A/N: Hello my pretties. Are we all well this fine day? Sorry kind of hypo. Hope you're all well. Are you enjoying the story or not? This I getting into the beginning of VA so I'm not exactly using Richelle Meads' words but I'm changing them around to suit the story. Enjoy and don't forget to review please.
Everything belongs to Richelle Mead she just let me play around with her story and plot like so many others do.
Lissa and I had been on the run for a while now. We fought off a pack of psi hounds a couple weeks ago and now we were in a college campus. We had been here for a few days now but I doubt anyone suspected anything. I missed Adrian and he hadn't visited me for a while. He kept tabs on me once in a while but he said he'd been self-medicating quite a bit because he was fighting with his parents. I felt as if something might happen today. I felt weird as if someone had been watching me all day.
It was finally time for bed and I check the building before I went to sleep. I felt the effects before I saw the scene. I was being pulled into a spirit induced dream. We were at the Academy and I was near Kirova's office and Adrian was sitting in on chair. I walked over to him.
"Little Dhampir. How are you?" He asked while pulling me into a tight hug.
"Can't . . . breathe," He pulled back but held onto my arms.
"Sorry. So how are you?" He seemed as if he was hiding something or wanted to tell me something.
"I'm okay. It's been a little rough but the bond helps me keep tabs on Lissa. How are you? Miss me." I asked jokingly.
"I'm okay. Yes I did miss you." He said giving me a serious look. "Rose . . ." I looked to him and he seemed worried. You need to listen to this conversation that I over-heard last week. This is like you're hear but they can't see you okay?" I looked to him confused yet worried. He motioned for me to follow him. He opened the door to Kirova's office and we stepped inside without being noticed. Kirova looked angry and she was having a heated conversation with Alberta.
"We need to get her back. She is in dangerous hands. How could you let them get beyond our perimeters?" She yelled at Alberta. Wow she is pissed.
"We have people tracking them. I have asked Dimitri Belikov to undergo the mission and he has accepted.
'Yes I have and I will return the Princess safely." A tall man said. He had brown hair up to his shoulders, tied back at the nape of his neck and he looked quite tall. I wanted to get a better look. I looked at Adrian and talked softly.
"Adrian, can I move towards the front without being caught?"
"Go ahead this is you reliving what I saw. I was sort of invited to watch along with my parents to add our opinion." I walked forward to the front of the room. I looked Dimitri over and he actually seemed quite hot but since he's been order to hunt Lissa and I out I decided to ignore that fact.
"We have a team of guardians ready to prepare looking for the Princess. I need to have her file and understand where they might go." Ha, you won't find anything there. The room started to fade.
"That's all Rose. Please be safe." He pulled me into a hug and I was then abruptly pulled into Lissa's head. She was having a dream about the accident. The distraught images flowed through my head and I pulled my-self out of her head and woke up. I jumped out of bed and ran over to a thrashing Lissa. I shook her and she whimpered. I pulled her into a hug and she cried a little into my shoulder.
I turned the lamp on after several minutes and studied her face.
"When was the last time we did a feeding?" I asked continuing to study her face. It seemed more ashen than usual and she seemed somewhat fragile. "It's been a couple of days. Two or three days? Why didn't you tell me or say something?" She looked away from my piercing yet concerned gaze and shrugged.
"You were busy I didn't want to –"
"Screw disturbing me," After saying that I shifted into a better position for her. It made sense now why she looked so pale.
"Rose –" She started to protest.
"Come on. You need it. You'll feel better." I tilted my hair and brushed my hair out of the way. She hesitated and then realise that she really wanted the blood. After a couple of minutes she stopped. I feel on to the bed, dazed from the loss of blood. She went to get me something to eat. I got up after a couple of minutes and looked out the window.
I focused on something and holy crap someone was looking at me, directly to this window. No doubt he just saw the exchange between Lissa and me. I ran downstairs and explained the situation to Lissa.
We got the keys – from a boy by use of compulsion – to a car. We ran outside even though I was still dazed and high of the vampire endorphins released form the bite. I staggered down the street and tried to keep my balance.
"Did you hear that?" Lissa asked suddenly. I focused my attention and no doubt heard footsteps coming towards us – and fast. Suddenly when we were so close to the car and a man stepped out in front of us and he looked familiar.
Oh crap, I though once he was in the light of the street lamp. He's the guy that's after me. Fuck I should have left after Adrian showed me the conversation he and his parents took part in.
I looked at him and gave him a dirty.
"Don't come any closer." He held up his hands in a gesture that he didn't want to fight.
"I'm not going to hurt you."
"Dimitri Belikov." I said with acid. He looked shocked and Lissa shocked flared through the bond. His guardian mask went back up. He took a step toward us and I lunge at him. He got too close. He swatted my attack away as if it was a menial attempt at hurt him. He hit me hard and I was falling but I wasn't. He caught me before I hit the ground. He set me upright and I pulled out of his grasp as soon as I was stable enough on my own feet.
"Since you know my name already there is no point in me repeating it. Princess I am here –"
"To return us to Saint Vladimir's Academy," He looked at me shocked.
"Yes."
A/N: So, I thought I would write something to continue but what do you guys think. I have quite a few added to my Author Alert list etc. and I and I want your opinion. What should happen next? Should Adrian get involve or abruptly help them escape. What should happen? If you want this to continue please leave some feedback and a few ideas in a review or feel free to PM me.
Love, Ana.
