Running Away From Nothing To Everything.

Chapter Thirty-six

Above is the ??? Guy looks like. Still no name for him yet that is still a mystery.

*Edited*

Elijah's pov.

I was walking around and checking on some of the pack members when Roman came up to me. "Is Ruby feeling ok?" "What do you mean?" "Like when I first met her she was sweet and kind but now I asked about the attack and missing wolves and she acted cold and uncaring." "She is just stressed." "Oh ok." "Now please go train or something I'm busy and need to find Ruby." I watch as he walks away. I do need to ask her if she is ok. I'm sure it's just stress. I walk around and sniff around before I finally see her. "Hey Ruby can we talk?" What came next I wasn't ready for. She turned around and growled at me. She ran in the pack house and went to our room and locked the door. I called her sister to see if she knew what was going on.

"Hello this is Christine." "Hey it's Elijah." "What's going on?" "Ruby just growled at me and is acting weird." "Is she on any medication?" "No, nothing." "I think I know what's wrong." "What!?" "Just listen, you need chocolate and lots of it, then you need to feel a bathtub up with ice and water, and keep the minimal amount of people away from her." "So why is she acting so weird?" "She is on her girl time which makes her unpredictable and you can't take anything she says against her." "I would never." "I know you wouldn't but don't let any of the pack members think I'll about her. Nothing she has done in the last day can't be held against her." "I'll make sure they know to not hold anything against her." "Good now I got to tend to my pack." "Thanks for your help." "No problem."

I hang up the phone to find chocolate and get the tub ready. I told the pack to not disturb Ruby and that they should not hold any grudges against her because she isn't herself right now. I found two boxes of chocolate and put ice into the water in the tub. I knocked on the door and told her I got her some chocolate to help calm her nerves. "Chocolate?" "Yes." "I feel so weird and my body feels hot." "I have a bath ready for you if you want to cool off." "Ok, I'm coming out, don't let anyone see me." "No one else is in the house right now." I hear the click of a lock and she comes out. I take her to the bathtub and help her get in. Once she was in I handed her the first box of chocolate. She told me to leave and help lead the pack and that they would need someone to guide them. I agreed as long as she would mind link me if she needed anything. I left and walked around checking on everyone.

??? Pov.

Well the attack went well. She did what she was told. No one knows who took them or where they went. All the packs are worried and talking about what happens next. I also heard that Ruby said some things that upset her pack. I also heard Ruby has been acting weird. I wonder if something is wrong. I hope she is ok; I don't want her hurt. I go and visit the prisoners and some look scared others just look sad. "If you wish to join step to the left, if not step to the right. The ones on the right will go through a trail to determine their punishment." I watched as people started moving left some looked in doubt but none was stepping right.

I watched as most moved left there was four remaining. "You have one minute to finish deciding." That made one walk over to the left and I could tell the last three where watching each other as if waiting for one to make a move. "Thirty seconds remaining." I watch as one finally cracks and steps left, one of the others follow. "Ten seconds remaining." He looked to the right and looked left. "Five seconds remaining." He runs to the left not wanting to see what kind of trail he would have had to go through. "Good now my friend Dan here will put you in groups that you have the same skill as. The ones who are faster will be a runner, strong ones will be fighters, so on and so on." "If you will all follow me please." I watch as they all follow Dan, some looked happy and others looked surprised. I'm glad that they have joined and soon they will see that we aren't as bad as some say.

I just hope Ruby will be able to understand when I get a hold of her that we aren't monsters, we just have to do some things that seem bad to get to our goal. It's how I have such a big group; I have told them that in order to be treated better we need to work towards one goal. A goal that everyone can help with, a goal that when a group of people work towards it it's considered one organization that is well respected. One goal we can all agree on and do anything for just so it can happen. It doesn't matter if one may fall or if one tries to stop the us because we are a group and will not crumble because of one.

We will work together as a whole and show others that sometimes doing the wrong thing is the right thing to do. Sometimes you need to things that others aren't willing to do, you need to things others are trying to stop you to do just to show them later that you were right. It may not make sense to everyone but as long as we stick together no one can bring us down.

What did you think of the rant? Do you think he is a bad guy or just misunderstood? Catch you in the next chapter.
