Team Fortress 2 belongs to Valve. This is a translation from my original fanfic, "Tras la Máscara", which is written in Spanish. My OC (Hacker) belongs to me.

"Well, let me explain it. Erm…"

It all started one day as the start of the sales of Steam. Scout batted like a Manchester United hooligan, Soldier blown whatever who appeared in his sight and the screams and whistling of bullets filled the air with a delicious melody. That Pyro was ahead, burning everything (and everyone) to all who stood in his way, but Sniper was there to stop him. After the shot, the BLU Spy thought he had a free hand to sneak into RED's territory, but unfortunately, the Australian's shot failed when the RED Scout shattered his ribs and nose. Sniper's shot hit the "creature", because it could not be called by another name, injuring him in the right calf, falling to the ground and writhing in pain.

Spy seized the moment to use his Disguise Kit and tried to disguise like Pyro, but suddenly, the arsonist pulled a Fire Axe, and still on the floor, hit his ankle with it. It was like "cutting" a lamppost in GTA, with the difference that the pain was indescribable: a wobble and a fall (Fucking lampposts!, said no GTA player ever). The pain was so raw, that seemed like a Union Pacific freight train passed over the affected limb. The French began to insult him with his entire repertoire in their own language, and the other, unintelligible cries, and so was a long time until he decided to settle down to see that the pain would not go away. Pyro needed Medic's help, but he wasn't there.

Pyro muttered something that Spy didn't understood, while crawling on the floor, trying to catch his flamethrower. But he couldn't, which caused a long laughter from the French.

-Hurts, fill de pute? Now you know how your victims feel when you burn them…

Although he doubted that he understood French, Spy was sure Pyro got the message. He saw forgetting the flamethrower and trying to catch up, which hurt so heinous. At least he had left the two arms, but Spy stepped forward, crushing his chest and trying to drown him. He punched him in the mask, avenging his teammates swept by the RED Pyro and himself.

Then, Spy pulled out his knife and explored every centimetre of Pyro's mask.

-Finally… You're mine… I'll throw you out everything you got before cutting your head… It will be magnificent, you fool…

Pyro tried to resist, but he ended giving up and Spy and pulled the mask out.

…Sweet Jesus, Spy didn't expect that…

…Pyro wasn't a man…

…IT WAS A GIRL.

Spy couldn't believe it: A pyromaniac girl? Really she could do such atrocities? He was shocked, after years of thinking that the thing behind the mask was a man and eventually turned out to be a girl. Seeing her suit and face, she had a more feminine than masculine body since she discovered that the suit's stuff was filled with fire protection, and no fat. Still, the way she killed BLU mercenaries was... childish, so to speak. She was younger than Scout, and who looked no older than she. Her chestnut hair was cut garçon, very comfortable but unflattering. As always she had the mask on, she was crushed and soaked in sweat. Huge brown eyes were fixed on him, confusion and fear of a cornered deer. It was also very pale, namely how long ago the sun didn't touch her!

Spy was very confused, but Pyro was able to react and managed to pull the knife aside. Struggling, Spy used his free hand to smother the neck. Just he had put his hand on him when the arsonist stuck a "bash" between the eyes.

-Ang! Salope!

She took advantage of the moment. Since he had ripped her mask, she grabbed Spy's mask holes and pulled them to one side. A few hairs peeked out from under the mask of the spy, whom couldn't see anything. Pyro managed to throw aside and get up, groaning from the pain of their wounded members. Before Spy could use his knife, he took it from her hands and pressed the blade on his neck. His eyes were wide, it was obvious that the woman had left him the pot, he already knew before. He wanted to get up but she pitched his healthy knee on his chest but not on his pubis. Spy stirred, but vain because she was heavier than him.

-You're useless! Scum! I will kill you! Do you think I can't harm women? I will! You're a little piece of s…

But Spy was assaulted by a third person, who aimed him with a Desert Eagle in the head. A few seconds later, an arm completely smothered him.

-Try to touch again mah' friend, and I'll kill you.

Pyro recognised that voice, which was one of his teammates in RED. It was Hacker, the tenth class.

Hacker didn't note that the pyromaniac wasn't wearing the mask because he was staring at Spy, who was drowning.

-Spy, you fuckin' sneaker… You've tried to kill my friend, right? Well. If I see you again attacking my friend, I swear I will unscrew your head and shit down your neck! Got it, Frenchie?-Said Hacker.

Then, the French ran out of air and fell unconscious to the ground. Hacker dropped it on the floor after taking his pulse and put it away. He stood up and told Pyro, as he looked up at her:

-All right, problem solved. Hope you're…

He left half the sentence seeing her without the mask. Hacker took off his cap and scarf covering his nose and mouth as a sign of respect. He was very surprised to see her without the mask, which left him flabbergasted. He couldn't even think or speak.

-Hey…

-Py? Is this your real face?-Asked him.

-Y-yes… Don't worry, this is me.

Hacker couldn't believe it. His best friend... Was a girl? He tried to calm down, but it was almost impossible to do anything. His heart was beating too fast, so that seemed like a C4 to explode.

He took advantage to listen. There was no one nearby. Had the fight taken to another site? Were they three (or two and a half) the only ones still alive? He wanted to hear that old decrepit announcing the end of the battle, or someone was going to see what happened. But no one appeared around. Excellent. Just great.

Hacker approached Pyro, and helped her to rest. And then they looked one at each other in the eye.

-Wow, you're so cute.-Said Hacker.

-Really? Thanks!

"Poor girl... I think she needs as much love as I do." He thought, smiling.

-Hey, I need a hug. Want one?-Asked her, opening her arms.

-Ok!- And Hacker hugged Pyro. The pyromaniac squeezed him like a bear, but the hacker didn't care because it was one of the few mercenaries who had travelled to Pyroland with her and knew exactly how she behaved. When they released the hug, Hacker said:

-Well, um... It's the first time I see your face, and really, I'm very surprised. But I would be fine, and you, too, that this was between you and me. OK?-Pyro nodded.-Bien. Erm... While Spy is on the ground, I'll take you with Medic to see that wound. And in case... -Hacker grabs Pyro's mask, still good-Put this on before reaching our base. I don't want anyone to see your face, because everyone would like whores goats. And by the way, I can't take the flamethrower, but I can give you another one I crafted in a boring afternoon. Are we colleagues, right?-

-Mmmhmm. You're my best friend.

-Right, I won't leave you. I promise.

-Really?

-Yeah…

The two joined hands and left the scene, leaving unconscious and hoping that no one, including the BLU Spy, know that behind the mask was someone. Pyro was happy about Hacker, who promised her that they would be friends forever.

Before finishing this, I'll leave you my OC's brief.
