Chapter Two –

I fell backwards into the snow and began moving my arms and legs up and down.

"You are going to get you're clothes soaked, Roza," Dimitri chuckled.

I shrugged and continued to move my limbs in the snow.

"Rose.."

" Awww! Come on Comrade! Lighten up. Didn't you ever make a snow angel when you where young?" I asked

I grabbed Dimitri by the arm and pulled him down beside me. I showed him how to make snow angels with my arms and legs.

"Now start moving your arms and legs like I'm doing. That's it!"

Dimitri started to copy my movements to make a snow angel. I wished we could have stayed there forever in that moment –happy and laughing together. After we made our snow angels we took a moment to admire them in silence.

" Let's go" Dimka said

I sighed loudly then I turned towards my mentor and followed him back to the car. It was beginning to snow again and I watched more snow flakes falling softly towards the ground. I looked over the roof of the Honda at Dimka. I was worried about my forthcoming exam. If I failed it I was not only going to disappoint myself but it would be a big disappointment for him also.

I knew that Dimitri and I could never be together because our situation was extremely complicated. And the fact that he was my mentor and we where going to be guardians to Vasilisa Dragomir –Lissa made it even more complex. It wasn't just the age difference but if we where to protect Lissa then nothing else could be allowed to stand in the way of that.

The music that was now playing on the radio station was beginning to irritate me. I wondered why he insisted on always listening to eighties music.

" Video killed the radio star

Video killed the radio star

In my mind and in my car

We can't rewind we've gone too far"

"Comrade, you really need to start listening to different music or at least something a little more modern" I retorted.

"What is wrong with this song?" He asked.

"Do you really want me to answer that?" I asked

He looked at me and laughed. It was one of those rare times when he laughed like that and it made me smile. He turned the dial to a different station but that one was worse.

"Country Music? You have got to be kidding me, Comrade!"

"Pick one Rose. Its one or the other." He said with a smile.

"Ughh… go back to the 1980's stuff."

He flipped the dial just as another song came on. I wished someone would kill me. I crossed my arms across my chest and watched the snow falling steadily as I fought to keep my eyes open.

Just then there was a newsflash on the radio.

"Attention all listeners …the storm has taken a turn for the worse…."

Dimitri turned the volume up and we listened to the announcement without comment.

"….Please stay inside…heavy snow fall….."

"….may last…."

That was the end of the announcement. The radio died and we both looked at each other.

"Hmmm Comrade, should we turn back?"

"We're a little more than half way, Roza. It would make more sense to keep going"

"Besides, the storm hasn't hit us yet"

"Bu..but"

"Don't worry, we'll be fine." He cut in.

After that I stayed silent, slowly drifting in and out of sleep. I woke to see the weather had worsened dramatically. The sky had turned a dark greyish colour and the snow was falling thick and fast.

" We should have gone back"

"Hmm"

He sighed as he leaned forward to look at the road ahead. It was becoming increasingly evident that before long we would be stuck out here. My dream was about to turn into a nightmare.

I wiped the side window with my sleeve of my coat. The snow was falling so thickly on to the car and all around us. By now it was at least six inches deep. The wind was whirling it towards us.

The wipers, even on their fastest speed, couldn't keep the windscreen clear.

The accident happened suddenly, I felt the car skid and from the corner of my eye saw Dimitri struggling with the steering. I could see and feel him losing control. He began to panic, jerked the wheel hard to the left and slammed on the brakes.

I closed my eyes and prayed that we would get out of this safe and sound. I felt the car skid then flip over and over. A scream echoed in my ears as my head slammed against something hard.

I heard a crunching sound and then a sharp pain hit me. There was an explosion of glass and then the rolling stopped.

I slowly opened my eyes the pain shot straight up my body as I turned to look out the window. To my horror I realized we where no longer on the highway but tilting over the edge of a steep drop below. The car rocked forwards and backwards in a see saw like motion. I gasped as I realized that any sudden movement would send us plummeting to our death…

Ok, so what you guys think so far? I'll try to make the next chapter longer
