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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VcH5Aor17
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzcXgKHVMS
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRDgOxEhh1
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4wwIMTjkh
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabsIdtCVVC
Man:Well come on CRY!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoilOUnvuV4
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBR7g5pmu9
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM1K4h0pHe
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YfHc9OFgd
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMvfwTk61M
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TPvVxRLDa
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB7GCppZds
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82nMuxMZ5L
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73JdTK9zKM
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt50BNfynJ
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:
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLV0ROCjygy
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GAdJL4HuH
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiOEVilah3
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcEL1nrxHD
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…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kMu7vmWaM
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxj0UCBWYB
…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrUgbvl7Go
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYnQnZomBP
Woman:And you are?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPhWlyekpO
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOpUlTzz2u
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBE8HWbDXhs
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1NHExEMeh
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXFJkGmSsY
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h3j5JVkE6
He was enraged…why?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNvn4pQX1l
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv0EiWVgMR
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP0u8HP0St
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FE19mDFDj
Huh?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWUKvGlAoa
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQrKb96sW5
Stepmom:How dare you?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnvFjal0z4
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8X4KAkTur
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPt1A7BMKG
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OFOZhmH7x
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfiQYyMyFP
Ruby:Morning…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBC9a27GMq
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjVZSbdOQl
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3uD7vpuZw
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqkj4muUSV
Ruby:FANG!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SwNUjZSX0
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPcOiCxSWC
Stepmom:Try…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1vcipfEBf
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2LfcJxquX
BOOM!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Fz2uepTaP
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBGLBovErv
Fang:What was that?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtpvMuh3yQ
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLfSghERAY
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEaUtrdbxi
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWgvFXCMsp
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9mIWEjCqd
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLTY2PvXjv
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ043LdJXl2P
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xZyEafUce
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXI3jMEAfc
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQS4BBGEyw
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbbWXDGPrk
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.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27qtY8eubv
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpLvrP3puU
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaD0Qg5ncE
Fang’s POV
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jso5eEAoE
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpF6AQQ32n
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFElYxAOBq
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ALU14l3NJ
Fang:We’re leaving…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTcG1oR55s
That was my only option left before I killed them.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydFQendkoW
Ruby:What?
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Oif7rHOKW
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfH1rq34XP
Fang:Pinpoint…
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACuCqHLuL4
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD03BayXFxU
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm5TbUqTMp
