Umbra laughed as he went to walk over to Blitz. "You know, to blush you have to have bloodflow to your face." He approached Blitz, and gave him a wave. "They went to the Abandoned Warehouse. The one Minerva use to live at with Erica's father. Take these with you." He pushed a lump of shadow towards him, basically throwing it into his arms. "Don't worry, it's almost weightless."

Ruby choked on a laugh at Umbra's comment. "Dirty dirty boys you are."

Blitz allowed the shadow to hit his chest then fall to the ground. "I don't know what the hell your talking about with this warehouse, and you should know I don't do favors unless asked properly." He said simply to Umbra. "Hello Ruby. How've you been?" He asked, completely ignoring the other person.

Ruby St.Claire She heard her name distinctly and felt a chill of recognition. She squinted at the figure across the street, trying to make him out. She stepped forward cautiously, "hello?" *It was Ruby! The awareness burned through his brain, as he struggled to rise* " Ruby...help..."

Ruby's mouth gaped, as she heard clearly both her name and a plea for help. "Blitz, watch my back, 'kay?" She asked as a the thought that it might be a trap ran through her mind. She headed across the street to the figure struggling to get up.
"Quite wigglin' darlin' and relax, it'll be just fine." She put her arm around him and leaned him against a street post, so she could get a better look at his face, and his wounds if he had any.

He looked up at her and smiled through his dirty, matted, yellow beard. " You're here...you're real..."

Ruby shook her head with a chuckle, "Sure am, darlin', you could pinch me and make sure about it too.....but I wouldn't advise it, I ain't been as friendly as I used to be."
She looked at his face closer, but the dirt and the beard kept her from seeing anything recognizable. His quiet mutterings prevented her from placing his voice either.
She glanced back at Blitz "You have anything to help clean him up, sparky? I'm afraid I don't have as much as a drop of water on hand. I left my old place in a bit of a rush, you see."

His eyes follow hers, and he sees... " B-blitz. You're with Blitz. I should've known." He starts to turn away, and falls again. Bits of silver and gold show through tears in his clothing.

Blitz reached in his bag and cracked open a bottle of clear liquid and poured a bit on the mystery man. "oh s**t" wrong clear liquid He thought to himself as he immediately capped the bottle and tossed it back in his bag while taking a jump back to avoid any bad reaction to the alcohol.

"Now hold on here," Ruby grabbed hold of his collar and pulled him back up before he could try running off again. Her nose wrinkled a bit at the smell of the alcohol, and she tried not to let any of it get on her hands, she'd gotten tipsy before just by soaking her feet in rum, which was supposed to be a cure for shuffle feet, according to her third brother.
"I dunno what the hell yer talkin' about. Now hold yerself still while I get a good look at you and jog my memories." She turned him around and for the first time caught a look at the blue eyes, the glimpses of silver and gold confirming her suspicions. "Well I'll be damned. Bobby Bradock. She stood up and looked back down at him. "I'm not gonna say I'm happy with you, runnin' off like you did, with not leavin so much as a word of goodbye. NOw look at you, just lettin' yourself rot to waste."
Ruby was a bit tight lipped as she pulled him up to standing, letting him lean on her if needed, which succeeded in making her tough look become more gentle than she had intended.

"Runnin's what I do..." he said, and collapsed into her arms.

"And I'm always the one left behind, after all the folks have run away." She mumbled softly under her breath as she looked down at Bobby's collapsed form.
She tried to move him, but Ruby was on the short side of average, and could barely drag him a foot. She glanced back at Blitz with a look pleading for help.

Ruby glanced down with a small groan. "I was gonna go anti-hero and all that too...screwin' my badgirl reputation all up, Bobby. Hey Blitz, happen to have any soap or basic hygiene stuff, so I can clean this fella up?"
