Reborn In DC

Chapter 18 - Scarlett (Part 3)

"This is the danger room" Marcus announced as the doors slid open.

"That's it," Scarlett says as she looks around. the danger room was square with metallic walls.

"haha, when you see it like that, it is not impressive but when it is activated you will have different thoughts. Lucy, you will be in charge of her training"

"Okay"

Hearing this Scarlett look at Lucy skeptically. Why? because she mainly sees Lucy as a robot.

"Oh, also go in the locker room to change Lucy will give you your uniform."

======

A few minutes later they were standing next to each other in the danger room. Lucy dresses in a secretary uniform while Scarlett was dressed in a skintight purple suit with Lucy standing across her.

" Are you guys ready? " Marcus asked, his voice resounding in the intercoms.

Lucy responds by announcing that the will start by testing her speed first.

"wow," Scarlett cries out with shock express all over her face but without caring about her emotion Lucy orders her to start running.

After half an hour, Marcus was surprised by the result. Scarlett had managed to run as fast as 500mph. Next, they tested her strength, she managed to lift more than 75 tones. Seeing those results They Continue to test her reaction speed, stamina, heat level and most importantly her healing factor, which was Lucy cutting Scarlett right arm off causing a huge explosion. Scarlett was mad but surprisingly her harm grows back in a few seconds.

Seeing this Lucy declares that she wanted to test her further and try to decapitate her, this scares Scarlett shitless, causing her to fight with Lucy not wanting to have her head cut off. When he saw that from the commanded room of the danger room. Marcus took a bowl of popcorn out his pocket dimension and watch the fight. Marcus could have stopped but he didn't want to for a few reasons, one of them was also to test her healing factor since the serum was working better than expected.

After the previous testing, Scarlett was a little familiar with her power. At first, she uses all the skills she could think of to attack Lucy in self-defense but Lucy wasn't a pushover, she evades Scarlett every hit while retaliating with fatal blows. Even though Scarlett had a healing factor she still felt pain. She could feel the pain when Lucy uses a pair blade to pierce her ċhėst and thɨġh. All of it hurt, seeing that she couldn't win she decided to escape.

Seeing this Marcus had an idea, after presses a few buŧŧons on the panel, the environment the danger room suddenly change, it changes into the city of Metropolis. After making this change he adjust himself on his sit, eating looking to how the fight will proceed.

[Lucy do you want to make a bet.]

Lucy who was in the process of tracking-down Scarlett, when she receives this message from Marcus

[What do you want to bet?]

[If she manages to defeat you, you will have to dress as a maid for an undefined amount of time.]

[And if she doesn't?]

[You can get anything]

[Even if I want to create my own organization?]

[wow, where did that idea came from?why?]

"you said anything!"

[Ok.]

[Just like that ?]

[ Even if you didn't ask me I would I have let you do it,]

[So can I..]

[No, know you have to win this fight.]

After making the bet Lucy became more motivated. What Lucy didn't know was that Marcus also made a bet with Scarlett.

==========

A few moments ago while she was escaping through the city she found a dark alley and hid. Just when she was about to relax, she heard a voice in her head, surprise it causing her to let out a small scream.

[Relax, it's just me]

[Marcus... do you know telepathy?]

[No, not really. You remember that Lucy injects you with something, those were nanorobots and right now I am using them to communicate with you.]

[Is that the only thing it can do?]

[No.]

Immediately a screen appeared in front of Scarlett.

[This is just one of its basic functions...OH SHIT!!]

[Don't stand There start running Lucy his moving toward you

[Can you tell her to stop.]

[Damn it, duck!]

When Scarlett heard is words she did immediately react but surprisingly her body move on is own. Ducking and evading the repulsor blast that Lucy had fired at her. Looking up she could see Lucy standing on top of the building, ready to fire at her again.

Immediately, she ran out of the alleyway at full speed escaping again. A few blocks away, on one of the skyscraper floors, Lucy set down.

[Ok, what do I do know and why is she hunting me down?]

[We had a bet] After seeing that Marcus proceeded to give Scarlett information about him and Lucy bet.

[You- you dare bet on my life!]

[ I am helping out I'm my not]

[Not really, she didn't say that I couldn't help you out.]

[You think I can win against her, she almost blow my fuċkɨnġ head off.]

[Haha, today is your lucky day. she is using one of her weakest bodies plus she is mostly made of metal and with your power, you can definitely melt her.]

[Your ruthless]

[Not really]

[So what do I get if a win.]

[I will give one of her as a bodyguard]

[i don't want that]

[So what do you want]

[hmm, sure] Marcus decided to accept since even if she knew everything and decided to betray him, with a thought he could have killed her.

[So what do I do?]

[You have some advantage, you have speed and element advantage so all you have to do is get close to her and melt her]

[Is it that easy.]

[No, a soon as you get in her firing rage if you don't watch out you will have your head blow up but don't worry it can grow back. Probably?]

[Probably!!]

[I'm just joking... hmm, she already catch up to you.]

[Already, what do I do]

[Activate your power]

[How?]

[Like that] Immediately her head got to blow up splattering blood everywhere and her body fell limply on the ground.

[hmm great shot] Marcus said to Lucy

[so I won?]

[For that you should have knock her out,]

[Why?]

[Haha you are going to see in 5, 4]

[Why are counting down?]

[Because of this and 1]

immediately Scarlett's entire body went in flame.

Lucy who was standing on top of the building across the one Scarlett was in. she was using her advance eyesight looking at Scarlett's body. shockingly her head was actually growing back. In the spend off a few seconds, she had her head back but looking at her you could see that she was mad, her hair was on fire the temperature around her was so high that everything at close proximity to her was melting.

[That was fun] Marcus said to Scarlett

[Shut up] Scarlett yield angrily.

[haha]

[Stop laughing, you could have warned me.]

[Don't worry about it. Now with your powers fully active, you can..oh run]

knowing what had happened before Scarlett didn't hesitate and started running. Immediately after everything started exploding with Scarlett firing missiles at the building

With her super-speed, she manages to live the building jumping out of the window and landing on the street. Looking at the building, she could see it coming down in flames.

Looking at the origin of the missile with her super-sense she could see Lucy standing on top of a building with a sniper pointed directly at her.

Moving at such a speed even living afterimage she manages to get out of the way of the laser beam.

Using all her strength, Scarlett jumps up making foot-hole by melting the place her feet touch. she runs across the side of the building. In the spends of a few seconds, she was already on top of the building and immediately got hit by a huge blast throwing her off the building.

she draws a beautiful arc in the air and landed heavily on the ground forming a small crater.

[...]

[You could have waited for her to get up there]

[This is a fight, not a game]

[For you]

[...]

The place where Scarlett landed slowly started melting. Scarlett got up and looked directly at Lucy with a fierce look in her eyes and she disappears.

Lucy didn't even hesitate as she jumps off the building breaking the window of the building across. Looking back at the place she was, you could see Scarlett with fire surrounding her with a hand piercing the group were she us to stand up.

"This is going to be a long fight."

[Yeah]
