As I watched through the window of the small Portland flat that held Princess Vasilisa Dragomir and Rosemary Hathaway and once again wondered at how these two girls managed to escapee's from St. Vladimir's Academy and not to mention being on the run for the last two years
Quickly I checked the time it was around three in the morning ,Then out of nowhere there was a scream once I presume that came from the princess Rosemary shot out of bed and raced towards the princess and shook her awake and turned on the lap even though with there heightened sight I knew they didn't need it
Rosemary was short with dark long hair and dark eyes and Vasilisa had platinum blond hair and pale green eyes and was an average sized Moroi .
I quickly radioed the states of the girls and continued to watch the house intently
My mind seemed to go back two years to when they first disappeared, no one could believe it most had thought Rosemary had kidnapped Vasilisa but as I looked at the two girls I was certain that was not true Vasilisa had many chances to escape but she stayed she had obviously gone willingly.
Then my mind went to other things novices had said about how they we opposite's in every way and having read there files I could only agree because as far as I knew of the girls Rosemary was wild and disrespectful and Vasilisa was calm and thoughtful
But presently they were talking then Rosemary changed to a better position that exposed her neck I was surprised at first then I understood they were close as sisters and Rosemary was willing to be a blood donor to keep her friend healthy
It only lasted a second before Vasilisa pulled away and left the room with a worried glance at her friend
Just then a black cat jumped up on to the window sill and puffed up its fur as it sensed me. Rosemary then looked up and walked over towards the window peering out she scanned the area I knew she could likely see through the shadows surrounding me but I was to distracted by what I saw.
The pictures I had seen of Rosemary showed her as a young teenager but two years had obviously had changed her because now she was a beautiful young woman
Then as suddenly as the spell was cast it was gone because of the shocked look on her face I quickly stepped back a chaste myself about my thoughts just as she did the same and she ran out of the room
My attention then turned to guardian behind me "Belikov," he said , "the Hathaway girl and the Princess seem to be making plans to leave" I nodded and turned to leave " alright then let six of the guardians follow behind them and then three on each side of them there was a car about a block or two away I'll wait there for them" once I finished he nodded and left as I quickly ran ahead.
No less that five minutes later Vasilisa and Rosemary came running up the road. Rosemary was leaning slightly on Vasilisa probably still dizzy from the bite just as they neared they stepped up the pace obviously hearing the foot steps behind them.
I stepped out of the shadows and into there path, they came to a quick halt and Rosemary pulled Vasilisa behind her
"Leave her alone," Rosemarie growled at me. "Don't touch her."
I healed up my hands in a calming gesture and stepped forward "I'm not going to--" Rosemary quickly leapt at me she was using offensive maneuvers but unlike her I had finished my training and was faster Quickly, I blocked her, but i was harder than I had intended, and she started to fall backwards heading for the pavement at an odd angle that would hurt and as quickly as I had blocked her I reached out and fell, I caught and steadied her.
As I healed her I took one look at her and froze her neck was bleeding badly it was a wonder she had been able to run in this condition to even be able try and fight of a guardian noticing my star she raised her hand absent mindedly as she pulled it back she saw the blood and quickly shook her hair over it I stared at it for a second longer before moving my gaze to her face there was a look of defiance on it and she quickly glared at me and jerked out of my grip .
Rosemarie backed toward Vasilisa looking like she was getting ready to attack one of us or all of us that now surrounded her.
Vasilisa grabbed her hand. "Rose," she said quietly. "Don't." Rose hmm it suited her.
Rose stayed coiled and ready to attack for a second longer before sagging in defeated
Slightly confident that they wouldn't try anything I stepped forward and trued my attention to Vasilisa and bowed. "My name is Dimitri Belikov." My Russian Accent faint but still audible. "I've come to take you back to St. Vladimir's Academy, Princess."
