HLVRAI except its an AU

What to do now? (IV)

After getting sufficiently away from the situation, Gordon pressed his back against a wall and slid down, racking his brain to figure out how exactly to sooth Tommy. Soda? What else did Tommy like? Why was Tommy attacking him?

"Gonna cry, straight guy?" Benrey said, looking down on Gordon. With no response, Benrey stepped back and sat besides Gordon. Gordon looked away, trying to ignore Benrey's presence.

"Tommy also not human, idiot" Benrey stated "And he's mad at you"

"Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious now," Gordon said. The two sat in silence before Gordon spoke again. "I'm just not sure what would get him to stop. Why is he even doing this?"

"IDK, bro" Benrey said "but he stole my hacks"

"Wait wait wait wait wait" Gordon said "Why the hell are you helping me? You tried to kill me before"

"Uhhh, not really. Yo, uh, you were suppose to turn on hacks too and fuck around. Friend." Benrey said, shrugging.

"Wait, I can turn on hacks?" Gordon said "Tell me how and I'll be able to defeat Tommy"

"Uhh, what?" Benrey said "Uhh, how about you gimme a kiss,, and I'll tell you"

Gordon groaned in frustration. Benrey was going to be no help, maybe even possibly a hindrance. Gordon stood up to pace around a bit to get the thinking fluid flowing. What did Tommy like? Why was Tommy doing this? It couldn't be the death thing, right? Maybe something happened to something Tommy loved. There couldn't be too much--he didn't have any family and he only has his love for soda, an immortal dog and an excellent aim. That's it! He got it!

"The dog!" Gordon said, stopping in his tracks.

"Huh, what?" Benrey said as Gordon trapped Benrey against the wall using his arms.

"You're gonna take me to where Sunkist is" Gordon said. Benrey tried to smooch him but Gordon recoiled.

"Uhh, sure, I guess" Benrey said. "But like, I don't have my hacks anymore and yo dick still out. Not that I'm complaining tho"

"What?" Gordon said, looking down. It was a lie. Gordon looked at Benrey and started walking away "You know what, if you're not gonna help I'm gonna find the dog myself"

"Uh wait, bro" Benrey said, appearing in front of Gordon after materalized out of the side of the wall "You're uhh too dumb to figure this out by yourself, heh, dipshit"

"How did you do that? I thought you didn't have hacks anymore." Gordon said, deadpan.

"Yeah, I don't," Benrey said, trailing behind Gordon. Gordon continued on looking for Sunkist. He checked his surroundings and recognized it as the floor where Benrey jumped him and took his arm.

"Are we there yet, feetman? Or did you get lost you, you little baby man"

"For the last time, it's Freeman, not fucking feetman" Gordon said, shooting Benrey in the face. Benrey looked at Gordon and replied, "feetman" their face now a bloody mound. They traversed the land quickly since Gordon had been here before and knew where to go. *It also helped that the majority of the US army soldiers were no longer present. They traveled in relative silence too, save for Benrey's jippy comments. Finally, they came across the flat looking dog.

"Sunkist," Gordon said before the dog scrambled off to a hiding place.

"Congrats, bro, you found the dog" Benrey said "Now what?"

"We have to get it back to Tommy"

"Uhh, what? Why?"

"Weren't you listening to the goddang plan?"
