The way that it should have been

Chapter 15

"Yes, we thought so too. We actually have someone working on it right now. She is a scientist, but she is also an alchemist who is also a witch, her name is Sydney Sage. Baba introduced us to her. She says that she is getting closer by the day, so we are hoping that soon she will be able to put it out to the masses. She is already doing trials on dhampir and moroi volunteers, who work for my baba. And he pays them really well for volunteering, she also said that those trials were doing really well. Of course, they have not tried to get someone turned, but they compare mine and Lissa's blood to the volunteer's blood. They have also introduced strigoi blood to the blood taken from the volunteers in the lab. And, according to baba and Sydney, the last several weeks the blood of the volunteer's doesn't change anymore. The gene that is in our blood actually attacks the strigoi gene and destroys it before it can do any kind of damage to the hosts blood." (daddy, father, daddy)

I was dumb struck I just didn't know what to say.

"If we could all be immune to being turned then we wouldn't have to be as worried about the strigoi as much anymore. And those spoiled royals who would normally turn themselves couldn't do that anymore either."

"Yes, that is all true."

"If we could somehow get even the humans inoculated, then the strigoi could not rebuild their numbers as the guardians continue to wipe them off of the face of the planet. So someday we could actually make some headway in getting rid of the strigoi."

"That is all true too and one of the other reasons that we decided to do this. We were hoping for the same thing, making everyone immune to becoming strigoi. And then wiping the strigoi from the face of the planet. And keeping them gone by keeping the moroi from turning themselves."

"That is a good idea and plan mladenets. Ad it's actually a GREAT idea and plan mladenets." (babe, hell, babe)

"Thanks."

"Whose idea was it?"

Again, she looked down at her fingers before eventually looking back up at me and answering my question shyly. "Mine."

"Amazing lyubov' moya, you are ab-so-lute-ly amazing Roza moya." (my love, my)

"Thank you, but it's not that big of a deal."

"Roza, you may have just come up with a way to not only wipe out the strigoi. But also, a way to keep them from replenishing their ranks and a way to keep the moroi from turning themselves. To take a saying from you, it is an 'awesome' idea and a VERY big deal angel moya." (my)

"Thank you, I want to help keep us all safe in any way that I possibly can."

I chuckled, "God, you sound like such a leader. A queen even."

"Comrade..." She said, but I could hear the self-doubt and disbelief in her voice.

"I am serious Roza. Wanting to protect people is just one of the ideals that all true leaders have in common."

"Yes well, I seriously doubt that I will ever become a 'real leader' the royals would just never allow it."

"Roza, you are a royal too, don't ever forget that detka. You have just as much of a right to lead your people as anyone else in the world does. And when the people find out that you are trying to come up with a way to protect us all from and end the strigoi. The masses will follow you by the droves." (baby)

"I doubt it."

"Please Roza moya, please don't ever doubt yourself or your abilities lyubov' moya. I believe in you." (my, my love)

"Thank you, Comrade." She said as she gently cupped my cheek and smiled.

"You're welcome angel moya, now back to our earlier discussion." (my)
