Hello fellow writers, readers and anyone else. As you may have guessed this is another out take on Richelle Meads, Vampyre Academy. Sadly I do not own any of Ms. Meads characters. All credit goes to Ms. Mead and I'm grateful to be able to give my opinion on what might of happened after Last Sacrifice. Just a little bit of info on my out take, this story starts off when Rose wakes up, well sort of. I'll let you read to find out. All of Richelle Mead's work will be italicized for your pleasure and mine. (Its just a way of me honoring Ms. Mead.) I hope you all like my version and I do not mind reviews at all but please be kind. I promise to write back to any followers and I thank you for reading my story. Enjoy!
- Sincerely
Chapter 1; Time
Roses POV:
The last thing I remember is looking into Dimitri's and Lissa's eyes. I must be dead, that what's happened to me. I Rosemarie Hathaway, ex-guardian to the Vasilisa Dragomir am dead. Perfect way to die right, getting shot by one of your friends aunt's. Yeah I expected I would die by strigoi, but no, god or fate whatever it is wanted me to die from a bullet wound to my chest. If i'm dead then why does it hurt. I guess its like a side effect of death, I mean I was shot in the chest. No, but I can hear voices. Get a grip Rose, you're dead and you know it. I wish things would of been better between dimitri and I. I mean I love him and he had to see me die. He must be in the worse pain of his life, I mean he had just turned back and had to go across the united states just for us to find some illegitimate daughter of my bestfriends dead father. But we found her and brought her back only for me to be shot by Tasha Ozera, a.k.a Christian Ozera's aunt, Lissa's boyfriend. Im just glad Lissa now is able to become queen. Im starting to hear things again, well not things people. Abe. Shit he's going to be pissed. I can just hear him yelling at every guardian or moroi he can find to help me. Then theres Janine, or my mother, wonder if she's brewing up a storm as well. I mean I know I was never nice to her or abe but come on, my mother, the Janine Hathaway was never around and Old man barely came into my life when I nearly died saving Dimitri. I do feel like theres something missing, I mean I should've said goodbye to them as well. They deserve peace as well as anyone would if someone they knew had died. Im dead. Nothing can bring me back now, not even spirit. No offense to lissa and all for saving me the first time but spirit is a bitch and whoever says otherwise is an idiot. Ok the pains getting worse now. Is this it, am I finally going to heaven, or is it hell because I have done quite a few things that could get me into hell. Wherever I go, its fine, I fought for Lissa and im glad shes safe now. What was that? Oh hell no are those damn ghosts coming at me again.
"Sleeping Beauty awakens.'
Wait I know that voice its not a ghost, Dimitri. The light was getting brighter and brighter until finally I opened my eyes.
Dimitris POV:
Four days. That is how long my Roza had been asleep. The first ten minutes after Tasha shot her, the whole courtroom went into chaos. Lissa was holding onto rose until she was swept off her feet and taken to a safe room. I could hear Hans barking orders to everyone. I picked Roza up into my arms and looked to Hans.
" We need to get her to the hospital, NOW." He looked to me and nodded.
I took off without anyone following. I could see Janine and Zmey in the crowd trying to get to me but I had to take care of Rose first. I looked down once as I was running around court.
" Roza, please stay with me. Fight, I know you can."
I burst through the hospitals doors and was yelling for anyone. Finally a moroi doctor came around the corner. " Please she's been shot and she lost conscious about 10 minutes ago."The moroi grabbed a gurney and I placed her onto it and that was the last I saw her. Janine and Zmey had arrived a few minutes after me, yelling at me to tell them anything. I told them what the doctor had told me when I brought her in and then watched as their faces turn from panic to worry. I was pacing the halls outside the OR when Hans walked in with another guardian.
" Any news?" We all shook our heads no. He looked to me. " You've been given your guardian status back as well as Hathaway." Janine and Zmey looked just as shocked as I was. " When was this decided? I wasn't called back to court?"Hands looked to me. " It was decided an hour ago by Queen Vasilissa." I looked up in shock." The royal families have voted and they came to their decision. You and Rosemarie Hathaway were pardoned from your crimes and were given back your guardian status's." I smiled just a little bit bigger until Roza came back to the forefront of my thoughts.
There had been no news yet and we all were dreading the worst. I was sitting down finally and reading the western that was always in my pocket when a doctor came out. We all shot up from my seats. Janine was practically in the mans face."She's stable, she crashed a few times throughout the surgery but she's stable now. Were going to bring her up to the ICU and then we'll bring you in two at a time. Its going to be a long night." Abe and Janine followed the doctor as I sat back down. Roza was safe. She was going to make it. As soon as Abe and Janine left I saw Vasilissa , Christian Eddie, and Adrian running down the hall." How is she? Is she going to make it? I thought she was gone for sure until I heard someone saying they saw you running with her here. Is she ok, Dimitri?" I looked to them all. " She's fine. She made it through the surgery."
All of them exhaled whatever left of air they had in their lungs. Lissa started to cry. " She's on the ICU floor, Her father and Janine just went up their." Lissa, Christian and Eddie ran off not before Lissa gave me a hug."She's ok, She's a fighter, we know that." I nodded and let the young queen and her friends leave. I looked up to Adrian. He was leaning against the opposite wall and was staring down the hallway. " Just take care of her please. I know she loves you and you her, but please just take care of her." I nodded. " Thank you, for taking care of her when I couldn't." He nodded then walked down the hall.
I waited till Janine and Abe had left rose's room before I went in. She was so pale and she had almost a blueish color to her. I walked to the side of the bed and took her hand into mine. I smiled and kissed her forehead. "Roza, please come back to us. We need you and your smart mouth. I need you, I love you Roza. Always have and always will." I kissed her on the lips before sitting down in the chair next to the door. Watching her all night. I must of fell asleep sometime because Lissa came in and woke me up. " Your majesty, sorry." I shot out of the chair and bowed to her. " Please dont call me that. Technically i'm not queen yet." She walked to the side of the bed. " How is she doing?" I smiled. " She hasn't woken up, yet." She nodded.
" Im going to mover her to palace housing. This place is very grey. Rose would be annoyed if she woke up here." I nodded.
She looked to me. " Dont worry, from what i've heard from the doctors is that she will wake up in a few days." I nod. Nurses begin to unplug her heart monitors and transfer her to another gurney. Lissa and I follow them outside to an ambulance. Its a short journey to palace housing and then another fifteen minutes up the elevator and into the room that Lissa has graciously given to rose. I pull the chair in the corner of the bedroom to rose's left side of the bed. Lissa brings in a suitcase and then turns to me. " I'll check on you both later. If you need anything, please call me." I smile. " Thank you, your majesty." She groans but smiles on the way out. I turn back to Rose. " Just wake up my roza, I need to see your beautiful eyes." I kiss her hand.
