Morning arrived in the form of a cloudy, yet humid day. The BLU Base was incredibly stuffy and it was grating on everybody's nerves. The Spy was the last one up, walking into the Mess Hall. As per usual, she wasn't noticed. Sighing, she grabbed a small amount of rations, picking at them. The guilt was still making her feel sick to her stomach, and as a result she didn't have much of an appetite.
Perhaps if Sniper ate inside with the rest of them Alessandra wouldn't feel so alone. She was invisible to the rest of the team, as she was quiet and didn't bother to speak. While, yes, it had made her nights together with the Scout easier, it still caused painful feelings of loneliness.
Looking at the other team members, she listened in to their talking, wishing she could be included in a small way, though she wouldn't be. None of her teammates liked her, it was a Spy thing. Most Spies, including her, had that aloof personality that made them hard to get along with.
After the meal was over, she followed her teammates to the weaponry, grabbing her butterfly knife, her Ambassador, disguise kit and her Sapper. While she walked to the gates, she noticed, she really didn't want to fight today.
Scouts held grudges, and it was likely Ryan was still upset over her rejection of him. Sighing, she hung her head, hearing the Announcer count down. The moment those gates opened, the other classes ran out, ready to fight tooth and nail, though she, Sniper and Engineer left using a different route, to get into position to fight. The Engineer set up his sentries, and Sniper managed to get into a secluded hiding spot.
Disguising herself as Ryan, Alessandra ran out, gripping her 'bat' tightly in one hand as she sprinted across the turf. While trying to get to the RED Medic to take him down, she didn't expect to feel something metal collide with her skull.
Falling to the ground, her disguise lifting, the Spy winced and rolled over, the back of her mask stained with blood. Ryan stood over her, a look in his blue eyes she'd never seen before.
It was filled with such powerful hate, and at the same time, a tiny spark of hurt was there, only slightly noticeable.
"Watch your back betta next time ya friggen useless imposter!" He snarled then brought the bat down again, crushing Alessandra's skull. He watched the corpse give a twitch before fading off to respawn, his bat still soaked with her blood.
As he stood on the spot, his breathing was a little heavy, his knuckles white from holding the bat so tightly. He sighed and felt his anger still in his chest, like an angry, snarling beast. Running off, he had to go try and do more damage to the BLU offense, not hang around and glare at the blood stain on the ground.
Walking out of respawn with a hell of a headache, Alessandra groaned in pain. She shook her head, trying to get rid of it, when she remembered how angry Leo had been back there. She had really dug herself her own grave with that blunt rejection. She hadnt expected him to be this angry about it.
Cloaking and running off, she made her way to the Sniping Nest that the RED Sniper was hiding in. Sneaking behind him, she raised her knife and brought it down in a wicked stab, stabbing through the delicate spinal cord of the Sniper. The middle aged Australian's body began to fade to the respawn, and she smirked. Her job was done.
Leaving and running off to find the RED Medic, she spotted him in the distance. Smirking, she threw on the disguise of the RED Heavy, making sure to take heavy strides and run slow. She held up 'Sasha' as she cried for Medic, holding a hand over her bicep and feigning wounded.
Sure enough, the German came running over, pointing the Medigun at her and overhealing her.
"Medic, behind you!" She cried, seeing the BLU Demoman smirking at her and taking a swig of Scrumpy. The man whipped around, seeing the cocky Scot. He realized one second too late. A knife was embedded in his back and he fell to the ground, dead.
The disguise lifted, Alessandra with a smirk of approval at the win. She wanted to... Gosh what did the Americans call it? English was such a difficult language.
"Slap my hand!" She said triumphantly, the Demoman looking amused at her lack of skill in English slang and high-fived her, the two quickly running opposite ways as they were spotted by the RED Soldier and, who else, Ryan.
Sprinting across the field, she was tailed by the Scout. She knew he was gaining on her fast, and began to not pay attention as she tried to make herself run faster. Tripping on a rock, Alessandra skidded across the dirt, glad the suit and mask stopped any road rash from appearing, but at the same time dreaded how she knew she'd been caught.
Having been moving at top speed, Leo's foot jammed right into Alessandra's ribs and he fell forwards, colliding with the ground with a large thud. He grunted and rolled over to see the Spy get up on her knees and hold her Ambassador in his face.
"Shoot me!" He snapped, glaring at her. His bat was 3 feet away, and he didn't bother pulling out a gun. Alessandra's eyes showed hesitation, he could tell. It showed in her eyes.
"I said, shoot me!" He ordered, glaring at her with all the hate he had inside. Her brow furrowed, and she looked at her gun, but in the end, just sighed and pulled it back. She couldn't shoot him.
"I knew all Spies were fuckin' weak."
That was all she heard before a blast from his Scattergun killed her, the bullets shredding her chest.
When she awoke in respawn, Alessandra looked over at this neat electronic scoreboard. BLU hadn't captured a single point and there was only 2 minutes left. It was obvious that they were going to lose. Groaning, she headed out to go get in at least one more kill before Humiliation.
If Ryan wanted to play this anger game, she'd play it right back at him.
