Ms.Pauling had heard of this hunting thing, were the contestants would pair up and then hunt the 'prey'. So the Red Team piled into the van and drove to Fairvile California, so they could participate. Once they got to the hotel, they unloaded and checked into the hotel. The owner, Norman, was very nice and showed them to their rooms. It didn't take long for them to realize that the hotel was home to many slashers. But it didn't bother them so they just relaxed and prepared for the contest. In a few hours the slashers went outside and got ready for the contest, most of them were sitting in chairs or stretching.
Except for one. A figure sat in a tree, perching, watching, on all fours like a lion stalking its prey. Medic was the only one who saw the figure, the rest of the team was mingling with the slashers. Medic decided to walk up to the tree the figure was perching in, he watched her and was very curious.
"Don't bother her. She bites." A smaller man, who looked older and well dressed said. Medic turns to face the man.
"And you are?" Medic kept his focus on this new man, he didn't even notice that the figure he was watching was now hanging upside down.
"I am Hannibal Lector. If you scare easily don't turn around." Hannibal chuckled slightly. Medic gave a confused look and turned around face to face with the figure. She had some sort of muzzle which was metal and had metal teeth, her eyes were red. Medic noticed that the figure had metal gloves and metal boots, with claws attached.
"Rawr!" She said before bursting out laughing and dropping down from the tree. She was muscular but lean.
"Names SteelJaw." She then walked away and sat in the grass waiting.
"She likes you." Hannibal then glanced to SteelJaw.
"How would you know?" Medic seemed a bit surprised.
"We are friends." Hannibal smiled and then led him to the tables. They then sat and chatted for a while. Every so often Medic glanced at SteelJaw, she stared into the forest.
"Everyone! Look at the board to see your partner!" Norman gestured to the whiteboard, then everyone participating walked over.
Jason & Pyro
Freddy & Scout
GhostFace & Demo
Herzog & Soldier
Chucky & Heavy
LeatherFace & Engineer
Micheal & Sniper
SteelJaw & Medic
Everyone then met up with their partners, and talked. Medic walked over to SteelJaw and smiled warmly to her.
~~Jason & Pyro~~
They sat in silence and waited, both of them enjoying the silence.
~~Freddy & Scout~~
They are bragging about their lives, relationships, and everything possible.
~~GhostFace & Demo~~
They are talking about beer.
~~Chucky & Heavy~~
They talked about guns.
~~LeatherFace & Engineer~~
They are talking about machines, well Engineer is, while LeatherFace listens and grunts.
~~Micheal & Sniper~~
They were talking about hunting.
~~SteelJaw & Medic~~
Medic smiled, he studied her clothing and posture. SteelJaw sniffed him and circled as if they were animals, inspecting each other. Oddly Medic wasn't bothered and sniffed her back, SteelJaw stopped and looked at him intruiged by him.
"Rawr." SteelJaw barked.
"Ruff." Medic barked back, a smile crossing his face. SteelJaw chuckles and purrs, before rubbing her head against his chest. Medic hugs her and kisses her forehead, she then wraps her arms around him carefully, not wanting to cut him with her claws.
"We are about to start!" Norman yells, the groups then get ready. Norman shoots the starter pistol and they all run into the forest.
--Two Hours Later--
The contest had just ended and everyone had already returned. All except for Medic & SteelJaw, a few of the slashers joked and said that she ate him. Which the mercs found didn't find funny at all. But after a few minutes they saw SteelJaw carrying Medic bridal style. It turns out Medic had stepped in a bear trap, so SteelJaw carried him the rest of the way back. Once at tthe back porch she set him in a chair, Medic grabbed a syringe of his own medicine whic would heal his wound. But he wasn't strong enough to pry the bear trap open.
"H-Heavy can you-" Medic stopped when he saw SteelJaw pry open the beartrap and break the closing mechanism. Medic looked impressed, and then injected himself with the serum. His wound soon healed and he let out a sigh of relief.
"Danke." He smiled to SteelJaw and petted her head, she then purred in response to his praise.
"I tolf you she liked you." Hannibal said as he walked past, Medic chuckled in response. He then continued to pat SteelJaws head, truly grateful for her assistance.
