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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50e2Mai6Qi
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0nxCVTmvf
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp18o4LJZOb
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohOSYR1OOB
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QdngWeMIW
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhudiQH25YE
Man:Well come on CRY!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kB0Fj4lyE
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpLjuzUYru
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBgM0BDOrc
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe8qLoT311
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pXYLU1rFW
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6HhwOdQAQ
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJywHFP7TiU
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxQVOmMvok
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj1hUH3BEF
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS17dFDblH
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:
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUSjkpHbBU
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKMTslbqIJ
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99Zl2EsovJ
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedILJpWBla
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…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVbhzrlQbc
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8OBnzQzlF
…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnFH08sy08
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGUv7wNeIC
Woman:And you are?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E5V1mG6PU
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5WFt7039L
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbBL2kWvMC
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwcXf5vJ30
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDxc7Pwuk5
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWRtTVBhmV
He was enraged…why?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6gujt2neo
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RzdGSIuMK
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6TpfHvGiy
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2Jn2v2kkR
Huh?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZsZC4hfNo
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFF3vDug62
Stepmom:How dare you?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7U94rGikS
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSmJcFBr3T
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6uH55mcEz
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MZMuVDfQe
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe94NiSGdwX
Ruby:Morning…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqjVCCxFqc
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQCfS1qn3f
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyTtzZnquf
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsWxUm3WyD
Ruby:FANG!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pKH9CINgG
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD7BwbXSfR
Stepmom:Try…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IxNjlctVP
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI1hmLa56U
BOOM!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SalSSQrMQ
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM2NS4TP2B
Fang:What was that?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNvZZ2EuWx
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIf9Jdx1LI
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFDS0GY78n
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMo3BBjmuE
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Y8t8XLJUz
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CONW2R6Kv
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo0t8Sjg21
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71NZ8nFLC0
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE741NJLJPt
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtizXnXUBT
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGWWpH1Au3
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.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvytJC2ZgQG
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gdNySEeVo
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC59Swh6pTO
Fang’s POV
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoetimj3PI
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQbNia8SLv
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R5W0JmUjE
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2bvlzbiI4
Fang:We’re leaving…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWimiYpp9Pl
That was my only option left before I killed them.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnNyRtNNDR
Ruby:What?
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua9zhmhK96
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqOWu5TMqS
Fang:Pinpoint…
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02msoZ3xK3
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
326Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbJbDGlQvd
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
