Hey guys thanks for all the reviews, glad your liking the story so far I am trying to work on it as much as possible between work and my son. I hope everyone likes it I had some trouble working on this chapter. Sorry for any grammer issues ahead my computer is being a pain and will not check my work over for grammer and spelling problems.
Chapter seven
I was in my room trying to pack for my trip with Christian bugging me about everything I was packing. I normally wear my guardian attire at work but on missions I go casual or sometimes even wear a dress to change things up. I was already nervous about this because I knew I had to deal with both Lissa and Dimitri and it was a scary thought. I was hoping we could all stay civalized but knowing me there is a good possibility thats not going to happen. I was trying to choose between some different jeans when there was a knock on my door.
"It's open" I was hoping it would be Luka so I could explain what was going on but it was another Guardian from the school his name was Jimmy Wilson. We were pretty close and he was a great guy. He worked over on the elementary campus but occasionaly would come and help me with class or come try to learn a few moves from me. He was really attractive, tall around 6'4 and had emerald green eyes and blonde hair that he wore kind of shaggy, he was about 26 and from somewhere in europe but I dont remember where exactly. I called him my meditteranian prince because he had a nice tan and the accent and most female students wanted to chase him around. I was so lost in trought about this trip that I didnt realize he was holding an envelope until he walked towards me.
"Hathaway, I got a letter for you. I also wanted to wish you good luck and tell you to bring yourself back in one piece. If you need anything done while you are gone call me and I will take care of it for you." He had a genuine smile on his face and it made him so much cuter. I gave him a smile back and took the envelope. It had no return address or anything which was normally odd but I brushed it off and sit the letter down. I turned back to see Wilson about to leave.
"Thanks Jimmy, If i need anything I will call you. Thank you for dropping this off." I smiled and he turned and walked out the door. I was too busy packing to think about the letter now and I still need to see Luka. I looked over at the clock to realize I only had about 45 minutes before the plane will be arriving so I decided to take a quick shower and change before leaving. I told chris I would be out in a minute and went to the bathroom about ten minutes later I was showered and getting dress when Chris knocked on the bathroom door.
"Hey Rosie Luka is here and he is waiting so hurry up you dont have much time before you need to go." I know he wasn't happy I had to leave but I figure he has to get use to it, I mean if we are ever thinking of trying to work out something then we need to know this is going to happen I get called away every couple months and he knows that but he also knows I can decline but I never do. I finished getting dressed and walked out of the bathroom drying my hair with a towel. I smiled at a very pissed off Luka.
"Luka I got a mission and you will be working with a new guardian to the school while I am away. He is a very good friend of mine we graduated together and he was second highest in the class you will like him, he can be fun. His name is Guardian Castile, he is guardian to the last Dragomir and he is very skilled when it comes to threats so do good for him and try not to kick his ass too bad please." I was smiling and Christian looked like he was going to laugh at my last comment. Luka still wasn't happy but he gave me a small smile. I knew he wanted to try and go on these missions with me but I didnt want to take him nowhere until it was closer to graduation so he was better trained.
"Ok G Hathaway I will behave to my best ability but you are leaving Chrissy here for me to harass right?" I laughed at him and Chris was giving him glares. Luka does Chris like I use to do him with the snarky comments and the evil pranks. I am sure while I am gone that him and Eddie will gang up on Chris and the poor boy will have too much to deal with and nobody to try to protect him. I just knew that this was going to be bad for Chris.
"Yes Luka, Chris will be here but dont be too rough on him I dont need him calling me crying about how you are abusing him." I was grinning and Chris was giving both of us death glares now."Oh Sparky you know we secretly like you so thats why we beat you and do evil things." I got a even worse glare then before and that made me and Luka both laugh at him. I decided to finish getting ready and after about ten minutes I was ready and packed. I said goodbye to Luka and Christian before heading to the air strip.
...
I was in the air on my jet my dad had bought me for these missions. The jet had about 15 seats and was very nice. I had takin the back room that he had and turned into a storage for my extra weapons and gear. I had secret compartment full of guns, stakes and other different weapons. I had even had a Moroi scientist experiment and come up with special bullets for me they were like stakes and infused with the elements. The bullets were made to kill Strigoi with out getting to close and they were made to go in a 9mm. I had only tried them once and they had worked so I liked them. I also had special swords made of silver for me I was a deadly killing machine when it came to Strigoi. Strigoi had a hit on me and whoever killed me would be hugely rewarded yet nothing has gotten me and as far as i'm concerned they never will.
I had been in the back room getting my gear and weapons ready when I heard the flight attended knock. I hit the button to close all the compartments to make the room look like a work area instead. I then went to see what she wanted. I opened the door to a dhamphir named Jessica, my father hired her to work as an attended on my plane to make us comfortable. She was very pretty, she had sholder length blonde hair and big hazel eyes. I always thought she was too pretty to be working on my plane because she would distract my team but she normally stayed to herself so I wasnt so worried about her after awhile. She was smiling at me as I walked out of my room.
"Ma'am we are getting close to decent and we are going to need you in a seat soon to buckle up. I wanted to know if you would like anything before we have to bucle up?" She was always so consederate. I just shook my head no to her and gave her a small smile.
"Thank you but I am very well. I will go take my seat so we can land soon." I walked up to the front of the plane to my normal seat in next to the door. I sat down and buckled in. About 20 minutes later we had landed and were about to depart the plane. I had got up to grab my bags and make sure I had all weapons ready to go. I grabbed my bags and desented to see a black SUV awaiting me and standing beside it was my uncle Pavel. I was never so happy to be back with my family.
...
We were at my father's place in Russia it was a mansion so it was pretty big. I had already taken my things to my room on the second floor. I was now in search of my father in his office. I got to his office doors and knocked. Pavel opened the door and nodded to me before ushering me into the huge office. I smiled when I seen my father but I quickly lost it when I noticed the others in the room. Sitting on a couch were Lissa and Dimitri and there were also my two old partners Justin Mattox and Alexander Radu. My father smiled at me and I decide to walk straight over to him.
"Baba it's good to be here. So what do you got for me so I can get this set up and please tell me I have more then these three?" I grinned back at the boys. I know they are all good at what they do and I plan on making Dimitri Lissa's close guard since they work together all the time anyways. Now I just have to figure out the plan and what we are doing and all.
"Kiz have a seat and I will let the Princess explain what she is here for and I will give you the list to choose who you want to work with. I tried to get Johnston back but he said he can't make it and that he is sorry you won't have your best guy here to protect you." I had to laugh at what Johnston said. Normally my group consisted of Justin, Alex and Bradley Johnston, they were the best and they were my guys we had all worked together closely and still do when we go on these missions. We are a well organized machine and we had never lost a battle but with one man down I knew we were going to have to be extra careful with a plan.
I went to sit down on a chair across from Lissa. I was sitting like a little girl with my legs tucked underneath me and everyone was looking at me funny. I was about to laugh because they all looked so suprised. I decided to glare at them and they all looked down except my baba and he chuckled at me and how I could scare everyone. Lissa finally looked around to everyone and made sure she had the attention before talking.
"So I am in Russia for an important deal we are working on. Adrian and I are trying to get the dhampirs more freedoms and better accomidations as Guardians. We have finally got female dhampir numbers up and more females are becoming guardians thanks to Rose. We have had alot of success with the new academy and now that there are more Dhampir-Moroi relationships going on there is a higher rate of dhampirs being born. We are trying to keep raising the populations of both races and since your little team has been lowering the number of the strigoi population the races have a better chance now. So we are working with people here to form more groups like yours to work on Strigoi control. We already have Queen Ivashkov on our side now we need to get some more important rulers on board and then we will work on recruting for these groups." She turned and looked at me directly, "Rose I need you on this, you have the group and you have been working on removing the strigoi from the world for over seven years now and we need you to help with teaching and persuading this idea. I will need you to teach the ones that will be in these groups how to fight. I will need them trained hard and by the best, the students who are chosen we will send to you at the academy for you to teach. I need to know that you will help me." She was looking at me attentively and I was a little shocked about what they wanted done.
"Lissa I will do this but only because it will help with our survival I will try to work and train with whoever you need me too." I turned towards my dad, "Baba is this why you wanted me to start working with Luka so early, did you know this was going on?" I was watching my father very closely and I could tell he knew this already but of course he did he knows everything. "Ok I can tell from that look Baba. Lissa we will work on this now I need to know what we are going to be doing so I can get in touch with my back-up to get them here." Everyone was silent for a few moments just looking at me. I think Lissa and Dimitri were in shock that I agreed so easily, though I do believe it is a good cause so why not be part of it.
"We will be meeting three different people while here in Russia. Abe is one of them because he has the backing in the Moroi world to help with this proposal, also we will be meeting Mr. Badica in St. Petersburg and also Mr. Conta in Baia they both have high backing along the Moroi world. I will also need to visit St. Basil's Academy while here to talk with a few Guardians there. So we will only have three visits while in this country. I will be discussing with Mr. Mazur while you are getting your team together. I hope to have this all done with in two weeks I would like to get back to my life at court and I understand that you all have other commitments also." I was looking at my father again and he was back in business mode. So I got up off my chair and walked back over to his desk.
"Ok give me this list so I can go make the calls and get them here soon. I will send my jet after them and meet them at the air strip. If you would like I can take them all to my house so they do not know you are invoved." He handed me a stack of folders and a pice of paper with names on it. I nodded to him and waited for his reply.
"They can come here so you can all work together and they can meet the Princess." With that I said a quick goodby to everyone and motioned the other Guardians to come along with me. Wehn we left the office I sent them to the gym to work on their strenght since we had a few days before we started. I then headed to my office off of the gym and started going through files and making phone calls.
