CHAPTER 11

"Lock the doors Lissa and don't come out. I mean it, don't. If something happens, drive. Go and get help." I jumped out of the car. There were about seven strogoi. I couldn't take them all but hell. I would try. I didn't run to them but I didn't walk. I made my pace but they just stood there.

"Rose Hathaway. So nice to meet you. Everyone knows about you, they think that you'll be the next big stongoi hunter." He took a step closer. "That's not going to happen because I'm going to stop you right here." He smiled, his sharp white teeth glistening. Since we didn't wait till day time to leave we had a few hours to handle this. This strogoi had dark brown hair and no shirt on. He was very muscular and his eyes were red like every other strogoi.

"You wish vermin." I spat back at him. He chuckled, so did the other six.

"Look little girl, you have to choices; one, give us the girl and you become one of us or we just kill you and forcefully take her. What one do you want?"

"Well, humans watch this show called Deal or No Deal. They can take the money or try for more and im going to try for more. No fucking deal, you little bastard." I gave an evil smile.

"We don't like potty mouths." He said and then they all came coming at me except the leader. I was ready to stand my ground and protect Lissa. They made a weird circle around me. I didn't know what to do.

But there was one rule I could never forget. Never hesitate. One came at me, I dodged his attack and found my opening but before I could get him another strogoi pulled me from behind. I was right up against him. I brought back my elbow and brought it back and it hit with a hard thud and I got my chance. I turned around and kneed him. Then I found another opening but I could sense one behind me and turned around and got him. He fell to the ground: I got him off guard.

I turned around to the other strogoi that I elbowed and kicked him in his face. He only flinched but I had another opening and took it. I slid the steak up and got him in the heart. He fell just like the other one. Four more to go. I was ready to turn and get the rest but I heard clapping. The strogoi were backing off.

"What? Too scared to fight?"I said making my voice sound tough. The leader chuckled.

"Marius, Get her." The big dark haired guy nodded and took a step forward; as I watched him I saw something move in the corner of my eye. I sensed him to my left and with outrageous spend I turned and staked him. He was tall and confused. He looked down at me and then the only thing holding him up was my steak. I kicked him and my stick came off.

"Well, I guess that didn't work, too bad. You're a quick girl but theres no need to fight cause you will die."

"Okay, but you'll die first, I promise you that." I smirked. And before I knew it he was right in front of my face.

"Stupid girl, your making my angry. You should have taken the first offer, you would have been a great awakened. You could have been second in charge after me." He turned around, he stopped right when I was ready to strike. "Don't even think about it little girl."

"Too late." He was turning around when I reached out got hit it. There was a huge scratch and blood was coming down like a waterfall.

"You stupid litt…"

"Stop talking." I said violently. "It's mine turn. I'm not little and I'm not stupid. I know what I'm doing."

"No you don't." he snickered. He reached out and pulled me up by the arm. I hurt bad. I forced myself not to scream. I heard something in my arm snap. I don't know what it was but it hurt like hell. "You are stupid but I like your courage a may give you a quick death but you did scratch me so no." the arm he was holding had my stake so I couldn't use it. He was squeezing my arm hard, my hand was turning dark purple. I couldn't help it, I dropped my stake and let out a scream.

"Finally you break. Good little girl."

"I told you, I'm not little." I growled. I pulled my leg back and swung. I hit him in the groin but he barely flinched. But that gave me enough time to get my knife I had under my dress and cut his arm. It was deep, very deep. He screamed but only because he was taken off guard. He dropped me to the ground and I picked up my steak. I was ready to get him but he was ready. He grabbed my hair and push me to the ground. He still had my hair so I couldn't do anything. Then I felt him pull. I screamed.

"Such pretty hair." I looked up and saw he had a chunk of hair in his hand.

"One more thing," I growled, "Don't ever, ever, mess with a girl's hair." I got up and kicked him three times. I found another opening and I was going to take it no matter what. I lounged and steaked him in the heart. I brought him close and whispered in to his ear.

"Told you so." Then I let him drop. I glanced up and saw the other three strogoi glaring at me but before I could get them. They were off running away. Something told me that they weren't scared but they had orders to leave. I could feel relief rushing into me from Lissa. She drove the car up to me and opened the door.

"Are you alright?" Lissa sighed and looked at me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just going to be a little sore tomorrow. But we better get going, they're going to wonder where we are at." I sighed. That took longer then what I thought it would. My phone started vibrating. Dimitri.

"Dimitri? What's wrong?"

"Adrian said you were going to be home soon. And he said that twenty five minutes ago. What happened?" he was half yelling at me.

"Look, calm down, stop yelling at me." I was mad, he had no right to yell at me, I did nothing wrong. "We got, held up. That's all I'll explain when we get back. Good bye Dimitri."

"Wait, Rose, are you okay?"

"Yes, Dimitri, I'm fine and Lissa is Fine. We got to go. See you later." I closed the phone. This is why I don't think that we will work out so well. He treats me like a two year old and yells at me for no reason. He probably thought that we hooked up with some guys and went off with them.

"Are you alright?" Lissa said, worry covered all over her words. I knew that she wasn't talking about my fight but the call.

"Yeah, but I'll be even better when we get back. I need to rest and I'm tired of wearing this dress." We both laughed.

It's a bit longer and i wrote fast so I hope it is okay and everyone likes it!!!!!
