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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLtK615aAH
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTMa8KXmU3
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHf3ikiKSW
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszMdSKZgkG
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcxEexRWxS
Man:Well come on CRY!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA58igZCOJ
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2K0MqN9PWv
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPdTkAZKAL
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6FuOBlKgi
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO1iJDNPp5
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxxRnYyKNg
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBscEalIeP
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp9FoYDhel
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzmHo0N5y9
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxqvVlBrRH
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:
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV0J3w6HMc
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEkaUj6AM0
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrISbmd3wQ6
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Nm6Ot5xC
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…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUVKEctN6u
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iCNZEOHPZ
…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGDOvxZib0
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTv1YvVuPy
Woman:And you are?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9UE4npRz4
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkGMcJk89a
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgJjwN5fI7
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdEUb0nRkT
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8myz1KH2El
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrxwyWn7ZL
He was enraged…why?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXk5WWoDNh
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr58uVGGpg
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQCCM8fvqJ
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCADVBBAY3K
Huh?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XBTX7FK3O
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSYpkoPRL6
Stepmom:How dare you?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZIMd0Sbh4
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzw8c94JW7
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37iHvGOYCe
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVYFMeNeNv
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtY5ODx56M
Ruby:Morning…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC5Oz8OidQ
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM34ZKIFYoh
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqlVYA3pOY
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH47pZQrqMo
Ruby:FANG!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KF9C06fwG
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPkLXGXLwx
Stepmom:Try…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLKoc1qhvN
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNCFD0rawE
BOOM!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7ayFPpO25
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMAI0OuSLM
Fang:What was that?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2sfxBD7dH
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r9cOLP7m6
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrY3501jnO
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrlTyf9sGZ
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v8RB3uFZW
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3QdeDbgJV
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ359wLQaBR8
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2ihgdin2q
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JbWhYjUNF
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7b65J2cX0
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx8SgUHOcR
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.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Rfauegxr
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6gKDzM2Xe
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSn9vApFKx
Fang’s POV
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6SvVjS1Kp
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5zLRTvg7i
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOORgVC7xU
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGETxwIqQC
Fang:We’re leaving…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql7cHYZrxA
That was my only option left before I killed them.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTDoNyLJ6q
Ruby:What?
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Or7FzNHEO
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe82p5s1Os0
Fang:Pinpoint…
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKduMPoPty
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
312Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJoUWEXtti
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
