That Can't Be Good
The Administrator watched as the mercenaries fought over the intelligence. It was the first battle since the Red Scout's littleā¦rebellion. The BLU team was eagerly fighting again. The RED teamā¦
"The enemy has captured our intelligence!" RED was having some issues, mainly the Engineer. He hadn't quite gotten used to his new hand. If he kept that up, she would be having words with him.
She turned her attention back to the RED Scout. Scout was running, jumping, shooting, and occasionally hitting people over the head. Her performance was more or less unchanged from before her trip to her hometown.
Good. They had a balance to maintain. It was enough knowing that the abilities were there.
The Administrator smirked at that. She'd had Jack Wynard watched since the end of his very brief career as a mercenary, and it was good to know that his adopted daughters shared some of his abilities.
There was a reason she'd ignored that the RED Scout had lied about her age and gender. Having even one person capable of such feats was a huge advantage for her. And if she managed to also acquire any of the RED Scout's sisters, new or old, then so much the better.
She did have plans to see through after all.
AN: Well, that's the end of 'There's Always a Lighthouse', but it's not the end of the story. I'll start posting 'There's Always a Man' tomorrow. It'll follow what Scout did in Rapture. It will be more depressing, but more things will be explained. I hope you guys like it as much as 'There's Always a Lighthouse'. Thanks for sticking around to the halfway point.
