The First Battle
The RED team hated Dustbowl. The endless losing, just because the BLUs respawned faster.
If it wasn't for the RED Assassin, the REDs would have had a normal day in Dustbowl.
Dustbowl battle
"So, ya leap on people?" The Sniper asked.
"Easier than it sounds." The Assassin replied.
The Sniper put in a clip into his SMG.
"The BLU Medic got his Uber almost up!"
"I'll pounce on the Heavy, take care of the Medic!"
Both of them went out of the respawn room on the second stage of Dustbowl and defended the last point by wiping out the Medic and Heavy.
The Assassin thanked the Sniper, and both of them went on to do their jobs.
The BLU Engineer had his teleporter, dispenser and sentry up. The RED Spy had tried to sap all of the buildings, but failed.
The Engineer was now standing on top of the RED Spy, who at least sapped the sentry.
"Ya think ya can sap all my buildings? What's the point pardner? Ya'll just lose anyway."
"You always learn from your mistakes." The RED Spy smirked.
"And here iz a lesson for you monsieur Conagher. Always remember to destroy sappers on your sentry."
"Wha-!"
A gunshot was heard, and the BLU Engineer known as Dell Conagher, dropped dead.
The sentry was destroyed and the Spy sapped all the others.
The RED Assassin put his dual P220 pistols back into his holster.
"I appreciate your help!"
With that, The Assassin leaped off to find more victims.
The RED Engineer just put a critical bullet right into the BLU spy's head when he tried to sap his sentry. Dustbowl, surprisingly for both teams, was going smoothly fine for the REDs.
The RED Engineer ran as quick as he can to the RED Demoman, who was the closest to him, and had taken a few damage before reaching his destination.
"Demo, do ya know why in Sam's hill we're winning?"
"Ach, noo. But I do know one thing!"
The Demo shot a few grenades at a soldier.
"KABOOM!"
The Texan knew Demoman was not an intelligent guy, so he just ran back to his sentry.
There he could see why they were winning.
The Assassin killed anyone that dared to come outside of the BLU respawn room.
After the battle, back in RED base in the living room
The Assassin was sitting on a sofa, just staring at the wall. The rest of the team was doing the same thing. The Medic tried to start a conversation.
"Herr Assassin, you showed excellent combat skills! You were ze killing machine!"
The words: Killing Machine rang through his head.
The Assassin growled, pulled out his P220 and shot the Medic's hand.
"Don't you ever fucking mention those words to me again."
The Medic yelled in pain. The Scout shouted back at him.
"Fritz didn't say anythin' bad at ya! He was complementing ya! You fucking shot two teammates already!"
The Assassin, upon realizing what he had done, sat back down on the sofa. After a moment of silence, with no noise other than the Sniper bandaging Medic's hand, he finally spoke.
"I'm… sorry Medic."
"It's okay Herr Assassin," The Medic said as he held back a scream of pain from the bullet wound.
"I should apologize. I didn't know zhat word would offend you."
"It just… brings back some… bad memories." The Assassin looked away from the whole team (who were now staring at him).
"The memories of how I lost my eyes. How I ended up in this world."
A knock was heard at the front door. The Pyro opened it.
It was one of the messengers that the Administrator sent to talk to the team.
"I have a package for your assassin" The messenger said with no expression.
He gave it to the Pyro and went to the BLU base, carrying a box similar to the box that he gave the REDs.
The Pyro walked to the hooded mercenary and gave him the box.
He read the note on the front of the box. "Open in private."
He excused himself and went to his room.
It contained a note, and something metallic as big as a head.
He read the note.
"Dear RED Assassin,
Dell Conagher and the BLU Assassin have agreed to work with me.
I see you haven't contacted me since the letter I sent to you a week ago.
Would you disobey your master? Remember, there will be lots of cash for
you and your brothers.
Sincerely,
Gray Mann.
The Assassin sighed. He needed to deceive his teammates now. He needed them to get out of their living room.
To make the phone call.
The call that would decide the fate of humanity and his brotherhood.
Sorry for late update :/
I'm just too busy, you know? Anyway, for those of you who doesn't know, the BLU Engineer's real name is Dell Conagher. In the wiki it says that, and in one of the comics BLU Engineer is called Dell Conagher.
Who is Gray Mann? You'll see…
Or you can just go to and make the story less exciting by reading the comics.
