AN: I just got Last Sacrifice today and after finishing reading it, I can say I was disappointed at how the book ended. What can I say, I'm a Rose and Adrian fan. This is why I decided to write an Alternative Last Sacrifice. This is my second fanfiction. I hope you guys like it. Also disclaimer to Richelle Mead for the characters. I'm going to try not to copy exactly what Mead did in her book but if I slip up I'm sorry.
Summary: He was who I was meant for but I needed him. He was my perfect match. But I wanted him.
Chapter 1
...
Mobbed by some hobos would have been more interesting then what I saw in this cell. Stupid cell. I hated the fact that there was no entertainment around.
Stupid guards. I knew that they were there and I was pretty damn sure that they could hear my pleas to get some information.
There wasn't one freaking thing in this cell that was worth watching. I was bored. I was bored out of my damn mind. The only alternative source of entertainment for me was using the bond to get into Lissa's head.
I sighed and grasped the bond.
Same thing. Lissa was fighting for me being let out of the cell. She was protesting and arguing with the Moroi.
This had been going on for a long time. Every time I checked Lissa was doing the same thing. Fighting for me. Fighting for me while I sat in this stupid cell not being able to do a single thing.
I was trapped in this cell with no news what-so-ever. You'd think I'd at least have a clue on to what was going on in my trial.
But no. I had no clue. No one, not even my own friends had came to visit me to give me a clue. They were so busy trying to save me that they couldn't even come say hey.
I'm pretty sure that saying 'hey' was the least of their things to do but it sure would have been helpful.
I sighed once again as I slipped into Lissa's head again.
I was face to face with a pair of blue eyes. Christian.
"You're doing great Lissa. Don't worry, we'll figure it out. Rose will be fine." Christian said
"I don't know. This plan is crazy. What if it doesn't work? We'll all be caught and then there won't be anyone to help Rose." Lissa protested
Plan? What plan?
"Trust me. It will work." Christian empathized the last words
"But—"
Christian once again cut off Lissa. "They'll have no clue that we had anything to do with it."
"We're her friends. We'll be the first suspects." Lissa said while shaking her head
"Abe said he had it all figured out. All we need to do is lay low and attend Tatiana's funeral tomorrow without raising suspicion." Christian said.
Wait what about Abe? What were they planning to do?
"Should we let Rose know?" Lissa asked
Let Rose know about what? Ugh this was getting frustrating.
"No. Abe said to not tell her anything." Christian answered
Oh hell no. I was not going to be kept out of the loop.
"Fine." Lissa said unsurely. I knew she felt bad for keeping stuff from me but this was no excuse. I wanted to punch Christian so badly right now.
Did I mention I hate surprises or being caught off guard?
On my 8th birthday. I was convinced that someone was in my room. So I waited. I waited until that someone got closer and I attacked.
Turns out there was more than just that someone in my room. There were most of my friends and classmates. I guess they just wanted to wish me happy birthday.
Too bad the first girl, Jenna, ended up with cake all over her. She was surprised. Yeah for the first few seconds but then she got angry and grabbed the leftover cake and smashed it against my face.
Stan was the guardian who had to break up our fight. And let's just say he wasn't too damn pleased since he also got attacked with cake.
Yeah well anyways. I hate surprises.
I focused my attention back to Lissa. She and Christian were in Adrian's room. What? What the fuck was going on? Ugh these unanswered questions annoyed the hell out of me.
Apparently I had missed a lot since I had last checked up on Lissa. Damn it.
It only took a few minutes until Adrian came into the picture. And man did he make an entrance.
He was drunk. Actually that was an underestimate. He was totally wasted. He came stumbling into the room with a girl.
I could tell that Lissa and Christian were both caught off guard. Hell even I was caught off guard. I had expected the news about Tatiana dying to be really rough on him. But this was not a reaction I had expected.
Adrian was messing around with another girl when he was involved with me. It hurt. The thought of him moving on stung.
I couldn't believe it and it was obvious that Lissa and Christian were so shocked that they didn't even try to hide their surprised faces.
"What?" Adrian asked. I was surprised that Adrian could even talk with how wasted he looked.
"We wanted to talk to you about something. But we'll come back later as seeing you are busy." Christian said flatly while ushering Lissa to follow him out the door
But Lissa didn't move and this caused both Adrian and Christian to look at with a confused expression.
"How could you do this to Rose, Adrian?" Lissa asked
"What are talking about?" Adrian asked in return
I didn't want to hear it. I returned back to my own head.
I tried to forget about the Adrian incident and I tried to focus on my surroundings. There wasn't a single way I could get out of this cell. Even though I could only see a few guardians outside my cell, I was sure there was a countless amount of them in the hallway.
I needed to get out of this cell. No matter how hard I tried and fought. I could tell that there was no way I was getting out.
I know running away wouldn't be the brightest thing to do. After all I was fugitive and I was supposedly been Tatiana's 'murderer'.
Running away was just going to give more evidence to everyone in court who thought I was guilty and then they would think that for sure.
Yet I needed to get away from court. I needed to find Lissa's sibling and get some more information on Eric Dragomir.
I had to find a way out. I desperately wished that someone I could talk to would come visit me. On the other hand I was actually kind of glad that I hadn't told anyone yet. I didn't want them to get involved.
I knew my friends well. I know that they will do anything to protect me, even if that meant busting me out. I also knew that Court would blame and question. This could spoil any chances Lissa had of becoming queen.
We all needed Lissa to become Queen so she can represent the Council. But this was only possible if she was kept clear of all accusations and if I could find her sibling.
This meant that I had to figure this out myself.
Was it the best plan?
No.
Was I going to do it?
Hell yeah.
AN: Ok guys that was chapter 1. I'm really not sure if this is actually going to turn out but please Review and tell me what you think.
Should I continue?
