Thank you! This ended up being a lot longer than a little continuation. Like the Leader was just going to find Whumpee then apologise but it ended up like this... Hope this works for you.

Part 1 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

---

Whumpee sniffed as they tucked their bag between their knees, trying to shield to from the rain. The leaky underpass mostly protected them from the rain of the storm. But wind and water still blew in, and water splashed onto their clothes as they shivered miserably.

Their bag had the team’s logo, cool blue angular wings on a black backpack. It carried a few clothes and mementos, everything Whumpee could take on short notice. They had already chewed through all their snacks. Whumpee hugged it, for warmth and to connect them to their team, their family.

They could only blame themselves for their situation, if they were more useful, then they could have stayed with them. They knew that.

They looked to the blankets opposite them, they were old and torn. Whumpee guessed that they had been left there for months. Insects crawled through the holes of the damp sheets. Whumpee weighed their options between freezing or having bugs crawl on them all night.

They wondered who left them. Are they still homeless? Did they find somewhere new to live? Or did they die on the streets?

Because that’s what they were, weren’t they? Homeless. Without a home, or family. All because of how useless they were.

���Hello there.”

Whumpee jumped at the sound and looks up to see a tall man in dark jeans and a black shirt. They had a utility belt filled with various items around their waist. They smiled down at them, kind brown eyes matched brown spiky hair. They reminded Whumpee of Leader.

“Are you alright there? You seem pretty young to be out here.”

Whumpee tried to find their voice, “I-I’m fine.”

The man’s eyes creased in worry, “You sure? I can take you in for the night. Then call the authorities in the morning.”

Whumpee looked up at the eyes of the stranger, they could see their shivering, hunched form reflected in them. They didn’t want to die like this.

“S-sure. Thank you very much.”

The man’s lips turned up and they held a hand out.

“What’s your name?” he asked as he pulls Whumpee up.

“Whumpee.” They replied, still holding the bag in their arms as they walked alongside the stranger.

“Hello, Whumpee." the man smiles then looks down at the bag.

"By the way, what’s that logo on your bag?”

Whumpee looked down at it sadly, “It’s my team’s logo. Or at least it was.”

Then they smile, “Teammate designed it, she always used to say that branding is important.”

“Couldn’t agree more,” the man replied cheerfully.

Whumpee decided to change the subject, “So, what’s your name?”

“Whumper.” he replied with a grin.

--

“What do you mean, “they’ve gone”?!” Teammate yelled.

“They left a note, saying they packed their bags and left.” Leader runs a hand through his hair anxiously, “They said that they were useless and didn’t want to hold the team back.”

“Why would they say that?” Medic asked softly.

“Probably because they couldn’t do their part last mission then I told them not to join us next time.”

“So, this is your fault.” Teammate hissed.

Medic whirled his head to face her, “Teammate! That’s not- "

“No,” Leader sighed. “She’s right. I shouldn’t have given them that mission in the first place and I should have explained that I was just giving them time to rest. It's my fault they're gone.”

Medic had tears in his eyes, “They’re still recovering and they’re out there in this storm.”

“I know, but we’re going to find them.”

“How?” Teammate snarled.

Leader was about to answer when the screen behind him flicked to life. There was a video call incoming from an unknown number.

The team glanced at each other in confusion before Leader answered it. The camera showed a dark room that was dimly lit by red lights. There was a chair in the centre with someone in a blindfold struggling in it. Leader squinted at the person, but it was too dark to tell who it was.

Until they cried out, “Let me go! Please!”

“Whumpee!” Leader yelled.

He looks back to see his team’s reactions to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. Sure enough, Teammate had their mouth gaped and Medic had a hand to his mouth. Both had matching wide eyes of horror.

Leader’s head snaps back to the screen when he sees movement in the corner of his eye. He looks back to see a man with a malicious grin in the middle of the screen.

“Missing someone?” he mocks.

Leader growled, “You hurt a hair on their head and you answer to me.”

“So, you do care. That’s useful.”

Whumper walks toward the edge of the room and pulls out a large stick with a flat rectangular end. He points the end to the camera and there’s a logo engraved on it.

Leader’s eyes widen as he realises that it’s the mark of their enemy.

“What’s he doing?” Teammate asks, her tone rising in fear.

Whumper smiles, “You must be Teammate.”

Teammate gasps as Leader puts his arm out protectively in instinct.

“Branding is important, huh?” he continues.

Whumper pulls a lighter out of his belt, he flicks it on and begins to heat up the end.

Medic takes his hand away from his mouth as tears leaked from his eyes.

“No! Please don’t!”

Whumper walks toward Whumpee who had started sobbing in relief.

“Leader, Teammate, Medic! You came! Please help me. Please, I can be useful. I can be good! Please!”

Leader stares up at the screen in horror, “Whumpee, no!”

“W-what? What is it?”

Whumper’s footsteps echo in Whumpee’s ears.

“Leader, please help me out of here.”

“No, Whumpee!” Leader screams, “That’s not me! Get out of there!”

“Sorry, Whumpee.” Whumper smirks, “Your team aren’t here, but I’m sure they will be.”

Whumpee twitches away from something pointed at their upper arm, singeing the hairs on it.

“W-what is that?”

Whumper pushes the brand into Whumpee’s arm who screams and thrashes in the chair.

Medic shrieks as Teammate lets out yells and curses.

Leader watches in horror, after a few moments that seemed to drag on for eternity, the brand is pulled away leaving an angry red mark on Whumpee’s pale skin. He feels nausea rising with his rage.

“I’m going to kill you, you monster!”

Whumper turns back to the screen. Behind him, Whumpee sucks in breaths and whimpers.

“I’ll tell you what you’re going to do.” Whumper walks back to the screen, twirling the stick in his hand. “You’re going to surrender to me and my team.”

Leader’s eyes narrow as Whumper continues.

“And if you don’t, well...” Whumper pulls a knife out of his belt.

“Whumpee and I are going to have some more fun.”

Leader tenses, “Just me or- “

“Yes, yes, just you. Playing with the others would be fun but taking your team down is my job and there’s no team without its leader.”

Leader looks between Whumper and Whumpee, fists clenched.

“Fine.”

“No!” Teammate shouts.

Medic looks toward the leader in shock, “You can’t- “

“Where do you want me?”

“My team will send you the co-ordinates, they were pretty good at finding your contact details after all.”

“Don’t touch Whumpee until I’m there.” Leader warns.

“Sounds fair to me,” Whumper laughs. “Though I suggest you hurry, I get bored easily.”

Whumper hangs up and Leader makes his way to the door.

“Don’t do it!” Teammate yells after him.

Leader pauses but doesn’t look back, “I have to. Like you said, this is my fault. It’s my job to protect them.”

Teammate looks down, regretting her words. Medic looks up at the leader with tears in his eyes.

“A-at least take a jacket?” he offered quietly.

Leader looks back and smiles fondly, “Sure.”

He grabs his jacket from a hook then walks out of the door.

[moonjade]

Genuinely upsetting that one day I woke up and had no desire for a romantic relationship anymore and it’s been like that ever since. What is wrong with me??? I’ve had 0 desire for a relationship for like 2 weeks now and it’s genuinely baffling. I don’t know what to do lol, I’ve never felt like this before and I’ve never questioned my romantic identity quite as much as I have been in these past two weeks

[crimsonblackrose]

Please join me in a moment of pure shock that my mini boss jumped in and started helping me with a task and decide oh hell nah this is boring AF I’m getting you actual help next week you shouldn’t be doing this by yourself. On top of on Tuesday her coming in seeing the people who were here on Monday didn’t do anything and essentially bringing the hammer down so I wouldn’t have to do it all by myself. Which I think included pushing back to our main boss to make our boss do their job and flat out tell everyone how many hours they’re supposed to be helping me with said task.

[a-hopeless-individual]
