"There have been rumors" Magnus began "of the witch Alicia holding a vampire captive. As I said before your kind so rarely show up in our world now that it didn't cross my mind that the vampire she was bragging about having locked up could have been a Moroi"

"I really really hoped she was dead... Mostly" Sidney muttered. Adrian reached out a hand to stroke her back.

Magnus it turned out didn't know exactly were Alicia was stashing Jill, we all made a plan to meet back up at our town house tomorrow. Magnus was going to try his own special brand of magic to locate her makeshift prison. The others wanted to help because "New York is under the jurisdiction of the shadow hunters" as jade put it. Honestly I don't think any of us minded the extra weapons and warriors. After arranging our meeting we headed back for the night. The car was quiet with every one absorbed by their own thoughts, until a loud ding rang out.

"What's wrong?" Sidney asked Adrian.

"It's Nina. She wants to know if I'll try to help her connect with Olive, she seems really worried about her disappearing act" he replied.

"We still have a drive ahead of us traffic is horrible in this city" Dimitri told him.

Sidney frowned but nodded, and Adrian leaned his head back against the seat. He looked just like a sleeping man, but after 15 minuets he woke up spouting expletives. "Holy mother of st Vladimir himself, we need to go get Olive, and I mean now, she is only an hour north of the city."

"Adrian what the hell are you talking about?!" I yelled at him, thinking this was just a spirit thing. No such luck I guess.

"Rose, Dimitri she knows the two of you and me, we can take Syd with us, there is a commune an hour north of the city, olive needs us, she's pregnant."

That shut me up "but, I thought she was with Neil."

No reply.

My eyes got wide. No there was just no way... But Neil and Olive... Are just like us. Oh no.

I turned to look at Dimitri, his hands were pure white wrapped around the wheel.

"Are you sure?" I whispered

"Truth was in her aura... But, I won't know until the baby is born and I can see its aura my self"

"We'll drop the rest of you off, Eddie you're in charge, make sure it's secure, we'll call when we are close to being back"

"Roger" he replied.

5 minuets later Christian, Mia, and Eddie were headed up to bed and the rest of us were on our way out of the city, to retrieve another lost friend of ours. Millions of things kept running through my mind. Olive was pregnant by another Dhampir, something we had always been taught was an impossibility. We had never ever used protection, we didn't think we had to, and as active as I was it wasn't uncommon for me not to have a monthly visitor. It was making me physically ill with worry. We stopped at a gas station and I took Sidney in with me claiming we needed coffee and donuts. Four coffees two dozen donuts and a box of pregnancy tests later I was sitting in the bathroom waiting on that dreaded result. I didn't even know if I wanted to be a mother. Especially not right now.

And sure enough... Two dreaded lines. I just took pictures of them and threw them in the trash. There was no getting around it now. I was not going to say any thing to any one until after this mission was over. We needed to save olive and Jill both. But Sidney knew I had bought them. She raised an eyebrow at me as I walked out of the rest room, and in complete contrast to who I am I just hung my head. She put her arm around me.

"It's ok Rose. I got us both decaf." She said to me.

I couldn't help but laugh at her joke. It took some of the edge off.

"I'm not going to say any thing yet Syd." She frowned at me but nodded.

We got back to the car just as the gas pump finished. Sidney and I settled back in and we were on our way. By the time we were there I had finished a whole dozen of the donuts by my self, not that it was in any way unusual for me to eat a dozen donuts in one sitting. But the coffee was horrible.

"This coffee sucks Sydney." I grumbled.

She laughed in the back seat. "Sorry Rose."

"What's wrong with your coffee?" Asked Dimitri "mine is fine."

"Flavored creamer Sidney talked me into trying" I lied.

"Coffee is better black" he said back. He must have been really distracted not to catch my lie, but Adrian wasn't. I could hear his snickering from here.

"I wish I could see your aura right now" he said. "Auras are very telling"

Suddenly I felt a shocking cold all over my body, if he looked he would know, but Syd took care of it.

"And you'll do no suck thing, you need to conserve your energy, we have enough to worry about with out having to worry about a pair it episode too"

"Yes dear." He replied kissing her cheek.

"I never thought I would see the day where Adrian Ivaskov was whipped as hell." I snorted.

"Not the strangest thing to ever happen in our lives over the past two years though" Sidney said.

"Too true" I muttered.

45 minuets later we had finally arrived at the gps coordinates for the commune. Dimitri had spent time educating us on proper etiquette for our visit. Other than Baia, which was really more of a normal village. I never thought that I would ever enter a commune. Even to eschew a friend. I just never thought that it would be needed. Here's to a long day of impossibilities come to fruition.
