Yes it is short but i still hope you enjoy.

To my surprise Guardian Alto didn't pick on me. Instead he completely ignored me. Even though I was about twenty minutes late to class because of my little chat with Adrian. Maybe I wasn't the only one acting weird today. No one stared no one whispered no one even cared. I couldn't say I was complaining about the lack of attention it was just a little unusual.

"Eddie what's going on?" I whispered during the lecture.

"Oh you didn't hear?" he asked. It hurt to talk to him sometimes because he had been mason's best friend and some of their mannerisms had been the same. This had been the same thing that mason said when he was telling me about the ill fated ski trip. Only the difference between mason and Eddie was mason was wearing a huge grin whereas Eddie was grimacing. This was never a good sign.

"Hear what?" I asked trying to assess his seriousness.

"Well there has been another attack." he said. Attacks where becoming more and more frequent but something about Eddie's face told me it wasn't just another attack.

"Well who was it?"

"Rose, it wasn't just one family rose they attacked an entire academy."

"They had human help?"

"That's what they believe." he looked like he would cry.

"What else aren't you telling me?" I asked.

"Mia was there, she was turned." he said this time a tear actually leaked from his eye.

"Eddie I am so sorry" I know that after the Spokane incident he had gotten close with her.

This wasn't fair, I was worried about my fragmented feelings and there had been another attack. How selfish can I be? They come first. Strigoi where taking on entire schools, that is a suicide mission for them unless they have extraordinary numbers. Then it hit me.

"They are going to try to come here." it wasn't really a question but he regarded it as one.

"Yes, and we don't have nearly as many guardians as the last school did."

"Shit" I said.

This was a lot to take in, and although things weren't really as relaxed as usual it seemed like they weren't doing anything about it. Times like these I wish that I had Dimitri here. He would tell me what was really going on.

Well i thing i can say great things come in small packages. lol can't wait for update. Review please.
