I LOVE YOU GUYS ENOUGH THAT EVEN THO ONLY ONE PERSON REVEIWED ME I'M MAKING THIS CHAPTER.

I DO NOT OWN ANY VA CHARACTERS ONLY THE WONDERFUL RACHELLE MEAD DOES!

I pulled away from Dimitri and dashed toward the exit. I saw the red piercing eyes.

"Well, well, well; why it's the famous Rosemarie Hathaway. I thought the nausea thing was a myth; but clearly, to my luck, it's not," the cold menacing voice said.

"Who are you and how do you know so much about me?" I asked while taking out my stake.

"No need for a fight; I just want to talk. Maybe make a compromise with you. I'm a very powerful strigoi, Rosemarie. I can get any strigoi to do anything to my bidding." He said.

"What do you want and you didn't anwser my questions," I said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, i'm sorry. My name is Vikas Vick and I know so much about you because I have connections. My compromise is that if you can help me take out some group of strigoi; I'll tell every strigoi to back off on the queen and anyone else you want protecting." Vikas said.

"Are you on crack?" I asked with an incredable look on my face. He laughed this, "No I'm serious, I never knew that strigoi can get high. I mean It never crossed my mind that you guys can get high. Is there like some Strigoi catnip or something?" He laughed more.

"No I'm serious Rose," He replied. This time his voice was less, I don't know, cold more normal.

"Roza!" I turned around to see Dimitri calling to me with his stake in his hand.

"Tell him not to stake me and we'll continue this conversation," I nodded.

"Dimitri, put the stake away It's okay," I said.

"The hell it is!" He barked. I ran up to him and stopped him by kissing him. He relaxed immediatly. I wrapped my arms around his neck. I pulled away and looked into his brown beautiful eyes.

"Comrade settle down and maybe I'll repay you for it later," I said in my most seductive voice. He nodded and put his stake back into his belt.

"Thank you Rose," Vikas said, "Now back to our compromise. I'll be helping you with this job and you can have anybody come with you. Even your russian god can help. Or that girl you consider a little sister. Even the pyro freak Ozera! I don't care, I just need your help," He said. He took my hand and got on one knee. I glared at him. "Please Rose, I'll make sure the deed is done. No strigoi shall ever hurt Lissa or anyone else you love. I'll be in your debt for all eternity. You can turn me back into a Dhampire afterwards," He pleaded. I snatched hand away and back into Dimitri's arms.

"Let me think about it," I sighed.

"You're not seriously thinking about it are you, Rose?" Dimitri asked in pure shock.

"Yes I am," I sighed again, "I'll anything to protect Liss even risk my life Comrade." I turned to Vikas. "Alright Vikas I'm gonna think about it. Give me your cell phone number and I'll tell you later." He took out a sharpie and wrote his number on my hand.

"Thank you," He said before getting on his motorcycle, "Until next time Rose." He said while winking. He droce off down the street and with in seconds he was totally gone.

"That was weird," Dimitri said through gritted teeth.

"Yes it was Comrade; yes it was," I said while shaking my head. He pulled me into a loving embrace and held me. And at that moment I didn't care about anything. I guess things never change. Everything goes wrong when things start to get right.
