Chapter two!

Dimitri had left me in a terrible mood. He'd given up on me, he'd given up on us and he ripped my soul and heart into a million pieces. My life was on the line and I couldn't care at this minute if someone put a stake to my hear because quite frankly I think the pain from that would be a damn site lot better than the pain I feel now.

"What's up Kiddo?"

I spun around to find Abe stood at the doors to the cell.

I gave him a heart wittedly smile and the replied "Oh you know how it is just peachy."

"Rose, really how are you? Have you eaten today"

"What happened to, you will not go to trail Abe?"

"I meant it Rose, you will not be going to trail."

"With all due respect Abe please don't make promises you can't keep,You as well as anyone know I'm as good as gone."

"No Rose. You are not I won't let that happen. It will not happen."

I slouched back onto the stupid hard cold bed that was next to the wall.

"Rose" I just stared at him "Tomas said you wanted to see me"

"Err." Did I? Oh yea the letter from the queen. How could I forget? Dimitri that's how.

"I have something but—but if I give it to you to read. You can't tell anyone it is strictly between us."

"That depends on whether it will help your case or not"

"I won't give it to you then" I spoke to quickly

"Rose if you have something that will get you off these charges then we need to use it. It's your life at stake Rose. This isn't a game! Now give it to me" He actually looked scary then but I am my father's child.

"No one Abe...No one must find out and if they do I swear you will never see or hear from me ever again" I knew I was stooping low by saying something like that but as few people should know as possible were the queens words besides whoever killed her wanted me dead and it could all be because of this illegitimate child Lissa's dad had. It could put Lissa in danger and there is no way on this earth am I going to allow that for one second.

"Very well Rose, give it to me, I will not tell anyone."

"Especially not Lissa" His face looked confused now "I need to know if it's right before I tell her. I need your help to find out if it is even true."

"Then give it to me and I'll go about finding out for you."

"Thank you Abe, I appreciate it." And with that I gave him the letter. His face was shocked then excitement took over.

"Rose this could change everything. It proves you—"

"Oh don't you even say it! You promised"

"I did and I will not tell anyone. I will however see if there is any truth to this. I will be back tomorrow Rose."

"I'm not going anywhere." I sarcastically chimed

"See you tomorrow Rose" and he turned to walk away

Who would have though the hearing had only been earlier today? It sempt like forever ago now and like I'd been her weeks but time goes so slow when your only limits are a small 5x5 cell with barely enough room to exercise.

It was hard for me to admit that the last place I would be seeing before I was taken to be killed would be this cell but I guess life knows how to hurt you time and time again. Well one thing was for sure Dimitri, my life knew how to hurt me time and time again.

"Food Hathaway." I turned to see Cole stood at the door with a tray of food "Take it back, I don't want it." I wasn't hungry I wouldn't eat it anyway probably because if I tried it would end up all over this cell and I for one can't stand the smell of sick.

Cole looked at me with pleading eyes "Rose" he spoke "Don't give up, You need to eat, you need to keep your strength up"

"I'm just not hungry, please take it back." And with that he shook his head and went back the way he'd come. I saw the disapproving look on his face but I just didn't care. Why should I? I was going to die soon anyway.

It was silent again so I decided instead of dwelling in self pity that I would actually visit Lissa what a big mistake I made.

She was stood with Dimitri, Adrian, Christian, Mia, Eddie, Janine and last but not least Abe.

What were they playing at.

"Abe" Lissa spoke "Do you think you could get permission for me to see her." My father looked at her and I knew that look he was going to say something to her that she wouldn't like "Lissa, I know she's your best friend and that you would do anything to just be close to her at this moment in time but I don't think seeing her like she is would be good for you".

"And why not? She's my best friend" His face looked hurt now and he looked as though he didn't want to say the next words but he did anyway "Because Lissa, She has given up. She wants to die. She doesn't want to be here anymore."

And how the hell did he know that, I didn't say anything to him that indicated any of it, so how on earth did he know. Yeah okay so that is how I feel but how..how did he know.

"That's not true" I felt Lissa getting angry at Abe's word and upset at the same time it was not good for her she didn't want to believe what Abe had said but part of here knew Abe wouldn't lie.

"She feels betrayed Lissa, hurt, alone. She's just not herself at the minute."

The darkness she was getting was getting worser so absorbed some of it which made me get a whole lot angrier.

"He's telling the truth Princess Dragomir, she wasn't right when I saw her before you came. It was like the fight in her had gone. Something has shattered her and she just can't get it back"

"You" Adrian screamed at Dimitri "You shattered her and you know it." Dimitri just hung his head like he knew it was the truth then Eddie spat out "She wouldn't give up, not the Rose I know, not the Rose that would fight heaven and earth for anything she believed in."

"I don't believe it either" Christian and Mia chimed at the same time. "I have to see her" Eddie spat out and started marching of. "You can't" Lissa spat out at him "I'm not important she's allowed to see me, it is you and Adrian that they will not allow to see her because of your families and status's" and with that he marched of to see me and within a split motion I was back in my own body screaming for one of the guards.

I was in no state to see anyone and I wasn't going to see anyone. I was going to stop them all coming. I didn't want them to see me I didn't want them to see me in the pit that I am in so there not getting to.

Cole came walking over to me "What is it Rose? What's the screaming about"

"Do not under any circumstances let anyone into see me but Abe got it" Cole looked at me with a confused expression but radioed it through his here piece to the main desk

I went and slouched back on the bed not expecting Cole to speak to me but he did "Rose why are you cutting everyone out they only want to help you."

I looked up at him and realised that he was one of the few guardians that really cared whether I lived or died, yeah the others believed my innocence but they couldn't care whether I lived or died only a few did and Cole was one of those.

"I don't want them to see me like this."

"Like what Rose"

"Weak, defenceless, Broken and shattered."

"Are you?"

"I've given up Cole. The royals want me dead so in the next few weeks I will be dead, what's the point in fighting it any longer. The sooner they take me the better."

"If that is how you feel Rose then you are not the Rosemarie Hathaway that I have heard so much about." And with that he walked off leaving me to my thoughts.

I heard Eddie screaming at the main entrance he wouldn't believe that I had deliberately asked to see no one but after a short while and bit of persuasion on some of the guardians behalf he walked away angry.

Cole approached then with a pen and some paper. "Rose we need you to write the names of those you do not want to see, include the ones that you don't want to see that may not be allowed now because they may be soon, just to let you know."

"Okay." I took the piece of paper and started writing the list with first name that came to mind

Dimitri Belikov

Eddie Castile

Mia Rinaldi

Vasilisa Dragomir

Janine Hathaway

Christian Ozera

Adrian Ivashkov

Tasha Ozera

I finished the list and then shouted Cole to take it back and he looked at the list nodded at me and then said "Very well, has you wish Miss Hathaway" I could tell by his expression that he certainly didn't agree with what I was doing but it was my choice not his.

Sitting in this cell made me think of Dimitri and the things to which he said to me. If he didn't believe I was going to get through this then I knew I wouldn't. If I couldn't be with him then did I really want to be here? No! I answered my own question. They can take me now and kill me I wouldn't care. The only thing that was bothering me about death was that I would die everyone believing me to be a traitor and a murderer something which I am not.

I went back into Lissa's head and by now they were back at Lissa's room but only three of them Adrian, Christian and Lissa. There was a loud bang at the door. Someone certainly was not happy no surprise for who that might be.

"Eddie" Christian said with a confused expression on his face. "What's up mate?"

"What's up is that me and Rose have been through everything together and she refuses to see me, in fact refuses to see anyone. I don't get why she is doing this. Why push us away. Why push the ones that want to help away"

"Eddie are you sure your right?" Christian asked puzzled. "They told me the only person she said she would see was Abe."

"I'm going to go check this out" Christian spoke. "Rose wouldn't push us all away not like this. We have been through too much together. I need to find out for myself."

"You won't get in" Eddie spat out "I've been friends with Rose all of my life I would die protecting her but she won't even see me"

"I'm coming" Lissa spat out at Christian "Me too" Adrian spoke. "Then I guess I'll try again too"

I came back to my own head then. Why were they so determined to see me? Why? They shouldn't want to be involved with an accused murderer. I didn't want them associating with me it would give them a bad reputation.

I went back into Lissa's head they were at the main reception by know. Cole looked at them with sad eyes and half of a sad smile. "I have been speaking to Rose. She doesn't want to see anyone. She has made her choice. I am sorry. No one but Abe will be allowed down. "But...But that is not fair" Lissa started and Cole cut her of "Look she told me she didn't want anyone to see her but Abe so I got her to write a list of those she didn't want to see, here this is a photocopy of the list, you may do good to take note of it. She doesn't want to see any off you."

I felt anger rise in Lissa as she read the List, "How—How could she put my name on it." She was getting angry and it wasn't good so I immediately started to absorb the blackness from her "Fine if that's what she wants, If she hates me that much then I don't want anything to do with her" and with that she stormed out of the reception to the prison bit and went storming over to a tree nearby where she broke down into tears.

I pulled myself from her then because I really didn't want to see her like that knowing I was the one to cause it.
