" Greetings your majesty ", they all bowed as the Princess walked in. What now?. Was I supposed to bow down too ?.
I didn't bow, I just continued sitting where I was. Victoria looked at me and smiled. I wonder what was going on in that head of hers.
Right now, She wasn't wearing a uniform. Instead, she was wearing a gown that resembled a night wear. Everyone sat while she took the chair in the middle of the room.
" Good evening guys ", She started " I called this meeting today, first because we have a new member and secondly because of something else which is important ", She said.
She turned her eyes towards me.
" Go on darling, introduce yourself ".
Oh right. Introduction. I got up.
" Hello everyone, my name is Elisse Rover, I am a fresher at Avalon high ", I said rubbing the back of my head. I bent to seat but there were all looking at me as if there was some information I was holding " And I'm also a dhampir ".
" A dhampir huh ", Julia exclaimed " That's a rare class ".
" Yah, it's even more rare than your classes, Julia and Juno ", Ray said.
What did he mean by rare class ?.
" Alright everyone will now take turns to introduce themselves to the newcomer ", Victoria said " Selene you go first".
Selene stood up with a blank expression.
" Hello, everyone I'm Selene Sepet, I am a baron ranked vampire and I'm also the master's ' queen'".
What was this about being Baron ranked and what did she mean by the master's queen ? . I tried hard not to show my confusion. Ray went next.
" I am Ray Albion, killer, I am a knight ranked Vampire and the Princess's ace ", he said.
Wait a minute! Queen, Ace. Weren't these names of cards from the card game. Were they naming themselves after cards.
" My name is Julia' Light ' Rindraugr, I am a b ranked draugr from the Rindraugr clan and I'm the Princess's jack ", Julia went next.
" And I'm Juno ' dark ' Rindraugr, I am a b rank draught from the Rindraugr clan and I'm also the princess' Jack ", Juno came last.
That proved it. They were all naming themselves after the cards. They were also going with different clan names except for Selene who used the name ' Sepet '. That was also Victoria's surname.
Did that mean they were both related? I wondered.
As I was thinking about these things, Miss Bubbles walked in holding a tray with five transparent glass cups. Inside the cups was red liquid.
She began Sharing it. First she handed a cup to the Princess and then to Selene before passing to Ray, Julia and Juno respectively.
Hey!. Wasn't I in the list of guest ?. Why wasn't I receiving any drinks.
Victoria must have noticed the look on my face.
" Don't worry darling, you are going to receive the blood communion ", She smiled mischievously. The others exchanged weird glances.
Why did this bitch have that look on her faces ? And why were the others acting up .
" Well moving on to other matters now that we are done with introductions ", Victoria continued " I called this meeting to talk about the Uprising ".
" Those bastards ", Ray clenched his fist.
" Hey, What's Uprising ?", I asked.
It was Selene who answered me.
" The Uprising is an Organization made up of strays from all supernatural races. Vampires, Werewolves, Witches, Fallen angels, demons etc. We do not know what the main objectives of the Uprising is, but they have been massacring people at free will and whenever they please ".
Victoria sipped from her glass.
" I found Crane at the same place where I turned my darling, it seems he too has joined Ereneth.... ".
Wait, did she say Ereneth?.
" Errrm, excuse me, did you say Ereneth ?", I asked.
" Yea, She seems to be the leader of the Uprising ", Juno answered " Why did you ask ?".
" Errm nothing, just that I actually met someone whose name was Ereneth............. ", and then, I explained everything that happened with Ereneth.
" That bitch ", The air in the room became tense as Victoria stood from her chair. I was almost choking. Like what the actual fuck ?.
" What I don't understand is ", Ray rubbed his chin thoughtfully " Why she would ask you to eat dead bodies when she already knows that you are not a zombie ?".
" She's trying to get to me ", Victoria snapped " That bitch, playing with what is mine ".
The immense pressure in the room intensified. I'm like ,' Bitch what the actual fuck. Calm down. I'm the one who got toyed with.... Why are you acting so yanderic '. I'm practically dying out of suffocation here.
All of a sudden, Victoria displays a childlike smile
" Ooh well, we are going on a cleansing tommorow ", She burst out laughing.
Cleansing?. What was that ?. And what was this child like demeanor she put on.
Everyone had shocked expression on their faces.
" Yes, Princess ", they all responded in unison.
" That would be all for today ... Dismissed ", She smiled.
" Alright everyone ", Selene stood " Meeting over, we may now all take our leave ".
