I don't know how long I was out. I couldn't see anything so I slipped inside Lissa's head.

"Dimitri. Where's Rose?" Lissa asked.

"I thought she was over by you." He said confused.

"Princess! Belikov! Over here!" My mother cried. They both ran over to her and saw why she was panicked. On the ground was a pool of blood with shards of glass. Taped to the broken window was a note.

Belikov,

If you ever want to see Rosemarie Hathaway alive again you will come alone to the Spokane warehouse you once held Princess Vasilisa and Lord Ozera. I will know if you are alone or not. If you come with company I will kill and I will enjoy it.

-Nathan

I heard Lissa scream at the same time my mom gasp.

"I'm going after her. I can't lose her. Not again." Dimitri said firmly. I wanted to be there with him to let him know I was okay. Suddenly Adrian walked in.

"Adrian! Rose is gone. A strigoi, Nathan, took her." Lissa cried.

"What? Wait hold on. Rose is asleep. I will try to contact her." Adrian said.

":How do you know that?" Dimitri asked.

"I've dream walked with her lots of times. I can tell when she is and when she's not." He snapped clearly annoyed. Adrian laid down and tried to focus on finding me. I slipped out of Lissa's head and into my own thick black fog and suddenly I was on a mountain top with Adrian standing opposite me. He saw me and instantly ran to me.

"Oh my God Rose! What did he do to you?" Adrian demanded.

"What do you mean? I don't know what happened." I said. The next thing I know Adrian is handing my a mirror. When I saw my face mimicked Adrian's. All over my neck was dried blood. I had a black eye and a busted lip. But what looked really bad was the black and blue bruises all over my arms and a big bruise on my abdomen.

"Bu-But this can't happen! Adrian promise me you won't let Dimitri come near here! They will kill him." I cried.

"Good! The world will be better when he is gone!" he snapped.

"No! I won't let you say that. It would hurt me too much if either of you died. Please Adrian." I begged.

"No Rose. We need you so I am going to tell him and let him go after you." He says just before fading away.

"NO!" I yelled into the darkness. I sat up with a hard jolt. I needed to know what he was going to say to Dimitri. I went back into Lissa's head and watched the conversation.

"Belikov, go! Rose is in a lot of trouble. They've been feeding from her and beating her. I don't think she will survive another feeding." He said. Before I could focus on anymore of the conversation a wave of nausea hit me hard nearly knocking me over. I snapped back into my own head and the first thing I saw was red eyes starring into my eyes.

"He's coming isn't he Rose?" Nathan said and started to laugh.

(a/n) again! Sorry the chapter is oober short but the next chapter is REAL exciting! Please review
