The game is UT, CTF in Facing Worlds. It's has been a long brutal game, many lives have been lost, but finally the game is tied and next point wins. I make it into enemy’s base, all my teammates that covered me are now dead, I get the flag and start running back. Most people die before reaching the half way mark, picked off by snipers or hit with a group of rockets, but not me, I’m running and jumping, dodging fire left and right. One or two close calls from a rocket leave my health close to none. The Keg O' Health respawns right in time for me to grab it! Once I make it past half way mark, base is closer then ever, but victory is still far away. My heart starts pounding, while rockets and machine-gun fire are flying past me. By the time I reach the opening to my base, my health begins to drop fast. The enemy is gaining on me, but I must persevere, victory is closer now more then ever. Finally I see our flag around the corner just a few steps from my teams victory. Then what do I see out of the corner of my eye? A rocket, but not any ordinary rocket, this one is from a Redeemer! I make one Final leap to the flag. I watch the rocket as it zooms right past me, smashing into the ground right in front of me. A huge explosion! My base cleared of all life. All is over, I was so close... so close. As I lie there in bloody chucks, watching the enemy grab back his flag and snatching ours, hearing the vicious taunts from them. I think to myself, damn, I love this game.
