"Nice going genius," I shot suddenly turning on Adrian.

Jesse and six others of his group turned to each other in discussion, leaving four moroi behind us at a safe distance so we could whisper.

"Hey, my geniusness could only last for oh so long," he admitted shrugging.

"Point proven, how do we get out of this?" I asked gesturing around us.

"You're the dhampire shouldn't you be guarding me?"

"This is no time for lame humor. Help me think," I ordered giving my self a headache.

A headache! Mason! That's it! I just have to figure a way to summon Mason!

"I need to summon Mason," I said more to my self than Adrian.

He didn't shoot me 'wow she really is nuts look' or question what I was saying not believing in my ghost seeing all the way but keeping an open mind. Another Dimitri. He nodded once and said, "It only works when the wards are down."

It wasn't a question but I nodded in agreement. "How'd you know?"

"I looked it up. You'd be surprised what you could find in that library of your when you actually go there to study," he informed me.

"Liss told me that same thing once," I mumbled.

"Yeah well she was right. Its what I was on my way to tell you when…this happened. Thanks for the invite and warm welcome," he thanked sarcastically.

"Anytime dude. What else?"

"That was pretty much it," he said pursing his lips.

"Well, I figured that much out without a book!"

"Need you ruin my mojo? I was on a roll, little dhampire," he said in a cute, little boy like voice.

"You have magic, you'll always have mojo. Use said Magic mojo to get us some help and outta of here," I told him.

"I can't do all four elements at once, Rose Dear. With all this charm and good lucks even I'm not that powerful."

"No but what about spirit? Isn't that powerful enough to represent all four?"

"I wouldn't know. Never tried it before, but now is a nice time."

He shut his eyes in focus, concentrating hard. Perspiration appeared on his forehead, even on a cold day like this. While he was trying to use spirit I bent down to the girl at our fit and check her for a pulse.

I gasped.

She was dead.

"Bastard," I muttered under my breath towards Jesse. He didn't hear me but the moroi behind me grunted and nudged me with his foot to stand up. I shot him my most pissed off look taking him back for a second. He regained his composure and circled me closer with the other two beside him. I stood up from my crouch and patted Adrian on the shoulder.

"Forget about using spirit. She's dead and I need to kick their asses," I muttered gesturing towards them. He crouched down, trying to heal I guessed, but it was too late and he wasn't as powerful as Lissa was.

"Damn," he whispered. He looked as ticked as I'm sure I did right about now. "I'm with you all the way."
