=your pov=

The day had finally arrived where the Misfits would go up against the Vanguards. After about a month and a half of training and showing the group how different things worked, getting them familiar with different terms and everything, it was time. However, there was a twist. You would be on The Misfits' team to give them a small advantage. If they had just gone by themselves against people that have been doing it for years, it would be over in minutes. 

You had decided to wear what you used to wear before you joined the vanguards, that being a black long sleeve shirt and a padded vest with a dark green trenchcoat overtop, some dark camo cargo pants, an (F/c) and black balaclava with a backward dark green cap and your paintball mask. Everyone was waiting at the center of the map waiting for The Misfits to arrive. "So, (Y/n), you ready to lose?" Barker said. "On the contrary, you should be prepared to lose this time around," You said adjusting your mask.

Bickering back and forth for a few more minutes, The Misfits showed up, matching jerseys and all. They all had a camo pattern to them, but each had a color lining where the front met the back. They each had a basic paintball gun, as well as an extra pistol. Walking up to them, you made some small talk before the match, making sure go pros on helmets, masks, and guns were working ok. Then, the refs came on the sight along with an announcer, who was none other than Ryan himself. "Alright, everyone! Basic paintball rules except everyone has 3 lives. If your hit, go back to spawn. Every time that happens, you lose a life. You run out of lives, you're out. The last team standing wins. Sound good?" He said.

Everyone agreed and went in separate directions, heading to their spawns. Fitz slowed down to walk next to you. "You think we have a chance?" Fitz said. "We're going up against a team of people who know what they're doing."

"I think we have a chance. Besides, even though you guys are still kind of new to this, we have something they don't," you said, adjusting the scope on your sniper. "And what's that?" "Beginner's luck and sheer willpower."

=Timeskip=

The Misfits were either in or around a building around the middle of the map, the rundown structure had graffiti on almost all the walls, windows wither had their lining with no glass, or had broken glass lining the edges. Matt and Toby were downstairs of the 5-floor building keeping watch in case of an ambush. Everyone on either side had one life left. 2 floors up were Mason and McCreamy waiting for people walking up to take them out. On the top floor were you, Swagger, and Fitz. You had found some old chairs and had angled them so you leaned back on one, your legs on another with your sniper aiming out the window looking by the entrance of the building. Swagger and Fitz were waiting by the door.

"Anything yet?" Swagger asked. "Nothing yet- wait," You said looking by the ditch created about 12 feet in front of the building. You saw some blue smoke start to come from the ditch before the object making the smoke was thrown forward. "Smoke, they're advancing," You said aiming down starting to fire. When the smoke started to clear, yellow guy walked out with his hand up. but do did Matt. 'Where's Toby?' you thought. You could hear shouts throughout the building, eventually heading to the door of the room you were in and throwing a grenade (Completely non-lethal, it just makes a loud noise and makes a spark) down the stairs. "GRENADE!" Someone shouted, and you could hear people moving around to get away from it, then to hear someone say "Hit".

Looking back outside to see who was hit, you saw Alistair, Mason, and McCreamy walk out of the building laughing and talking to each other. Rushing to the door, you hatched out a plan. "Ok, this door is the only way to get into the room. I have an idea that just might work," You said, going over your plan. Almost immediately after, you could hear people walking towards the room. "Positions!" You whisper shouted as the three of you went to different parts of the room. Swagger and Fitz waiting in the corners of the wall with the door, you standing behind the open door.

As The last 4 Vanguards walked into the room, you popped a smoke out, the (F/c) smoke filling the room slightly. The three of you pulling out your guns, starting to fire. 3 of the 4 had left by the time the smoke had cleared. "Wait, weren't there four?-" Swagger started but was cut off when he got shot in the side by a paintball. Looking to behind the door where you had originally been, Barker stood, gun in hand.

Aiming your gun, you went to shoot him but only heard a 'click' noise. Looking over at Fitz, his gun was going the same thing. Barker walked forward, ready to end the game,

When he got shot in the back.

Looking back, you saw Toby standing there, Gun aimed at Barkers back. Smiling, you cheered. "WE FUCKIN WON!" You shouted. The rest of the team left shouting in victory. Walking over to Barker, you shook his hand. "Good game man. You did well," You said lifting up your mask. "Good game to you too. Me and the boys have a surprise for you outside though," He said putting an arm around your shoulders and practically dragging you outside. "Oh no," You said, seeing that everyone had lined up in front of the building. "Birthday run!" Barker said going over to the line. 

=Timeskip=

After many minutes of convincing, you started at the beginning of the line, almost touching the outside wall of the building you were just in. You dreaded this. Barker counted you in, and you started running. As you ran, all you could hear was the sound of paintball guns going off, each hit hurting worse than the last. It was hell. Reaching the end of the line, you stopped, grabbing onto a barricade to support yourself. Barker walked up to you and put a hand on your back, which you flinched at having it just been hit by a paintball. Barker laughed as The Misfits walked up to you. "How you feelin' mate?" Mason asked. "Fucked," You said with an out-of-breath laugh as everyone laughed along.
