                                                                               Chapter Three

After Rose had decided to accept Kirova's offer to Re-join the Academy and continue her training-on strict terms and conditions- our group split up. Guardian Chase took Princess Vasilisa away to choose her subjects. Alberta and I were told to escort Rose to the Careers counsellor-Which we did. It only took five minutes before Rose had her timetable sorted out and we headed off to her first class, which was "Advanced guardian combat techniques." On our way to the gym I snuck a peak at Rose, who was walking sluggishly behind Alberta and me, studying her timetable like it was a weird science experiment. She had a small frown on her face the whole time and then angrily she shoved the piece of paper into her pocket. I looked away quickly before she caught me staring at her, but I turned my head slightly so I could still see her out of the corner of my eye. She was staring intently at Alberta's head, completely focused on something. Her brows furrowed, she reached up to catch a lock of her hair and twisted it around her finger absentmindedly. She bit her lip and frowned. I took a quick look at the back of Alberta's head and didn't notice anything wrong with it, what on earth was she thinking then? The only thing I noticed about Alberta's hair was she had her hair cut short, which allowed her Molnija marks to show, they symbolised how many strigoi you had killed. Her promise mark was also tattooed their, meaning she would always stay faithful to the moroi and protect them, rather then turn into an evil immortal taking moroi as their victims every night. A lot of female guardians did this and Rose would most likely do it to, when the time comes for her to graduate and be out killing strigoi in the real world.

When we arrived at the gym, the class was amuck. Students talked animatedly in small groups, some standing some sitting. Not many students were doing the set task, which was setting up the equipment ready for training. The instructor had left the room, which wasn't a wise decision on his part. The room went eerily silent as Rose entered the gym, all eyes turned to stare at her. I could feel the tension building in the room as everyone wondered what she would do first. Rose stood there and scanned the staring open-mouthed novices, obviously looking for a familiar face. Most of the students in the class were male, that wouldn't help Rose's concentration one bit, I sighed. Her eyes rested on Mason Ashford, a male novice who could be a bit of a flirt, his jet red hair stuck up everywhere and a mat of freckles covered his pale face. A smile spread across Rose's face and I wondered if she thought he was attractive.

"Hey Mason, wipe the drool of your face. If you're going to think about me naked, do it in your own time." Rose taunted. I could barely contain my disgust. All of the novices thought it was hilarious of course. A few snorts and snickers broke the awed silence. Mason gave Rose a lopsided grin.

"This is my time, Hathaway. I'm leading today's session." Mason said cockily.

"Oh yeah?" Rose retorted. "Huh. Well, I guess this is a good time to think about me naked, then." I rolled my eyes at Rose's comment. How will she ever learn how to fight properly if she doesn't even have self-respect?

"Rose's back" Alberta muttered under her breath and a small smile made it's way onto her face.

"It's always a good time to think about you naked," added someone nearby. Eddie Castile I think his name was.
