The Vampire Academy Diaries

Strogi

We didn't get punished that badly. By the time we were let out of the headmistress' office everyone was in class. We were told that we didn't have to go to class today so we just walked around the campus. When we walked by the woods I heard a noise and I thought Christian was just playing around with me so I went towards where the noise was coming from. I couldn't find Christian and I was about to go back when someone grabbed me. Suddenly everything was dark.

............

I opened my eyes and I saw an empty room. I couldn't move my arms or legs.

Rose?

Christian?

Thank goodness your okay.

What happened?

Zoey and Nate were turned strogi.

Zoey and Nate?

I'm sorry.

How are we going to get out of here?

I don't know.

Can you burn the ropes?

Not without injuring you more. When they took you you were stabbed.

I don't feel anything.

I don't want to hurt you.

You won't. We need to hurry.

Fine.

I felt flames licking my wrists and a door slammed open. Zoey. I reached for Christians hand but he wasn't there. He was attacking Zoey. I got free of the ropes and went to help Christian. Before I could get over to him someone grabbed me. Nate. He pulled me back and I couldn't move. Christian killed Zoey and was coming to help me. I tried to kick back and I hit something. I hit Nate and I grabbed a rope from the ground. I pulled him against a cage door and it was around his throat. Christian grabbed the stake he killed Zoey with and plunged it into his chest. I let go of the rope and slid down the bars. Christian came over and tried to see if I was okay. I wasn't though.

"Roza. I'm sorry Roza. It's my fault." he said while whispering Roza over and over again.

"No it's not. We made it through together."

"I love you Roza."

"I love you too."

That is the last thing I remember from that night. The night we killed two strogi. Now Nate was dead.
