, so he won't need to donate blood?"
"Well, not as often. Supers usually donate every three months instead of two and a half months." Carol trailed off for a moment. "You have transportation, right?"
"Yeah, I do. But I'm super nervous about this." Enid admitted, scratching the back of her neck.
"Yeah, but the only thing that usually worried me was how KO felt every time. Got a fear of needles now that he's seen me regularly get blood drawn."
"Wouldn't that stop a fear from getting formed? Doesn't he know that you're helping a lot of people?"
"He does, but he hates to see how I have to prepare. And the sight of the needle entering my body makes him cringe."
"Oh."
"What about your parents, Enid?"
"My mom has literally, no blood to draw. And my dad is a born werewolf, meaning he's only able to give blood to other natural werewolves."
Carol gave Enid a confused look. "Wouldn't that make you, like, a were-pire?"
"Nope, my parent's DNA canceled each other out when they had me. My brothers, however, are naturally undead, so, no blood to give there either."
Carol nodded in understanding. "Well, here's some advice: Just keep breathing, and don't look at your blood going into the needle."
"Okay." Enid told her, and after that, the two headed for their respective vehicles.
