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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANArLi8nv0AxN
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8QbFFS2Jdm
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAUAf3NN4Nds
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAyZrMH649v4
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0mYrAtIyXG
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAMsx0IyPIUA
Man:Well come on CRY!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAetwipSe1St
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6zb36pjwCa
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAO5n1Qob1ob
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfYErKs7KxR
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAEPlz6erkcV
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvCxxEPdpv2
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
151Please respect copyright.PENANALc097dTlEq
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAQD8vwrUD1K
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAQSxYHSTzTT
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAr0aw68mn8q
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdpRUvV3nQB
No One’s POV:
151Please respect copyright.PENANAnVTpwFlXdf
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAylMFx0vTWY
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
151Please respect copyright.PENANATWwxQV8EsC
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
151Please respect copyright.PENANApzFw6ceJZM
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…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAjaeiT9Ztru
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
151Please respect copyright.PENANARO8EzFWDP1
…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAD9QEl7d6wq
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAp3deU6MKeU
Woman:And you are?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAD5SdvPCmQ2
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAWK870iWCoI
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXI57UNvmRr
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
151Please respect copyright.PENANApziGhUSCuJ
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAR7JdFzZ4Nd
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAtjYm0XufFa
He was enraged…why?
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4aaCDmgf6q
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
151Please respect copyright.PENANALvk466nbZk
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6VT37Q8NEZ
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwneUTiBQ6o
Huh?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAkkrSrSsQbh
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9RkMKY3B0y
Stepmom:How dare you?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAknvNRdevyY
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA7NMOeKAjYe
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAKRKqLuvBXx
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
151Please respect copyright.PENANATgdux3lN8Z
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmLJtNcQvDG
Ruby:Morning…
151Please respect copyright.PENANA5H9W8zpVsw
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
151Please respect copyright.PENANA2gq0LYXhH7
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4FIUoRQ4Ey
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANATzYwuosU6b
Ruby:FANG!
151Please respect copyright.PENANALFVfAVMNrq
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
151Please respect copyright.PENANARPNPYg6kPy
Stepmom:Try…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbgjLqANEkF
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA41uuyYuDUS
BOOM!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAI4gYUiouoJ
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0Luuw96y5p
Fang:What was that?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAddVN1qxGZJ
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvcVEw6KMxc
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0Z0yArEk4C
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdB93QYelU7
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAWbCe3d7YGT
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6RyS15SAuz
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdNtqWjHTJ1
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0k3Gffjl8m
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYBGFCQ36nv
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAG65h56raOJ
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
151Please respect copyright.PENANACONXTCuVoC
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.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAExHirk8F9d
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYaU3KJ2jnG
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAeg4HDrv66N
Fang’s POV
151Please respect copyright.PENANAydKc9u7LfI
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAukwufytQqw
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsW31GcALPc
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA60LWXbLiKo
Fang:We’re leaving…
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9Y0DRm2O1q
That was my only option left before I killed them.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2iknoS2lj
Ruby:What?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAps1FYjzV3h
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdyTMFKy8Pu
Fang:Pinpoint…
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYAAJBoD5p9
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAxuxqHdOaZb
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4EmJ8ypeyc
