Time passes and nothing happened, usually the enemy team would have captured the intelligence by now. It gave Engi a sense of hope which didn't last very long when it was announced that the entire team was dead... again. The only thing left to do was to defend until they lost, just like every other game. 

"Are you ready?" Pyro asked with a defeated tone. It use to be the most cheerful thing on any server imaginable. But with so many loses it drove them down into a depressed state, they tried to hide it but Engi could see right through those thick goggles. 

"I recon so, lets give it our all. All we need to do is defend until everyone responds." It was rather hard to mean what he said, all it would take was one uber exchange and they were done for. Engi pulled off his glove and rested his metal hand on her shoulder. "I know what you're thinking, it's likely to happen. And it mostly likely will if you don't get a hold of yourself."

Pyro tipped their head to him. "Actually, I was thinking about what to have for dinner."

Engi let his arm loose from her shoulder with an "Oh" and walked over to his seat. 

Engi heard a wave of footsteps coming from the hall, it sent chills up his spine. "Sentry up ahead, gentlemen!" That damn Spy was pressing every button Rocky had. 

"Charge me, doctor!" Right then the sound of an uber activating filled the hallway, and to his surprise gun fire started as well. "RUN, COWARDS!!!" There was the sound of a blood curtailing scream from the enemy Spy, a Medic, and a Heavy, then the hall was silent.

"Uhhhhh, Pyro?" Engi asked with a clueless expression but they only responded with a shrug. Engi creeped his way over to the hall entrance, at the far end was a Heavy and Medic sharing a laugh, his family. They made their way to the intelligence room and the four attempted to make a plan for an assault.  

Engi's head tilted in the direction of the sound of a Deadringer uncloak. "Spy 'round here." He said checking every corner. It made everyone incredibly paranoid to know there was the presence of an enemy Spy, Medic had his back to the wall with his Needle gun out, no one could blame him though.

Everyone waited for something, anything to happen. But no one came, it was quiet for about five minuets. Until something almost as bad as the Spy came running through the halls. "Guess who, losers." Everyone moaned. "Yeah that's right, Scout is here to save the day again!"

"Scout, go look for enemy Spy! He is close!" Heavy said with a hint of courage for possible victory. Scout had been full of himself ever since he actually touched the enemy intelligence in a match before, he probably felt bigger than a Heavy. 

Scout responded to Heavy's command with a grin. "No way. Pyro, why don't you go find dad- I mean the Spy! That is your job, isn't it!?" He had a point, but we needed her here just to be sure we weren't alone. 

"Ya know what, who needs a dumb Pyro anyway? They're completely useless, all they do is burn people. As long as I'm here nothin' could go wro-." That last statement toward Pyro drove Engi to his edge. He grabbed Scout by the neck and held him to the wall at gun point.

"I'm gonna lay you out!" Engi said with a ton in his voice that people rarely heard. Engi kicked and struggled, but the grip was just too strong. "I've had just about enough of you." It seemed that everyone agreed, since non of them bothered to stop him from sending Scout to another re-spawn.

"Oooo yeah, you're real scary. What could you do to me that hasn't already happened before? You. Are. TERRIBLE! Hehehe." He had another point, if Engi pulled the trigger it would only solve the problem for less than a minuet. But that gave him a better idea, he dragged Scout to the glass wall on the opposite side of the room. "Hey, let go of me, dumbass!"

Rocky slammed him against the glass and Scout let out a small grunt of pain. "What the hell is your problem!?" Medic and Pyro seemed to catch the idea and almost jumped out of their suits.

"Engineer, don't you dare do it!" Medic said in the most bazaar voice. "I understand you are mad vut zis is going too far." Engi shot the glass and it shattered, then he held Scout right outside the large window, pistol aimed right at the confused simpleton. Scout suddenly tried everything in his power to break free, he managed to loosen Engi's grip but only to start falling until he grab the bottom on the window seal. 

"Heh, quick as a hiccup, ain't ya?" Engi looked right into Scout's fearful eyes then aimed at him. There were many rules to Team Fortress 2, Scout never bothered to read any of them but one. The one rule that scared everyone in the entire game: If you are to die outside of the designed map then you with NEVER re-spawn. Hearing the rule in his head made Engi exited to never see that disgusting Scout again. "But not quick enough."

"A-alright Engi, it's not f-funny anymore." Scout looked sick to his stomach. 

"Engi, just stop." Pyro said, they were never one to enjoy drama. "We both know you aren't gonna do it." Engi gave them a smile that was only returned with crossed arms from the impatient Pyro. Medic fell to the ground, relieved to know Engi didn't actually lose his mind. 

"Aw, come on. It was just getting good, I'm just a bullet away from making him pee." Engi let out a hand to Scout but the stubborn kid only slapped it away and climbed up on his own. "Go check for the Spy, shorty."

"Not. FUNNY!" Scout tried to march out of the room but was stopped by Heavy, who picked him up. "Let me go, fatty!" 

"HAAAA, HAHAHA! He is right, you are soooo small! AH HAHAHA. You are so tiny, is funny to me!" Heavy rapped him in a bear hug. "You are baby Scout, Heavy is happy!" Everyone watched and enjoyed a good laugh, except Scout of course. The joke helped take everyone's mind off their inevitable demise. 

Just then, the scream of a Sniper came from the hall, and the smell of burning flesh filled the room.
