Carrie left Maegan's apartment, assuming the other was following, though she never actually looked behind her. She paused on the outside of a sophisticated Italian restaurant, walking straight through to the back where a tall, black-stained door stood. The brass knob looked rusted and stiff, but opened easily at Carrie's fingers.
She pulled out her phone once she opened the door, sending a text message to Sebastian. She knew Adrienne was with him as she had been keeping a track on her thoughts and emotions. Bring her to the back of the nice Italian place down the road from your hotel. The doors are open, they'll seal themselves behind you.
The door had allowed them into a stone hallway, the path dimly lit by hanging lanterns. In one direction there was a dead-end, or what seemed to be. The letters "BL" were entwined in an edgy, cursive writing, glowing red. Carrie stopped short below them, reaching out her bony ashen hand. Her nail drew a path between the stones and when she brought it back to her side the crevices between the stone wall seemed to run blood. In a shocking instant the wall immediately folded in on itself. She stepped through. It was a dark red and black room, lit entirely with candles and more lanterns. The majority of the crowd seemed to be vampires, but a few kinetics and mortals were mixed in. She could pick out the humans who were merely being manipulated by the vampires. Their eyes were surrounded by eyeliner, an expression of forced calm and indifference on their faces. She could feel their emotions, their heartbeats racing. All at once she felt amusement and jealousy. Her heart would never beat of its own accord again...
A handsome-looking electrokinetic leaned over the shoulder of one girl and sent a jet of electricity up from a drink on the table before her. She jumped in shock at the sight, and it sent him into a round of laughter.
"Welcome to BloodLust," a dark-haired man greeted them. His skin was as pale as death, but it had an unearthly glow.
"We're here to meet Zy," Carrie responded, looking at him disdainfully. He nodded and turned around, obviously feeling snubbed.
She leaned towards Maegan. "It's just over here." She lead her to yet another doorway, but stopped short of it. A young man with black hair and shocking blue eyes was standing before it, his arms crossed over his chest.
"Two more are coming," she muttered to him.
He nodded in recognition, looking over Maegan. "So this is Maegan?" he asked, a sort of greeting to her.
Carrie nodded, though she knew it was for Maegan, not for her. She looked over her shoulder as she waited.[/color]

Maegan followed Carrie, wondering exactly where she was being taken. Once they reached the inside of the club, she paused for a second, finding it hard to take everything in. It reminded her slightly of previous clubs she had been in, but the entire place was filled with vampires and the powered. She then saw Carrie wandering off and hurried to catch up with her, avoiding the other people in the club. This task was exceptionally difficult because every time a cute or hot person caught her eye, she had to force herself not to stop and talk to them. She would do this in any other club, but she was supposed to be meeting Zy.
She caught sight of Carrie once more and headed over to her. She was standing in front of a man about their age. He had dark hair and bright blue eyes. They glowered slightly in the candlelight. A seductive smile found it's way onto Maegan's lips. "Hello."[/font]

Waiters passed through carrying trays adorned with drinks. The colors ranged from blood red, which was actually blood, all the way to electric blue and acid green. Carrie grabbed one of the acid green drinks and took a sip from it. "This would be Zy," she introduced.
Zy smirked and nodded. "Two others? You had previously told me only two so far in total."
"That was before a little bet was made. Though the one does not know what she exactly is walking into," Carrie continued, swirling the liquid in her crystal cup. It gave off a luminescant glow and the substance inside was shocking and sour, though not unpleasant.
Zy looked amused for a moment, his smirk becoming much more prominent. "Well she will soon." He glanced back at Maegan, wanting to say something else but decided to wait.

Sebastian entered the building looking confused, He looked around for Carrie and Maegan before he spotted them talking to some strange bloke. His hand tightened around Adrienne and he brought them both to the trio. "Lovely running into you ladies here." He said in a fake shock. He glanced at Adrienne, "I swear I had no idea they would be here." He said trying to reassure her. "And who is this?" He asked Carrie gesturing to the black haired male.

Maegan looked at the drinks for a second, highly considered grabbing the blood, but decided against it. Instead, she grabbed a pinkish colored drink and took a sip, finding herself pleased with it. Maegan looked Zy over, debating how dangerous he was. She knew very little about him, and he already looked like he could be violent. Maegan didn't care. He was hot.
She remained silent though, waiting for the others to arrive. She then turned to see Sebastian and Adrienne. "Hello," she greeted.[/font]

"Zy, Sebastian," Carrie said, motioning between the two. "And yes, what a surprise," she drawled, looking contrary to shock.
Adrienne spun on Sebastian. "What the fuck? Can you stop lying to me for even long enough to breathe?" she seethed incredulously. "Maegan and Carrie? You didn't know? You don't know much, do you? Evidently not enough to be honest to me for even five minutes." Zy..., his name resounded through her head and her face paled with a realization. It was exactly who Theo warned her about.
Carrie smiled wickedly. Looks like I'm winning so far, she thought loudly.

Sebastian glared at Carrie, 'Minor set back, Don't get cocky dear.' He thought in response, "That mouth of yours is indeed fierce darling." He said smirking, "Now honestly, What could I possibly gain from lying to you?" He asked calmly though his voice was mocking.

Adrienne laughed bitterly. "Why don't you tell me?" she asked acidly, wanting to storm off right then but she didn't have enough self control to walk away from a fight.
If by minor you mean comparable to a collapse in the construction of a skyscraper, Carrie thought mockingly.
"Lovers' quarrel?" Zy asked, his voice carrying a mock air of interest. With a roll of his eyes he grabbed one of the cups filled with blood from a tray. He pushed open the door from which they were standing, and waited for everyone to enter first, giving threatening looks to anyone paused before they entered. The room was only slightly more well lit than the outer club, but overall it was remarkably similar.

Sebastian walked in and wrapped an arm around Adrienne's waist possessively, "We can finish this later Adrienne. But not now." He said in an aggravated tone, He glanced at Zy before holding his grip on Adrienne even tighter, They both alone were the only humans in the room, The odds weren't looking pretty.
"No feuding here, Just a slight misunderstanding.." He replied calmly, Looking at Carrie he thought quite bitterly, 'No one asked for you input Disclameigh.' He focused his attention back to Zy, "You may begin." He said in a cocky tone.

"Look around, Adams. It's not just vampires in here. There are the powered and even a few mortals mixed in," Carrie said lightly to him as she walked through the doorway. Not getting attached, are you?
Adrienne pulled slightly away from Sebastian, to at least loosen his hold. A look was shot at him over her shoulder as she followed after Carrie. What a pickle she got herself into. She was walking right into the hands of someone Theo feared, and was with the one person her aunt had a problem with. "Slight misunderstanding? Shove it up your dishonest ass," she hissed at him under her breath.
Zy stood by the door and waited for everyone to enter before he shut it behind them with a sharp snap. "Some of you may or may not know what this is about. For centuries those with magical abilities have been repressed and even killed for what they were. Then they turned around and did the same to others. Those like us, who possessed powers far greater than even they could imagine. It frightened them. Vampires, the powered, werewolves, all one and the same. The Association was formed long enough ago, but has only recently become organized enough to take more recruits. We once looked for peace, but we now know that's improbable. We must rise above them and take control if we're to survive," he began, and his eyes stayed cold and expressionless through his words. "Do I have your word that you are willing to do everything in your power for the cause?"
Adrienne started for the door, about to leave more quickly than she had come. "No, I'm out of here. I didn't even know what this was about, I agreed to come to the meeting, not to join some cult. It sounds like a terrorist organization to me," she replied coldly, not daring enough to turn her back on those still in the room, so she groped behind her for the door-knob.

Sebastian looked at Adrienne, "Don't leave." He whispered to her softly, He offered his hand to her, "Everything will be okay, I will protect you." He said glancing at Zy, "I'm in." He said grinning, He had just sold his soul to the devil and strangely, It had never felt better. "Would you rather be crushed for being weak or be on top and be in control of everything?" He asked her, He placed one hand on her face and stroked her cheek, "Trust me." He said in a rather velvety voice.

Adrienne laughed without humor, her eyes cold. "I made that mistake twice already, Adams. I'm not about to do it again," she hissed cruelly, trying to keep herself from staying, her hand turning the knob and opening the door.

Zy stalked over to Adrienne, putting his hand over hers. "Now where do you think your going?" he asked in a sickeningly sweet voice. His fingers clamped down on her hand and he pulled, yanking her away from the door. "You don't think you can just leave, now, do you?"
Zy turned, looking at the other people in the room with a smirk on his face. He pointed to one of them, the red haired girl, and said, "Go fetch me a mortal. Any one of them will do." He then stalked across the room, still gripped Adrienne's wrist. He opened a door on the other side of the room, leading into a room similar to the previous one. He muttered something and two chairs appeared in the room. He flung Adrienne forward and slammed the door shut. "Oh no. Leaving is not that easy."
Maegan watched with morbid amusement at Adrienne getting dragged off and then headed back out into the club, sniffing the air in search of a mortal. She quickly made her way over to one, seeing that it was a young girl. A rather pretty looking one too, all sweet and innocent. Maegan bit back the urge to laugh. Beside her sat a vampire, watching his prey with amusement. "Excuse me," she said, pushing her way between them. "Can I borrow this mortal? Kay, thanks, bye."
Maegan grabbed the girl by the hand and dragged her back into the room and heading through the door towards where Zy was.

Adrienne backed up as she was flung into the room, swallowing hard as she tried to ignore just how accelerated her heart beat became. "I'll burn down the entire building before you touch me," she muttered harshly through her teeth.

Sebastian took out his wand but didn't aim it yet. "Leave her alone." He demanded looking at Adrienne, He looked at Carrie, 'What does he plan to do with her?" He asked stepping forward.

Carrie raised an eyebrow. "Make her join and make sure she keeps her mouth shut," she replied coolly. "You've put her through more pain than Zy could ever hope to, quit acting like you care now." She began pacing fluidly across the room.

Zy grinned at Adrienne in her panic and laughed. "Good luck burning down a fireproof building," he mocked. Then turned as the door opened and saw a mortal girl being shoved through the door, Maegan standing in the doorway. "You can leave now," he told her and watched as she turned and left the room, a questioning look in her eye.
Zy then turned back to Adrienne and the mortal girl. First, he grabbed Adrienne and dragged her towards one of the chairs, practically throwing her into it. Restraints sprung up from the sides of the chair arms, binding her wrists and ankles. Zy then turned back to the mortal girl. She was cowering in the corner, petrified with fear of him. Zy just laughed.
He stalked towards her, putting out his arms to block any attempts she had at leaving. The pathetic look on her face, the look of terror and utter helplessness, made Zy's grin intensify. "Where are you trying to go? Trying to get away from me? But why would you ever want to do that? We're just going to play a little game," Zy said with mock caring, smirking why he spoke. Then he sat her down in the chair opposite of Adrienne, restraints springing up to bind her as well.
"Don't worry, this won't hurt a bit," Zy told the girl, a knife appearing in his hand. He twirled the knives between his fingers, walking back and forth between the two girls.

Sebastian glared at Carrie, "Can you stop being a vile bitch just for a few minutes?" He hissed venomously. He leaned against the wall and watched her, "If she dies, I will make sure I will make you suffer for the rest of your existence." He spoke to her but he wasn't looking at her.

Adrienne choked back a hysterical sob, selfishly hoping she would be killed first so she would not have to see the other girl get murdered. Theo was right. She was stupid. A sudden compulsion to cry and beg and offer anything to let them both go leapt into her head, but she couldn't quite bring the words to her lips.
"'Vile bitch'," Carrie mused, her face hard as she stopped her pacing to turn at Sebastian. "You're still ignorant and believe you can do no wrong. If she ends up dead, it's your fault, no matter how you rationalize it out."

Zy watched the two girls growing hysterical with a sadistic grin on his face. He paced back and forth between the two, watching their misery, enjoying it. Finally, he stopped in front of the mortal girl. He waved his hand and two buckets appeared beneath her wrists. He slowly flipped each girl's wrists upwards, dragging his fingers along her pale skin. He then moved on to the other one, staring directly into her face the entire time. Pure horror was etched into her features and Zy was enjoying ever minute of this. Then, he stepped to the side, allowing the girl to look at Adrienne and vice versa.
He looked at Adrienne, taking in her expression, enjoying her suffering. "So, plan to join the society yet?"
