Emerald says that he wants to learn more about her past. He told her a lot about his, it’d be nice to know some of hers. Anything will do really. He asks how she got good at pickpocketing, or about some of the street foals she may have ran into. Or how she survived until now.
Ruby ponders this for a moment before saying, “Well, before I met you I helped some of my roommates with a robbery. Man, you should have SEEN what was in that box I got!”
Ruby dashes into a nearby alleyway, rounding a corner and resting near a doorway with big planks of wood holding it shut. She looks around to make sure that there is no one here, even though she knows that very few people come down this alleyway.
Lacking shops or really any non-boarded up doors there isn’t very much of a reason for anyone but bums to come down this alley. Ruby breathes hard, trying to catch her breath. She had been recruited by two of her roommates Rat and Sleepy to help them with a score. The place they had picked was uptown, near the castle and locked up tighter than a safe, except for a small opening above the front door that was used as a vent. The two stallions lifted her into it, and she had unlocked the door from the other side. They had done a pretty good job of ransacking the place, but they apparently were not careful enough.
The guard came by roughly five minutes into their smash and grab, and the three of them had just enough warning to break a window near the back of the home and flee. Luckily Ruby managed to get her hands on some sort of chest, wish now sat cradled between her two front hooves.
What does Ruby do?
