The Eve of Rebirth (Samira and Semerket)

[Naru_Uchiha007]

Though it had not come across as such at the meeting, Serapis' words to her had been rather stern in regards to the recruit she spoke of... and Samira was not about to disappoint the eldest or their clan by failing to turn her to the darkness that would so openly welcome her.

As the cool night air blew lightly through her hair, those golden eyes seemed incapable of blinking, their gaze turned in direction she had left the meanki to slumber. She knew that she would come to her this night, come to the Serpent's Coil in search of answers, her clawed fingers lightly scratching the scales of the large asp that laid draped across her shoulders.

"Sshe will come Apophisss.... I have given her reasson to sseek uss out thisss night." She seemed rather confident when stating so to her 'better' half, the snake's tongue flicking wildly at the night air. He was growing impatient it would seem, coils seeming to tense lightly before finally settling as those claws scratched him gently beneath the his chin.

"Sssuch a prompt and timely creature you are proving yoursself to be..." A feminine voice hissed at Semerket from within the darkest shadows of the club, a pair of glden eyes focusing their attention upon the meanki as the Elder slipped into the pale moonlight, her lips seeming to don a smirk.

"And I can only asssume that you are seeking ansswersss to that, mmm?"A clawed finger gestured itself toward the piece of parchment the meanki gripped, that smirk never seeming to fade from those painted lips. "Or am I misstaken and are you here to try and avenge yoursself for what happened earlier?" A finger came to rest on her chin, giving it a thoughtful tap, Apophis once more growing restless upon the Elder's shoulder, gaze focused on Semerket.

"Ssettle yoursself Apophisss... Mommy is conducting bussinessss." She hissed at the snake, giving it another soft scratch under the chin, the smirk she held finally fading as a sternness crossed her face. Quite a change in the mood, to say the least, her tail flicking anxiously behind her. "Well, which isss it child?"  

[Naru_Uchiha007]

"You're not asss foolisssh asss you appear... Serapisss will be glad to know thisss fact." The Elder hissed, right arm growing erect at her side, the large asp slithering free of her shoulder before hitting the ground by her feet, its body following the motions of her feet as she approached the meanki.

"Why have you been sssummon? Well, child..." Samira let three fingers trace the faint scratches that appeared upon her cheek, the wounds not as noticeable as before. "You attempt to take me off guard and then damage my face... for that, I ssshould jusst kill you where you sstand!" There was a sternness to her voice, feet bringing her to stalk slowly around Semerket.

Of course, that sternness is soon replaced by a smirk, her form moving with the same serpentine agility as it had during their fight early, mouth close to the meanki's ear while arms came to embrace her mockingly. "Fortunately for you, no mortal hass been capable of doing ssuch a thing... which makess me think you are 'desstined' for ssomething greater." The word destiny was used in a rather loosely, to say the least...  

[Naru_Uchiha007]

Samira fond her brow arching itself in light curiosity at the response given to those chosen words. She was definitely intrigued by the mentioning of the sands, that tail of her's giving itself a leisurely flick behind her. "That black sssanddss, mmm?" The Elder seemed to query, her hand lifting itself to allow the tips of those claws to slide slowly down and along the meanki's cheek.

There was a vague possibility that Samira interpreted Semerket's words, but that was not the matter at hand. "Asss for joining uss... that iss exactly what you were ssummoned here for, child." Her hand withdraw itself from her cheek quickly, that form moving swiftly in front of the meanki, golden eyes locking with her own.

She would wait for the meanki's protest before she continued on...  

[Naru_Uchiha007]

"You sscratched my face, child!" Samira hissed, still a little nerved at the fact a mortal was capable of inflicting such harm to her. "Taking thiss into conssideration, I cannot merely allow ssomeone like you to be culled into joining the rankss of another clan." The Elder was firm as she addressed the meanki, arms coming to cross over her chest.

A perking of the brow was given once more as the silence was broken over the meanki, Samira's right ear giving a slight flick as the words touched it. "You dessire to know the truth behind the clan, mmm?" She had a feeling that things would play themselves in this direction, any deceptions the meanki tried to feed her being seen through the moment she spoke. "We are the keeperss of the mosst forbidden knowledge amongsst the Vampire clanss of thiss realm..."

She could speak more of the clan than that, but she was a mere mortal right now... and a mortal should not know everything of the clan until they found themselves resting within the ranks.

Samira felt herself wanting to hiss as that paw found itself touching against the scratches upon her face, but something held her back from doing so, those golden eyes seeming to glow more as they stared back into Semerket's own. "Do not think of it ssso much asss a debt, child... think of it asss an opportunity."

"And the darknesss awaitss you with open armss..." The Elder remarked before feeling that paw pull itself away. There was something about this meanki that sat right with her, but she couldn't begin to put a finger on it... at least, not yet. "You might not be a creature of honor, but you will be faithful to our coven... leassst you want to be dealt a sswift death." She wasn't issuing a threat to her in the least bit, the tone almost suggesting it, but the manner conducting itself as a warning.

"Now, child.." A hand was extended toward Semerket, the Elder's eyes still staring deeply into her's. "Sshall we?"  

[Naru_Uchiha007]

Samira couldn't help but smirk herself, a part of her glad to see how accepting the girl was of the fate that had been written for her... the resentment in her tone being disregarded, it merely being chalked up to how the darkness had already corrupted her. "Then I believe that you will fit in jusst fine, child." She hissed rather softly, something rather out of the ordinary for her.

There was something about this girl that really spoke to the Elder, something that never really stood out with anyone she'd encountered during this life time, her ears listening intently to all that she had to say as the smirk continued to adorn those lips... her serpentine eyes continuing to stare deeply into Semerket's own. "Yess child... With your death, a new life will be awaiting you amongsst the coven." Her voice didn't seem to hold the same sternness it had moments before, that hand eagerly taking hold of the paw so willingly offered up to her.

With a gentle tug, Semerket soon found herself being lead into the club, those glowing eyes which had captured her attention earlier seeming as if they'd been watching them throughout the course of the 'interview'... the club's interior probably not being that which she had expected, the walls and corridors adorned with 'decorations' that seemed fitting of such a clan of vampires. Of course, she had not been brought her to admire any of this, the Elder slowly leading her down one of the hallways...

Samira could feel the anticipation and nervousness pulsing through the meanki's blood as she held firm to that hand, her back being turned on the girl allowing for a smirk to steadily creep across those lips once more, a devious gleam flashing within those golden eyes. "There'ss no reasson to feel nervouss, child... You are in capable handss." She tried to reassure Semerket, that smirk still curling her lips.

Soon, the two of themselves were entering a room in the further-est reaches of the hallway... Semerket's hand being released rather quickly, Samira shutting the heavy doors behind them. "Now child, before begin, I musst know your name..." The Elder inquired, spinning on the ball of her foot, eyes focusing upon her. She probably should have inquired this before leading her inside, but the thought had slipped her mind till now...

And as for the snake that had been tailing them? Apophis found himself slithering quickly along the floor, his form coiling itself tightly beneath a golden ottoman. Did she honestly just lead her back to her own personal quaters?
