Benji
Benji crawled away from the red-haired man, but there wasn’t much of anywhere to go, seeing as there was a wall right behind him.
He covered his face with his arms, something he’d seen his brothers do many times when sparring, in the hopes that maybe it would help somehow against…whoever this was.
“Easy there…” The man with red hair knelt down. “It’s alright. My name’s Raymond, I’m not going to harm you.”
Benji peeked out from behind his arms, looking at the man, and then the darker looking one behind him. He hid behind his arms again.
The other man blew out a breath. “He obviously doesn’t want anything to do with us. Let’s go.”
“And leave him alone?” Raymond asked. “I don’t think so.” He turned back to the small child, a warm smile on his face. “I assure you, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Benji narrowed his eyes. “I’m not s’posed to talk to strangers.”
Raymond smiled. “Well, that’s a good rule…your parents are very smart. But right now…it looks like you’re all by yourself. Do you know where your family is?”
Benji frowned.
Was he supposed to tell them?
He didn’t know!
His stomach felt all…wiggly. Like there were a ton of spiders crawling around inside…
He didn’t want to say he was alone…
But…he was.
And he didn’t want to be.
He slowly shook his head.
Raymond frowned, brown furrowing. “Ah…well…perhaps we can help you find them, hm?” The man held out a hand, waiting for the boy to take it.
Benji hesitated.
He’d been taught not to talk to strangers. Not to trust strangers until you knew their motives…
Though his mother always seemed to think the best of people…they told him to be wary because he was small…
Because he was a pup.
Would he get into trouble if he went with these two men?
He looked up at the one behind Raymond, eyes narrowing. He sniffed.
He wasn’t entirely sure about that man…
One thing he knew…he didn’t care for him.
But Raymond seemed nice. Maybe he could help him…
Benji sighed, slowly nodding, crawling forward and taking Raymond’s hand. Raymond smiled, gently gripping the boy’s hand in his.
“Seriously? We’re taking him with us?” The other man growled. Benji looked up at him, pursing his lips and glaring (he does have a bit of an attitude sometimes XD)
“Mr. Cummings, it’s fine. He’s just a child.”
The man huffed. “Let’s just get on with this.”

@godlyfantasy12. Awww!!! Benji is just sooo cute!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Cummings
Now they had a stupid child to bring along.
Cummings walked behind Raymond and the little boy down the hall, walking with his walking stick.
Raymond was too soft…bringing this little boy with them.
Raymond turned to face him with a smile. “Cummings, any idea of which direction we should take?” He motioned to the end of the hall, where it split into two directions.
Cummings pointed to the left. “Let’s just go that way.”
Raymond nodded. Turned his attention back to the little boy beside him with a soft smile. “I apologize…but I never even found out your name. What’s your name, little one?”

@godlyfantasy12. @lightoverdarkness6. So we’re combining Lily/Elias/Albert/Aaron with Asher/Matthew/Kiri/Lila, or am I confused…??? 😅

Vance
“Aaron!” Bren screeched for it seemed like the millionth time, waving his arms wildly. “Let me go! Put me down!”
I growled in annoyance, trying my best to not drop him.
“Stop squirming!” I said, glaring at Bren as I tightened my grip.
“No! Let me go! I want my brother!” Bren sniffed. I saw a tear escape his eye.
“Too bad, we don’t always get what we want, kid.”
As I know full well.
I slowed to a walk, passing through a doorway that led to a dark hall.
Bren whimpered as the darkness grew. The dark did not affect my vision, and my eyes accustomed to the shadowy corridor in moments.
Bren stopped struggling, squeezing his eyes shut.
Finally.
He curled into a ball, and in doing so, further into my arms.
“Would you stop moving?” I sighed.
Bren sniffled. He slowly opened his eyes, looking up. “W-What’s your name?”
I looked down at him in surprise, my brows furrowed. “You want to know my name?”
“Yeah…”
I smiled a bit. He reminded me of Dylan, when he was this age.
“Well…I’m Vance…And you’re Bren. So now we’re officially acquainted,” I said slowly.
I walked on in silence. His weight was starting to affect me. I slowed even more. “Here…can you walk?”
He nodded slowly.
I set him down, wary in case he tried to bolt. He didn’t. Instead, he looked around the dark hall, his eyes wide, and shrunk close to my side, his fear of the dark more than his fear of me.
I gazed down at him in mild shock, then smiled a bit.

@godlyfantasy12. @lightoverdarkness6. It’s whichever y’all want!!! 😁🥰
Madelene and Alex could always join Vance and Bren…and be totally confused about what’s going on…😉 But that’s just an idea. 🙂
