I'm sorry for not updating in soooo long (like a month). I could come up with a million excuses but I'm just going to tell you that I've been lazy and have had major writers block! School is over for the year so I should be able to write more in the holidays. btw i know whats going to happen in the story now i.e. who the murderer is and how to get Rose out of jail! I was thinking about it yesterday and it just hit me. I can't tell you what it is yet but it will be good. Anyway I'll finish off my yammering and let you read the story. lol. Hope you love it!

Review and Favorite because they make be so happy!

Previously on The New Last Sacrifice...

I heard a scream in the room, only to realise it was my own as I saw Rose's unconscious body fall to the floor.

LPOV

My view of my uncle changed from the current hatred to a whole new level of disgust as Roses body fell in what seemed to be slow motion. First a glint of realisation shone in her dark brown eyes, then as the baseball bat came down Rose fell towards the concrete floor and landed with a hard bang.

I was vaguely aware of the guardians rushing past me to try and restrain a laughing Victor as all of my attention was on Rose. In a flash Adrian and I were beside her with Adrian trying to heal her into consciousness but it was no use. Even our spirit abilities couldn't wake up the unconscious. We could heal their injuries that caused them to lose consciousness but they would have to just wake up on their own accord. Sometimes this would really bug me as Rose seems to spend a lot of time unconscious but this time all we could do was try our hardest to protect her from Victor who could burst in at any moment.

"Adrian, she looks horrible! What do they feed her here?"

"Well, actually they feed me the scraps from the Guardians' food but that really doesn't matter because what are the Guardians going to say if they see you down here with me?"

Darkness surrounded me. An eternal darkness that seemed to be impenetrable. It seemed to last a lifetime until a voice in the distance was heard. It seemed to be sobs, then a voice .

"Adrian, she looks horrible! What do they feed her here?"

Lissa. What is she doing here? What are the guardians going to say if they see her? I tried to come up with a witty line but all my half sleeping brain couldn't come up with anything so I decided to just settle with the basics.

"Well, actually they feed me the scraps from the Guardians' food but that really doesn't matter because what are the Guardians going to say if they see you down here with me?"

Lissa almost screamed in relief when I came to and pulled me into a bone crushing hug.

"Ah, Lissa? I can't really breath are you trying to kill me?"

She let go abruptly and muttered apologies. This time it was me who gave the hugging. Pulling both Lissa and Adrian into the biggest hug I could muster because, honestly, I missed my friends. I haven't seen them for so long that I hadn't realised I had almost gone insane from my lack of socialisation. A hug with my friends just seemed to release the pressure and tension within me.

After my own bone crushing hug I got a good glimpse of Adrian. His hair was styled in its usual messed up way but it seemed to be slightly more messed up than usual. He had dark circles under his eyes and his skin looked unusually pale, even for a Moroi. Apart from that he didn't have the usual smell of alcohol or clove cigarettes that would surround him most days. It made me happy to see that even with me in jail he still stuck to his promises that me made me in his dating proposal.

He looked at me and smiled genially. I hadn't realised how much I missed him. After calling me his Little Dhampir he pulled me into his own hug that was gentler than mine and Lissa's had been. I placed my head in the crook of his neck and sighed in contentment. He pulled me back and placed a sweet kiss on my lips that made my heart flutter. (Yes, Rose Hathaway's heart can flutter!)

With a start I realised that Lissa must have used a lot of spirit to reach me. The spirits side effects could have done horrible things to her by now. It wasn't until then that I noticed the anger and rage burning within her. Most of it was spirit induced so I pulled it into me though the bond. I felt the brief flare of the anger before somehow pushing it away, deep into myself. I was becoming pretty good at that now.

Somehow Lissa noticed that I had taken the spirit's side effects away and she scolded me weakly saying that I will hurt my self one day. The only problem in what she just said is that I would much rather go insane and know I was helping Lissa than her going insane and me knowing there was something I could have done. They come first. The words they had drilled into out heads since I could remember stuck in my head and I was starting to think of them more often.

LPOV

Seeing your best friend alive and happy just seemed to make everything alright. It could push the spirit away that were threatening to take over up until this point and I'm sure that if it was given the chance to it could stop wars. She hugged Adrian and I let out a single tear of happiness. She turned around and then I remembered the baseball bat swinging down onto Rose's head. The anger that I was feeling before was no match to the rage I was feeling now. He had hurt Rose and now he would pay. I will rip his head off so slowly that- what was I thinking? The anger that I had been feeling before had gone. Vanished. I looked at Rose to see a concentrated look on her face that told me immediately where it had gone.

She was trying to push the madness away and it looked like it was taking a lot out of her. Worry welled up in my heart for her sanity. When it looked like she had won her mental battle I scolded her brutally.(keep in mind that Lissa's idea of brutally is a little different to the rest of the world's) for taking the spirit from me but I could tell it wasn't making any difference. I could almost hear the saying they come first ticking away in Rose's head. That saying made the Moroi sound selfish. I didn't really like it very much but the guardians lived by it and it was really starting to annoy me.

APOV

I patiently watched the scene before me. Rose was alive and okay and that is all that matters. She was thinner and paler but she still had the Little Dhampir spark that I loved. Rose doesn't know how lucky she is to have a best friend and a boy friend who are both spirit users who are so good at compulsion. Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to come down and see her.

It was then that the idea hit me. Possibly the best idea I had ever come up with.

After a few minutes of catching Rose up on the court life it didn't take long for the Guardians to realise that two important, royal Moroi were in the company of the 'murderous' and 'dangerous' Rose Hathaway and when they did notice they had Lissa and me out of the jail in a speed that only a Guardian could manage.

It must have baffled them as to why THE Lissa Dragomir would want to spend more time with a murderous villain but, hey, thats life for ya.

Once Lissa and I had made it to our rooms I told Lissa of my plan.

"Lissa, I have a way to get Rose Hathaway out of jail" I announced proudly. "But its going to be hard."

Ha so there you have it! Adrian isn't such an idiot after all. Lets hope his plan works. I'm sorry you have to wait to see his plan but thats the way it is. hehehe *-*

I'm sorry it took so long to update I was reading The Last Sacrifice. I'm finished that now and its the school holidays so I should be able to write HEAPS more!

Please review and favourite because each review is like i giant hug!

ily all!
