So today we got two more pairings! Demo and Cody and Mikey and Pyro.
Now the main reason why I'm trying to get all these updates in is because I really want to get to the battle chapter possibly before Thanksgiving Break (which starts on Wednesday) and I won't be able to write anything while I'm in Florida.
Anyways, disclaimer time!
I do not own Team Fortress 2, but it would be soooo awesome if I did!
Chapter 4
"Wakey wakey!" a voice taunted. Before Cody could react a bucket full of bone chilling cold water was dumped all over him. His eyes immediately shot open and he jumped out of bed to see Mikey holding an empty gray bucket.
"What the hell Mikey?!" he yelled, shaking his hands to shake the dripping water off.
"Well, that is the best way to wake someone up," Mikey replied, placing the bucket by his bed.
"But that was my only set of clothes!" Cody said, running his hands through his wet brown shaggy hair.
"They'll dry."
Cody's fists balled, ready to punch him but he resisted the impulse. He inhaled deeply only to meet the smell of bacon cooking. "Do you smell that?" he asked.
"Yeah. I think Pyro is making breakfast, c'mon!" Mikey said, leaving Cody to himself.
After taking one last look around the room (which was already messy) Cody followed Mikey out the door and into the long hallway. The long hallway led to all the other teen's rooms. A couple doors down Cody watched as Dirk and Tyler left their room. He waved to them. "Mornin' guys!" he called.
"Good morning to you too," Tyler said, with his hands in his pockets. "Why are you wet?"
"Mikey dumped cold water all over me to wake me up," Cody explained.
Dirk chuckled. "Well that's an efficient way of waking someone up."
"Did you have any trouble waking up?" Cody asked the pair as they started walking towards the kitchen.
Tyler shook his head. "Not really. Neither did Dirk," he replied.
When they got to the kitchen, they found Pyro handing Mikey a plate of bacon of eggs. He handed a plate to Cody before saying, "Hudda hudda hmmf!" to Dirk and Tyler.
"He said he'll have more for you in a couple minutes," Mikey translated before sitting down at the small kitchen table to eat his breakfast. Cody joined him in the chair across from him.
"Its fine, I'll eat later," Tyler said.
"Same for me. C'mon Tyler, lets go find Scout and Heavy," Dirk replied before leaving.
"Later guys," Tyler called before following Dirk out the door.
Cody didn't reply as he shoved a forkful of eggs into this mouth and felt his tastebuds explode with flavor.
A couple minutes later, a sleepy looking Claire walked into the room, yawning and a fully awake Riley followed her in. "Morning Pyro," she said with a yawn. "Got any food left?"
"Hudda hmmf?" Pyro asked.
Claire looked over at Mikey. "What did he say?"
"Asked if you wanted some bacon," Mikey replied before shoveling a piece of bacon in his mouth.
"Yeah I would, thanks Pyro," Claire replied before leaning against the wall and closing her eyes for a minute.
Sniper walked into the room and noticed Claire. "I assume you're not a morning person?"
Claire sleepily rubbed her eyes. "No I am most definetly not."
As Claire and Sniper continued to make plans to meet up after Claire was done eating, Cody kept eating his own breakfast.
He was almost done eating when he heard a familiar voice say, "Where's me young lad?"
Riley pointed to him and Demoman walked over to him. "You done eatin yet lad?"
"I am now," Cody replied after finishing his last bite of eggs.
"Then let's go. Need to get ya prepared for the battle tomorrow."
"Okay. See ya Claire, bye Riley," Cody called before following Demo out of the room. Demoman led him outside into the bright sunlight and to a large empty field.
"So you said ya had a little experience with sticky bombs, right?" Demo asked.
Cody nodded and said. "Yeah! Its an easy mechanism to use and I used it all the time in-" He stopped himself before he started talking about the actual video game of Team Fortress 2, remembering the warning that Claire had given him while she was cleaning RED's kitchen.
"Don't you dare even mention that this whole universe is actually a video game to any of the classes, ya hear me? Don't hint at it, don't whisper it, don't talk about it around them. They can't find out!"
"back at home," Cody finished.
Demoman handed him the Sticky Bomber and showed him how to shoot sticky bombs. Afterwards, he sat down, pulled out a bottle of Scrumpy and drank it while he watched Cody practice.
Mikey watched as the two girls hurried out of the kitchen. He was wondering why they didn't want to stay and watch the fantastic show.
Pyro showed Mikey how to use his Backburner, and in the process of practicing, almost burned down the kitchen table. Thankfully the team always had buckets full of water nearby, in case of Pyro emergencies.
Mikey was beginning to like being here.
Alright guys, I'm sorry Mikey's part was so short, but you'll get to see his personality come into play later on.
Next chapter will come sooN!
And don't forget to review. It encourages me. ^^
See ya until next time!
