It was a rainy, stormy night. Lightings erupted everywhere. Suddenly, two lights appeared out of the dark. A blue large pickup truck was moving through the gloomy rain. It had six seats in the back and three in the front.
"Bloody hell, this stupid damn storm makes me miss Sawmill."
"Shut it, Bushman. Are you a mercenary or a little kid?"
"What? Since when complaining about a storm is being a little kid?"
Spy and Sniper were arguing in the coverless backseats, wet to their bones.
"We've faced worse than storms, the least you could do is shut up!" Spy said.
"Well for now we ain't facing stuff worse than storms, so I have the right to complain as much as - "
"How about you two dumbasses shut the hell up and look at this!" Engineer yelled.
A destroyed, burnt '78 Camaro was lying in a trench to the left of the road. The mercenaries stopped to inspect it.
"Hmm, interesting vat happent zu it." Medic wondered.
"Seems like it exploded recently, very recently." Engineer noted.
"Hmph, I don't like the look of this. Hard-hat, how close are we to this camp?" Scout asked.
"Well… we are basically there. If I'm not wrong, the camp should be right to our..."
ROAAAAR!
All the mercenaries jumped up in fear, even the brave and strong ones. A giant black figure, the size of two heavies on top of each other, was standing far to their right. Suddenly, a golden dust cloud about the size of a man dissolved next to it.
"NOOOOO!" A shout was heard.
"I dunno' 'bout you, folks, but it seems like someone's in trouble!" Engineer said.
The mercenaries rushed to the battle, but stopped when they saw their enemy. A tall, giant man with hair all over his body and a head of an ox was standing in front of them. He sniffed a small boy who was lying unconscious next to him. The boy had goat legs and small horns on his head. Another boy, a fully human one, was standing a few feet away from the two animal-like creatures, looking worried and confused.
The mercenaries froze on their tracks. The behemoth roared at them and that got them out of their shock.
"Let's get him!" Scout yelled as they charged at the monster.
The Minotaur punched with both hands and sent Scout and Spy flying. Pyro pulled out his flare gun but the Minotaur grabbed him by the leg and threw him hard on a tree. Demoman panicked and started shooting aimlessly at the monster with him grenade launcher.
None of the bombs hit the mark but one exploded near it, sending a few shards on its body. The Minotaur roared in pain and charged at Demoman with its head aimed at him. The frightened alcoholic tried to reload but was pushed away and sent flying by the monster's head.
Engineer hurriedly built a mini-sentry that started shooting at the Minotaur but the small rounds only made him angrier. With one small stomp it destroyed the sentry and kicked Engineer, sending him flying too.
Sniper, who couldn't get a clear shot on the monster, ran away when he saw his SMG is doing nothing. The Minotaur punched Soldier before he could react, sending him to the ground so hard it cracked. The monster was about to go after Sniper but then Heavy joined the action and started spinning Sasha and firing at the monster, sending it to hide behind a tree.
Medic came to Heavy's aid and started healing him with the Medigun. Heavy started toward where the Minotaur was hiding, but it lounged at him, dropping Sasha to the ground. Medic tried to pull out his Ubersaw but the Minotaur punched him against the tree.
The Minotaur stood above Heavy, panting angrily. Heavy was too shocked to move, seeing how his team was defeated so easily, so fast. Plus, his arm was broken. The Minotaur leaned on Heavy's body, reaching for his head.
"Well, I suppose this is where our little adventure ends, before it even started…" Heavy thought to himself. He closed his eyes and waited for the unavoidable end…
