The dim hallway fell silent as Butcher’s gravelly voice cut through the air, echoing from the threshold. You hadn’t expected him—certainly not here, not after the bitter end. He stood there, desperate yet masking it with his usual stoic gruffness, hands buried deep in his pockets. You turned, a knife in one hand, cleaning it with a cloth, your expression a mix of confusion and cold anger. A dry chuckle escaped your lips as you shook your head, holstering the blade against your thigh. “What now, Butcher?” you asked. He stepped closer, scratching his beard, eyes locked on yours. “You ever heard about Soldier Boy?” he rasped. *Who the fuck hasn’t?* “He ain’t dead. Russia. Captive. I need you to help me get him. To kill Homelander.”
