RPOV

I watched as Dimitri and the rest of the guardians retreated into the darkness. I didn't really have a plan for what to do next. I really hoped the rest of them did. I turned to them to see them all staring at me.

"What?" I gave them a confused look.

Mason was the one to speak up. "What do you mean what? What was said between you and Belikov?"

I smiled, wouldn't they like to know. "That's not your concern Mason." He in return just laughed at me and turned to the rest of the novices.

"Alright are teams one and two ready." He said and there was a collective nod from about 10 of the novices. "Good, get going." With that they took off out the back doors of the dorms. The rest of the novices including me stayed to get a plan going.

"Where are they going?" I asked Mason.

"One team is going to track the guardians and find out where they are stationing everything; the others are going to try and locate any guardians on their own and drown them in silly string and powdered sugar." He smirked.

"Nice. What is the plan for us then?" I asked as we made our way to the back of the dorms.

"Well, while you were out teasing your mentor, we were filling balloons with paint. I figured since you are a pro at climbing out the windows around here you might like to be our sniper." He knew me too well. It would be the best thing I would do all night. We only had until sun up to try and take all the guardians so we only had a few hours left. This was going to be one long night.

"Perfect. What are the rest of you going to do?" I looked at him confused.

"Most of us are going to try and pick off as many as we can one by one, a few will be with you."

At that moment my cell phone buzzed in my back pocket. I pulled it open to see a new text.

Times up Roza, I'm coming to get you.

"Shit" was my only response. Mason gave me a confused look.

"We need to move now, our time is up. Those with me to the third floor and out the commons room window up to the roof. NOW!" Me and about three other novices took off up the stairs to the third floor. Once there we took turns climbing out the window and on to the roof of the dorms. Hopefully from there we would have a good vantage point and take out a few guardians. Once on the roof I split us up into two groups. Me and April were going to try and get to another building without being caught. The other two were going to stay here and pick off as many guardians as they could.

"Alright you two cover us. We are going to try and get to the next building." I said to them as I turned towards the fire escape. They nodded in response and April and I made our way down the ladder to the ground. Once there we crept along the walls towards one of the other buildings. We reached the corner and I sent April first across the grass to the other end. She took off and luckily made it. I watched as she climbed the wall and made it to the top. Now it was my turn. Half way across the grass I felt the first hit. It really stung, I screamed out and felt my thigh, I lifted my hand off the spot where I had been hit and saw the pink paint on my fingers.

"I told you I was coming." His voice sounded from the shadows. I spun in his direction in time to see him come out from behind a tree. At the sight of him I did two things, shuddered with excitement and laughed out loud at his appearance. He was covered from head to two in powdered sugar. Everything was white. I couldn't help my next words.

"Dimitri, I think I'm seeing ghosts again." I was trying to keep my composure and not crack but it was taking everything I had not to break down. He instead gave me a slight smile and kept walking towards me and I in turn started to walk backwards, hoping to get close enough to the building with April on it that she could hit him and free me.

"Rose, it's not very smart of you to be out in the open all by yourself." He continued walking towards me and I continued walking back until my back it a wall.

"And what makes you think I am alone?" I gave him a smile and as much attitude as I could. At that second a blue balloon hit him on top of his head and rained blue paint all over him.

I could see in his eyes at that moment he was mad, still having a good time, but mad.

"Rose, you have 30 seconds." He was looking above him trying to pick off April.

"What do you mean…." His eyes caught mine and at that moment I knew I was toast. I took off as fast as I could into the woods hoping I could put enough distance between him and myself. I needed a hiding spot. There was a large bolder near the lake on campus and I was almost there. I reached the bolder and hid behind it trying to catch my breath. What I didn't know was that Dimitri had come up behind me ready to pounce. In an instant he grabbed me from behind and tossed me into the lake. When I came up for air, Dimitri was nowhere in sight. I spun as quickly as I could in the water trying to find him. That's when I felt hands on my waist. I let out a scream and tried to spin around only to have the hands clamp down on me not allowing me to move.

I felt his breath in my hair, his mouth just above my ear. "Roza, I think it is my turn."

Hey, sorry for the cliff hanger but if I were to keep going it would take me hours. I felt this was a good stopping point at least for tonight. Please Read and Review and keep the ideas for pranks coming, I really need them!!!!!!!! THANKS
