Y/N pov:

I walk down the hallway sheepishly, wondering what was happening. I open Whispers bedroom door and look inside, she's whimpering and crying, all her wisps are trying to wake her up, to no avail. They get my attention, and motion towards her, telling me to wake her up.

I rush to her side and shake her gently, hoping that she'll wake up and not be too scared by the sudden movement. "N-no more..." I hear her say, no more what? "G-get away from them..." I begin shaking her more violently. "Whisper, it's ok, wake up! Your ok!" Suddenly she jolts up and punches me in the jaw.

"DONT TOUCH MY FAMILY!!"

The words echo throughout the room as she comes to her senses, and she sees who she just punched. Her eyes are completely open now, you see they're a beautiful blue color. "Y-Y/N!?" She looks like she's seen a ghost. She looks away from me, crying harder "i-im sorry..." she runs out of the room, grabbing her cloak, mask, and grappling hook. I hear the front door open and slam shut. I look at the wisps, they seem like they know what happened. The pink one motions toward the wispon, and all 5 of the wisps go into it. I grab the wispon reluctantly, I hope Whisper isn't too mad I used it... I run out of the front door, determined to find her.

I look in the woods for hours, calling her name. "Whisper? Whisper!" Eventually i find her on the edge of a clearing. She's on a tree branch, curled up in a ball, still softly crying. I try to climb the tree, but don't make it far before I fall on my ass. I hear the wispon make a noise, looking down, I notice it's turned green. Having a suspicion of what that meant, I pull the trigger, and the wispon starts floating upwards, carrying me with it.

Once I get on eye level with Whisper, she comes out of her ball and stares at me. "Why did you follow me..?" I sit on a branch next to hers. "I was worried about you..." she puts her face back into her knees, so her voice is muffled. "I-i hurt you..." I look at her, and tap her shoulder, so she looks at me."It's ok... you were scared, delirious, you didn't know it was me." She looks away and doesn't say anything. "What was the dream about?" She looks at me with wide eyes, like she's debating telling me.

Suddenly the wisps come out of the wispon, and start talking to her. Whatever they told her eased her mind, and she takes off her mask, her eyes back to being squinted. "I used to be a mercenary... part of a group called the diamond cutters..." I knew the name vaguely, I had heard it thrown around a couple of times at HQ. "I think I know of them... you guys destroyed a lot of Eggman bases, right?" She nods her head slowly. "We were the best of the best... but we didn't just destroy them, we took valuable scrap to sell..." I look her in the eyes as I ask my next question.

"So... what happened to them?"
