Chapter 2

The car ride to the airport didn't take long, and soon we were sitting in the private jet I'd got Headmaster Kirova to let us use. That woman certainly was something; If you did your job and kept your mouth shut, she'd give you anything. If you didn't, well…

I walked onboard with the Princess, Guardian Smith behind me and Guardian Lucas next to Rose. There were many more Guardians inside the plane, though.

I'd seen the girls whispering to each other during the car ride, and there was something telling me that they weren't like every pair of best friends, these two girls shared something special, but I couldn't quite point out what…

"Don't let them talk to each other", I warned Guardian Lucas who sat next to Rose. "They only need 5 minutes together to think of a plan to escape." At that, Rose glared at me, despite in her eyes. Then, she got stubborn, because she knew I was right, and hated to admit it. It was so obvious.

Soon enough, we were flying. I liked flying. It made me feel free, as if I could go anywhere in the world. Back to Russia, for example. I missed my family by now, I hadn't seen them in years… I let my mind slightly wander away to the time I spent with them, knowing they girls couldn't in any way escape now.

After flying almost an hour, my mind drifted to Rose. I was… fascinated by her… Fascinated? No, that wasn't the word… Curious, maybe. Yes, that might be it. I was curious about her, about the way she was so protective of Lissa, even though she knew she had no chance, she still fought. Why? That's what I was curious about.

I got up, told Guardian Lucas that I'd like to speak to the girl, and he willingly switched seats with me. When I sat next to her, she turned her head, as if she all of a sudden was extremely interested in clouds… I sat quiet.

I was still curious about her, and at last I spoke.

"Were you really going to attack all of us?" She didn't answer. I spoke again. "Doing such a thing… protecting her like that… it was very brave", I became silent. Why was I struggling with finding the right words? "Stupid, but brave. Why did you try in the first place?" My words were true, I meant what I said.

She threw me a quick glance, stroke her long, dark hair out of her eyes to look straight in my eyes. "Because I'm her Guardian." Then she turned back to the window. Again.

She took this seriously. I could tell. I sat still and quiet, thinking about the way she had acted back at the street. She had done all in her power to protect her best friend. I saw the fighting spirit in her eyes. She probably would've died if it would save the Princess…

Again, I wondered why. Because it was her best friend? Because she felt an obligation towards the Moroi she was supposed to protect? Because – possibly – it was her nature? Protecting the defenseless? I didn't know.

After pondering these questions for a while, I stood up and went to the cockpit to speak to the pilots.

When we'd landed, the girls were escorted to our car, Guardian Smith driving. And with the way he drives, it wasn't a surprise it took us only a few minutes to arrive to the Academy.

When we got inside, the two girls got one Guardian each. Shortly after we'd came in though, Rose broke free and ran up to me.

"Hey, Comrade." Comrade? Where'd that come from, I silently wondered, but decided it was best not to ask. I didn't look at her when I answered.

"Oh, now you want to talk?"

"Are we going to Kirova?"

"Headmaster Kirova", I corrected. I personally didn't really care however the students – or Rose – called the teachers what they liked or not, but the Principal certainly did…

From the corner of my eye, I saw the Princess gave her a look. I wasn't sure what it meant, but it didn't seem to affect Rose very much, according to what she said.

"Headmaster. Sure. She's still an self-righteous old bi…" Her words trailed off, as we walked in to the big dining room. I shot a glare towards Smith as he turned around to look at the girls expression when they realized he was humiliating them in front of the entire school. The smile from his face quickly vanished when he saw my face…

We kept walking, and I shot a look towards each one of the girls, trying to read their facial expressions. Rose just smiled, superiorly. I didn't know if she really felt the way she acted, but she looked quite convenient. I looked at the Princess, and she didn't look quite as pleased as Rose. Actually, she almost seemed frightened. I felt sorry for her, and then I little angry towards Guardian Smith. Thank you very much…

When we'd reached the principal's office, I went to stand against the wall along with Alberta, the Captain of the Academy's Guardians. She was a good friend of mine, always fair and doing what she felt was right. It brought her respect from others.

I heard a dark, friendly voice from a corner. It was Prince Victor Dashkov, the Princess' uncle. Or well, something along those lines.

"Vaslilisa."

The girls had been seated, but the Princess quickly got up and ran up to him, hugging him.

"Uncle", she whispered. It sounded as if she was about to cry, again I felt a little sorry for her. She had not had it easy since a while. But then again, who has?

After a small talking between the Princess and her Uncle, Kirova ordered her back to her chair. I knew it was coming now. This was not going to be pleasant for the two. I didn't pay much attention, really, I was looking around the room, observing. I caught Rosemarie in my eyes. She didn't seem to listen either.

"You, miss Hathaway", the principal's voice suddenly rang. I couldn't help but to listen. So did Rose, I then realized. "You, broke our most holy promise: the Guardian's vow to protect Moroi. That's a big reliance. A reliance you broke by completely selfish taking the Princess away from here. Strigoi doesn't want anything more, than to erase the Dragomir family and you nearly gave them that possibility." Now, I thought, maybe that wasn't entirely true. We all knew there weren't many Strigoi in the area the girls had been, if there were any at all. And the Strigoi's biggest wish was probably not to kill the last Dragomir, I found it hard to believe that. Although, it was not my place to speak. At least not now.

The Princess opened her mouth before her best friend had the chance to. "Rose didn't cidnap me." Her voice was as calm as her face, but I thought she had to be upset. I believed her, after all. None of them would do that the other, I could tell. "I wanted to get away. Don't blame her."

Ms Kirova started pacing with her hands on her back, a little bend forward. She reminded of a hungry chicken… (Lol, no, Dimitri did not think that! I just kinda did when I first read it… Don't blame him;P)

"Miss Dragomir, it is very much possible that you staged this entire idea, but it was still her responsibility to make sure you did not complete it. If she had been doing her duty, she would have reported it. If she had been doing her duty she would have made sure you were safe." I had been watching Rose this entire time, seeing her grow angrier and angrier. I had been told to stay put, until she did something she shouldn't. Kirova had been sure that she would…

"I did do my duty!" Rose suddenly screamed. She jumped out of her chair, and winced. From the corner of my eye, I saw Alberta do the same. She didn't seem to hit someone, so we stayed against the wall. At least, she wouldn't hit someone right now.

Okay, so this is basically only the half chapter, I will be uploading the other part soon, I just thought I'd put this one up first:) review people! I need feedback to know whether to keep writing or not… thanks for reading:)
