Zoey Pov.
We were all sitting around, lazing in the way that fledglings do at 7:30pm on a Saturday night, vampyre time. We all sat in the girls common room, watching "Sex and the city" with Damien and Jack, waiting for one of the dorm leaders to kick the guys out.
Then it all happened so fast.
Suddenly, Damien was on his knees, clutching his chest, not now I thought, why so close to him changing? But there was no blood, I breathed a sigh of relief, and told the twins to go get Neferet, Jack was on the floor, scared to death, not quite realising that Damien wasn't dying.
He's becoming a full adult vampire.
Everybody erupted in cheers and applause, and Neferet had come and taken Damien away. I didn't trust Neferet with Damien alone, so I followed silently.
They took him to a sealed off section, and using my cloaking abilities, covered myself so nobody noticed. We entered a silent room, and they started saying magical words I only picked up some of them.
"Damien Maslin, you have proven yourself to be worthy of the vampyre world. Nyx has blessed you, and believes you can pass on the vampyre-" she stopped mid sentence, and I noticed that she got a proper look at Damien's face for the first time. "this is so strange." She said, and I moved around to get a proper look, took in his face for the first time since the change. His vampyre marks had been completed. But they were odd, instead of the usual blue tattoos, his tattoos were the most beautiful yellow shade. Must be something to do with the fact that he has an affinity for air. Neferet took Damien I assumed to his room, but they walked into the infirmary. This confused me, until I heard Neferet say "Okay Damien, you need to stay in here until we explain to the rest of the house why your tattoos are different. You know this makes me wonder what Zoey and the other dark daughters will come out to look like. Don't worry you won't be in here long. I'll just call the others.
As soon as she walked out, I moved and sat down on the bed next to Damien. I took off my "cloak" and I swear that Damien jumped at least three feet in the air, and then to my utter surprise, he started sobbing. He held me and shook as he cried, five minutes later, he finally stopped and looked at me. "what's wrong?" I asked.
"I saw the way Neferet looked at me, I've become ugly. Haven't I?"
"no no, you're not ugly, it's just that your tattoos aren't the normal blue, they're a beautiful shade of yellow. Here" I showed him my compact mirror. He gasped once he got a good look at himself.
"This must be my affinity. I've been feeling weird, and my powers to change the wind have gotten much stronger. But I had no idea it would turn out like this, wow, Neferet must've been so scared and confused, but I bet not as scared and confused as I do right now."
"Why are you scared? You're absolutely amazing."
"But I feel like Nyx is talking to me, Like she's saying 'your time is coming you will have to prepare, there is darkness afoot.' And it's really scaring the crap out of me."
