I do not own vampire academy or any of its characters
I am so, so sorry that it has taken me so long to Ud
School has totally screwed up my schedule
Here is a longish chapter to make it up to you
P.S. I got a 76% on my science test I had been studying for...Yay!!!
…that's really good for this teacher
Ok back to the story
Previous chapter cliff notes
Dr Oldenzki knows about them
Dimitri was talking to her about their relationship
Rose over heard
Rose ran away
Look and see what happened after she leftDimitri
This cant be happening
This cant be happening
This cant be happening
That was all that was going through my mind when she stepped out of the room.
"Is it true?" she asked us with a deadly calm in her voice. There was fear not only in her voice but also in her eyes. I could barley see it past the hate for me.
My heart broke for the thousandth time in two days. I didn't know what to say. In that silence she turned around and ran.
"Roza!" I yelled as I started to run after her but felt someone grab my wrist. I turned around to see Dr. Oldenzki with a worried look.
"Let her go" was all she said
"No" I almost growled at her "I need to see to it that she is okay" I said, trying to make her let me go
"No, She has a lot to think about now" she told me laconically
I sighed and walked to my Roza's prier room. I sat down on her bed and looked at Dr. Oldenzki. "I should have been more aware of my surroundings. I should have paid more attention. This is my entire fault. Why? Why didn't I pay more attention?" I was muttering half to myself and half to her.
"There are only two ways this can go now" she told me. My heart sped up with the fear that this could end badly "Either she still doesn't remember anything, and she tries to live her life with-or-without you. Or all of her memories can come flooding back at once and it can be hazardous to her health. I could do nothing at all or even put her into a coma" she told me
My eyes widened and i gasped. My stupidity could put my Roza into a coma. I was so stuck in my thoughts that I hadn't noticed that Dr. Oldenzki had left the room. What if she didn't want me once she did remember? What if she chose someone instead of me?
I felt a streak of warmth slide down my cheek, for the fist time that I could remember. The only thing that could ever make me feel this crappy was hurting my Roza.
I lie down on the bed and felt a few more tears. Her sent was all over the bed and was surrounding me.
I laid there for a few more minutes then decided that I needed to walk around. I went to the borders of the wards and decided to walk the perimeter while I thought.
What would I do if she left me for someone else? Could I live without her? She was my life so I doubted it. What if she started dating another novice to replace me? Or even worse... a Moroi. Could I live with that? Could I live without her?
"Ahhhhhhhh!" I heard from a distance
Before I could register anything, I was running. That was my Roza's voice and she sounded as if she was in danger. She was outside of the wards so I had to cross them get to her. I eventually arrived in a small clearing with a pond.
Next to the pond there was a figure that I suspected was a Strigoi. And under it was my Roza. The Strigoi's mouth was on her neck and Roza's eyes were closed. This was not a good sign.
"Leave her alone" I yelled at it
I jumped up and I was able to see that it was a male. He glared at me with red eyes of pure hatred as i ran forward to attack. He dodged my kick and I dodged his. We continued to fight then he started talking
"You're not the one I want. I will spare your life if your go back to the academy" he told me, I kicked him and he stumbled for a fraction of a second and I tackled him to the floor. I put my steak to his neck and heard him hiss I pain as the sharp point scratched into his neck
"Why do you want her" I asked
"He wants her" He hissed at me
"Who wants her?!?" I yelled at him, digging my steak half an inch farther into him
"Master says that she is valuable to us because of her bond and ability to fight" he told me
"What were you going to do with her?" I asked in Erie calm
"He told us to awaken her" he told me
"Well that's not going to happen" I said as I dug the steak into his chest and heard a small scream before his body went limp.
I turned around and saw my Roza lying on the ground, motionless. There was no movement and I couldn't see any breathing. I ran over to check on her and was relieved. I could see a small, almost unseen rise and fall of her chest. I picked her up and carried her into the wards to make sure that the Strigoi didn't have any friends around that wanted to finish the job.
Once I was inside the wards, I fell to the ground. My legs felt like they were non existent and my vision were blurred. I sat on the ground and laid her head on my lap and just looked at her. She's alive, My Roza's alive I chanted to myself. Her hair was still flung across her face and I couldn't see her. I slowly moved her hair away from her face and neck and gasped audibly.
I had seen bites before but seeing them on my Roza was different. There were two holes in her neck that were surrounded by bruises.
But that was not what had scared me. The thing that had scared me so bad, the sight that made me want to scream. There was blood on her mouth. It was not human blood. Nor was it dampher blood. This blood looked thick and was a deep red. I was not the bright crimson that we see in living things but almost black. The Strigoi's words rang through my mind.
He wanted us to awaken her
Wanted them to awaken her
To awaken her!!!
He had been close to succeeding. If I had not come he would have fulfilled his mission.
I picked her up and ran to the clinic. After briefly explain what had happened to her to the doctor on call, they put her into a room and put a bunch of IV's in her arm. I sat by her bed all night, hoping that I could have some peace but i never came.
There was only one question running through my head
Who had wanted to hurt my Roza?
After a while I decided that i had better talk to Alberta about the situation. I walked to her office and knocked on the door, then waited a few seconds before I heard her voice.
"Come in" she said laconically
I stepped inside and looked around quickly. There were no guardians hiding in the shadows like they usually were. They were all outside walking the perimeter, looking for any more Strigoi.
"Alberta" said with a 'hello' nod
"Guardian Belikov, please sit" she told me and gestured to the chair on the other side of the desk
I sat down willingly and waited for her to speak.
"Guardian Belikov, would you mind telling me why Miss Hathaway was outside of the wards and how you found her." she told me with a blank face
I took a deep breath before starting "I was talking to Rose this morning and she got mad about the fact that she couldn't remember anything and ran away. I decided that she needed some time to think and let her be. After half an hour she still hadn't returned and I decided to go out and look for her. I was walking around the border and saw her lying on the ground with a Strigoi on top of her, drinking form her" I told her. It took every last piece of my self control to not stand up and try to punch a hole in the wall.
"And what did you do after that?" she questioned. I had a felling that she knew that there was more to the story but she didn't want to push me.
"After that I attacked the Strigoi and killed it. Then I went over to Rose and looked over her. She was pale and motionless. I picked her up and moved her hair away from her neck to inspect the damage and it looked like a normal bite, but I also noticed that there was an almost black smudge of blood on her lips. Then I ran back to the clinic and got her checked out." I concluded my story just hoping that it was enough to get her off of my back.
She opened a folder that was sitting on her desk and started to write in it then after a while she stopped and looked at me.
"You may go now Guardian Belikov" She said
"Uh...Guardian Petrov there's actually something I wanted to tell you" I said
"Yes Belikov" she said.
"The strigoi that had attacked Rose...He told me that if I valued my life I should just leave them alone" I told her. And as I was hoping, she asked the question that I knew she would.
"But why would he just let you go and keep her? Why wouldn't he just kill you too?" she asked me
"I told him that I wouldn't leave and then I attacked him. When I pinned him to the floor I asked why he wanted her and he told me 'Master wants her because of her bond and ability to fight'" I felt my anger rise but I had to keep calm for my sake and Roza's.
"What was he going to do with her?" she asked me. Her worry was showing and she made no attempt to hide it
"Just like he said, he was going to awaken her" I said
She looked down and away from my eyes "Oh my, Rose" she mumbled to herself before looking back at me "What are we going to do?" she asked me
"I don't know" I told her honestly
"You are the one that she is closest to. Whenever something goes wrong she doesn't come to me like she used to, but instead she comes to you. There's something going on between you two but I'm just going to continue ignoring it. But if there is anyone that know what we can do it would probably be you" she concluded.
Wow had it been that obvious to everyone. Obviously it hadn't been that noticeable, otherwise i would be in prison and my Roza would be expelled.
"I just think that we should do everything we can to keep her in the wards and try not to give her any rules. She already breaks the ones that are set for the school, the last thing we need is twenty more to keep her safe." I told her. It was true. If we put more rules than there already were then she would just break them in a second.
"I agree I think--" she was cut of by her phone ringing
She answered it "Petrov...yes...okay well be there shortly" then she hung up and turned to me
"Rose is starting to wake up and I think we have a lot to tell her" she told me
"Yeah we do" I sighed and we started walking to the clinic
I'm really sorry that it has taken so long
This chapter took me 4 hours to write so I hope it makes it up to you
Please
Please
Please I'm begging you for ideas
If I don't get any I'm going to have to stop the story because I have no idea what to do
So please review and give ideas
(^.^)
