MareynBlood was shocked. "Aria." She said, barely concealing her confusion.

Aria looked so scared!!: she was pale and shivering, like a not toemato.

Every blood, dirt, all of DarkBlood looked on at the bloodless, amusement in their I'S.

Hyacinth was looking resigned. "Where is Sierra?" He sat still because he was tied to a lamppost.o

"Not here, she's eating lunch!" Screamed aria.

Sierra walked around the corner. "I heard my name" She said.

The Darkbloods looked at Sierra with their abyss i's, their haunting dark abyss i's of all colors, pale and dark, blue to gold to scarlet.

MareynBlood could tell what they were thinking. She thought the same. They wouldn't even be dirt, in the i's of the Darkbloods.

She suddenly heard a shriek.

"Mareyn! Come with me!" aria shouted.

"It's mareynBLOOD!" MareynBlood roared, forcing her i's to appear to look to be dark and overflowing with fury. "My only true friends died! You don't matter to me! None of you do! Sierra, Aria, Hyacinth, Weasel, you mean nothing to me anymore! You never did!" She lied like a lying liar. But a convincing liar.

The rest of the Darkbloods SNEERED. "Capture them!" Screamed DarkBlood.

MareynBlood stood unmoving, her face unmoving, watching unmoving as her friends were engulfed in the unmoving crowd and tied to separate lampposts. Hyacinth sat still the whole time, his sunset i's centuries old.

I'm sorry, she thought pleadingly. But thoughts could no no good. He would never be a DarkBlood. He would never hear her. I'm sorry...

Her friends were the only thing that took away from the DARKBLOOD INSITNCT.

MareynBlood wondered what would happen to PRISONERS. there was never a prisoner before now, she knew with the blood inn hermsoul. Where would tey be stored?

"SilverBlood, GyrBlood, and Artemise, go to the art room and get... supplies. Everyone else go to the band club room. Bring the prisonsers." DarkBlood commanded cooly. His eyes glowed.

MareynBlood knewe by instinct where the club room was, following the streams and waves of darkness to where darkness was strongest. She walked before all but Darkblood. DarkBlood smilled. She lugged the lamppost that Sierra was attached to. Sierra was slumped over, not struggling. Her face and eyes were an extreme tomato color.

As they neared the club room, she felt the darkness swell. A river of blood swept through her soul, leaking into her heart. She felt an immediate ecstasy in the dark. Now she knew, she knew why one would want to join the Darkbloods, to prove themself worthy of being one of the blood.

Mareynblood looked over to Darkblood. He smilled again. "This is the source of the dark river of blood. We must treat it with honor and dignity. Each time we visit we hold a ceremoni to honour our dark blood."

The group sent to go to the art room, SilverBlood, GyrBlood, and Artemise walked over with tools. They carried clay sculpting tools, scissors, staple removers, painters knives, and watercolors.

Mareynblood, ShadeBlood, GyrBlood, Shrike, RavenBlood and DarkBlood entered the room, it was dark and clean-smelling. Wolfblood was cleaning a Pickelo.

"Now!" Darkblood's voice was sharp and authoritative. He swept his arm to the side. "For the ceremony! MareynBlood, as the newest member, shall prove her loyalty to the Darkbloods."

MareynBlood felt a sharp pain! An empty, hollow ness. She felt the blood rush out of her soul and into her surroundings. Her blood flooded the room and her soul was suddenly exposed. She was struck with thoughts. What will happen to Sierra? Aria? Lykos? Hyacinth? And... and... coronet... Mareyn was about to cry and flee the room, but remembering darkblood's words, she knew she couldn't. DarkBlood needs me. All of the Darkbloods do. I have to survive this or after it will all be worse. She stood still in her place. Small tears dripped from he r i's, and she put a grimace on her face. DarkBlood seemed impressed and smilled a little bit. She's so strong and eeeeeeeeeeeeeedgy, he thought.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" screamed WolfBlood, and flew towards MareynBlood, holding a staple remover. She whipped to the side and blocked the stapel remover with her palm. Her palm bled with a shrop pain. She brought her other arm sweeping up under wolfblood elbow and it bent the wrong way. "AIIIEEEEEEEE!" MareynBlood crushes the staple remover under her heel in a display of emoness. A lock of navy blue hair coverede her i.

DarkBlood BLUSHED. But since he was emo he didnt look like a tomato. But mareynblood with her mazing people skills knew hee was bushinlg!!!

He swept his arm to the side silently! Mareynblood felt a rush of blood returning! She noticed the dirts and prisoners to the side. Though her soul was protected with blood, she still noticed hyacinths ancient, seeking, jaundice gold gaze. And it still pierced through the depths of her bloodie soul.

"Hail Mareynblood! With darkness strong and blood great!" All of them raised they're arms from there sides.

"Don't punish WolfBlood, Darkness," Mareynblood said mercilessly. "I will have some mercy" WolfBlood was slumped down in the corner.

"Are you sure?" DarkBlood said, his face expressing emotion unlike usual. Mareynblood nodded.

"This... bloodworm could be useful." DarkBlood sighed but only Mareynblood noticed.

"Of course... Mareynblood." He said his gaze flickering around. He ACUTELY BLUSGED! He looked more like a not tometto but still RED.

"Murmur" murmured the Darkbloods.

"Ok time to get you an instrumennt." DarkBlood said quickly.

Mareynblood looked around. There was a vast assortment of instruments, all black or scarlet or white. Her eyes fell on one instrument. It was black and made of midnight bone, a horseshoe shape with ten stark white strings attached. Each and every one of them emitted darkness greater than the rest of the room. The infinitely black bone had patterns carved into it, which captured the light, keeping it caged from the rest of the room. She could tell that it would be dangerous, yet powerful. And that it was played only by the greatest and strongest. She hoped she was worthy of it. She picked it up gingerly and the Darkbloods all concealed gasps.

"Are you sure? That one has an... interesting history." SilverBlood said quietly carefully.

"Interesting?" Mareynblood asked. Silverblood was the only Darkblood above her in rank, other than the Darkness.

SilverBlood glanced at DarkBlood for confirmation. He nodded gravely.

Darkblood started talking. "Well..."
