"Oh Father tell me, we get what we deserve

Oh we get what we deserve

And way down we go

Way down we go

Say way down we go

Way down we g-" Cliona had been singing that the whole time they walked to Fraud's Field, Scarlet at first was annoyed of her singing but after listening to the words she couldn't help but chuckle and sing along. What Cliona sang is what Scarlet was going to give.

Revenge, Justice and hatred just like Cliona had provoked onto her this day years ago. When she fell for Cliona's tricks.

Now that Scarlet thinks back to those days she couldn't help but notice the flaws in Cliona. The private call she took, the many times she'd step out and the times she'd answer the door and block her eyes vision. Scarlet scolded herself for being stupid. All of those times Cliona bragged about her food and the rules she set about anyone touching the flour, sugar, tea bags and any other packaged food that didn't need freezing. It was all toxic, poisoned.

"You let your feet run wild

Time has come as we all oh, go down

Yeah but for the fall oh, my

Do you dare to look him right in the eyes?

'Cause they will run you down, down til the dark" Cliona stopped singing and looked over to Scarlet with a bright smile "those monsters will get what they deserve for killing my husband, your father" taking Scarlets hand they entered the field.

Xavier's men had yet to get there bit she could smell his scent getting closer and their bond growing firmer. Through this whole mess Scarlet had yet to mate Xavier, tell him she loves him an try to start a family. It was her fault and she knew it but she still wanted Xavier to know.

She had a plan, something to give back to the pack. Scarlet didn't caught them as her pack, she had killed to many without anyone noticing and she planned to kill the rest but she was under the influence of Cliona. Although she had no choice, she could have tried harder but she wanted to save her friends.

Reaching behind her Scarlet ran her hand over the dagger and bottle she snuck in her satchel. Inside the satchel sat more books and potions Cliona hopped to use. She wanted to start the ritual early, instead of the full moon she'd have to deal with a half moon that finally started to glow from the suns rays.

Xavier's men made it to the field, each of them filing in like a pile of ants trying to show their worth for their queen.

The sea parted for Xavier and Rakesh to pass through. "Rushika?" Scarlet questioned, she knew Rushika would be there but she hadn't expected her to be with Xavier. Rushika known for knowing when things happened and where but as much as she tried to change the future, it always tricked her. Scarlet thought Rushika would hide in the shadows and watch from afar but since she was here it meant she needed to be here.

Taking a step towards Rushika, Cliona's grip tightened. "No" Scarlet stepped back.

Watching Scarlet from afar Rushika held out her hand "come to me Scarlet, don't you remember what you promised me?" scarlet avoided Rushika's eyes "I promised you nothing" she lied.

Rushika shook her head. "You promised we'd be a family, that I'd have a better life, one that a child should normally have" tightening her grip on Xavier's hand Scarlets eyes flickered to the two. She almost brought into a smile but instead her eyes widened. "Xavier excepted me, why can't you?"

Looking at Xavier, Scarlet gave a sad smile and spotted Ashley behind him shaking. "I'm so sorry Xavier, I should have never choose Samuel and I should have been the packs Luna as I was meant to be. I'm such a stupid wolf but I was dealing with shit at the time and I was still a teen"

Cliona snapped "enough of your silly games Rakesh, come here or we'll start without you. You know how painful the transition is" Rushika shook her head, with a huff Cliona turned to Scarlet. As if knowing what Cliona wanted Scarlet clapped her hands and a barrier of ice appeared on the ground. She lifted her hands enough to make a wal before dropping her hands. The ice was thick enough for them to not be able to break past but clear enough for them to see what was happening.

Scarlet grabbed the potion she made and drank it greedily while Cliona was detracted. A low hum brought had her eyes shining a bright blue before it died down, Scarlet grabbed the knife and just as she was about to strick Cliona. Cliona grabbed Scarlets wrist and held another similar knife to Scarlet stomach.

It dug deep into her guts puncturing her lung, they filled with blood instantly and she started to choke. "You thought I was that stupid? You thought I couldn't hear your little talk with Ashley or that I didn't follow you to the herbs room?" Cliona chuckled "I want my revenge and I will get it" letting go of Scarlet, Cliona turned back to her books.

"You may be my da-" Scarlet stabbed her right through the heart, through and through. Cliona looked down at the blood coated knife sticking out of her check with an opened mouth. "W-what?"

"I might die but I'm not leaving this world without dragging you down with me, bitch" pulling the knife from her chest Scarlet plunged it deeper, this time puncturing her lung like Cliona did to her. "I'll see you in hell" Scarlet let go spitting out chucks of blood before she fell to the ground.

Xavier growled pushing back his team and rounded the block of ice, catching Scarlet just as she hit the ground.

Scarlet looked up at him through dropping eyes and smile. She reached out to caress his cheeks "you deserve so much more than my fucked up self. I'm so sorry" her eyes closed.

"SOMEONE CALL THE FUCKING DOCTOR!"
