Days passed. Despite the looming threat of being killed, the RED team still managed to enjoy themselves. At one fight, Heavy and Medic wore 1970 rock-star clothes, complete with star-shaped sunglasses. They got slaughtered a ridiculous amount by the BLU team. In another fight, Demoman had grown such an impressive and large afro that Sniper was able to hide in it, and racked up an impressive amount of headshots.
Still, it was noticeable even to the BLU team that something was going on that the RED team were keeping quiet about. In the BLU base, the secret was a major discussion wherever two mercenaries were together. The BLU Spy was sent out multiple times, but always returned through the re-spawn system, mildly singed. The BLU Spy didn't find anything out.
One evening, the BLU team had finished their dinner, when the RED Spy de-cloaked with a "Gentlemen?".
This resulted with cries of "SPY!", and some BLU mercenaries started getting up, but were waved down by the RED Spy. The Frenchman began talking.
"You know we have a secret, and you have been sending out your Spy to try and find out what it is. I will tell you, as it has been long enough and your lives depend on it. Now, both teams have acquired a new class, non? Our Support has brought along a monster, the Schizophrenic Horned Man, often given the name Cernunnos. Our Irishman also brought along a film of this monster, and it is terrifying. Cernunnos is shown killing about a dozen men with rifles, without taking any damage.
"However, the administrator has found out about Cernunnos, as I have seen the legendary Saxton Hale around our bases. Despite this, I think it would be a good idea if you carry your weapons around with you at all times, as my team is, as we don't know when Cernunnos will strike."
The RED Spy looked around, and cloaked. Then, the BLU team heard him say "I'll be seeing you.".
The BLU team looked at each other.
"Do we trust him?" asked Demoman.
"If there is anything in his story, especially if Saxton Hale is around, then I think something bad is going on." replied Sniper.
As the RED Spy jogged back to his base, he attracted the attention not only from Saxton Hale, but also, in the shadows, Cernunnos.
A/N In the next chapter, Cernunnos will strike. Please rate and review.
