Okay I'm gonna insert the others in the story now. I know you're all bored because all I write about is Cathryne Cathryne Cathryne. Well, she does play a part in this you know. That's why.**

I don't own VA. Richell Mead does. :D


Rose POV

I woke up alone in my bed. Again. Uhh. I took a warm bath, dressed, and then walked out the room to find something to eat. i came to the dining room and it was shutting. But one of the waitresses was kind enough to give me a couple of peaches marzipan scones. I ate it and looked for Lissa and the others. I sipped in through the bond and knew they were in a room far from the rooms of the students.. I came there and knocked on the door.

Christian POV

Aunt Tasha was teaching me a new offensive magic when someone knocked on the door. It was Rose. "Sleeping beauty arrives. Welcome." I ushered her inside and she sat beside Lissa on the bed. "Why can't I stick with the consuming spell?" I asked my Aunt. "Because it uses a lot of energy. Plus, it'll likely kill your opponent" She answered. "Why wouldn't I want to kill a strigoi?" "You might not always be fighting one. Or maybe you need information from them. Regardless, you should be prepared either way." we practiced more until I can do it. "A distracting spell is almost as useful." she said then she focused her eyes, her wrist flicked forward, and a streak of fire snaked past me . It didn't touch me but it was enough for me to feel the heat. I tried it but wasn't able to do it perfectly when Aunt Tasha was about to go. "It has uses Christian" Aunt said. "It could be really useful if you're fighting with a guardian" Rose said excitedly. "Exactly. You and I have to go Strigoi hunting someday" Aunt Tasha said to Rose. "I don't think so" Rose said rudely. I was shocked with her attitude. She was being a bitch to my Aunt. We went outside when Rose and Lissa were talking. "Look, I'm just grumpy, okay? Didn't get much sleep. Besides, I'm not like you. I don't have to be polite all the time." Rose said to Lissa. I wanted to snap at her so bad. She's acting very bitchy and uh! I can't take it anymore. I'm glad Mason approached us.

Lissa POV

I'm shocked. What is happening to Rose? First Tasha. Now me. Uhh! I was so caught up on my thoughts when I heard Mason ask Rose. "Is it true you were hanging out with Adrian Ivashkov?" Wow. "I heard you guys got drunk last night." I was so shocked. "You did? He got a bad reputation Rose." I said. "Yeah. He goes through a lot of girls." Christian said.

Rose POV

The day ended. Finally. I sighed. Me and Mason kissed and I don't know if we're together now or what. I slept that night and dreamed about Adrian Ivashkov. I stood with him on the porch again, only it was summer. Adrian leaned against the porch's railing, glanced over, and did a double take when he saw me. "Oh. Didn't expect to see you here." He smiled. "I was right. You are devastating when you're cleaned up." I looked at him, studying the way the sun shone off his brown hair. here, in full daylight, I could see that his eyes were indeed green, a deep emerald green. Something startling suddenly occurred to me. "Doesn't all this sun bother you?" He gave a lazy shrug. "Nah. It's my dream." "No, It's my dream." "Are you sure?" His smile returned. I felt confused. "I dont know." He chuckled, but a moment later, his laughter faded. He looked serious. For the first time since I met him. "Why do you have so much darkness around you?" I frowned. "What?"

Adrian POV

I studied her aura. "You're sorrounded in blackness. I've never seen anyone like you. Shadows everywhere. I never would have guessed it. Even while you're standing there, the shadows keep growing." Then she said, "I'm shadow-kissed. I died once and I came back" I smiled wondering.. "Interesting" Then I woke up. I spent the whole day drinking because the auras are bothering me. So many auras.. There have been another Strigoi attack. I decided to go out when I saw the auras are laying low. When I was walking I heard someone talking..


**Who do you think Adrian heard? Haha. Review K? Thanks :D
