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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV2I9r3RLl
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib9E1pD0bZ
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMnscOZlPK
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H5MeuvYbW
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCyVlTWHK6
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqrgOqM2jg
Man:Well come on CRY!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOjzcxxNjJ
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAGCHJmBzF
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KXaR2zgY5
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyGUK3TYna
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSeW8gyuOk
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJTMAKN1r1
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJM23lYgkn
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvaJQ1zdSp
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TBYLMXTX8
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdIxvhRVkW
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:
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcg0xDpaQi
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFan3eUXGfC
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7M6jFg6wH
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvOx8h3HAe
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…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnTUGBsd2Q
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZxj7SLaZA
…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk6QQ25vNq
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PPjvqFiYJ
Woman:And you are?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8W1eecgSR
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpCXpN0Wcc
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXMjyolj0F
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd44gb0tgI
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVHW1Kjdwm
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXuxvf1nGr
He was enraged…why?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OdbvBx96I
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX3UeyeaLJ
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpqEzf3wa4
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP1J4xkjSM
Huh?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweuyA6h7bc
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5dVpIc9wx
Stepmom:How dare you?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAgo3gIFf6
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMesUhp6AC
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtJsAghqSO
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4ytEmahG6
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i51cuL50O
Ruby:Morning…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEYoWZ7zRz
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jYEOkWjIR
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYszRK8b1SU
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzU0kv4xNW
Ruby:FANG!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL8HB35ScQ
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxW41TyhTY
Stepmom:Try…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tCPsSQOFk
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK2ignp9V2
BOOM!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOAQztKpPT
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FPA2eU4MC
Fang:What was that?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPYn3nCOVh
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3xENS5kAL
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdcKJ4m6ZE
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6Gc9bVdDm
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVnKxu5z2E
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8RXtebiar
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5VlOhL5DN
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpyp3yWLk0
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3IEs8c9Jt
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VrO5v9AaR
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9lfyG1W2I
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.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsslhQgT86U
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPwXwfkm7s
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNjXXsnBER
Fang’s POV
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidD8x5JwcO
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs7u1kNOoN
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TgNjvOR5a
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIN0TGC1is
Fang:We’re leaving…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrkjipztiR
That was my only option left before I killed them.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYwLeC4SD8
Ruby:What?
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxipjFgiiQl
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraBFvQSYwd
Fang:Pinpoint…
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUrqmePcJk
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEgalCIpYT
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
