FINALLY, everyone was with the person that they loved.

RPOV

"Uhh, I hate to break up the happy reunion, but could one of you please unchain us?"

I broke away from my much needed kiss with Dimitri and looked over to where Hans was sitting with all the others still chained. Uh, I was sure that Adrian was out of his so why didn't he get the others out? I looked over to where he was and was about to ask him just that when I stopped myself. Adrian was currently deeply involved in a very passionate kiss with Sydney. After so long apart and because it was kind of my fault that she was taken in the first place, I decided to leave them be.

"Right, sorry Hans, I'll get right on that." I got up and walked over to him. To his credit, he didn't flinch as I reached around him to break the chains.

"Thanks." He didn't sound too happy, but to be fair, I did just convince him and everyone else in this room that I was just about to set off a bomb that would either kill or in-slave their entire race. So I guess that I wasn't really entitled to a warm reception.

"ROSE!" Lissa squealed at the top of her lungs. Well at least not from everyone.

"Get over here right now and break these chains so I can give you a hug." She demanded. I laughed to myself and did as she said.

"I missed you so much," she cried out as she threw her arms around me, "don't you ever do that to me again."

I couldn't help myself so I said, "Do what? Get kidnapped by Strigoi? Or plan to set of a biological weapon? Or put you all in chains? Or pretend to set of the bio bomb and really switch it with a biological weapon of my own making and make you all think it was the other one I set off? You know I just did so much this last month that it's a bit hard to keep track."

"All of that! You are never to do any of that ever again."

"So are we going to limit it to just bombs and Strigoi related things or can I get kidnapped and turned by other mystical creatures? I just want to know what all of my options are."

"Well it's clear that your time as a Strigoi hasn't altered your personality."

"Please, it never had a chance against my awesomeness."

She laughed as she let me go "You had better be careful Rose or-"

"My head will get so big that your spirit won't be able to reach all of me and I will be stuck as a Strigoi for the rest of my life? Yeah, I get that a lot. You people seriously need to get a new insult or something because that one is getting really old and fast."

"We'll work on it."

"In the mean time could you please do something about the rest of us here in chains?" asked Eddie with a big smile on his face.

"Sure thing Edwardo." And I walked around all of the people that my Strigoi minions had chained and broke them all.

"Rose," I turned around and saw my mother looking at me kind of closely. I think she wanted to come and give me a hug but didn't know if she should.

"Mum," I said quietly and that seemed to be all that she needed to hear. She got up and wrapped her arms tight around me in a bone crushing hug.

"I was so scared that I had lost you, don't you ever do that to me again." She all but growled at me. This time I didn't fell the need to answer back with a sarcastic response.

"Don't worry mum. My Strigoi days are behind me."

"Well not just yet. But give me a stake and a few minutes and I'll see what I can do." Lissa piped up with a stake in her hand and a smile on her face.

"You're the best Lissa."

"I do what I can."

"Can I get one of those too kiz?" I looked over and saw my dad with open arms.

"Sure thing dad." And I let go of mum and gave him a big hug, careful not to hurt him with my Strigoi strength.

"I got next!" I heard Eddie say from behind me. I really couldn't believe my luck. I thought than no one would even be able to look at me until I was turned back into a Dhampir. But here they all were fighting to give me hugs only minutes after finding out that I wasn't an evil Strigoi and that I wasn't planning to take over the world.

Some times, it's the little things in life that make it worth living.

After I had given everyone, even a one- armed hug to Christian, and told them how happy I was to be back, I decided to get the ball rolling on being turned back from a Strigoi. Let's face it, fangs are not my style.

"Hey Adrian, stop lip locking with Sydney and get over here, I need a favor." I called out having decided that I had been good enough already. "And how did you get out of your chains?"

"I've done my fair share of lock picking over the years. You always knew that I was a bad boy." He said with his classic devil may care smile.

"I thought that Lissa was going to restore you." Adrian said as he and Sydney came over hand in hand to where we were all standing.

"Oh she is, because as much as I like you, I would rather not go through the stage of being eternally grateful to you after you change me back. But you see I have this friend, and he is in need of your services."

"In other words, you want me to restore Ivan."

"Yes, you and I both got our happy endings so I think it's only fair that he has a chance of getting his too."

I looked over to were he and Violet seemed to be deep in conversation. I hoped that that was a good thing.

"Yeah, I would be more then happy to help him out for you. After all that's happened over the last couple of weeks, I think that we all deserve a happy ending."

"That's the spirit. Hey Ivan!" I shouted out to him. He turned and looked at me. "Get ready, it's almost show time." I could see the excitement in his eyes as he turned to talk to Violet. I think that was a good sign.

"Ok now hold on just a minute there Hathaway," Hans said as he came up to me, "now before the queen does her little magic trick and changes you back, I want to know a couple of things. First of all, why were you not an evil Strigoi and why were you pretending to be?"

"I already told you. Because I'm shadow kissed and have already came so close to death before that turning into a Strigoi didn't have the same effect on me."

"But wait a minute Rose," Lissa spoke up from the ground where she was charming the stake with spirit, "you're not shadow kissed anymore remember? After you got shot and almost died the bond was broken."

"Yeah, I realized that too and when Ivan first told me that he wanted my blood because I was shadow kissed, I thought that his plan wouldn't work. But when he said that he had my blood tested and it worked then I realized that I may no longer be shadow kissed and the bond may be broken, but being shadow kissed was still in my blood and was still a part of me. So that's why Ivan's plan could have worked and that's why I wasn't turned evil when I became a Strigoi.

"And I pretended to be evil so I could plan my own bomb, but mine would target all Strigoi DNA instead of Dhampirs and Moroi."

"Ok so that explains you, but what about Ivan? He used to be evil. Abe said he was even a mob boss or something." Hans continued.

"Yes, when he kidnapped me and turned me, he was as evil as your average Strigoi, but one night when Sydney and I were in the lab and doing experiments with my blood, he found us and attacked. He jumped at me and he got splashed with a rough mix of our bomb and he became his old self. Then we had a little heart to heart talk and he agreed to help me with my plan."

"And now you two are the only Strigoi left in the world?"

"Yes, even if they were in an air tight room or underwater there will still be enough toxin left in the air to kill them. Which is why Ivan and I can't leave this room until we are restored."

"And now you want the queen to change you back into a Dhampir again?"

"Really Hans, now your just embarrassing yourself, we all know that that's what I want. Why are you asking me all of these questions?"

"Oh this is nothing, wait until the media hears about this. You will be repeating this story over again so many times that you will be saying it in your sleep."

"Wonderful," I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Ok I'm all set to go." Lissa said as she go up. "Are you ready Rose?"

"More then you can imagine. Dimitri?" He was standing right next to me, unwilling to let me out if his sight. Mmm. I could get used to this.

"Yes my Roza?" His eyes lit up. What did I ever do to deserve someone who loved me so much?

"I know that as far as Strigois go, I'm very well behaved, but would you mind holding me still incase some survival instincts decides to surface and I dodge Lissa's stake?"

"Of course not Roza."

He took my hand and we walked a few meters away to give Lissa a running start. I stood facing Lissa and Dimitri came up behind me and grabbed both of my arms and put them up in the air. He then wrapped his arms around mine and brought his down so they met at my shoulder blades. This left me with both of my arms up and my chest completely exposed. He had me in a very tight hold so that even if I wanted to break free, I couldn't.

"Soon my Roza," He whispered in to my ear, "soon this will all be just a bad memory and we will be together forever. I love you, no matter what."

"That's all I want. A long life with you."

Ivan had come up and was noticing what we were doing.

"You had better pay attention Ivan, this is about to happen to you." He didn't look scared at all. I guess when you've been a walking monster for three years you stop being scared of anything.

"If it means that I can have a chance at having a life with Violet then bring it on." He said as he took her hand. YES! She wants him back! Could this day get any better?

"Are you ready Rose?"

Yes apparently it could.

"Yeah Liss, I'm ready."

She took a deep breath and ran straight at me. I closed my eyes and was preparing myself for pain.

But what I wasn't preparing myself for was the duck that was waddling around in front of me.

WHAT! Lol sorry I had to do something funny.

But the pain never came, instead I felt this wonderful heat, like slipping into a warm bath after being cold for far too long. I felt half asleep when I opened up my eyes and found a pair of deep brown eyes looking back into mine. I closed them again and heard

"Rose are you ok? Roza?" A sexy Russian voice was asking me, I could here the concern in his voice. But there was one thing that I was confused
about.

Who was Roza?

Oh what's that? You DONT want me to give Rose amnesia? Well them maybe if you all give me good reviews then I won't

Also I've gotten three yes's and one no on the M seen. If you want to have a say You need to tell me now because I need to start writing it.
