Needing A Leader

A/N

I decided to write more even if I haven't gotten reviews for it yet.


The emerald skinned male smiled worriedly as he approached Shrek's swamp and hoped they could help as they were fellow ogres and friends but heard Cookie talking feverishly about dancing and food.

A sad smile crossed his face hearing that but had missed her since he left but shook those thoughts aside as he saw Shrek stare at Brogan worried seeing Cookie with him.

"She needs help.

I think she's really ill." Brogan said.

The other ogre male understood his friend's worry as he let him into the swamp house but Brogan was very quiet even though they were friends now but he knew he cared about Cookie.

"We should get Merlin.

He can tell us what's making her ill.

Stay here, okay?

I'll be right back." he said.

Brogan nodded as Shrek left.

He then saw Cookie moan.

"Don't worry Cookie.

I never should've left.

I want to take care of you." he said.

He blushed after holding her hand.

"Uncle Brogan you okay?

You look sad." Demi said.

He then saw the triplets.

"Hey guys.

I'm sad because of Cookie.

She's ill." he answered.

"Maybe you should tell Daddy.

He could help." Spam answered.

"He is.

He's getting Merlin." he answered.

He then saw Cookie cough slightly.

"Don't worry, I'll rescue you." he said.

"Uncle Brogan do you miss being a fighter?

Like helping people?" Meatballs asked.

"Yes I do.

Once upon a time Team Ogre was awesome.

We fought for freedom for ogres.

We also helped bring humans and ogres together." he answered.

"What happened?

Why aren't they awesome?" Spam asked.

"Because their wise and humble leader was forced out by another member who was always wanting to be second in command but he hurt him by promising to not hurt those he cared about but it made him sad but he still wanted to help but decided to go into hiding." he told them.

"That seems sad." Demi said.

"Yes it is." he replied sighing.

He then heard moaning as he looked at Cookie.

"Is she your girlfriend?" Spam asked.

Brogan blushed hearing that.

"S-She's a good friend of mine.

We've known each other since we were little." he answered.

He then saw Shrek return with Merlin.

Brogan watched as the sorceror examined Cookie.

"She has an unknown virus but I think she'll get over it.

She needs medicine and rest." he answered.

Brogan nodded as they saw him leave,

'"Shouldn't you be getting back?

To the movement?" he asked.

Brogan shook his head.

"I can't go back." he said sadly.

Shrek was confused.

"Why can't you?" he asked.

"It's a long story." he answered...


Gaimrac was wondering why Cookie hadn't returned yet from wherever she was but had a feeling she wasn't coming back but saw Helmet Head and Balzac looking worried as they and the others missed Cookie but missed Brogan's leadership but secretly hated Gaimrac's leadership but there was nothing they could do but sighed but they decided to leave later that night.

Gaimrac then went to train and was destroying memories of Brogan and Fiona as the members weren't allowed to speak of either of them but he began to think that Brogan was out there probably trying to bring the movement back.

He hoped that wouldn't happen.


Shrek was stunned hearing from Brogan about the mess Gaimrac had left Team Ogre in but wondered why he hadn't gone back and taken it from Gaimrac but Brogan was explaining that his friends there would be hurt if he tried but Shrek understood as he decided that Brogan and Cookie should stay but he hoped that things would be okay.

He then saw Cookie's eyes open.

"Brogi..." he heard her say.

Shrek saw Brogan blush hearing his nick name.

"I didn't know she nick named you." he said.

"She did that when we were little." he answered.

He then came over to Cookie and knelt by her side.

"Hey Cookie.

It's okay.

I was worried about you." he told her.

"R-Really?" she asked him.

He nodded.

"Yes I was worried.

I have since I was made to leave." he answered her.

"I-I know you... cared about... me.

I've missed you." she told him.

"I missed you too." he said hugging her.

Fiona smiled seeing them.

"It's so cute." she said.

Brogan was putting a cold compress on Cookie's forehead.

"W-Where's my hat?" she asked.

"Ssh don't worry.

I'll get it back for ya." Brogan answered.

He then watched her eyes close.

He then left her to help Fiona with dinner.


Later that night, Brogan couldn't sleep as memories of that day when Gaimrac had taken over and kicked him out of the movement which had made him sad but hadn't told anybody but was worried about Cookie.

He then left the spare room to go check on her.

He found her in the living room asleep on the couch.

She looked so cute sleeping peacefully.

"I'm sorry this is happening.

Back then it was about helping others like us.

What has Gaimrac done?" he thought.

He then heard her cough.

He sighed knowing he wouldn't get any sleep tonight.
