"I can see her."

"The girl who bleeds black."

"The lone wolf."

"Shhh..." "What will we do with her?"

"Aksasan. She's not one of us."

"She will be."

"She will fall...break."

"That's when we take control."

"Sh- she's waking up."

         A tall figure stood by the medal table, her white nurse dress stained in Crimson blood. Her long slender fingers holding a needle filled with a clear white liquid; her black hair fell midway to her back as she turned to face the table. The table which the girl laid...the swaying light blinding her as she moved her head, feeling the cold medal against her bare flesh.  Once her vision became clear the tall nurse looked down at her; snake yellow eyes locking with frightened brown ones, jumping slightly the girl struggled to get free. The black bands tying her down wrists and feet now digging into into her pale skin.

"Scarlet I presume. I am Doctor Moore." The nurse introduced. Pulling down the slightly bloody surgery mask to her neck; showing off her stitched smile burns running down the sides of it.

"Wh-where am I?" Scarlet stuttered. This only making Moore smirk.

"Can't say my dear. Not until master gives the order" Moore replied lowly. Pushing the needle into Scarlets forearm.

"...." Scarlet stayed silent.

"Cat have your tongue?" Moore quizzed. "It will...boost a few things. " She paused putting a shining scalpel besides Scarlets thigh.

"Wh-who's your master?" Scarlet said. Following Moore's movement.

"Aksasan. The strongest of us, the one who started this organization" Moore replied " we are simply her puppets dancing on a string"

"So she uses you;" scarlet inquired.

"No. We have traded our soul for immortality, and in trade we kill all she pleases dead"  Moore said. Taking off her gloves, throwing them away setting aside a sewing needle and thread.

"Thank you...Doctor. That's all for know, I need to talk to our honored guest" Aksasan spoke up. Her black cloak covering her face as she approached slowly; her heels clicking on the stained pavement.

"Yes master." Moore nodded. Leaving Scarlet with the
Arakonom  creature, Aksasan's multiple set of Crimson eyes followed Scarlet's ; as she traced her long black nail along Scarlets bare thigh. Slowly running it up to her hip where the scalpel laid.

"We knew you wouldn't come willingly" Aksasan whispered,into Scarlets ear. Her voice mixing as she did so. "William is never wrong"

With those words leaving her ruby lips she slipped the hood off, Scarlet studied Aksasan. How her cheekbones were highly defined and her chin pointed in a sharp edge; followed by her narrow eyes that lined up to her forehead. Scarlet gulped, her brown orbs widening when she saw multiple sets of arms come from under the cloak; the arms that seemed to be non-existent at first.

"What are you?" Scarlet said. Shaking her head not wanting to believe this was happening.

"well my dear, ever heard of the Arakonom" Aksasan chuckled. Scarlet once more shook her head.

"It's a rare kind of spider demon, I'm the last of my kind" Aksasan said. Smiling with her venomous fangs.

"Second. Stay still we have to mark you, the more you struggle the more it will hurt"

    Aksasan attached the thread to the small sharp needle, heating it by a freshly lit candle. As she lit it two of her hands gripped Scarlets thigh; dragging the needle in a downward motion deep into Scarlets flesh. Scarlet screamed in pain , tears welling up in her eyes; the only thing that she could remember was the blood leaving her body.
    Aksasan watched Scarlet slowly loose connection to the world around her, doing so licking blood off her fingernails.

"Mother. I found some information; she's something bigger than we expected"
