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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIGvjiFdBT
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIOV2h87W2
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAX6Spx0rX
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBiSpcn2aH
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL0iSprH60
Man:Well come on CRY!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0KAsF3u30
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMDicAQB6K
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUl9jTdpJ1
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouwggAFDHG
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJNWc38z0r
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qu4LyauWr
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKt9jrIuQV
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAkMeE2VDT
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE2N4SL6JL
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMXPxcY7yy
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:
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbPChC8ceS
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSuc3XPW5h
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHK6Y7pBB1
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5b3Bxp9bhW
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…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiecrepMbH
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74HsA7aVpw
…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu82t5lzjt
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv00bCeZMXt
Woman:And you are?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1K6bAkPGy
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo2Ai9kt12
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE0z2SXs4W
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY5ViHZJOx
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDAy3GvQh7
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8AdGv39c1
He was enraged…why?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxruJPyj2Na
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0w6A3TUpg
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZRs6dECa2
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIZXerdzxu
Huh?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs50AWAJr96
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CLowGoGws
Stepmom:How dare you?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl7w4zpvXW
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKdl0KgFO5
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjCtxyl5HU
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHczvrCOxd
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1MPbXp6Jl
Ruby:Morning…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWCuAQeWGm
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ2rSRUrtR
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G7eJZYDYg
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24KE3k2BVK
Ruby:FANG!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMR1VDPRedc
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvOhFzbhVP
Stepmom:Try…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr9Ilu40Gs
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaRlkjdgQz
BOOM!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uvI2mcSBX
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6G5GwI7hl9
Fang:What was that?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7iXyFAwyy
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqnxJlKb4i
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKRn3QJmOz
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyCrGqpkO6
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDXBDbZRta
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UZr6o54WO
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieKpMdg23B
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnyACWDAdn
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5lQvLJMAx
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgjPDcbXRe
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuObNvwwpkD
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.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDXfRAsgTD
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKDtr47P89
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwTI4nM2sS
Fang’s POV
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTSmdBQt6x
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N1UdVoYRT
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWd8OLrRMJ
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dExq0WYkx
Fang:We’re leaving…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5JTPHSXYP
That was my only option left before I killed them.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9VLmvIYfw
Ruby:What?
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jWCTEOw8p
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpmpiDZCvg
Fang:Pinpoint…
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCnQBkYKFW
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jm4v9dqAH
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
200Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATGXvg3qoV
