Sup yo, people! This is my first fan fiction, so don't judge me! Enjoy!
I never knew this would get this crazy.
I was just playing one of my favorite video games when I heard a knock on my door. I didn't know who was standing outside my room, so I called out: "Who's there? It's open!" I said. Obviously, I said in my head. I doubted that this was my dad wanting to yell at me for somehow breaking into his computer and downloading some games I had on my own laptop.
The person who was knocking on the door was a really pretty girl, or should I say, woman. She was wearing glasses, a purple jacket with a white shirt underneath and a purple skirt to her knees. He had green eyes and black hair. I had no idea what to say, so I said, "I'm Mathew. What's your name?"
"You can call me Miss Pauling. Okay, listen. You have been hired to be a mercenary for Redmond Mann, and as I saw it in the resume, you can run 10 miles per hour, you are good at baseball, and you can do everything much faster than anybody in your college."
"That's right, Miss Pauling!"
The next thing that happened was that I was packing my bags for the trip, which I thought was going to be pretty long. When Miss Pauling saw what was going on, she stopped me in my tracks. "What do you think you're doing, Scout? You don't need your bags. The others already know that you're coming."
"Whoa, what did ya say? Who are da others?" Questions were flying out of my mouth, and Miss Pauling couldn't answer all of them. She just replied, "You'll find out when you get there."
The only things I took were my baseball bat, RED SOX poster, and my laptop. I guess I will get everything else when we get there.
We went to the airport, bought our tickets for a plane heading to New Mexico, and we went to Gate 13, which according to me, it is ever empty. The guards looked at our tickets with disgust, which was fine to us. As we went to the airplane, a person greeted us.
"I knew that it wouldn't take long for you to come back, Miss Pauling. Oh, hello there, young man! I am going to be your pilot today. Please come in and get seated." He seemed like a guy who goes to the casino a lot. The airplane could seat only 4 passengers, and there was a co-pilot on the right, so me and Miss Pauling had to sit in the back.
The flight took like 5 hours. When we got to New Mexico, we landed on near a city. Miss Pauling told me that it was named TueFort. That was fine with me. It's just that there were eight people to greet me. All of them wore red outfits, and were different heights. Miss Pauling introduced me to every one of them. There was Soldier, Pyro, Demoman (I'm calling him Demo), Heavy Weapons Guy (or just Heavy), Engineer (Engi), Medic, Sniper and Spy (the spook). Miss Pauling told me that I'm going to be the Scout. She showed me the mess hall, the training area, and the cabins (there were a lot of them).
I kinda liked this place. I had my own room, had some different people to talk to (they were my teammates), and test out my weapons. Miss Pauling took my baseball bat and gave it to Engi to make some improvements. To not make me disappointed, Engi gave me a different baseball bat that was kinda better than my own bat. It was metal and had my team's emblem: a red bomb with the word RED. Miss Pauling told me it stood for "Reliable Excavation Demolition." She said that the BLU team was our enemy, and we had to fight them every day. Also, she told me about the respawn system. Like, if you die during a mission, you would reappear in the respawn room. That sounded pretty cool, but I still had one question.
"Yo Miss Pauling, I still got one question."
"Yes?"
"What's the point of all this war thing?"
"I will tell you, buddy!" Engi came up to me. "Lets go to my dorm."
We got to his room and I couldn't see any walls. The walls were covered in blueprints of random things. "This whole war started when Redmond Mann and Blutarch Mann started fighting over this piece of land and each hired some mercenaries like us. This war is going on now. That's why you were hired to be our Scout."
"For how long dis war is goin on?"
"Um... About one hundred years."
That really pissed me off. How come this war never ends? Are Redmond and Blutarch still alive or something?
HAHAHAHA CLIFHANGER! Next chapter coming soon!
