"Rose? Rose wake up!" An urgent voice startled me out of my dream and dragged me into a nightmare.
"Dimitri? Heyyy. Did you miss-" Examining his face...his perfectly chiseled face I might add...I could tell that something was terribly wrong.
"Roza, I don't know how to tell you this but...we can't find Lissa."

I was awake.

"What do you mean you can't find Lissa? Why not? Where - why-" I began hopelessly.
"I'm so sorry." he said, teary eyed.
"Why the f- why are you sorry?" His chocolate eyes sparkled with tears, "NO!" I screamed, "No no no no no Dimitri...NO Why are you sorry? YOU HAVE TO LET ME GO LOOK FOR HER!" I was so desperately clawing at his shirt as if it would help me to get past him, my hot tears filled with sadness and guilt dripping onto my toes.

He held me. I don't know how long but he held me tight. He told me everything would be alright, and I laughed at this. Because it wasn't alright. It wasn't going to be. Dimitri whispered my nickname, "Roza" over and over until I fell asleep. But it wasn't going away in my sleep. Was she alive? Was she dead? I didn't know that, but the one thing I did know was that there was no way in hell that I was going to be stopped from looking for her.

The bond might've been gone, but I still could feel the faint hum of Lissa from time to time.

I could feel it now.

Vasilisa Dragomir was very much alive.
