Chapter 19: Festivity ruined

The time rift opened as Scarlet was floating over a village, glancing down at it. This was an unfamiliar place she hadn't recognized, she knew it wasn't any village the Akatsuki talked about before she had killed them all. But something did catch her eye.

There were goblins, humans and other races walking around the village. She also noticed that they were setting up a festival, Scarlet snickered a bit as she went down and lands in one of the alley ways.

Shion had sensed Scarlet's aura as she noticed her walking out from an alley, she approached the Grimm girl as she held her sword over her shoulder. "You're new...I don't recall Rimuru mentioning you."

Scarlet ignored Shion as she paid the Oni no mind, she knew she was spotted by Shion but regardless didn't think other wise of her. Shion scoffed as she got in front of Scarlet as she glares at her.

"I was talking to you." Shion said.

Scarlet just glares at Shion as she went to walk past her, but Shion pushed her back. Finally, Scarlet acknowledged the Oni as she grabbed Shion's hand that she was pushed with. "Ara, I thought I was hearing things. But clearly I wasn't."

"Hey, let go." Shion said as she gripped the handle of her sword with her other hand ready to swing it at her.

Scarlet would take notice as she could tell others in the village were coming to see what was going on, though it didn't matter to her. She was going to have fun with them all, even if it meant blowing up half the village.

"What's going on here?" Rigurd asked as he walked over. "Someone giving you some trouble Shion?"

"Apparently, this girl just walks out of the alley way over there and doesn't bother listen to me, until now." Shion said. "She's got a tight grip on my hand as well."

Scarlet glanced over at the goblin as she noticed there were more villagers coming out. "Me troublesome? Kihihihi....ara ara, that's a new one." Clearly she was lying she was a lot of trouble for them, they just didn't know it yet. And with Rimuru not being there at the village, made her job a lot easier.

"Now hold on, let's not get into any trouble while the great lord Rimuru is gone." Rigurd said. "We're a peaceful village, as long as no harm is done here. Then you wouldn't be marked as an enemy, but we do have strong warriors that will put you in your place." He flexed his muscles as if he was showing off.

"Is that so?" Scarlet asked. "And who is this 'Rimuru'?" Even though she heard his name from Shion, she was a bit curious on who he was.

Rigurd grins widely, thinking Scarlet was interested in joining them in the festival for when Rimuru returns. "Oh, so you'd like to know who he is then? Well...uh for starts he's a slime."

Scarlet blinks confused as she had let go of Shion's hand. "....A slime?" She started to snicker and laugh as she shakes her head. "Go on, I'm listening."

Shion growled a little. "Are you mocking us? I'll send you flying if you're thinking of hurting him."

"Shion, please." Rigurd said as he glanced at her. "They wouldn't be any match for lord Rimuru, he'll have her sent flying into the air before she could lay a finger on him."

Scarlet listened to what they were saying, however. Things fell silent as Shion's ears perked up hearing grumbling coming from Scarlet's stomach, the Oni glances towards her as she grins. "You sound hungry...I can make you something to eat."

Shion was planning on grossing Scarlet out with her cooking, even though she thinks her food is the best. But she wanted to make sure that the food will make it to where Scarlet would never come back to the village. Scarlet was grabbed by the hand as Shion dragged her to a pot of bubbling purple stew, as it stunk of weird ingredients that was found. Scarlet plugs her nose as she was green in the face now, she watched as Shion grabbed a bowl and pours some of the purple stew into the bowl.

"Dig in, may it be your last meal." Shion said as the Oni giggled.

Scarlet looked at it as she growls, she took the bowl and pours it on Shion as she took the pot and spilled it. "You call this food? It's a abomination!" She grabbed Shion by the throat and slammed her down onto the table. "Perhaps I'll eat you instead."

~~~

Shion kicked Scarlet off of her as the Oni proved to be stronger than what Scarlet had given her credit for. Rigurd tried to help Shion, but Scarlet cut him off from them both as Scarlet gripped the ground as she stops herself.

Shion swung her sword at Scarlet, but had it blocked as Scarlet used Black Rose to block the attack. "You're not eating anyone."

Scarlet grins as she kicked Shion in the gut as she laughs. "Oh please, you're just an appetizer...you wouldn't even be worth satisfying my hunger." She walked towards the Oni as she lashed out at her, clawing at her face and arms. "I want to tenderize you first before I choose what to do."

Shion yelled in pain as her arms went limp as she drops her sword. "D-Damn it..."

Scarlet laughed more as she dashed towards Shion and grabs her face, she slams her though some walls as she then slammed her into the stage in the middle of town. Souei teleported in as he wrapped the Grimm girl up in sticky steel thread and pulled on them slicing into Scarlet's body.

"Die you monster." Souei said.

Scarlet bends backwards as she grins looking at Souei, she slithered out from the steel thread and gut punched him into the ground. "This world shall know fear and pain."

Shion coughed as she got up slowly, her arms were limp still as blood dripped from her mouth. "W-What the hell are you? How are you able to withstand our attacks?"

Scarlet slammed her foot on Shion knocking her back down, as she rubs her feel in Shion's gut. "I'd love to tell you, but I'm afraid death is the only answer. So unless you some how manage to get your precious slime to show up, all of you are my prisoners."

"Like hell we are." Benimaru said as he slashed Scarlet with his sword. "Black flame." A black flame spewed out of Scarlet as Benimaru grins. "You're going to be the one who feels pain."

Scarlet faked screaming as she then grins, she slurped up the Black flame as she snickered. "That's one spicy snack." She would then elbow Benimaru in the face making him bleed. "Now then..if you excuse me."

Scarlet was about to fly into the air, but Shion dashed up and sliced her in half with her horn. Scarlet's lower body fell off as her upper body floated here in the air, glancing at the Oni Scarlet's lower body jumped up and reattached to her.

Shion was startled as she gulps. "What the hell?"

"My turn ya bimbo." Scarlet said as she round house kicks Shion knocking her into the buildings. "Kihihihi...this is just too easy." Her eyes glowed as fire balls formed in her hands as she threw them around the village. "Burn in hell."

~~~

Scarlet watched as the villagers running and fleeing as she cackles, she glanced down at Shion. "Where is your mighty Rimuru at? So much for a hero! I decide who lives and who dies. No one here in this world can outmatch me."

As the village burned the smoke rose into the air, and within a blink of an eye a girl with pink hair had flew at Scarlet with high speed as she rammed her head into Scarlet's back knocking her back.

Scarlet growled as she spun in the air to see who hit her, she had noticed the girl as she tilts her head. "Who are you?"

"I'm Milim, a demon lord..and you've messed with the wrong people." Milim said as her smile turned into a frown. "You hurt my friends, and I'll make your life a living hell." Milim's appearance would change she had purple dragon wings and wore all black with purple armor. "I'll make you pay!"

Scarlet's eyes shrank as she laughed. "Now this is what I've been waiting for! Come on and face me, her body glowed as her Maiden power flowed from within. "A demon lord and a Grimm, this is what it should be!"

Milim was confused on what Scarlet meant by Grimm, but she shrugged. All she knew was Scarlet hurt her friends and she wanted revenge. "I don't care what you are, you're dead!"
