Chapter 14

Dimitri's POV

Rose all of a sudden began crying and I just wrapped my arms around her and comforted her. Poor Roza...

I just held her tight while she kept crying. After a few minutes, she was just sobbing now into my shoulder.

I rub her back and say, "Shh... it's okay, it's okay Roza."

She shook her head and said, "D-Dimitri... I... I was s-so scared... I'm still scared..." her head was still on my shoulder.

I rub her back and say, "Don't worry Roza... I'll protect you."

She lifts her head from my shoulder and says, "You can't protect me... You have to protect the Moroi."

I pull her back into a hug and say, "I can protect you and the Moroi."

Then I can hear her say, "But what happens if you have to choose between me and a Moroi...?"

I remained silent because I didn't know the answer to her question. Who would I choose...?

So we just sat on her bed hugging each other. Then she became calm and now we were just quiet. A few more seconds later, Rose pulled away from the hug and said, "Be right back..." Then she got up and went into the bathroom.

I juststood up and sighed.

I looked at the clock and it was 12:02am.

I just stood near the door waiting for Rose to come out of the bathroom to tell her that I was going to go back to my room.

She came out and I said, "I guess I should be going now..."

She walked up to me, hugged me and said, "Please stay with me tonight..."

I looked at her and nodded. We then made our way over to her bed. She laid down first and then I laid down next to her.

I wrapped my arms around her and we just stayed quiet until we fell asleep.

~Morning~

I woke up to someone knocking on the door. I looked at Rose and saw that she was still sleeping, so I got up and answered the door.

When I opened the door, Lissa had her back to the door. So when she turned around, her eyes became wide with shock. Then she said, "Good morning Dimitri is Rose up?"

I shook my head and said, "No, would you like me to wake her up?"

"Yes, please. We need help getting things fixed, windows were broken and doors and other things. We would also need your help Dimitri." she replied.

I nodded my head and said, "Okay, I guess we'll just meet you at the gym."

She nodded and then walked away.

I closed the door and made my way over to Rose's sleeping form.

I shook her gently and said, "Wake up Rose."

I shook her a few more seconds before she finally woke up. She rubbed her eyes and said, "What's up?"

"We need to help fix some things. So get ready, I need to go back to my room to get changed," I told her.

She nodded and I let her room and headed straight for mine.

I reached my room and started to get ready. After a few minutes, I was done and I made my way back to Rose's room.

I knocked on her door and she answered. We then made our way to the gym.

~Meanwhile somewhere else away from the Academy~

No one's POV

"That was so stupid!" a voice yelled.

"I know, okay? Yeesh! Don't yell Kara!" another voice said.

The strigoi girl named Kara sighed and said, "Sorry, sorry. It's just what you did was pretty stupid. Why didn't you have back-up or something? You got roasted Aaron! If it weren't for me you would be dead!"

Aaron ran a hand through his hair and said, "I know, I know. And thank you for healing me. I was just not expecting a fire user to be there."

Kara was a spirit user when she was a Moroi and she still is a spirit user. Spirit users who turn into strigoi still have their power, they had found out when one strigoi named Mike had been injured in a fight. She healed him and everybody was in shock.

Kara had found Aaron when she was escaping. She picked him up and ran for their hide-out. It was a shock that he was still slighty breathing because his body was roast. She healed him straight away when they had reached their hide-out. So here he is now. Alive.

Aaron then said, "Don't worry, next time I'll have back-up at all times."

Kara blinked and said, "Next time...?"

Aaron smirked at her and said, "Yeah, next time. This time I'm not going to kill them, I'm going to make them into strigoi."

Kara smirked back and said, "They would make a good addition to our group."

They then began to talk about what they were going to do.
