Waz up?

My friends here you go this is Ruby at the palace!

Sorry it is long but you know what can you do? LOL

Ruby's POv:

I've never liked goodbyes. In fact I don't understand why good is in the phrase.

So when it is time to say goodbye, it takes everything I had not to beg the car driver to say I died or something.

Kaylee was already in a airplane on the way to the palace. I had stalled packing and would probably be the last person to the palace. I packed some normal clothes and a work out suit (you never know) but I couldn't think of anything else so I left the house. My family was waiting outside I walked up to Lennie first.

I could tell she was trying not to cry. When we started hugging she broke down.

"Don't leave me!" She cried into my stomach.

"I don't think they will let me stay." I admitted. Lennie started to whimper and I put my face down so it was level with hers.

"Don't worry about me, Lennie, listen to Bracken and stay safe."

"You didn't pack a jacket." She whispers worried.

"It's fine," I reassured her,"I won't get cold."

Not listening to me she takes off her own jacket and hands it to me saying "Stay warm."

I take the jacket and walk over to Bracken who is crying softly. I run over to him and through my arms around him, pulling him into a hug. All he says is - "I love you."

John my only living older sibling, he isn't crying but he looks like he is about to . We hug and he whispers "Ruby…. Please survive this, I couldn't take it if…. Not again after…" I nod and walk over to my dad who is sobbing in a really embarrassing way that makes me want to console him.

"Oh baby, my sweet little baby."

"Dad I'm not your baby anymore."

"You'll always be my baby Ruby."

I roll my eyes but I am crying so it kind of defeats the purpose.

Finally my mom who is grinning and crying at the same time which looks really weird it makes me want to smile and cry with her. When we hug she grabs my hand and places a piece of paper in it. I look at her in confusion she just winks and says "Open it when you get on the plane." Then she hugs me again and I'm being brought to a car.

On the plane i'm the first person there so I take a seat in the middle and open the note.

Coco is under the plane with your suitcase-when the plane lands find a way to get down there and hide him. XOXO: your mom ;)

I stare at the note with my mouth open. Coco is down under the plane? Shit. How was I supposed to get him? I groan into my hands.

A couple minutes later a flight attendant comes and says the others have come from a different plane into this one so I stand up and walk over to meet them shoving the note in my pocket.

There's four of them, two are smiling the others are staring at me. I walk over and hold out my hand to a girl dressed in a pink dress and high heels that look like they're trying to make the girl look taller than she really is.

"Bianca Rivera right?" I ask the girl.

"Yes!" She says excited, "It's such a pleasure, your Ruby Summers!" I nod and turn my attention to the girl on her left. She is wearing a tight dress and a professional smile.

"The names Jade Caldwell," She says holding out out her hand, and her smile, I realise now that I'm closer, is over eager. I gulp and turn my head and hold out my hand to the girl next to her.

"My name is Ruby nice to meet you." I say, she stares at my outstretched hand and turns her head to the side like she is to cool to look at it. "Pleasure." She says in a tone that makes it sound like she isn't really pleased. Then she sits down and Jade sits across from her.

I turn to the last one putting out my hand hoping she won't just ignore it.

"I'm Reyna Hart it is a honor to meet you." she says shaking my hand. I smile easily (thank God) she gestures for us to sit down. And me, Bianca, and Reyna sit together for the rest of the flight.

When the plane lands I get up and Bianca and Reyna look up at me.

"Where are you going?" Reyna asks.

"Umm the bathroom," I answer then quickly walk down to the underneath level of the plane.

It takes me a couple of minutes but I find Coco underneath some random blankets. When he sees me he starts to bark excitedly.

"Shhhhh. Coco no, down boy." He sits obediently.

"Oh boy," I mutter,"It's so good to see you."

I pat him on the head and he makes a soft whining noise into my hand. I look at the suitcase that was also under the blankets and open it up.

Laying on top of my work clothes are different types of weapons - SubMachine gun, Hand gun, Revolver Cannon, Service Pistol etc. With a couple of daggers and throwing knifes.

There is a note from my mom on the top that just says "Surprise!" I just stare at the pile of weapons. When the shock is over I sit up and wait to make sure everyone from upstairs is gone. Then I turn to a opening in the plane that could take me outside. I grip the handle and yank up. It moves about a foot up. I look at Coco and he goes underneath. I close my suitcase and shove it under as well. Then I lay down on my stomach and slide under. I almost get my whole body out but my foot gets caught on something and the thing crashes down on my foot. I suck in my breath "Owe." I take a deep breath and yank my foot out. I look down at my leg it is bleeding slightly on my shin and there is a slight cut. I sneak over to the palace, covering the cut with my dress.

I find a closet on the fourth floor and set the weapons inside on the ground, then I look at Coco and usher him in. He looks at me like "Dude! Why me too?"

"Sorry buddy." I answer and I close the door. I wandered around for a couple minutes when a maid finds me and hurries me to where they are doing the selections makeovers.

A lady sets me in a chair "Ok," she says, "how much makeup do you want?"

I feel like answering with - two cups of make up please.- instead I say "As much as you think is necessary." She thinks this is a decent answer because she makes a soft satisfied noise. When she's done with my makeup she takes out lavender perfume.

"The prince says he loves lavender."

I shake my head, "If you were a prince and you wanted to know which selected members do everything he says you might tell them that you liked a certain perform." I point out. "Besides," I add, "I'm allergic to lavender anyway."

She huffs and crosses her arms, "Well then what do you suggest?"

"How about cinnamon?"

She flicks her tongue in annoyance and grabs another bottle.

When I get back to my room there are three maids waiting excitedly.

"I'm Meg," one said happily, she looked really young.

"How old are you?"

"Thirteen!" She was grinning like crazy.

How does someone so young end up in the palace? I think to myself.

The others introduce themselves as Emma and Kate.

Meg will make my dresses, they tell me, Emma will do my makeup and get me ready, and Kate will clean my room and help with anything else I might need.

After about ten minutes I convince them I don't need anyone here while I sleep. Then I set off to find Coco. Soon I get tired of walking with a bleeding foot. So I rip off a part of my dress and tie it around the cut so it can soak up the blood. Then I start running as fast as I can down the hall while trying to avoid guards. Soon I'm running so fast I can't see where i'm going and I accidently run into a guard.

Oops I put my hand over my head and sit up. He is still lying on the floor when I look down at him so I offer him my hand.

"Oh my god sir, I'm so sorry. Are you alright?" I lift him off of the ground and he laughs lightly

"I'm fine it's ok I didn't see you either." I look up into his face and gasp slightly

"Prince Warren….."

Ok ok guys this is my first ever cliffhanger!
