end of fifth period.

Ew, it looks like

Aaron's tried to replace you

with a little keychain version.

God, I hate high school.

Princess.

Headmistress Kirova is ready for you.

Come on.

It's all so unprecedented. I'm at a loss

coming up with proper punishment.

As Lissa's guardian...

You're not an official guardian,

Hathaway.

You are a novice.

You put Vasilisa

at the mercy of the Strigoi,

who would love to destroy,

or even worse, transform...

It was my idea to leave.

Rose only did what...

A trained guardian knows...

Ellen, please.

- Victor.

- Lissa.

Ah.

Prince Dashkov, you look so...

Yes. My Sandovsky's syndrome

has gotten worse.

Oh, Victor,

we never meant to worry you.

Headmistress,

these girls have been

through so much.

As provost of this school

and Lissa's father's

oldest friend,

I beg you,

look into your heart.

Vasilisa,

I have the utmost sympathy

for the loss of your parents

and your brother, Andre.

But why did you flee

a heavily guarded compound

of Moroi students

from all over the world?

It's not easy to explain.

Lissa felt more in danger here

in your secure environment

than on the outside

as an anonymous teenager.

Fascinating.

This is where you give me specifics.

Where's Ms. Karp?

She should be here.

She can maybe shed some light

onto the situation.

Ms. Karp is no longer

part of this institution.

I...

This is where you give me specifics.

What do you mean?

It's not important!

Vasilisa Dragomir is

from one of the 12 royal families.

She's the last of the Dragomir line.

With my condition taking

the Dashkov family out of contention,

Lissa is a possible

successor to the throne.

But you, Hathaway, a Dhampir girl

cut off from the community,

out on civilian streets without a dime

or a Social Security number?

"Blood whore" is such an ugly term,

but I'm sure Moroi men

on business trips would pay a lot

for the especially sweet taste.

Headmistress Kirova.

- They have the bond.

- That's... that's impossible.

In my brief observation period,

Rose could tell what Lissa

was thinking or feeling,

sometimes without being

in the same place.

What a rare and wonderful gift.

This doesn't take away from the fact

that Rose Hathaway is wild, dangerous...

- insubordinate, vulgar.

- Right here, folks. Right here.

But the number of female Dhampir

guardians has gone down

way too much to risk losing one

with such potential.

Ellen, what this impressive new

guardian says seems reasonable.

We're so sorry, Headmistress.

After the crash, I lacked

a strong parental figure to confide in.

I'm afraid Rose and I

got in way over our heads.

Two crazy kids.

Hathaway can stay,

but no extracurricular activities,
