Okay, I fell in love with this series, and I decided I wanted to come up with an ending before the next book comes out to see how close I was. Anyway, I do not own the Vampire Academy, or the characters. Thank you and please review

I had been walking for several hours now, and the stress was wearing my body down even more. I didn't know where to find Dimitri but I did know I had to find him, I owed him that much. "You are strong; I know you can do this." This memory made me flinch. Of course the entire day my mind had been entertaining me with memories, yet this one hurt most of all, as I saw his face in my head. "Stop it." I said aloud to myself. I then began to walk father until I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I turned quickly and my hand found the sheath that held the stakes I had stolen from the academy.

"Oh." Was all I could manage to say. Around me were several ghosts like figures, all pale and saddened. I then focused in on the most solid one. I realized that, like Mason, the more I used them the quicker they would fade. So choosing the most solid only made sense. The one I chose, I recognized as a Dhampir that I had seen fall in the tunnel with the Strigoi. "Can you help me?" I asked. The figure just nodded and pointed down the road. "Is there Strigoi that way?" I asked my pale companion. It nodded vigorously. I then decided it would be safer to stay off the main trail. As I got up the small cliff by the road I began to feel sick, and then spotted them.

"Did you hear something?" One of them asked the other two that stood around in clearing. Blocking the only way to and from the Academy. One of them shrugged and the other stood up scoping the surroundings. Instant fire filled me as I watched them. They were the ones that did it; they were the ones that turned my Dimitri into a monster. Not the exact one, but it was defiantly one of the ones I had seen in the battle.

"… the one that isn't afraid to jump in without thinking…" I flinched again at the voice of my former mentor. I remember having this conversation before we staged the attack, when we were still trying to find out if it was the right thing to do. I thought about it, this couldn't be what he wanted. He would have never wanted me to stage an impossible defeat of just me squaring off with three Strigoi. I sighed and scoped the area again; I had to find another way around without risking my life. I made a promise to come back, and my first plan would be a way to break it.

"Do you think it is safer to move now?" I asked the former solider that I had chosen to aid me. He nodded and pointed to the sun. He had a point, once the sun went down completely, I wouldn't have to try to avoid them, they would come find me. I then realized I had anywhere between three to five minutes before that happened, and there was only a small strip of light left on the path the they stood in the shadows of. So I ran. I ran down the mountain back onto the path I was previously on. I heard them hiss as they watched me cross over into the path of light. I was going to make it, that was until I saw the light disappear. So I turned. I knew there was no out running them. They advanced quickly and I pulled out one of the stakes and killed the first one rather effortlessly. However, the other two were much harder and then I felt the body slam into me, as I fell against the rock formation that they currently were seeking shelter behind. I dropped the stake and hissed in pain as I tried to pull my body back up, but it was too late.

"Don't kill her." I heard a masculine voice say. "She's special." Then before I even had a chance to look at my attackers, my body failed me and I passed out.

Okay, this is chapter one. I hope you like it. Anyway, review and tell me if I am doing a good job. Also tell me what you think should or will happen. Although I already have a plan, I love feedback.
