Who| Ruby and You!

What| Waking up in District 9 suite. Rampaging her way down to the common area. Discovering Snow is alive. Then barging into District 8's Suite to find her friend.

Where| District 9 and 8 suites, with the common area in between.

When| Backdated to nearly the end of the arena.

Warnings/Notes| Splitting this into several phases. <3 She'll be increasingly irritated until she sees Snow, and then - after copious cuddling times - much calmer.

District 9 Suites: She felt a flicker of surprise when her eyes opened up. She'd been dead. She'd felt it when her heart beat stopped... she'd almost welcomed it, after the way Snow had died in her arms. The last thing she'd expected had been a mysterious revival. Her wounds seemed to be gone, at least. Though that still left her with the pain of Snow's death.

The last few seconds of her friend's life kept flashing through her mind. The left over dust from the caves coating her throat and lungs. Snow's gasps. The taste of those blood covered lips as she tried to blow a bit more air into her friend's lungs.

She forced herself to stand, shuddering as her feet hit the floor. Standing and moving toward the door. She didn't stop to think that she was still in her underwear.

----

Common Areas: Ruby fidgeted as she entered the room. She was properly dressed, now, but that didn't stop her from feeling cold. She was alive. Everyone who'd been in the arena was alive - or almost. It was true that Snow's body had disappeared... but did that mean the woman was really alive? Her pack mate? She wanted to believe it more than anything.

She scanned the area, searching for anyone who might give her a clue. Someone who might know where they'd taken Snow. Or where they took the bodies... Bad thought. Very bad. She had to keep up a front, at least, until she found out.

Flexing her feet, the werewolf,felt them dig into the shoes she'd found. The heels were too high for running, just as the green skirt was too low - and the bodice too tight. But she'd use that to her advantage if she could.

Maybe there was a guard around who liked to flirt more than they said.

----

District 8 suites: Ruby knew she wasn't supposed to be there. She half expected people to stand in her way, maybe try to throw her off. Anyone who tried would find themselves pushed away, though. All that mattered was Snow. Snow White. Not their president, not the stuff that fell from the sky - Snow White.

Anyone who got in the way of that was the enemy. Anyone who didn't have information was a distraction. She was a force of nature, stepping forward in her high heels and swishing skirts. The only thing that mattered was her getting her arms around her packmate. Kissing the woman's cheek. Holding the pale woman close. Hearing the heartbeat.

She was there. She was alive. She had to be.

(ooc: You can also find her in any of these places after she's calmed down. ^^ )

Cindy glanced over, appraising the girl for a moment. She had to be one of those that had just gotten out of the arena. They all seemed to have this wild eyed crazy look about them, which made perfect sense. They had just died and come back to life, after, what was more terrifying then that? But they did always make them look good when they got back, it seemed.

"God, I'd kill for those shoes. Think if I put in a request for them I'd get them?"

"I'd check the closets," she responded, continuing to look around. "Where are the other districts?" She'd search them all if that's what it took. She'd find Snow White. She'd find them, and take them home.

"Around?" Cindy waved her hand. "Everyone comes and goes, most of them are out at parties, the rest are just hanging around." She straightened up from her spot, taking a closer look at the girl's face.

"Who are you looking for?"

She opens her mouth, hesitating. It would sound weird to almost anyone, but... Snow didn't know about her other personality.

It didn't matter. She just had to find the woman.

"Snow White," she said.

Cindy blinked, her body stiffening before she quickly jumped up from her seat. That was not what she was expecting in the slightest. How could Snow show up here and she didn't know about it!?

"Snow's here!?" She exclaimed. "When did she get here? What the hell, she's supposed to be back at the Farm, god, she must be worried sick about the cubs. When did you last see her?"

The girl was getting stared at, now. "Snow doesn't live on a farm." And she doesn't have cubs, not counting Emma. Not in either world. "That was me." She's almost as confused and worried about this strange girl as she is about Snow...

Almost.

Not nearly.

Her gaze is already drifting past the woman. She needs to find someone else to talk to. Someone who can help.

"Well, you're technically right, she's at Wolf Manor, but that's not the point," Cindy waved her hand, looking at this girl a little more closely. She lived on the Farm? Humans didn't live on the Farm, not really. But maybe she had been at Golden Boughs? The way she seemed to be in her own little world...

"Hey." Cindy snapped her fingers. "What district is she in? She's probably on that floor."

"I'm the wolf," She corrected, absentmindedly - moving past Cindy and toward the stairs. Somewhere. Some floor. Ruby would find her. "She's Snow White."

Up the stairs. What district was Snow from? Harley had shown her some thing about that - she should be on the eighth floor. But where?

Ooookay. Yeah. No. Obviously this girl was on the crazy side more then anything else. She was the wolf? Didn't that girl, the blonde one, what was her name. Steph? Yeah, she said that the last arena had a Disney princess theme. This girl, whoever she was, was clearly off her rocker. She probably had a friend who got done up with whatever the princess thing was in the arena.

"Right, right," Cindy sighed, moving back towards the couch. "Well, you see Snow, tell her Bigby gives his best." She had to snort at her joke as she took a seat.
