Emi's POV

"This is really good." You mumble into the delicate teacup as Madame Aja rushes around her decently sized kitchen.

Her house held such strong scent of essential oils and incenses; it made your head fuzzy.

"Thank you." She pulls random vials out from a cupboard, looks them over, shakes her head, and puts it back. Her behavior is particular, erratic, but oddly enough, decisive and influential all at the same time.

Her presence holds such prominence, you almost feel too eager to follow. She turns her gaze back towards you, a small smile forming at the side of her lips.

She is wearing a long red gown, with her short blonde hair pinned off to the side, reminding you of the 1920's. Her eyes gleam that pretty-pink colour that all the Ashtaroth clan members have, while her makeup is dark and smouldering.

"I wonder what will become of you." Her sentence reminded you of how no one is able to read your future. "It must be weird for you, not to be able to see my future. Solaris had trouble with that."

Madame Aja tilts her head, looking to be lost in thought. "It is quite zhe nuisance."

You take another sip of your tea, able to feel the hot liquid warm your insides, "How did you know where I was if you can't use your foresight?" She looked at you as if you had asked a stupid question.

"I 'ave eyes everywhere, not just visions." It does not surprise you that she would have people watching the area. You eye her carefully from your peripherals, your opinion of her still undecided.

"Zee question I want answered is what 'appened?" you sit back, leaning against the chairs back.

"Oh, Rumor. He did this. I guess it was an impulse."  Madame Aja watches you carefully, "Oh, it was no impulse. Rumor, as childish as 'e is, never acts on a whim. 'E may appear to be an idiot, but zhere is more than 'e let's on." You take in the information she has given.

You had just assumed that Rumor had changed you on a split decision, but now that you think about it, he had been bothering you about it since you first met him, but you were sure he was joking, or at least, not serious.

"Changing a 'uman, into a Tchort, wit-out consent. I 'avent zee slightest idea what zis boy is up to. You are now in danger Emily; zee clans do not take zese situations lightly. It will most likely end in your death and zee death of anyone involved."

You give her a questioning glance, wondering why she would put herself into danger, "I do not agree with 'zis system', I believe it iz time for a change in our world. I believe you are zee change we need" she smiles devilishly, looking pleased with her decision.
