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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm9yIHlaCh
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBJiYNmCOB
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SyReYsRbQ
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM0ltL7JvQ
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OO6FQuWPZ
Man:Well come on CRY!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQdy5QcBjU
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXI6oZc7AQ
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuoVZEhEiw
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMt7vUjM38
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SeDJbW57S
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk2bewmEQt
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lXdAYV3lJ
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTabxrJVhR
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvbbN47Vde
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX7Nm6lL9f
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:
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8JDQ8bsvJ
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJITW5mrCW7
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N2yQ4IKSO
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWFGkxtscY
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…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UxQH6Y7Ia
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNArg8t1lM
…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2cI9jtZ1A
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkR9itVzNi
Woman:And you are?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnjm7pJvP8
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ6KMpMiva
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ojJamrthg
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uZpn765Er
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvUmIrOxtg
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO17zZGkf2
He was enraged…why?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3ipvHwK42
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwvW8KSM6e
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUlOHry1k2
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPBpFGphrC
Huh?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNK6ENjEeM0
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyonXEkD8IX
Stepmom:How dare you?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFOxOCXW10
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GbCC1n6t4
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5PVKL7Z1w
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yzBAIN5Ph
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ11yIkSA2B
Ruby:Morning…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjlYzNRrCy
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHMMy82g12
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitx5HnC3Eh
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1vgGGap4L
Ruby:FANG!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7peMO0Hqh
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNig06XZDh
Stepmom:Try…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ9r4tFi5U
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJlPt3mNcV
BOOM!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG21sE5YYwu
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFpwxuf1AH
Fang:What was that?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ3ntMKqRu
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C6ItKPraM
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7FIV5qROX
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddY2IGpL8C
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuR8cJqL8Q
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c0F2Ty5d1
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpOxW2VESF
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rcKjdpvQX
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh1ldeAQvD
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Gg3lUnLsr
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEyz42ylax
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.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdM2H3jg4P
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKbKD635PW
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9GZXOpUOd
Fang’s POV
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32EdIgM9OW
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxL7iB0KzB
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZXDNop9Yf
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Ez3oiE3f
Fang:We’re leaving…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHNvfDX5ha
That was my only option left before I killed them.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoZrgk9Xym
Ruby:What?
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtCkJWrBxp
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjDVQaU78J
Fang:Pinpoint…
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF06ZQTPY0
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDghb3HVJy
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
