Followed [Book 1]

"Empty!?" Screeched Namjoon. "No, she's gotta be here!"

"We've searched every room 8 people can cover, Joon. She's not here." Said Yoongi.

It was true. The maze of a warehouse was searched as good as it could've been. They didn't have their night-vision goggles with them so they could only look with their dainty phone lights.

Namjoon sighed. He put his hands on his head and paced in the deserted space. The rest of the members were awkwardly silent. They had picked the wrong warehouse, but how? Jungkook was never wrong.

    In the quietness of the empty room, there was a small whimper. You'd miss it if you were talking, but the awkward silence of the group made the perfect conditions to hear it.

    "What was that?" Asked Jimin.

    "Charlotte?!" Namjoon yelled.

    There was another whimper, and a scratching sound. The group ran (except for grandma Kim. It was more of a hobble to keep up with the boys) to where they thought the sound was coming from. 

    Slowing down every once in a while to listen to the whimpers and scratches, the group had finally found the door that the sound was coming from.

    "On 3, we bust the door down." Said Namjoon.

    "1"
    "2"

    Boom. The door burst open.

    "Who did that?" Asked Yoongi.

    "I was getting tired of waiting. You guys take too long." Said Grandma Kim pushing past the group.

    Grabbing the flashlight she had grabbed from the van (without telling anyone) she searched the room. There was a dog bed with a bit of fluff sticking out in the middle. But that was no ordinary piece of stuffing. It was shivering.

    "I found who cried for help." Grandma said, picking up the small puppy with black ears.

    "Awww!" Said everyone but Namjoon.

    "So it was just a dog?" The grandson asked.

    "It seems so." Said Grandma Kim.

    "Namjoon can we keep it?" Asked Hoseok.

    "Uh-"

    "HELL no! We're not keeping that thing!" Yoongi said, cutting Namjoon off.

    "I specifically said Namjoon, asswipe." Growled Hoseok.

    "I think we should keep it." Said Jin.

    Everyone jumped, because they forgot that the second eldest was still there. He had been so quiet.

    "All in favor of keeping the dog, say I." Said Grandma Kim.

    6/7 said I.

    "Namjoon! You betrayed me!" Whined Yoongi.

    "Sorry man, I've always wanted a dog. Now was my chance." Shrugged the younger.

    After searching the room once more, they found some dog toys. A purple horse, a pink bunny, an alpaca, a cookie, a blue koala, a robot and a heart-shaped 'thing' as Yoongi referred to it.

    The group left the warehouse once they had grabbed all of the things in the room. The tired puppy curled up in Grandma Kim's lap and fell asleep.

    "We're gonna need to feed this thing." Said Yoongi.

    "I'm well aware of this." Said Namjoon.

    "If it pees on my bed, we throw it away."

    Everyone started yelling at Yoongi.

    "That's not how it works, Mr. Sir!" Yelled Jimin.

    "I'm not letting you go anywhere near this dog!" Said Hoseok.

    "You touch this dog and I throw YOU away." Said Grandma Kim.

    Once everyone was done shelling insults at Yoongi, the van went quiet. They were all looking at Namjoon. They hadn't found Charlotte, and had no leads on where she was. Everyone started to feel sorry for their leader.

   Would they ever find Charlotte?

A/N: Hello! I now have a strategy. I'm going to write a chapter on Tuesday, and either get it out on Wednesday or Thursday. Luv U all!
