This is going to be Vampire Academy from Dimitri's perspective. Yeah, i know its been done before but not many people have finished it and most just follow the chapters. I started one chapter before Rose's perspective, it is when the Guardians are on their way to Seattle to bring back Rose and Lissa. This is my first fanfic so please review! ^_^ ... Yeah, that's right, I used four exclamation marks. 'Cause I'm a bad-ass.
I sat on the plane looking over the files for what must have been the eightieth time, even though I could probably recite it from memory. To be honest, I just didn't want to look like a loner, which I kind of am, if I must admit.
The other Guardians were all sitting together in little groups, trading battle stories and playing cards. I wouldn't mind joining them, but I didn't know how to go about it. A mixture of social anxiety and intimidation welled up inside me.
I looked down at the files, pulling myself out of the depths of self-pity, telling myself I don't need friends.
The girls in the photographs looked to be about fourteen at the time it was taken, before the car crash that killed the Princess's family. The photograph was taken at an amusement park with Lord André Dragomir, God rest his soul, between the two girls, his arms around their waists. André and Vasilisa were looking straight ahead, but Rosemarie was looking at André out of the corner of her eye. You could see a slight blush on her face. I noticed then that Andre's hand was, in fact, on Rosemarie's ass.
I had heard all the stories about Rosemarie Hathaway. She was rude, disrespectful, a slut, trashy, a party-girl and all around, insufferable. She was well-known around St. Vladimir's for her escapades.
The only people who seemed to have anything nice the say about her were Albert, head Guardian at the academy, who i think felt like a maternal figure toward Rosemarie. Mason Ashford, also, who seems to be under the impression that 'Rose' was a 'responsible, smart, loyal and totally protective guardian to Vasilisa and would only leave if she thought she was doing the right thing, if Lissa was in danger.' That was preposterous of course, why bring a royal Moroi princess out of a heavily protected academy and into the human world if you wanted to keep her safe?
Eddie Castile was another novice who had something nice to say. I read his interview a couple of times, it seemed pretty legit. I liked Eddie, I saw him around and he was one of the few people at the academy who actually talked to me, of course, it was no more than a 'hey, how's tricks?' But the point still stands. In his interview he went on and on saying how Rose isn't who we all thought she was, he said she was one of the nicest and most loyal people you could ever hope to meet, once you got past the smart-ass countenance. *God I hope so.* Eddie too, seemed to think Rose must have had a better reason for kidnapping the princess than just wanting to for fun and revenge. I hoped Eddie was right, not that it mattered much, Kirova would probably kick her out anyway.
The jet landed in a privet Airport outside Seattle, where all the guardians filed out and into the SUVs. I got into the one in front of our convoy, because I was leading this mission. I insisted upon driving so I wouldn't have to speak to anyone.
We set off to the college campus that the girls were living in and got there just past twelve. I had guardians posted at every street corner, alley and blind-spot for a one mile radius of the girls' house, also a flank of guardians to herd them in the right direction. When everybody was in place, it was time to wait.
Please Read and Review and tell me if I should keep going or if I'm wasting my time. I know it's really short but i didn't have much to go on, so I promise the next chapter will be a lot longer! I'll try and put up another chapter tonight or tomorrow!
