An excuse..what would be a good excuse? Ugh! This is frustrating me! " Hey " I turn to see Logan, " hey " I smile, we hug a nice tight hug. We kiss happily, and my worries about Roma disappear. We pull away slowly, " I'm sorry I haven't been around " I tell him, " don't worry. Your focusing on class it's okay " he says, I smile. But then Bianca enters my mind. " I've seen you with Bianca " I tell him, he sighs, " I don't feel that way about her, not anymore. Your different then her. She's to girls for me, your.." he says taking my face in his hands, " are perfect " I smile and kiss him. I still didn't fully believe that, but I could tell he was telling the truth. He wouldn't lie to me, and he's not a very good liar either. We pull away, " Tasha told us you guys were going to Roma to visit her family. " Thanks Tash. Why didn't I think of that excuse! " yeah we are" I say smiling, " me and the others wanted to come. You know meet Tasha's family, the family who basically raised you " oh crap! " um..maybe. We're still trying to get the headmistress to let us go. " I tell him, " me and the others know that. We want to help. " Logan says, " you know, princess Anya and Adrian are coming too " I tell him, " why? " he asks, shocked. Think think! Aha! " well the princess has a royal gathering and Adrian in charge of her so he's going and he said the king wants me there. That's why I'm going " I say. now to think of an excuse for the headmistress and dad. " oh. Well me and the others will think if something. " Logan says and kisses my forehead then heads to the cafeteria. Now..excuse for dad and the headmistress..

I couldn't think. I actually couldn't think of an excuse! Dad and the headmistress were smart. They would need a full story to believe and it would have to be the same. I got it! I know what to tell them. I go into the library to meet my sister and Adrian. " alright " I say and sit beside Anya, " We tell the headmistress and dad that since I'm going with my friends to Roma and all, I don't want to leave Anya. And because your Anya guardian till I graduate you also have to come. " I say, smiling with triumph. " Wow. I like it " Adrian says, " same. But we will have to try to kinda change it so it's not exact every time " Anya says, smart girl. " your right. Add something or turn it to your own words. I'm gonna go tell the headmistress. You two tell dad? " I say, they nod and we go our separate ways. Here we go.

I knock on the headmistress office door, ' knock knock ' " come in ". I open the door and step inside closing the door behind me. " Ms smith. " I look at the headmistress and approach her. " may I help you " she asks, " Me and my friends as you know want to go see Tasha family in Roma. " I say, she nods. " Are we allowed? " I ask her, " I'm afraid that's something that's hard. For me to allow so many students to leave.." she says, think.." What if some guardians come, or police. We'll also have my sister and Adrian with us so it's not like we don't have people watching us. " I say, she looks at me. " " Adrian and your sister are going? Does your father know? " she asks, " there telling him right now as we speak. So please may we go. We'll come back after a well just please " I beg, I don't normally beg for anything. But I need to find these people and find out what the heck has been going on with me and Anya. " alright alright. You all may go. But I'm notifying the police in Roma, and sending six guardians with you for you, your sister and Adrian " wait why me? " why me " I ask, " your still a princess and and an alchemist. You still do need protection. " she says, great. " fine " I say, she nods. " alright. You only have a week then returning home if you don't. Then I'll send the whole guardian troops out after you " she says, I nod and leave her office thanking her. We can go! Yes! I'm coming you stupid vampires.

" we can go " I say and give everyone the permission slips. " you genius " Tasha says and hugs me, I smile and sit beside her and Logan. " how? " Carson asks, " I have my ways " I wink, him, Emily and Tasha understand.  " well done " Logan says and kisses my cheek. I smile and peck his lips. I glance to see Bianca talking to Susan and Margaret. " Oh. I've got to get going " I say and kiss Logan cheek then run to my father sweet.

I enter the sweet to see Anya sitting on the couch with Adrian. " talked " I ask them leaning on the couch behind them, " yep. He said okay as long as you were with us. " Anya says, I smile. " there my girl " I smile and turn to hug dad. " be careful in Roma. Last time we were in the human lands you got hurt badly. " dad says, I nod, " I promise I'll be careful " yeah not! " Alright you three understand that those people are still out there " dad says, he doesn't even really know what happened. I probably wasn't even just badly hurt, I was dead. Anya said my heart stopped beating. And ever since I've been..Anxious. An..I look at her, she looks at me, knowing I know how she's feeling. Scared, nervous. I nod, and dad leaves. I go to an and crouch I corny of her. " there not gonna hurt me An. And there not gonna get you. I'll make sure of it. " I promise her. She nods, " What happened at the mall? " Adrian asked, " my heart stopped beating. I was dead. Anya some how brought me back, and now things are really weird for us. We can't explain it. And that's why I'm trying to figure out what the hell they did and find hide blood suckers! Then find out what the heck is going on with me and An" I rant. Yes I was mad at those guys. I don't know how I'm breathing, and I don't know how I even died in the first place! It isn't normal! I'm suppose to be immortal! " how'd you die. Your immortal..aren't you? " Adrian says, " I don't know. All I know is that I did die. And I'm gonna find out how "  I say meaning every word. Those guys better hid well,  because there having an alchemist hunting them.
