Rose Prov

I woke up, gasping for air. I felt my cheeks flush in depression as I remembered my chat with Adrian. I needed to get out of this god forsaken place. I looked around. My room was probably the best thing I had in my life now. I don't have my friends anymore since I'm dead! The love of my life... Dimitri has abandoned me to go with Tasha. The thought brought fresh tears to my eyes and I couldn't help but whimper.

What was going to happen to me? Am I going to die alone? Will I grow old in this place? I got out my phone and I rang Lissa. It rang several times before a voice came. It was Damon.

"I'm sorry it seems as if you have been trying to get in contact with people who aren't in this world, please call your mentor to ask about these rules or if he/she is not available, you can come speak to me. Goodbye."

What a bloody stupid answering machine! I rang Francesca. She picked up on the first ring.

"Rose, why the hell are you waking me up right now?"There was something odd and frantic about her voice. It was obvious she was in a hurry and she hadn't been asleep.

"What are you doing Francesca?"

"I was just asleep (she fake yawned)" The worry in her voice was contagious and I couldn't help but feel worried. I brushed that aside, thinking it must have been just a side effect of waking up at this time of night.

"Francesca, why the HELL have I been here for a month? It's been 4 days!"She didn't answer for a few minutes and I started to get worried.

"Hello are you there"

"Yeah I'm here Rose. (She paused) Err, do you wanna come over and I'll explain."

"Yeah yeah whatever, I'll be there."

"See ya"
"Bye" I said while trying to put some clothes on, hang up and find my keys.
I started walking to her house and I couldn't help but think something was strange. I knocked on the door. No one answered.

"Hello Francesca, are you there?" No answer.

I shuddered and waited. Maybe she couldn't hear me. As I was preparing to shout louder the door eerily opened on its own. I laughed and I couldn't stop thinking of a scary horror film when the door opens and you walk into your doom. I shook it off, knowing there was no reason to be scared. I went in and the sight before me was hideous.

Francesca was hanging on a rope, obviously dead and her insides had been cut open in a vigorous manner. Her cute brown eyes were staring into
nothingness. I gasped and I heard a deep sob behind me. I twirled around to find a man with brown hair and shockingly handsome looks. He was crying and was staring at me with wonder. I backed away silently as for all I knew this was the murderer.

He stared at me and then carried on sobbing. I noticed a knife by his hand and it looked as I he was straining to grasp it. I took on the bad-ass
Rose mode knowing he could strike any minute. I looked at him, watching every movement. It took a while but he finally picked up the knife and handed it to me.

"Just take it; I don't wanna look at it anymore." I grasped it awkwardly and I could feel the shock spreading on my face. Well that rules out killer then.

"Err?" I asked in question form.

"Hi, I'm Tyler." His voice was all choked and ragged. The name rang a bell.

"I'm from up there," he gestured to the sky "I was helping her escape, but she got caught before I could even get a chance."

"That's funny" I mumbled speaking for the first time.

"I got here just in time to see a guy with black hair sawing her up and killing her. He spotted me but he didn't do anything. He gave a name though. I think it was Demon, Devon, Doman."

"Damon" I stated simply.
