Guardians were coming from every direction, they all looked strong, ruff and mean but Edward and me could take them all. Me and Edward sat hand in hand, just watching. Belikov was giving instruction to the others; he seemed to be in charge. The strange girl came back... Rose, but this time she wasn't alone, there was another girl with her and she looked tiny compared to everyone ells... maybe she was one of these Mori thingies. They were setting up some kind of meeting place here. I looked at Edward and gave him a kind of 'what the hell is going on' look. He just nodded and explained that we were on trail. The guardians want to know if we can help with their strigoi problem, but if we can they want to know if were dangerous. I nodded it was only fair, we were as curious about them as they are about us. I inhaled and looked at Edward strangely, he did the same and picked up on it too.

"That one over there next to Rose is a Mori, here name is Lissa. She is what they know as a vampire"

Everyone was seated, even us. The trail was going to begin shortly. I decided that I was just going to keep my mouth shut and let Edward do the talking. As we sat in silence I began to grow impatient. I wanted answers, I wanted to know what they were. Usually being a vampire you can hold one position for ages but not right now, I was going mental with all the silence around me and the stares as if we were some kind of animal at a zoo. As I glanced around I caught the eye of Lissa. I smiled at her not revealing my fangs she did the same. I decided what the hell and did a half smile half laugh kind of thing and showed her my fangs, her smile grew too and she reviled some fangs as well. Rose scolded at me and I returned a smile. Lissa hit her and told her to behave.

"Ok are we going to start already this is driving me insane!" Rose said. Belikov looked at her and shook his head as if to say 'Rose you're out of line'. I didn't care if she was out of line, she was definitely right. I looked at Edward and rolled my eyes and he smiled at me then kissed me on the forehead. I looked back to where Lissa had been sitting but she was no longer there and neither was Rose. I turned around and standing right in front of me was Lissa.

"Hello" she said and I smiled at her again.

"Hello my name is Edward and this is Bella. It is very nice to meet you Lissa and Rose.

"How do you know my name she asked" I could tell that she was not frightened of us, just stunned.

Edward hesitated, but I didn't. "He can read your mind". Once again she looked at me and smiled.

"Can I try something?" she asked.

"What?" I replied.

"I am a spirit user I would like to ask you a few questions using compulsion"

I looked at Edward and he looked at me. We were both thinking what the hell. Edward told her that was fine but I said only if you use it on me. She looked confused.

"Remember I told you Edward can read mines, well I'm a blocker. Edward can't read my mind. I can also shield people, for example if you didn't want Edward in your head I could shield you and he wouldn't be able to get in. I'm curious to see if you'll be able to use compulsion on me. By the way what is compulsion?" Rose seemed to like the bit about blocking Edward from her head the best, but Lissa's curiosity just seemed to grow stronger. Around us everyone was silent and didn't dare to whisper.

"I can make you do whatever I want when I use compulsion. Every Mori has the ability to use it but because I am a spirit user I am a lot stronger at it than they are."

Edward didn't like the idea but I assured him it would be fine. His eyes were like a hawks watching it's prey. They watched Lissa so carefully I'm surprised she didn't think he was weird. When she began to speak she looked me strait in the eye and spoke confidently and clearly and said 'I want you to stand up and explain to everyone what you are and don't lie' I just smiled at her and she new immediately what I meant, it didn't work. She walked over to Edward. He obeyed without any trouble I was stunned and found myself unable to move. I stared dumb found at him and watched as he played out the whole; this is how were formed, this is what we can do, these are our powers, this is my family bla bla bla. The audience shared my expression. Then Lissa knelt down to sit next to me and as she did her skin brushed against mine and just like that I was no longer there, I was in an empty room. Flashbacks filled my head they showed me, my father and my... sister and a woman that seemed to be my mother. What? That last bit didn't make sense. The images disappeared and a mirror appeared in front on me. I looked at what was supposed to be my reflection but all I saw was... Lissa. Her face was identical to mine, stunned.

"What's happening" she asked I shook my head unable to speak. Then she appeared next to me. The flashback started again. We looked at each other again and in sync mumbled "why is there another baby and person in my photos. We stared deep into each other's eyes and then another image appeared in the room, this time it was a video. I was in my father's arms and the other baby in the other lady's arms. My dad and the other lady were having a conversation.

"What are we going to do dear?" my father asked the lady. She shook her head

"She's Dragomir and one day could be queen, but Bella is only human, that's the down side of having twins"

"We can't just abandon her"

"But the only way for her to stay at the academy as well, is if she becomes a feeder and I refuse to have my daughter become a drug addict"

"We should split up. You have experience in these kinds of things, I don't and I can take Bella and live in the human world somewhere dark."

The conversation could and probably would have gone on for much longer but me and Lissa both woke up in the infirmary. When we woke up we just starred at each other and everyone was silent, until she broke it "I won't a blood test" she said

"I can't" I replied

"We have to know the truth"

"Blood no longer pumps through my veins Lissa"

"We can get some of your human blood if you like, but may I ask why" Edward interrupted. We looked at each other and both said "No, but we need the blood"
