Hey guys. Welcome to the next story. I would have just continued it in the old story, but I wanted to do a lot of different Tf2/ Overwatch crossovers. So I decided to make this a multi-story series. Also if you are reading this story before my old one, I strongly recommend you go read my first story "Out of the Frying Pan and Into the Fire". A lot of things will make more sense. Anyways enjoy the second story in the Engi and Pyro saga. :)
Chapter 1 New Home, New Life
Teufort was set a blaze. Every single little memory was reduced to nothing but ash. A large cloud of smoke filled the sky. The cause of this disaster was intentional. A match was used to set the building ablaze. While the walls and floor were doused in gasoline. The culprits were never found because they weren't in that time. All went to the future.
Engi was being sent through time. A lot of things were going past him, all too fast to see. He did a glimpse of one of the images. It looked like Vietnam. He didn't care where he ended up as long as it was with his family. Engi then came out of the flashing images to find himself falling face first onto a floor. "Ow. What the hell?" Engi said trying to regain his footing. He raised his head to see everyone standing around him. Pyro was also on the ground recovering from his fall. Tracer was helping Pyro until she heard Engi. She turned her body, accidentally hitting Pyro in the side of the head with her elbow, and yelled, "Engi!" before blinking by his side hugging him while he tried to get up. Engi started to push her off of him until he was standing up straight. Once he stood flat on his feet, he turned to Tracer and bear hugged her. She felt some breath escape her body. She didn't mind, she was just happy he made it through. Once Engi loosened his grip on her he turned and looked at the group to see if everyone else made it through. "Is everyone accounted for?" Engi asked in hope of a "yes". "Ja. Everyone looks to be here." Medic explained. "Good. I was hoping nothing went wrong." Engi said with a sigh of relief.
Tracer then grabbed his hand "Come on. I've been dying to show you around 'luv." She began pulling his hand when she turned to see Pyro rubbing his now bruised skull. "Oh i'm so sorry Pyro!" She exclaimed. Pyro looked at her, gazing into her soul. He began to mumble something. "Pyro i'm not even going to translate that." Engi scolded. Pyro then groaned and took both of his hands. Making one into a fist and one as if he holding a lever next to his fist. As the turned the "lever" his middle finger slowly raised up. He then put down his hands. Tracer frowned at him. "I said I was sorry 'luv!" She angrily scolded. "MMMPH MMMPH MMMPH MMMPH MMPH MPH!" Pyro yelled under his mask before rubbing his skull once more. Engi sighed, "He said Be more careful." Engi then glared at Pyro. Pyro didn't care, he knew that his brother had translated him wrong. He just got up and leaned against the wall. Everyone kept their mouths shut, being smart enough to stay out of that.
"Well now that...that was covered. We need to deal with two Talon agents." McCree said as he looked around for Widow and Reaper. "And they're gone." McCree said with a sigh. "Most of us should probably patrol around the base making sure they're really gone." Winston explained. "Well what are we waiting for. There are two Talon agents running around who need to be blown up!" Junkrat exclaimed before laughing hysterically. As he came out of his laugh some of the gang were already leaving the room to patrol around. "Hey you blokes better not steal any of the fun!" Junkrat yelled while hobbling after them.
A few hours passed before everyone gave up the search and assumed that they had left. Tracer and Engi decided to "patrol" together. Frankly all they did was talk to each other. "I think everyone else is done looking for them." Tracer said. "Well then, can you give me a tour." Engi said before smiling warmly. "I'd be honored 'luv." Tracer responded while kissing Engi on the cheek. "Actually, first you have to meet the rest of your new team." Tracer exclaimed. Engi's face then became shocked. "Wait. There's more of y'all." Engi confusingly asked. "Yes 'luv. There are more of us." Tracer sarcastically mocked. Engi just sighed So many names to remember. He thought to himself.
Tracer and Engi then gathered the rest of Red team. "You all have to meet your new team." Tracer exclaimed. All of them looked confused. "Haven't we already met them lassy?" Demo asked. "Oh there's more of us 'luv." Tracer replied. "Vwell. Vwat are you vwaiting for? Lead ze vway." Medic commanded. Tracer happily obliged. Guiding the mercenaries through the base and leading them to the rest of the Overwatch team. Before truly looking for the rest of the Overwatch gang, Tracer lead the mercs to the armory so they can put their weapons there. After that they continued to look. "Hey 'luvs. Did you miss us." Tracer proclaimed as she found them. "What are you talking about? You've only been gone a few minutes." said a women in a large winter coat. "Trust me 'luv. We were gone longer." Tracer said with relief in her voice. "Who are these fine gentlemen?" She asked scanning all of them. "Mei, these are our new team members. I would like you to meet Engi, Pyro, Medic, Heavy, Sniper, Spy, Scout, Soldier, and Demo. Guys this is Mei." All of the mercs introduced themselves to their new team member. "So how did you all come to join Overwatch? And why are your clothes so old fashioned?" Mei asked. "Missy. This may seem like something that ain't possible, but were from 1977. Some of your friends traveled back to our time and caused some havoc." "REALLY! Pyro throws an axe at Winston and WE were the ones that started it. You're such a bloody liar!" Tracer interrupted while punching Engi in the arm. Engi just rubbed his shoulder while the rest of the mercs laughed. Engi then turned his attention back to Mei. "Anyways...after it was smoothed over we built a time machine to help them get back, but there were two reasons we came. One is that I fell for one of your friends and two is that we got fired." Engi explained. Mei was a little stunned by all of that information. Once her brain processed all of the information she began to speak, "So who did you fall in love with?" Mei asked. Engi turned towards Tracer and said, "Why, this beautiful woman right here." Tracer blushed a little before kissing Engi. "Well i'm happy for you two, and happy to know we have new members to help fight for this world." Mei smiled before walking away. As Tracer led the mercs to other members of the team Pyro was trailing on his own thoughts. Sweet girl. He thought.
The next two people Tracer introduced the mercs to were Genji and Hanzo. To the mercs Genji looked like a man in some kind of armor. Little did they know, he was a cyborg. As Tracer was introducing Hanzo and Genji to their new teammates Engi cut her off, "I'm sorry to interrupt you Tracer but I think I speak for my whole team when I ask what kind of armor is this guy wearing?" Tracer's eyes went wide. Then she face palmed. "Engi he's not wearing armor. He Is A Cyborg." Tracer said angrily putting her arm down. "Lena it is fine." Genji said. "I had an "accident" when I was younger. Mercy then saved me and turned me into what I am today." He continued. Pyro had then realized how much his brother screwed up. He too face palmed. "I'm sorry partner. I had no idea." Engi said regretting his choice of words. "It is fine. If we are to become teammates, then you must know what I am." Genji explained. He is only human. Genji thought to himself. "This is Hanzo. My brother." Genji introduced. "Well we already have something in common." Engi proclaimed. "And what might that be?" Hanzo asked with his curiosity getting the better of him. "We both have brothers who had "accidents"." Engi responded. Pyro then stood by his brother. "This is Pyro. He is called that because he really likes fire. Also don't make him mad." Engi said. Pyro studied the two, he noticed some tension between the two. Although, he didn't put much thought into their history. "If you'll excuse us we are going to the battle simulations." Hanzo explained while he and his brother left the room.
"Is that all Tracer?" Engi asked hoping she would say yes. She giggled. "Nope. Follow me." She answered. Engi sighed. Tracer then took them to the mess hall where they found Lucio and D. Va. D. Va was sitting at the table playing a little game pad. Lucio was listening to some music. Tracer walked up to Lucio first, knowing he would be more conversational. "Hey Lucio." Tracer began. Lucio looked up and saw Tracer, he then took off his headphones. "Oh hey Trace. Who are these guys? New recruits?" Lucio asked. "Exactly who they are 'luv." Tracer replied before introducing Red team to him. "Nice to meet you all. I'm Lucio. My music has the ability to speed up natural healing and speed." He explained. "What was that about speed?" Scout asked. "See for yourself." Lucio answered before grabbing his weapon. He then turned it on, it began playing a fast pace music. He then turned it up to the max volume. "Run across the room." Lucio commanded Scout. Scout then began to run to the end of the room. He ran much faster than what he was used to. In fact it seemed like he had blinked before reaching the end of the room...right before hitting a wall. Ignoring his pain he stood back up. Everyone was laughing so hard they couldn't stand. Scout ignored them and looked at Lucio with amazement, "Holy Stupid Magic Crap! You Are A Freakin' WIZARD!" Scout yelled. Everyone calmed down from their belly laughs. "In all seriousness you're pretty fast, maybe even faster than Trace." Lucio mocked. "I wouldn't go that far 'luv." Tracer barked. Lucio then laughed at her and excused himself.
Tracer then walked over to D. Va who was still focusing on her game pad. "D. Va " Tracer said trying to get her attention. "Mmhmm." she replied. "I would like you to meet your new teammates." Tracer said while introducing the mercs to her. She basically ignored them. She didn't say a word, didn't even look up. She just raised her hand and waived at them. Tracer sighed in frustration at the sight. The Red team all looked at each other thinking on how much ruder this girl could get. Pyro had enough, he couldn't stand how rude this girl was being to them. Pyro approached her and took the game pad out of her hand. "HEY GIVE IT!" she yelled while trying to tackle Pyro to get her game pad back. Pyro just held her away with one hand. She wasn't exactly strong, so Pyro didn't have a hard time holding her back. Pyro then looked at the game pad and began to squeeze it in his hand. He squeezed harder and harder until the game pad was reduced to cheap plastic. Seeing him break her game pad, began to start swinging at Pyro making a few hits while swearing him out in Korean. Pyro took the hits without even flinching, still holding her away with one arm. After a few minutes she gave up, as she saw that Pyro wasn't exactly hurt by her efforts. "You're so lucky i'm not in my mech." she grunted before crossing her arms and pouting like a child. "Mmmph mmmph mmph mmph mmmmph." Pyro mumbled. "I can't understand you idiot." she barked. "He said Next time don't be rude." Engi translated. D. Va just glared at Pyro trying to intimidate him. Pyro just turned away and walked to the door. Nice one Pyro. Just lost a possible friend. He thought to himself.
"Is that all?" Engi whispered to Tracer. "No." Tracer sighed. "Lead the way I guess." Engi whispered. Tracer then guided the mercs to the gym where she knew Zarya would be. Once they got there they saw Zarya lifting a barbell. The barbell must have had at least 450 pounds on it. "Zarya." Tracer called. Zarya looked over and saw Tracer along with the mercs. She put the barbell down. "Who are these men?" Zarya asked. Tracer then began to introduce the mercs to her. Once everyone was introduced Zarya scanned all of them until her eyes landed on Scout. "Look at you. So weak. Such skinny arms. Tracer is stronger then you." Zarya proclaimed with confidence. Scout was now offended by her words. "Fine put fifty pounds on that barbell. When I lift it and Tracer can't it will prove i'm stronger." Scout proclaimed. Zarya laughed, but put fifty pounds on the bar. Scout walked over to the bar and grabbed it. He huffed for a few seconds, then he began to lift the bar. Although he did struggle for a few seconds. "Top that brit." Scout taunted with sweat dripping from his head. Tracer just grinned and walked to the bar lifting it with ease. All the mercs jaws dropped when Tracer lifted it with ease. Tracer just laughed at their reactions, "Looks like i'm stronger 'luv." Tracer mocked. "You may be stronger, but i'm still faster." Scout said trying to make a quick comeback. "See, you need arms like him." Zarya said while pointing at Heavy. "Look at him, so strong and muscular." Zarya exclaimed. "You are Russian also?" Heavy asked. "Yes. My secret to strength. Sit ups, Push ups, and plenty of juice." Zarya explained. Heavy then laughed, "Yes. Heavy likes this woman." Heavy said. Zarya smiled. "Come to gym tomorrow. We will get good work out." She demanded. "Da. Heavy will come." Heavy replied. Tracer then excused them all before looking for Zenyatta.
They came upon Zenyatta. He was in a meditation state. "Hey Zenny." Tracer said waving to Zenyatta. Zenyatta turned his and looked at Tracer. "Peace be upon you Tracer. Who are these gentlemen?" He asked. Tracer once again introduced the mercs. This is starting to get old. She thought. "So... is he a cyborg too?" Engi asked. "No 'luv. He's what we call an omnic." Tracer answered. "So a robot then?" Engi replied. "No 'Luv. Omnics are much more intelligent than a regular robot." Tracer barked. "I wouldn't expect you to understand. I don't think you've ever seen a robot 'luv." All the mercs looked at each other and chuckled. "Lena have you ever read about the Gravel Wars?" Engi asked with a grin. "Not really no." Tracer replied. "Well...we've fought robots before. Hell we kicked their metallic asses." Engi explained. "You're so full of it Engi." Tracer proclaimed. Engi just made his grin more visible. Tracer then looked at Medic. "Is he really telling the truth?" She asked. "Ja. Vwe made a lot of money from zat job." Medic explained. "Well i'll be damned." Tracer said with a chuckle. Zenyatta then approached Pyro. "I sense a disturbance in your soul." Looking Pyro in his masked covered eyes. Pyro wasn't paying attention to Zenyatta, he was too focused on trying to figure out on how he was levitating. "You were in a great accident." Zenyatta said. At hearing this Pyro attention went fully to Zenyatta. How the hell did he know? He thought. "Someone made you into what you are." Zenyatta explained further. Pyro then stood tall, revealing him to be much taller than Zenyatta originally thought. "Only peace will calm your soul." Zenyatta told Pyro. Pyro was starting to get sick of what he had to say. He walked to the door trying to storm out of the room, but when he got to the door he realized that it didn't have a door knob. Pyro was confused. He began to scratch his head while he looked for a way to open it. Tracer giggled. "Pyro you need a key card for that door." She explained before walking over to door and swiping her card.
Conveniently enough, it was the training room, and Pharah was in it. "Oh well that helps." Tracer said. Tracer then excused herself and the mercs. Zenyatta returned to his meditation. "JUSTICE RAINS FROM ABOVE!" Pharah yelled as rockets came from every part of her suit, hitting the targets and turning them to dust. The mercs stood there dumbfounded. "Remind me not to piss off that lassy." Demo said to Soldier with his eye wide. "Same here." Soldier responded. Tracer went to the training rooms control panel and turned it all off. Pharah saw that everything was turning off and looked at the panel. She saw Tracer waving at her with 9 men behind her. She slowly descended from the air and walked over to them. "Tracer are these new recruits? Why do they have such old fashioned equipment?" Pharah asked. "It's a long story 'luv. I'll tell you later. As of right now though I would like you to meet your new teammates." Tracer said. All the mercs introduced themselves. By now though, they were starting to get sick of it. "Always nice to have new recruits to train. What are your abilities?" Pharah asked scanning every single one of them. "Our names kinda explain what we do, but I built stuff like sentries, dispensers, and teleporters." Engi explained. "I have an arsenal of explosive weaponry." Demo said. "I have the ability to go invisible and disguise as the enemy." Spy said. "I am Heavy weapons guy." Heavy said. "My name says it all." Medic proclaimed. "I can run fast. Makes me a harder target to hit. Also i'm really strong." Scout boasted. "Best Sniper you'll ever meet mate." Sniper claimed. "I use my rocket launcher to turn any maggot into mush." Soldier said. Pharah then looked at Pyro who was being silent. "What about him?" Pharah asked with her eyes locked on Pyro. "He just really likes fire." Medic answered. "Also he can reflect rockets and any other projectile back to the person zat shot it." He continued. "Okay. Reflect my rockets at the target." Pharah demanded while she pointed to a target. "Uhh...Pharah is it? He needs his flamethrower to be able to do that." Engi remarked. "Lena have they met the entire team?" Pharah asked. "Not yet. They still need to meet Roadhog and Symmetra." Tracer answered. Thank God. Only two more. Engi thought to himself. "Fine. Pyro. I want you to be here at 0900 hours. Understood." Pharah demanded. Pyro just nodded. Might as well make some friends. He thought.
Tracer excused herself and the mercs to go look for Symmetra. After about ten minuets of searching through the base Tracer found out that she was sleeping and decided to introduce the mercs later. She then went to look for Roadhog, which wasn't really a challenge. She just listened for Junkrat's loud voice. As they were walking they heard Junkrat laughing. His psychotic laughs echoed through the halls. As they approached their location they heard Junkrat talking to someone. "No, No, NO! Listen here you bloke! We went back in time. There's someone who loves explosive as much as me. Someone who finally shares my genius." Junkrat explained. "I don't understand. Explain one more time." Another voice, almost as rough as Pyro's, started to say. The gang walked around the corner to see Junkrat talking to a very large man in a mask that looked like the face of a pig. The man also had a pig face tattooed on his stomach. "Well if you would shut up and list-" The large man grabbed Junkrat by the throat. "You should be the last person to be telling me to shut up Jamison!" "Alright Alright I stepped out of line. Sorry mate." Junkrat struggled to say. The large man let him go. "Okay now listen we went back to 1977." Junkrat claimed. "I don't believe you." The large man said. "He's not lying 'luv." Tracer said interrupting the two. The large man then looked at Tracer and the group behind her. "Guess I was wrong." The man said. "SEE! SEE! I TOLD YOU YA BLOKE!" Junkrat yelled.
Tracer then introduced the mercs. "This is Roadhog 'luvs. Junkrat's best friend." Tracer told them. Junkrat walked straight to Demo. "This is the guy Hog. The guy that loves explosives as much as me." Junkrat said while bringing Demo in front of Roadhog. "So...you were the one who killed Jamie?" Roadhog asked leaning over Demo. Demo gulped in fear, but answered. Roadhog then grabbed Demo by the throat and lifted him off the ground. "You ever do something like that again, I won't be so forgiving." Roadhog was going to continue, but was interrupted by someone tapping on his shoulder. He turned his head to see Pyro. "Mmmph mmph mmph mmph." Pyro mumbled. "He said you have five seconds to let him go." Engi translated grinning. "Or what?" Roadhog said leaning over Pyro, still holding Demo by the throat. Pyro was counting in his mind. Once he got to five he leaned back and swung at Roadhog. Pyro's swing made contact, knocking the large man off his feet. The force of Pyro's swing was enough to kill a man. Although, Roadhog was a very large man and was able to take the hit and survive. Demo was release from his grip. Grasping his throat and gasping for air. Pyro then walked over to Roadhog and leaned over him. "Mmmph mmph mmmmph mmph. Mph, mph mmmph mmmmmph." Pyro mumbled while pointing his finger as Roadhog. Engi couldn't help but laugh at what Pyro had said. Roadhog looked to Engi for a translation. "He said, Listen here fat ass. YOU ever do something like THAT again. I, won't be so forgiving. Understood." "WoahWoahWoahWoah. We're all teammates here. No need to kill each other. Let's save the fun for our enemies. As I always say, How can we stand here knowing there's someone that needs to be blown up." Junkrat said before laughing hysterically. Pyro then outstretched his hand to help Roadhog up. Roadhog grabbed his hand being helped to his feet. The punch made Roadhog a little dizzy, he felt the room spinning around him. Pyro then mumbled some more. "He said, Listen I don't want to kill anyone. Just as you were I was protecting a friend, but if were going to be teammates we don't need to have fights like this. I wish to not have this happen again." Engi translated. Roadhog looked at Pyro. He may have been pissed or terrified, Pyro didn't know. "I agree." Roadhog finally said. "Come on Jamie, I need some ice." Roadhog demanded while he and Junkrat left the room.
"Well that's everyone excluding Symmetra." Tracer said. "Vwhy have vwe not met Symmetra?" Medic asked. "She's sleeping 'luv. It's already ten o'clock." Tracer answered. "Well can you show us where we sleep?" Engi asked. "We need to go to Winston to get your key cards." Tracer answered. While she led the mercs to Winston's lab. "Oh Winston. I have a treat for you." Tracer mocked. "I told you Lena, No bananas!" Winston barked. "I'm just teasing 'luv. Our new recruits need their key cards." Tracer explained. "Ahh yes. That's right." Winston was sitting at his desk eating a jar of peanut butter. "They're...right here." Winston said as he got up and walked to the nine new keycards. He grabbed them and handed them to Tracer. "You know how to find the rooms. I need you to show them how." Winston commanded. "Can't you just do it. You're already right here." Tracer whined. "Lena just please do it. I need to add them to Athena's data base. Oh, which reminds me. I need all of you in here first thing in the mourning." Winston said as he looked at the nine mercs. "What if we can't find our way laddy." Demo asked, while it hurt to speak. "Just ask around. You have met the rest of your new team right?" Winston asked. The mercs nodded. "Good. Lena please show them how." Winston commanded. Tracer then sighed and pouted like a child. "Alright big guy." Tracer groaned. Winston smiled before turning back to his desk. "Cheers Winston." Tracer said as she and the mercs left the room. Tracer guided them to their individual rooms. Telling them that the numbers on their key card was their room numbers. One by one the mercs entered their new rooms. Awaiting the future ahead.
Conveniently enough the last two to get to their new rooms were Engi and Pyro. "Guess were right next to each other 'luvs." Tracer joyfully said. Tracer's room was in between Engi and Pyro's. "Well then. Guess we'll so you tomorrow. What time we supposed to wake up." Engi asked. "About eight." Tracer answered. "Alrighty then. Goodnight Lena." Engi said tipping his helmet. "Night Engi, Night Pyro." Tracer said while walking into her room. Pyro waved goodnight to her, before he too walked into his room. Engi then swiped his key card and walked into his room. The room was very bland looking. One bed, A desk, bathroom, a nightstand, and an alarm clock. "Least some Privacy." Engi found himself saying. He then walked into his bathroom. He saw that there was a shower. Can't even remember the last time I showered. I must smell like hell. He thought. After a quick sigh, he undressed and hopped into the shower. He cleansed his body before turning off the water and drying off. He put his pants and undershirt back on before climbing into his new bed. He looked at his clock which now said 10:45. He then closed his eyes. Welcome to a new life. He thought before drifting into sleep.
