 a few hours ago, there was the "bread" incident. Engineer , even after knowing what just happened wants to study his teleporter even more. Though, he was too tired to be tinkering after the battle, so he decides to rest for the night. Before closing his eyes, He is curious what other discoveries awaits him tomorrow.

[tc_hydro(Red base) | 4:30 AM]

Engineer wakes up from his bed, stretching immediately.

"Woo wee! t'was a goodnight sleep alright!." he chirped.

He grabs his outfit and heads straight to the bathroom to freshen up. The others are still asleep. It's normal for Engineer to wake up earlier than others; it's second nature for him. After freshening up, he immediately goes to medic's lab, to experiment with portals further.

A few hours later....

[tc_hydro(Red base) | 7:00 AM]

Everyone had woken up by now, and is having breakfast with each other, except 1 member... Engineer. Medic asked others where he might be. Soldier suggested his lab.

"zat soon already?"

"Affirmative! I might have even heard him walk to your lab this morning."

"vell, I guess I'll see ya later zen everyone.".

Medic waved to everyone, then left his table to go meet with Engineer, before leaving the canteen he grabbed a few snacks for Engineer.

While passing through corridors, he glances at the now destroyed last point. Before continuing his walk to his lab.

[inside of medic's lab]

Engineer put his fingers on his chin, tinkering of what experiments to do. He has teleported most items in the lab, but found no results.

"HELLO MEIN HARD-HATTED FREUND!" Medic barges in and shouted, with a pantry of snacks in his hand.

Engineer flinched at the sound of the slammed door, aiming his pistol at medic before noticing it was him.

"Ya scared me!" he snapped.

 he paused momentarily "Also, is that a cupcake?"

"Yes it is, now eat it, because I don't think you have eaten at all!"

"Heh, you're right." He looks at medic with an amused look, before eating the cupcake.

"Anyvay, vat are you doing?"

"Well, after what happened yesterday, Ah was wondering what other hidden property my teleporter has."

"So ah experimented with various other objects around ere', but so far... no progress at all..." he scratched his hardhat.

"Hmm, maybe ve should try experimenting with the tele exit?"

"What d'ya mean?" he looked at him curiously.

"Ve could maybe try to make the tele's exit into other object, maybe a ray gun? OOH, maybe even make the tele exit be the microwave!"

"Worth a shot, but I'm sure most items would just either break if we get teleported to it or worse; get us stuck."

"fair enough."

They both think of an idea of what object should be used as an exit. Engineer then glances at his PC, then a  lightbulb lit in his head.

"doc, We might have ourselves a new experiment."

medic then looked at what Engi's looking at and nodded at him. They both then proceed to construct a teleport for the rest of the day. They finished the project in the afternoon, which is faster than they expected. Engineer carefully plugs the Teleporter exit to his computer.

The computer made a lot of noise, Engineer gestured to medic to duck, expecting the PC to explode. After a bit the pc made a *ding* noise. They cautiously get up to check. They looked around before standing up. They saw that the teleporter was up and running. They both look at each other with a bright smile.

They grabbed their gear to prepare going onto the teleporter.

"Let's do a gear checkup before going in." medic exclaimed. Engineer nodded

"metal?" 

"Check" 

"Firearm to defend ourselves?"

"Eeyup!" he glance to his metal box, which also has his loadout.

"I think zat is all ve need."

"See ya on the other side, doc!" He walked to the teleporter. To find out it does nothing.

"Oh, it seems zat it's broken."

"Well, that's a bummer... Back to experimenting I gue- AHHH!." His voice echoed through the room before disappearing abruptly.

Medic was surprised the teleporter worked, but before he went in, he thought of mentioning to others that they're gonna be off, for... maybe a few days?

Medic then runs out of the room, he founds spy walking about. He ran to him, and stopped once close enough. Before he even tapped his shoulder, the spy asked him a question.

"What do you want?"

Medic walks in front of him and grabs him by the shoulder. "If Engineer and I are gone for 2 days, know it's the teleporter". He then goes back to his lab, leaving Spy confused, Spy brush it off as just another one of their projects.

Medic grabbed his medigun, he glanced at the spare metal in his lab, he decides to grab a few more metal before standing in the portal. He took a deep breath before proceeding to walk onto the portal

[Whilst teleporting]

(Medic pov)

AHHHH I'M FALLING!

yet, I'm safe?

Glances at every corner before finding something he can read

"Tower defense simulator?"

Vat a weird nam-

Teleporter noises

[???? | Daytime]

Medic almost fell to his knees once arriving, he balance himself before shouting

"ENGINEER! VERE ARE YOU?!?!."

"Behind you pardner."

Medic instinctively shot a crossbow at his face, which did nothing.

"oops, haha!"

Engineer looked at him with a straight face.

"anyvay, vere are ve?"

"I'm not sure, it seems like we're in the middle of the forest."

They both look around to find anything interesting.

"Engineer look! A path!"

Engineer then look at the direction medic is looking at

"We might find help!" he added

"I'ma pick up this teleporter as well, Incase someone tries to go through it."

"Vell let's go now!"

A dark figure with a black dominus and a staff notice the new people roaming in the woods

"Huh, is that how most towers got here?" he thought to himself, before disappearing into the shadows of the forest.
