The trip had gone too fast for Rose's taste.  Sure, it had been about ten hours since Dimitri had shown up at the gym and told her they were heading out instead of training today, but between the nerves at doing her Qualifier right now instead of in a few weeks like  they'd discussed and the incredible good fortune of being able to spend so much

"Not too much farther," Dimitri agreed, feeling good about the outing. His student was ready and Art was going to give her a recommendation the Headmistress would flip over. He was certain of it.

"So - you're sure there wasn't anyone else available other than Arthur Schoenberg?" Rose asked, knowing it was a stupid question.

Arthur Schoenberg. He was only a legend in the guardian world. Greatest living killer of the Strigoi, used to be head of the Guardian Council, and now apparently the guy doing Rose's qualifier. She didn't even know how to deal with that.

It was like she'd read his mind. Dimitri glanced at Rose and smiled at her reassuringly. "You'll be fine. Art's the best recommendation you could have on your record."

[guardianborn]

Art. Of course Dimitri knew the guy by his first name.

She nodded, shifting in the seat. "Yeah," she agreed, smiling back and continuing to worry about that record that included running away with a princess and basically getting kicked out of school.
