Liss and I were now in the car on our way to Vlad's. We learnt more about the boys. Mason, Eddie and Dimitri were all novices, like us, and we would probably have all the same classes together.
Adrian was a spirit user and to stop the bad effects usually drank or smoked, because it dulled the spirit. Christian was a fire user, one who was nearly always in trouble for using defensive spells on other students and sometimes even teachers. I felt that Christian and I were going to get along very well.
I turned to Dimitri. "You weren't really parking the car, were you? Because come on. I mean, you're too young to drive, aren't we all?" Not that I didn't know how to drive.
"Yeah. But Adrian being a spirit user he can charm a piece of silver jewellery, like a ring or necklace or bracelet, and it makes you look like a completely different person." He told me his eyes never once leaving the road. Up ahead there was a RBT (A/N; Random Breathe Test. It's to see if you've been drunk driving). Shit. If they caught Dimitri behind the wheel then we would seriously be dead.
I felt Lissa grab my left hand. I squeezed her hand in affection but also to show her that we were okay and we were safe. I felt Adrian pat me on my right leg. I looked up at him. "It's okay. Watch." He whispered so that only Liss and I could hear. We turned to Dimitri who leant down and plucked a nice plain silver ring from the glove box and slipped it on.
As soon as he out the ring on his whole form started to ripple. Then, in his place, was an older blonde haired guardian. He was completely the opposite of Dimitri.
"Squint." Whispered a smirking Adrian. I did as he was told and it was like a shadow of a person was around Dimitri but he was still there. Hmm... reminds me of Lissa's spell...
"Lissa can do a spell like that." I told Adrian, who turned to look at me with a confused look on his face. Up the front of the car Dimitri waited in line for the RBT officer to call him up. I could tell he was listening to our conversation.
"She can?" Adrian asked his tone that of surprise. I nodded. "Well, what's different?"
"What's different is you only need one ring or bracelet or necklace and you can be anyone you want, even an animal. But... you can't change your gender. If you're a girl, no matter what form you take you stay a girl. Same goes with a boy." I told him with a smug smile on my face. I was like a proud mother, a very proud mother.
"Really?" Asked Dimitri a bit of surprise in his voice, the most dominant emotion in his voice that of curiosity. "Anything? So if I was to take a ring or something that Vasillisa has charmed than I could turn into a bird? Snake? Midget like Adrian?" He asked in a playful tone.
"Hey!" Adrian said with a mock glare at him. "This relationship, Dimitri Belikov, is now over."
Lissa choked on the water she was drinking. I swear some of it flew out of her nose. Eww, gross. I sniggered at Dimitri's fake look of heart break. I spoke in a really high pitched girly voice, so I sounded like one of those 'bubbly' blonde cheerleaders from our past schools. "Omigod! Liss, I feel so bad! I mean, I just broke up this lovely relationship."
Lissa knew what I was doing so she joined in. She sniggered as well. "Oh no! Good bye Bromance! Hello Nomance." We burst out laughing. Just then the police officer called us up.
.o.O. TIME WARP .O.o.
We had just pulled into the school gates. Lissa and I jumped out. I snorted. Hasn't changed much. Oh. Apart from that weed over there in the corner. Yep. That wasn't there last time I was here.
"It's in the middle of the day so everyone will be in class." Christian said walking up behind us.
Lissa snorted. "Right. Last time I checked, when it's the middle of the day the sun is out, not the moon." We snickered. Funny. I grinned.
"That's my girl." I told her, putting my arm around her shoulders. I leant over and gave her a peck on the cheek. I could feel she was nervous. She'd never been to Vlad's, she'd gone to some school in England or something.
Christian scrunched up his nose. "Eww. Lesbian porn." I gave him the finger.
"Shut it Pretty Boy." I growled. He laughed. "Hey, Pretty Boy! What-" I was cut off by Christian.
"Are you always going to call me 'Pretty Boy'?" He asked, a sour look on his face.
I laughed. "Maybe, maybe not." He glared at me. "Hey, Christian? You specialized in fire, right?" He looked up surprised when I called him by his name.
"Oh... um, yeah. Why?" He answered.
I put an innocent look on my face. "Oh, no reason, really. Just..." I trailed off.
"Spit it out, Rose." He growled. I laughed. We were getting on so well. Hmm. I smiled.
"Sure thing, Sparky." I laughed at the look on his face... so funny. "Don't like it? Hmm... well, what about this one; Pyro? Or you could have Sparkles... or Fire Boy... or... hmm. I'll have to come up with some later." I said, pretending to ignore everyone else, just looking at the full moon. Sooo pretty... Rose? I turned to Lissa, who had spoken in my head. "Hmm?"
"Come on." She grabbed my hand. We followed the boys to a dorm.
"This is Lissa's dorm room." Said Eddie as he opened a chestnut coloured door to an amazing room. It was a light green, with white and chestnut coloured furniture here and there. It had a wooden queen-sized bed in the corner with white duvets that had a green vine pattern with pink flowers winding over it, it looked beautiful. It had green, fluffy pillows put in a group on the bed. In the corner opposite the bed was a kitchenette with a sink, microwave, fridge and even a stove. Beside it was a door that lead to the bathroom, which had a Jacuzzi in the corner with jade green tiles behind it, making a stunning effect.
There was a second door that held an office. It had a big mahogany desk in it with about three laptops on it. There was another bookshelf in here but instead of holding nick-nacks and random books, this held some of Vlad's old diaries, books about spirit and plants and jems scattered about it. Coming back into the main room there was a chestnut bookshelf, two jade green couches with a small coffee table between them. On the table there was a remote. I ran and grabbed it.
I flopped down on the couch. "Hmm... cool." I pressed on of the buttons' and a plasma TV came out of the wall.."Hehe! Hey, Liss! This is like at home! If I remember correctly... then this button here... should bring out the speakers..." I pressed the button, and low and behold, the speakers came out all across the room.
I heard the guys all mutter respective 'cool's. I heard a squeal from the other side of the room. I turned quickly. "What is it, Liss?"
She came running up to me. She grabbed me by my shoulders. "ROSE! You have to see this wardrobe! It is sooo cool!" She squealed and dragged me to a door I had ignored in the far corner of the room. I gasped when I went inside. It was nearly as big as the room and had a whole wall for shoes, a whole wall for clothes and the third wall had accessories, make up and mirrors covering it. I grabbed Lissa's arm.
"We have to see my room." I dragged her out. Her suitcase was left on the bed and we went across the campus to the dhampir dorms. When they got to my room I rushed straight in... and gasped. It was exactly the same as Lissa's, except where hers was jade green and white, mine was blood red and black. I started jumping up and down. Everything was the same; the layout, the bathroom, kitchen, TV, couches, everything except for the colours. My bed cover was different, instead of being a group of vines winding over mine it was blood red roses, the stems and thorns black. The background colour being gray made the roses stand out even more. Like Lissa's it had a group of pillows on it, the pillows being red of course.
I knew what the bathroom would look like, same goes for the wardrobe, so I went straight to the door that in Lissa's door held the spirit room. I gasped. He didn't. Ohh, but he so did! Oh my God! The room which was an office in Lissa's room was a mini gym in mine. It was complete with a punching bag, a treadmill, weights and even had bars hanging off the ceiling so I could do pull ups.
I came out after I had ogled my stuff. "So what do we do now?" I asked.
Mason answered. "You have to go see Kirova and then you come back here and unpack, I guess." He said, scratching the back of his head. Ahh. I remember Kirova. She was a self-righteous old bitch and was known for her lectures on responsibility. I nodded.
"Is her office still were it used to be?" He nodded. "Thanks. C'mon, Liss." We left the boys after getting the keys to our rooms and headed over to Kirova's office. When we got there Liss knocked, because if it had been me I wouldn't have knocked, I would have banged on the door as hard as I could.
"Come in." Came the voice of the old hag. Lissa opened the door. Well, here we go...
.o.O. TIME WARP .O.o.
After her long speech about her expectations at this school and what we should and shouldn't do she gave us our classes and told us we had twenty minutes left till third period, until then we were allowed to unpack and that some guardians had dropped our books off at our rooms. When we left her office we compared classes. Mine read:
Period 1 – Advanced Novice Training – Guardian Alex Heron
Period 2 – Weaponry Training – Guardian Alberta Petrov
Period 3 – Moroi Guarding 101 – Guardian Stan Alto
- Lunch -
Period 4 – Slavic Arts – Mr Frank Nagy
Period 5 – Moroi History – Mr John Klive
Period 6 –English & Maths– Ms Hanna Birk
Lissa's said:
Period 1 – Biology – Miss Charlene Cleaver
Period 2 – Advanced Magic – Mrs Xaviour
Period 3 – Spirit – Ms Karp
- Lunch -
Period 4 – Slavic Arts – Mr Frank Nagy
Period 5 – Moroi History – Mr John Klive
Period 6 – English & Maths – Ms Hanna Birk
We only had three classes together and that was after lunch. Sigh. Halfway across the grounds I said goodbye to Lissa and we headed off to our rooms.
After unpack my suitcase and packing the books and stuff I needed for my classes I realised I still had about ten minutes left. After a quick shower I changed into a pair of washed out gray skinny jeans, a gray singlet that had 'Bite me & I'll bite back' in red on it, a black leather jacket and a pair of black high-heeled ankle boots. I put on some smoky gray eye shadow, eye liner, mascara and a bit of lip gloss to finish the look. My eyes looked big and dangerous, my lips full and pouty and my hair dark and luscious, tumbling down my back in soft curls.
My clothes concealed all types of weapons. I had two knives in my right boot, a stake in my left. A gun and a stake on my belt. I had a can of pepper spray in my leather jacket along with a knife, gun and an extra stake.
I picked up my red and black Gucci backpack, which had a set of gym clothes, as well as my books, pencil case, laptop, water bottle and other necessities. On my way out the door I picked up my IPhone. 'New message' flashed on the screen. It was from Lissa.
Good luck! Remember, don't hit any1... yet. :] - L
It read. I laughed and replied.
I'll try... u know, it's gonna b really hard... : P – R
I headed off to Moroi Guarding 101. On the way across the grounds from the Dhampir dorms to the school building I got quite a few stares, glares from the skinny, flat chested moroi and dhampir girls and checked out by both male dhampirs' and morois'. I was already liking the attention and it was obvious that no one knew who I was.
"ROSE!" A male voice called out. I turned and running towards me was Mason, Jamie and... *shudder*... Dimitri. "Wait up!" It was Mason who had yelled out.
"Oh. Hey Mase, Jamie." I stopped and completely ignored Dimitri. "You going to... uh, Moroi Guarding 101, with... umm... Stan?" They nodded.
Jamie spoke up. "Bit of advice... don't piss off Stan." As soon as he said that the wheels started turning in my head. "I shouldn't have said that..." He muttered.
Mason and Dimitri shook their heads. "Not at all." They murmured together.
.o.O. TIME WARP .O.o.
We walked into the classroom. As soon as I came through the door the whole class room fell quiet. There were no teachers in the room, but there were guardians. I put on my Man-Eater smile.
"What? Strigoi got your tongue?" I purred, walking down to a seat in the back. As soon as I said that everyone started talking.
A cute dhampir guy leaned forward. "Hi, I'm Jay. And you are..."
"Rose." I purred. He smiled.
"Sooo... I heard that you lived in the human world, what was it like?" With that question everyone fell silent, turned to us and leant forward, waiting for an answer.
"It was okay I guess. Schools are completely different though." I answered with a shrug.
His eyes lit up. "Did you ever get suspended? If so what for?"
I laughed. "What are you? A reporter?" He blushed. "No, I never got suspended." He snorted. "What?" I asked- okay then, demanded.
"Uh, sorry. I just thought you were that kind of girl. You know, the dangerous reckless one."
It was my turn to snort. "Oh, but I am. I've been expelled from twelve schools; two military schools, six normal state schools, cause they were the only ones that would have us after the stint at the private school, a private school and three detention centres."
"What was the stint at the private school?" Asked a blonde dhampir girl.
"Oh, we hacked into the system and put viruses on all of the computers. But that was only the start of it. We got into a little trouble for that. One time it was National Paws for Walks Day, so Lissa and I brought in our pet wolves Dawn and Shadow. Should have seen the looks on the other students' faces. Principal shit a brick. It was so funny. We got into even more trouble for that. With PE at their school the students had to have showers to like, get all the sweat and dirt and crap off them. And instead of the students bringing their own shampoo and conditioner there were dispensers on the wall in each shower cubicle. Lissa and I had asked to go to the toilet and when we were allowed we filled the dispensers with permanent hair die. So after the showers every student, it was an all girls school by the way, had coloured hair. Green, blue, purple, pink, yellow, orange, red... it goes on. But they knew it was us because we were the only students without coloured hair." I laughed, remembering how the colours clashed so horribly with some of the girls clothes. "In the end rumours about the pranks spread to the other private schools and none would have me or Lissa."
Everyone had surprised and some even had approving looks on their faces, it was obvious I was now accepted in this group of novices. Everyone turned to the front when a tall skinny man walked in. He had small, beady eyes which were constantly moving, like a predator's eyes looking for prey, he had a hooked nose which, like Kirova's, looked more like a beak then a nose. His lips were pressed in a thin line. His beady eyes fixed on me.
"Ah! We have a guest speaker!" He faked enthusiasm, clapping his hands together as he stood in front of the class. "Miss Rosemarie Mazur! How wonderful! Please come up to the front, and tell us all about your time in the human world!" I stood up and made my way to the front of the room, making sure my hips swayed; sure to catch the attention of every guy in the room.
"Hi there." I flashed him an 'I'm sweet and innocent' smile. I swear I heard him growl. Huh, must have read my file…
"Don't try that act on me, Miss Mazur." His eyes flashed when I smirked.
"Oh, but what act, Stan my darling?" I smiled at him again. He was starting to get bright red. This is funnier then when I went to one of the state schools and the principal had anger-management problems.
"Cut it out, Miss Mazur. Now, when you were living in the human world, did you or did you not, do any physical training or sports?" He asked.
I snorted. "Of course I did sports."
"What type of sports then?"
"In spring I did things like running, Mau Thai, which is a form of kick boxing, for those of you who don't know, karate and yoga. Summer I did swimming, skating, gymnastics and yoga. Autumn I did running, rock climbing, weights and yoga. Winter was the same but instead of weights I did ice-skating."
"Huh, I see you were very active. Did you have guardians with you and Lissa at all times?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Seriously? Can everyone do that but me?
"Well no-"
He cut me off. "Then you had Miss Dragomir in serious danger."
"Actually, she was quiet safe. I was with her the whole time."
He laughed. "You."
I nodded. "I have officially staked five Strigoi and decapitated two. And I can prove it."
"Show me." He growled and grabbed me by my shoulders, roughly turning me around.
"Hey! Careful with the merchandise." I told him, lifting up my hair so that he could see my molninja marks. He gasped.
"You did kill seven Strigoi... but how? You are only a novice and you have been in the human world for two years, not at the academy, learning how to fight and protect a moroi."
"Who said that I didn't learn to fight while I was gone? Hmm? Who said I didn't have a dhampir guardian teaching me how to fight?" I asked leaning forward threateningly. I heard an intake of breathe. Huh. I had forgotten about the class.
"I did." He growled, leaning closer so he was right up in my face. Eww... his breathe smelt of tuna. I scrunched up my face.
"Eww. Don't you brush your teeth? Because your breath is di-sgust-ing." I drew out disgusting in an attempt to piss him off. Well, guess what? It worked.
He pointed at the mat behind me. "Right. Get on the mat now. Let's see how good your skills really are."
I laughed. "I can take you on in these heels, dressed the way I am, Stanny Boy."
I will try and get the next chapter up as soon as I can but I have a few assignments at the moment and I have to get tomorrow. Yay. Anyway, have a nice day (or night) :D
Press it, I know you want to :P
