Ruby's point of view:

I am wondering what that thing was back in the alley way. He called himself Slender man. Maybe I can look it up in the library later today. I still have the scar on my forearm where he hit me. I don't know when I stop thinking about slender man and when I start thinking about Ash. I will admit I think I am falling in love with him. I want to know if I am the girl Ash loves. Sapphire comes out of her room. I remember what she told me last night. She loves Ash and Ash doesn't love her back. I walk after Sapphire and I walk next to her. She stops walking and she looks at me and she breaks down and starts crying. I hug her and know then that I will try to get her together with Ash. I pull back and look her in the eyes and say "I will help you get together with Ash." She looks at me in shock and says "Even if he loves someone else?" I look at her and nod my head. I smile at her and say "come on lets get you two on a date." She looks at me and smiles. Just then Ash comes up to us and asks "whats up guys?" I look at him and ask "how did you sleep Ash?" He smiles and just replies "fine." I nudge Sapphire to get her to make a move. She looks at me and then asks Ash "Can we talk about the girl you love?" I sigh and mentally slap Sapphire for asking something stupid like that. I watch Ash and Sapphire leave for Ash's room and I leave for my room.

Sapphire's point of view:

We get to Ash's room and I close the door. Ash asks "what's up Sapphire?" I take a deep breath and get ready to ask the question that has been on my mind all night. I look at Ash in the eyes and ask "Why do you love Ruby? I mean you only met her like 3 days ago." He looks shocked that I would ask that. He looks me in the eyes and says "I love everything about Ruby. I love how beautiful she is and how she has a beautiful laugh. I love that she is kind, smart and kind of a bad ass." If I don't stop myself I would say I have those traits if not more, but I keep my mouth shut. I just nod my head and say "okay Ash." I leave his room, but before I do he asks "you haven't told anyone that I love Ruby have you?" I look back and shake my head adding "no I haven't told a soul." I walk to Ruby's room and knock on her door. A couple of seconds later she opens the door and asks "how did it go?" I finally let go and start crying and Ruby pulls me into her room and sits me down on her bed.

She says "listen Sapphire I am going to get you two together alright. I hate to see my friend sad." I'm confused. I look at her and ask "we are friends?" She smiles and laughs. "Of course we are." she says. I laugh and then I wonder does Ruby love anyone. I look at her and ask "Ruby do you love anyone?" She hesitates and doesn't say anything. I look at her and ask again "Ruby do you love anyone?" She sighs and nods her head. "Who?" I ask. I have to know. She hesitates, but finally says "Ash, I love Ash." I can't believe it. Here I am being selfish and Ruby is still willing to get me and Ash together even though she loves him. I mean she doesn't know that Ash loves her back, but I'm not going to tell her that. I realize Ash and I weren't meant to be. We were in that hell hole for 5 years and here they both are falling in love with each other after knowing each other for 3 days. I make up my mind and make a plan of setting Ruby and Ash up. I am so deep in thought I don't realize how dizzy I feel. I also don't hear Ruby say "Sapphire?" I look at her and feel the dizziness hit me. I fell backwards and the last thing I hear before blacking out is Ruby screaming my name.

Ruby's point of view:

Sapphire asked who I love and I told her the truth. I probably shouldn't have, but I do. She looks shocked when I tell her that I love Ash. She is so deep in thought I don't think she hears me say her name. She looks at me and all of a sudden she starts losing her balance until she fell backwards. When I go to catch her I scream her name and am able to catch her before she hits the ground. What happened? I start feeling dizzy and know I am about to blackout too. I run to Ash's room and see he's on the floor out cold. I see Emerald in the hallway out cold on the way to the cortex. I run into the cortex and see my dad down on the floor. I run to the controls, but before I can set a place for the T.A.R.D.I.S to land I black out.
