Isabella moistened her lips for the umpteenth time. It was a nervous habit of her. As well as messing with my hair Isabella thought to herself as she ran a hand through her hair. Despite the nervousness she walked swiftly and proudly and hoped that no one would notice it was fake. There was still the trace of fear making her heart pound a bit more swiftly than it should have been.
She made sure to stay away from where her parent's chamber would be not sure if they were still alive or vanquished. As she walked she felt guilty for not being able to stay surfaced. I'm making no improvement. Isabella remembered her parents saying that being good was the easy way out but for Isabella it was turning out to be the other way around. The walls started to narrow and she knew she was heading towards a chamber but didn't know which.
A demon grabbed her arm and for a second Isabella felt all her muscles freeze but the next second she gained a sense of self preservation and shook her arm of it prepared to turn invisible and kick the demon's @ss. "It's for your own good," the demon said making Isabella roll her eyes. Demon's weren't interested in other people's safety. "Selene's chamber is at the end of this pathway and you won't make it out alive."
"You're not concerned with my safety," Isabella commented plainly keeping her voice playing to prevent the hint of fear. The demon shrug and a fire ball appeared in his hand. Isabella quickly put up an ice wall around her which the fireball hit and melted. That had given her enough time to turn invisible come foward quietly grabbing the demon arm and using her strength flip him over making him fall his head hitting the floor first. He didn't rise but Isabella wasn't stupid enough to think he was dead, just knocked out. By now she was visible again and she was about to shimmer out before she heard footsteps from the direction of what the demon had said was Selene's chamber. Isabella remembered hearing the name used before but didn't remember how.

((OOC: Got a bit confused at the end but I think you wrote that she heard Selene's footsteps before she shimmered out))
Selene tossed some of her dark red, almost brown hair. It had become somewhat of a habit that she did that. To think I told Courtney she was too conceited she thought to herself. She strutted down the slightly narrow walls that exited from her Chamber. Normally she would flame to where she wanted to go, but if she always teleported she would become too lazy for her liking.
She stopped, however, at the sound of a demon saying her name. An icy pleasure aroused in her and she allowed it to be displayed on her face. Watching from a distance but still clear on what was being said and done, Selene waited until the male demon was unconscious before showing herself, just as the girl looked ready to leave. Her footsteps echoed slightly against the cave-like walls of the passage as she walked towards Isabella.
She had, in that one moment, seen three of the girls powers...the one that intrigued her was the ice wall. She had never heard of it before, except for Rachelle but she could control ice so Selene didn't count that. Her dangerous eyes sparkled with an unknown emotion as her lips twisted into a cold smile as she reached the opposite side of the unconscious demon, across from Isabella, studying the girl's features carefully and aware for anything that would let out anything about her. Selene had never seen her around before. Well maybe she had but not that she remembered.
She bent down and looked at the demon with a probing look for a second before opening her right hand and letting a flow of flames envelope the demon before turning it to dust. "Now he's dead," she stated the obvious simply as she straightened, tossing her hair...again.

(Ooc:I didn't, but that's alright ) Isabella didn't shimmer too far away from the spot where she had been but she immediately turned invisible. She was curious as to see this Selene girl and she took her shoes off hiding them as best as she could so they wouldn't grab Selene's attention when they turned visible. Now shoeless she could walk towards her without being heard. She watched as Selene killed the demon for her. With Isabella's powers it was hard to kill anyone. Unless it's life or death circumstances she thought to herself as she thought of her brother. Fear erupted hard in her stomach as she forced herself to turn visible. Studying Selene for a few seconds before she finally said, "So you're Selene." Isabella pushed her hair back behind her ear. "I guess I should thank you," said Isabella airily. It was a statement that Selene might or might not like but Isabella wasn't sure if she cared. The girl didn't look familiar to her although the name sounded still a bit familiar to her. She realized that the girl didn't look too older than her and that was possibly why she had heard of her but not seen her. Isabella had left the underworld two years ago after all.

(swrry)
Selene surveyed Isabella carefully when she turned visible. "Obviously." Not much people looked like Selene, and rarely any demons could match her cruelty. She hadn't met any that could yet though she didn't doubt there were. Only a few exceptions of demons were good, or undecided.
"Thank me?" she asked, and her voice echoed a cold amusement. "For what?" Selene had not vanquished the demon for Isabella...if he wanted to, Selene would have let him kill her for all she cared. She had done it simply because she felt like it.

Isabella moistened her lips once more when Selene answered her comment. Honestly, to Isabella it wasn't that obvious or she wouldn't have said that allowed. She decided to say exactly what she was thinking to this girl that at the moment wasn't at all as frightning as the demon made it out to be, but Isabella wasn't quick to underestimate her, she knew once she did all was lost. "It wasn't all that obvious to me..." said Isabella trailing off just leaving the sentence hanging.
At Selene's question Isabella shrugged. The coldness in Selene's voice didn't phase her. It took more than a cold voice to make her worried. Her parents had been cold, after all, and her brother. She wondered if Selene had heard about her brother but she wasn't about to ask her since Isabella did not know her.
"Then I guess I won't thank you," Isabella said finally. "Although normally people say you're welcome." Isabella could have laughed at that statement. Demons weren't really ones to exchange pleasantries especially if they didn't know each other. Isabella wasn't sure if she'd get to know Selene but at the moment it seemed if she did it wouldn't be in a good way.

Selene ignored Isabella when she said it wasn't obvious to her. She had come from the direction of her Chamber, she didn't see who else it could be. Selene almost laughed at Isabella's statement, and that was saying a lot as not many people could do that. "Normally people don't live in the underworld either," she pointed out.

Although Selene had come from her chamber Isabella had learned long ago not to trust demons so how could she really be sure. Isabella was pretty sure Selene wouldn't try to look at it from her point of view, she didn't seem like the type. Which was alright since being a demon it was in Isabella's nature to care for herself only. If killing my own brother doesn't show that then I don't kow what does Isabella thought but shook the thought away.
At Selene's remark Isabella, before she could stop herself, rolled her eyes. Smart ass Isabella thought to herself but was smart enough not to say that outloud. Making trouble with demons didn't really look like the smartest thing to do at the moment. Then again, the next thing that did slip out of her mouth wasn't meant to make friends either.
"You haven't really proven to me you're above average," taunted Isabella and almost bit down on her tongue after she did. She really had to watch what she said. If Isabella was right, and the girl had big pride, then she didn't expect the greatest reaction.

Selene's eyes hardened at Isabella's next words. A girl, probably younger than her, not looking powerful and certainly not as good looking had just told her that? Selene did not take very well to insults or taunts and it wasn't going to be very different now. "Are you sure you want me too?" Selene could strangle Isabella...though she always preferred fire.

(Ooc:I puti n her Isabella's taller and she's like 5"9 but if she isn't taller than Selene just tell me, I assumed. ) Isabella knew she had been right at the look Selene's eyes took next. She always made trouble one way or another when she least wanted to make trouble. Isabella wasn't too scared yet but she knew if the girl attacked her, which at the moment it was a surprise she hadn't already, she would be. As she studied the girl she realized that while they looked different they had a lot of the same characteristics. Maybe Isabella's hair was darker although at the moment she couldn't tell and Isabella's skin was darker. Selene had a more dangerous look to her while Isabella had a bit of a...sweeter appearance. Although Isabella was taller she looked a couple years younger than Selene not because Selene looked particularly old but because Isabella had always looked younger. As she thought of compliments she had gotten by mortals she didn't think Selene would be thinking the same at the moment. Isabella could already tell Selene was pride and wondered if she could use vanity as a weak point if it really came down to the fact that Selene was stronger than her. Isabella shrugged at Selene's question. "I'm not sure if you're actually expecting an answer but I'm not particularly interested, no," said Isabella knowing that that was an answer not many people expected to hear. "Although I don't think I'd be one to stop you if you really wanted to." Isabella then gave her a very sweet smile, which was obviously fake, and said, "So, it's up to you."

(OOC:Selene's tall probably about 5"7)
If looks could kill Isabella would have probably died an extremely painful death. No one crossed Selene like that and got away with it. "You're right, it is up to me." She opened her hand and a thin line of flames flew out of it and surrounded Isabella. "I could have let it go directly on you but it's better seeing you trying not to move," she said, mocking the sweet smile Isabella had given her a few moments ago.

(Ooc: Isabella's two inches taller then)
Isabella thought the look in Selene's eyes was a mix between hilarious and intimidating. None of those emotions showed on Isabella's face though except a tiny smile. It was always fun messing with demons that acted like bad @sses. Generally, it was easy to piss them off.
When flames surrounded Isabella she, ironically enough, let out a shiver. Fire always made her nervous and she didn't exactly have powers to put it out. Her ice walls wouldn't work well against Selene because last time Isabella checked fire melted ice. She stayed in the circle though until Selene made her little comment.
Isabella shimmered out of the circle and back in front of Selene. She hoped it'd be a surprise to her that she had an amused smile on her face. "Oh my god, Selene, you are so nice! Maybe the nicest demon in the Underworld; I could just hug you," Isabella said in a fake high-pitched, girly voice as a response to Selene saying she could have had the flames go right towards her. Her face changed back into her smug smile and she said, "But I won't. I might throw up." It was another blow towards Selene's vanity she knew, but now she'd find out if it really was her weak point. That's if Selene took the bait. Most demons did but Isabella still couldn't be sure.

((OOC: I think thats pretty obvious lol. Wow my posts are really short these past few days...))
I should have guessed she would have teleported out... Still, seeing the girl shiver around fire was worth it. Selene rolled her eyes at Isabella's childish antics. "Never in all my life..." Isabella as certainly not the typical demon. She had figured that out by now. Normally she didn't actually get to know demons- only Courtney really. They either kept the conversation too short, or she killed them if they annoyed her.
She had to put it to Isabella though, she could act pretty well. Selene had never bothered with that. Her eyes, face voice...all were simple expressionless, unless she was angry. That was the only time you would get her to betray her emotions. "Again you prove that you're weak...demons don't throw up."

(Ooc: Haha, I noticed ) When Isabella heard Selene's first comment she smiled in triumph. Some people would have thought that a slip of emotion but not Isabella. How could Selene really use that against her? It was more like bragging. Isabella knew she wasn't a typical demon. She never had been even when she was all for the being evil campaign. Isabella guessed it was because she had something other demons either didn't have or didn't bother to use or didn't use very well. She wasn't the strongest demon around, not at all, but she could drive the other demons insane. Hit them with a weakness until more start to show. Then use those against them. That was Isabella's style, one that few people had. It had worked on Jake, one of her few kills considering her passive powers. When Selene said that Isabella threw her head back and laughed. Partly because she was amused but mostly because she hoped it'd piss Selene off. As she stopped laughing she shook her head the laughter still in her eyes. "I dare say I'm not the one whose showing the most weakness here, Selene," said Isabella teasing her her smug smile showing up again on her lips.

Selene raised an eyebrow as Isabella laughed. Maybe she wasn't really evil. In that case she'd takl to Courtney about it. She was independent, and preferred doing things herself, but working with Courtney always seemed a more frightening prospect to their victims. Courtney worked more with Demons lower than her, like Roxanne, but if she ever used her powers with Selene's to plan against someone, it always had disastrous effects. "You don't know me, so you don't know what I'm thinking or showing," she said simply. Selene didn't like Isabella's attitude at all. It didn't unnerve her, or scare her, or anger her- well, she wasn't angry anymore at least. She just didn't like it.
Selene unfolded her arms. "You better watch your words unless you want to burn to death," she pointed out. Well she didn't know Isabella's powers but she hoped she had no way to block flames.

Isabella shrugged the smug smile still on her lips as she did so. She looked at Selene with an expression that screamed I know something you don't know. It unnerved msot demons. Especially the low level demons who acted like bad @sses. They usually thought that Isabella how somehow figured out that they weren't as tough as they pretended to be and panicked. As for Selene Isabella didn't know. There could be possibilities, like Isabella had sent demons to spy on her hoping to cause her downfall. Of-course, it wasn't true. It was all a matter of what your opponent thought.
She didn't respond the first comment just because it didn't need much of a response. Isabella wasn't about to say that pride was a weak point. Or vanity, which Isabella wasn't sure if Selene had but it was a strong possiblity. If you told the person their weaknesses they would know what to watch out for.
At Selene's next comment sure, it unnerved Isabella greatly but she made sure she didn't notice. Isabella holding her eyes to Selene the whole time back away three steps and held out her arms as if giving her body over to Selene. "Go ahead, kill me then. Is that what you want? A free kill? I heard upper power demons liked a challenge not like the low level demons who prey on their first opportunity at a kill free or not. So, kill me, prove that you're not as powerful as you think you are. Let's just hope no one finds out the true Selene," said Isabella her face completely serious.
Isabella wasn't sure if Selene would believe that. If it were Isabella she would have simply laughed at the demon but Isabella wasn't Selene and she couldn't tell if she'd buy it. But even if she didn't believe it Isabella had just taken a blow at her pride and if she was as prideful as Isabella believed her to be then she'd feel the need to correct her. Of-course, if Selene didn't take her comment personally then she'd throw fire at her and obviously Isabella would shimmer out. Isabella wasn't stupid, she didn't fear death, but a stupid thing like that was suicide. She was far enough that if Selene threw a fire ball or just fire itself then Isabella could just shimmer out unscratched. Isabella wondered if Selene noticed that at all.
