Chapter 50 Exercising Together



He roused himself and left his space ship without alerting the others. He along with Markay and the others that came along with him were sleeping in the space ship because there was no housing on the Blue star. 

"Good morning general." the Artificial intelligence of the space ship greeted him. 

"Good morning Jovi." 

"Should I ready the engines for departure?" Jovi the AI asked. 

"No." he responded. 

He stepped out and stretched his arms. The harsh cold early morning wind in the air did not faze him in the slightest. His eyes were focused in the direction of the footsteps and he raced over there with the speed of a cheetah chasing prey. 

In the forest, the person that was running was none other Scarlet. She had no intentions of furthering into the deeper areas of the forest because she was simply exercising. If she found something useful along the way during her run, good for her. 

She did not even realize that in the dark, there was a ring of gold around pupils of her eyes. All she knew was that as a grim reaper, she could see clearly in the dark as she did in the day. 

As she run, she caught up on underworld knowledge from the teacher Severus. Scarlet felt like a student that had gone back to school. She had to study about life in the underworld and life in the interstellar. 

"So Ummu refers to a fight for freedom. Whoever loses the fight has to serve as a servant for the winner for a year or give half of their collected souls to them everyday five years." 

"Yes, you can see why I told you say no. Souls are the key to strength in the underworld realm, you need every soul you can get. You are weak, if you had said yes to the fight both of us would be in big trouble. I know that arrogant reaper Ulysses will not hesitate to challenge you again. You have to keep saying no no matter how many times he taunts you or hurts your pride. Until I say that you ready to face him, focus on your training." 

"Yes teacher." she replied. "Are you still not going to tell me about Lythia?"

"I told you all you need to know." Severus replied. 

"Yeah, yeah, she is the leader of the guardian reapers. They are the reapers that keep other reapers in line. In short, the internal affairs police officers of the underworld." 

"That\'s all you need to know." he answered.  "Although, guardian reapers do more than that. For example they are the little voice inside your head when you give up and try to end your life before your time is up. The deities do not like suicide, it\'s like a declaration that they created a defective person. They do not like that at all."

  "I thought it was guardian angels that do that." she responded. 

"You humans, everything is so black and white with you. It\'s all devils and angels, good vs evil. That\'s not the way things work. Technically, grim reapers are qualified to be called angels."

"Yeah, angels of death." she tried to make a joke out of it and expected Severus to laugh. He did not. 

"Someone is coming, it\'s your husband." he told her. 

Earlier on in the day, she had bought some five ordinary cats and three puppies from a reaper on the forum. Those few animals were in her soul gourd. 

She brought them out, squatted down and then pretended as if she had just discovered them. Then she started placing them in a storage pod, one at a time. When Esong found her, she was left with only three kittens on the ground. 

She spun around when she heard his light footsteps and faked a look of shock. With her hand over her heart, she gasped. 

"It\'s you." she yelped. "You scared me." she said. 

Esong was wearing an unreadable expression on his face. She did not know whether he had bought her little act or not. 

"What are you doing in these woods at this time? Do you know how dangerous it is out here?" he asked her. 

Her father said she was the last to rise from bed when the sun had come up. Why was she behaving contradictory to that information?

"Exercising and rescuing some pitiful animals." she replied. 

She held one kitten toward his face and it \'meowed\' so pitifully. 

He pulled his head back and avoided the kitten. "It\'s dark outside Scarlet, do you really think I will believe this wild tale you are spewing." 

"Why would I lie?" she asked.

"I don\'t know." he replied. "I also don\'t know why a lone weak woman would be running through a forest at this time of the morning." 

She placed the last kittens in the pod and stood up, then she smiled at him. "I am not alone, I have Severus with me." she pointed at the dog with was looking at both of them lazily. "I am going to continue my run, if you want you can join me or you can go back to bed." 

Without waiting for him to decide, she took off running through the woods. After running, her intention was to do some boxing before showering, having breakfast and going to work. 

Left behind like that, Esong gritted his teeth and followed her, matching her pace precisely. 

"You can run faster, I don\'t mind." she told him. 

He turned his nose up a her. "I am simply here in case you run into something dangerous. I cannot allow the mother of my son to get killed just because she is foolish."

She ignored his \'foolish\' comment and concentrated on pacing herself.  This body had never worked out for a single day and the pain in her calves was killing her. If she had not taken some crystal water before beginning the run she might have given up. 

"Keep going." Severus told her.
