Chapter 10: Rose's POV

After the long week that had folded out before us, Dimitri was skeptical about going to Siberia. I talked him into going, because what's the point in having plane fairs if you're not going to go right. Dimitri still didn't think it was a good idea because of what had happened with Valissa. She said she was fine and Christian stood beside her, now with his arms around her protectively.

Adrian had turned up. He was off in LA because he couldn't handle what was happening here. The reason his room was trashed was because he got angry with himself and decided violence would solve his problem. He ended up cutting his arms and hands in the end. That was all the blood everywhere. Mia was ok. Just a little run in with the black shadow. Eddie had protected her. She was fine now. Everyone was ok and sitting down on the floor of my dorm room.

"So. What are everyone's plans for the next couple of weeks while we are off in cold Siberia? Honestly, I must have been drunk when I chose to go to Siberia on holidays." I looked across at Dimitri and smiled. I must have had a sparkle in them because he tackled me to the ground and sat on me.

Someone coughed loudly. Cleared their throat actually by the sound of it. I looked across to see Lissa staring at me with the slightest smile on her face. She gestured towards Christian with her eyes. I glanced his way and saw him looking out the window innocently. "Yes." I said.

"Oh, uh. Nothing" He looked at me innocently. I rolled my eyes and continued talking.

"Ok, so first; we go to the airport and board to plane. We touch down on Moscow and take the train from there to Omsk and then drive the rest of the way to Baia. When we get to Baia, we will decide from there what to do ok."

Everyone nodded along. After long and torturous goodbyes, we said goodbye to the guardians, saying that we will be back in two weeks. With that we headed off to the airport.

It was hot when we got there. On the plane, I shifted uncomfortably in my seat.

"For god's sake Rose, sit still." Lissa complained.

"Sorry, I'm just smokin' hot." I held on to the word smokin and looked across to Dimitri.

"Haha." Christian laughed. "The only way you're going to be smokin' hot, is to be cremated." He had a smug look on his face, but a twinkle in his eye that said "I'm only teasing."

I took advantage of that and replied, "Well bring on the fire." Everybody laughed and we settled down in our seats, ready for whatever lay beyond us. Siberia, here we come.
