(Old Version) Monsters and Men (Platonic Mercs X Child Reader)

An Adventure

The rest of the ride was silent as the men stared at the small unconscious body. Whatever you were...

You weren't human...

Four hours later

Medic sat in his chair and looked around at the dark expression held on his colleagues faces. After a few more seconds of silence Medic decided to be the one to break the silence.

"So...vhat are ve going to do viz ze kleines Mädchen? " The question caused the men to turn and stare at eachother. Each one of them searched for an answer none of them had.

"Well, we can't keep ze child here..." Spy finally added to the conversation.

"Vell zen, what do jou propose ve do? Ve can't let her leave...Ze little Mädchen is not just a little Mädchen...not to mention vhat she is vearing, she's vanted..." The men nodded. They all understood these facts well as they had been brought up in this meeting more than once.

"Well does docktor say she stays here?" Heavy asked the question with almost disbelief in what hos friend implied.

"Until ve come up viz anozer solution...jes..." Medics answered gained a wide variety of emotions from the men. Spys was the most noticeable as he slightly glared at Medic.

"You can't be serious...zis is a child we are talking about! We are in a warzone!" Medic glared back but before he could respond Soldier loudly intervened

"I THINK KEEPING HER HERE IS A GOOD IDEA! WE CAN RAISE HER AS A SOLDIER!" Soldiers answer obviously didn't please any of the men

"She is just a child you ignorant buffoon!" Spy voice cut through the room and unleashed the arguing.

"See dats da ding! She ain't just a ki-" Scout was cut off before he could even finish his sentence, obviously being ignored by everybody.

"And your sayin we just give the little dingo back?! She was beat to a bloody pulp when we found 'er! Whoeva had her didn't much care for 'er that's for damn sure!" Snipers voice growled across the room to Spy, not taking any care to what Scout had to say.

"And yee think the BLUs will care if she's a child 'er not?!" Demoman slammed his empty drink onto the table, shattering the glass due to his forgotten strength.

"Huh, hu huda hu?" Pyro looked to Engie as they slightly tilted their head. They didn't seem to understand the situation. Engie turned to the firebug before letting out a sigh

"Pahro, ah think ya better leave...this might not end very well..." A concerned Engineer spoke quietly to the confused Pyro, not wanting any of the other men to start yelling at him for the hundreth time tonight. Pyro sadly obliged and left the room. Engie felt exhaustion pull at him as the men continued their fighting.

"I think ya should keep your mouth shut cyclops! Ya dont got no right to talk! Your already half drunk!" Scout hit a lot of Demos very well known spots of irritation which caused Demo to stand, fury found in his movements.

"IM GONNA GIVE YEE TWO SECONDS TO SHUT YER MOUTH YA WEE SCAMPERIN' WINDBAG!"

"WHATCHA GONNA DO CYCLOPES!? YA CAN'T EVEN CATCH ME!"

"OHHHHH IM GONNA-" Demos yelling was quickly cut off by an ear-piercing screech that didn't sound like anything any of the men had heard before. What followed the sound is what gave the men all the information they needed.

"HUUU HUHHHHH!" The men sitting in the meeting room soon looked to one another as they all collectively came to the same two words.

"Oh no..."
