Jaune walked towards the next clearing. He noticing that the Log Cabin that he noticed earlier was right in front of him. Apparently drew the Grimm was inside because he couldn't see anything wrong with the house. It looked like a nice two story wooden home for a family to live in. There being two giant windows down stairs that were blocked by curtains and two windows upstairs that were also covered by curtains. The outside lights were off and he couldn't hear any noise what so ever.
Despite the fact that the lights were off outside he could see the that there were some on inside the house which meant there had to be someone there.
His theory was proven correct when some one small like a child ran past the window followed by a loud crash and some one very tall like an adult followed them. From what Jaune could see both were females and he guessed that something bad was happening. If it was a normal argument then there wouldn't be enough negativity to tempt a pack of Grimm and an Alpha. So deciding to be the hero the Arc boy ran to the door and silently checked to see if it was locked.
Unfortunately for him the door was indeed locked so he had to think of another idea.
The blonde went around the house. He looking for another door or an open window of sorts. Of course he found a back door which was also locked, but it was glass and it had the curtains pulled to the side allowing him to look inside. The cabin looked fancy and very expensive. There was rare fur rugs on the floor, a large tv, couches made of leather, and a lot of furniture that looked pricey. All of this was not what caught his attention however. What caught the Arc's attention the most was the fact that the place had looked like a mess, as if there was a fight inside.
Jaune had reached the conclusion that something was indeed wrong and this was confirmed when he saw a young girl around his age run past the door. He watching as she ducked behind a piece of furniture and crawled underneath to hide. On instinct he hid to the side of the glass door. The boy placing his body against the wood and the angle he having allowing him to see what the girl looked like which gave him a dreadful feeling.
The Girl in the house that was currently under the couch was wearing what seemed to be dirty rags full of holes, had dirty black hair that was curled to the right, had pale skin that looked like it was naturally pale but also enhanced as if she never saw the light of day, she also had amber colored eyes and from what he could see she was wearing no socks that allowed him to notice her some what long toe nails. Now that he looked at her more he could see that her finger nails were also longer than normal and her body seemed malnourished to the point he could see her ribs through her rags. The girls face looked terrified and was watching the door way with anxiety.
The Arc's bad feeling only grew when he saw an older woman walk into the room. She looked angry and mean spirited with just a glance. As he examined the older woman he noticed that she was dressed in a red dress that was over a purple fancy under shirt and had a green gem on top of the two. The woman had gray hair with three white high lights. One on the left, one in the middle, and one on the right. She had red lips and wrinkles on her face with light green eyes. She looked even crueler up close and looked as if she had a permanent sneer on her face.
The older woman looked around the inside of the room for a moment and then his bad feeling grew worse when he saw two more girls enter the room. One girl wore a fancy purple dress and the other a greenish yellow. Both looked similar making him think that they were siblings, but the two had different hair colors. One had orange hair and the other had brown hair.
As Jaune examined the three more he noticed similarities between them and assumed they were all related. His eyes darted over to the hiding girl and when he compared her and them he saw no resemblance what so ever.
The woman seemed to say something and no one responded. He figured the she was talking to the hiding girl so he analyzed the situation. The boy looking in the room more trying to find some clues. He seeing some photos of a black haired man with blue eyes and the older woman along with the three girls, The black haired man alone with the black haired girl, and Then he saw one photo of the same black haired man with another woman. The other woman looked kind, caring, and beautiful. She had amber eyes and brown curled hair.
The answer came to Jaune with in a moment.
The black haired man looked rich and always was wearing fancy clothes. So did the two women along with the girls. The photos were progressing in a way. One with the man and the beautiful woman then there was the man looking very depressed in one picture with the black haired and amber eyed girl, followed by the man with a new woman and two girls and the black haired girl, lastly was the new woman with the two girls all looking smug and arrogant about something while the other amber eyed girl in the picture looked sad beyond belief.
It seemed as if the photos were telling a story: A rich man fell in love and was loved by the first woman. They married and had a child who was the black haired and amber eyed girl. Unfortunately something happened and the woman had died leaving the man and their daughter all alone. She may have died in child birth. The man had remarried hoping to give the girl a mother figure and he married a woman with daughters so she could not be an only child. The man had died most likely because of the new woman and due to her daughters expressions they had known too. Which meant the plan was to gain the wealth of the rich man. With only his young daughter left to claim the inheritance it seemed as if they gave it to his widow.
Now with what he learned about the Grimm being attracted to negative emotions it seemed as if it had all built up over the years due to what seemed to be the step mother and her daughters abusing the step daughter.
Of course everyone has a breaking point because it seemed as if the step daughter had retaliated finally and which had lead to the current situation. Obviously the older woman wanted to get rid of the mans daughter so that she would not be a threat to her fortune when she grew up. So she had weakened her by not letting her eat or drink, Controlled what she wore to make sure she never bathed hoping that she would get sick and become even weaker, and had probably tortured her mentally since any physical evidence of her plan would call her into questioning and would have had an investigation done into the husband and daughters death.
The amber eyed girl keen on not dying had most likely snapped and did something so she could try to survive which lead to her being chased and hiding.
As Jaune focused back on what was happening he noticed that the older woman talked and her two daughters left into two different rooms. They most likely searching for the black haired girl by splitting up and completely missing the fact that she was under the couch. The step mother also leaving and going into another room. Once they were all gone the amber eyed girl crawled out from under the couch and nervously walked back towards the room she came from. She facing the way her step family came from.
At this moment Jaune decided to do something. He tapped the glass gently trying to get the black haired girls attention.
His plan worked and when he tapped on it she looked at him. The blond boy waved and then gestured at the door. The girl looked nervously at him, but figured that this could be a chance to escape and walked over. She unlocked the door and opened it slightly.
Jaune whispering "Hey I saw those three jerk ladies and you hiding. You ok?" as he looked into her amber eyes concerned. What he called her step family earned him a small smile and a light giggle that sounded beautiful. She whispering "Yeah i'm fine. They have always been jerks so I learnt to deal with it." Her voice was raspy as if she hadn't had water in a long time, but it also sounded very pretty to the seven year old boy.
The blond boy decided to introduce himself by saying "Well my names Jaune Arc. Whats yours?" as he looked at her with a small grin on his face. The Arc trying to get her to relax and maybe get out of the house so they could escape and she could be free.
The girl smiled at him more and opened the glass door a bit to step out an inch. She looking outside both ways and they both looking behind her to see if her step family came back. When they confirmed no one was around she looked back at him and came out side saying "My names Cinder Fall. Nice to meet you." as she shyly looked at the boy.
He could tell they would be great friends one day.
((Ultra Cliff hanger there folks. I hope you all enjoyed. For those of you who don't know Cinder is based off the fairy tale Cinderella with a semblance to control glass like the glass slipper and the tattoo of the shoe on her back, So I gave her the back story of the evil step mother and sisters in this fic. Of course it will be the same in my other fan fictions as well. Like I said before I have both good news and bad news.
Good News: I will try to do Two stories on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday being Gamer and Saying Soul Arc with Sunday being Reacts and Force Soul arc. Bad news: I don't think I will ever be able to continue on Lone-Old-Man-Logan's legacy. With my job being Monday-Friday from 8 am to 5/5:30/6 pm I do not think I will ever have the time to keep my promise to her. SO with her permission I have been given the ability to let one of YOU loyal reviewers a chance to adopt her stories. So again please message me if interested.
Anyways I will see you all in the next chapter of Saiyan Soul Arc which I will be working on and posting today as well. See you then. Peace out.))
