Ruby dropped the shovel, after filling the last grave with soil. She had just dug and filled 37 graves. She had murdered 37 people.
The Waithe lit candles, before she sat on a bench and faced the graves. Monica took a seat beside her. "I can't believe I did this..." The hybrid exhaled. "I killed 37 people— I killed someone's children, someone's parent... someone's brother or sister." She rambled before letting out a sigh, as she was filled with the regret.
"The difference between you and most vamps that turn off their emotions, is that you regretted it. You took the time to dig graves for those you killed, and put them to rest." Monica said before Ruby snapped her head towards the blonde. "But that still doesn't make any of this okay." She admitted.
"No.. but it makes you better than the majority of vampires.. I'd go to say that you're the best of us." She said, trying to lighten the mood, but it didn't seem to work.
"Cmon, let's head back to the school." The Montgomery said, getting to her feet. Ruby took one last look at the graves, before also getting to her feet to follow Monica to her car.
Sometime later they arrived back at the school. "Where are all of the other students?" Ruby asked Alaric. "I sent them all home for the week... I was worried that you might have... hurt them." Alaric admitted as Ruby nodded reluctantly. "Understandable."
Ruby began walking towards her dorm, leaving Monica and Alaric. "She's not doing too good." The vampire spoke, as they watched her walk away. "She killed a lot of people... it would be a lot to bear."
Monica's breath hitched before she finally said what she was really thinking, "Ric... I'm not sure if Ruby will get through this." The Saltzman turned to the vampire. "She will. I have an idea.." He admitted.

Ruby had mostly kept to herself, disgusted by her actions. She had seen Hope, and it wasn't the exciting reunion everyone would have expected, the hybrid was actually quite a mess as she had approached her girlfriend.
Lizzie suddenly approached the common room, where Monica, Jordan, Josie, Hope and Ruby were seated. "Pack your bags guys, we're going to Europe!" She announced, clapping her hands together. "Wait, really?!" Monica asked as she excitedly, got off of the couch.
Lizzie gave her girlfriend a nod, before sinking into the seat beside Ruby. "My Mum has some contacts all around Europe that could help you. Think of them as, supernatural psychologists." The blonde said. "Wait... you did this for me?" The hybrid asked in surprise as Lizzie nodded. "Yep, we'll be catching a plane tonight so everyone, pack your bags!" Lizzie concluded.
