The air smells like death, like the decaying meat the building once housed and Ruby has to fight down the impulse to heave up the entire plateful of fries she'd been enjoying right before she'd received the call to come out to this decrypt old slaughterhouse.
Her best friend, her only friend lay dead at her feet, blood mottled golden hair fanned out around her like a halo, one last massive screw you from her demon brethren to the Winchesters and herself.
Haley James had been the main reason she fought as hard as she did, the one human Ruby had been glad to go to battle for and sometimes the only living thing she even gave a damn about.
She'd been a mass of contradictions, soft yet tough, sarcastic yet earnest, ethereal and earthly all at the same time and Ruby had been drawn to her like no other.
Sam had loved her, had seen in her his path to happiness and light and even Dean with all his macho machismo had flat out adored every breath she took but neither of them could possibly hope to comprehend the depth of Ruby's own feelings for the girl, whatever was left of her battered demon soul had recognized the soul in Haley for that of an equal, had seen her as a partner or a sister and now she'd been ripped, ripped away from her viciously.
Hell had just declared war and she would make Lucifer himself pay.
