I had to admit that he was a great fighter. But I was much better. I dodged one of his kicks, that was well executed, and spun around on the heel of my feet. He was holding back I could tell. I wanted to see the full extent of this guy's abilities so I decided to stop holding back myself. I pulled out all the stops and fought with almost everything I had, which trust me was A LOT, yet I could still tell he was holding back, Fine if you going to play unfair then I am going to take advantage of it. When he tried to throw another punch I ducked bellow his fist and quickly reached up with my right hand to grab his arm. One I had a firm grip on his arm I placed my left hand on his upper abdomen and used all of my upper body strength to lift him up over my head and threw him to the concrete ground. He landed with a loud thud I faintly heard a small groan in pain. This brought a smile to my face. He stood up on his feet quickly I had to praise him on his tolerance for pain. That last move should have kept him on his ass.

He stared at me, almost as if he was studying me. I had been given looks of astonishment before but never like this. It seemed like his gaze held some sort of adoration. It's like he-crack- I found myself on my back against the cold ground. DAMMIT I had let myself get distracted. That had never ever happened before. Dimitri, I think was his name, was firmly pinned on top of me I was in too much of a shock to struggle. I sat there frozen in thought. How did he distract me? Why did that happen? I was pulled out of my thoughts by lissa in my head. Do you want me to finish this? Snapping back to reality I quickly shook my head. I could handle this I knew I could. I began to struggle against him but the way he had me pinned mad it very difficult to move. He had one of my hands firmly in place at the left side of my face and my other hand was locked against my stomach. And as if that wasn't bad enough he had both of his legs pressed on mine, keeping them tightly in place.

After about a minute of so of viciously struggling against him, I felt the adrenaline from my previous fights beginning to ward off it became harder and harder to fight against him.

"Just give up. I'm not trying to hurt you but if I have to I will." His said. His voice was ragged and uneven. I could tell he was having difficulty keeping me down. Having no desire to continue I gave up and slowed doen a bit.

Can I help you now? Lissa's worried voice rang inside my head. Having exhausted all of my other plans to escape the situation, I just nodded in compliance to her question. I could practically feel her smirk as she advanced towards us. Once she was close enough she leaned over his right side and placed each hand on either side of Dimitri's abdomen she then cartwheeled herself over him. Once she landed on the other side she lifted Dimitri up off of me. I helped by placing my now unpinned feet on his stomach and kicking him upwards. lissa then threw him a good two feet away. Still on the ground I looked to my right to see he was still conscious. Damn this guys a fighter. With what strength I had left. I I sprang up of the ground and walked over to him. Grabbing him by the collar I lifted him up towards me until we were face to face. I could see the shock written pure across his face. It was most likely the only time he has ever seen a moroi fight like lissa before.

"I'm really sorry." I said to him just above a whisper. Before he could responded I pulled back my hand and punched him as hard as I could. Once I heard his now unconscious body fall to the ground I could only think of one thing. WHAT the hell was that guys face made out of steel?! I cradled my now severely bruised hand to my chest.

"You ok rose?" lissa said from behind me. Still holding my hand I turned to her and smiled.

Yeah im fine but damn some fight that was huh?" I said with excitement. I always loved to fight especially against someone who tested my boundaries. Lissa just shook he head and chuckled lightly to herself. She walked up to me and pulled her bright red disposable cell phone out of her powder pink Victoria secret jacket, And handed it to me.

Call Carson and tell him about…well…this. I go start uh.. healing them" she said the last part in a hushed tone as if to make sure no one would hear her. I quickly nodded my head and took it from her. I stared down at the phone for a very long time. I really did not want to make this call to Carson. He was my teacher he taught me and lissa everything we know now. And he didn't like it when I got injured. It wasn't really a pride thing it was more of a 'big over protective brother' type thing. He trained me and lissa to fight so well that we rarely ever got hurt. If I tell him that I was injured in this small fight he would verbally kill me! I hesitantly dialed Carson's number and put the phone to my right ear.

"Hello?" said a Scottish accented voice.

"Hey….Carson it's me-"

"Rose! Lissa already called me and told me everything. Good work by the way you are greatly improving from what I heard." He said excitedly.

Oh she did…and you not mad about my …um hand?" I asked

"Hand? What are you talking about lissa didn't menti-. Wait don't tell me. You got injured didn't you?" he didn't really ask that last part he kind of demanded it. Wait but he said lissa told him everything? Wait did she set me up. I whipped around only to see her smiling sweetly as she healed another guardian. I silently glared at her. She looked up at me and wiggled her fingers innocently then she got back to her work.

"You did didn't you damnit rose!" I sat down knowing that this was going to take a while.
