What did she say? This eye candy of woman, this small lovely flower was really the red Pyrotechnics? The most feared team member amongst the Reds was a woman behind the soulless lenses of the gas mask. This was something that completely took Scout into a loop, he couldn't comprehend this idea at all. Yet, at the same time it made sense. Ms. Pauling and the Administrator were both perfect examples of powerful woman. Heck even his Ma is the only person that he'd get down on his knees for to beg for forgiveness due to his mistake, not that he does but still. She was one terrifying lady and Scout loves her with all of his heart.

"Well there's another terrifying lady to put on the list now."

"Aww, I'm not all bad. I just enjoy burning things to the ground." Pyro stated as her eyes widened slightly making her seem slightly insane. Medic sighed as he placed his hand on his forehead while he used the other to hold the jar containing the bread mutant.

"Liebe, perhaps expressing you infatuation for flames engulfing flesh and objects should be held for the opposing team?" Medic stated as Pyro looked up at the tall German. She pouted her lips as she stomped her foot on the ground.

"I always do! Besides I would never hurt my teammates, unless they do something stupid to get them back on track of course." Pyro stated as she turned her body from the tall German who chuckled at the short woman.

"But Pyro you hit me all the time." Scout stated as Pyro looked back at the agile man and gave him a smug smirk.

"Well that should be self explanatory, Scout."

"Excuse me?! I happen to pull my weight for the team perfectly! If anyone should get the beating it should be Soldier, or even better Spy!' Pyro rolled her eyes as she walked to Scout and poked his nose smiling playfully. He felt his cheeks turn red. What did he expect it was a woman that was really close for comfort. Medic too wasn't enjoying how Pyro was close to Scout. He even squeezed the jar to the point it cracked. The bread mutant was actually trembling in fear.

"Listen Scout, I know your fast, I know your one of the best combatants in the team-"

"As I a- OW! What the hell?!" Pyro thumped his nose when she flicked her fingers on it. He covered his nose as he looked at the short woman.

"-I'm not done. Your also the most irrational in the team, you attempt so hard to put the team on your back that you get yourself killed the most. Your death count actually beats Soldier's death count by a landslide. And Soldier is much more of a loose canon then yourself. Maybe if you relied on the team more you wouldn't die so quickly. And maybe I wouldn't hit you as much." Pyro stated as she gave Scout a sweet smile. Scout then slowly moved his hands from his now slightly bruised nose as he pouted and looked away from Pyro felling embarrassed from her supporting words.

"Fine... I'll give it a try..." Pyro squealed happily as she jumped up and down with glee.

"Good man! Now I'm sorry to have to kick you out but I have to deal with Medic and my little Brian." Pyro stated making Scout look at her in confusion. She backed away from Scout and turned towards Medic.

"Brian?"

"The Bread mutant." Medic replied as he held the now cracked jar. Scout rose an eyebrow unsure as to why they still had that thing at all. But then again Medic has a knack for experiments so it might be a test subject and Pyro is helping. Scout shrugged as he left the infirmary feeling much more relieved to have that mystery solved. Pyro was a girl all this time go figure. He froze in place and stood in the middle of the hall looking down in the ground. Was it true? Was he actions for wanting to do everything himself really affecting the team? Or was it just affecting his ability to be useful? He needed to ask someone who was smart. Definitely no Spy though, that guy can go f*ck himself. He'll ask Engineer his impute on the team is much more reliable then the French man.

Pyro sighed in relief when Scout finally left as she turned to Medic who was holding the jar and walked up to him. She placed her hand on his cheek seeing him much more frustrated and annoyed and it wasn't Brian this time.

"What's wrong, Wölfchen?" Pyro stated as she looked up at the German man who placed the jar down on the operation table as he placed his hand on her smaller one and smiled softly.

"Nothing Hase. I'm just a bit frustrated is all."

"Was it when Scout came in? Or was it because of how close I was to him?" Pyro asked making Medic sigh in defeat as she giggled. She grabbed her collar and pulled him down towards her as she gave him a peck on his lips making him turn red.

"Wölfchen, ich liebe dich und nur dich. Besides your too much of beast in bed to let you go~" Medic felt his eyes widen in shock at how blunt Pyro was being. But dear god was listening to her speak in his native tongue a major turn on for the man, even when she was lacking in the accent. He leaned down and captured her lips into his own feeling her smile against his lips making him smile as well. Until there was a bite on his arm that pulled him away.

"HURENSOHN!"

"BRIAN NO! YOU DON'T BITE WÖLFCHEN!" Pyro shouted as she pulled the bread mutant off Medic who angrily looked at the creature. Brian was cuddling with Pyro and licking her face like a puppy making her giggle. The mutant bread loaf absolutely loved her to death. But it despised all of the other guys even Medic.

"Oh I can never be mad at you my little Bread loaf~" Pyro squealed as she hugged the bread loaf that wagged it's behind like a dog. She even gave it an Eskimo kiss she turned so she was hugging it from his back while it growled at Medic as he angrily looked at the creature.

"I only tolerate you because Pyro loves you so much. If she didn't I would have had Demoman blow you up to smithereens." Medic whispered darkly.

Scout found Engi in his work shop working on teleporters and sentry guns. He walked in and looked around the place it was filled with tools and computers to help him program and build the machines. Scout heard a cock of the gun and held his hands up as the barrel of the shotgun was pointed at him.

"The hell Scout. You know better then to sneak up on me while I'm doin' my tinkering. I could of blown you brains to the west side of the cosmos!" Engi exclaimed as he put down his gun and gave friendly smile.

"Now what can I do for you?"

"Right, I was wondering how is the team doing like our overall status." Scout asked, Engi rose an eyebrow in disbelief at the city town boy asking him such a thing.

"That's weird, normally you only ask about your over status. Why the change of heart?" Engi asked as he got his mobile chair and pushed himself towards his desk as he pulled up the statistics.

"Pyro thinks that I'm so much of a loose cannon that I'm much worse then Soldier. I mean can you believe that? The nerve of that girl!" Engi chuckled as he moved to the side to let Scout see the Statistics.

"True she maybe a brick shy from the load but she's most definitely got some snap in her garters. She's just under Spy in her statistics and he's in the lead in least amount of deaths, most kills and most success in capturing the intelligence. Your dead last along side Soldier with deaths being you major downfall."

"Wait... What?!" Scout run towards Engi and looked at the monitor in fury. How could this be? Some one as amazing as himself beaten by that shouting idiot that didn't know the difference between Art of War and Noah's Arc is actually doing a better job? The hell? Is the world coming to an end? No it's not because Medic and Engineer would have warn them by now. Was it a dream? Scout slapped himself super hard and grimaced at the pain he inflicted on himself. He even forgot that Pyro had hurt him just prior to him arriving here. So he wasn't dreaming. In fact he was in the midst of reality at this very moment in cease fire day. He was doing something wrong that was making him constantly die, thus is unable to get a proper kill in on the opposing team. Then it struck him like boulder what Pyro had told him

...Maybe if you relied on the team more you wouldn't die so quickly...

Scout considered himself a one man army incapable of failure with his amazing abilities. He didn't like relying on others because that's how he was raised. Working with others is just going to bring him down to failure. But then again The tag teaming between Heavy and Medic when Heavy is Übercharged is amazing, their practically unstoppable and they work as a team. But then there are the loners like Spy and Sniper they prefer to do their own thing rather then communicate with the others. But then again they wouldn't be able to do their job if they didn't trust that the others would do fine on their own. So what was it that he was lacking? What was making him the weak point of their team?

"I don't get it what am I doing wrong?... I don't understand..." Scout growled as Engi sighed as he pat Scout on the shoulder.

"Hot will cool if greedy will let it, Scout. Try and figure out but don't rush it. There's always room for improvement."
