The Scared Beauty and Her Determined Beasts

Ch.8

8

Scarlet couldn’t stop thinking about Alex being there. Making sure to go through her things carefully to make sure Alex didn’t mess with anything, while thinking about how her day had gone.

Starting with waking up feeling like death because of her lame period, it also felt like someone dropped her. Then a horrible headache came from that sorry excuse for a Chef.

Although it was fun to make the whole Village scared of her when she ripped out that Male's heart. Her good mood was squashed when making it out of the Village, because of that loud disgusting Female.

Having that good meal after thought was nice. It had been forever since she had shared a meal with someone, and Travis was fun to eat with. The event with the Cobra Alex inside the cave was not how she thought she would be ending the day.

Just what was it that the Elements were planning? The Elements of my World were not this interesting in interfering with my life. We did play some here and there on a harmonious level, but they never interfered in my life and never broke the seals that I made using my Energy.

The Elements here are Wild and Untamed than those back home. It took me a while to get familiar with them and develop an understanding of sorts, or so I thought. The Earth Element has now done Two things on its own Will in less than Twenty-four Hours.

To make things worse was that she couldn’t stop thinking about that Sweet Tiger Travis or the Enchanting Cobra Alex.

What was it with those Two Males that she couldn’t keep them from running through her mind? Travis can get close to her without being able to sense him, and Alex’s Energy is something incredible that she has never seen or felt before.

“What is wrong with me?!!” Scarlet yelled at herself. The look that he had when he promised to take care of her seemed genuine. There was also something in his eyes that she couldn’t pinpoint, but it drew her in completely, nonetheless.

It was similar yet completely different from the way Alex had looked at her. The intensity that he had in his eyes drew her deep into the pools of his Pale Cream Eyes. No One had ever had that look in their eyes while looking at her. The only time she saw anything similar was in the eyes of the Men that followed that Demon Woman.

Laying down after she thoroughly checked her stuff. Scarlet didn’t want to think about it anymore and wanted to just get through the next Three Days without anything else crazy happening.

Things were bad enough with Alex knowing where she was, not to mention she had a feeling that Travis may be lingering around too.

“Stop stop stop stop I can’t keep thinking about this. Sleep sleep sleep I need to sleep!!” Scarlet tried to force herself to put her mind to rest to get some sleep, but their faces just kept flashing in her mind and that made it hard to sleep.

Scarlet was tempted to take something to help her get to sleep, but she didn’t feel like she could trust the Elements to not pull another stunt like they did before.

With her presence being discovered by the locals, Scarlet was stuck in the cave for the next Three Days, so she tried to get some rest. That was easier said than done. Turns out being cooped up for so long really weighed Scarlet.

So, she tried to keep busy when she could move. Doing Yoga and make different medicines that she knew she would need on her travels. She even tried some new Ones to get her mind off Alex and Travis, all while wishing for sleep that would never come.

Scarlet found that it didn’t make much of a difference, and the only thing she managed to accomplish was make her body even more drained and her mind still on those Two Males.

The day finally arrived when Scarlet had done her time and was free to move on. The lack of rest left her completely exhausted from having to deal with her cycle and the side effects that go with it. Being trapped in that cave for all that time made moving in light a little difficult, but she still packed all that she would need on hand for her next migration.

Scarlet sent out Energy to scout the surrounding area before she made her move, but when she reached out, she was floored.

Alex was still in the West of here and way too close.

Travis was to the North, and not far off.

“Seriously?! I tell them off, and kick them out, yet they still come back. What is with these Strange Species?!” Scarlet couldn’t believe that they wouldn’t just leave, but she was also secretly happy that they were still around.

“I need to be smart, fast, and as sneaky as I can to get out of here.” Scarlet thought to herself as she decided to head East to the Sea to chase the Sun. “If only I could get into the air without being seen, it would be great, but that’s a wish upon a star.”

If it was just One of them, it would be easier, but having One on One side and the other on another made things difficult. With their keen sense of smell, they could pick up on her smell fast.

Going back into the cave and grabbing anything and everything that would hide her smell, she looked at everything carefully and selected the most natural smelling lotions and potions she had and covered herself from head to toe. After repacking everything, she started to make her way back to the entrance where she was once again met with disaster.

Alex and Travis were both out in front of the cave glaring at each other, and on guard to attack the other at a Seconds notice.

As Scarlet walked out, she acted like she didn’t see either of them and jumped into the Air using her Energy to keep pushing herself higher and higher. She looked like she was climbing up steps and hopped away like they were not even there.

Both Alex and Travis stood there so shocked they didn’t know what to do next. Neither One was expecting Their Female would be able to do something like that. They forgot about each other and ran after their Little Female. Watching her as she jumped and flew away from them.

When Scarlet noticed that they were still following her, she made a move for the Water. She jumped in and used her Energy to push herself through the Water to try and hide not only herself but her smell as well.

However, Scarlet’s little trick didn’t work.

Alex followed her into the Water. With him being a Snake, he could naturally move through the Water at a great speed, but Travis was naturally faster on land. Figuring that since the Snake was in the Water and following His Female. Then he would just follow him to get to her.

After a while, they both started to panic because Scarlet never came up for Air. Alex and Travis kept pursuing her because she could do things that a normal Female could not and believed that she would be okay. But that didn’t stop them from wanting to see her head pop up to know that she was really okay.

That was when they noticed it.

The Waterfall!!!

Scarlet was heading for the Waterfall and Travis was scared that she wouldn’t see it in time, so he started to yell at her, “There is a Waterfall up ahead Little Female! You need to stop and get out, or you will be killed when you go over the edge!!”

Travis’ yelling caused a big ruckus and some Males that were hunting in the area came running when they heard the words Little Female.

When they got to the River, they saw that there was a Cobra in the Water and thought that he was after the Female, and Travis was Her Male trying to get her back. So, they tried to help, half going after Scarlet and the other going after Alex, but they were both moving too fast for them to catch up.

In the end, they couldn’t catch up with either of them. As they got closer to the edge, they were all starting to worry until they saw Scarlet emerge from the crest of the Waterfall and shoot off into the Air, only to fly away.

Alex was so shocked that he forgot that he was still in Water that was about to turn into a very high fall. So, he used his strength and speed to get to the side Travis was at and stared in the direction that Scarlet flew off in.
