"What are you willing to bet that she will use that flame of hers to escape the mist cage?" the old deity asked Lythia.

"She won't." Lythia assured her brother. "The girl is smarter than she looks, she knows the importance of keeping the flame a secret."

"Then she will lose." the old deity declared.

"Actually," Lythia smiled mysteriously, "She is going to win."

Both of them looked at the stage, one with twinkling eyes of amusement and another with a look of intensity. Each of them with their own agenda all for the same reaper by the name, Scarlet the hound.

In the mist cage, Scarlet had tuned out Black Dalia's taunts and concentrated on gathering the essence of Severus's blood which she had not yet refined. It struck her while she was being?contained in this cage like mist that there could be an explosive way out. In the beginning she considered using her flame. It was a part of her after all so technically using it was not cheating but she had been warned severally not to use it against other grim reapers, there was a possibility that she could absorb Black Dalia's soul powers completely.?The flame was too dangerous, it was explosive!!

The word explosive led to her next idea. In the zombie apocalypse, she had seen a human with a lightning superpower which he would use to explode the heads of zombies.?Scarlet considered exploding her own soul power but Severus told her not to dare try it.

She then remembered another thing that had explosive power, the blood of a hell hound. On the list of top ten liquids highly sought after in the underworld hell hound blood was number six.?She had that with her, in her body were the remains of the essence of Severus's blood which she had not yet refined.

So, while Black Dalia laughed and attempted to suffocate Scarlet with her mist until she eventually passed out, Scarlet sat down and concentrated on turning that essence into a round red energy ball that would go off like a bomb. It might have repercussions to her personally but right now, it was her way out. freewe(b)novel.com

As soon as she started losing consciousness from the power of the mist, she screamed and let go of the energy ball. It went off with a bang, spreading in all directions and causing a small tremble in the coliseum.?Black Dalia was flung away, she hit her back against the shields and fell down on the ground, passing out.

In stunned silence, one the judges declared Scarlet the winner and Black Dalia was carried away by her friends to the hall of guardian reapers.

"What the hell was that?"

"What did she do?"

Questioning voices surrounded Scarlet, all of them curious about what had just occurred. But the loudest voice of them all was Severus's, telling her that she had done a good job.?Finally, she allowed herself to pass out, she was feeling drained, completely out of energy.

"Send her to my palace." Lythia spoke in Severus mind and he carried her away in his mouth, with his big sharp teeth.

Away from the crowd, a reaper was sitting atop a very large black hell hound with a gold star on it's forehead and eyes the color of flames. The reaper had long red hair and he was wielding a scythe that had a few cracks in a few spots. It had been mended many times than could be counted.

"Your son found an interesting companion Argos, in a few millennia we might be facing them in a small world."

The hound sneered and responded, "Why wait a millennia, I have others keeping an eye on my son. As soon as his reaper is invited to a small world, we can pay them a visit, maybe show them how it's done. I don't mind leaving a few scars on Severus's skin, he is one of my children that has always opposed my way."

"Aww, and here I was thinking that you were becoming sentimental Argos." The reaper laughed. "I would not underestimate them though, the girl herself is quite something...she has to managed to catch the eye of three deities. Maybe this underworld will finally become interesting after all, we have all been too bored."

"It has been noisy ever since she arrived, interesting can also spell disaster." Argos was of the opposite opinion.

"Not disaster Argos but change, the higher level reapers have been becoming too arrogant lately. She will teach them a good lesson." He laughed and rode off with his hound, unseen by all the reapers. If they had seen him, their would be commotion because he was a celebrity in this world, the reaper all reapers wanted to be.

Scarlet woke up at around three o'clock with a small body snuggled against her. The smell of sweets told her that it was probably Justin, snuggled in her bed and eating something sweet and sticky.?As she stretched, the hunger made itself prominent by the rumbling of her stomach.

She opened her eyes and yawned, pulling Justin closer.

"Mummy, you are finally awake." he said excitedly.

"Mmm" she mumbled.?"When did you get here?"

"Two hours ago, look at my report card mummy I was the best in class." he shook her body insistently, showing her the palm sized computer tablet in his hands.

She sat up and yawned, throwing her hands high in the air. "Is this the report?"

"Yes, teacher Penny told father that I would have been number one if I did not spell some words wrong in my language test. She said that you should help me with my reading during the holidays so that I don't fall behind."

"Congratulations on coming third my son." she pulled him closer for a big hug. "How did I end up becoming the mother of the cleverest little boy in the world?"

Justin giggled and she started tickling him for a bit. He hid in the blankets and she sought him out with her hands. "Where are you going? Come back here."

"Noooo," he laughed.

"I was going to bake a cake to celebrate you coming third in class if you allowed me to tickle you..."

Justin popped his head up from under the blankets like a small ground hog. "I am here mummy you can tickle a little bit."

He extended his tummy to her and closed his eyes like a willing sacrificial lamb.

"Really," Scarlet laughed, finding her son's behavior utterly ridiculous but also adorable. "Here I come."

Justin opened his eyes, squealed and went back into the blankets.

"Come on my little ground hog, let's go and bake that cake after all. Mummy is so proud of you."
