Scarlet woke up from her trance. Another nightmare for Nava completed perfectly. A year ago Scarlet found out she could make others dream whatever she wanted them to dream. The only thing was that she had to be in the dream to make sure it stayed exactly how she wanted it to.

Scarlet smiled at the empty room. Tonight's dream was a success. She loved seeing the look on Nava's face right before killing her. She also loved watching her world crumble around her as that disgusting Isabella died and as Dustin fell to the floor, lifeless. Tonight's dream had literally shown her life crumbling at her feet. Scarlet could still hear Nava screaming Dustin's name as she fell down a deep hole jolting awake.

Scarlet stood up and brushed herself off. Only six more days and she could take her revenge on Isabella and Nava. Scarlet started walking to the hangar bay to double-check the preparations.

She bit back a smile and put on her most fearsome face as a group of new guys walked by all of them, ducking their heads to avoid her gaze. She loved to scare the new people.

Scarlet continued walking and felt a hand on her shoulder. Grabbing it, she flipped the owner of the hand over her shoulder and onto the floor. "Augh! Scarlet, you blasted idiot!" Yelled a familiar voice. She relaxed as she recognized her boyfriend Alex laying on the ground in front of her. Scarlet glared at him and continued walking, not bothering to help him up.

Alex jumped up and chased after Scarlet. "How's the plan for next week's weapons expo going?" he asked, either ignoring or not sensing her bad mood. "It's fine," she said dismissively. He smiled a wicked grin that Scarlet had grown to love. "Good, It's about time Isabella and Nava die. I can't wait to see you actually smile with pure joy," he said wrapping his arm around her waist.

Alex's phone dinged and he frowned as he pulled it out. "Well speak of the devil herself." he said Scarlet rolled her eyes. "I don't know how you can stand working for her." She said. Alex had started working for Isabella years ago and had become one of her most trusted security personnel. Alex frowned at his phone. "Interesting. I was just put on Navas security detail." Scarlet looked over at the text. "Darling you have no idea how hard it is for me to not ask you to kill her." Alex squoze her arm "I know but soon this will be over, they will be gone. I promise." he said "I can't wait until they are destroyed and I can take over." Scarlet said.

Scarlet smiled and leaned closer to him. Alex stepped in front of her, lifting her chin up. "Come on beautiful, let's go get some dinner and talk about your plans for Wolf Defences and Arms," he said, wrapping her in a hug. Scarlet pushed away and walked past him. "I'd love to, but I need some sleep," she said walking to her office. "By the way the first thing that we're changing is that awful name." She closed her door to the sound of Alex's laughter filling the hallway.

Scarlet sat down at her desk. For years she had wanted to take over Navas little business. She was a little nervous about weapon designs but they kept each design blueprint so she could modify those. Not to mention Isabella's fabled work room. Anyone who worked at Wolf Defences and Arms knew about that room. People had spent hours trying to find it. Isabella had kept all her blueprints and ideas. Some of the most powerful weapons ideas would be in that office.

For months Scarlet had tailed Isabella trying to find that office but she never could. Isabella always managed to slip away or catch Scarlet watching her. She had soon learned not to follow the most paranoid person on the planet.
