My heart stopped as did the rest of the world, the blond Strigoi, Nathan, I hated him, with a passion more intense that any I have ever felt in my life, my rose, my wonderful sweet strong rosa, she was so far away, I looked down, I had started running with my stake in my hand "retreat!" I heard Stan and Alberta say at once but I kept running, "ROSA!" I screamed as I saw Nathan sink his teeth in to her neck, I got jolted back I was being pulled back by about four guardians, among them were Janine Hathaway "belikov! We said retreat!" They started to pull harder, tring to get me to leave but I wouldn't, I saw my love being dragged in to the cave, I kept struggling against their hold "LET GO, ROSA! LET GO OF ME, ROSE!" Even the four of them could move me, the most the could do is hold me back "Janine! Rose is in there, your her mother you should be with me on this!" I was gritting it through my teeth but it was loud enough for everyone to hear "DIMITRI! She's dead, or worse!-" "NO she not!, let me go! , ROSA" I finally broke free and ran for the cave "Dimitri it's a suicide mission!" I just kept running, my eyes quickly adjusted to the dark and I scanned my surroundings, there were body's everywhere but none were my rosa, the thought of anything happening to her made me sick, my whole body was shaking from both from the fear for rose, the thought of her being taken from me after everything that happened and the anger I felt for the world, Janine just stood there watery eyed and walked away from her flesh and blood for the second time in Roses life, for that my respect crumbled and was replaced with hatred, I hated the women with all my heart.
I ran down the rocky path in the cave, searching for something, anything, then I heard a laugh, my breathing became Heavy and I ran faster, my hand so tight on my stake my hand turned purple "you think everyone loves you rose-Marie but no one does, no ones coming for you, they think your dead, right now they are all either walking away dry eyed or already home safe and sound, soon enough you'll be forgotten" I wanted to scream but she was alive and if I let my anger out in that moment she would be in danger, weak and helpless "no" she croaked out "no?" He sounded amused I had the overwhelming need to rip his amused Voice out of his throat, "no, Dimitri... Dimitri loves me, he will hunt you down and kill you" she sounded so powerful yet so weak, i started to creep behind him slowly in the shadows so no one saw or heard me, It was surprising he hadn't caught me yet, I guess he was a little preoccupied "really?... Because I didn't get that impression when I personally saw him being dragged off by four guardians and If I do remember correctly Janine Hathaway was one of them, do you really thing four of them could drag him off if he didn't want them to?" I saw a tear fall but she hastily put her guardian mask on "why me? What are you going to do?" I inched closer but froze when I heard him laugh "I'm going to turn you so that I can torture belikova, I would have turned you straight away but I saw all of your loved ones go so I decided to talk to you first" I got closer trying to calm by heart rate but he wasn't helping talking about torturing and turning rose "what did he do to you?" She sounded like she might faint, but I knew she wouldn't, she was my strong rosa, she would fight until her last breath.
I heard him growl a bit "Dimitri staked my wife when she went out for a feed, I saw him plunge it in to her chest, so I vowed from that day to kill everyone important to him, first i killed Lord Ivan Zeklos, now I'm turning you so he can be distracted while I take the royals" He killed my friend! My moroi! I looked down at my hand which was still tightly gripping my silver stake which had begun to dent from the pressure "why take the royals?" I new she wanted to sound threatening but she was to weak, she had a gash on the back of her head and two holes on her neck that made me shudder "once I'm feared I will have followers, I will go to baia and slaughter his family, and last of all him" I wanted to rip his head off, tear his limbs off and burn them, he had killed my friend and planed on doing the same to the people I love! I was so close I could reach out and touch him, I held my breath and didn't move as rose continued "your fucked up, you really think you could do that, Dimitri is ten times as strong as you, he'll kill you and I hope he makes it painful" she started shaking with hatred just as I was "sorry rosey but I don't like your attitude, I'm bored, any last words?" I wrapped my arm around him putting the tip of the stake in, he screamed in pain but it didn't kill him, and he couldn't move "ya" rosa whispered "your wife was probably a whore" she smiled a little "do svidaniya, vy chertovski mudak (goodbye you fucking asshole)" I plunged the stake in with all my might then ran to my Rosa's side, my hand rushed to her head to check for wounds, and I found them.
"Rosa, rosa sweetheart" I scooped her into my arms and started to run/hobble out, something must have hurt my leg while we were fighting the Strigoi "comrade?" She let out a small laugh "why have I got dayshavoo" I looked down to her and gave her a sad smile "what he said wasn't true, they held me back, but rose I would never leave, ever, remember what I said about protecting you, that will never change" I was still running as fast as I could to get my love safe "I love you Dimitri, forever" she started to close her eyes "ROSE, no keep your eyes open rosa stay with me for a little longer ok" I finally reached the gate which was un maned because almost all the guardians were either protecting the moroi or were at the fight, I ran in heading for lissa, the infirmary would be to filled and rosa needed help now "Dimitri?" She looked down at my waist "why is your stake bent" I just shook my head and said "he pissed me off" she laughed a little still struggling to keep her eyes open, I finally got there and bashed on the door "GO AWAY!" She was obviously crying, she must have been told about rose and me because she ran to the door when I yelled "lissa open the door before I tare it down!" I was being rude but I didn't care "guardian belikov! Is rose!-" she trailed off when she saw me and rose "princess please" I was shaking holding back tears "hay lis" her voice was so small "oh my god what happened to your head?"
I limped past lissa and put my beautiful rosa on the bed, I kneeled next to her running my hands through her hair "princess can you please... Can you heal her?" She nodded wiping her tears and walked over next to me putting her hands on Rose's head and neck, I saw rose smile "my two favorite people are with me hanging out with me what's to be so sad about" I loved that she tried to make us feel better but she was bleeding to death for god sake, I shook my head "rosa what am I going to do with you?" Her smile grew "I don't know but never stop saying that nickname" that made me smile a little "never" lissa took her hands off of rose and laughed "do you know what I told your mother rose?" Rose sat up slowly obviously having a head ache "that she had terrible mothering skills?" Lissa looked down "that she can go f herself and that I hoped she died the same way" rose put the biggest smile on and screamed "YES! I knew I could get you to swear, to be honest I didn't think I would have to die first but hay a wins a win" I laughed under my breath shaking my head "Dimitri your leg!" Rose saw I had a red bloody patch on my pants "rosa I'm fine, probably just a scratch" she shook her head and was on the floor in an instant to check my wounds "did you run on this?" She started rolling up my pant leg causing me to wince "really rose I'm fine, you don't have to-" rose cut me off "Dimitri I can see the bone! Your going to the infirmary now!" She quickly turned to lissa "no you healed me, I'm not letting you do that to your self, I'm not going to let both of you get hurt, I love you's to much" I smiled at rose, honestly I didn't care that lissa knew we were in love, she was a close friend of Rose's and everyone would know eventually "rose you know I love you but your over reacting" Lissa's mouth fell open as rose slapped my chest half heartedly "I'm allowed to worry, now get up off your ass before I drag you comrade" I rolled my eyes and she helped me up "rosa really, you should rest you were hurt, bad"
she pulled my head down and gave me a small kiss on the lips "not gunna happen" I sighed "go course not" she turned to see Lissa's expression and laughed "rose I knew you liked him but... WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME!" She helped me over to the door "lis it's a long story, to sum it up I was scared of what you would think, that end so far our relationship has been weird and hard to explain" I put my head down, I wasn't used to these conversations "we'll talk later ok" lissa nodded and before me and rose left I turned to lissa "princess" "lissa, call me lissa" I nodded "thank you, for everything" she smiled "my pleasure guardian-" I cut her off smiling "Dimitri, and lissa I have to talk to you about me being your guardian soon" she walked over and hugged me, I hesitated for a moment then hugged back "Dimitri it's fine" she leaned close to my ear "try getting Christian" she turned and hugged rose and shoed us out "I have to apologise to Christian, I'm horrible when I'm upset" I heard rose whisper "a men" under her breath and she helped me hop to the infirmary.
"rosa how's your head?" She glared at me "WHAT?" I was utterly confused "you have a chunk missing out of your leg and your asking if I'm alright?" I stopped and put a piece of her hair behind her ear "I almost lost you rose, you were dragged away from me unconscious and when I found you..." I felt my voice begin to crack "you were covered in blood rosa, I am always going to put you first" she put her hand on my cheek "your never going to lose me comrade, I'm to stubborn for that, but I do need you healthy ok, you need to be able to run so you can stop me when I rip my mothers head off, come on I gunna get a doctor to stitch you up" she rubbed little circles with her thumb on my cheek "I love you Dimitri and I always will no matter what because when I'm with you everything seems... I don't know how to describe it... It's just better so no matter what we stay together ok?" I answered by passionately kissing my rosa in the open and not caring one bit.
