"Look Engie, you are from a video game. And most likely nobody believes you ARE alive, because you are fantasy, unreal, not al-"

"NO! I BREATH LIVING AIR, OXYGEN! NOT CARBON DIOXIDE IDIOT." Engineer erupted.

"Ok, ok but get this, nobody knows you're here, nobody knows you're alive, only I do."

"Ok, I get it." Said Engineer

"I'll just open up my PC and we'll get to the point."

I went straight to my Computer Room and turned my PC on and popped in my original copy of TF2 which I have not touched for years because of Portal and Battlefield. "Engie, you can come in now." I said. He came in slowly by the creaky door and stood beside me. I showed him a picture of himself. "Hey, that's me! How'd you get it?" He asked. I clicked a few buttons on the mouse and the monitor showed Google image results for Engineer. It showed thousands to millions.

"These are of... me?" He asked. "Yep. All of these are of you, and only you." I replied. "I'M FAMOUS!" He suddenly erupted again. "Engie, tone it down, my neighbors are trying to take a nap." I tried consoling his voice meter. "Oh sorry.". We did a bit research about what Merasmus did, but to no use, we ended up having no data of it. "I'm sorry Engie, but we did all we can. No data means no future." I ended up telling him. "Whew, let's try again later." He added.

I remembered I inserted the TF2 game disc in the CPU. I showed him he was from that game.

"Engie, this is where you came from, Team Fortress 2." I started.

"T-team fortress 2?" Asked Engie in confusion.

"Well let me give you a demo, it might refresh your mind."

I played TF2 while Engineer watched me play. I was about to choose a class in the RED team when I noticed Soldier, Engineer, Medic and Heavy were not in the selection.

"I get it now."I mumbled.

"What's that?" Engie asked

"Engie, Merasmus banished you from the game itself, not letting you exist in it, instead here you are beside me." I explained.

As I can see it through his goggles, his eyes were full of fury and sadness. His teeth were grinding hard. He threw his hard hat to the floor and started for the PC but I held him back.

"I'LL KILL YOU MERASMUS EVEN IF IT'S THE LAST THING I'LL DO!" He shouted.

He ran out the room and cried at the couch. I was just standing there, feeling the same way too. I couldn't just let Engie stay here forever, with or without his friends, they need to get back home, back to Teufort, back in TF2. I sat there motionless and silent how to get them back, but I was too tired. "It's 11 PM I'd better go to sleep.". But before I went to bed I checked on Engie and I said to him "We'll get to that tomorrow." and stood up. He suddenly said "What's your name?". "My name is Alex." "Alex, Thank you." I looked back and smiled and went away. I draped him with a warm blanket and went to bed. "We'll get to the best of you Merasmus, I'll bring Engie and his friends back home no matter what."
