Hey guys, you were all so nice that I just had to give you another chapter :D. Thanks again for all of you support!
(BTW I don't own any of the VA Characters, they belong to RICHELLE MEAD)
Rose's PoV
As he pulled away slowly, I leaned toward him, not wanting to loose the magic of the moment. I yanked myself away, hearing Lissa's panicked voice in my head, as I was sucked in.
"I swear! I don't know where she is right now." She was obviously scared; I could sense the fear through the bond. I glanced, using Lissa's eyes, around the room, trying to find a landmark. All I could tell was that she was in a classroom with a dying tree in the corner.
Dimitri's PoV
Her beautiful eyes started to focus again. "Dimitri! Lissa's scared, and she's taken!" The panic returned to those eyes and nearly caused her to rip herself out of my embrass.
I cupped my hands around her face, trying to keep her focused. "Where is she?"
"I don't know!" Her voice rose a few octaves, "All I know is that she is in a classroom, with a tree in the corner." I could see her eyes trying to remember which classrooms on campus had trees in them. I too thought of all the classrooms that I had been in. There was only one with a tree.
"I know where she is!" At this point Rose did yank away. She looked at me in shock.
"Then why the hell aren't we going!"
Rose's PoV
He grabbed my hand. Probably not even realizing that he had done so and dash out of the room, with me sprinting behind, to keep up. He wove his way so quickly though the halls that I had no idea where I was. I heard screaming from the end of the hallway. Normally I would have thought that it was just a couple of teenagers enjoying their weekend without teachers, but a quick check through the bond told me otherwise. As we neared the door, both Dimitri and I sped up, aware of how precious each second was.
He busted through the door like the badass god that he was, I had to remind myself that this was no time to fantasize.
Lissa's eyes had widened in surprise when she saw us, but then she shrank back in fear. I could sense someone bigger than me lurking in the shadows behind my back. As my attacker reached to grab my shoulders, I spun around, my fist already prepped for impact. I felt satisfaction as my fist connected with the threats jaw. I looked down at where he was laying, wondering if there was any necessity for further harm. But, my attacker was out cold already.
I ran over to where Dimitri was trying to help Lissa untie the knots that bound her to the chair she was in. As I bent down to help, I suddenly…
Dimitri's PoV
"Rose!" Lissa's voice made me look up from what I had been doing, Rose, my Roza was lying on the floor, pain etched in those beautiful features. Lissa looked at me, imploring me to help. I picked up Rose and grabbed Lissa's hand as we ran out of the room.
Rose's PoV
Pain…so much pain… I saw a light, and heard Adrian's voice. Rose? You there? Come on, little dhampir, you have to pull through. I heard Dimitri's voice. Roza! Please, Roza. I'm so sorry for what I said. I swear, I didn't know this would happen. Why would you do this to me? To Lissa? Even to Adrian and Christian! I felt his lips brush my forehead. I heard another voice, an angry voice. Lissa's voice.
"Adrian, you have to do something! I can't save her!" I wanted to comfort her, but she was so far away.
Dimitri's PoV
"Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep." The annoying sound of the heart monitor comforted me, it reminded me that she was still alive. I glanced over to where Adrian and Lissa were having an argument. I didn't bother myself to find out what it was about. "Beep. Beep. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep." Everyone in the room froze and stared at the monitor. There was no sign of life, just a flat line. Adrian and Lissa walked towards the hospital bed where Her body lay, lifeless.
"You can do this, Adrian." Lissa was comforting him, it was strange since seconds ago, they had been arguing. Adrian bent down as if to kiss my Roza. I leaned forward in my chair, ready to intervene if he did try to kiss her and stared in shock. He had placed both of this hands on her forehead and Lissa had both of her hands on his shoulders, as if supporting him. "Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep." I heard the monitor return to it's incessant beeping and then realized what that meant. Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
Mwahahaha! (evil author laugh) I'm sorry for giving you all a scare like that... Thoughts? Questions? Feel free to ask (or comment) away! My inbox is always open to suggestions (and reviews always boost my morale)
