A/N: Lol been a while. Ah well, can't be helped. I'm back. And the plot line is discovered so soon we get into the juicy bits! Dorothy and Ruby are in for an adventure soon and I betcha no one is going to suspect just what this adventure will detail!
Ruby had left Dorothy sleeping in the hammock on the patio, it was the day after she had told Dorothy about the claiming. Now that she knew Dorothy was okay with everything, they could finally enjoy the rest of their stay at Regina's cabin. (Of course, the world they live in doesn't work that way and right about now a strong witch from another land is in fact summoning our two heroes right now.)
Dorothy quickly awoke after she began to feel a tingling sensation all over her body. Ruby feeling the same sensation, and not trusting it, rushed to Dorothy's side and held on tight. This strange sensation felt like magic, which it was, and Ruby had felt this before when she had used Dorothy's slippers to travel to Oz. But neither of them were wearing any magical items this time.
"Someone is summoning me." Dorothy said. She knew more than Ruby did about magic, do to her time with the witches of Oz, mainly Glinda. Could it be Glinda that was summoning them?
"How do you know?"
"I've felt this before, when Zelena took over Oz. Somehow, someone was able to contact me by using this same magic."
"Well, what happened?" Ruby asked she was holding on to Dorothy's hand, a little frightened to let go, in fear that Dorothy might disappear.
"I got this terrible feeling of dread fear and shock. I heard someone say 'Oz needs you Dorothy' , and after that I just ran to get the slippers then hightailed it out of Kansas." Dorothy explained with emphasis on her disdain for Kansas. Ruby didn't dare ask how she had been doing in Kansas.
"What about now? All I feel is a tingling sensation." Ruby asked. She had no idea what was going on, if someone was trying to summon Dorothy, Ruby was just in the crossfire.
"I feel, loss and sadness. It's awful, the worst I've ever felt… in a long time." Dorothy explained. She gave Ruby's hand a squeeze, making sure that her love was still with her and then she felt tears roll down her cheeks. Dorothy quickly brushed them away and ran towards the house with Ruby in tow. They were just past the kitchen when Dorothy turned Ruby around and looked at her with a gleam in her eyes that Ruby hadn't seen sense they first met.
"Wolfie, I hope you don't mind an adventure to close our vacation?"
"Not at all. So where going back to Oz?" Ruby asked.
"I don't know that magic was strange. We could end up in the Enchanted Forest for all I know." Dorothy started to walk to the staircase.
"As long as I'm with you, anywhere is fine." Ruby declared. She watched as Dorothy made her way onto the staircase and upstairs, until Dorothy stopped abruptly.
"Wait, what about the … chomp chomp?"
"I can … wait until the next full moon. I spoke to Granny, she said if we don't do the claiming before then, my wolf will come out and do it herself."
"Well that's not far away, about a week. I'm sure this won't take that long, if not, we'll have to honeymoon in Oz."
"Honeymoon?" Ruby said with a squeaky voice, but Dorothy was already in the bedroom packing the essentials. Honeymoon, Ruby thought. Well, claiming Dorothy as my mate, technically that could stand as marriage.
"Do you want me to pack for you?!" Dorothy yelled from up the stairs, her tone of excitement was not lost to Ruby. Ruby smiled and ran up the stairs vigorously. 'It definitely stands as marriage.
