 This is a fan fic, a spin-off of Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy. No copyright intended.

     I opened my eyes, and felt different, so different. I didn't feel anything emotionally, but physically. I felt stronger, and I liked it. I felt powerful, which I had never really felt before in my life. Now that I had been changed, they didn't think I was going to run off, so they didn't care where I went. I decided to wait until night, so I wouldn't get fried alive, to hunt. I wanted my first kill to be a guy, one that thought he was gonna get laid. This was gonna be fun as hell.

     I got up and walked into the bathroom, looking in the mirror at my extremely pale skin and bright red eyes, I looked good. Immortality suited me quite well. I had to get new clothes as well, maybe some clubbing for clothes, clubbing would be a good place to find guys. I smirked at my reflection and walked out. I had to do something to pass the time before I could go out, so I decided to practice my fighting with the guys, getting my ass kicked a lot, since I was knew to the whole vampire thing, but I slowly started to learn and get better, it probably wasn't a good idea for them to teach me so much, but I guess they didn't think about the possibility that they were, they just wanted a fight, the bloodlust was pretty strong in them, I suppose. It was quite strong in me as well.

Adrian's POV

     As I stood outside having a smoke, and downing a bottle of vodka, I thought about how much of an idiot I was, how could I let her go? Now she was either dead, being tortured, or a Strigoi. I didn't like any of those possibilities, so I continued to drink, and wish that I'd never met her, so that she would never have had to be in this situation, she'd be dating a nice, normal guy, a human, who wouldn't have got her in this kind of a mess.

I'm such an idiot.

My phone went off for what seemed like the thousandth time in the past half hour. I decided to answer it, more out of boredum.

"Hello?" I answered, my voice sounding gloomy and dull, even to myself.

"What's eating at you, Ivashkov?" Rose's voice said from the other line.

"I'm a complete and utter idiot." I said, not even thinking of what I was saying, as I continued to drink, almost finishing off the bottle of vodka.

"What happened now?" Rose asked, and I could hear her sighing from the other end.

"Laura's gone." I said,

"What did you do to chase her off? Rose asked

"I didn't chase her off," I growled, and I told her the whole story, starting from when Laura's friend Shayla was kidnapped.

Rose was not happy.

"YOU FUCKING IDIOT." She screamed through the phone, "HOW COULD YOU LET THEM TAKE HER?! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" 

I could hear Lissa on the other end, asking what was going on, and Rose recapping her, but the short verision.

"Shit." I heard from the other end, Lissa's voice.

Rose piped up again, "Im coming down, and we are going to get her ass back home."

"What if they turned her?" I asked, speaking for the first time in a few minutes.

There was silence on the other end

After a few minutes, Rose spoke up, sounding surprisingly calm, maybe Lissa or Dimitri found a way to calm her down, "We just have to hope she hasn't been."

"BUT WHAT IF SHE IS?!" I yelled at her, becoming angry that she was calm when the love of my life was in the hands of 3 Strigoi, "You have to bring a stake, one that's capable of restoring a Strigoi, if wielded by a Spirit User, and you have to teach me to fight. If she has been turned, I am going to save her."

"Finally, you've come to your senses." Rose said, as my drunken state was fading, because we were going to save her, we had to. "I'll be there tomorrow morning," Rose replied "Be ready to train your fucking ass off."

She hung up.

Laura's POV

     It was finally dark enough for me to go outside without burning to a crisp, so I went to go to a store that was still open, closing in probably half an hour, to get some clothes. Once I entered, I was greeted by a young man, who looked tasty, since I was always a good actress, I decided to butter him up a little, maybe I would plan on meeting him later for dinner... I wasn't even planning on paying, just using compulsion to make him think I already paid, or something like that. Matt, Jake and Aiden didn't seen to have much in the intelligence category, it was all mostly brute strengthm which I used to my advantage. I got a few dresses for clubbing, most of them skin tight and showing off my curves, in different colors, some tight at the top and going out at the bottom, after all, I wanted to look my best, even though it probably wouldn't take much effort, I was already a babe.

     Once I had tried on everything I wanted to get, I walked up to the counter, but before I did, I fixed my shirt a little so that my cleavage was more visible, so I could use my feminine charm as well as compulsion, to add a little punch to getting what I wanted. I smiled at him, and to him it seemed friendly, but it was more of a hungry smile. I hadn't fed all day, and I was getting more irritated by the minute, wanting to feed on someone. Definitely someone who looked clean, not a hobo, because they'd probably have dirty blood.

The young guy, who looked about 3 years older than me had a nametag on his shirt that said "Ryan", good. I didn't like having to ask people's names, it was annoying, and he had told me he would be off work once he was done helping me, perfect.

"That'll be $349.99 please," Ryan said, glancing occasionally at my cleavage.

I smirked, "Look in my eyes, Ryan." I purred

He looked up, and once he looked in my eyes, I knew I was going to get these for free.

"Let me have these for free, and then you can finish up, and we'll go have dinner, but don't tell anyone that you let me have them free of charge. When"

     Ryan got the glazed over look, and then he agreed, doing what he needed to make it seem like I paid, made sure the security tape would make it seem like nothing was amiss, then we left the store. I lead him down a random alley, making sure that nobody was nearby, then I turned towards him, putting on a seductive face, pushed him against the wall, and leaned close enough to him to kiss him, but of course that wasn't my intention, unless I wanted to distract him for a minute before I drank the juicy red liquid running through his veins.

     I didn't want to actuall kiss him on the lips, so I decided to tease him a little, by kissing around his lips, then moving down to his jaw, then down to his neck, where I had the perfect opportunity. I opened my mouth, grazed my fangs against the skin of his neck, and he froze, so before he could react I bit into him, hearing hm sigh as the bliss of a vampire's bite envelopped him and made his mind go blank. I didn't drink too much from him, since I didn't want to have a dead body on my hands, it was hard though, I was so tempted to just drain his body completely of the red liquid I so craved.

     After I was done with him, I cleaned the blood off us both, and when he had awoken, I used compulsion to make him forget the whole ordeal, and told him to return home. As he left, I went back to the house to put my clothes in a closet, except for one outfit which was what I was going to wear as I looked for people to feed off of. I spent as much time as I could, seducing men, and then getting them to come into a dark alley with me, so that I could feed off them and then make them forget the whole thing. night started to end, I headed home, because I knew that it would not be a very good idea to be outside when the sun came up, I don't think anyone would want to be burnt alive, sounds pretty painful to me.
