Time: 19:00

Location: Still The Forests of France

After catching up with the rest of my old vegas crew and ol' Sleepin beauty, we started trekking towards 3650's direction. Beforehand I asked him to simply go to the neighboring kingdom for a base of ops but what I was greeted with… Startled me. "Fuck. I can't get any signal from him.' I muttered "' Something ain't right."

I looked back, only just noticing the looks of confusion on the situation. "What on earth do you mean you 'can't reach th-'" before Aurora could finish, I spotted a familiar cloth of red in the bushes. Had enough time to pull out my sequoia when 32 or so Legionaries started to pop out and scream an all too familiar phrase.

[Roundhouse Rock - Bert Weedon]

"YOU HAVE DEFILED THE LEGION FOR THE LAST TIME DEGENERATE! LONG LIVE THE VI-' BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG!" his head (and four others) all exploded into a puddle of blood as I whipped out ol' V.A.T.S and dispatched them back to hell. Quickly took some cover to reload whilst watching Joshua pistol-whipped one recruit while also placing two firm .45 rounds into another.

"Ah… Just like the old days eh boss?" Raul teased, poking his head out killing two veterans trying to melee rush. "Damn right Raul." I quipped whilst switching to my m1918 just begging to see some action.

Poking out of cover, I slammed a full clip of .30-06 into 4 fortunate killing fodder. Was about to reload when one actually got a stab at me before I shoved him back and planted two rounds in his chest from my 1911. I looked to my right and saw Aurora and Phillip… Holy shit.

[OST Change- Once Upon A Dream]

Those two I have no way to describe it were waltzing and shooting at the same time. How? Hell if I kno- "You'll love me at once skrrrah, The way you did once BANG, Upon A Dream/Upon A Drea- 'BOOM CH-CHICK' HEY LOVEBIRDS!' I yelled. [OST- End]

The two started at me holding my 870 next to a legless legionnaire. I was about to scream at them to keep shooting before Joshua walked up behind me. "Calm yourself, Six. It's already over." I turned around to see the ambushing force dead in serious states.

Sheepishly, I looked back and was about to say something when I heard a familiar voice on my helmet's radio. "Hey uh. Crazy Courier guy? It's me Wilson." I quickly reached for my speaker and started to speak.

"Yeah it's me. What the hell happened with you guys?" I asked, "Well uh… We're finally in the states and u-.." I looked back at the group all curious on what the turret found. "Gracias a Dios. Dónde está, little turret?" Raul replied, interrupting my little reply to him. "Well uh… that's the thing. We're in a haunted mansion and uh…."

Wilson's POV (3rd Person)

The quick camera cuts to Wilson and 3650 inside what appeared to be an old mansion's attic, the latter of which fighting a ghost woman in a bridal dress holding an old fire axe.

"THINK YOU CAN HIDE FROM ME YOU LITTLE BITCH? I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT I'M TOP IN MY CLASS ON THE COMBINE ELITE AND BY GOD I WILL FIX YOU UP."He yelled, firing round after round of 4.6×30mm into the crazy woman's face.

"GRRRAH! WHY WONT YOU FUCKING DIE MO-" Her rage gets interrupted by a small Mp7 Grenade that knocks a comically large amount of furniture around. "THAT'S NOT EVEN FAIR!', YES IT IS NOW DIE ALREADY" The two continued on as the camera cuts back to the forest.

Back to Six's POV (First Person)

"3650's trying to kill the ghosts here. We need help. ASAP" I blankly said nothing for a few minutes.

"A fucking haunted mansion? Really? That's the best we can go with for a base here?" A voice interrupted my stance. I turned to see Vito and his pals wi- "Oh hey Vito. Who the hell's that behind ya?" I asked, looking at the masked soldier and oddly skinny girl next to hi- "Oh shit. You're the six guy?" The masked man asked, "Yeah? What's your deal?" I quipped back.

"Adrian Shepard. U.S Marines Corporal. Lady over here is Attina 'of Trito-"

'GOD DAMNIT AUTHOR NOT A FUCKING GA-'

Location: An Imperial Chinese Training Camp (Third Person)

Time: 06:55 am

Across Europe into the heart of Asia, The Huns (with help from the Legion, unbeknownst to the Emperor) have launched yet another invasion into their land. In response to the throat-singers, an order was carried out for all men from every village to recruit into the army and fight the threat.

Our attention focuses however onto a meeting between the general, his son, the emperor's advisor and two foreign men. One was decked in Enclave Grade Mark Two Powered Combat Armor while the other had a burning 'team captain' and looked li-

"CALL ME A HIPPIE MERASMUS AND I WILL RIP OUT YOUR VERY SOUL!" Soldier screamed, getting a confused look from everyone minus the Enclave a-

"AGENT!? I'll HAVE YOU KNOW YOU MAGGOT THAT I AM NOT AN AGENT. I AM THE ENCLAVES TOP SHIT EATING SARGENT AND YOU WILL TREAT ME LIKE ONE!"

"WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP!? WE ARE HAVING AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION!" Shang yelled back at the two idiots.

"AFFIRMATIVE!" both yelled in unison. Shang sighed and let his father continue the discussion.

"Anyway…. I'll take the main troops up to Tung Shao Pass, and stop Shan-Yu before he destroys this village."

"Excellent stra-"

"A CIVILIAN!? HOW IN THE HELL DID A CIVILIAN GET INTO OUR TENT!?"

"I AM NOT A 'CIVILIAN', I AM THE EMPEROR'S TRUSTED ADVISA-"

"EMPEROR/EMPEROR!?" Both men suddenly pulled out what looked like a Plasma Caster and Woodland Camo Rocket Launcher with a stat tracker on the side of it reading '7013 kills' aimed right at the newcomer.

"SOLDIER! DORNAN! PUT THOSE DOWN! HE'S NOT A SPY! I REPEAT HE'S NOT A SPY!" Shang waved his arms in a panic as he started to apologize frantically to him.

"Should I.. Report this to his m-"

"NO/NEGATORY!" Everyone shouted at him before brushing it off and continuing the conversation.

"Regardless… You, Jane Doe, and… What was your name again?" The general asked, pointing towards the Enclave user in question.

"ARCH DORNAN DOE SIR!"

"Ah! Thank you! Shang, you three will stay and train the new recruits. When Chi Fu believes you're ready, you will join us, Captain." He boomed as he hands down a sword to a dazzled but excited son.

"T- THIS IS AN ENORMOUS RESPONSIBILITY, GENERAL! PERHAPS A MO-"

"I HAVE FOUGHT THREE BEARS NAKED WITH NOTHING BUT BY FISTS YOU COMMUNIST MAGGOT! NO PINKO TRAITOR CAN COME THROUGH US!" Soldier screamed in the middle of a miniature tank of all things while everyone ignored the reply.

A few minutes after saying their final thoughts and goodbyes, Chi Fu and Shang's Father step out leaving Shang, Soldier, and Dornan all to themselves. "Captain Li Shang…. Leader of Chi-"

"CHINA/CHINA!?" The Americans screamed back again. But before anyone can react they catch their ears to what sounded like a brawl going on outside.

Shang was about to investigate when the RED Mercenary suddenly rocket-jumps out of the tent, fires three additional rockets into the crowd and then whips one of them in the head with a shovel.

"GET A HAIRCUT HIPP-"

"SOLLY! WHERE THA FOOK HAVE YE BEEN DOING!?" A very drunk Scottish voice yelled in the crowd.

Everyone turned to see eight more men dressed in red staring in awe and confusion on what the fuck is going on.

"Oh! There you guys are! I was teaching these maggots how to survive a c-" his sentence was cut from a slap in the head by an angry masked gentleman, "YOU MUMBLING BABOON!" He yelled, "GO INTO THAT CORNER AND STAY QUIET!"

"Alright Spy." Soldier whimpered, as he did what he's told.

"I must apologize for our.. Idiotic soldat"

"NOT A PROBLEM MAGGOT! I ALWAYS WANTED TO MEET MY ANCESTOR'S WORK BUDDIES!" Dornan interrupted, while Shang continued.

"No… Problem. Are you his 'spy workmate' he kept ranting on?" Shang asked with a worried tone. "Oui. D-"

"DUE TO THIS WANKA'S ROOMMOITE, WE GOT STRANDED 'ERE IN THE MIDDLE OF ANKLE BITIN' CHOINA."

"YEAH I MEAN HAVE YOU SEEN DA GIRLS HERE!? DEY ALWAYS FLAT AS HELL OR SINGING BOUT FREAKIN' RANDOM BULLSHI-"

"JERMUH ZHAT'S ENOUGH!" Spy interrupted. "Regardless of our situation, and overhearing the conversation, we want to join in." He finished as the camera fades away to Shang screaming on witnessing the beauty of Teufort's Nine Mercenaries.

AN: So. That hiatus thing? Yeah I lied. Ain't happening anymore… I just needed time to go through life and shit before going back into this. Other fics aren't dead, just that I need time to work on them.

As for the haunted mansion idea… Look I ain't gonna sugar coat it but look me dead in the eye and tell me there ain't a mother fucker out there that would've said 'I can fix her' to the crazy axe bride.

Also TF2's in this now. And everyone's favorite Enclave Agent who I personally would 100% believe is the descendant of Soldier. Take all the tf2 references as you will from now on when they pop up.

Next chapter I'm gonna focus on what the hell's going on with Zach, Mike and maybe Billy. Who the hell knows. Take care now.
