"Did you mean it before? You want to go with me on my next crazy quest? No matter what?"

"Yes." There was no hesitation in the word, no wavering in her steady green eyes.

My mind started working a hundred beats a second- He was coming, Dmitri the man I had loved – well still loved- was still walking this earth, the act that I cried myself to sleep over was a failure… for one split second my heart lept with joy- he wasn't dead, he could hold me in his arms, I could kiss his lips, I could feel his body again-- as the night in the cabin blew painfully back into my mind. NO. He was no longer Dimitri; he was a Strigori, a soulless machine hungry for death…. Hungry for me. He no longer wanted to turn me, id lost that chance, no, Dimitri wanted me dead, and it would be soon.

"Rose, Rose, ROSE?" I looked up Lissa was staring at me, my face mustn't have been reflecting the expression of that a normal person, in fact I'm pretty sure this was one of those 'rose is crazy' moments. I just stared right back my mouth moving but no words coming out.

And could I risk Lissa's life like this? My whole past, my whole future was to protect Lissa, she was pretty much my purpose in life. But not anymore, as selfish as the words seem she is not the only thing that matters anymore, I made a promise to Dimitri, I made a promise to a man that would always hold my heart, and I was determined to fulfill that promise.

"Lissa… Lissa we need to go we need to leave" the weird sense of déjàvu leaking into the pit of my stomach. She just looked at me, staring straight into my eyes before I saw a decision flash across her face. She was coming.

She ran to her wardrobe and pulled out 2 backpacks, stripping out of her silk summer dress she rummaged in the back of her wardrobe until she found some dark denim shorts and threw on a Ben Sherman singlet, practical and easy to move in but she managed to still keep herself looking classy, lucky for me I didn't bother to put much effort into looking nice anymore, still wearing a black pair of trackies and a singlet she threw me a white ¾ shirt before running to the bathroom. We didn't need any clothes we would juts buy some over there it was easier than having to go too the baggage collection at the air port, and what Lissa came back into the room with would certainly help us out with that. Running back in she didn't even glance up before she threw in rolls of hundred dollar bills at the bottom of the backpack, she looked up to my face.

"Just in case I loose my credit cards" with a small smile before chucking a mobile phone on top. I jumped and ran for the phone I had dialed the number enough in Novosibirsk that I knew it off by heart.

On the second ring she picked up "Sydney, I need you!"

We didn't really have much of a plan, we just improvised. "Head mistress Kirova will see you now girls" the assistant looking down on us as we sat waiting motioned off to the left. Before stepping through the door Lissa said in barley a whisper, 'leave this to me".

Looking at the front of the room I was greeted with kirova's smug smile... god I hated her "well girls it's lovely to see you and of course you rose, I was beginning to miss you I haven't seen you in what? 4 days, a new record" she was such a bitch "Yes, principle Kirova, its nice to see you too" in order to get out of this place I had to try and contain my temper, I saw approval flash in Lissa's eyes before she launched into our lie. I zoned in and out of the discussion, my mind mostly on the task ahead, but from what I gained we were taking the jet to the Royal court to visit Mia, for two days. Believable? Not really but Kirova seemed to think it was legit, even if I did expect a little bit of compulsion to have a part in there.. Even if it was illegal it won't compare to what we had lying ahead of us.

The walk to the gate was quite long and on the way i explained to Lissa what was happening, I was worried about her, going back to the days when Victor Tortured her and now we were planning on breaking him out of prison, taking away his punishment. But surprisingly she kept a steady face, I looked into her emotions and found only pure determination and courage, she needed to help me no matter what. The emotions were so strong they made me a bit teary, the only negative feeling was a tiny bit of regret- Christian.

We had made it too the gates and showed our leave passes to the guardians on duty, they were confused that Kirova let us go without a proper guardian but let us leave, before stepping out I quickly slipped on a silver bangle-Lissa had managed to figure out how to enrich objects with spirit- I really wasn't in the mood to be attacked by ghosts.

Walking down the path a couple hundred meters a sleek black car raced around the corner, swerving so facing the direction it just came from, the sun roof opened and a head shot through the top. "Well well well, if it isn't my most favorite creature of the night? Did you miss me?"
