The person who was saying she 'got this' was neither in a cha nor wearing armor which made her loud declaration all the more ridiculous. Killing mutated beasts was the role of cha warriors, not civilians.
One cha warrior caught the white ape by the leg and threw it in the air. It must have weighed around six hundred pounds judging by its size but to the cha, it was as light as a tennis ball. In the air, more cha warriors attempted to shoot it with eager energy guns, which weakened it but the beast was not killed. In fact, it was enraged and it landed back on the ground, it pounced on the nearest cha warrior, banging the cha down with all of its might.
Guns had failed to work and so another cha warrior used a large hamr to beat the white ape. It yelled and tossed that cha away, more cha warriors in this section were arriving, all of them with the aim of killing the beast.
"I told you, aim for the eyes." Scarlet shouted. When she saw that no one was listening, she jumped over the circle of bodyguards and landed on the ground before they could notice what she was doing, she took off, running at a speed equally as fast as the white ape.
Above in the sky, a circling shoot to kill drone noticed Scarlet and imdiately sounded a siren, "Civilian approaching, warning, there is a civilian approaching the mutated beast."
"What is she doing, get her!!" Vangar yelled.
But how could a grim reaper be easily caught? And how could see escape the white ape's eye when she was a tiny thing which was not hiding inside one of these big chas. Such easy prey had delivered itself and the ape left behind the chas, choosing to go running towards Scarlet.
The situation seed to be a race against ti between Scarlet, the white ape, the cha warriors and her guards.
When Scarlet was within five feet of the ape, she hit it with soul energy, slowing it down and she shot six arrows all aid at its face. Four were distractions and only two were aid at the real thing. She continued sending out soul energy blasts that no one could see but her, ensuring that it would remain in a confused state and the arrows sunk into the white ape's eyes. They were extrely sharp and strong that they went through the ape, and fell in the snow.
Vangar ripped Scarlet off the ground, throwing her to Tion who rushed her into a cha that flew away before she could see whether the white ape had died or not. And she was extrely curious about this, twisting and turning around.
"Wait a minute." She argued. "I need to finish what I started." She said.
"Governor, please stay in one place, even if you were right about that beast did you stop to worry about the rest of your personal guards? You put their lives at risk with your sudden actions." Tion shouted at her in a way he had not done before. "What you did was reckless and extrely careless, and it will not happen again under my watch."
Stunned into silence for a few seconds, Scarlet looked behind at the rest of her personal guards. They wore nothing but armor and had that white ape aid for them and not her, it was possible that all or most of them would be dead. They looked brave on the outside but exuded a lot of fear. Considering the larger picture, perhaps she had been rush in her unnecessary actions. For all she knew, the cha warriors were going to pin it down and soone would gouge its eyes out or sothing else which would ensure its death.
"Sorry everyone, I should not have beco so excited." For a mont there, she had forgotten that she was not a soldier, a warrior or a reaper to them. All she represented was a civilian governor of this planet. "From now on, I will be more careful but I do not promise to intervene if the danger cos too close to the city. We can't just sit back and wait for the cha warriors to save us all the ti. If we know how to kill the mutated beast, then we kill it. But worry not for I will not be actively seeking out danger."
Tion sighed in relief and when the cha dropped them off at the governor's castle, he saw to it that she was safely locked away in her private quarters before he left.
"Wow, it's not like I am a prisoner, why does he want to lock in here?" she scoffed in much disbelief. He had not even let her ander away or visit her family mbers, insisting that she stay in her quarters.
"Governor," Anna called her hesitantly when she ca in.
"What is it?" Scarlet asked in response.
"Forr commander Tion has asked to tell you to stay in here for a few hours and reflect on your actions." Anna said the words between mumbles. She spoke as if her mouth was filled with food. Still, Scarlet caught all of her words clearly.
"Ho!!" she gasped, "Is he the boss or am I the boss here?"
"He is just doing his job like the rest of us here, ensuring that you are safe and secure in this winter season. The general will have all of our heads if he returns and finds you injured." Gertrude was quick to offer up that information.
She threw her body on a sofa and replied, "He will find withered at this rate. I can't sit around and do nothing but paperwork all winter, I will go insane." She would really lose her mind if all she did was sleep, do paperwork, fight in the virtual world and sleep again.
"The new episode of avatar is about to start, you love that show." Coral suggested. She even turned the television on because she knew how much Scarlet hated silence.
"Alert retrieved, it's safe to go outside again." A bold announcent in red passed by below on the television.
"See," she sat upright, "it's safe again, I can go out."
"Governor, maybe I can give you another massage, I have been practicing my skills lately. Maybe you should give your opinion." Gertrude could see that avatar would not work as a good distraction tonight. They needed another plan, one that would keep the governor indoors.
"It's too cold for a massage." Scarlet answered. She stood up, got a jar of Nutella from her pantry and a spoon.
"There is a new episode of love against the odds; it's all the maids can talk about in the castle. Yesterday the hunky Rafael stord Elisa's father's castle and stole her away in the night. When it ended, they were just about to take a bath together in the creek; he had taken off his shirt, exposing his...."
"Anna!!" Gertrude shouted.
"What?" Anna replied.
"She needs a cold bath." Scarlet chortled. "I think I should just do more live broadcasts, longer ones." She dipped the spoon in the jar and decided to watch avatar after all. Tomorrow she would do her first long live broad cast.
