Hearing Selene's first comment Isabella smirked. "Oh, I don't feel like I know everything. I just know I know more than you." Isabella knew she was getting more confident about dealing with Selene than she should but it didn't seem like Selene was worth too much thought. Just another brainless demon. Powerful, maybe, but brainless.
Isabella was surprised when Selene started laughing. She was really not expecting that reaction. She was expecting Selene to call her an immature and weak demon. Again. At her next statement Isabella's eyebrows rose in surprise and she was shocked out of words. Was Selene serious? She looked serious but she could be acting, Isabella knew plenty about acting. Selene didn't look smart enough though. Forgetting her own advice about not underestimating your opponent she took Selene serious.
She stood up and taking Selene's tone she coldly said, "I'll pass really. I'm only interested of talking to people who are...let's see...oh yeah, interesting. Not just the typical, over confident demon."

Selene didn't bother to respond to Isabella. It would just be a waste of breath. Isabella already thought Selene was immune to being clever so why should Selene try to change her way of thinking? Her thoughts didn't matter anyway, what mattered was that she knew she had brains and power enough to get her through to where she was at the moment. In fact in her mind she was smarter than most. Maybe she was, maybe she wasn't but it was what she thought.
Isabella, she could tell, was surprised and that made Selene feel more victorious than she really should have. Isabella was just one demon. For some reason though Selene wanted to win any battles whether it be words or powers between the two of them. No one had reacted like Isabella had to her coldness and she wanted to eliminate it.
At Isabella's cold tone Selene laughed again though with effort she made the laugh sound a touch bit warmer. She hated the sound but it was worth it. "Oh come on," she said earnestly, "if you and I became friends the side of good probably would have something to fear. Evil amuses you...do you have any idea what strenght that displays?" she asked, careful to make it seem real by leaving her voice emotionless.
If her voice changed from cold, emotionless or angry to how a normal person's tone would sound it would be too obvious that she was acting no matter how convincing it seemed. Isabella had seen enough of Selene to know she would be acting if her voice had changed to nice, so she didn't dare try it. She wanted to make Isabella think she wanted to use her for power. Selene didn't gain anything from making her think so by that except she hoped it would get to her and then Selene would've twisted around their situations.
She wasn't sure if Isabella had noticed or if she had been to taken up with her shock but a few moments ago Selene had been cold and Isabella had been amused by her...now it was the other way around.

Isabella was confused although she didn't let that show. A minute ago Selene had been cold and now she was being...she wasn't sure if she could say nice but she wasn't being mean. She tried to listen or look for a sign that she was acting but she couldn't find any. Isabella moistened her lips and pushed her hair back. Anyone who knew Isabella well enough that that was not only a sign that she was nervous or slightly scared but that it was also a sign of uncertainty.
"Who said I was evil?" Isabella asked raising an eyebrow. Her voice wasn't cold anymore since she had switched tracks from shock to confusion. Then, in an attempt to make Selene go back to cold she said, "And I never said evil amuses me. You amuse me."
The thing was Isabella, who had put her guard down by accident, didn't realize the faint hints she had just let out. One, she had said she wasn't evil but she was in the Underworld and not demon hunting so she couldn't be all that good either. And if you figured that much out it was easy to figure out that there must be a reason Isabella wasn't evil since she had never denied she was a demon. Isabella, however, didn't notice her mistake.

Selene shook her head. "You don't need to say it," she said simply, twisting some of her hair in her hands. She was always doing something or the other with her hair, simply because she loved it. Selene loved her entire appearance. In her eyes there was no one more beautiful than herself. Anyone opposing those thoughts she called jealous or something along those lines.
She smiled bitterly at Isabella's comment. "I amuse you? That's new. Then again demons aren't alive long enough to really know if I amuse them alot and you being alive is a good sign...meaning you are worth my time after all," she said. So she thought Isabella was a waste of her time in truth but she was a demon for crying out loud, what did she care about lying?
Selene frowned slightly as she thought over Isabella's words though. Normally she wouldn't have frowned but she had to act like she actually gave a damn about it while still being her evil self. "Wait a second..."she said slowly. "you're not evil, yet you're in the Underworld and obviously not demon huntinig since you didn't try to vanquish me yet," she asked in a voice that clearly said she didn't believe it.
Besides acting like she cared it was actually interesting to try to figure out the girl before her. "So you're not evil yet you're not good and for some reason I doubt you're neutral," she said, thinking out loud. "So what are you?" she questioned, meaning both magical being and the side she was on.

Isabella ignored Selene's first comment but noticed how she was twisting her hair. One thing that Isabella hated about Selene's appearance was that it was so similar to hers. It was so ironic since Isabella thought them to be so completely opposite. That wasn't exactly true, Isabella had grown up heading up a path that Selene was heading until the thing with her brother and the witch happened, of-course, Isabella would never admit that.
"Oh, I'm honored," said Isabella sarcastically in a tone of voice that clearly showed she didn't give a d@mn. The truth was Selene hadn't even tried to kill her so how did that show that she was worth her time? That just meant she knew how to talk her way out of being killed which once again proved that Isabella was smart.
That thought was stuck out of her mind when Selene frowned and said her next words. Isabella's eyes widened in surprise at her statement but she quickly went back into an emotionless face but she remained speechless. Then she realized Selene had actually frowned when she said that. Why would she give a damn? Unless she was actually being truthfull...
When Selene asked her next question Isabella wondered how she should respond to her. The question was obvious but eitherways there was a different way to answer then what Selene was asking. Finally, she decided not to take the question seriously. "What am I? I'm...me. Isabella," she answered not revealing her last name in case there had been talk that she had killed her brother, who as everyone had known was more powerful than her. Then, she rethought that decision. Since Selene had been underestimating her earlier, although now she was saying she was strong, maybe she should make sure that thought was clearly out of her mind. "Isabella Somane."

Selene was about to reply but didn't have a chance as just then a demon faded in. Selene recognised him easily as a demon that had prevented her from killing a witch a few days earlier. "What are you doing here?" she asked icily, looking at him with a hard gaze.
"I knew Arya-"[/i] he began but was cut off as Selene narrowed her eyes at him and he looked at first as though he was stammering but then it became evident he was choking. A red glow appeared around his neck as though something was stranglng him. A few moments later all that was left was a pile of dust.
She looked up at Isabella. For a second she had forgotten she was even there, and remembered what she had said before. "Somane...the name seems familiar..." she said, as if there had been no disturbance.

All of a sudden, a demon faded in. She watched as Selene gave this demon a hard gave and Isabella leaned against the wall as she raised an eyebrow at him starting to stammer. Then she realized he was being choked and a red glow appeared around his neck. When he was strangled she looked calmly at Selene. At the moment, it didn't seem like she was close to doing that to her so she wasn't scared again. She had stopped being scared a while ago. Isabella realized that with the calm look on her face Selene could guess she was used to the demon life still but Isabella didn't care. She'd rather Selene not knowing everything about her. People did often think Isabella was a mysterious person.
At Selene's comment Isabella smirked making it evident that she knew that she might recognize the name. "So even though you can't think of why you know the name you've heard of me," said Isabella in a cocky tone of voice. Isabella, like Selene, also acted as if there hadn't been a disturbance. Even if she had been living in San Francisco for two years her insticts were still demon like insticts as they always would be. That could be useful even if she turned out to be good. Except the kill first ask questions later but she had never gotten that habit down.

"You really think you're bothering me don't you?" she asked coolly, standing straight in contrast to the was Isabella was leaning against the wall. As soon as she realised what Isabella was trying to do she had changed her reactions entirely. She had felt good at seeing Isabella unnerved by it at first but she seemed to have gotten over the shock completely.
She shook her head. "I only remember the reason if it's an important name," she said shortly. What was the use, anyway, of remembering a name that wasn't all that big in the Underworld? She couldn't talk because while her mother had been feared it had been only by those who knew her or heard about her, and not a big enough name for it to get to the Halliwells until her mother had killed one of thier innocents about a century ago and only then was she added to the infamous Book of Shadows.
Apart from that Arya had never come up with them and nor had Selene until she had cursed Phoebe Halliwell's husband. You'd think after that she would be more recognised but since Coop hadn't been a Halliwell it was only noticed for the first week or so before dying down. Besides, what was the sense of attention she didn't deserve? She would only deserve it if she actually did kill a Halliwell which hadn't happened yet.

When Selene changed tracks again Isabella was a bit worried. She had underestimated Selene and that wasn't a smart thing to do. Not because of Selene herself but because if she underestimated Selene she'd be totally unprepared for a demon harder to control then Selene. Sure Isabella had talked herself out of getting killed earlier but if you couldn't keep that up then it didn't matter how much you talked.
What Selene said though made her smile. Not a mean smile of a cocky smile but just a smile since she was still thinking to herself. If Selene thought her previous comment was to bother her, when it wasn't, then she had more coming to her. Isabella took Selene's comment a compliment, actually, althugh most wouldn't.
"Actually, that time I wasn't trying to bother you," Isabella said and her smile grew into a smirk. At Selene's next comment Isabella shrugged simply. "Fair enough," Isabella said and then smirked. "Since I'll only remember important names as well and I hadn't heard of you until today. Actually, I'll probably forget all about after today as well."

Selene laughed at Isabella's last words. Something told her that time she had been trying to bother her but it hadn't worked. "You have a bad memory then? All the better for me," she said simply. Well if Isabella could not even remember someone like Selene then she was hopeless. Besides, Selene wasn't well known and she didn't care to be. That would only get the Charmed ones after her.

Isabella suspected that Selene think she was trying to bug her anyways but Isabella didn't care. Selene could think what she wanted, it wasn't of high importance to Isabella. When Selene made a comment about bad memory Isabella gave up. "Yeah, I have a bad memory," said Isabella in a bored, sarcastic tone of voice. "That's it. Plus, what is there to remember? That you're fake, self-centered, obnoxiously over-confident, wait...that's all demons! Don't worry, Selene, clones are easy to remember."
Selene would probably think that was to bug her too but honestly, Isabella didn't care. If she think Isabella needed to waste brain cells to think of insults, that were completely true from what Isabella could see, then that was Selene's problem.

Selene rolled her eyes. So what if most demons were like that? At least, unlike Isabella, they were evil. And Selene just happened to be one of the worst ones. "Good to know..." she said. "Can you leave now?" Isabella was, as she had stated before, wasting her time and Selene honestly did not need her around. She was all talk...talking herself out of Selene killing her, insulting Selene. She didn't even seemed to be powerful to make up for it. If she was she would have killed the demon that had told her not to come here in the first place.

"No," said Isabella in an emotionless voice. Isabella had to reason to leave. She had chosen to come down to the Underworld and walk this way and she wasn't going to let Selene change her path. That would just make her like all the other demons that jump to fill Selene's every desire because they feel their life is more important than their pride. To Isabella, both were pretty important. Plus, Isabella doubted she'd even come close to meeting death that afternoon. "If I bother you so much then you can leave but I was here first," said Isabella smirking at Selene for a second. Yes, Isabella did know how immature that sounded but Isabella knew she was actually pretty mature despite Selene's thoughts.

Selene laughed her naturally cold laugh as Isabella said that. Yet more proof how immature she is... Selene thought, shaking her head. How sad was that? It truly was pathetic the was Isabella was trying to be brave. Almost as if she thought she was better than Selene. Selene didn't think anyone was better than her. More powerful, yes, but not better. "Whatever."

Isabella raised an eyebrow at Selene but then shrugged and sit down her back against the wall. It made her smaller than she really was but Isabella didn't care, in her opinion only insecure people had to make themselves seem bigger all the time and Isabella was a lot of things but insecure wasn't one of them. Honestly, talking to Selene had gotten boring a long time ago and her laughing repeatedly was losing its touch. "For any chance are you trying to prove to me that you can stay here longer or something?" asked Isabella her eyebrow raised. Of-course, she wasn't serious but her face and tone of voice was completely convincing just how Selene's had been earlier and Isabella wasn't even trying. "Because you keep acting like I'm wasting your time yet you're still here. And to be quite honest, I enjoy your company as much as you enjoy mine."
