a/n: haha! Shortly, yeah right. What a liar I am... Was just reading this story over to get a basic sense for it again. I'll tell you the truth though, May not be continuing this after this chapter. Then again I may.

I plan on rewriting and revising this so that it is purely my own and I can publish it without being sued for copy right reasons. So it won't be a Ruby Gloom fanfiction anymore.

But, I still have to see how that will go, and wait until I'm done writing. So for now, I'll tie you off and leave you here.

just so you all know though, I am currently an active author. Things are just difficult since I'm doing all my writing from an iphone right now.

I am currently writing fanfiction for an anime called Kaleido Star. So if you wish to read any of my new works, you may. I also have many other fandoms I've been in and out of, so if you know of any of them, feel free as well.

That's it for this author's note. And just for you, I'll continue with a small chapter.

Alpha dropped her bag on the livingroom floor. She crossed her arms and stared at the group in front of her. There were quite a few people here, all of them different. She found the conjoined twins especially interesting... How exactly did one... Er, two... Live like that?

Ruby smiled and looked around at everybody, standing beside Alpha at the front of the group.

"Everyone, this is Alpha, the one we have been waiting for"

Alpha gave a short wave and watched as a young cyclopse bounced up and down exitedly, enthusiastically ranmbling on about how it's a good thing she's okay, and how she's so happy to finally meet her, and... What was that about a trapeze?

Ruby giggled, she seemed to find it amusing. Alpha only raised and eyebrow and took a step back, implying that she would like her space and bit more calm in the atmosphere.

Ruby got the hit and calmed the girl down, letting her sit before i troducing everyone. Alpha gave Ruby her full attention as she did so.

"Alpha, this is Iris" Iris gave a chipper 'hello!' And calmed back down as Ruby continued "Frank and Len" the conjoined twins gave a wave and the blue one said small 'yo, what's up?'

"Misery" Ruby continued onnce more "Edgar, Allen, and Poe... You've already met Skullboy... There's BooBoo over there, and you'll meet the other ghosts whenever they come by, which isn't often, but their names are Mr. White and Mr. White"

Alpha let out a soft snort, she always HAD found the ghost tendancy to use such corny names and give them to multiple ghosts rather amusing and confusing.

Ruby put a finger to her mouth in thought and shifted her wait to her hip "Now, who am I forgetting... Oh right!"

Ruby ran off to a corner and came back with a stuffed, could you call it an animal? And a black cat "this is Doom Kitty, and this is Mr. Buns!"

Alpha nodded in greeting towards the cat (however she felt no need to greet the stuffed animal... Ruby figured she'd come around in time)

"Umm. Excuse me, Ruby, but you are also forgetting about me" A small bat stated as he lightly tugged on Ruby's sock.

"Oh right! Silly me, how could I forget?... Alpha, this is Scaredy Bat"

Alpha turned sharply to face the little bat, her posture still and her eyes lowered. it was already intimidating, and Scaredy was shaking just from her presence. Then her lip lifted in a suppressed snarl. But she greeted the poor scared creature as kindly as she could.

"Hello... I am Alpha" her voice was deep and rumbling. It was suppossed to be a warning, considering bats usually had strong connections to vampires, and she was only taking precausions and letting him know she wasn't to me messed with... However... The last thing she was expecting was for him to faint.

A/N: Okay, sorry, but I'm not really into this fandom right now, so I'm cutting it there and working on my three other stories I have on the go... I know where this is going still though, so if enough people are still reading, perhaps when Im'm done with my other stories, I'll continue this.
