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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANApghSlFnQ7a
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAYRMXFDkg3m
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
315Please respect copyright.PENANA2K916r2L59
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
315Please respect copyright.PENANALMPp9mUUSn
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAmz27JwUjii
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAZiI1P39Mbn
Man:Well come on CRY!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwC0m1EXFgW
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAFUPVftcPVh
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
315Please respect copyright.PENANA7GkTFYhlZO
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
315Please respect copyright.PENANARc01iEKQ5C
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAnrwiHdq6J1
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAN5CKQMpk4S
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
315Please respect copyright.PENANA3k4vPEYK7S
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANArZx9ciIzdu
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkJExPpaQlA
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAous6Q9JMFY
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:
315Please respect copyright.PENANAsTWkMMgV3P
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAJa9ThGqDiz
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAAnrLGLyE2j
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA73RFT1mcK0
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…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAmiNiBXZHwr
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAbfjcY1Zraw
…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAdoEV7jeCpc
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6xG480qyWq
Woman:And you are?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAu2t4gzGMof
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAhbpQCYqnyZ
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAexVtyKvwz3
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
315Please respect copyright.PENANACgm74AKa99
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwIBSE2br3C
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAz0L9xAFfM1
He was enraged…why?
315Please respect copyright.PENANA2VONr1Cyhf
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAiX7hfWzabZ
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAibrbqAPfli
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxwjiaWVlwo
Huh?
315Please respect copyright.PENANA4RGSEmHFu1
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6jFrPoCXiB
Stepmom:How dare you?
315Please respect copyright.PENANASiA6kf08jA
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAFHoHBiapyd
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAHI6OX4C5jS
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAZlhg7LHj8U
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAsOixLUI2V4
Ruby:Morning…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAZpWbcVjVvi
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxrZXxYsd7X
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
315Please respect copyright.PENANA74AhH2Tan7
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAyDEkLt75Ma
Ruby:FANG!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAec6oDdN0op
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA4QhOLPRK6O
Stepmom:Try…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAVUlXjc99UF
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAVfeMEa4pbI
BOOM!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwROQ4421Q2
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAY3K7ZGwl9t
Fang:What was that?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaiIEAus1eM
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
315Please respect copyright.PENANA9GnXHrhKKf
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAoV80tDi3vg
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkuRzgPZEwM
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAEoDNMgeqau
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAO52y0En4TE
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
315Please respect copyright.PENANAjafL8aIyvG
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANANHGEWfn4Z2
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAOAPGIHxRnM
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
315Please respect copyright.PENANApZznyP8TU7
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAiUKleTnrg9
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.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAeeYAgiPPTv
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAppRf2McT9j
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
315Please respect copyright.PENANABSQOkLFZsK
Fang’s POV
315Please respect copyright.PENANAt33YoQXucY
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6FYRjoUwLI
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA1iCC5nESCz
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAlGHNouUfN0
Fang:We’re leaving…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAc6kZtFRvhG
That was my only option left before I killed them.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAeklnn53P8c
Ruby:What?
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaa16iGqBVb
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
315Please respect copyright.PENANAPhnutgo0ze
Fang:Pinpoint…
315Please respect copyright.PENANAg76fvV2ojz
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
315Please respect copyright.PENANA4SCBEtimXw
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
315Please respect copyright.PENANASye4PvE8K3
