BANG!
She shot again and watched as the body guards holding Dimitri fell dead. She was shaking as she turned the gun to Duke who was shaking as Dimitri collapsed to the floor; the stake hit nothing but air.
She breathed through the blood that was now coming out of her nose and dripping out of her ears.
Everyone's eyes were on her, but she didn't dare look away from Duke. He didn't break eye with her either.
"Roza," She heard Dimitri whisper.
"Rose," was murmured around the room, they couldn't believe it, neither could she.
"Rose," Duke said, his voice shaking a little.
"Stay… away… from Dimitri…" She said breathless. He sucked in a deep breath. "Stay away from my friends…" She said through a tight voice.
She took in a deep voice, her voice was quivering.
"Duke, you're finished, put down the stake, and tell your men to let go of my family." She said.
He gave her a hard look, he didn't like when the roles were reversed and he was the puppet apparently.
Their anger was matched, only difference was Duke wanted a blood bath. Rose didn't, she wanted a fair clean fight. Killing the guards had been painful. They were like her, doing there duty, obeying there Moroi. This is what happens when you give Moroi so much power, she thought bitterly.
"Rose, what a surprise, death certainly has been kinder to you than others." Duke sneered, his face morphing into a face of absolute hatred.
"No, Death had been anything but kind, I'm just stronger than those others. Strength and survival, that's something we both know well though," She said gently.
Duke was taken aback at her proposition. She took a delicate step forward, her legs quivered as the weight of her body settled on them.
"We both have been wronged, Duke, we both have been hurt, we both have reached breaking point. I know it's painful, being scared, while no one realizes it. If you remember Lissa and I ran away and when we were caught, everyone was worried about Lissa. No one saw my pain and fear. Everyone just called me a fuck up, making promises and calling me a screw up. I did everything for Lissa yet they were going to expel me and get rid of me! I was saved, you weren't, and I'm sorry for that. You didn't' have someone like me to save you from the darkness, from spirit; you were in a harder time. But you can stop this! You've scared and hurt them like you were, their guilty. You've got a great revenge because they'll have to live with this fear. Like we are, like we did." She rushed.
"You can go home and rest in peace," she said softly.
"Duke held her stare, looked around the room, and then finally turned his cold hard eyes back to her.
"Rose, you've been in my head, I've seen inside your soul, we both know fear isn't enough. It' time for a new era, a time for the strong to beat the weak. I still have control here. You are nothing without a Moroi, you'd be no one, and the Queen see's that too. Join me. Let's kill them together, kill the past, a new future. Your right, about the Guardians age, let's change it to 21, make Moroi fight, work!"
She shook her head. It wasn't fair. Duke… he wasn't bad, he was troubled, a victim, he wasn't naturally a bad person, he needed help.
He was in that room like she was, Mason dead, anger sadness blame welling up inside, only one feeling rising above all.
Dimitri, her mom, Mia, they never came. He was alone with blame. She couldn't hurt him, it would be like hurting that Rose rocking Mason back and forth, ready to stand and protect him from any threat. That's what this was now. She had become protective, he had become vengeance. Right and wrong. It weighed her down.
She was suddenly back on that cliff, Dimitri or her… Lissa or Dimitri… Christian or Mason… run or hide.
"Rose, I'm sorry, we're both hurt by betrayal." In her moment of blindness Duke's words broke through her haze of what to do.
"Duke… I'm sorry for everything, but this isn't right… You… you need to go home, you need to go back to your life without me, go without hate. End this please! Don't make me choose." She begged.
"No! I make the choices and these people blind! Jeremy! End them." The wind wielder started choking everyone. Her friends, her parents, all her family, her beloved. They were all gasping and struggling for air, clawing at their throats.
Duke took her distress to jump her. They tumbled, rolling and fighting, the gun just out of his grasp. He stretched but cursed his lack of health and flexibility as she stretched her hand as far away from him she could get it.
Her stomach rolled with pain and her body tensed as she felt him adding pressure with his fingers.
A startled scream left her as he dug them in her. She screamed for the life of her as she tried to get away from the pain. No such luck.
She heard gurgling and knew they wouldn't last long. Through the pain he was focused on conflicting upon her, he did see as she focused her eyes on the air wielder.
"No!" Duke screamed as she saw what she was doing. But it was too late. Through the pain she shot, bullets went flying through the air, one went right through his head, she shot the gun until there was no more bullets.
Her family freed themselves and fought, the guardians realizing it was the end for them surrendered, accepting their fate.
"No!" Duke screamed outraged he'd lost. Pulling his stake back ready to finish her.
She had collected herself in those moments though, and got her own stake.
He plunged his stake forward, right into her bullet wound, she felt herself fading out now. But she wouldn't let him win.
"I'm sorry." She whispered.
Her stake plunged forward at that moment, right through the heart. The mark she'd memorized throughout her whole entire life. She knew she hadn't missed.
"My name is Rosemarie Hathaway; I lived and went to school at St. Vladimir's Academy where my parent's sent me so they could live their lives to the fullest. My best friend is and always will be Lissa, she's the only person I will ever go on hands and knees to serve as a Guardian for. I went to Russia to find myself and my lover, and to rebel. Because I am a rebel. I had to watch my lover die and I had to watch him come to life a different person. I fought every day for him and no one else. I am here because of him and no one else. I'm his Roza and he's my comrade. Your right, you are a king.
"You're the King of fucked up, but I always found those people, so I'm sorry, it seems to happen to everyone when they meet me. No one's ever been normal once they've met me. I'm sorry this had to happen. I asked you not to make me choose.
"You saved a withering Rose, savored its beauty, but all Roses have thorns. I'm sorry, but this is the sting." Rose pulled her stake out and held him, slowly rocking his dying body back and forth.
"I wanted you to live, you should have lived, but I killed you, and I'm so sorry, because I did this, all of this is my fault, and I'm sorry. Now please, finally rest in peace." She begged as his eyes became dull.
She lifted her aching hand and swiped his eyes closed.
"I murdered you, I'm so sorry, please, please, rest in peace. God please, just let him finally rest in peace!" She whispered sobbing before everything went dark.
