(I noticed that I never really specified ages and that is bothering me so from this point on. Rose is 5 about to be six. Dimitri is also six, as well as Wes. Sonja and Karolina are older than Dimitri but no more than 5 years. Viktoria is about two, and Tia is about four. She doesn't really know when her b-day is but Abe does and she doesn't know her age. Lissa is four and Andre is nine. Emil and Ash are both ten now but they haven't come into play yet….. I'm long winded sorry loves.)
Shadows began to grow as night loomed upon us. Wes drew closer to us and his eyes became solid rock. "Pavel, yes we are at the pond near the Belikov's. There are three of us. You have a new trainee; vamp. Be here shortly we are being tailed."
I didn't doubt daddy's intuition as I felt them myself. He began talking in Turkish and I stopped paying attention. A hand reached out towards Wes and before anyone else could react it was blasted backwards. Like ice being shattered into pieces. My breathing was a little rough the force I used. Wes looked up at me with dull amusement and daddy glanced at the "creature "coming towards us. He shook his head before sending it up in flames.
I decided to take a nap while we walked to the Belikov's. When I woke up Pavel was already with us and we were just crossing the threshold. Wes surveyed the room before moving closer us.
Daddy put me down please.
He set me down and I moved closer to Wes and clutched his hand to me. Yeva came to meet us along with Dimitri and Rose. Rose was glaring at Wes and Dimitri was surveying him as one would do a threat. Yeva merely smiled at him before giving him a welcome in Russian. Rose came up to us finally and tried to pry our hands apart. It hurt! Wes quickly pulled me closer to him and shielded me from my sister. "No!" he said clearly.
I buried my face in his chest and inhaled deeply to find calm. Rose withdrew her hand and Dimitri came up to her side. Daddy watched us with keen interest.
"Training starts tomorrow for both of you at five o'clock sharp tomorrow. It's already been discussed and you two will share a room. Dimitri, please show Wes to where you two will stay and Rose please show Tia where you two are located." she nodded but no one made a move to part us.
I drew away from Wes to frown at them before, reluctantly, following my sister. Wes and Dimitri trailed behind silently.
Rose apologized about my hand and i forgave her. We went to bed quickly. I woke up to banging noises and yelling. I followed the sound to see a man hitting Dimitri's mama. "Stop!" I yelled before ice hit him in the back of the head. Fire lashed out towards me but a wall of water blocked it. Both evaporated out of site.
My head turned to the sound of someone running down the stairs. I didn't notice him throw a knife in my direction until i heard a groan in pain. I turned back around only to see Wes slump to the ground with a knife sticking out of his chest. I fell to the floor with my hands out to him only to be picked up and thrown across the room. My head spun as it connected with the wall. I sat up to see the man towering over me ride to strike again.
Right before he could he started screaming and crying while clutching at his head. I glanced up to see Rose standing on the other side of the kitchen. Mrs. Belikova was trying to help Wes but nothing seemed to be working.
I used the distraction Rose gave to crawl towards Wes. Daddy and Pavel came storming in from outside just as I reached Wes. Dimitri and his sisters stood behind Rose; well they stood behind Rose while Dimitri stood in front of her. The man started saying rapid things in Russian and kicked out at me, nailing me in the stomach.
I lay gasping for a little bit before forcing myself to go on and get to Wes. Olena tried to keep me from touching him but I slapped her hands away before pulling the blade out. He had already gone unnaturally pale and nearly screamed at the new pain I had inflicted on him. I put my hands back on his chest and began the healing process. The man pushed me and Olena away, after gaining is bearings. He started beating on Wes all over again while Pavel came up behind him and yanked him back, locking him in handcuffs.
Daddy tried to pick me up but I wouldn't let him. Wes needed me right now. I felt his heart stop and a scream tore through my lips as I threw myself down beside him and put all the energy I had into bringing him back.
Darkness swam across my vision as exhaustion and spirit drove me under. Wes' eyes flickered open and locked on mine; that was the last thing I saw as I collapsed against him.
Rose pov
Dimitri picked me up off the ground, I had collapsed earlier after using too much spirit, and I watched as Tia's held fell onto Wes' chest. I tried to squirm away and get to my sister but Dimitri wasn't letting me go. Daddy tried to pick her up but Wes had wrapped his arms around her and wasn't letting go anytime soon.
Daddy shook his head and moved to interrogate the mean man with uncle. Dimitri and his sisters moved us into the living room. The girl's curled up on the couch with Wes and Tia in the midst of them. He was sitting against the back of the couch with Tia still in his arms.
"Father came back today" Sonja (Sonya) said with bitterness dripping off her words. Wes looked up at her blankly.
"He's your father two?" Sonja, Karolina, Dimitri and Viktoria nodded solemnly. "Guess that makes us family." That was all he said, but his eyes spoke legends; especially when they gazed down at my little sister.
Yeva came into the living room "Go back to bed everyone. Boys you have an early start tomorrow."
