Spirit Bound Chapter 5

The fifth chapter starts out with the newly graduated vampires getting ready to go to the ball. The ball is for the moroi who are living at the court to put in bids for their Guardian of choice. The Royal families then choose who they will be placed with. Lissa of courses wants to be placed with Rose but while at the ball they find out that Tasha Ozera, who is Lissa's ex-boyfriend's aunt, also put in a bid for Rose.

At the party Lissa and Rose were met by the Queen of the Royal court, Tatiana, who was the one who made special plans with Lissa to stay at the royal court and get the chance to go to a larger college because she took a special interest in her. Lissa was the last of the Dragomirs after her family died in a car accident. Rose however, was normally not on the queen's good side. The queen however called them both over for a conversation. She went on to tell them that Lissa could go visit the college Lehigh University, where Lissa would be attending in the fall, and could take Rose with her, which excited Lissa. Rose didn't want to let Lissa down on the fact that if their plan was actually to work on breaking into the prison, that they wouldn't be able to make the college trip.

After the conversation with Tatiana, Rose me up with her good friend Eddie who was also a guardian. She needed to ask him something but felt guilty about it because it could put his whole life in danger. He knew right away something was wrong and wouldn't take a "nothing" for an answer, so Rose asked the question. she asked him if he would come with them on their prison break trip and he immediately agreed to. He sort of felt he owed Rose, because she saved his life twice, but he agreed out of friendship and loyalty. 

The night came ( which was really day-light out), and they all met up a garage on court. There Rose, Lissa, and Eddie met up with  Mikhail, who was the guardian Rose ran into in headquarters. He didn't believe her plan could work but he hoped it would, so he told Rose he was all in for it and wanted to join. He was then used for their escape route, since court guardians could leave without being questions. He piled Rose, Lissa, and Eddie into the trunk of a new black Doge Charger and then he drove off to the front gates. It took a minute once he got to the gates through, but with little hesitation he got through. Once he was far enough from the court's gates Mikhail pulled over and let them out of the trunk. The then piled into the car and were off to the airport to catch the next flight to Alaska ( where the prison currently was).
