Fang found a log house within the wide range of trees Ruby’s energy signal could be found inside along with several others.

Fang slowly approached the window nearest to where Ruby was. It was a kitchen. Ruby sat on her knees as a tall man. Perhaps her father yelled so loud the glass couldn’t muffle out his harsh words.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPYNHoJnKf
Man:You weak, pathetic, crybaby brat why did you remove the collar you MISTAKE…
Upon saying a mistake he kicked Ruby in the side of the head the sound ricocheting all throughout the house. Ruby layed there unmoving as he kicked her in the side, tearing a scream from her.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE46nEhV9z
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngbpLNnPTQ
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj6w7nExAf
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M3FRnGkKD
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhw0sm5vKd
Man:Well come on CRY!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqxUD88MKw
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbzyVslEgB
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBynwrwGTBF
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dZz7oH0RW
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhTsl6Zyof
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVdzJuwbll
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1Ic57G7gU
Fang growled through gritted teeth as he watched Ruby disappear deeper into the house. With a sigh he leapt onto the roof Ruby’s energy signal was moving upwards till she was almost to the roof it stopped one level below.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9PKzeVfOe
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8mIrNF70a
Ruby Pov:
I came home just to get beaten by my ‘Father’ and sent to my room without any form of food. I don’t get it, I didn't cry cause usually that would mean I'd gotten beaten even worse but now that I didn’t cry he hit me with even greater force than ever.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1zDvRLppS
What was I supposed to do, laugh? Images of Fang flashed through my mind. He was so nice, the warmth of his kindness still lingered within my pale flesh. Why did I leave…cause I didn’t wanna drag him into my problems but he was so nice and what if he could’ve helped.
I reached the attic, it was completely empty there, nothing but the splintering floor and the wall without a window, just a large rectangular hole. A small gust of wind blew into the vacant room hitting my bare skin, with a shiver I slowly moved to lay underneath the window. My body felt heavy once I laid down but the repetitive stings within my body forbad me from going to sleep for quite some time but I finally drifted off to sleep.

No One’s POV:
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0EoPgvhrI
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmycNLTrvw
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTyG4rIUws
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhiT2gZDZc
He silently moved across the splittering floor as he approached the lightly sleeping Ruby. Kneeling beside her he tried to raise her head without waking her. She didn’t awaken…Fang carefully placed her head onto his knee. She didn’t seem to be hurt that badly but…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAHWDQMQZp
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX8eUjHESg
…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd97gdMQiJ2
Sunlight entered the windowless wall, Fang was the first to awaken as the sound of movement alerted him. A moment later a woman with auburn colored hair and green eyes entered the room, in her hand another shock collar. Their eyes locked.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTjdNSBDBB
Woman:And you are?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ScWAXKuYA
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFyaUHbGaq
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWTwX65S8u
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BVqucWPi2
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUDOekoMER
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHVN9bvnAA
He was enraged…why?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjCruLZAnu
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7ZYcu13M1
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZjnxWoSr6
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwN5JmEMbs
Huh?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXNUJ7jSTg
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoClGQdjpim
Stepmom:How dare you?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFInnVXc6N
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZTiD0Veud
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCP0ge4HxS
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY4LloFjol
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvvkuI5lw2
Ruby:Morning…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FS4NSTaNX
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHqxGbaYWg
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEnMlDUkHw
I was kinda worried he would attack her but what happened next scared me even worse…His entire body began admitting a cyan colored aura that caused his hair and eyes to glow.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA1C4urqny
Ruby:FANG!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNL26TIYmh
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIbOQy0ede
Stepmom:Try…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GrmPq2w5s
It was so fast I didn’t see him move. A slash-like hole appeared behind my stepmom allowing for more morning air to enter the attic.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsgYe44YOO
BOOM!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbeBVQWfOO
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf4JJg89Lf
Fang:What was that?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgKwKBSCkF
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7NCpGNLFA
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP0g8byQr1
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFFzFv4LZX
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1cZ2Lk5cn
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7T9FPQ7Dy
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM49lECT35i
I bit my lower lip as I could the sounds of footsteps rush up the stairs. Within an instance my father was here rage easily visible on his face.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurlWvTPSjQ
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfkPunk214
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj33tZhGiPT
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCyjvSOO5Z
Fang must’ve caught wind of this cause he held me tight to his chest with a look of pure anger that made my father submit.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxnh89Yafr
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4UirBEaW1
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BckHTQOep
Fang’s POV
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX1rXXMpTz
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2s7ajpcuF
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQKJcVTXRf
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa8Y5xeULg
Fang:We’re leaving…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtVIBQ6QLl
That was my only option left before I killed them.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XDuKLvboF
Ruby:What?
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1fplXtWlp
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRnetULKVh
Fang:Pinpoint…
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfajrgnjwpx
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNajDxBDY65
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
242Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1hCLg84tE
