[Evil Tink]

Serus was silent for a moment while she thought, "I do, but it'd probably be quicker to just lead you there. Follow me~" With that, she was off, taking him quickly through town to the exact spot they crashed into each other.

She held out her arms, displaying the location, "Here we are. Right where we met." She hummed a bit as she beat the dirt from her hat before placing it on her head. After a few moments of fiddling with it to get it in the right spot, she tied the ribbon then clasped her hands behind her back.

[Bovice]

Before he knew what was happening he was being dragged through town. Within moments he was in the exact spot where they first met. "Well I guess you do remember." He said with a smile. "She is kinda cute, and she is powerful" he thought. "Do you wanna get a drink after my meeting or do you wanna come with me? He asked with a shy smile.

[Evil Tink]

Serus whirled around, tilting her head to the side, her pale bangs covering her eyes. "I would be honored to drop in on your meeting. I've been meaning to get around to the lesser known covens for awhile now." She quickly pulled out her watch, flipping it open to check the time before shutting it and replacing it in her pocket.

She quickly ran her fingers through her hair, straightening it out a bit, but keeping her classic partly messy look. She smoothed out her dress, fixed the many ties and ribbons, fluffed up the rose on her hat, and finally fluffed up her skirt. She had to keep up a certain expectation of perfection after all.

[Bovice]

"Why did she look cute cleaning herself up a little?" He wondered to himself. "Well shall we be on our way milady?" He asked as he held out his arm.

[Evil Tink]

Serus smiled grabbing onto his arm, "We shall. And please stop calling me that, I feel old enough as it is." She laughed softly, waiting for him to lead the way. "You know what I mean?"

[Bovice]

"Ok I will stop, but you don't look old Serus." He said sweetly. They went on their way. "I wonder how old she is." he pondered as they walked past a little tea shop. "I might wanna tell you now that our clan leader can be an ass, so he might be mad at you." He said nervously.

They walked for a short distance, and finally made it to the clan household. He did the secret knock, and the door swung open and he was greeted by the butler. "Hello Master Seth." The Butler said with a smile. "Hello Felix, and how are you today?" He asked nicely.

"I am good sir, and who might this young lady be?" Felix asked politely. "This is Serus the leader of the Antinori clan." Seth said with a smirk. "I see sir, it is a pleasure to meet you milady." Felix said extending his hand to shake hers.

[Evil Tink]

Serus laughed, "I don't care, he would never dare be blunt about it." She gave him a wink and followed alongside him humming softly, closing her eyes as they walked.

When they entered the Home, she opened her eyes. She briefly let go of Seth, giving a slight curtsy to the butler before taking his arm again and shaking the butler's hand with her free hand. "A pleasure indeed, Felix. I don't mean to sound rude, but be sure to emphasize to your Master of who I am. I would not want something to occur because of his..ignorance." She gave the butler a sweet smile as she spoke, but her tone hinted of possible threats.

[Bovice]

"I will milady." Felix said with a bow and started to walk away. As Felix walked away "You are really good at making idol threats." Seth said with a chuckle. "Just to let you know the masters name is Cecil." He said rolling his eyes. "I just wish he would die already." Seth pondered while waiting for Felix to come back.

"Master Cecil is ready for you Master Seth and milady." Felix said with his had stretched out. "Are you ready Serus?" Seth asked quizzically.

[Evil Tink]

Serus stood on her toes, whispering in his ear, "I'm also good at carrying them out." She gave him a wink, almost like she know what he was thinking. When Felix came back, she went flat on her feet, nodding to Seth, "Indeed I am. Lead the way, Sir."

[Bovice]

Seth smiled and started to lead the way "You can call me Seth." He said nicely. They walked down a long hallway, and finally reached the council meeting room. When Felix opened the door he let Serus go first. As she entered he put his arm around her waist.

"Hello master." Seth said with a slight bow. "Hello young Seth." Cecil said in a deep voice. "Master as Felix has already told you this is Serus the leader of the Antinori clan." Seth said with a smile. When he said that everyone in the room looked a little shocked.

"Why have you brought her here Seth are you trying to let them take control" Cecil asked with anger. "No master I just thought..." Before Seth could finish Cecil cut him off. "I told you not to think, you just opened up our clan to someone who can destroy us easily." Cecil yelled.

"No master I will be taking over soon and I need to make decisions, and I think opening us up to the Antinori clan could be a good thing." Seth said as every one looked at him shocked.

[Evil Tink]

Serus smiled a bit as his arm went around her waist. So he was capable of being a gentleman. She placed her one arm around his waist as well, listening as the two bickered with a frown. I can see why he doesn't like him.

She stepped forward, holding up her hands slightly, "Master Cecil, you have no need to worry. I have been meaning to speak with you for quite some time." She gave a slight bow to him, placing her hands in her pockets. "I know I have a bit of a...reputation among the smaller Covens, but I honestly came to just...talk. I'm not here to take your clan from you." The way she spoke her last sentence implied that she was insulted he would even think such a thing.

True, she was known for taking over the other clans and eliminating weaker vampires, but she would never take take the Augustins. They were a strong clan, even if they were smaller. Either way, they just weren't what she was looking for for her coven, but as an ally, perhaps.

[Bovice]

"That's what they all say before they attack." Cecil said standing up. "Master you cannot talk to her that way." Seth said stepping forward. "How dare you defend that deceiving woman." Cecil said pounding his hands on the table. "How dare you insult her master?" Seth asked angrily. "How dare you disrespect me Seth you are my finest student?" Cecil asked trying to calm down.

"You want to know why master? Its because you talk down to everyone and treat us like your servants." He said getting madder. While he was waiting for Cecil to answer he looked over at Serus and looked at her aura, it was a light blue meaning she was being honest. "Master how can you call her deceiving I just read her aura and its a light blue meaning shes telling the truth." Seth said puffing out his chest.

"Well Seth how would anyone else be able to see you are the only member who can see and read auras?" Cecil said calmly. "Are you saying that im lieing? How dare you accuse me of such things master?" Seth asked furious. "Well Seth I can tell you have affections for this woman so yes I think you are lieing your feelings have definitely clouded your judgment." Cecil said wondering what his response would be.

"You think my judgment is clouded master. Well how about this I challenge you to a duel master and whoever wins will be the leader of our clan." Seth said smugly. "He may well be over 600 years old but I can take him down." Seth pondered. "You dare challenge me Seth? You will know what it is like to die Seth I accept you challenge." Cecil said crssing his arms.

[Evil Tink]

Serus was silent through the whole thing, her hands migrating to be clasped behind her back while she listened. When she thought they were done, she leaned forward slightly, "If I may?"

She stepped away from Seth, approaching Cecil. Now he was quite a bit taller than her; with her being 5'4" and him being 6'2". She had to really crane her neck to look at his face. She tilted her head a bit, her gray eyes simply just staring at him. "You are an imbecile."

She rocked back and forth on her feet, looking off to the side, "I'm very insulted, you see. Do you know what happens to people when they insult me?" She looked back at him, her eyes narrowed. She took her slim, pale fingers and gently touched his forehead with her index finger. "Bad things happen Mr. Augustin. Very, very bad things."

[Bovice]

Seth was impressed at what Serus just did. "Felix!" Seth yelled.
"Yes master Seth?" Felix asked running up to Seth.
"I want you to run to my house and get my katana it should be in my dining room. Also get the arena set up." He said sternly.
"Yes sir." Felix said almost ready to leave when Seth grabbed him.
"Can you get me some blood as well I am going to need all strength I can get." Seth said whispering.

Felix nodded and ran off. "How dare you touch me you filthy woman?" Cecil asked with anger. Seth walked up to Serus and grabbed her arm gently. "We should go get ready." he whispered into her ear.

[Evil Tink]

Serus's mouth dropped in shock, "Excuse me!? Just who do you think you are? Just because you're only 100 years older than me, does not mean you can speak to me like that!" She crossed her arms, tempted to stomp her foot, but resisted the urge. She narrowed her eyes, "I can't even begin to think of how I'm going to punish you for your actions! Oooh you just..!"

She was about to hit him with her power, but Seth grabbed her arm. She let out an angry snort, swatting his hand until he let go, "Oh no, I will not tolerate such rude behavior! Tell me something Cecil...do you remember the Raksasha clan? No? Let me refresh your memory!"

She clenched her fists, her eyes narrowed to slits, "Each and every single member of that clan suffered a horrid death. Slowly, one by one, their bones were shattered to thousands of tiny pieces, their hearts exploded, their brains turned literally to liquid." She took a moment to let it sink in with the other council members; their shock filling the air. "And that's not all my dear Cecil. The pressure around their bodies became too great for them to handle, causing them to implode in this mushy, bloody mess. And would you like to know something else?"

She hopped up onto the table to be eye level with him, leaning forward so her face was only centimeters from his. A dark, sadistic grin came upon her face as she whispered, "And I did it...all by myself." Quiet gasps filled the room as the news was announcement. Serus had used her clans influence to 'rewrite' the story to make it seem it was her Council and her, not simply just her.

[Bovice]

Seth was kind of interested in what she just said. "Why am I turned on by what she just said? he thought. "How dare you rewrite history and then threaten me?" Cecil asked a little bit in shock.
"Cecil, this is between you and me and not her. I have been gunning for your spot for years and now I will take it." Seth said slightly irritated.
"How dare you disrespect me by not calling me master?" Cecil said as he looked at Seth.

"After today I will be your master, Cecil." Seth said with a smirk. He walked closer to the table and put his hand out to help Serus down off of the table.
"We should go get ready darling." He said sweetly to Serus while waiting for her to grab his hand.
