A human version of Vampire academy

Chapter 1 - Trying to run

I heard a deafening scream coming from beside me which startled me awake. I looked over to see Lissa thrashing around in her bed violently obviously having a nightmare. She continued screaming loudly. I swung my legs over the bed and ran over to where she was sleeping.

"Liss" I tried to shake her awake "Come on wake up"

"Andre" She continued sobbing "Mom, Dad" I felt almost helpless I knew what she was dreaming of and it tortured me to think of how she must be feeling and what my best friend has been threw.

"Lissa come on its OK you're not there" This time her eyes opened and she looked at me wide eyed, still sobbing. I looked into her green eyes and saw nothing but pain, confusion and sadness.

"It was so real Rose I felt like I was there again" She said while I sat down on her bed and held her in my arms trying to soothe her.

"I know Liss I know" I tried to reassure her "We are going to be fine as long as were together" I continued rubbing soothing circles on her back and allowed her time to cry it out. Hoping that I was in some way helping.

Nearly a year ago Lissa's parents, her brother Andre and me and her were in a car crash, somehow we both managed to survive her family however all died. They were like family to me I never had anyone else to look after me but they took me in. We promised each other we would always look after one another and no matter what we would stay together. That's why we made the decision to run away from St Vladimir's our boarding school. Lissa's family had a connection to royalty and I was chosen by her family to become her 'bodyguard', which meant constant training at school.

I enjoyed the training and vastly becoming one of the best fighters there. The school however had a bad influence on Liss the other royals would constantly pressure her into doing something she didn't want to and the school was to much of a reminder of her brother Andre who also went there. We both made the decision that starting new somewhere else would help us both. Right now were living in Montana, we went to a local community college and lived in a small flat with our room mate Jeremy.

"I'm going downstairs to make something to eat, want anything Rose?"

"No thanks"

Liss went downstairs and I walked over to the window where Jeremy's dog Oscar was sitting. He was looking curiously at something growling quietly. I looked out the window and into out front garden and had to strain my eyes to see what he was looking at, it was a tall man stood there in the dark slightly hidden behind a tree. He took a step backward and he was out of sight. I don't know why but I feared me or Liss were in danger.

I threw my shoes on and grabbed mine and Lissa's coat and ran downstairs to where she was eating a sandwich talking to Jeremy.

"Lissa" I hissed. She walked over to me leaving a confused Jeremy

"What is it Rose?" She always knew when something was wrong it was like we knew what one another were feeling.

"We have to go now!" I grabbed her hand and ran to the back door with her grabbing Jeremy's car keys on the way.

"Rose what's going on?" Liss said while running with me out the back door, Although she didn't know the reason for us running I knew we would always trust and follow one another.

"There was a man outside looking into our window, I don't know Liss!" I said frustrated "I just have this feeling that we had to get out of there"

She nodded and we continued running down the back streets. I knew Jeremy would go mad at us for stealing his car if we ever came back but this was an emergency, he also has always had a thing for Lissa so im sure she will be able to get us out of it. If we ever come back. Jeremy's car was in sight and we sped up. We just reached the car door when the man who was in our garden stepped in front of us blocking out entry to the car. I jerked lissa back and tried my hardest to glare at him. Now I got a good look at him I realised he was beautiful he looked to in his mid twenties and was quite tall, maybe six- six or six- seven. His hair was dark brown and reached his shoulders, his eyes were a deep brown almost the same as his hair colour, I nearly sighed you could get lost in those eyes. He was wearing dark blue jeans and a long black coat which looked like something out of a cowboy movie, a duster I think they were called.

I came back to reality disappointed that I'd been to momentarily stunned by his hotness to be aware of the situation a try and protect Liss. Now that I looked around there were 3 other well built men surrounding us.

"Don't touch her" I growled at them all.

However the hot guy I had first seen took a step forward and I quickly reacted attempting to take a swing at his face. He quickly blocked by pushing my hand away and I stumbled forward waiting for the pavement to come into contact with my face. I knew it would be very painful!

But there was no fall or pain!

I felt a spark of electricity around my waist stopping my fall. I looked down to see arms around my waist holding me up. I looked up to see who had helped and was shocked. The man I had just tried to attack was only inches away from my face staring at me with such an intensity that I felt like shying away. But I couldn't there was something stopping me from looking away from his eyes. His expression was guarded I momentarily saw concern flash threw his features but was soon returned with an emotionless mask. I heard somewhere clear there throat and he quickly set me up straight releasing his grip on me looking almost stunned by his own actions. He took another step forward, this time however I knew better than try to attack there was no way I could fight him of let alone the other men around us. He politely nodded his head in which could only be described as a sign of respect which left me momentarily confused until he introduced himself...

"I am Dimitri Belikov" His voice had a slight accent which I was almost certain was Russian. "And I have come to take you both back to St Vladimir's"

Thanks for reading, i will continue this story if asked to, so review and let me know if i should. I know the first chapter was similar to the Vampire academy one but i had to start it that way. Dont worry though everything else will be different but with the same kind of story line.
