A/N: Ditto.

"DO YOU THINK I FEEL PAIN? I NEVER FEEL PAIN!" shouted Soldier.

Earlier, Soldier challenged Stella in a wrestling match, she initially ignored the repeated request to tussle with the American, but after a while the other mercs were getting annoyed with Soldier's yelling and convinced her to wrestle with him in the living room.

Right now, she had Soldier in a very painful position. And she was getting concerned for his well-being.

"Ah, I think you should tap out Soldier," she said. "I don't think your arm is supposed to bend that way, and neither is your leg,"

"PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BO-" before he could finish a noticeable cracking sound was heard. Soldier blinked before looking at Stella.

His scream could be heard throughout the entire base.

Meanwhile, Debbie had taken K-9 to Engi to find out more about the dog's origins.

"So you're telling me you just "found" him in here?" he asked.

"Apparently," said Debbie. "He was sleeping near Stella, she claims she never saw him when she fell asleep,"

"Well…" said Engi as he petted K-9, who got up from lying down and sat down, and started panting.

As K-9 started panting, Engi noticed something strange about the dog, something about his teeth.

"What in tarnation is this?" he said as he grabbed K-9's muzzle and opened his mouth.

"Found something?" asked Debbie as she got closer.

"Yeah, his teeth look," he said as he indicated to her. "They don't look like normal teeth,"

When Debbie looked, she saw that K-9's teeth was indeed, not normal.

They were made of metal.

Each tooth in K-9's mouth was made of a metal that neither Engi nor Debbie recognized.

"Um, that is not something you see everyday," Debbie said. "I am so glad he did not bite Scout,"

"He what now?"

"Long story short, Scout has to keep his mouth shut sometimes,"

Engi nodded before turning his attention back to K-9, but before he could a scream pierced the silence in the base.

"Wonder who that could be?" she asked before her Pip-Boy pinged. "Oh, it's Soldier, you two have fun now!" she said before hurrying out of the room.

"What else surprises do you have?" Engi thought as he continued to rub K-9, who barked as if responding to Engi's question.

Back in the living room

Debbie arrived in the living room to find most of the other mercs gathered around a broken Soldier.

"What happened now?" she asked.

"Schweinhund," muttered Medic as he got up from examining Soldier and turning to Debbie. "Herr Soldier wanted to wrestle with your sister, Stella, she didn't want to but Soldier insisted that she should wrestle with him, so she did and now, ah, I believe he has multiple fractures in many, many places in his body,"

"Dumbass!" shouted Scout.

"I WILL RIP YOUR THROAT OUT AND STRANGLE YOU WITH YOUR OWN TRAINING BRA!" shouted Soldier, who tried to get up to attack Scout.

Medic, acting quickly so that Soldier wouldn't hurt himself more, pulled out a needle and stuck it in Soldier. The patriot quickly flopped down and fell asleep. Medic glared at Scout before turning to Stella.

"Will you help me carry Soldier to the Med-Bay so I can see which bones he broke?"

"Course Medic," she said before gently picking up the sleeping Soldier and following Medic out of the room.

"Never saw someone fight off Soldier that easily," said Sniper as he went over to the couch and picked up a newspaper. "Buckethead should've stopped within the first seconds,"

"So I've heard we have a new pet around here?" said Spy and he got out a new cigarette. "A dog I presume?"

"Ah dog?" asked Demo. "Ah yes, I remember my first dog…" he continued to rant on while Spy and Debbie ignored the Scot.

"Yup," said Debbie. "He's with Engi right now, but I have a feeling he's not just a normal dog,"

"Why is that?"

"One, his eyes are red, and two, his teeth are made up from a type of metal that neither me or Engi can identify,"

Spy was about to say something when a commotion stopped him. Debbie looked behind to find K-9 being chased by Scout. The dog had a baseball in its mouth.

"GIVE ME BACK MY BALL!" shouted Scout.

The two watched the Bostonian and the canine run around a table for about a minute before K-9 doubled back and rammed Scout in the stomach, causing him to fall to the ground. K-9 then ran out of the room.

"I swear," Scout said in-between breaths. "That mutt is going to be the end of me,"

Meanwhile

Suggested by their older sister, Stella, the Teleporter twins were currently hanging out with Pyro in his/her/its room. Even though they knew Pyro was essential to their survival when they were buildings, the twins were still a little uneasy being around the pyrotechnic. Pyro was currently lying on the ground drawing something with crayons while the twins looked around his/her/its room.

"Have any idea what Pyro's gender is?" Tia silently asked her twin.

"No," replied Tai. "There are so many things in here that can point to both genders,"

Pyro's room had stuff that could point him/her/it to each gender. For an example, in a drawer had multiple lighters on one side; while on the other side it had party supplies. Pyro's bed had multiple plush figures, including a plush unicorn. But under the bed, had a spare flamethrower, and a shotgun.

"Hudda hu!" said Pyro as he/she/it held up the drawing so the two could see.

"Whatcha draw Pyro…oh my," said Tai as she looked at it.

"Hm?" said Tia as she dropped a plushie when she turned to look at the drawing. "Oh, ah, nice drawing Pyro,"

Through Pyro's eyes, the drawing had multiple rainbows, cats, and a unicorn dancing around a BLU Spy.

But in reality, it was a crude drawing of the BLU Spy with orange scribbled all over it.

"I'm starting to wonder how Pyro got on the team," said Tia.

Meanwhile

After finding the extent of Soldier's injuries and treating them with the Medi-Gun, Medic forced Soldier to stay in the Med-Bay for the rest of the day so he can monitor the American, much to Soldier dismay.

"I CANNOT BE LYING HERE WHEN THERE IS A WAR GOING ON!" he shouted.

"Soldier," said Medic. "Today's a ceasefire day, as well as tomorrow, you are not going to miss any action right now,"

"PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY!"

"Isn't that what you said just before you broke half of your bones?" asked Stella.

Soldier was about to respond with more yelling when he was jabbed with another needle by Medic.

Medic sighed. "Why do I feel that I'm the only sane one around here sometimes?"

Later that night

BLU Spy waited anxiously. He was standing in the area, basically the middle of nowhere, where he and the RED Spy would meet and discuss certain topics going on between both sides. He hoped to get more information about the women that they fought yesterday.

"If you're here because of those women, then you're just wasting your time," said Spy as he uncloaked behind BLU Spy.

"Who got the idea of hiring more mercs?" BLU Spy asked.

Spy knew he had to be careful of what he said to his BLU counterpart; one wrong move and the whole truth can come out.

"No one, they came to us," said Spy. "They wanted to see some action so we simply contacted Ms. Pauling and she got the paperwork done,"

"If so…" started BLU Spy. "Then how come Ms. Pauling didn't recognize any of them when I show her pictures of them, hmm?"

Spy started to sweat internally. He underestimated on how much BLU really wanted to beat them. He tried to think up another convincing lie.

"I'm wai-" before BLU spy could say more a blur came out of nowhere and knocked him to the ground. BLU Spy was stunned for a bit before he saw a whole lot of teeth in front of his face.

"Oh merde,"

Earlier

K-9 awoke to something. Many of the RED's had left to sleep and were currently snoring up a storm, he too went to bed early as well, but his highly sensitive ears picked up a door closing.

Acting on instinct, he jumped down from Engi's bed and headed into the hallway to investigate. He saw Spy casually walking out a door in the kitchen that led to outside. Wondering why Spy would go outside this late, he decided to follow the Frenchman.

As soon as K-9 saw the BLU Spy, however, his entire vision turned red. He started to grow in size until he was about twice his normal size, his claws sharpened, and his eyes turned completely red.

This "new" version of K-9 backed up before running forward, and launching himself at BLU Spy. BLU Spy couldn't say anything else as he was ripped to shreds within seconds.

Spy was at a loss of words at the sight. He backed up slowly before cloaking himself and running back to RED HQ. He didn't want to know what the beast will after it was finished with the BLU Spy.

After K-9 ate BLU Spy's liver, he shrunk back down to his normal state. He was confused why he was sitting in a pile of blood and body parts, and wondered where Spy could've gone. He decided to head back to Engi and get some sleep.

A/N: So yeah, K-9 has like werewolf/Hulk powers. Don't judge, I'm writing this at almost midnight. Shoutout to Blackcharizard62 and LuigiG54 for favoriting the story.
