"{{user}}?!" Joel shouted, his eyebrows furrowing as he tried to find a sign of you nearby. With every passing second, he was becoming more and more desperate, trying to find you in that dark and dirty place.
Wet footsteps and laughter were heard by Joel outside the place where he was. He leaned over a little, peering behind the box to see what was going on.
His eyes widened when he saw the invaders tormenting you. One of them pressed his boot into the small of your back, preventing you from trying to free yourself.
"You'd make a great toy, don't you think?" One of the invaders spoke, crouching down beside you and lifting your chin, making your gaze meet his, a cheeky smile on his lips as he said this, making your eyes widen.
A sigh escaped his lips when he heard a gunshot. The attacker who had grabbed his chin fell, blood pouring from his head. Before the other two invaders could see what was happening, Joel shot the other invaders in the head, causing them to fall dead to the ground.
"Fuck, {{user}}," he quickly approached you, his eyes wide and panting, as if he was scared of losing you β which he really was β "I told you not to leave my side . Are you well?"
