HELLO EVERYONE! Miss me? bet you did. I'm sorry I didn't update sooner but even in vacation I have no time to write (bummer) well anyway, here it is!
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I own nothing…just the plot.
Chapter 6
"Dimitri" – I breathed. How did he find me? I thought that no one had seen me leave the hospital. Damn I'm totally screwed any moment now I am waiting to see a troop of guardians coming in. but nothing like that happens, Dimitri is just by himself and he makes no aggressive moves towards me. But I don't let my guard down because I know just how lethal he can be.
"How did you found me?"
"It wasn't that difficult. I figured who would the only people that will help you? The answer was pretty obvious really."- I couldn't help but notice that he wasn't seeing me in the eyes. – "so, how did you make them help you? - He starts walking towards me while I back against the opposite wall. – "did you compel them? Convince them you are not a monster? Because it doesn't matter what you used on them to get them to help you, it's not going to make you convince me" – by now I had my back pressed to the wall. My nails digging behind my back like I could make a hole and escape through there. Which I probably could but I was pretty sure that comrade wasn't going to give me the time to do that.
"Dimitri please listen to me…"
"No, I won't. But I will make up for the promise I made you." – I saw the infinite hurt and loss in those brown eyes before he pulls his guardian mask on. Shutting his emotions.
That is when I start to feel angry. Anger towards him. How dare he doesn't believe me! he was supposed to always have my back. To be there for me. But when I need him the most he doesn't believe me. my anger was rising. And I could hear a tiny voice in my head fueling it all up. He doesn't trust you. He didn't believe you. You have to make him see that he cannot ignore you. Show him just what you are capable of.
Soon that was all I could listen. I have to make him see it. And with that I launched to him. I wasn't aiming to hurt him, just to pin him to the ground and it took him by surprise because he came to the floor along with me. He immediately begins to fight me but I can feel he's holding back. He didn't even try to reach for his stake. I try to pin him to the ground but he moves and we struggle for a while and then rolls over so that he is on top of me. He's heavier but I'm stronger so I push him and he nearly flies all the way to the bed. He's quick to recover and seems to finally realize that he has a stake because he takes it out of his coat. We circle each other for a while testing each other. Looking for the other weaknesses. That is the disadvantage with us. We know each other's movements too well. He feints left and then goes right. Just like I knew he would so I block easily and we are back to circling again. Then I try to kick his legs from under him but he jumps and tries to punch me. I don't think. I can't. The voice in my head sounds even more enraged than before and I can't help but listen. See, he tried to hit you! What does he thinks he's doing? Stop him. Pin him. Kill him!
Wait what? I don't want to kill him, just stop him to make him listen to me. Oh God I'm a monster. I just wanted to go to a corner and cry. But Dimitri wasn't aware of my internal battle and when he realizes I am distracted he attacks and wasting no time he hits me in the stomach and then makes a roundhouse kick and I am flying to the ground.
No no! What are you doing! He's going to kill you!
The voice keeps shouting in my head. Just as Dimitri's stake is coming down I roll out of the way and punch him on the side. I hear him grunt but didn't stop the voice urging me. So I grabbed the stake and tossed it to the other side of the room. I continue to punch and kick him until he is barely clanging to consciousness. That is when I see his face. He is covered in bruises and his nose is bleeding. So is his bottom lip.
I kneel besides him and see that he is still conscious and he is seeing me directly in the eyes.
What are you doing? Finish him off! – the voice is yelling at me. But it no longer commands me. all I can see is Dimitri. My Dimitri just lying there. Oh what have I done?
"Dimitri, oh God I'm so sorry baby" – I hadn't realized I was crying until I see that the tears were spilling from my cheeks and onto the floor next to Dimitri.
"No Roza... I'm sorry." – Dimitri then starts to weep. His eyes look a bit unfocused like he's seen me but not me. – "I'm sorry love I failed you."
"No, no you didn't. I love you" – I say and then pick him up. I am so strong now that I carry him to the bed with no problem. Next I go to the bathroom and picking a towel I make it wet and come to clean up the blood on his face. But I began wiping the blood from her face I notice that a single line is dripping from his lip. And suddenly that is all I can see. That red fluid falling to his chin. I lean down slowly, like hypnotized and lick it. I feel the flavor of Dimitri's blood explode in my mouth. And I needed more. I was about to bit him when I lifted my eyes and locked stares. And when I saw that eyes, I saw fear, and I saw myself, the monster I have become.
I have to get out of here. So giving Dimitri one last glance I sprint trough the door. The tears continue to spill down my cheeks but I didn't stop no even when I reached the sidewalk. It was dark outside anyway and the streets were deserted. I had to get away from here. But as I was rounding the corner i heard a sound, I turn around just in time to see a metal bar hit me in the face. Then, blackness.
DPOV
Everything hurts.
I must have passed out because light is steaming out of the only window in the room. The last thing I remembered was IT going through the door after it almost killed me. Yes it, because my Roza was dead since the moment that thing with red eyes and pale skin woke up in the hospital. The love of my life was long since gone.
But why wasn't I dead then?
Standing up I checked myself in the mirror. Aside from the bruises and blood in my face I looked like myself. Brown eyes, tanned skin.
I remembered her beating me. And later when she put me in bed. And start cleaning my wounds. What did that meant? I remember her telling me over and over, that she was sorry. Strigoi didn't apologize. So why this one did?
That is when I notice my stake, tossed in one of the corners of the room. And that was the most amazing thing of all. Rose had grabbed and tossed it to the other side of the room. But how did she grab it without screaming in pain? With the magic in the stake she shouldn't have been able to.
Then how did she manage to make it?
RPOV
"Finally you are up!" – A voice was saying in my right. – "Thought I'd hit you harder than necessary."
"Uhg" – I say sitting up. I look at my surroundings. I was in what looked to be an abandoned warehouse of some sort. And sitting in the middle of all this, drinking a cup of tea like nothing was the pixie strigoi. Except that she didn't look strigoi anymore.
She looked damphir.
So many questions…how did Rose grabbed the stake? What happened with the pixie strigoi? When will I update again? Well I guess that if you review you will get your answers sooner!
Peace! Mori.
