Sparks | A NeonxReader story

Chapter 6

Brimstone's P.O.V.:

I walk out of the room with the kid next to me, he looked a little on edge. I can't say I blame him, I mean to him we are all his enemies, and he hasn't gotten used to the fact that we aren't the ones who attacked him. 

"So kid, what should I call you", I ask him, trying to make him a little less tense. 

"My name is Y/N", he answered shortly. Not much of a talker I see, maybe he'll change further down the line, or maybe this is just the way he is. 

"Y/N?", I say. "That's a... name", I say awkwardly. I mean it wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but he looked like a Y/N. Decently tall, maybe 5'10-5'11, looks decently built, maybe 180lbs. He looked like a decent young man. 

"How old are you? If you don't mind me asking", I asked him

"21", he answers shortly again. (We'll just pretend this is your age for the sake of the story)

He was relatively young in comparison to other people in the protocol. The only person who was really younger than him was agent Neon, her being 19. 

"Tell me about yourself", I say, trying to get a little more information than what he gave me originally. 

"There's nothing to tell, my life isn't that interesting, and nothing I want to talk about", he answered. I could feel him being sightly defensive, I guess he doesn't like to talk about himself or his past. 

"Well kid if you're going to be staying with us, I'm going to need some information on you, I'll need to create a file and things like that", I told him. 

He just looked ahead of where we were walking, not saying a word, no emotion was present on his face. 

"Where are we going?", he asked. 

"Well you need a place to sleep don't you? Some clothes maybe, you've gotta be hungry", I tell him, trying to help him get whatever he needed. He said he escaped a year ago and has been on the run ever since, I could only imagine how long its been since he got to have a warm meal and shower. 

"I guess so", he answered. 

I lead him to the rooms that we had, and opened the door to a vacant room. 

He walked in, looking around. "Sorry if its not to your liking, I hope its not to small", I tell him. "Its better than anything I've gotten before, so its plenty", he answered. 

"Thank you", he said, respectfully. 

"You're welcome", I answer him.

Just then I saw Sage coming down the hallway. "Stay here for a minute please. Don't run off now", I said sternly. 

He nodded, and I walked to meet Sage before she made it to her door. "So how did it go?", she asked. "He joined us, but I still, think he is weary. I don't blame him", I told her. "That's wonderful news, I'm sure he'll open up with time", she answered. 

"What do you think we should do? He doesn't seem comfortable around me, and I doubt he'll be comfortable around anyone else here if they remind him of them", I asked her.
