Anna smiled somewhat, "Good actually... she's not stuck up or anything which is nice. She'll hold a conversation and seems honestly interested in helping whatever Guardian she ends up with keep her safe... even if her parents are a little less open minded."

She glanced at the clock, the bell was going to go off soon. "Speaking of Basil, I better go find her... classes start soon."

Training for the Dhampirs wasn't until after lunch which meant that the first part of the day was left to guarding. It also meant that she'd have time to sort herself out.

She waved to Gunner and Niya and then headed off to find Basil.

Sebastian nodded, "Yeah, time for classes soon... you ready to go?"

He patted her head playfully and then headed in the direction of his first period. They hadn't gotten far when a Guardian dressed all in black leapt out from an open doorway and grabbed hold of him and pulled him back against them, yanking his head to the side. "Shit.. already?"

In an effort to buy Serena time to attack he threw his head back and hit the Guardian in the nose. It was effective in causing the Guardian to release him and stumble back with a curse.

Jordan smiled, "I got one of the Badicas.... she was starting school late because her dad was supposed to be coming back into town last night but she didn't come in to school today. I already checked for her." He shrugged, "Maybe they decided to drag out the happy home coming..."

He frowned when he heard a commotion out in the hall. "What's that?"

He got up and nodded in the direction of the hall, indicating she should follow so they could see what was up. What he saw was a Guardian attacking Sebastian and the girl that had introduced herself as Serena. "Why are they attacking so soon?"

Another Moroi who'd overheard him answered, "There was a strigoi attack last night... Two of the Badica kids were killed while they were sneaking out of their house..."

"Holy shit..." Jordan murmured. He hadn't known the Badica girl he was supposed to watch very well but he'd seen her around...
