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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDl05NDkYW
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AYF3pKY5o
Man:There it is Scream! Scream your little heart out SCREAM LIKE YOUR MOTHER DID WHILE THE GRIMM TORE HER TO SHREDS!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqpsXm8oqz
Fang was taken back by that remark. What did he mean? What is The Grimm?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr796jWlVn
Ruby was coughing but somehow held back her tears.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82lpUzeo2Q
Fang:(Thought)Why did she want to return to this?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTMEDeJGPL
Man:Well come on CRY!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMCrwU01ca
Ruby held strong; she sniffled and choked but refused to cry.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOfbAfeHjK
Man:What do you think you’re tough now just because you survived in the forest? Then hit me!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwE5AHgZ5g
Ruby stayed down; The Man bit his bottom lip.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUdN7XiYau
Man:Drag yourself to bed with no food.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqxwvcBTDl
Ruby did as she was told, holding her once again battered ribs. Ruby dragged herself through the house.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnBr2ExMDL
Man:(Spits) Pathetic…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6HSzRcEzx
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL6Ew1RKYA
Fang:(Thought) An attic?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7SZmP2P5N
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZA7dca0c1
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:
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EVhe3w22K
Fang slid down the roof and vaulted into the attic without making a sound. He looked around to find it was completely empty.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L5uKIGsvK
Fang:(Thought) I could’ve sworn her energy signal came from here…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uMxCHKTwV
He looked behind him and found Ruby resting under the window, trying to dodge the draft coming through the window.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9DmRb5rDn
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…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkMnX15k3h
Fang:(Thought) I’ll heal her anyways.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunlMm7SfEm
…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHedOzpEqu
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RLukxubyb
Woman:And you are?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkUfaQYTft
Fang:Fang Twilight, a friend of Ruby.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA312VEKtV
Woman:(Chuckles) A friend…of this brat!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju7yPzAEbD
Fang looked down at Ruby as she began to stir, before returning his attention to the lady.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEyWYshEnq
Ruby’s Pov:
After another dreamless sleep I awoke to find both my stepmom and…Fang? When did he get here?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE9q4Zug40
Fang:Don’t you dare call her a brat!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRvEx9xhtF
He was enraged…why?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bbOHBI3GB
Stepmom:She murdered her own mother and threatened me.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYnPZVXpsR
No…NO NO NO NOT THE LIES! If Fang actually believes them I’ll have no one anymore…again…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP7btXF9fo
Fang:QUIT LYING YOU SHAMELESS GOAT!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVjVXIQFRx
Huh?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSQG5vbt0D
My Stepmom was taken back by that remark.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oO5aHBP6N
Stepmom:How dare you?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlaEFVscYx
Fang:NO how dare you, Your voice is filled with nothing but lies and forgery.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5lQt20dbi
I sat up drawing both of their attentions.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmWavHPMFA
Fang:(Smiles) Morning Ruby…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAqYZyHLX3
Even though I just heard him arguing he still talked nicely to me…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIP2qRaeyI
Ruby:Morning…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31RMw89x6k
Stepmom:Oh quiet you! can’t you see the grownups talking…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDnmxhJtIR
Fang:(Growls) Oh SHUT IT KAREN!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtybhpTnidY
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnmw7YlJzQ
Ruby:FANG!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7ctj32L60
Fang:Keep talking about my friend and you will die.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedKQKVyCxj
Stepmom:Try…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf5kwtzEJg
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ean3sMvwM
BOOM!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHU8fJI7rT
Fang’s blade was unsheathed; the cyan aura had trailed down to his blade.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDfTBGv8R2
Fang:What was that?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX6mWKQHmu
Ruby:FANG CALM DOWN!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaxmVJJA9r
Stepmom:You tried to kill me?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8PGq2mmK0
Fang:That was a warning you snake.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XnnKTc0ON
Dad:Honey, what’s going on up there?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3AHohZi9F
NO my father was coming this could get bad.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9EDfgkVHm
Stepmom:HELP THE MISTAKE AND SOME RANDOM BOY IS ATTACKING ME!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2WJtY69mB
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHb3CyKClA
Father:WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQw60iTsit
Fang:I could ask you the same question, Abuser.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu5ktOFjcx
My father looked at me with such rage in his eyes, it was obvious he was gonna beat me to death once this ended…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi52AcOAtow
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.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOvdFIe61s
Father:What I do with my daughter is none of your business.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4urKKIfuW
Fang:What you do to my Friend is my business!
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB0oimuevG
Fang’s POV
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgTMjEtMbw
I wanna kill them…and I could too. Just one swipe could wipe them both off the map.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uWpw9Ex0x
Ruby:Fang calm down I’m fine.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JRFd6tldk
She may have been fine but this situation was far from fine.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOEriLEN3k
Fang:We’re leaving…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lQvzLpx0D
That was my only option left before I killed them.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUe8KGSPj3
Ruby:What?
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIpk2TDYWU
Ruby’s father:You aren’t taking my daughter anywhere.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3p3a0nRiql
Fang:Pinpoint…
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwUqw6OD8p
There was an azure colored flash. Ruby's father and stepmom opened their eyes to find that Ruby and Fang had disappeared.
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmerqkJ5fAp
Ruby’s Father:That little brat!
