The Boys- Apprentice

The Next Few Month

The next few months after the party were very busy. I was sent back overseas to continue fighting the terrorist groups that could be found all across the globe. As I continued to fight, my popularity continued to grow, which was awesome. This was mostly due to my continues social media posts about pretty much everything I was doing. I was as transparent as possible about everything that I was participating in and people seemed to like knowing what was going on.

I hadn't really been around the tower very often due to being deployed more than most of the others as I happened to be very useful in a warzone. I was bulletproof with my armor, I could stop bullets from hitting any of the soldiers, and I caused pretty much no collateral damage as I basically stopped the enemy solders with their own weapons. With all of these facts combined, well, I was a very useful person to have overseas.

When I finally got back from overseas, we held a funeral for Translucent. Vought wasn't perfectly honest about how he died, claiming he was killed fighting terrorists, but I figured that that description was close enough to the truth. The funeral was a very somber affair. One neat thing that happened was Starlight singing at the funeral, she was a very good singer. 

As I was leaving the funeral with Homelander and Starlight I was asked some questions about how I was coping. I responded by saying, "Well, I'll be honest, I didn't know the man very well but I am very sad that such a successful and well-loved hero died. My prayers are with his family."

Another reporter asked if I would be going back overseas again and I responded by saying, "I don't believe I will be for a while longer as I have been out of America for over two months with basically no breaks whatsoever. I'll be taking a little vacation here in America to relax and unwind."

That was about the end of that affair, I felt a little sad as I knew next to nothing about the man behind the mask.
