Hello again. College starts again soon and I need to study, but instead I wrote this. Actually I did it instead of sleeping since it's 4 in the mourning:)
The story belongs to me but VA and all the characters belong to Richelle Mead.
Sadly Lissa and me couldn't just walk into the Lady's bathroom, because currently we looked like males. Shit. When did this seem like a good idea?
We had to climb in trough the window, which was tricky because Lissa wasn't that sporty. After a few attempts that would have been hilarious if the situation wasn't so serious, eventually we got in. Mia and Meredith were already waiting. I think they have never been so happy to see us. Ah, I felt so loved.
"Never ever ask for shit like this again!" Mia hissed at us. "Yeah!" Meredith agreed. "This hole scope costed me like ten years of my life." "Exactly. At least if I wasn't getting a heart attack right on the spot!" Mia added.
I guess they had the right to be pissed, but they knew what they were getting themselves into when they agreed to help.
We all quickly changed back to our original forms and Lissa and me hurried out of the bathroom to go back to the conference room with all these snobby royals in it. I almost felt happy to see them. We were almost done and still alive and happy. I just hoped everything went smooth for Dimitri as well.
I was really really impressed that Lissa actually held a pretty good closing speech, thanking everybody, bla bla. I wasn't able to focus much since I was so worried about my russian god. I was waiting for hell to break loose any minute. I was almost relieved when it finally did.
Everybody froze when the alarm went off. Only seconds later guardians were storming into the room. Oh god they were coming for me. They faces showed they were ready to kill.
"Evacuate the Queen!" one guardian shouted at me. I blinked. Hä? Then it hit me that they were here to secure Lissa. I immediately kicked into guardian mode just like all her other guardians. They were shielding her while I fought our way to the door and shouted "Make room for the Queen!" all the time. When we were out of the door I heard the rest of the guardians take care of the royals. "Don't panic!" was the last thing I heard from the room. Easy thing for him to say.
We brought Lissa to her rooms were about a million guardians were already waiting. They would stay with her until it was made sure that Tasha Ozera, who managed to somehow out of prison somehow, wasn't in the building anymore, I was informed. Until then Lissa was practically a prisoner. That was irony! I itched to know what happened to Dimitri but didn't dare asking.
After what felt like internity Hans came and send them away. "I need to talk to you Majesty. There are some unpleasant things I need to inform you about. We were not able to catch Natasha Ozera. She probably managed to get out of Court." Oh that was good, wasn't it.
The look Hans shot me then made me think he could read thoughts. Did he look suspicious? Or was that just my paranoid imagination?
"We think that Lady Ozera probably had an accomplice inside the security system." He was shooting me another look. If I didn't know better I'd say he was nervous. Because of me?
"Also it seemed she took a hostage to get trough the gates. She made a fire cage around him and the gate-keepers threatened to burn them if we didn't obey her. She made the cages of the other guardian disappear as soon as she was out of reach."
"Other guardians?" I asked numbly. Oh dear God I hoped this wasn't what I thought.
"Yes." Hans was definitely uncomfortable. He looked at me almost...compassionate? On no. Please please please. No.
"Who is the hostage?" I asked, my voice too shrill. Hans sighed
"Guardian Belikov."
I like this chapter better than the last :)
What do you think? I tried a cliffhanger here, did you notice? ;) Hihi
