Ruby's pov

After i finish up with everyone lilac makes them into our symbol "nice touch" i say "thank you" she says "hey ruby did you have to do that" teal asks "do what" i ask "did you have to make that girl choose" she asks "i know how you feel about killing children so i chose her since she wouldn't know what she has done and she would most likely pick friends who would also be kids" i say "alright but it still doesn't feel right making a small child go through that" she says "im sorry how about next time you can choose who picks" i say "ok" she says and we head back to mother

"that was quick" mother says "they grouped themselves up for us" i say "i saw the news report they did on you and i have to say good job" she says "thank you we do what we can" i say "anyway i have a problem" she says "what is it" i ask "well cinder has ran away" she says "do you know the reason" i ask "it seems she didn't like how strong you were getting and decided to get stronger on her own" mother explains "do you want us to get her back" i ask "no i want you to kill her" she says "understood" i say "she is not the only one" mother says "who are the rest" i ask and mother throws down pieces of paper each with a person on it labeled different seasons "the maidens" i say "yes and i believe you know one of them" mother says and i see its raven "well isn't that funny" i say "you have your targets but remember each one of you must kill a different one" mother says "alright it will be done soon" i say before we walk out the door

We track down cinder to what's left of atlas finding her in the now abandoned school with emerald and mercury and i jump down "hello cinder" i say and she looks at me before disappearing "emerald don't try my patience" i say picking up a rock and knocking out emerald with it but by then cinder is gone "you have chosen the wrong side" i say to mercury before cutting him in half and stabbing emerald in her sleep following the tracks cinder left i turn a corner and am blasted with fire i look up and see her standing there and an idea pops into my head and i use my silver eyes on her and she reels back in pain "don't think i forgot about the grimm in your hand" i say grabbing her by the hair "you shouldn't have ran" i say stabbing her and i feel a surge of power go through me "oh that was much better than expected" i say and the others join me "who's next" i ask "next is the winter maiden she lives in the forest between atlas and mistral" teal says "well lets go then" pitch says and we walk off

We get outside of the cabin "teal this one is yours" i say and teal walks up to the cabin knocking on the door "who are you" the girl asks "im teal" she says "what's a girl your age doing out here alone" the girl asks "i got lost and now i don't know where i am" teal says "you poor thing please come in" she says and teal walks in it is quiet for a couple of minutes until we hear a scream and teal walks out "its done" she says "excellent job" lilac says "that was good acting i almost thought you were lost to" pitch says "well we should go we don't know the location of the summer or spring maidens" teal says "well i may know the location of the spring maiden but not the summer" i say "alright then where might the spring maiden be" teal asks "patch" i say "you think she's with them" teal asks "last time i saw her that's where she was" i say "alright then i guess that's are next location" pitch says and we head off

We get outside of the house and i send lilac in so they don't freak out "hello" summer says opening the door "hello is there a raven brawnwen here" lilac asks "yes why" summer says "i have a message to tell her" lilac says "she is injured can you just pass the message on to me" summer says "of course tell her that her sacrifice will not be in vain" lilac says happily almost making me shudder "who are you" summer asks and teal puts her to sleep and we meet back up "man you can be scary when you want" pitch says to lilac and we walk in heading upstairs "guess everyone is gone" i say "i don't like how quiet it is" pitch says "yeah something is up keep watch" i say to her "alright" she says and we walk up and start checking the rooms "ruby" lilac says "did you find something" i ask "yeah a note" she says and we walk in "you're gonna have to try harder than that" it says and i see something moving from the corner of my eye "get down" i say and they do a shot going right where lilacs head was "get away from windows" i say and we quickly get out of the room seeing pitch filling the downstairs with smoke "we're surrounded" she says "we figured" i say "what do we do now" lilac asks "im gonna get caught" i say "you're gonna what" teal asks "i can find the location of the other maidens if i am captured" i say "they will kill you" pitch says "you can't kill death" i say "alright then what's the plan" teal asks
