We were finally free, together we got Charlie home, it took us several weeks to find his family, but we did and he was excited to go home. I was sad and happy to see him go, he was like my little brother, but he had to go, he needed to be with the people he loved.
"Ah." Medic said as he sat down next to you. "Vhat about jou? Vhere is home for jou?"
"I don't have one."
"Nonsense, everyone has a home."
"No, I really don't, I've been with him ever since I was little, I don't know anything about my actual parents or how he got me."
"I see."
"You can find someplace to drop me off, I'll work out what to do from there."
"Never!" Medics eyes seem to grow cold. "I could never do zat to jou."
"Then what are we to do?"
Medic looked around at the others, sleeping in the tight camper. "Jou shall stay vith us, it could be scary, but I promise, I vill take güt care of jou."
"Really?" A sweeping feeling of relief and joy spread across your body. "Thank you." You burrowed your face into his white lab coat as he stroked your head.
"Of course Kind (kint)."
The team seems excited that you would be staying with them, some more than others. The masked man or Spy seemed less excited than everyone else, saying their line of work is no place for a child. You clung to Medic as he said that, you really didn't want to leave.
Finally after several days of driving since giving Charlie to his parents, you made it to the house, or base, as they called it.
"Home sweet home." Scout said while taking a deep breath. "Yep, still smells of blood and alcohol."
"Don't vorry Messen, jou'll get used to ze smell." You clung to the doctor, nervous of the dark stone walls. He patted your head. "Come now Kind."
He leads you deeper to the base, the all to Familiar feeling was creeping back into your skull, and walls felt small and you started to cry.
"Ich bin, sorry, Liebe, come here." The doctor picked you up and carried you into the base. "I promise jou're not back there." As soon as he said those words he entered a part of the base and was beautiful, big and open. Pool table, games, tv, you began to relax.
"Home sweet home!" Scout burst through the door behind you and ran up to the couch and flopped on it grabbing a controller.
"Scout!" A French voice soon called after. "Wat ze hell is zis?!" He points to the bag abandon on the floor in the door way.
"I'll get them in a minute."
They proceeded to have a fight and you giggled at them, so goofy.
Slowly you relax and became more comfortable with your surroundings. Medic helps you set up your room as the other clean up the base.
"Medic?" you pause from unpacking. "Why do you call it a base?"
"Because ve're mercenaries, zis is home base for us."
"Mercenaries?" This word was new for you.
"Gunz for hire."
"That's so cool!" Your eyes light up and a smile appears on you face. Medic smiles at you.
"Vne day jou'll be vne of us."
"Promise?"
"I promise."
