They're now in the living room sitting down.

Amethyst: (she suddenly runs into the room). There are you girls are! So what did I miss?

Judy: You better take a seat it's complicated. Ruby we came in to your house originally just to stop Silvia from hurting any humans in this house. So why did that teenage boy do what I saw him do?

Ruby: (she stares at the floor with her arms folded sadly). Well his name is Max and he's my older brother!

Judy: (she had a stunned look on her skull)! WHAT!?

Ruby: (She began to be on the verge of tears again). He was abusing me! He threatened to killed my parents if they interfered or if I tried to run! And now that my parents are gone, what am I going to do now? (She called herself down but then got a very serious look on her face). And here's the thing. I'm only nine years old but I know exactly the reality of my current situation is. However I know they're going to an orphanage is not the best idea. The system isn't very nice to traumatized kids. The parents who would be trying to adopt would only see me as crazy and mentally unstable.

Judy: (she then stood up). Well I have an idea! But first if you could please excuse me for a moment. I have to call someone. (She then walks into the front room and dials for father's number). Hey Dad we've defeated Silvia! However there is a delicate situation now.

Jack : That's good that you to feed Sylvia. But what do you mean by delicate situation Judy.

Judy: Well we found Silvia inside someone's house. And there was a family of four inside. But we defeated Silvia before she could hurt any of them. It turns out the older brother named Max was abusive. He only abused his little sister, but killed the parents as well!

Jack: What! That's the most horrible thing I've ever heard!

Judy: So Dad, her name is Ruby. Can we adopt her? I just need the permission in case she says yes to the offer.

Jack: yes of course we can adopt her but in the end it's her decision.

Judy: Thanks Dad. (She hangs up and goes back to the living room then sits back down). So Ruby what do you think of the holiday Halloween?

Ruby: it's the best holiday ever!

Judy: (She stands up proudly). Well do I have some news for you Ruby. I am the princess of Halloween and I live in the birthplace Halloween town!

Ruby: Wow that is so awesome!

Judy: So Ruby would you like to come live with me and my family in Halloween town?

Ruby: Yes a thousand times yes! I'd love to! But I'd like to say goodbye to my parents one last time before I go. I'll be right back. (She walks into the kitchen and leans down over her parents tearfully). Goodbye Mom goodbye Dad I'm sorry I couldn't save you I miss you already. But it's going to be all right I know you're in a better place and I found a safe place to call home now it's really cool! but don't worry I'm going to be all right too! (Then she walks back to the others). OK I'm ready to go! So how are we gonna transport my stuff there though?

Judy: I just teleported them to your new room. You see one of the traits of my family is sorcery.

Ruby: Wow that's so neat! Lead the way Judy!

Then they all run back to Halloweentown and to the Skellington Manor porch.

Judy: (She walks up to Jack). Hey Dad we're back!

Jack: glad you're all back here safely.

Ruby: (she walks up to Jack). Hi there I'm Ruby so you're supposed to be my new father right?

Jack: yep that's right. And just in case if you're curious my name is Jack. Yeah please follow me Ruby and I'll introduce you to the rest of the family.

Ruby: OK daddy! (She winks playfully as she said this).

Amethyst: Well I'm gonna teleport home. My dad will be worried because I've been taking so long to get back home. Hey Shelby would you like me to teleport you to your house too?

Shelby: Yes I'd love that thank you!

Amethyst: (Amethyst then teleports her and Shelby to Shelby's house).

Shelby: Well this was an interesting adventure. Bye Amethyst, see you later.

Amethyst: Bye Shelby. (She teleports herself to her dad's base).

Zim: Oh Amethyst I'm so glad you got home safely.

Amethyst: (She starts to walk to her bedroom). Good night Dad!

Meanwhile at Skellington Manor

Sally: Um Jack, who is this little human girl with you?

Ruby: (she walks over to Sally). Hi my name is Ruby. And it's a complicated story.

Slenderman: Well then let's go into the living room.

Then they all head for the living room.
