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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r16DC7ptr
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0lx26XOUp
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cqaiqKo4C
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY5ZC7thIF
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTN3kVGSZq
Man:Well come on CRY!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOqhgHyrs7
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1VO6cwur0
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3ToGEzUj6
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYgVUqk6Vl
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9Rbl1jW8l
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCwkLEAPkW
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyXPzvLgPt
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSM5BGuT0k
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnZbUSmjDN
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRDcdKC8sL
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:
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxUibVD191
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7WcY3CzcX
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pHxO2bXOn
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJttH1MInGy
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…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBYqVjA2FX
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2rD1x09Vr
…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMKu0q8RgT
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8miRxJ0Pr
Woman:And you are?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwx56fawPH
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FJUuljXPN
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0tISR87HJ
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUE1ct46bg
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7ISmbim6k
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE248ZyeVy
He was enraged…why?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ549eWZe6tg
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlKrCoLaug
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3zvnsnJmW
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡervfxuBOAO
Huh?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ywsfKKWf2
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9Hv7zRttn
Stepmom:How dare you?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvkxdKHBaj
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz73tPPAla
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaLg2TdNKu
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPEtuiYyqQ
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQrK5LotLv
Ruby:Morning…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV7Nc5yXhM
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsj1NakUir
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYzkOKjhFG
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1KWiR4DBV
Ruby:FANG!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXockIo8VFf
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx1a4cRvZ0
Stepmom:Try…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRALcMdk56F
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47k4qxSAd6
BOOM!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRAoAk84TA
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyJSojEqcC
Fang:What was that?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8BBSIrUDb
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcPF538dcb
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMs0UX8ERY
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxVl9SRWF1
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvMjcIWz4B
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqP2nryEfS
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSgACvFXXT
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3fMHr8cFQ
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBDE8iK532
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfoBUIuUPp
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsE6FCmE4j
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOxeVIUpkd
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkIMLjGJYi
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyRjyBrC0B
Fang’s POV
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hdDSsbNiY
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kr1XjkF2G
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLgCgVZE6x
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGQOfENdF6
Fang:We’re leaving…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb5IOVMJfY
That was my only option left before I killed them.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupNe2NhLMY
Ruby:What?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWY9PaOEDdR
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkfnh8fxZe
Fang:Pinpoint…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlURawtMjH
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQaMOfx2VZ
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
