Wow! You guys are amazing. I mean WOW. :) Hope you love Love LOVE this story.
Previously: Well, here I go. To a new place. A place away from the drama that was usually in my life.
I put in my ipod and listened to a Taylor Swift song. I rolled my eyes as the plane left the ground.
Washington is exactly how I expected it to be. Wet and dreary. I thought looking out the window of the plane and tried to look at the sun but it was deeply hidden behind a thick layer of clouds.
We had already landed and now everyone was stretching. Well I guess everyone knew what Washingtons weather is like since that damn Twilight movie. I grabbed my bag and walked out of the plane. I retrieved my suitcase and walked out unto the platform.
"Rosemarie Hathaway?" Said a deep voice next to me. I winced once but turned to see a buff bald guy with brown eyes.
"Its just Rose." He nodded once and wrote something down on a clipboard he had.
"This way." He walked toward the doors. I followed him and was surprised at the Honda waiting for us. Usually the academys provided boring and though they were new, they were pretty ordinary. I considered my self a more outspoken car person.
"So, what's the academys name?" I needed to hear someone else's voice, needed to distract myself.
"Madisons Academy" He grunted.
"Oh thats cool, My school was named after St. Vladimir." He didn't say anything.
"Great coversationalist." I murmered.
After another hour of boring and tedious driving we finally reached a big black intricate gate. On the side there was a small booth with a guardian inside. My graceful driver grunted a few words to the guy in the toll booth and he(the guy in the toll booth) pulled on a lever and the gate opened with a very loud squeak.
Behind the gates was a damn mansion. It was smaller than St. Vlads but it clearly had a lot of money.
Me and baldy got out of the car and he led me inside the building. Always keeping 5 steps behind me. No one was in the halls so I presumed that they were all at class. It was wierd walking through a another school. I had never been to another vampire academy before.
I wondered if they were doing their field experience too. After a few halls we arrived outside a big wooden door.
"The headmaster's quarters is right through those doors, he'll explain everything to you." I nodded. I glanced at the guardian who was now walking away and then to the big wooden door.
I knocked hesitantly and waited, a deep voice called,
"Come on in." I unsuspectantly opened the wrong door because inside this one was a damn god and not like the god Dimitri was. I means his looks, he had dirty blonde hair and green eyes. He looked perfect, a god. What the hell? Didn't I just leave St. Vlads escaping Russian gods?
"Ah, you must be Rosemarie Hathaway." He had a slight Russian accent. Damn.
"It's just Rose." He nodded once smiling, I couldn't help but look into his hazel eyes.
"So its says in your records that you were a fairly well student but with a few problems in the last couple of years. Exactly why did you take Princess Dragomir away from a safe environment for the past 2 years?" I grimaced, How the hell did they not put that on my records?
"It's a long story but basically, this assho- Victor Dashkov was pretty much harrassing Lissa and I didn't know who it was at the time so I took Lissa away to protect her." I explained.
"Yes, I've heard about the Victor Dashkov incident." He pursed those full soft-looking lips of his. I nodded once and looked down as he looked through some other files.
"I'm impressed Rose, even though you were gone for two years you managed to catch up in your physical classes."
"I had an okay mentor." I growled. He raised a brow but said nothing.
"Dimitri Belikov?" My head snapped up.
"How do you know that?"
"It's in your files."
"Oh." After a few more minutes of shuffling papers, he spoke up.
"Well, the good thing of being headmaster of a small school is that things here run pretty quickly." He handed me a piece of paper that he claimed was my new schedule.

"Band? Why am I in band?"
"Well since all the other electives are full, band is the only one open."
"But I don't even play an instrument."
"I know, your in a freshman class."
"But thats dumb, why don't you put me in like art or cooking, something I might use In life."
"You don't strike me as a making meat casseroles and pottery kind of girl."
"You guessed right." I smirked. "But do I strike you as a glasses and pigtails type of girl?"
"You've got a point." He laughed. "Let me check some things."
After another minute of ruffling through more papers, he finally smiled at me,
"The only thing other than Band would be Tutoring. I don't think you had it at your old school, but its when you go to some of the lower levels to tutor. Preferably freshman but sophmores can be tutored too." This sounds promising.
"Okay. I'll choose that."
"Alright, let me print out a new schedule than." He handed me my new schedule and a map.
"Well, we weren't really expecting a new student so I guess I'll just show you the school."
"Oh and where exactly am I going to stay?"
"That will be the first place we'll visit. Room 311." He led me out of the buildiing and to another one that I assumed was the Dhampir dorm. My room was on the third floor and while we walked I saw that no one was in the halls. I had almost forgotten that It wa technically 'night' even though I wasn't tired at all.
"Do I have a roomate?"
"No, everyone has they're own room." I felt myself relieved.
"And what about your field experience?"
"That doesn''t start until next month."
"But doesn't that give you like 2 months?"
"No, It gives us 3, this school starts later than your old one."
"Oh." Great. We stopped in front of a white door with the numbers 311 on the door in silver.
"Here we are. Go ahead and open it." I opened the unlocked door and looked at my new room.
"Wow. This is...nice." There was a full bed and dresser, a small flat screen TV in the corner of the room. It was a lot biggger than my old room. My suitcase was in the corner of the room.
"Thank you. So how about we go see the rest of the school."
We spent the next hour walking around the school. I asked questions like how big was the school and If the curriculum is harder. What I found out that There were about 300 students in the entire school and the classes were relatively the same. After the long walk, he showed me back to dorm.
"The rooms are organized very easily, the 3 in 311 is the floor and the 11 would mean that your room is on the left side." I nodded smiling and telling myself that those eyelashes are wasted on a guy.
As I walked in I heard him say,
"Oh and I've arranged that you start your classes tomorrow. That will give you an entire day to pack. The meal times are in one of the papers I have given you. I hope you enjoy Madison's academy."
"I'm sure I will." I smiled at him one more time but when I closed the dorr it turned into a grimace.
SOOOOO sorry I haven't updated. I could make up a list of really good excuses but I would still feel bad. Thanks sooo much for reading and reviewing. I love you guys. Next chapter will be up soon and we'll see how Rose's first day will go. :)
