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.

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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZqUVDgjt6
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFrLey5J0a
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡae2P1iPl2J
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIgYHHmYyL
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ1mu8T7pa
Man:Well come on CRY!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ0ovX1ieX
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy2MXBS519
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gHR29LRAK
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vVuLTq5I6
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRirCH2iawK
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JqkeYLFok
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qqFnSkv61
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCW7ULDTHa
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2wYAu0MCb
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQtmuuJQlb
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:
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDTRr7FzQv
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd3VMop38S
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcRRBOWatN
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdwojsBQAF
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…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfFqGwXhmc
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxfnczzUo3
…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9t3Aqqx60
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWd5MFPnso
Woman:And you are?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVUGyIAig0
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv7sWkKWvh
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NlvcMQhUK
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlOYC4U0hc
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX42bHipM7t
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08SyZyMiK2
He was enraged…why?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCfMlnwL8O
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVNUBysbXP
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrWoAkznIZ
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zWBLcZmc8
Huh?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmZYnBQBXb
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXPvrtN9pz
Stepmom:How dare you?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1QIznbUZg
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCJ5TF8kWV
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvsJPzTwU2
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0tGSp92hX
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaChNWSKZKk
Ruby:Morning…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lYEVDcaMN
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MwDoZv1cG
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrpGiR9LAj
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6qrXO9NMJ
Ruby:FANG!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGpwLuudf8
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qMIXaNarq
Stepmom:Try…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk63Gwd2rm
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO8r8RE1mx
BOOM!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43NkbeHlEp
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0SAMBF4qx
Fang:What was that?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pOZyYxV8R
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczj0jc52O3
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlypkP77h0a
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm6XT09YeW
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUfOoqaTVz
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7HYPJZcl1
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJk0eN5oX91
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjzsv0SQH9
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhw90cKULs
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp9nNCuefc
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqgCBskOXa
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.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoLS2WfHE3
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgraS82voaV
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaVUtuhBkE
Fang’s POV
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2IsYSwT5Z
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXrqWZM4Km
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTJeJLvSVT
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqWOFV1Djo
Fang:We’re leaving…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FJSlWFfiw
That was my only option left before I killed them.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaffwoCKJP
Ruby:What?
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27dv0R8Mvy
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqmjSCCd3k
Fang:Pinpoint…
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJVsLWTRM4
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnXo8VPpho
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
