Well here's my chapter three, I'm finally getting to the escape part now, and then Rose will be on her way to solve the mystery lol. Hope you enjoy it.

Chapter Three

"So what's made you so upset then, apart from the obvious" Adrian spoke in a cheerful voice, "Oh I just felt like crying, what do you thinks wrong with me". I snapped a little, but it's not his fault I'm stuck in here. Adrian pulled away then and just sat beside me. "Sorry Adrian, I shouldn't be snapping at you like that". Adrian smiled then, I always liked the way he smiled. "That's alright, I think I would be the same if I was in your situation", He then came a little closer and put his arm around me. "So what can I do for you, Little Dhampir", that was my queue to tell him, he's not going to like this.

I wiped away my tears and sat in front of him, he looked a little concerned then. "Adrian I need you to come and visit me, do whatever you have to do". Now he looked really worried. "What's going on? Something wrong Rose?", "It's alright, I just have something very important to show you, it concerns Lissa and your aunt". Adrian's face, well I don't know how to describe it really. "Rose what's going on", I took a deep breath and spoke, "I will explain when you come, but don't tell anyone, only a few people will be able to know about this Adrian, and I've picked you as one of them". "Alright, chill Rose, I'll come tomorrow".

We were both silent for a little while, but then Adrian spoke, "So I heard Dimitri came to see you today". Nice one, this is not going to go very well, "How did you find out about that?" Adrian looked really sad now. "I have my ways Rose", yeah I know, Lissa I bet. "Yes he came to see me", Adrian cut me off then, "Is that why you were crying". I knew he was going to ask that, "I was crying for a lot of things Adrian but yes one reason was because of Dimitri", Adrian put his head down but I could see that he was angry. "Chill Adrian, I was saying goodbye and to be honest, it hurt". "I'm sorry Rose, I'm trying to understand, but it's hard". Adrian gave me a small smirk, I felt so sorry for him, he's stuck between me and dimitri, but I can't think like that anymore, I've got other things to deal with now. "Adrian I know it's hard, but I need time to heal", I paused and thought would it even be possible to heal myself. "Let's leave it there for today, Adrian". He lifted his head and put one hand on each shoulder. "Alright Rose, I will see you tomorrow, Goodnight Little Dhampir". He kissed my forehead and Adrian faded away.

I woke up after that and just laid there thinking, how am I going to find this child? How is Lissa going to take all this? Should I even tell her? Of course I've got to tell her. First things first, how am I going to get out of here, I suppose I'm going to need Lissa's or Adrian's help on that matter. After all my debating in my head, the door opened, who could it be at this time?

It was Guardian Mikhail.

I heard a whisper, "Rose, are you awake?", "How the hell did you get in, let me guess you pulled some strings?" I stood up and walked to the bars. "Yeah, something like that, what did you want to discuss with me?" "It's more like a favour", I decide not to tell Mikhail everything, but I could get him to dig around a bit. He arched his left eye brow, "I see, and what favour would that be?" I gave him a little smirk, "Let's just say I need you to do some digging on anything you can find out about Vasilisa's father, Eric Dragomir". He looked very surprised now, "Any sort of information will be of help". He was glaring at me now, "and why do you want information on Eric Dragomir", Damn this is going to be harder than I thought, "I'm just trying to do some research on Vasilisa's family, I want to know if there is anything special about them like Lissa". His face had not changed but his voice was a little more harsh, "Why do you ask now of all times". I gave him a quick sarcastic remark, "Well I can't very well do it myself now, can I". He shrugged it off, I think that may have worked. "So will you try?" He replied "Very well, I will see what I can find out, is there anything else?"

"Yes, one more thing, can you deliver a message to, Vasilisa, I want to see her as soon as possible, I just need to see her, but not Dimitri" I quietly said the last part, but he heard me, I hope he's thinking I'm just feeling lonely. He just nodded and walked to the door. Before he went out the door I shouted "Thank you Mikhail". He gave me a wave and the door closed.

I suppose I could of got Adrian to bring Lissa as well, but I didn't want Lissa all worried when I tell her, this way, she'll think she's coming to cheer me up. The next person will be Zmey, he's got many connections, not to mention money, I need him on board, plus he'll help with the escape I'm sure.

All I know is, the fewer people know, the fewer people Dimitri will interrogate, I know he will try his best to find out what's going on, that's why I didn't need Mikhail knowing everything, Dimitri's seen him now. Lissa will be staying behind, I will need her to keep an eye on Dimitri, and Adrian I hope will stay too. Dimitri won't get anything out of them surely, Lissa's Stubborn and Adrian, well he's Adrian, I laughed to myself. As for Abe, well let's not go there.

After Abe, I have two other people in mind, but Lissa's not going to like my first choice. But enough planning for now, Lissa should be awake by now, I suppose I'd better see how everything's going.

That's the end of chapter three, I know it's a lame ending, but I've been working out my characters and where I want my story to go.

I don't expect to get much done now until the weekend because of work. But come weekend, I'll be typing like mad lol.
