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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vvY4yuUFc
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcAq2hz6f0
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1ENnxNxka
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ59vTKgmw
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMInTboZt7n
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky8voaR2e2
Man:Well come on CRY!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge8BjI9xgq
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxuJiltDzy
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxNt8qsnoI
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZQQSEcOI3
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBygq67GJDE
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhVvhpKJJt
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvWl0ZIMR2
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Moi35u4G1
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxaeH4bHOa
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsMV2xs7dB
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:
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJQBSAmlQt
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTseluRoar
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8nEVyRhHO
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2kAdF4Pvf
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…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOXjqlJ3TP
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kEYuUsYvC
…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagBvmxCtUI
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw2VczVNCM
Woman:And you are?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvP9zsrcAU
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61qjQ5JzeN
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1d2Ze64Aa
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDtmiCNlsX
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxro7ywUl5s
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxJAJRXVUf
He was enraged…why?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26aK3csGcv
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UdrXIP5HQ
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDInWyVb44E
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9dTdZgHNN
Huh?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNSlPUcHGn
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOq0TaxVYTj
Stepmom:How dare you?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN5l0nJlry
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZugfUrs7CI
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsjJeetNkr
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFdrol0RiK
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0yrj0mUvZ
Ruby:Morning…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIzjfPe6VS
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9OnhGWeLc
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ5Yy7Rwi8
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpDwwt8RH8
Ruby:FANG!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmlX4diAcv
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBm04GozaU
Stepmom:Try…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8DBH3aGjb
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BHen4UN1e
BOOM!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaqGVEfMlc
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTjQ7pQwkA
Fang:What was that?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF79z02R8qP
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwREFQ9xYVB
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADHq98LMSP
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqDvgtS6mB
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQNzbGjtTO
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO23Zt9Z9a
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8NshV2js7
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47OCIqDYTB
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDyTxqDgHq
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJNHjsCStp
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVb3BQhrSn
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.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJioFxg3ye
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IObE6dvQw
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qPGIJiLmF
Fang’s POV
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcpOPEqLSL
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc49Df4H56C
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18NXaiB7Gc
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2xXbpeE4z
Fang:We’re leaving…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOOpMWLllZ
That was my only option left before I killed them.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGQ96dvT5a
Ruby:What?
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKivxXpqPV6
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J0P8TguNR
Fang:Pinpoint…
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBFzXfNruY
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC59PYGgjr
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOqXCsMWw3
