Hey Guys. Some of you might have read my other book, The Last Sacrifice. Well, I couldn't let these guys go, so here is Dimitri's POV:) Its short, So i'm very sorry.I own Nothing, sadly, but Enjoy:)

Chapter one

"Guardian Belikov, are you handling watch out at the window?" one of the other guardians on the mission to retrieve the two girls asked me. I nodded, trying to be as quiet as posssible incase they happened to be awake. I stepped ito the shadows where I could not be seen, but still see the window to the girls room.

Just having come here to the academy, I didn't know all the guardians yet. And altough I always kept a straight face and kept quiet, being here made me very uncomfortable. I wasn't used to guarding a school, or kids at that. I was more familiar guarding my assignment along with one or sometimes two other guardians. I used to have a charge, but while I was on relief...he was killed. So not a week ago, I was assigned at St. Vladimirs. The headmistress of the school told me to orginize a seach party for Princess Dragimor and her so-called delinquient friend, Rose Hathaway. I agreed, happy to be doing something other that patrol, and now we had easily tracked the girls to Portland. I was told that Valissa, being the last of the Royal line of Dragimors, had escaped with her friend, Rosemarie Hathaway who was a novice. Rosemarie had caused alot of trouble back at the academy, and I understood that she would be a handful. So here I stood, evaluating everthing and coming up with all sorts of plans incase our first one didn't work, when I heard a scream.

I stiffened at once, and tried to hear anything else. But even though I had sensitive hearing, it wasn't possible for me to hear what the Princess and the other girl was saying. After a few minutes, a light flickered on, and A cat apeared on the window sill, dissapeared, and came back again, and I wondered if it had seen me. But I couldn't focus on that long, I needed to close in the perimeter. I motioned my hand forward, and all the guardians took their places. Now we just had to wait.

As I watched the window, something happened. The dhampir, who I assumed was Rosemarie, showed her neck to the Princess. Then, surrising me, Valissa bent down and fed off of her. I wasn't disgusted like I should have been.I didn't think badly like i normaly would have. A horrible thought didn't even cross my mind. Instead I was rather thoughtful about Rosemarie, doing what she did to protect the Princess. She had to have a lot of dedication to Valissa, because all of the nasty things that would have been said about her if anyone every found out could ruin her. It made me want to smile at Rosemarie, but I kept a straight face, and waited until they moved about.

I didn't have to wait to long. The dhampir stumbled to the window. I took a step forward- a huge mistake. The girls gaze drifted towards me, and imediately jumped back. I had been spotted. I stepped back as well, and another guardian joined me. Time to start our first plan.

I ran to the parking lot, already knowing where they were going. And as the ran out of the dorm like I knew they would, they moved right where I wanted them. The guardians I had ordered to chase them to me were doing their job. I stepped out to be seen, and that much I was. The girls halted, knowing they had been outnumbered and surrounded. Rosemarie moved in as much of a protective stance as she could manage infront of Valissa, and practically growled,

"Leave her alone. Don't touch her." I surpressed a smile, knowing that she was in no state to make an attack. I put my hands out, as if I was surrendering, and took a step foward.

"I'm not going to-" but i couldn't get the words out of my mouth before she went at me. She was clumsy and i could tell she hadn't practiced any moves while on the run. I put my arm out to stop her, but Only i hit a little to hard. She started to fall in a twisted position, and I quickly decided not to let her fall, so I grabbed her arm and set her upright. I glanced at her to make sure she was alright and thats when I noticed her neck.

It had blood running down from the bite, and once she got what I was staring at, she shook her head so that her long hair covered it. Rosemarie jerked away from me,and I let her go. She looked as if she were to attack again but the Princess stoped her.

"Rose, don't." When Valissa spoke, that ws the first time I truely noticed her. There was something about her that was making me feel calm and centered. I knew there was something wrong when I seen how she was staring at Rose, her face lit up in concentration an energy.

I waited while Rose wavered for a moment, but she then sagged in defeat. I took this a my chance to state why was here, although i'm sure they already knew. After a bow directed towards the Princess, I said,

"I'm Dimitri Belikov. I've come to take you back to St. Vladimirs Academy, Princess."
