"Let me tell you how all of this is going to go, Gram Gram. You're either going to relinquish all the power you have and go back into that prison cell of yours for the rest of eternity, or I will destroy your soul. I will not now, nor will I ever, let you out of this place. Furthermore, I will not accept the way that you have threatened my family and my friends. You will find only ruin for yourself if you dare to face me. That is more than a threat. More than a promise. And that is more than a fact. This is simply the only way that things can possibly end for you."

I was being a lot more confident than I had thought I was going to be when this whole process started. I don't know why, but I had thought that I was going to be a little more scared and nervous about all of this. That wasn't how it had happened though. That wasn't what I was feeling at this moment.

Right now, all I felt was a burning rage that I was going to use to end yet another member of my bloodline's reign of terror. I was going to turn that rage into a weapon and destroy Hekate once and for all. I may have given her an ultimatum, but I knew from the beginning that she was not going to choose anything that would be considered 'peaceful'. I knew that this was going to be a deadly fight from the very beginning.

"You dare to threaten me." She shook from the rage of my ultimatum. Yeah, I knew that was going to happen.

"I told you that it was more than a threat, Gram Gram. This is bigger than you think and I will not allow you to see the light of day. You will never beat me."

"FUCK YOU, TRINITY GRAY! FUCK YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! I WILL STEAL THAT SOUL OF YOURS AND DO AS I SAID! I WILL GET OUT OF HERE! UNFORTUNATELY, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE IT BECAUSE YOU WILL BE DEAD, BUT IT WILL HAPPEN!" I had to force myself not to move and cover my ears against her words. I needed to make sure that I didn't show that sort of weakness to her. If I did that, then I would just wind up losing right here and now.

"Prepare yourself, Gram Gram." I put myself into a fighting stance, sliding into it effortlessly and with a practiced sort of ease. It didn't escape my mind that this was going to be the first time that I actively started the fight. I had waited for everyone else to attack me or someone else that I cared about. This was the first time that I was going to attack someone first, or at least told them to get ready to fight first.

"I was born ready to fight a little bitch like you." Hekate mirrored my fighting stand, only she was much larger than I was and, therefore, took up a lot more space in the hall than I did.

"I will let that slide. Right now, I feel like a bitch that will do anything that I can to protect my family. I'm a Mama Bitch, and I will put my all into eliminating you, Gram Gram."

The talking was over. Like I had already planned, I was the first one to attack this time. I moved quickly to the side and caught a hold of Hekate's wrist as she brought her arm back to swing at me. I was moving at a speed that was fast; I was nearly invisible. I knew that this was the case because I had that same sensation that I had once before.

As I moved quickly, I spun Hekate's arm behind her back and kicked out at the back of her knee. The move caused Hekate to spin and flip in the air at the same time. In a very ungraceful and unladylike manner, she landed haphazardly on the floor of the hall.

While Hekate was momentarily distracted, I reached my hand into the air and called my sword to me. I felt the handle of it, all but invisible as it was concealed in between the folds of reality. With a quick tug and a gust of icy wind, I pulled the sword toward me from the plane of existence that held it while it was not being used.

The comforting feel of it and the familiar way that it looked caused a soothing, happy sort of feeling to flood within me. I was mostly just happy to see that it was in perfect condition right now. I had feared that it might have been destroyed forever after what had happened with the snake that I fought in the Hall of Purgatory. It was once again covered in all the shards of ice and looked lethally sharp and deathly cold.

By the time that the sword was properly in my hand, I could tell that Hekate was preparing to get up. She had rolled onto her knees and was pushing herself from the floor in a very tired and defeated manner. This was going a lot easier than I had thought that it would. If this kept up, I would end this fight in no time at all. All I would need to do would be to attack her a few more times and all would be done. Maybe I was hitting harder than I used to or maybe she was weakened by the fact that she had been in the Hall of Damnation for so long. Whichever it was though, I wasn't going to complain. I just wanted to make sure that I was able to destroy her. That was my goal here after all.

I didn't wait for Hekate to get up. I launched another attack almost immediately. I ran to her side and stuck my blade into the back of her shoulder, feeling it slide into the thick meat of her flesh. With a two handed grip on my sword, I lifted Hekate from the floor and flung my arms toward the wall next to her prison cell.

Hekate had stuck to the sword as I picked her up, but now her body went flying in the direction that I had aimed. She landed with a very satisfying thud and an audible grunt of pain.

"Ngh!" That sound was like music to my ears right now.

I knew that I was being a little too zealous. I knew that I was taking a little too much pride and pleasure in the moves and damage that I was inflicting upon that woman. I knew that all of that was true, but I wasn't really able to stop myself. I just knew that I needed to win. I needed to finish her off.

"Just give up, Hekate. There is no way that you are going to win. There is nothing that you can do to beat me. Just give up and make it easier on yourself. Make this easier on all of us."

That was when she started to laugh.
