Vampire academy
So this just popped up in my head today. It takes place in frostbite
The woman standing in front of my class was my mother. What the fuck was she doing here? Oh wait the nobles are here so they have their guardians with them and my mother so happened to be one of those god forsaken guardians. I looked around me to see that every student in the class was gapping as if they were trying to catch flies and it irritated me. I knew she must have seen me but her attention was otherwise occupied. She had on black jeans and a white t-shirt that was covered with the most boring jeans jacket I have ever seen. She was only five feet tall, so she looked dwarfed by the rest of the guardians. Our instructor who had the most fucked up attitude explained that they were going to share life experiences with us. blah blah blah I don't really give a shit. The old guy went first and said something about sunshine and a restaurant the story ended happily. When it was my mother's turn a scowl spread across my face before she even said a word, a scowl that grew worse when she started talking. I swear if I didn't believe that she was incapable of having an imagination for it- and her bad choice of clothing I would have thought she was lying. It was an epic fucking tale, the kind that gets made into movies. She talked about her charge lord szelsky, and his wife had attended a ball
Put on by another prominent royal family. Then she starts the bragging about how she found one of the strigoi that was stalking the party and she "alerted" the other guardians whatever. But what caught my attention was the fact that the class was in awe as she spoke. Mouths still hanging, eyes start bugging and not a sound could be heard. Typical. I appeared to be the only one to think she was talking utter bull shit. When she finished, a couple dozen hands shot up as the class prepped her for techniques, whether she was freaked, ect. After about the twelfth question, I couldn't help it I raised my hand. It took her a god damn while to notice and call on me. She seemed astonished to find me in this class, big whoop. " So guardian Hathaway," I said " has anyone ever died on your watch, cause it's not so nice to die.?" I asked she just glared at me. " What do you mean?" She asked through clenched teeth. I just smiled at her " I mean exactly what I said, has anyone ever died on your watch?" All the eyes in the room turned to me. My mother was momentarily at loss for words. "What is the point of your question?" she asked annoyed " Just answer the question." I said equally annoyed at her. All of a sudden I felt lissa's emotions get closer to me so I looked towards the door breaking my glare with my mother. Five seconds later I saw a gasping for air lissa in the door way looking straight at me. "Don't you even dare do that Rosemary." She said sternly. When she uses my first name you know she was serious. When I looked back at my mom she looked confused, matter of fact everyone looked confused.
