       "I can sneak in and take a look around." Spy offered and the team took him up on the suggestion. Spy had left for around thirty minutes until he came back. "Blue Demoman and Scout are in the building." This statement confused you so much.
"But you killed them! How they alive?" You clung to Medic secretly as he held you in his arms. The whole team kind of just awkwardly looked away.
      "Wie vill explain zhat later." Medic had spoke up first. You had enough of this bull shit. You slide out of Medic's arms and pulled out your back up knife from your back pocket. "How many knives do jou have on jou?!?" You ignored Medic's question and started limping to the door before Spy grabbed you in a panic.
      "Ah! No! You 're not going out ther' on 'our own!" This was your home and they are prowling around in there like they own the place. YOU GONNA STAB A BITCH! Sadly you put your knife away in your back pocket.
       "We don't have any ammo or weapons to fight them at all!" Scout looked over to the factory and cringed.
        " 'Hank 'ou, Captain Obvious."  Spy looked to Scout with a poker face. Scout growled and reached to punch him before you grabbed his fist and shoved it back at himself. Scout scoffed and backed off. Spy smirked and held onto you. He's starting to like you now that you are against Scout as much as he is. You really aren't against Scout at all, you just didn't want them to fight. Back to the now though, the blue Demoman and Scout walked out from the factory. You watched them intently as much as the whole Red time did as well. They moved fast and far away. Within the minute after they left the building you heard a few beeps and clicks.
       "Crap!" You yelled and ducked down as the whole factory blew up. The rest of the team got blown back by the powerful force of the blow. It took a minute as the ringing in your ear still blared loudly. You picked your head up and looked around. The whole Red team was about ten feet blown back away from you. Medic was the first up and trying to run to you. He made it to you and started saying something. You couldn't hear over the ringing but in that moment the realisation sank in. Your home. The one place you knew was now blown to kingdom come. You pull away from Medic and limp over to peer down at your home. The place was completely destroyed. They blew up the support systems and now all the supplies were buried deep under thousands of concrete ruble waste. All your work for five years was now useless. You truly were alone now. Truly lost and afraid. Medic grabbed you from behind and lifted you up and started running away. You snap back to reality and look at Medic panic running with the rest of the team. The ringing faded and was replaced with gun shots and explosions.
"You got (y/n) Doc?!" Scout was in the front running as fast as possible, yelling back at Medic.
          "Ja!" Medic wasn't running really hard for he is staying behind with Heavy who can't run at all. You look behind Medic to see Blue Scout, right behind you, and Demoman chasing the team. Immediately your protective side kicked in and you grabbed the knife you had before from your back pocket again. This is going to be a hard shot, aiming for the leg of the Blue Scout. It took a few minutes but you saw a window and recognised his running pattern. You threw the knife and it hit its target perfectly. Scout yelps out and falls face flat with a knife all the way in his calf. Medic keeps running due to there still being a Demoman chasing them but the more dangerous threat was now eliminated. Heavy was the only one who saw you take out the Scout with the knife. They kept running until the Demoman gave up and turned back. We made it to an abandoned supermarket and hide in the employee lounge room. As soon as they all settled you were placed down on the floor and ignored as they argued. You limped out of the room into an aisle far away from the lounge. If you were older you would be able to hold back the tears but it was too much to muster down this time. You curled up into yourself and hid in a top corner shelf. How you got up there, the world may never know. Softly you cried to yourself. You lost your home and all the work you put into it so you could survive. It was back to square one because of the Blue team!
      "Hudah hu?" You sniffle and look over the edge of the shelf to see Pyro. You look down at him and wipe your tears away.
      "Yeah Pyro?" You try your hardest to choke down more tears. Pyro gently takes you down from the shelf and sits down against the wall with you in his arms.
       "Hudah huddah huh." You don't understand a single word he is saying. You just let him comfort you. Again you started crying, hiding your face by your hands. Pyro simply rubbed your shoulder and let you cry out. After a good five minutes you calmed down. You were a pretty quiet cryer. "Huddah huda?" You looked up at Pyro and cracked a crooked smile.
      "I have not an idea what you say." Showing your poor verbal language. Pyro laughed at you and hugged you close. After crying so much, you were exhausted. You fought hard to keep yourself awake. Pyro still had you in his arms when he walked back into the lounge room. There was a lot of yelling at each other until Pyro and you entered. All of the men just turned away from each other and shut up. The journey took all day and the sun was now falling. Medic asked Pyro to hold you but Pyro shook his head and kept a hold on you. You were too tired to complain or protest. You couldn't fight back sleep anymore and you passed out in Pyro's arms. As you slept you could hear a few times the yell of some men. None of it woke you up but there was definitely something wrong that they wouldn't tell you about. Not that they had to tell you anything at all, but what ever it was disturbed them all, and broke the team up into different opinions.
