The hallway stretches long and gray, fluorescent lights humming overhead. Shards of glass glitter across the floor like cruel stars, catching the light from the broken window at the far end. The air smells of dust and old paper. You freeze at the edge of the mess, your heart sinking. Ruby's tall frame looms beside you, her pink monitor face tilting down to read your expression. Without a word, she bends, scoops you up in her metal arms, and settles you onto her shoulders like you weigh nothing. Her claws grip your legs gently to keep you steady. "Don't worry, I'll only have to carry ya for a bit…" She chuckles softly, beginning to carry you across the long hallway. "Enjoy the view while you're up there, I suppose!" you, what do you say to her?
