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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAFxocfx9auE
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAZiaU6IkkjP
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAVujX2X98Gw
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAinMN6FROUq
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
141Please respect copyright.PENANABGbtyPKA7g
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAKdxYjadwhq
Man:Well come on CRY!
141Please respect copyright.PENANA5wq9H96Mc9
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAHXNtbyVJj7
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
141Please respect copyright.PENANA31SYyILw1W
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAx9zH02opez
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
141Please respect copyright.PENANASR35kGMzDs
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAE2PtChmN8Z
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
141Please respect copyright.PENANA0rmH2rbU2u
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAGwIVcPM4xx
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAHphOl0IcTu
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANA8QMOf9o0dG
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:
141Please respect copyright.PENANAkIlPrdOq5j
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAfAXO4Bmcvf
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3Mr9lIr8Ai
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAv3hzHR7Boi
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…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAcsRPeTG5N0
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAysajGxfUpm
…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAyTyvDqy172
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAFFVNePj1lS
Woman:And you are?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAxOEBUOiPwN
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
141Please respect copyright.PENANALwp2afoHq2
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7cT3376Wa
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAFsytHklfDH
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAd3qDcPWMlQ
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAb55qKQRw58
He was enraged…why?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAwGqqzWlRRo
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAsw9wAnsvYi
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAU33mpnw21Q
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAiCAZ3uPO3z
Huh?
141Please respect copyright.PENANARrHoL8JQYU
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAHuJfFZ9Op3
Stepmom:How dare you?
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7h4Vav2TR5
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
141Please respect copyright.PENANALbUadlxyi0
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7LfXgjOvqG
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAvLAoasZF61
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAdv2ytfScch
Ruby:Morning…
141Please respect copyright.PENANALsDxfG9Dzb
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5IPenD1B6
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAKyhuovfwVf
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANATV358QD6RZ
Ruby:FANG!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAd0l0cMdRME
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
141Please respect copyright.PENANA0wrlRFRe6U
Stepmom:Try…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAXmdSrR6f20
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAc3UE0aqaKm
BOOM!
141Please respect copyright.PENANA4HdEbOf0Bi
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAuSs8EwhbBi
Fang:What was that?
141Please respect copyright.PENANA9Y1rl78whe
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3kvAUgsxG3
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
141Please respect copyright.PENANALRFPSfeA91
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAikBNioa8dy
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAaZUWZcWLBF
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAyDOtaqOyOj
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAql4OddqTEc
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAqmmm9mS3Fq
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAHh2DV1usQF
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAybalGJZvrk
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAOBuIRzTMur
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.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAdfVi0yaALn
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAB0qh7cOe4G
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
141Please respect copyright.PENANAv4RyHLjsPQ
Fang’s POV
141Please respect copyright.PENANAYkig589qze
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAYejK3WadNH
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
141Please respect copyright.PENANA9w2ecqe3gW
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAntaUubUZk7
Fang:We’re leaving…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAut3Qtz7ETZ
That was my only option left before I killed them.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAGwduqCg4Nb
Ruby:What?
141Please respect copyright.PENANAB9Ts4ZFLfK
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
141Please respect copyright.PENANAcTfkLb5yRc
Fang:Pinpoint…
141Please respect copyright.PENANAtVruyNdNEk
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
141Please respect copyright.PENANA0SiaS4NrhC
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
141Please respect copyright.PENANABcfnDS6q2A
