Treasure Trove (Book of One-Shots)

Team Fortress 2: Highlander (Prologue)

" Ooohhhh, run, run, I'm coming for you!"

Vernon Obelisk Benson ran towards the opposing team's Scout with his minigun. The Scout, running away in terror, leaped over an edge to take cover in the water, but not before a bullet skimmed across his shoulder.

" Damn," uttered Vernon, or Vr00m, taking a bite of his Sandvich.

Carl, the Spy of the Red team, walked up to Vr00m, " We don't have much time to talk," the Spy said, " I'll find that Scout. I'll stab 'em dead. You try and take out their Medic,"

" Who in the hell made you the leader?"

Carl grunted, " No one, but I've got the stabby thing,"

" And I've got the gunny thing,"

The two separated. Carl hopped over the ledge and swam in the small body of water. Crawling in a drainage pipe, he saw the Blu Team's Scout hiding in the pipe, cowering in fear. Using his Invis Watch, the slippery little bastard stabbed his blade through the Scout's back, instantly killing him. Carl pulled out his knife and watched the blood drip, " Oh dear, I've made quite a mess,"

" Come on! We can't let these Blu maggots take us down! Fight men, fight!"

" Viviana! Shut the hell up and blow up some shit!" Yelled the Heavy as he continued to shoot out round after round, as the Soldier kept screaming commands. Suddenly, Viviana Van Shtick was shot in back by an unseen Sniper.

" Medic! Medic!"

...

I ran to the scene where I was being called, dodging enemy fire in the process. There was an un disguised Blu Spy on my ass the whole time, set on murdering me. But he was easy to evade since I could see him. What a newbie, I thought. But honestly, I'm not exactly what you'd call a battle expert...

I made it near the bridge. Viviana, our team's Soldier, lay injured on the dirt ground, " A-Are you okay?"

Her eyes flickered a few times before barely opening completely, " If fighting is sure to (cough)... If f-fighting is sure to result in v-victory, then you must f-fight!"

She stared into my eyes, I pulled out my Medi Gun, and gave her a quick heal. She grabbed my shoulders and--

" Alright, Training Simulation Off-line!"

SMACK!

" Don't you EVER let your guard down again, private! For all you know, I could've been a damn Spy!"

" Y-Yes, ma'am. I won't forget. Always keep my guard up!"

She nodded, " Yes, that's good. Well you did alright for a newcomer, Adam. It's nice to have new Medic on the scene. Ain't that right, Tokoma?"

I turned around to see Engineer Korichi Tokoma grunting behind me. I had taken his longtime role of the Medic.

" Red Team, come together," Viv called, " We are going to be playing Highlander starting tomorrow at high noon. We will be victorious, and reign supreme. You will be presented with rigorous training sessions like this one again and again, and you will exceed my expectations. Understood?"

The whole team, including myself, nodded.

" Damn, she's serious," Zebulon, our Scout whispered.

" Yeah. Wonder the hell she's been through," I responded.

Soldier Viviana had good intentions, but this was only the beginning. We were starting Highlander tomorrow, and Team Fortress 2 as we know it was going to change, get more difficult. Our lives were on the line, and quite frankly...

... I don't know if we can take the heat..

A.N: Sort of a testing ground to see if you guys want this to continue as a full-blown TF2 book. Clearly, it's very short. It's a one-shot. Do you guys want more TF2? If so, let me know down below... Me...

Ignore my stupid puns, I hope you enjoyed!
