(Two Days Later)

Rose and Jasmine's classmates were filling in bleachers on one side of the gym. Rose and Eddie found a clear spot near the middle. Eddie asked Rose have seen Jazz anywhere? Rose said No! Eddie said, I hope to arrive soon. I hope to get someone good to watch over. Rose said to me too. Eddie asked Rose. Do you think that Jasmine would go out with me? Rose looked at Eddie, and said, I don't see why not. I think both would be a cute couple. Eddie said before I forget that Dimitri would like to us later. Saying it was really important. Rose looked at Eddie and thought to herself what did Dimitri want to talk about.

Dimitri, standing there with the other guardians by the front doors and chatting about what was going to happen in the next six weeks with novices students. When the doors open Alberta, Damon, and Jasmine arrived at the gym together. The other guardians were full surprised to see one of the twins standing behind Alberta in full dress in a guardian suit. Dimitri finds Jasmine looked right wearing it.

When Stan Alto walked up to Alberta asked why one of the twins dressed like a guardian? Alberta said Jasmine has already been through this program. Jasmine will help us to teach other novices. Stan asked where did she already go through the program at? Alberta said St. Basil's Academy in Russia. Stan looked at Jasmine, and let me hope Alberta didn't make a mistake. Jasmine just looked Stan in the eyes. Didn't give him any emotion or speak a word to Stan.

Stan said Jasmine, already acting like a guardian. Stan gets in Jasmine's face started yelling at Jasmine about math homework. Jasmine took a step back away from Stan. When Stan steps closer to Jasmine. Jasmine grabbed and slammed on the ground. Put her knee on his neck. Saying in a calm voice, you will not yell at any other student or spit in their face again. Is that understood? Stan said yes. Alberta said, Congratulations! Jasmine. You have passed one of your tests. It shows that you can handle yourself. The other guardians were surprised how fast Jasmine took out Stan. Jasmine stood up and looked down at Stan. Stan could see Jasmine's eyes were gold color again. Stan sitting up and thought to himself that Jasmine was different from other students at the academy. Soon he would found out what what it was.

The other guardians couldn't believe how fast Jasmine moved and took Stan down. Dimitri was so proud of Jasmine. Jasmine looked up at Dimitri with golden eyes and started slowly counting to herself. Dimitri moved to Jasmine's side and moved her way from Stan. Telling keeps calm and slowly count herself. Alberta was proud of Jasmine. Alberta talked few other guardians describe to them what was going to happen.

Damon asks Jasmine, are you all right? Dimitri said Jasmine need stay calm. Damon looked at Dimitri and said, remember what we talk about yesterday? Jasmine looked at between Dimitri and Damon. Jasmine asked, what are you talking about? Damon said, your so-called friends. Jasmine smiled and said I have a surprise for all of them anyway. Soon you both out what I mean. Make Dimitri and Damon look at Jasmine.

Alberta walked back to Jasmine and said it time to get the show on the road. Jasmine smiled at Alberta. Alberta said Jasmine stay behind me with Dimitri and Damon. Jasmine, slowly counting to keep calm. Dimitri, Damon was on each side of Jasmine. Alberta, Jasmine, Damon, Dimitri, and two more guardians followed Alberta to the stage. Alberta pointed to where Jasmine would stand and face the students.

Alberta was trying to call students to attention. The crowd fell silent. Alberta said You all know why you're here." We'd become so quiet, so tense and excited, that her voice now rang through the gym. "This is the most important day of your education before you take your final trials. Today you will find out which Moroi you've been placed with. Last week, you were given a booklet with the full details of how the next six weeks will play out. I trust you've all read it by now." But there was something is going to happen that wasn't in the booklet. One of your classmates will be attacking you with some of the guardians.

Rose, Eddie, Visilissa, Christian looking around to found which student it would be. When Alberta said, the student might attack you will be Jasmine Hathaway. Making all the novices and Moroi surprising to find out that it would Jasmine could attack them at any given time. Rose started getting Vislissa feeling on change that Jasmine would attack them. Eddie said this could be the reason that Jasmine isn't sitting with us. Rose said Jazz is best fighter at the academy. We will have work three time as hard to fight her. Eddie said, let hope that she doesn't attack us.

Alberta called out to silence the crowd of students after finding out that Jasmine would or might attack them. Saying Jasmine will only attack with the other guardians and not alone. The novices student started looking worried. Jasmine would attack them.

Here we go," said Stan gruffly. "You'll be on duty six days a week. This is actually a treat for you guys. In the real world, you're usually working every day. You will accompany your Moroi everywhere - to class, to their dorms, to their feedings. Everything, It's up to you to figure out how you fit into their lives. Some Moroi interact with their guardians just like friends; some Moroi prefers you to be more of an invisible ghost who doesn't talk to them." Every situation is different, and you two will have to find a way to work it out to best ensure their safety. Stan was rubbing his neck where Jasmine put her knee against Adam's apple.

"Attacks may come at any time, anywhere, and we'll be dressed in all black when it happens. You should always be on your guard. Remember, even though you'll obviously know it's us doing the attacking and not real Strigoi, you should respond as though your lives are in terrible, immediate danger. Don't be afraid of hurting us. Some of you, I'm sure, won't have any qualms about getting us back for past grievances." Students in the crowd giggled at this. "But some of you may feel like you have to hold back, for fear of getting in trouble. Don't. You'll get in more trouble if you do hold back. Don't worry. We can take it."

He flipped to the next page of his clipboard. "You will be on duty twenty-four hours a day for your six-day cycles, but you may sleep during daylight when your Moroi does. Just be aware that although Strigoi attacks are rare in daylight, they aren't impossible indoors, and you will not necessarily be 'safe' during these times."

Dimitri leans over to Jasmine said you are doing great. Jasmine said just wait their one more surprise that I think you might like. Dimitri looked at Jasmine and turn back facing the crowd. "Thinking to himself what is surprise that Jasmine has plan. Soon that I will find out."

Alberta started which novice and which Moroi would be paired up together. When Alberta reads off, Edison Castile will be paired with "Vasilisa Dragomir." Dimitri finding surprising that Roza didn't get Vasilisa Dragomir. But Edison Castile would be Vasilisa's guardian and not Rose. Rose would have fit about it. When Alberta gets Rosemarie Hathaway is paired with Christian Ozera." That was a shock to Dimitri looked over at Jasmine again and lean down asked is this want you mean that you had a surprise? Jasmine said yes. I feel that will help Rosie grow as a guardian and find out that you don't always get want in life. Besides working with Pryo will be a good thing. They don't see eye to eye with each other. The link between Visilisa and Rosie could get them to kill. By working with Pyro help keep mine here and now. Dimitri knew that Jasmine was right it would be a good thing.

The last name was a novice, and Moroi were called out. Alberta turns Jasmine and saying return to the tower. Jasmine will be starting tomorrow. Jasmine said yes. Alberta. Dimitri told Alberta that Rose wouldn't be happily paired with Christian Ozera. Alberta said that Jasmine is the one who picked out the names and which Moroi should be paired with each other. Saying that Jasmine knew that Rose wouldn't be happy with Christian Ozera. But she believes it would be good for both of them. They don't see eye to eye. As Visilisa needs someone who couldn't see in mind all the time. Dimitri said I believe that Jasmine made the right call. Alberta said me too.


Damon and Jasmine arrived back at the tower. Damon said, honey. I think you surprised all the guardians and students today. I have never seen Alberta and Dimitri so proud of you. Jasmine said they one best student here at the academy. Damon said you are a shining star that lights the night sky for all rest novices. Jasmine said, I understand that I am a shining star. But it alone at the top. Damon said I guess that your friends still haven't talked to you? Jasmine said No. Damon said maybe they realize and apologize to you soon. Jasmine said I wouldn't hold my breath. Damon looked at Jasmine.

Jasmine went upstairs to change out her guardian suit. There was a knock on the door. Damon opens the door to found Adrian standing outside smoking a clove cigarette. Damon said you are not smoking that in here. Jasmine walked downstairs with a covered puzzle. Jasmine said, Hello Adrian. Why don't you come in? But first, put out that cigarette. Adrian put out the cigarette and walked inside. Asking what do you have in your hand Super Nova? Jasmine said something important. But first, I get to figure out how to open it and found what inside. Damon closes the door.

Jasmine sits down on the sofa and put the cover puzzle on the coffee table. Start undoing the ropes again and uncover the puzzle box. Adrian asked, where that come from? Jasmine said the watchers sent to me find it secret. Adrian said, who are the watchers? Jasmine said The watchers are a secret organization that has been with elements through time. Each element has to be tested. I guessing this is one of the tests. Figure out how to open this puzzle box. Adrian said this all that happens in the past week. Shit.

Jasmine asked, why was Tasha with all of you when I arrive back at the academy? Adrian said Tasha wanted to talk to Dimitri about something important. Jasmine said I don't understand why in the hell you bring that garbage with you. You know what she has done to me. In the past week, none of you had said a word to me. I fucking sick of it. Adrian and Damon could Jasmine was a little pissed off. Adrian could Jasmine's aura find bright red with light blue colors coming off Jasmine.

Adrian said You don't have to worry that Tasha has left the academy. Jasmine said good to hear that trash is gone. Adrian could see Jasmine's gold eyes again. Saying I am sorry! If I upset you. Jasmine turns from Adrian and started looking at the box. Saying I will be right back. Jasmine gets from the couch head upstairs to get the four-element journals.

When Adrian said, Jazz is upset. I have seen her aura, and it's red with light blue come from it. Which mean that upset and alone. Damon said When we arrived at the academy. All of you made Jasmine unwanted and didn't care about. How all talked Rose and acted that Jasmine wasn't their. Adrian said I was sorry if made feel that way. I will talk to the others about speaking to Jasmine. Damon said good. Dimitri was going to talk to them and still waiting for them arrive. Beside is Jasmine time of the month.

Jasmine came downstairs, caring for all four elements journals in her arms. Adrian asked, what are they? Jasmine said These are four journals from the other element. Adrian reached over picked one of the journals. Saying this is the symbol for water. Jasmine stop and looked at Adrian and asked how did you know that?

Adrian said after the spirit dream that I had with you. Vasilisa, Christian, and I looked it up in the library, and we found out it old symbols for the elements. Jasmine just looked at Adrian. Saying you sit there and let Visilisa look it up. Adrian said yes.

When the front door open and Dimitri came walking inside the tower to found Jasmine, Damon, and Adrian sitting in the living room with a puzzle box. Dimitri said I need a drink. Jasmine said you know where it is unless Uncle Adrian already drinks it. Adrian and Damon smile hear Jasmine made good joke.

Dimitri enters the tower to find Jasmine, Damon, and Adrian sitting in the living room with a puzzle box. Dimitri said I need a drink. Jasmine said you know where it is unless Adrian already drinks it up. Dimitri open-top the cabinet and found it few bottles of Jack Daniel'. Reaching up and grab a full bottle of Jack Daniel's. Reach over the grabbed glass from above the coffee maker. Turn around and sit down next to Jasmine. Opening the bottle and Adrian said now we have a party.

Dimitri pour him a glass of Jack Daniel's and went to take a drink. Dimitri said after you left. Roze was pissed off that sign to Christian. Jasmine said, why Rosie will just get over it. Figure out how to work with Pryo. Adrian asked what do you mean that Little Dhampir is working Christian? Damon said it program that all novice students have signed a moroi to watch and protected their moroi. Jasmine has already been through this program in St. Basil's Academy in Russia. Adrian said, what will Jazz being doing through this program? Jasmine said Alberta told me that I will be attacking my classmate with the guardians or might stand to watch the guardians fight.

Dimitri asked, Jasmine how in hell are we going to open this puzzle box? Jasmine looked at Dimitri with golden eyes and said I working on that. Reach over pick a bottle of Jack Daniel's, and taking a drink. Damon said, honey. You don't need to drink? Jasmine said, watch me. Dimitri said, not like Jazz hasn't drink before.


Jasmine was looking at the puzzle box seeing the symbols of the elements. Thinking to herself, these are symbols on each of the journals and from the dream. Start looking through each journal. Finding out air users was first. Moving on to each journal and finding it was air, fire, water, and Earth.

Jasmine reached with her right hand and put on the metal in the middle of the puzzle box. Jasmine could feel the metal modeling around her fingers give her the feeling of warm metal. But it didn't burn her and felt like a magic feeling. Jasmine slowly turns her left to the air symbol and hearing a click. Damon, Dimitri, and Adrian stop talking. Start watching Jasmine and the puzzle box.

Adrian asked Jazz. Did that click come from that puzzle box? Dimitri could see that Jasmine wasn't paying him mine. Seeing her eyes were golden. Jasmine moved her hand to the right to the symbol of fire and hearing the second click. Turn her back to the left to the symbol of water and heard the third click. Moving her hand to the right to Earth, and hear the four click. But nothing happens. Move her and blank and last click. When the metal that model around Jasmine moved down. Jasmine removed her hand and watched her move to the side. The puzzle boxed slowly open to reviled a scroll with the same mark of the tree. Jasmine reached down and picked up the scroll to see the same wax seal that was on the back of the letter with the same mark of the tree.

Adrian said, All the things be in side of a puzzle box with out a old scroll. Damon said, interesting. Jasmine pulled scroll closer to her. When her eyes started turning white and seeing different flashes. Adrian said, Super Nova. Why don't you open it, and found out what it says. Dimitri looked at Jasmine to find that her eyes were gone white again. Dimitri knew that they would have wait until Jasmine consciousness had return from seeing the echo of the pass or message for her. Dimitri said we are just have wait until Jasmine returns seeing echo. Adrian looked over to find Jasmine eyes where white. Adrian said interesting and grabbed bottle. Asking this happen everytime Jazz see something? Dimitri said Yes. Kind same slept in Visilisa head.

Jasmine's consciousness started to return five minutes later. Jasmine started blinking and said the watchers would be here in three days. They are appearing, through the front gates. Dimitri put his arm around Jasmine and pulling Jasmine to him away from Damon. Saying replied, don't worry. I will inform Alberta of their arrival at our academy. Dimitri looked down and see Jasmine holding the scroll in her hands.

Damon asked about the scroll? Jasmine said I am giving it to the leader of the watcher. Then I will be tested. Adrian said test of what? Jasmine said good question. Jasmine starting to yawn. Dimitri said it bedtime for Jasmine.

Jasmine put the scroll back inside the puzzle box. Close the doors of the puzzle box. Watch metal plate move up and sound four clicks. Jasmine put leather back around it with ropes. Adrian said, why does it have leather around it with ropes? Damon said if you touch the puzzle box. It will shock the shit out of you. But with the leather around, it keeps you getting shocked. Jasmine said to keep people stealing the puzzle box to stole it secret. It an element to open the puzzle box.

Jasmine keeps yawning. Dimitri said, its time for your bedtime. Jasmine reached down picking the puzzle box, journals, and stood up, and walked upstairs. Adrian said I think it's time for me to leave. Adrian and Damon left the tower.

Dimitri thought to himself many different things have happened to Jasmine. But he gets the feeling still more to come. Locking up all the doors and checking the windows. Before going to bed. Walking into Jasmine's bedroom and check on Jasmine watch her sleeping holding her pony. Dimitri went to his bedroom and get ready for bed. Walking downstairs to Jasmine and lay down with Jasmine. Start watching Jasmine sleeping.
