Hel was wondering if Gene would have kept going, even though her shield was down. Hel would have kept going. She didn't stop until she was either knocked out or flat out dissipated...but hey. Oh well. The reaper had won, and she had nothing further to gain from beating down Gene to unconsciousness or dissipation.
The reaper did reach down to grab Gene's wrist, and pulled the ghoul to her feet. She then clasped the ghoul on the shoulder, and grinned a bit. "You are a good ghoul, Gene." She patted her shoulder, and then let her go, and laced her hands behind her neck as she left the gym.
