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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNPcGsPNF2
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky0fRrLqdK
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdrcBwJcwo
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivVJZpz7FW
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSwC4RuCrN
Man:Well come on CRY!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQzHKXXft7
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jCT13ro5G
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vIaEH6Gwh
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw4piKkhCv
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeclop6CRdN
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfwFEbyskw
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9WwpYSI5w
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHEJG0qPEp
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxV58lKysP4
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JhV6jua92
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:
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPpIs7K801
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72cY7AXzug
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6hci0PQ3M
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIrqDmiuTE
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…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7SaxChxsC
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOkKGfdh4S
…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBVlLcCTTh
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64k1k3rlUk
Woman:And you are?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9p3BhGX7R
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljTBjnFBGu
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hBJMmZFVE
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡint7EKcGcq
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBcUnl9wli
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2znvr3LXm
He was enraged…why?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgazoyEgnBg
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn54nvvw3Pp
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NYTBeZyPd
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi62AWhBXXs
Huh?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5zQreKmAP
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR0Sxubjlk
Stepmom:How dare you?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbAH3kKm1p
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemQlbNVdBI
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn5pkQ64cm
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuqhinFFZA
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bvjBFbAO0
Ruby:Morning…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c4QkaGWgV
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnhjqA4qfK
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C2anGC2Ug
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUvwLvyAbJ
Ruby:FANG!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOINoddAlXX
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5hILRU7ZK
Stepmom:Try…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl2S18cycS
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaIe977tnZ
BOOM!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumEFp3lLyj
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMrSGitJCp
Fang:What was that?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEXlA4J7Sp
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrMMgVw6ad
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtpPJc9H7E
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxOjdIS8u2
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ScLA6mErd
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPm5tPSq52
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne4dzRdHsV
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HF13XeHqW
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwULOoQPfE
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfahDFzajJ
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFdEqKAiC6
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.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJSenoQkxw
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrqdrgvtAn
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FmfSXo0HY
Fang’s POV
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cpTPSSzrT
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8y8RubFJt
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCxytIfIEq
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYBDvR23W9
Fang:We’re leaving…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpPgyXpv17
That was my only option left before I killed them.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b9sVVAc4q
Ruby:What?
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet5HjvYwo8
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27lhUsbeAV
Fang:Pinpoint…
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTA8FsvXCP
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmCejMqI5e
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
