"Frau?" called a voice. She looked over her shoulder, at the man calling her through her round glasses. "Can you do zhe sewer check? It's been avhile, I'd send Demoman to do it, vhat vith him alvays vantink to find zhat "sewer monster" und all, but..." He trailed off, looked to a medical bed, the demoman fading in and out of unconsciousness with a blue colored mist surrounding him, with the injured Scout eating his dinner in bed, since the male Medic's examination showed his heart and lungs were quite worn out form his intel-capping, he decided it was best to have bedrest for a few days.

She let out a sigh, she, along with other men, hated going in the sewers, only choosing it if it was life or death. And living in 2Fort, that was usually the case.

"Yeah, I can do it." She answered, getting up from her small chair and leaving her papers at her desk, she was organizing profiles and medical information for the medic, tossing out profiles of deceased members, updating the medical information and reports.

Madeline pulled her short brown hair into a ponytail, then adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose. She exited the Med Bay, doors sliding open and closing behind her. The young medic turned right and went down the stairs to the courtyard. She walked along the open areas, mostly hallways to confuse the enemy, though somehow a RED every once in awhile would get in. She found another staircase, that wound under itself and led to the sewers. She hiked up her boots before trekking into the water.

It was called the sewers, for there was alot of water and it, well, looked like a sewer. It was more like where their water was cleaned and fixed for reuse, the company they worked for couldn't send a train every other day to clean the sewers and bring more water. She opened the blue door, and not to her surprise, one of the water purifiers was breaking, which is why there was water all throughout the "sewers". She left the room, locking the door and making sure to tell medic and engineer so it would get fixed.

As she headed back for the staircase, she could swear she heard someone else nearby. She walked as quietly through the water as she could towards the splashing sounds. And right as she peeked around a corner, the owner of the voice was there.

All Madeline could see, even with her glasses on, was the silhouette of a man, waist deep in water. This was where the flooring sloped, the water should be deeper than just someone's waist. She placed a hand on the wall, but doing so, she lost her balance, and her gloved hand made a soft noise moving across the concrete as she caught herself. The silhouette turned to her, and then quickly sank into the water.

It was the monster the injured Demoman had been speaking of.

"Madeline? Is zhat you?" Medic called. He rushed to the doors to greet her.

"Yeah, it's me," She replied, fingers in her hair "It's me."

"I vas getting worried, zhe demoman here keeps saying to not go into zhe sewers." he said, brow furrowed. "Vas anyzhing wrong down zhere?"

"Uh, well, one of the purifiers are broken. I can go get an engineer to fix it right now. It's quite flooded down there." She explained. "I wouldn't recommend anyone go down there alone, it was a little slippery too, don't want anyone drowning."

"Ja, ja, vouldn't be beneficial." Medic said. How was she supposed to tell him, to convince him that the demoman wasn't drunk out of his mind when telling everyone there was a monster in 2Fort?

A battle went out later in the day, the RED had started an attack on BLU again. Madeline and the only other Medic stood behind the Heavy, with the Soldier firing rockets over their heads. Madeline kept yelling to her patient Heavy to not go past the point on the bridge, pointing out the red sniper dot at the end.

After struggling with Heavy, who wanted to barge into the RED base, and trying to keep the scouts back, the REDs back off their attack. It was over, for the time being.

Madeline left during dinner, as it grew dark outside. She slipped down the stairs. She knew what she was doing. And she knew it was dangerous. The female medic could hear the other medic, the medic from Viaduct, speaking in her head, she could hear him saying, "Humans are quite zhe curious creature, once piqued, it must be sated." And she had to sate her curiosity, or it would eat her from the inside out. But then again, she remembered that curiosity did indeed kill the cat.

But satisfaction brought it back...right?
