[Ruby's nervous when she opens up her journal. After all, her request is highly unusual and is likely to raise some questions. She supposes that she should tell everyone that she's a werewolf. Magic seems to be accepted here, after all. But then again, magic was accepted in the Enchanted Forest, too, and she was still hunted.

She takes a deep breath, then lets it out slowly]

Hello, Paradisa. I was wondering if anyone just happened to have a giant cage laying around. Preferably one that is able to contain a ferocious beast that's bigger than most men and hard to injure. I...I have a bit of a furry problem that I need to deal with. I mean, normally I can handle it but after what happened on...on that ship, I feel like I need to take precautions.

[She's trying to sound nonchalant so she doesn't worry anyone, but she has the distinct feeling that she may be failing slightly in that regard]

[Filtered to Emma]

I need to ask for a favor from you.

[Like so many others, Ruby woke up only to find herself in the clinic. The smell made her stomach churn. Medicine, blood, death. She wanted to run, to get as far away as she could. Unfortunately, her injuries made it impossible for her to do so.

Her left shoulder and arm are bandaged and placed in a sling to help keep it from moving. Her right side and arm is stitched up and bandaged. There are bruises all over her face and a bruise and cut along her neck. She was also in a lot of pain, but refused to say anything about it. There were people far worse off than she was. They needed the attention of the doctors more than she does.

She picks up her journal and slowly opens it. After a moment, she puts a couple of filters into place and begins to speak]

Dead. They're all dead and it's because of me. Peter, the guys from our village, Mother, Quinn, even Billy. They all died because I'm a wolf, a monster. It's no wonder that everyone leaves me, that I'm always alone. I'm unlovable, someone who'll always kill or chase away those I love.

[Her voice turns sing songy]

Monster, monster, monster.

[There was a broken sob, then a scream, shortly followed by a laugh]

Death. We all deserve death. You all deserve death.

[A beat of silence, then]

You're spiraling, too, aren't you? Even the Lewis and Clark shall be untouched by hell. It's coming for you. You're all going to dieeee, too.

[This is filtered to the folks who aren't trying to kill people and only to those on the Event Horizon. Her breathing is raspy and it's clear from her tone of voice that she's badly frightened. Her voice is weak from blood loss. ]

Does anyone know what happened to the people who disappeared? Are they all acting...murderous? Also, is the clinic safe? I...I'm in need of medical assistance. I had a little run in with Lucrezia.

[There's a sudden hiss of pain, as if she moved or did something else that would jar the wound]

Also is it just me or...or is anyone else hearing things? Seeing things? Voices? Shadows? Shapes?

[The fear was definitely clear now. She sounded close to tears, it's possible that she already was]

So, I've been here a couple of days and I thought it about time that I introduce myself to everyone. My name is Ruby Lucas, but I occasionally go by Red. Before coming here, I used to work in my Granny's diner and I have a few other talents besides. Other than that, I'm not particularly special.

[She pauses think a moment, then a sigh is heard]

I really don't know what else to say. I suppose if you have any questions, feel free to ask them!
