A/N-Okay, so this is where the HP stuff starts to come into play but the story is mostly focused on the relationship between Rose and Dimitri. Again, I own nothing.

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
Bring Me Back to Life- Evanescence

"I swear, if we get through this journey alive and dry, I am going to kill you Lissa!"

Eddie glanced amused at Mia who was currently fighting off a cobweb that had attached itself to his shoulder.

"Oooh! Was that a threat on her highness' life? Should I be worried, Mia?" Eddie teased. Mia scowled.

"Oh, shut up!" Eddie leaned over.

"Make me," he said, poking her stomach. Mia squealed and swatted his shoulder, causing Eddie to sway unsteadily on his horse.

"Knock it off you two! We're here for a reason. Even Rose would've been…" Lissa voice wavered and she stopped all together. Eddie rode up to match her pace as Dimitri held back slightly. Alberta was still ahead with Stan leading the group.

"We know" Eddie said putting his hand on Lissa's shoulder. The grief of losing Rose weighed on all of them as heavy as the dense fog they were currently struggling through. Shortly after the anger wore off, the true sense of loss set in. A month later, Eddie confessed his love for Mia and the two of them became a couple.

Adrian took her loss hard; getting dumped through a letter is never a nice way to break up. But he too found love when he met Sydney, the spirited young alchemist who knew Rose from Russia. She was away on her job but Adrian still missed her. Lissa and Dimitri never recovered. Lissa had Christian to help her through it, but while Christian felt the loss of a friend, Lissa lost the one person who knew herself better than anyone else ever would. Dimitri refused all offers of help. He became even more cut-off, convincing himself that he was the reason Rose had left. Nobody else knew what that letter had said but they knew it was bad. Very few things could bring Dimitri to tears.

"Shut up, we'll be spotted"

"Oh relax, we'll just Avada them and be on our way"

"Maybe, but don't you think the muggles will notice if a bunch of bodies appear dead with no cause visible"

"We'll just Avada them too"

"Oh yeah, cause that'll fix the problem"

"So! We'll kill the whole world if we need to. The point is we need to get this done. You got the portkey set up. I think we're done with this little detour."

"Yes. It'll suck anyone within 30 feet towards it and dump them off at their destination without setting off the caterwauling charm"

"Great! Let get outta here"

Crack

"Hey, guys? Is it just me or does something feel weird to you?" Adrian asked as his horse lurched again. Lissa looked back and laughed.

"Don't be stupid. There's nothing to be scared…" Lissa never got to finish her sentence. Her stomach gave a sudden jerk and she found herself flying through the air with everyone else. She landed in the mud, hand stuck to a necklace. She lifted her hand and the necklace came with it. After trying to shake it off in vain, she brought her other hand up and peeled it off her skin. It came away easily but was now stuck to her other hand. All around her, people were having the same issue.

"This is not good" was her last thought before her world blended away into a swirl of color.

Somewhere in the Russian woods…

"Ow… you couldn't have made the landing softer?"

"The pain was a lesson"

"Translation: I forgot to."

"Shut up and hand me the portkey"

"Wait…I thought you had it?"

"Nooo…you did"

"Awww, fu-dge. Yeah, fudge. That's what I said."

"We are soo screwed"
