[i]Why can't I see?[/i] The girl thought, staring through the black and the void of her vision. [i]Maybe it's safer here, where I can't see anything. It's just my own little world, my own little void.[/i] Ruby releases a loud sigh, before realizing that the source of the void and black of her vision was the fact that her eyes were shut. A shame, as Ruby would have enjoyed a longer rest, a longer separation from remembering what had occurred the night before. A second thing she realized was that the excruciating pain from the attack had vanished to nothing, something she was highly thankful for.

As she rose into a sitting position, Ruby realized that she was on her own. Nobody else was near her, and she felt like that was a good thing to happen to her. It meant there was no horrible wolf tearing into her, but on the other hand, it would mean that her friends were separated from her and if she needed help she would be unable to receive it. The girl took this moment to begin thinking about what next to do. [i]I could sit here and continue thinking, or I could try to get back to camp.[/i] Immediately, Ruby rose to her feet, looking around. She vaguely remembered which direction she had came from, and began to stumble that way. [i]More thinking time as I walk,[/i] she thought to herself.

[i]Why am I crying?[/i] Ruby thought, as she stumbled through the treeline toward the camp. Tears streaked down her cheeks, tears of sadness for what had happened, and tears of fear for walking back alone. Though being alone had benefits, they also had disadvantages. At the camp, Ruby saw some of her friends there. [i]Thank god,[/i] she thinks, stumbling toward the camp like she had just come from hell. Not knowing that the others were also attacked by a wolf, though seeing that it was possible they had too by the tears in some of their clothes, she moves over, wordless. She had no idea what to say. [i]I can't exactly say, 'oh, hey, I was attacked by a wolf. Cool stuff, eh?'[/i]
