Vanessa's warning sent a ringing sound through Scarlet's ears, although there was no explosion nearby. At that moment, she realized that they were truly trapped and had nowhere else to go. They were trapped and overpowered in terms of manpower and magic.
She let her mind go blank at the sound of her heavy breathing, as she tried to forget about the pain in both her arm and leg Artemis' arrows caused during their previous fight that she had barely walked out alive.
She had to think and fast before they were captured once again.
She then heard Desmond's voice and she was instantly brought back to reality.
"Scarlet!"
"Yes?" she muttered, facing him with a wry look in her eyes.
Desmond was mildly concerned about her situation because she had spaced out and now she was daydreaming. Was it because she had lost a lot of blood?
"Are you okay?" he asked, looking directly into her brown eyes.
