(Emerald is about to go on an adventure!)


Emerald gives Ruby a big ol' hug, and tells her that he's happy that she's happy.

"Yeah, okay, okay!" She says, pushing Emerald off of her with a smile, "I'm cleaning, don't you have to pack and stuff?"

Emerald nods and smiles himself, going over to his room and gathering everything he can into his pack. He reflects on his situation for a while. It wasn't too long ago that he was trapped in his step parents castle, and it's been even less time since he escaped into the wide world, afraid and with no idea what he was going to do, only knowing that going back wasn't an option.

Emerald takes it all in for a second, just sitting there on his floor hugging his backpack tightly, and then wonders if he should perhaps write to Sensoria or Matilda to tell them where he is going.

He remembers that he sent Sensoria a letter already, and realizes that he shouldn't send one to Matilda, since it's likely she is back at Hope's father's house. Then Emerald realizes with a frown that Hope hasn't wrote to him for a while… He wonders if she is okay…

After washing up Emerald meets Ruby and Joyride outside.

"Hey there lil' perv. You ready?" Joyride asks.
