Chapter 6: I'll kill you all

Don't own VA. Never had; never will.

It was nighttime when we got up. The room was pitch black aside from the small lamp that didn't get smashed unlike the rest of the room. It was standing on the ground a few feet away from the foot of the bed. I sat up groggily and yawned. I wrapped my self with one of the bed sheets that were spared around my chest. I felt the behind me and a hand caught my wrist.

"Morning" I heard a tired Dimitri murmured. I turned around to face him.

"Morning." I returned with a light peck on the lips. He pulled his lips away while his arms pulled me to him.

We looked at each other with love in our eyes until a very strong stench reached our noses. "Ew…" I said and covered my nose. He did the same but only pinched it. I uncovered my nose and began sniffing around. "Ugh, it's the same smell from before!" I groaned and began sniffing around us.

"What smell?" Dimitri asked and eyes me curiously. I got off the bed along with the bed sheet and sniffed around the whole room. I turned over a bookshelf -that didn't get trashed. Nothing. I opened the window a little bit, and I caught the scent as the wind carried it in. I clamped a hand over my mouth as the tears came.

I know that scent. No way. It can't be. I dug through the drawers in the room and grabbed panties, a black bra, dark skinny jeans, and a white T-shirt. I opened the door and ran right out of the room with a soon to be dead Dimitri on the bed.

I ran down the stairs and pushed through twenty of the humans and strigoi that live here with Dimitri and I. "What's going on?" I asked Paige. She's a follower of Dimitri. She was a former guardian that recently turned strigoi no more than two weeks before me. She went to school with Dimitri and had graduated second best in her class right there with Dimitri. She had medium red hair and green eyes, 5'12" and she was incredibly slim for a dhampir. She looked at me and frowned.

"They just found them on the edge of Moscow a few days ago. Do you know them?" She asked. I gave her a haughty look. "Well do you?"

I nodded. I pushed through a couple more people and saw them.

Lissa, Adrian, Eddie, and Christian were right in front of me with their hands tied behind their backs and their feet tied together. I looked down at them and growled. Lissa cowered next to Christian while the rest just stared at me with fear in their eyes. I turned back to Paige who moved to right behind me.

"What is the meaning of this?" I turned to Paige. I looked back down to them. "How did they get here?"

Dimitri entered the room buttoning the top buttons of his shirt. He looked at me, the moroi and novice that was tied up, then Paige and the rest of the strigoi. "What's going on?"

"We found dinner in Moscow." Brian said with a smirk. Brian is Paige's half brother. He's a former moroi. In fact, his name was Dragomir. He's Lissa's uncle. So technically Lissa wasn't the last in her bloodline, just the last one 'alive.'

Dimitri looked at me and my scared group of 'living' friends. "untie them now." I ordered Brian. He nodded with his smirk and sliced the ropes off their hands , but still kept their feet tied. I kneeled down to Lissa. "Are you ok?" I asked.

She nodded but didn't talk. She hid behind Christian like a small child with wide tear filled eyes. I frowned and turned to Eddie who was right next to them. He had tears running down his cheeks and was breathing heavily. "I'm sorry." I said to him then turned to Adrian. He was glaring up at Dimitri. Clearly he was angry at Dimitri for my 'death.'

" Don't you do anything to them." I ordered to all of them including Dimitri as I got up to my feet. I turned to the strigoi and the humans. "If you even lay a hand on them, or even bite them just once, you'll wish I was still mortal." They nodded their heads with respect. I turned to my friends. "I won't let anything happen to you." I whispered. "Keep them in one of the spare rooms." I ordered to Dimitri and he got them up and gently led them to the room they will be staying for awhile.
