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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59kB03qDcA
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmk1XgvYQhc
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAVcf81Z5t
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhbinc4IhV
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyJhXmzHRl
Man:Well come on CRY!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf06dgWXkH
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKi9WnDDnAM
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEhriDBbp9
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4JOz1p8GI
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaqy6VvDjF
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nKV8zLAZq
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbGulJcI9N
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnJQlUUWqc
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIZ88Spz2S
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0Gq22QOPz
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:
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PViwTvsmC
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhi3lqoYYzc
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3M2C8M4B4
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ4vrLhWJ6
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…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmaXRcb8Kc
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZW8FyBtra
…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oyz1pB7XK
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBjXrfizW5
Woman:And you are?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP1aQEHLpc
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyufEGh3qqa
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AVbYOBn4B
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm1VYpJ3db
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMYT5bqPCQ
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchnQxqmMKz
He was enraged…why?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26nCUd4Axz
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t8WtgvN3W
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkzMzeo1og
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzEbmeBV2a
Huh?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0btLl8Q6Ab
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgPYA81iWZ
Stepmom:How dare you?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpnZYlSCTF
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDmEZfLARa
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVZ0UxPTBI
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhhUVoAp5N
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchZ2oAWrOu
Ruby:Morning…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXpzS6LZUV
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUkYfAohmX
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqc4nF72d9
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuvGyISwL0
Ruby:FANG!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdgD760KnC
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLvuhsNa5P
Stepmom:Try…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMAUPyWwNI
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kQCP8vlVP
BOOM!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKCrlx92B9
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9UcMIQKYf
Fang:What was that?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMKlo94I70
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpktpoA53iM
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xHMgEKcFO
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCZmJHXG3T
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ573zN9q9tW
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIup93uWicQ
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinXUKCX93L
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtsL5yThIn
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrulHghRXYx
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdOcKXp9GK
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3ceDyTdLl
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIsJOTb3CT
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZlmdZk65v
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJahaIsT1X
Fang’s POV
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Rvub1w2kG
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVMqK5nL7M
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnGNlmaK5R
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjxYaKYpwt
Fang:We’re leaving…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt1E0jP6o8
That was my only option left before I killed them.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pzABv4t4h
Ruby:What?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5f67BBIu6
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBB6qSAaOL
Fang:Pinpoint…
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey2WNkd7aR
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeR5wBA0Ij
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
