Hey everybody! I would like to present my third story, The Fifth Kind! It's going to be awesome, trust me!
The beginning is going to be a bit confusing, so hang in there! I'm going to explain everything soon!
In this story, Dimitri doesn't become a Strigoi. It takes off from when Rose and he were in the cabin gettin' it on! ;)

Chapter 1
Rose POV
"What the hell?" I whispered mostly to myself. I was in a state of confusion that everything around me was blurry.
Dimitri pressed his fingers to the side of her neck to find a pulse, "We need to get her to the infirmary. Her pulse is too slow to help her ourselves…" With that, he picked her up and we carried her through the forest towards the academy infirmary, "Roza, reach into my back pocket and get my cell phone. Tell Alberta that…"
An hour before…
"Roza. Wake up my Roza."
I felt Dimitri's soft lips on mine as I drifted away from sleep and back into reality. We were lying in bed at the cabin, and Dimitri was trying to wake me up.
"Mmmmmm…" I hugged his body closer and buried my head into the crook of his neck. I breathed in his intoxicating scent and opened my eyes to look up at the god in front of me. Under the sheets, our naked bodies were pressed together and legs were tangled. His hands were on my hips as he kissed up my neck.
"Time to wake up Roza. We've been out here for too long", his Russian accent was even more apparent than usual.
I smiled and pressed my lips against his, "I love you so much. You know that?"
"I love you too", Dimitri hugged me and stepped out from under the blanket to gather our clothes, "You have absolutely no idea how much I love you".
I giggled and stepped out too, "Everyone probably wants to know where we are."
"Agreed," he tossed me my underwear, bra, and clothes and I got dressed. It was interrupted every now and then with small kisses and lingering stares.
Right in the middle of a long, slow kiss, a loud beep beep beep cut us short. Dimitri muttered something in Russian and picked up his cell phone, "Guardian Belikov."
I smiled and rolled my eyes. So Formal.
I leaned back against the wall next to the bed and listened to what I could. The silence was filled with several okays and mmhhmms, and finally Dimitri hung up.
"We have a problem", he sighed and pulled on his light brown duster, "Alberta says we have a possible strigoi sighting out a little further into the woods. There's only one, so she said to just bring you with me for back up". I was surprised at this. I was going out to fight a Strigoi! The last time was Spokane, which brought back bad memories of Mason. I shuddered then forced myself to forget it for this moment.
"But I don't have a stake…" I crossed my arms, looked down, and drew circles on the ground with my foot. When I looked back up under the curtain of my hair, Dimitri had his hand reached out toward we with an extra stake in hand.
"You sure know how to get what you want Roza," he smirked at me and kissed me full on the lips, "Just be careful."
"Duh Comrade," I winked and pulled my sweatshirt over my head. I took the stake and shoved it into the front pocket and grabbed Dimitri's hand, "Let's do this".
We exited the cabin and made our way further into the woods, away from the school. Both Dimitri and I were on high alert for any oncoming dangers.
His cell phone beeped again and Dimitri picked up, "Guardian Belikov."
I could hear some faint talking on the other end of the line.
"No we haven't found the Strigoi."
More talking.
"What does she look like then?"
I kicked a rock over to the side of the path and crossed my arms. Dimitri hung up and shoved his phone back into his pocket, "Okay, Alberta said the Strigoi had curly brown hair and they're pretty sure it's female".
"Okay, cool beans," I scratched the back of my neck and kicked another rock, "Maybe we can start—". A loud groan cut me off and we both kicked into a fighting stance. Dimitri stepped in front of me to defend me of any threats.
We slowly and quietly walked a few steps before reaching to an abrupt halt. What we saw surprised both of us. A young girl a little younger than me was sprawled out behind a dead bush. She had brown, unruly hair and fair skin. Although it wasn't extremely pale skin like a Strigoi.
I must have hit her with the rock I kicked. Both Dimitri and I ran over and crouched down to look her over. Her eyes were half open, displaying dark blue eyes that wondered over both of us. Once she saw me, her eyes flew open, "It's—it's you". She struggled against Dimitri's hold but kept her eyes on me. She took one more breath and collapsed back against the dirty ground.
"What the hell?" I whispered mostly to myself. I was in a state of confusion that everything around me was blurry.
Dimitri pressed his fingers to the side of her neck to find a pulse, "We need to get her to the infirmary. Her pulse is too slow to help her ourselves…" With that, he picked her up and we carried her through the forest towards the academy infirmary, "Roza, reach into my back pocket and get my cell phone. Tell Alberta to meet us there."
My fingers fumbled and shook as I reached into his back pocket.
The phone rang once and Alberta answered, "Belikov. Did you find the Strigoi?"
"Alberta this is Rose. I think we found her, but she isn't strigoi, or moroi, or even dhampir…" I trailed off at the realization of my new discovery, "Meet us at the infirmary. We're bringing her there. She fainted and her pulse is really low…"
"Okay," Alberta finalized and hung up before any more could be said.
I shut the phone and thought more about what race this girl could possibly be…
"Dimitri, is she human?" I caught up to him and looked down at the girl in his arms.
"I don't think so…" he looked down then back up to me. He was just as confused as I was, "and why did she look so surprised to see you?"
I hope this was a good enough start to my story!
