"... I'll tell you more about the other reapers."
Scarlet perked up a bit. "Of course, I want to fucking know!" Satan turned away from her, his hands out as he walked away slightly. "Well, since you asked so nicely! So, other than you, there are three." He held up three fingers to her.
"You must have run into Brook earlier... If you're talking about the one who wasn't marked as a sinner." "Yes, the one that looks like a rabbit! Why the hell couldn't I see his sinners mark?!" "Why would you see a sinners mark?" He shrugged. "He doesn't have one."
"What? How is that fucking possible?! He's a grim reaper!" "... And? Are you really so simple-minded, Scarlet? Becoming a grim reaper requires exceptional circumstances. A non-sinner becoming one shouldn't be out of the question. We all have our little deals." Scarlet glared at him.
"So the reason he can control his demon so well, is because he's not a sinner?" "N-o-p-e! He has his demon in a complete chokehold. He's been a reaper for a long time." He put a hand on his hip. "You're a brand new reaper. You'll be able to kill humans without issue... But with your pathetic control over your demon, any of the reapers could wipe the floor with you. Brook is one of the newer of the three. I'm still so surprised he attacked you so aggressively, but he's always had his own strange set of rules for himself. Just count your blessings you have got on the bad side of the oldest reaper. Thankfully, he's far more predictable than Brook, so I don't see him attacking you unless you get in his way. The other reaper came just barely after Brook, but they are far more... Trained, I should say, than him. Better weapons, better flexibility. They won't attack you unless you get in their way, so I don't see it happening anytime soon. You have a long way to go before you can stand toe-to-toe with any of them. What a pickle you've gotten yourself into." "I pickle YOU'VE gotten me into." Scarlet corrected.
"....I got you out of the ninth circle in exchange for this job. Every mess you get yourself into is a fault of your actions in life that gave you that sinners mark, and the echoes of your past that catch up to you. And, you know, you can't hide here forever. You'll have to go back to the waking world eventually." Scarlet's mind wandered, then halted.
'...Chase! Wait... Will I even be able to save him? I don't stand a chance against Brook... If I run into him again, I won't have any backup plans. But, the Red Spades have Chase. My best lead on figuring out who I was when I was alive.' Her mind went to when he told her about his ex. 'And... I'd feel bad for leaving him thereafter he trusted me with his past!'
"Satan, I've been suspicious of this for a while, but... Does time move differently in Hell than the waking world?" "Yes, time moves slower in the waking world while you are in hell." "...and I assume that I can't die in Hell, since I'm just a soul..." "... Yes, that is also true, otherwise it would be a little difficult to torment souls for all eternity. What's with the barrage of questions-"
Scarlet formed her weapon and charged at Satan. She tried to slice through him, but he stepped to the side slightly and she missed completely, falling over. "...What are you doing?" She sighed. "Fight me."
"Ohhh, what's this all of a sudden?" He was amused at her outburst. "I'm weak. You've told me that much. I don't have much control over my demon, and I'm a brand new reaper. So I need to start getting better, right fucking now!" She formed her weapon again, starting to charge at him. "The more difficult the enemy, the faster I'll improve. And I can't think of anyone stronger than the devil himself... Unless you're actually scared about fighting me." Satan smirked. "How interesting. Alright. I'll play with you for a bit." He snapped his fingers, the arrows appearing above him again."Please stop getting into fights, Scarlet. My arm can't take it." - Graveweaver

Hello readers. I have a small request to make. I want to do a special for every holiday, and sometimes bonus chapters, but I do need help with plots. Based on what you know now, what would be a good plot for literally any holidays of Brook and the reader (Deer)?
