I wake up. I get changed, try to cover up my Cuts, Scrapes, bruises, and the whole nine yards with clothes. I do a pretty good job except I have a black eye. I put my hoodie on over my head completely and my face is shaded and barely seen by anyone. I take Sarah to a doggy daycare and go to school. Garroth, Laurence, Aphmau and Aaron notice me. I look shady. They walk over. "Hey Ruby!" Aphmau says sweetly. "Heyo Ruby" Garroth says smiling a toothy grin. I walk right by not even looking up going to my locker. They're confused. They come over while I'm doing things in my locker. "You okay, Ruby?" Laurence says leaning against the locker next to mine. "yea..Everything's fine.." I say in a quiet voice like a mouse. "Show your beautiful face at least, Ruby" Garroth says while he pulls off my hoodie. They see my black eye and I'm emotionless, tired, have bags under my eyes and my eyes are red as well. I keep doing my own things. "Omi! What happened?" Aphmau says looking at it. I say mumbling to myself, "Got beat up.." they hear. "Who?! I'm going to beat their sorry little!-" Garroth says angry but then I slam my locker shut. "Just, leave it alone! It's not a big deal." I say walking away, putting my hoodie up and going to class. The 4 looks at each other confused and angry. *After classes* It's lunch. I take a seat at a lonely table. I see Ein and his werewolf friends walk over to me and sit down. I have fear in my eyes. "Hello beautiful.." Aaron is watching the whole time. "H-hi..." I say quietly to Ein. Aaron's ears perk up to listen in. Ein whispers something into my ear. "If you tell anyone about what happened, it'll happen again and again and again..got it?" He leans back away smiling. I stand up and quietly say, "May I be excused? I need to use the bathroom." Ein nods and I run out of the room crying once I leave the lunch room. I run into the girls bathroom and play with something in my pocket. I pull out a pocket knife. I've sharpened it so that it'd be sharper. "Guys. I just saw Ruby run out of the room. You should check on her,  Aph." Aphmau gets up and walks towards the bathroom. I open the blade part of the Pocket Knife. I start cutting in the girls bathroom at the sink. I cut for the third time but..this time a LOT of blood comes out. I realized I cut the big vain that circulates the blood into the hands and other places. I start to feel dizzy. Aphmau walks in "Ru-" she sees the blood everywhere, my pocket knife on the ground and me slouched over the sink crying. Aphmau rushes over. "RUBY!" Aphmau says. She helps me and tries to stop the bleeding. I almost fall onto the ground. Aphmau helps me back up but, I pass out from loss of blood and collapse on the floor. Aphmau is freaking out and crying. She screams down the hall, "SOMEONE HELP!" she's still crying when she screams that. Aaron hears. "Aphmau and or Ruby is in trouble!" Aaron says dashing out of the room. Garroth and Laurence do the same and follow Aaron. They see Aphmau near the door. "One of you go get the teacher!!" Aphmau says crying into her hands. "What's wrong?!" Garroth asks. Laurence rushes to go get a teacher. "She cut herself and she cut her vain! She's passed out and she's bleeding a lot!" Aphmau grabs toilet paper and starts to wrap it around the cut. "Stop bleeding..." Laurence comes back with a teacher. The teachers eyes widen and she calls an ambulance.
