AN and Disclaimer: Hey everybody! My headache finally stopped. This is the real chapter 8; I don't own VA, though I wished it was the topic for the stupid test. xP

"Are you ok?" I asked all of them. They nodded their heads and stared at me with scared faces. I almost forgot, they just found out I was turned. I guess I was too worried about them that I forgot about that. "Please tell me you're all right. And don't give that stare you freaks."

To my surprise they laughed. I stared at them confused. I walked in the room and closed the door behind. I so didn't want the other strigoi to hear what we were talking about.

We sat in a circle on the ground facing each other. Whoa…I never noticed earlier that Eddie, Adrian, and even pyro Christian were so…muscular. I turned to Lissa and I was still stunned. She didn't have much of her super model frame anymore. She had some small muscular built and she looked almost as curvy as me.

"What are you staring at little dhampir?" Adrian asked with a smirk. If I could, I would've blushed. I so didn't want to admit to Adrian that he actually looked hot; even to Christian.

So I said this instead, "So you finally cracked and took steroids?" I asked with a small smile. Lissa giggled when Adrian's smirk twitched at the sides. I giggled too. So did Eddie. Christian just looked confused.

"What the heck are you talking about?" he asked scratching his head.

Eddie spoke. "Just forget it Christian, just forget it." He managed to say between laughs.

After we finally calmed ourselves done, we sat in silence. I guess they still felt a little uncomfortable around me. That, I didn't really mind. Being around someone you cared about being something so evil, so vial, so…soulless, be standing right next to you and acting as if nothing happened; I knew exactly how they feel.

Lissa broke the silence. "So…"she said with awkwardness. "How is it like…you know…being…a…um…" I finished for her.

"Strigoi?" She nodded then looked down. I half-smiled. "It feels weird. I'm still the person I have always been…I just…look really different that's all." They each gave me a confused look. "Hey, I've been one for only a week, how would I know?" I shrugged.

Eddied toyed with his fingers. Then looked up at me and asked something that made me groan. "Did you kill anyone?"

I groaned and put a hand on my head as I shook it. "Nope," I answered. "I'm going to try feasting on psi-energy instead."

"What's that?" Christian asked. "Does it involve blood being drained?" I scoffed at him. "What did I do?"

"You're a vampire and you don't know what that is!" I almost shouted. Lissa snickered. "And what are you laughing about?" I turned to her.

Same old Rose. She said through the bond. I rolled my eyes.

The one and only. I retorted and she laughed more.

"Psi-energy is another option than drinking the person's actual blood," I reply, "You align your chakras or whatever and just feast off the person's energy."

Christian looked at me funny. "So, you're going to feed off of our energy." he stated. I nodded. He looked thoughtful for a moment then turned to Adrian. "You're first." He said.

Adrian still had a smug look. "More like her second." Adrian said. I thought I heard an innuendo, but he dropped his smugness and turned serious. "Rose, we have to tell you something."

"What?" I asked.

"It's about Robert Doru," He said. "We finally got to Victor, but, he apologizes and said that Robert died four years ago from a bear attack."

My mouth dropped. Are you fricking kidding me?! "What!"

"Victor said that Robert did tell him how to bring back a strigoi though." I let him continue but I stared at him appalled. "Will you stop staring like that?" he asked. I stopped. "Thank you. Anyway, Victor said that he can help us, but there is one more thing…"

"What is it?" I asked. He looked to Lissa who was furiously shaking her head.

"Just say it!"

"No way, she'll kill me." Lissa said.

Adrian stared at her. She sighed. "Fine." She turned to me with the same serious expression. "He's sicker than before," she continued and frowned. "And what's worse is that…" she stopped in her words. I urged her to continue. "Rose…they're saying he'll only have five more weeks to live." She nearly cried.

I looked back at Adrian. "Why would I kill her for that?"

He looked down. "He asked her to heal her again, but for some reason, it made it even worse." I looked back to Lissa who was sobbing all over Christian. I turned back to Adrian. "Rose, we came here to get you, then get him out of the court's hospital, then turn you back."

I nodded with a frown. "And what about Dimitri?" I asked. "I can't just leave him." I choked out those words. I thought about what I had just said to Dimitri downstairs. I hate you, Belikov. I winced at the fullness of them. Yes, I do have some hatred towards him, but everything besides that was, love. Everything about him was always about love. "Even if none of you will understand," I said through some tears that were pouring. "I can't just him like this, not as one of them while I go back to my old life. I need him, and he needs me. Even if it is illegal and immoral…I'm deeply, truly, and unconditionally in love with him." I cried into my hands now.

Lissa who was still tearing up was now hugging me. "I know just how you feel." She whispered. I whimpered. I can't just leave.

"Well, why can't we also bring him back?" Christian offered.

"I guess we can." Adrian said. "But how do we sneak them both out without any of the strigoi noticing?"

I stopped crying and wiped away my tears. "What if we took you out for a walk?" I asked. "Dimitri did that last time I came for him, and not that many people questioned us." Adrian nodded.

"That's sounds good." he said. "But, how do we run fast enough before the other…undead bloodsuckers find out that we won't be coming back?"

I thought about it. We have a SUV somewhere in this place. That can probably fit all of us. "We have a car, maybe we can use that. Instead for a walk, we can say we're going to turn you then set you off on the public."

"How sadistic can you get?" Christian asked.

"Do you want to get out or not?" I asked. He folded his arms and muttered something.

"So when?" Adrian asked.

Hmm… "When they believe that you won't be anymore trouble. Or if you tell them you're ready to be changed."

"That might take awhile." Eddie said.

"You think?" I said.

"Remember, we only have a few weeks to spare. Rose can you help?" Adrian asked.

"If it means I can come back," I said with some of my Rose attitude. "Hell yeah!"

I walked upstairs to me and Rose's room. I opened the door, and flipped the light switch. I looked down to see that one of my books fell from the table next to the door lying open on the floor.

"Hi Dimka." I thought it was Rose so I looked up. I was shocked to find Paige lying down on the bed instead. I just stared at her. "What? See something you like?" She smirked. I felt my mouth twitch. She was only wearing a black panty and bra set and a metallic green robe that was open. I gulped.

"What are you doing here?" I asked her. She pouted and got up from the bed. She walked over to me and put her arms around my neck.

"Awe, don't you like your surprise?" she faked dissapointment. She pressed her body closer to mine. I felt myself sweating. I composed myself. I thought about Rose each time she pressed harder. "Oh Dimka, I saw what happened downstairs. Don't worry, you can have me." She unhooked her arms and let the robe fall off of her. I looked away. "What's wrong? Not enough?" She unhooked her bra and let it fall on the ground above her feet. I still looked away. Rose, Roza, please come through that door. Now. She made me turn to her. She pressed her breast to my chest and I cleared my throat.

"Paige, you should go, now." I said. She tsked. She kissed me. Oh God, when will she stop! I love Rose! She pulled away and looked at me straight in the eye.

"You will let me, and you will be mine." she said. For some reason my mind went blank and I just did what she wanted me to do. She unbuttoned my shirt and got to my pants. She moaned when my tongue entered her mouth. I was about to push her to the bed when I heard a growl from the door.

"What the fuck is going on?" I broke away from Paige to see a very pissed off Rose glaring daggers at me and Paige. We were wearing nothing but our underwear, which probably pissed her off more. She turned to me. "I really hate you! How could you! I thought you loved me, but now I see this!" She pointed a finger to Paige who was smirking.

"Roza, I can explain." I said getting down to get my clothes. "She did something and…"

She cut me off.

"Save it." She held up her hand. "And don't ever call me that again." She turned to Paige. "I hope you're happy whore." With that she stalked out of the room.

I turned back to Paige. She grabbed her bra and putted it back on along with her robe which she closed and tied tightly. "Don't worry." She said as she walked out the door. "I'll be back again another night."

She closed the door. I just stared at it mindlessly for awhile. Then, I felt my blood boil. I yelled out in Russian. "I can't believe it! That stupid woman! I'll kill her for what she did to me and Roza!" I cried.

Sorry, I'm so mean.
