Zy appeared inside the meeting room of the Association, taking a seat in a black leather chair at the head of the room. He sat at the head of the room, chairs laid out in front of him for the members of the Association. Those chairs were empty for the moment. That would soon change.
He shut his eyes and said "Association members, come to Headquarters now. Our first meeting has begun."
Then, he waited. The members should begin to arrive, having heard his message sent to them telepathically. All of them would hear it, no matter where they were in the castle. And they would come. If they didn't, they would die.
While he waited, his eyes traveled around the room. The walls were lined with weapons and pictures. None of these weapons were to be used for fighting though. Those were stored separately. These were merely trophies, saved from Zy's various kills. His eyes fell upon the sword hanging above his head, blood still dried to the blade with a preserving spell. A smile tainted his lips at the memory, his first kill.

Carrie entered the room, greeting Zy with a nod of her head. Her eyes flicked over the room as she took a seat, resting her chin on the heel of her hand.
Adrienne followed Carrie in, and took an empty seat beside her. She looked about the room, her eyes looking the epitome of apathy.
Isabella entered the meeting room, her expensive silk shirt draping over her shoulders, and dropping to just below her hips. Her designer jeans clung tight to her thin, but well shaped legs, as she walked in and leaned against the wall.
"A meeting!" she began, her voice bright but accented by a sardonic air. "So much fun."
She smiled, cocking her head to one side, her eyes mocking. "Or boring. When are you going to send them into the field?"
Her eyes drifted up, seeing his most prized possession from that first kill. "I don't understand the preservation of the blood. Worst part of killing someone. It gets a little messy. Do you really like remembering that part?"

Maegan entered the Meeting Room, taking a seat beside Carrie. She looked around the room, taking in the sights of horror and weaponry on the walls, including the bloody sword. A quick thought of disgust passed through her mind, but she blocked it. She pushed all of her second thoughts out of her head. Thoughts like those could cause her death. Instead, she just stared up at Zy and waited.[/font]
Zy stared at the people as they entered the room, a smirk lining his lips. His eyes fell on Isabella as she spoke. "I celebrate my triumphs. The sword does not allow me to live in the past, it motivates me for the future. And, as you know, the mess is the best part of the kill. Well, not the mess. Just the blood."
He then gazed over the others. Everyone was not in attendance, but he had no intention of waiting for them. They would be punished for their tardiness though.
"Hello all. I see that a few of us are not among us. That shall not delay our meeting though. I have called you all here to address our inactivity within the school. How many of you have recruited a new member since the start of the school year?"

Carrie sighed, leaning back in her chair and smirking at Isabella. That lycan girl just didn't rest. "I attempted," she began matter-of-factly, now looking at Zy, "but she seemed uninterested, to say the least. And to say any more would only put our society in jeopardy."
Adrienne took it as a rhetorical question, staring at her nails. She looked up, her eyes still cold as they had slowly become, ever since that night of torture. "Evlyn is too righteous, Tristan too soft. How are we supposed to judge?" she asked, her voice shallow and twisted, as though the thought of corrupting them had actually crossed her mind.
A small part of her fought, angrily, very Adrienne-like. It didn't seem to want to be forgotten, much less die as she willed it to.
Isabella's grin broadened. "They're so evil. It's not a wonder we go down in such infamy with your recruits. I daresay our tactics are questionable at times, but these soldiers? God, they're more like hitmen, or assassins," she began, though sounding more excited than anything else.
"I'm Isabella, by the way," she introduced herself to them. "Carrie should know who I am...should, anyway," she looked down at the other girl, her eyes narrowing. It was evident that the very idea of one not knowing her deeply irked her. "Is, Izzy are both acceptable, nick-name wise."

"I've spoken to a few of the new students. I figured that gaining their trust would be a good idea before recruiting them," Maegan replied. She had spoken to some first years, not willingly though, and she could recruit some of them if she needed to. She hoped.
Zy glared down at all of those who spoke, except Isabella. His contorted his voice into a high pitched mocking tone and said, "Oh, he's too soft and she's not interested. I need to gain their trust first," he whined.
His voice quickly switched to serious as he continued, "That should not matter. You are here to make them join. Make them want to join. You do not gather members by waiting for them to be perfectly dedicated. You force them to be dedicated. They do not need information, not just yet. Promise them power, promise them money, promise them fame. Promise them whatever the hell it takes to make them join. They do not need information, they do not need to be trusted. Until they have proven themselves to me, they will not know anything of importance, just as none of you know information of any importance. Not yet at least."

Adrienne nodded, completely unperturbed by the relatively insane situation. She smiled serenely to herself, gazing at the tips of her fingernails. "Understood," she muttered to herself, under her breath. Her eyes flicked over the faces of her peers, then she settled for looking at every weapon in the room.
"Adrienne," she responded to Isabella's introduction, nodding her head in acknowledgment as she introduced herself.
"Adrienne?" Isabella responded, looking thoughtful, and then smiling again. "I like it. It's different, but not overly so. Most of what Zy is going to tell you all is basically common sense. Use your heads, or make him write you spark notes. He has a tendency to rant, in case you have not noticed. I mean, what he just said now he could have summed up with, 'Recruit people. Lie if it's necessary. Trust means nothing.'
"I don't understand how anyone who is ever put in charge of recruitment for a time doesn't find the whole ordeal monotonous. I mean, you basically say the same thing every time you get a new group. God, I would shoot myself," she commented, her voice light with a very slight underlying annoyance, as if she heard the speech one too many times. Or twelve too many times.

Sebastian entered the room, Late but at least he was still there, "Hello everyone, Ladies, Zy." He said smirking, He sat down and looked at them, "So what have I missed?"

Maegan remained silent at Zy's lecture. She feared that speech would only further anger him.
Zy's gaze focused on Isabella with a glare. "Thank for you that summary. And if you must know, recruitment becomes interesting once the threats and torture begin. I just need some recruits before that can commense."
He then summoned a piece of paper, on which he planned to get the names of some new recruitments. His task was cut short as the door opened and Sebastian entered. Zy's gaze hardened instantly, his stare now icy and frozen with rage. "How nice of you to arrive," Zy said, his voice thick with sarcasm.
As Sebastian sat down, Zy waved his hand to send the chair out from behind him. "Lateness will not be tolerated within the Association." As he said this, his pale hand flicked once more, a flash of light within the darkness. This time, he aimed to throw Sebastian backwards into the wall. Though messy, brute force was effective when needed.

Isabella smiled serenely at Zy. "But of course you would feel that way. I was never tortured in order to join, and I am actually loyal to the cause. In fact, I would give away my life for it. I never had to torture people either. It's not their fault you're such a bastard. No one would want to join something you were a part of," she commented, her voice now taunting as she pushed her back off the wall and pulled up a chair.
She glanced at the new arrival whom Zy did not seem quite happy with. "Hello. I'm Isabella. Is and Izzy are both acceptable," she greeted him brightly, then turned to Zy. "Well he's not very timely, now is he?"
Adrienne's already pallid complexion paled as Sebastian made his appearance, but she did not acknowledge his presence.
"Well that's disrespectful," she commented in a detached manner, leaning back in her chair as she waited for the meeting to continue onward.

Maegan wainted for Zy's reaction of Sebastian's late arrival with morbid fascination. She hoped to see the flesh burned from his bones, the blood drained from his corpse, or the nails pried from his fingers. She hoped to watch his bones broken to the point where they stabbed through his skin like shards of glass. She hoped to watch his organs inflame themselves, burning him from the inside out. Anything to cause him pain and suffering.
Of course, she did not know if she could bear to watch any such things, but the thoughts sounded good in her head, as such thoughts usually did.[/font]
Zy smirked toward Isabella, ignoring Sebastian's punishment for a moment. "Well, my method is more fun."

Sebastian was thrown against the wall, Without making the pain known he got up and brushed himself off, He retook his seat and looked around the room, He glared at Zy with anger though he wouldn't do anything.

Zy watched Sebastian take a seat, a satisfied smirk on his face. "Are we ready to move on now?" he asked. Before giving Sebastian a chance to answer, he turned back to the group, addressing them as a whole.
"Now, I would like for each of you to come up with some possible new recruits. I would like to record their names and later record your progress with them. It is the goal of each of you to corrupt one new member before Christmas break, at which point they will be trained by me and another Association member."

Adrienne smiled wryly, musing to herself for a moment. Her vengeance had increased in such a manner that she was no longer focusing it on but just one person. Anyone she could corrupt, repeat what had been done to her, hurt, she would.
"Tristan Emmit," Adrienne responded, her eyes darkening with the tone of her voice. The smile did not waver from her lips, and when she laid eyes on Sebastian, seated after being thrown into the stone wall, the smile widened.

Maegan thought for a moment. She did not know of very many new students, none of which she thought could be recruited. She tried to think back to the summer when she met a few at Sebastian's house. "Well, there is this one person, Myles. He seems like a manwhore and rather pathetic, so he could be easily corrupted to follow the Association."[/font]
Zy nodded at the two of them, and wrote the names down. Then he turned to Maegan, "Pathetic is not what I'm looking for. I've recorded his name, but I suggest that you do not bring me a recruit of poor skill. Yes, easily corrupted would be nice, but not at the risk of stupidity."

Sebastian smirked, "May I be an overachiever here and attempt to gain two members?" His eyes glaring at Adrienne, A small mutter under his breath spoke the words, "Whore." He looked at Zy, "A set of twins has transfered to Final Academy, I'm more than certain I can convince the girl.." He looked back at Adrienne, "And the second would be October Becker." He cracked his knuckles, "A quick check into her background says that she's a hunter, A very skilled one at that. She would be useful to the Association."

Adrienne smiled, not even fazed at his comment. "Twins? Oh, just one twin and another girl?" she smirked, her voice turning taunting. "You don't think you're capable of both twins. Come on, afraid you won't be able to recruit someone you cannot seduce?"
She turned forward again, mentally hitting herself. God damn. Why hadn't she done any background checks? Well, she knew basic information, but nothing in depth. "Emit is rather intelligent. Which I am hoping turns out to be good. He is also in very good shape," she finished, her eyes flicking to Sebastian as she smiled once more.

Sebastian smirked, "I would suppose the same goes for you Alste." He leaned back and put his hands behind his head in a relaxed motion. "October Becker is also a electrokinetic, can control the earth and is also a werewolf." He spoke matter of factly, "Also, Her and Theo Runner have already made quite the impression on each other, According to the gossip."

Adrienne snorted derisively. "Yeah. Sure. Didn't he, as word goes, restrain her successfully without even using any powers? And he's still broken up over the recent events. Maybe with some training she'll amount to something, but I hope she can do more than that."
She leaned back in her chair, positioning her back so it was resting on the arm and so she was facing Sebastian. "Emmit's a vampire, telepath, and wizard. I must admit, I have not researched him, but I'm sure that can be fixed upon my return to the school."

"Tsk, Tsk, Alste." Sebastian said simply, "I unlike you, Did my research on both of my targets, One just so happens to be more useful, Plus you lose points because your target finds you attractive or shall I say the other way around, Since I don't think anyone can find you attractive. Unless under the influence."

"Funny," Adrienne responded coldly, smiling darkly. "Then maybe you should stop crying over me when you're not all coked up. You're only snapping the underrate insults because I'm now one of the few you can't have any more. Right up there with your sister."
