I've been having a bad feeling all day now. I insisted on Dimitri to stay home and bond with his family, while Lissa and I went out for a walk. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but now, it didn't.

Lissa was whimpering behind me. I had my stake in hand and was on alert. We were on a green field, not far from the Belikov's but right now; it seemed like the farthest thing in the world.

Strigoi were surrounding us now, and they were all smirking and snarling.

"Kill the kid." said the leader and when Lissa was snatched from my back, I turned and was more hurt and worried then mad.

"Leave her alone. It's me you want, let the child go." the leader smirked.

"If you come with us silently, yes we will leave the child alone." I looked at my baby, and I knew I what I was going to do. I nodded. They let Lissa go and she ran to me.

"Mommy, come home with me." tears were in my eyes now as I looked at her worried face.

"Run back to, Daddy, baby. Don't worry about me." I kissed her head and I felt her cling to me.

"Mommy!" she had tears falling from her eyes. I looked at her and sighed.

"Go to, Daddy baby." I hugged her. "I'll try to be there as soon as possible." I whispered for only her to hear.

"Promise?" I nodded and she let go, running back to the Belikov's.

"I'll come." they nodded and I looked over my shoulder, and bowing my head, I followed.

I ran like Mommy told me too. I ran to Daddy. Tears were falling from my eyes as I opened the door.

"Daddy!" I cried and I heard something from the living room so I ran in and jumped into Daddy's arms and I cried.

"What's wrong, Baby?" I cried into his shoulder and then he realised Mommy wasn't here. "Where's Mommy?" I looked at him and tears fell from my eyes silently.

"Big mean, pale men took her." Daddy looked sad and confused. "The mean man said he would let me go if Mommy went with them." I saw the tears in Daddy's eyes and he hugged me tight and I cried.

"We have to call Vanilisa. Get her to send some guardians over." I heard someone say 'yes' before Daddy walked me up the stairs and put me into Mommy and Daddy's bed. I grabbed the pillow that smelled like Mommy and fell asleep crying.

VPOVI was in my office talking to Alberta, Janine and Abe, who was Rose's father, she would be so happy to finally meet him. My phone started to ring and I answered.

"Your Majesty." Dimitri said on the other end. I sighed and laughed slightly. "Dimitri, you're my personal guardian so for you it's Liss."

"Liss, I need you to send over guardians." his voice was worrying my and my smile faded.

"Dimitri?" I was worried and I knew my voice showed how worried I was.

"Rose was taken by Strigoi in exchange for Lissa's life, we have to find her." tears formed in my eyes and I knew they were showing. Alberta, Janine and Abe were looking at me now.

"We'll be over with a pack full." I hung up and placed my head in my hands. Christian came behind me and rubbed my shoulders. Tears were escaping my eyes. I took a deep breath and pulled my head up.

"Rose was taken by a pack of Strigoi, in exchange for Lissa's life." I repeated Dimitri's words. Pin flashed through everyone's eyes and I sighed. "Get a team ready, and be ready in an Hour." I walked out.

I groaned as I was thrown on a hard and rocky floor. Pebbles dug into my leg and my arms burned form being tied tightly. I heard some whimpers from ids behind me. As soon as my capturer left, I looked over at the kids.

There were two of them. One about three and the other ten. They were both Dimpher.

"Hey." I said and they looked scared. I sighed. "My name is Rose." I said trying a different approach. "What's yours?"

"I'm Riley." said the three year old. She had red-ish brown hair and green eyes.

"Anora." the ten year old was a fist one and I had to laugh.

"I'm going to help you two out." Anora laughed. She had dark blond hair and blue eyes.

"Yeah right, no one can save us now." I snorted and Riley murmured something but I didn't hear it, all I heard was Anora answering.

"Yeah, if Rosemarie Hathaway was here, we would be so out of here!" I laughed and looked at the girls.

"Then we will be outta here." they looked at me.

"You said your name was Rose?" I nodded. "Rosemarie makes me sound like some old woman with no life so I take of the 'Marie' and am now Rose Hathaway." they looked at me. Riley ran over to me and hugged me but Anora didn't seem too confined because she kept hounding me.

"Who's your best friend?"

"Queen Vanilisa Dragimor or Liss as I call her."

"How did you two become friends?" I snorted.

"We were about five and we had the same elementary teacher. She was forcing me to write 'Rosemarie Hathaway' while Liss had to write 'Vanilisa Dragimor.' so I got annoyed and threw a dictionary at her head calling her a 'fascist basterd' not knowing what it meant." Anora seemed to like my answer.

"Hello Rose, so how are we going to get out of here?" I laughed.

"First, you have to untie me." Anora did as I asked her to do and then I took of my jacket and gave it to Riley. She looked freezing. She smiled at me and I smiled back.

"How long have you been here?"

"Few days." I nodded and looked around. There wasn't a window and there was no wood or anything. I sighed. I still had my hidden stake and I had some clips, but I also had my chain. I sighed.

"We might be here for longer then I thought." there eyes went dark and Riley cried slightly. I picked her up and cuddled her to my chest.

"Our mom and dad were killed by them." I sighed and looked at Anora. I at my arms around her.

"When we get out of here, I'd like you to stay with me then." Anora's eyes lit up and I smiled. Riley and Anora fell asleep at me side.

Please tell me you're not as dumb as I think.
