I had a really weird dream that night. I was in the middle of nowhere with a girl with long, dark hair and a red cape. I couldn't see her face but somehow she seemed familiar. I followed her out to the chicken house, and, as soon as I stepped in the door, I knew we weren't alone. You see I get this weird feeling in my gut when someone else is nearby. I scanned the room and found the intruder.
"Hey, you!" I yelled, but no one heard me. It was just a dream, but it felt so real. The girl in the cape seemed to realize that someone else was there, as well.
"Hello?" she said. Just then, a girl with a white cape and black hair came out of hiding. I saw her face very clearly and I almost fainted. Can you even faint in a dream? I don't know, but I recognized her as Mary Margaret Blanchard.
"I'm sorry. I can go," she said. I stood there for a moment hoping that Mary Margaret had a twin.
"Are you stealing our eggs?" The girl in the cape asked.
"No!" Mary Margaret's twin replied. She looked down at the two eggs in her hands and stretched her arms so cape girl could take them. "Not a lot." She corrected. She turned around and started to leave.
"Hey! Hey! It's …It's alright," cape girl said
"Thank you. It was just that…um…last night there was something out there. It was howling, and…I heard it… and it was so cold so…
"Hey. Come on. Come with me." She turned around slightly and I almost saw her face but she quickly turned back around. "Everyone calls me Red."
"I'm Sn- Frosty. Mary Margaret's twin said.
"Frosty? Really?" Red asked.
"No, it's just that someone is looking for me so….."
"You don't know or trust me yet." Red finished. Frosty gave red a face that said 'How did you know that?' "Hey I get it I just need something to call you."
"Margaret. Oh no um… Mary." I knew she was Mary Margaret's twin!
"Well then Mary, come on." Red turned around and I finally saw her face. I woke up with a start.
"Ruby!" I yelled. I looked around and noticed I was in the exact same spot I fell asleep. I heaved a sigh of relief. It was still kind of dark so either I slept the whole day or the sun was still rising. Assuming it was still rising I got up and headed on my way.
To be ninety-nine percent honest with you, I didn't really know where that was. I started to rethink the whole running away thing so I turned around to see if they had given up looking for me. I wasn't that far and I'm sure no one really cared that I ran away.
I walked into town and I knew someone was there. I have this weird feeling every time someone is nearby. I would have run away but I was curious who was out there. A yellow car was wrecked over by the leaving Storybrooke sign. Well, where it used to be anyway. The car had taken it out pretty good. I ran over to see if the driver was ok.
There was a woman with long, blond hair and a red, leather jacket unconscious in the driver seat. I tried to wake her up but it was no use. I ran as fast as I could to get help. I reached the sheriff's station in time to get the sheriff.
"Hannah?" He asked with confusion.
"Graham, you have to help! There was a car crash at the edge of town!" He stood up instantly.
"Come on!" he said. We raced through town to the wreck and found the woman lying there in the midst of it all. "Here help me get her out." Graham said. After we got her in the car we headed back to town. "I can't believe you came back. I thought for sure you'd die in one night."
"Is that why you stopped looking for me?" I asked. He Glanced at me then back at the road.
"I didn't stop looking for you I just-"
"Gave up." I finished.
"No it was more like… well… you know like…"
"Don't try. I get it." We rode silently until we reached the prison. He put the woman in a cell and locked her up.
"Whoa whoa whoa!" I said in shock. "why are you locking her up?" He stopped what he was doing and looked at me.
"She's a drunk. That's why she crashed. Now come on. Let's get you home."
