Chapter 7
Hiya everyone :D
I got Runner Up Cadet of The Year at my cadet unit last night and I was so happy I felt like starting on this chapter straight away. I feel so bad about taking so long to post this chapter but I hope you all LOVE it!
Okay as I promised Dimitri's POV when he remembers Rose. I am going to start off at the restaurant in chapter 5 and work through until after Rose is taken so please bear with me.
I would also lke to tankmy amazing Beta SassYNoles although this chapter was not beta read/edited so i could get it to all my readers quicker. So please don't be harsh.
So without further ado … here it is
I do not own Vampire Academy, that belongs to the brilliant Richelle Mead but I do own Vitya/Viktor and the storyline.
Dimitri's POV
Bleh! God I hate attending all of those royal meetings, but I guess that's what you get when your charge is the last Dragomir. After attending the 6th meeting Christian and Lissa decide to go to a local restaurant in Court for lunch. Lissa insisted on Eddie and I eating something and to get away from – in her words – "that stupid wall". I grudging agreed making mental notes about how much better it would be to eat some Russian food. Even though Lissa had convinced Eddie and I to eat with her it didn't stop us from doing our usual sweeping of the room with our eyes. While I was looking towards the bathrooms I heard Eddie gasp. When I saw he was looking at the door I turned towards the entrance in the back of mind I realised that my eyes widened.
It couldn't be … I thought I had just gotten rid of him, apparently not. Geese everywhere I go Viktor always manages to screw up all my hard earned work. Just seeing him brought all of those buried memories about Ivan. The first day I met him in Elementary school, going to Prom with two of the most popular girls in school, the day Ivan died. I should have know Viktor was up to something, that's the one advantage to being related – twins to be more specific – to that abomination. When Ivan graduated he requested me and Mikhail Tanner another friend of ours as his guardian, because he was a royal he got what he wanted.
That fateful night happened on my shift off. Ivan was supposed to be with his other guardian but Viktor had got in the way. Viktor pretended he was me – which was easy, he just had to wear coloured contacts to change his green eyes to brown – and told the other guardian to finish early. They both went to The Nighting Gale to have a drink. Both of them getting absolutely smashed. Even though Viktor is treated as royalty he did go through school as a Dhampir and learned how to take care of a Moroi. He should have known better then to drink. As they were leaving the club Ivan was attacked by Strigoi and both Ivan and Viktor were to drunk to do anything. Ivan was killed instantly when his neck was snapped and Viktor was left with a broken spine, arm and leg and a punctured lung. Luckily for Viktor one of the family friends, Oksana, was a Spirit user and healed him of all injuries. It was a tragedy; the other guardian blames himself for not realising that Viktor was not me so much that he retired from guarding Moroi and now works at Court doing a desk job.
I have never accepted the fact that it was accident and I still believe to this day that Viktor had some role in Ivan's death. For him to just turn up now was not good. I put my Guardian Mask back up before anyone could see that something was wrong. I quickly noticed that he wasn't alone. Tasha Ozera and Dhampir woman around the age of 19 walked in behind Viktor. Uh isn't there any woman safe from his alluring charms. I felt the unfamiliar feeling of jealousy sweep over me. What the … Why would I be jealous it's not like I like Tasha like that and I don't even know the other woman. Weird!
Viktor's group moved to the corner of the restaurant to eat their lunch. When Lissa and Christian finished eating their lunch and had payed Lissa needed to use the bathroom. 2 minutes after Lissa went to the bathroom I noticed the Dhampir with Viktor making her way to the bathroom too. As she went to open the door, it swung open and smacked her straight in the face. Per usual Lissa started to apologise profusely before her face scrunched up into a look of confusion before she started screaming at the Dhampir,
"What is wrong with you? Are you pretending to know me because I am the last Dragomir? Why would you do that?"
Almost immediately the woman started to scream back at Lissa. Oh no and I thought today would be clear sailing. I wondered what they were talking about to cause such a reaction in sweet, innocent Lissa. I started to walk towards Lissa listening intently to what the mystery woman was saying, "No, I swear, I'm not joking. I'm Rose your best friend. I grew up with you. I was there in the car crash that your parents and Andre died in," Oh god. It is never good when you bring Lissa's family up, she goes into such a mood, "As a matter of fact I died in that crash too and you brought me back. I know that your boyfriend, Christian, fought in the Strigoi attack at St. Vladimir's with a Dhampir. Do you even know who that Dhampir was?" Lissa shook her head. No one – not even Christian, himself – knows who fought along side with Christian in the fight, the only person I could think would do something like that died two months earlier, "It was me! If it wasn't for Christian and me teaming up a lot of the Elementary kids would have died but no one can even remember me, not even my mother or my best-friend Vasilisa!"
I reached the pair just as the woman collapsed on the floor. Well she would have if I hadn't caught her. When she looked up at me her eyes widened. "Are you alright …" I asked realising I didn't know her name.
"Guardian Hathaway." She responded her voice quavering. Strange I didn't know there was another Guardian Hathaway. Janine didn't have a daughter that I know of.
"Are you alright Guardian Hathaway?" I asked her then turned to Lissa before she could respond, " Is this woman bothering you Princess?"
Lissa scowled at me for using her title. "No its –" She started to say before she was interrupted by my brother and Tasha.
"Rose, Roza are you okay?" Viktor asked as he took Rose out of my arms. Strangely I felt empty without Rose in my arms. I also flinched when Viktor called Rose, "Roza". What is wrong with me today?
"Yeah … I was … just tal … king to … Lissa." Rose sobbed to Viktor.
"Viktor what are you doing here?" I growled at Viktor.
"I'm here with my friends Tasha and Roza, baby brother. Does that bother you? Anyway not like it matters I do live here." Viktor told using his royalty voice. It really bugs me that he pretends to be royalty and gets all the special treatment. Oh and here we go again, even though we're twins Viktor always speaks to me as if I was 10 years younger then – even though I'm only two minutes younger. Rose looked slightly angry at how Viktor was treating me. Strange I've only just met this woman.
"Don't talk to me like I am 10 years younger then you Viktor." I told Viktor letting my anger getting the better of me before putting my guardian mask back up. Lissa was looking between Viktor and me with confusion. Which is understandable seeing how I didn't want to tell anyone about my brother. It's just dumb luck that we had to run into him today.
"Dimka, Vitya calm down this is not about you. Rose are you alright?" Tasha asked Rose, "Lissa would it be okay if I were stay at your place or do you want me to stay with Rose and Vitya?" Tasha asked Lissa even though she already knew she would be staying with Liss.
"What you and Rose can't stay with my brother it is too dangerous. You don't know what he is capable of doing." I screamed at Tasha, letting my guardian mask drop, hoping she would change her mind about staying with Viktor.
"You have no control over me anymore Comrade; I am no longer your student. I can do whatever I want and I am staying at Vitya's place." Wow, where did that come from? I wasn't even her teacher and what's with Comrade? When I realised that my guardian mask was still down I quickly slammed it back into place.
"I do not know you Rose, so how could you possibly been my student if I have never seen you before today?" I told her using my "strictly business" voice that a previous student of mine pointed out that I liked to use that voice a lot.
"Think real hard Comrade. What do you think happened on all of those blank periods of time before breakfast everyday at St. Vlads? All of those time that you can't remember what happened. There is a reason that you – and Lissa and Christian and almost everyone else at St. Vlads for that matter – have unexplained gaps in your memory. It was because you were compelled to forget someone. ME!" She screamed back into my face. How did she know so much about me? Nobody – and I mean nobody – knew that I had blanks in my memory that I couldn't explain, but this is the first time that I've heard about other people experiencing the same thing. The only person who knew me inside and out without even trying died last year.
Rose rose to her feet and took Tasha and Vitya's hand before leaving the restaurant. I turned toward the Princess to see her expression was complete confusion. Before I had the chance to ask if she was okay she started to bombard me with questions.
"Who was that man? Why does he look like you? Are you brothers? Why didn't you tell me? What is up between the two of you? Why do you hate each other? What is his name?" Lissa exclaimed with out breathing between questions.
"Yes Princess, that was my brother. His name is Viktor Dashkov-Belikov and we are twins. Victor Dashkov's illegitimate brother, Robert Dashkov-Doru is our father. Viktor went to live with our father in Las Vegas when we were 7 when, after our younger sister was born. We'd still see him every now and then when he would pop in for a visit always bringing anger, destruction and sadness in his wake. Viktor is the only member of my family that has our father's last name, so technically his full name is Lord Viktor Dashkov-Belikov. He was trained as a Dhampir but is treated like royalty. When I was twenty I was one of the guardians to my best friend Ivan Zeklos when Viktor pretended to be on my shift off. They both went down to the Nighting Gale and got drunk. When Ivan and Viktor were leaving Strigoi were waiting to ambush them. Viktor was too drunk to be any help and he sent the other guardian to finish his shift early. The Strigoi killed Ivan when they snapped his neck. Viktor was left in a shocking state but we was dead yet, he was left with a broken spine, arm and leg and a punctured lung. Luckily for Viktor a family friend is a Spirit user and healed him but Ivan wasn't as lucky. The other guardian was a mess for not realising that Viktor wasn't me he resigned from guarding and works in the vaults of Court. If it wasn't for Viktor, Ivan would be alive and Guardian Tanner wouldn't have destroyed his chances of being the excellent guardian he was becoming. That is why I hate Viktor so much and didn't want anyone know I was related to such a monstrosity. I knew you would find out sooner or later, I was just hoping it would later." I told Lissa and Christian. I've never told anyone this and it felt good to get it off my chest but I didn't explain everything. I don't know why but it feels like Viktor did something else to me but I can't remember.
Lissa accepted my answer but was shocked to find out that Victor Dashkov is my uncle. Which is understandable seeing how Victor tortured her and Marie. Sigh I can't believe it has been a year since Marie and Mason died. I can tell that Lissa was remembering Marie too. It was hard for her to deal with the death of Mason and Marie. Marie and Lissa always seemed to be joined at the hip. Lissa has never been the same since. We spent the rest of the day attending more Royal and Council meetings before we went back to Lissa's house at about 7am. Surprisingly Tasha wasn't all ready here, she must have decided to stay with Vitya. I hope her and Rose will be safe in his house but I have a feeling Rose knows how to protect herself. Oddly enough Rose reminded me a lot like Marie. Sigh, why does life have to be so cruel sometimes. I fell into a strong sleep dreaming of Marie – which was normal seeing how she was more then just a student – and also, surprisingly, Rose.
The next morning Christian and Lissa wanted to go and see Tasha so the two Moroi, Eddie and I headed towards my brothers house. Tasha greeted us all at the front door and insisted that we come in for breakfast. While Tasha was making everyone coffee I noticed that Rose and Viktor weren't in the room. Just as I was about to ask Tasha where they were I heard an ear-piercing scream – that belonged to Rose – come from the back of the house. I instantly ran towards the scream unsure of what I'd find leaving Eddie with the Moroi. When I burst through the bedroom door I noticed Viktor lying on the bed and Rose lying on the floor looking dazed and shocked with blood staining the back of her head and neck. "What happened?" I growled at Viktor.
"Nothing happened little brother. Roza just fell out of bed that's all. Nothing to worry about, go back and talk to Tasha while I help Roza." Viktor sneered at me.
"There is no way I will be leaving Rose alone with you Viktor," I told him as I made my way over to Rose's side, "Rose are you okay? Eddie I need you in here, now!" I yelled at the door. I saw Rose flinch when I yelled.
"Oww, can you please not speak so loud." Rose whispered to me. As I looked into her face I noticed how similar she is to Marie. Before I could think more about it I heard a gasp come from the doorway.
"Ro … Rose is that you?" Eddie asked flabbergasted. Looking at Eddie in shock and trying – I think – to raise one eyebrow,
"Who is Rose?" She said while trying to stand up. Uh oh not a smart move. Rose began to fall the floor before I caught her. She fainted in my arms.
"Eddie, I need to take Rose to the hospital immediately. I need to take the car. You look after the Moroi and make your way the hospital as soon as you can." I said as I sped out of the room trying not to jostle Rose too much. I'm pretty sure she has a concussion and amnesia to go along with the nasty gash in the back of her head. I wonder how she got that. I told her Tasha it was a bad idea to stay with Viktor. What was he even doing in Rose's room? I felt jealousy sweep through me again.
As soon as I got to the hospital the nurses took Rose out of my arms so the doctor could attend to her. Two minutes later Tasha rushed into the waiting room followed closely by Lissa, Christian and Eddie. Viktor was nowhere in sight. Good I thought. "Where is she? What is wrong with her?" Tasha asked me, out of breath.
"The doctor and nurses are attending to her. They said they come get me when they were done." I told Tasha trying to calm her down. Why is she so worried about her? I mean obviously she'd be worried but she seems to be over the top worried. Hmm I'll make a mental note of this.
One minute later the nurse came and allowed us to see Rose. On the way to Rose's room the nurse explained that Rose had received a strong wack to the back of her head causing her to have temporary amnesia and a mild concussion. When we reached the room I saw that Rose was hocked up to an IV and a heart monitor. She also dressings around her head to stop the bleeding. Lissa being Lissa, she wanted to heal her injuries but Tasha told her that Rose hates being healed. How would she know about healing? Does she know other Spirit users?
After ten minutes Christian and Lissa were summoned to see the queen. Eddie and I offered to go with them but Lissa insisted that she would take her other guardian. Eddie insisted that he would walk them to the guardian quarters to make sure she was safe before coming back to the hospital.
Very shortly after they left I thought I saw Rose move but put it down to me imagining it until she groaned, "Oww!"
Tasha was closest to Rose. "Rose are you okay?" She asked as she hugged Rose.
"Uhhh … Yeah … What happened?" Rose asked Tasha. Confusion evident in her voice.
"Well we were hoping you would be able to fill in the gaps. What we know is that you screamed. I found you on your bedroom floor and Viktor was lying in bed and then you fainted. The doctor said that you mild concussion and temporary amnesia. Can you remember anything?" I said while still leaning on the wall. I felt slightly better knowing that Rose was now awake.
"Uhhh yeah I remember waking up and seeing Vitya lying on the bed next to me. I screamed and rolled out of bed, hitting my head on the bedside table. Everything else is a little fuzzy." Rose told me slightly embarrassed. We all sat in an uncomfortable silence just staring at each other until Eddie came back.
"Rose! Oh my god, are you okay? What happened? Why did you leave us? It was really strange no one but Mia and I could remember you. Every time I brought you up on a conversation everyone would stare at me as if I was crazy." Eddie told Rose as he rushed over and hugged her. Most of what he just said made no sense, Rose didn't leave us we just met her and Mia hasn't met her yet seeing how she is visiting St. Vladimir's with her father. The thing I still couldn't get is how Eddie knew Rose.
"How do you know Rose, Eddie?" I asked Eddie confused.
"How can you ask me that Belikov? Rose was, is one of my best friends. We both grew up together at St. Vladimir's. We've been through thick and thin together. It was Rose who found out the location of the Strigoi in the rescue mission. Rose why did you do that?" Eddie told me as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
"Yes Eddie I'm okay. Eddie you know I couldn't just leave you to the Strigoi. I am so sorry that I had to leave St. Vlads but Kirova told me if I didn't leave the academy Dimitri would be sent to Tarasov. So I left and Kirova told compelled everyone to forget I even existed. I'm really happy that you didn't forget about me. I have been living in Australia for the past year believing that no one knew I existed. I was so happy when I found out that Tasha could remember me and now you and Mia as well." Rose told Eddie hugging him tightly. What is she talking about? Maybe the amnesia is still affecting her.
"Why would Headmistress Kirova have sent me to jail if you didn't leave the school?" I asked shocked even though in the back of my mind I remembered that Rose didn't even go to St. Vladimir's. Eddie was nodding his head at Rose to tell her to say something. Whatever something is.
"The reason I was made to leave was … Dimitri, you were my mentor and I was you student. You were twenty-four and I was seventeen and we were in love. We both knew that we couldn't and shouldn't be together. We fought our attraction so hard but in the end we just couldn't help ourselves. We were both apart of the rescue mission that my mother, Guardian Janine Hathaway, was leading. All of the hostages had been saved and the Strigoi were slowly losing the fight. As we were heading towards the exit of the caves the Strigoi set a trap and you faltered. I had never seen you hesitate before but you did hesitate because I was there and you were looking out for me. I started to head back for you, and more Strigoi appeared but I didn't care all that mattered was you. Together, you and I took down the remaining Strigoi and escaped the caves. When we reached the exit we were so relieved to both be alive we kissed. We didn't realize we had an audience and we didn't care. We were both dragged to Kirova's office. She made us believe that we could be together but she tricked us. She gave me the choice and you know what happened next." She told me sobbing into Eddie's shoulder. How twisted would a person have to be to come up with a story like that? Her lie made me think about Marie again. I don't ever let myself think about her around other people because I usually end up crying.
"How could you even come up with lie like that and expect me to believe it? I don't know how you did it but you got Eddie to play along with this sick joke but I expected more from a guardian. I would have remembered mentoring someone like you! The only student I mentored died last year when Strigoi kidnapped her and her friends last year. She and her twin brother, Mason Ashford, were both killed in Spokane by selflessly putting the Moroi and Eddie before themselves." I yelled at Rose. For some reason Rose started to sob more violently into Eddie's shoulder.
"I know … all too well … what happened at … Spokane." She sobbed/yelled at me.
"What do you mean?" I asked. Rose nudged Eddie's arm asking him to explain for her.
"Seriously Belikov you want to really know what happened at Spokane. Yes, Mason did die in Spokane but there was no such student at St. Vladimir's called Marie Ashford. What really happened was Mason, Mia and I went out to hunt Strigoi down at the shopping centre in Spokane. When Rose, here," Eddie pointed at Rose, "figured out what we were doing she and Christian went after us to bring us back to the Ski Resort. As we were trying to find our way back, three humans ambushed us. We put up a fight but when one of them grabbed Mia we had to follow them quietly. After a couple of days being held hostage Rose came up with a plan. It almost succeeded but the two Strigoi caught Rose and were planning on torturing her. Mason went back for her and was murdered; Rose was so upset she found the strength to kill both of the Strigoi. That is why no one could figure out why the Strigoi were decapitated. It was because Rose was there but everyone forgot." Eddie explained to me in a calm voice but by the way Eddie was crushing Rose I could tell he was really upset about having to relive Mason's death.
As I stared into Rose's eyes I felt a massive weight lift of my shoulders. All the lies that Kirova planted in my head vanished revealing the truth. I remembered mentoring Rose, falling in love with her, Rose struggling to deal with the ghosts, the cabin, the attack on the academy, the rescue mission, me getting taken down by the Strigoi, Rose coming and saving me, our kiss and me being so happy about Kirova allowing us to be together. It feels like I can finally see colour after being in a world of black and white for a year. "Roza?" I asked dumbfounded, "Oh Roza it's you. I can't believe I forgot about you." I rushed as I moved closer to hug Roza, but as I moved closer to Roza flinched further into Eddie. Jealousy swept through me.
"Please Dimitri, just please stay away from me. I need to figure out some things." Rose sobbed before running out of the room. I started to run after her but Eddie grabbed my arm. Allowing Tasha to slip past me out of the room.
"What?" I yelled at him.
"Belikov just remember she's been all by herself for a year. She wouldn't have done it without a reason and that reason was to keep you safe. Everyday she for the last year she would have had to isolate herself to keep all her friends safe, knowing that none of them remembered her would have hurt beyond comprehension. If she needs time you have to give it to her, it is the least you can do." Eddie told me with a level head. I have to admit I have grown to respect Eddie while working with him and I appreciate what he is trying to tell me now.
"I know. Thank you Eddie for being such good friends to both Rose and me. I will take your advice if need be. I've got to go now." I told Eddie before running towards Viktor's house. I didn't know where she was but that was a good a starting place as any. As I was getting close to the house I noticed a flash of fire shoot through the door and heard Tasha scream before I saw a group of Strigoi leave the house. I was about to call for back up when I saw a woman that looked strangely familiar run out of the house with Rose carried over her shoulder.
"ROZA!" I screamed as I ran after them. Even though I ran as fast as I could there was no way I could match the speed of a Strigoi. I knew I wouldn't catch them but that didn't stop me running after her. After I could no longer see them I turned and headed back to Viktor's house to see if Tasha was all right and to get more help. As I entered the house I saw Tasha passed out of the floor with a worried looking Lissa trying to heal her. Tasha's arm was twisted to an unnatural position and she had bite wounds on her neck.
"What happened here?" Lissa asked me seeing how I was flustered and out of breath.
"I don't know. When I arrived a bunch Strigoi ran out of the house with Viktor and Rose. Princess I know this is going to sound strange but Rose is your best friend. You have to remember her, you have to break the compulsion over you to save Rose. Remember Rose you grew up with her, she was there at the car crash. Rose died in that crash and you brought her back to life. Rose is Shadow-Kissed to you and I need you to use that bond to find Rose." I told Lissa calmly hoping that would be enough to break Kirova's compulsion. Suddenly Lissa gasped. She remembered.
"Dimitri … what happened?" Lissa asked confused. Well it seems as though the master at compulsion has never been compelled before.
"You were compelled, Lissa. Everyone was compelled to forget Rose. She has been living in Australia for the last year. Now I need you to find Rose." I explained to Lissa.
"Dimitri, as much as I want to help, you know the bond is one way only Rose can do that. We've been through this before remember." Lissa told me.
"No that is not entirely true. Remember when I told you that a family friend is a Spirit user? Well she also has a bond mate, her husband. Over the years they have perfected being able to communicate through the bond, which make the bond two way allowing Oksana to slip into Mark's head as well. We obviously don't have as much time to perfect it so I need to you think of every happy memory you have had before. Are you thinking about it?" I asked Lissa. She nodded her head, "Okay while thinking about your memories I need you to call out to Rose through the bond. Can you do that?" Lissa nodded again, "Just keep concentrating until you lock onto Rose." I told Lissa hoping it would work. Oksana only ever told me the basics of how her bond works and I just making the rest up on the way. I called the guardians to alert them to that the wards were down, that a Dhampir and a Royal Dhampir – they instantly knew it was Viktor because there were no other royal Dhampir's - was taken hostage and Lady Ozera was injured.
After about 5 minutes of concentrating Tasha started to stir. I quickly went over to her to find out what happened. "Tasha are you okay? What happened?" I asked her already knowing that her injuries were healed.
"Yeah … I don't feel sore at all." Tasha said puzzled until she saw Lissa sitting in the corner of the room concentrating she realised Lissa had healed her; Tasha's eyes went wide. "Lissa! Thank you for healing me. What are you doing?" Tasha screamed at Lissa breaking her concentration. NO! Lissa needs to be totally focused.
"Tasha it's okay. I'm trying to find Rose so please be quite." Lissa whispered to Tasha still trying to keep concentration.
"Oh okay," Tasha said, "How will you do that?" Tasha not allowing Lissa to concentrate. Strange why would Tasha do that?
"Tasha would you please come over here?" I asked Tasha trying to get her away from Lissa. Strangely she looked miffed at being made to leave Lissa alone, "You still haven't explained what happened."
"Oh right, when Rose ran off I followed her back to here I heard her scream and rushed inside the house to find at least 8 Strigoi surrounding her and Viktor. Oh my GOD! Viktor is he alright?" Tasha told me. Her voice started out normal and grew in volume until she was shouting.
The guardians stormed the house just as Lissa yelled, "Got her!" While the guardians assessed the house I took Lissa back to her "house" to put her under lockdown. In reality we headed to the closest park.
"I found her Dimitri, I found her! I did what you said and focused on memories of us as we were growing up and when we ran away. Well I did that and I got sucked into her head – like she does to me - I felt all her emotions running through her head. Love, fear, anger, regret, stupidity, hunger. I saw that she was on a plane with Viktor passed out on the seat next to her. Surprisingly her fear, anger and stupidity felt strongest when she was staring at him. Just before she fell asleep there was an announcement over the P.A. system saying that they landing in Omsk soon. She's in Russia." Lissa said excitedly. It's just like Rose to be worried about food at a time like this but what does the rest of her emotions mean? Love, it is probably her love for Lissa and Me. Regret for leaving all her friends behind with out a fight. Stupidity for not being able to deal with the Strigoi. Fear, for being surrounded in a plane full of Strigoi. But anger for what? Why did her fear, anger and stupidity heighten when she looked at Viktor? Oh. My. GOD. He's doing it again, Viktor is trying to destroy my happiness. Viktor kidnapped Rose along with Tasha. Tasha stayed here to make it seem like an attack but it was organised. Both Viktor and Tasha knew that Lissa would heal Tasha in a heart-beat, that is why Tasha was trying to distract Lissa.
"Tasha and Viktor planned to kidnap Rose. We need to get to Russia now or we may never see Rose alive again." I told Lissa before picking her up and running to get the help of Eddie, Christian, Mia, Janine and Mikhail Tanner. Just hang in there Rose, I thought.
I hope you all enjoyed the chapter I tried to keep the dialogue and scenes the same but I found that I didn't describe them fully in the last couple of chapters so I just built on them. This is the largest chapter I've done so far with 5612 words. Please review to tell me what you think. I'm not going to request a certain amount of reviews because I feel that would be unfair of me after not up dating for so long. But please review because I really need the inspiration. Thank you all for reading this story and for all the new story alerts and favourite stories really cheered me up today.
