Hi All
Sorry I haven't updated for so long, I've been very ill with the flu, I'm still not a hundred percent better yet, but I've managed to write chapter five, so please don't worry I have not stopped writing. Thank you to everyone who has commented.
I was thinking maybe giving up after I read Tinderbox725's review but I've decided not to let one bad review keep me from writing. I'm only writing for fun anyway and like I stated on my chapter one I am not a writer. I'm sorry if some people can't understand my wording, it's just I don't know a lot of American slang words. But I'm trying my best at keeping the story exciting and I hope you all continue to support my story.
Chapter Five
I woke up alert and ready for anything, I did as Zmey said, I had a good rest, and luckily I managed to fall asleep. I walked over to the little sink area, splashed my face with cold water and ran a bit through my hair. My hair was a mess, they could have given me a band or something to tie my hair back. But what the hell, I'll freshen myself up later when I'm out of here. I wonder what they are all doing at this moment, I suppose I could have a quick look.
I sat back down on the bed and tried to concentrate, It's was quite hard to concentrate because my mind was on other things. But after a while I managed to catch a glimpse. There wasn't much going on really, Lissa was looking down at some silver jewellery, I suppose Zmey found all that for her. I couldn't see much else and all I could hear was Lissa humming while she was concentrating. I cut the bond because it wasn't worth watching, I suppose I'll just have to sit here and wait but it's so boring in here.
I wonder how Adrian took the news, he's not going to like the fact that I don't want him with me on this mission, I wouldn't be surprised if he fights me on it later. Suddenly I heard the door open, "Rose Hathaway, you have a visitor" Mikhail walked in and the Guardian closed the door straight away. "A friend of yours" he walked over to me and shot me a grin "He's an acquaintance of mine yes". I just rolled my eyes at him "I see, so what have you got to tell me?" "I have been looking into things for you, but so far I have found nothing, but other than that I thought you might want to know that during the morning, the guardians will be taking part in a meeting, I assume it's either about you or the new age law". I gave him a dubious look "And why are you telling me this?" He just sneered at me "I don't know quite what's going on Rose, but don't insult my intelligence, I know you're plotting to escape, but don't worry I'm not here to expose you, I'm just delivering information which you could use to your advantage". This guy is too smart, "well thanks for the information, but I don't know why you think I can use this information". He smiled again "it's means Rose, most of the guardians will be at the meeting, there will only be a few on guard, I suppose they're thinking because the Moroi are asleep and it's daylight, people will be safe" He sniggered. He seems genuine enough but I'm still not a hundred percent sure about this guy, "I see, well thanks again for the heads up, but I think you're forgetting one thing, most of my friends are Moroi" He just rolled his eyes at me "I will meddle no more, I have given you the information and I have informed Vasilisa as well, I will leave you in peace now" he turned around, laughed a bit and then started walking to the doors. He is quite irritating, "I'm glad you find this all so amusing" He turned back to me "It is Rose, it's quite fascinating to hear about all the trouble you get in, but don't get me wrong, this is the last time I will help you out, I'm only helping because it is not correct for a innocent person to die for someone else's crimes." I gave him a smile and thought to myself at least someone other than my friends thinks I'm innocent. "I get the point, Thank you for all your help" he smiled and left me.
Great back to being alone again, I suppose at least we have a good advantage now, but I won't underestimate them though, it's still going to be hard with it being daytime. "Rose we're nearly done, the guardians are holding a meeting soon, Ibrahim has got all forms of travel ready and all the documents, you were right about him being like some sort of Mafia". Lissa was talking to me through the bond, she knows I'm listening, it's a shame I can't answer her and she hates that too. "Get yourself ready Rose alright, see you soon".
All I could do is sit and wait for everything to happen. It was a couple hours later before Lissa spoke to me again "Rose, the guardians have just started their meeting, we're coming to get you out now, but I will warn you, the plan has changed a lot, and don't blame me, it's not my doing, you can thank your father" I frowned at the last part, how's the plan changed? I have a feeling I'm not going to like this at all. Fifteen minutes later the door opened. it was Abe "You ready to get out of here" I glared at him 'Yeah I'm ready but what's this I hear you changing my plan", "We haven't got time for that right now, all I will say is your childish plan has been changed to a better one" I started to get angry "Childish" He cut me off "Enough, we need to get going now, I have the key" He started to unlock my cell "How did you get that" he smirked at me "I have my ways" Same old Abe, never gives up any information. He managed to unlock the door "Right, put this on and let's go" it was a silver necklace. We ran out the door, Mikhail was right, most of the guardians were at the meeting, Luckily Abe could use compulsion quite well for a non spirit user. We got to the entrance and I saw Mia, what's she doing here? Wait a minute she's using compulsion on the guards, that's not Mia, it's Lissa. "Why does Lissa look like Mia?" I asked "Like I said before, explanations later, escape first" Not much I can say to that, this plan seems to be working so far, although the next part is not going to be so easy, walking around in daylight.
We managed to get out alright, Abe led the rest of the way, to where we would meet the others I suppose. I assumed the change in the plan was that Lissa will be coming with me now. We got around the guardians quite quickly, just shows you how sneaky Abe is. We got to a car, Lissa and I got in the back, Abe then got in the front, "where are the others" Lissa answered me "They have gone on ahead of us, we will meet them at the plane" wow Lissa even sounds like Mia, Abe started the engine " Vasilisa now" Lissa nodded to him "Sorry rose, but I've got to make you look like a feeder", I didn't really like that idea but it will look less suspicious. 'Fine go ahead" Lissa sunk her teeth in me, it really does hurt at first but the feeling after is ecstasy. I couldn't really understand what was going on after that, all I heard was Abe talking to the guard but couldn't make out what he was saying.
When I came too, we had already stopped, "are you awake Rose" I looked at Lissa and smiled "Yep" I got out the car and saw a small plane, Abe came up to me, He hand me a phone "Now take this, you can contact me on this, it's none traceable, Sydney will also be reachable on this phone, She knows what's happening and will be waiting for your call if you need her help" I smiled 'Thanks, but what about you" " I will go back and keep an eye on things, now go and good luck" I nodded at him and ran to the plane with Lissa.
We got inside the plane and I saw Christian and Eddie in their seats already, apparently one of Abe's friends is flying us over to Las Vegas, "well everything has worked so far and I'm glad you stuck to some of my plan" Lissa looked a little nervous now "what's wrong, you suddenly look really worried" she just said "We'll talk about it after we have taken off" I just shrugged at her "Alright, no problems, by the way, why do you sound like Mia?" "Oh me and Adrian combined our spirit powers and made the charms stronger" the radio came on then "This is James speaking, we are ready for takeoff" Lissa and I quickly took our seats.
We took off alright, I and Lissa were at the front of the plane, and Eddie and Christian were in the back. I tried to get up to go and speak to them but Lissa stopped me by grabbing my arm. I sat back down again wondering what was wrong. She took off her charm and I took mine off as well "what's wrong Lissa?' She looked straight into my eyes "Rose you're not going to like what I'm about to tell you, but please don't blame me, it was not my idea, Ibrahim planned it all" I was getting really confused now 'Blame you for what, what's going on Lissa" My voice sounded very demanding then "Rose, Eddie and Christian aren't really here" Now I'm really confused "What are you talking about, they're right" I stopped then and thought a little "Lissa please don't tell me that they are who I think they are" Lissa put her head down 'Sorry Rose, it wasn't my fault, Ibrahim said it would be better this way" I didn't dare look back I just kept talking to Lissa but this time a little more harsh "I suppose what's done is done now, but I'm not happy one bit Lissa" she kept her head down and I turned away and looked out the window.
After a five minute silence, Christian came up to us, I didn't know which one was which, but I'm guessing Christian is actually Adrian. I just ignored them both, Lissa got up and went over to Eddie who I assume is Dimitri. Christian sat down "stop sulking Rose, did you really think that you would go on this mission without me and Lissa" Definitely Adrian "That was the plan" I said in a harsh voice. "It wasn't my idea to bring him along Rose, I don't like the idea of him here either but I have to admit, he is very strong, stronger than Eddie" I carried on ignoring him but there was truth in his words, one thing me and Dimitri were good at and that was fighting together. Adrian pulled my face around to him then, he had taken off charm, he wiped away my tears, I didn't even know I was crying "Don't cry Rose, I'm here for you" I smiled a little then, I did feel relieved that he was with me really, he put his arm around me and I put my head of his shoulder. I felt a little awkward knowing Dimitri was sitting in the back, but resting on Adrian's shoulder felt really comfortable.
I rested on Adrian's shoulder until Lissa spoke to me through the bond "Rose, I don't mean to interrupt but I think we should go through everything now before we land in Las Vegas" I lifted my head up of Adrian's shoulder "What's wrong" He said "Lissa wants to go through things before we land" He pulled his arm from around me "Ok" He gave me a quick smile and sat on the seat behind me. Lissa came up then and sat back down beside me, she didn't know where to look at first "It's alright Lissa, I'm not angry at you, if you say it was Abe's idea then fine, sorry I snapped at you" she looked at me then and smiled a little. "Just tell him to keep that charm on, it will be much easier for me that way" her smiled disappeared then "Let's forgot about all that right now, I need to explain everything"
I nodded at her "Alright"
