《Accidentally Adopted by iBallisticSquid》Dad?

Izzy's PoV:
I ran into the forest. I could just about see Flo in the distance. I kept on running but Flo was a much faster runner than me and I quickly lost her. I started to walk as there was no point in running anymore, Flo was too far away to me even getting close to catching her up. After about ten minutes of walking I saw movement ahead, "Flo?!" I shouted but there was no reply. I started walking towards where I had seen the movement from and from out behind a tree came, "Dad?" I whispered. "Izzy?" He said. I nodded running towards him and hugging him. When he let go he crouched down and looked at me in the eyes. "The doctors got it wrong, I never died, this means we can be a family again!" He said happily. "No." I said quietly. His face turned stern, "What did you say?" There was now an edge to his voice as well. "I said no, I'm happy now." I said backing away from him. "Those people you were with..." he said. I nodded, "Dad I'm sorry, but I hadn't seen you in seven years, I thought you were dead!" He looked angry, really angry. "YOU IDIOT!!!!!" He yelled. "Dad!! I'm sorry!" I cried. He ran up to me grabbing my wrist. I screamed in pain. "Your coming with me!" He shouted, "So shut up!"
"NO!!! I'm living with Squid and Nicole now!" (Even though this was only half true now) I yanked my wrist from his grasp. "If I ever see that man I will kill him!"
Suddenly someone was behind me, "Well I'm here now!" It was Squid. "No! Squid run, he will kill you!!" I cried. "Just get out of here!" Squid said pushing me away. Suddenly Sqaishey was there, "It will be okay. Squid will be fine." Her voice calmed me but I was still terrified for Squid. I kept my face pressed into Sqaishey side not wanting to see what was happening to Squid.

Sqaishey's PoV:
Me and Squid ran after Izzy into the woods, we had no idea which way she had gone so we just went forward calling her name.
About 15 minutes later we heard screams. I looked at Squid who started sprinting in the direction of the screams. I followed him but he was much faster than me.
When I caught up with him, he was trying to push Izzy away from him, I looked behind Squid and saw a man who was advancing towards Squid. He looked scary, I pulled Izzy away and tried to comfort her. She buried her face into my side, I knew I should try and leave as we were in danger but last time I left Squid, Izzy went into hospital. I decided to stay a little distance away so we weren't in immediate danger but we could still see what was happening.
I heard running footsteps behind me, I turned around and saw four figure. As they got closer I realised it was Tom, Stampy, Ash and James. I let out a sigh of relief and turned back to look at Squid. The man had Squid in a head lock but Squid had him pushed against a tree. Suddenly the man yelled in anger and he managed to flip Squid over. I heard Squid cry in pain as he hit the ground and I turned away not wanting to see what would happen next.
I felt warm arms wrap around me and immediately I knew it was Stampy, "Come on girls lets get out of here." Stampy's voice sounded so calm. I opened my eyes as he led us out of the woods.
We had gone about ten metres when I heard James yell, I turned around to see the man running right towards us. He ran past is grabbing Izzy and throwing her over his shoulder. She screamed for me and I sprinted after them. Stampy appeared beside me, he was faster than me so he quickly over took me. I saw him grab Izzy from behind the man, he then immediately stopped running so Izzy would fly out of the scary man's arms and into Stampy. Stampy fell to the floor from the impact and I helped them up before this man could get them.

Stampy stood in front of us to do protect us from him. "Dad! Stop!" Izzy cried. This man was Izzy's dad! I had no idea! Suddenly there was a loud noise behind us and I heard someone shout, "Stop! You are under arrest!" I turned around to see five policemen running towards us.
One of them came over to us and explained that Izzy's father would go straight to prison as they witnessed him trying to run away with Izzy.
They led us out of the woods and back to Squid's house where Ash, James and Squid already were. Squid wasn't to badly injured although he had s bit of a limp, even so the policemen decided that he wouldn't need to go to hospital as long as he rested.
*Time Skip*
Izzy's PoV:
I was so happy but so scared as well, everything had been happening in the past hour. First, my dad tried to kidnap me then he was put in hospital. That was a lot to process! But, on a happier note, when Flo had heard the screams she got scared and ran back to Adam, who was still at Squid's house. I was so happy when I saw Flo, she apologised to me but I just hugged her.
Then things got really good! Julie appeared and said that now Dad was in prison and Squid had showed that he would protect me, then I can stay and live with Squid.
I started crying and hugged Squid really hard.
Lots of people had to leave. So Adam took Flo back to Birmingham which made me really upset so I didn't really care that Julie said she was leaving. All the policemen had left a long time ago so now it was just the gang again.
I suddenly became really tired and I nearly fell asleep on the sofa, so Squid picked me up and carried me to my room. Well I thought he was going to my room but actually he went to his and Nicole's room. I was too tired to ask why though so I just started to fall asleep.
I felt Squid's arm wrap around me so I turned over and snuggled into his side. I felt safe like this and I never ever wanted me to be taken away from him, but with me luck, I probably will.

Killing Tree
When your day goes to hell and you find yourself kidnapped, strung up from a magical tree, and left to bleed out, what do you do next? Asking for a friend. Fortunately, Riordan Kincaid is a tough, gives-no-fucks honey badger shifter. Unfortunately, now that he's survived the first attempt, a death mage and their cult are determined to finish the job by whatever means necessary, pursuing Riordan across the wilds of rural Michigan. Ghosts and spirits are outside of his specialty, and heaven help him if he has to cast actual spells, but Riordan isn't going to make this easy on his enemies. Even if that means breaking his long exile, turning to the local shifter community for help, and dealing with a bureaucratic department of mages. And don't even get him started on getting licked by a damn spirit bear. Now he just needs to figure out what will kill him first: his enemies, his past, or his own attempts at using magic? Or will Riordan beat the odds and prove that honey badgers really are that hard to kill? If so, what will he do with a life once hung upon a tree that's more than a tree?
