Hey there! I am also the author of The World Could Always use more Heroes (Previously called The Second Generation), so I will likely be working on both fics at the same time, so updates might be slow. I know its kinda a bad idea to work on two fics at once but I just wanted to write about something like this for a long time so whatever. As I said, updates MIGHT be a bit slow since i'll be working on both fics, or sometimes i'll feel lazy and won't want to write, or i'll have a lot of school work to do. Anyways, on with the story. The following bit is just introduction, i'll move on to the interesting stuff soon enough. OH AND THIS MAY CONTAIN SOME SPOILERS TO WHATEVER GAMES I BRING CHARACTERS FROM, SO BE WARNED.
Overwatch was currently set up in Watchpoint Gibraltar. It was a lazy day at the watchpoint and the agents hadn't much to do, or so they thought. Ever since the recall, more and more of the old agents came back. First it was Tracer, then Reinhardt, then Mercy, then McCree, and eventually most of the others came around as well. They had even gotten a few new recruits since then. Genji brought Hanzo and Zenyatta, Mercy brought Pharah, and Zarya, Lucio and Dva joined in eventually, meaning they had more people to fuel their cause. They had gone on missions attempting to protect the world, and it was working. More and more people started supporting them everyday, but even then they operated illegally.
They didn't have any missions for the following days, so they had nothing to do, but that would all change the same day.
"Sooo Winston, what are you working on?" Tracer asked as she came into the gorilla's office.
"Oh nothing much. It's just that i've recently picked up on some strange anomalies, I can't explain what they are, but they're certainly interesting." Winston explained.
"What? And you think those anomalies could be dangerous?"
"Doubt it, they are really faint, they have been growing recently but its nothing major. What really makes them interesting as that they seem to 'branch out' of our reality."
Lena only had a dumbfounded face in return. "Ha, I was afraid you'd be like that Lena. This means that there could be alternate universes, but the evidence is faint, that's all i'm saying." Winston said, amused by Lena's reaction.
"Ohhh, well thats really cool! Good luck! I'm heading down to meet with the others. Reinhardt and Zarya said they would arm wrestle today, and i'm certainly not missing that! You should come too!" Lena cheered.
"Well, let me finish on my research and i'll catch up soon! See you later!" Winston said and dismissed Lena.
"Alright then luv, see ya soon!" Lena finished and she blinked off to see the others.
*Meanwhile, in the Titanfall universe*
It had been a couple months since the destruction of Typhon, and all of the IMCs resources that resided there. It was a huge victory for the Militia, but there is still a long way to go before the IMC is defeated. The battle raged in the planet Angel City. The IMC had once again attacked Angel City in an attempt to retake it from the Militia. The 6-4 had been sent to deal with the Apex Predators that the IMC had sent to attack the city.
Pilot Charles Anderson had been recently inducted into Gate's personal squad.
"Alright, listen up squad. Bear, I want you to get to the high ground and provide suppressive fire with your sniper. Davis, I want you on the frontline, take out as many Apex Predator pilots and grunts as you can. Droz and Charles, you're with me! We'll flank the enemy! Come on stick together!" Gates commanded and the pilots headed off.
"I'm in position!" Bear said and he began firing at some grunts with his Double-Take.
"Alright i'm opening fire!" Davis stated as he set down an A-wall and fired at some pilots with his Spitfire.
"Team, we're behind them! Alright you two, fire at will!" Gates commanded and the 3 began to fire at more pilots, taking them down one by one.
"I'm moving in!" Droz said and he activated his cloak, sneaking behind some grunts, firing at them and dropping them before disappearing once again. Gates stayed behind and provided covering fire.
"Gates, i'm going forward!" Charles said, and Gates nodded in understanding. Charles grappled an enemy pilot and pulled himself to the pilot, kicking him with massive strength and sending him flying. He grappled once more into a wall and began wallrunning, gaining momentum and moving at fast speeds. He propelled himself into an enemy titan and ripped off its battery before grappling off again.
"Agh, that Titan's pissed! I'm pinned down! Sure would be awesome to have phase shift equipped right now!" Charles shouted as the Ion-class titan fired its splitter rifle at Charles location.
"Don't worry I got your back!" Bear reassured. He pulled out his charge rifle and fired at the enemy titan, depleting its shields and lowering its health to half. The ion class titan was stunned for a few seconds.
"I'm calling in my Titan!" Charles warned the others as he marked his location with his wrist device. After a few seconds a Ronin-class titan fell from the sky, crushing the Ion under its feet. Its designation was FT-2422.
"Pilot, I detect you are in distress. Are you ok?" FT asked. "Look under you!" Charles said. "I see." The Ronin replied as he saw the crushed Titan under him.
Charles embarked FT and they ran to the fight. A pilot launched an archer rocket at FT, but he drew his sword and blocked the projectile. Then he fired at the pilot with his leadwall, sending him flying.
"Nice shooting Pilot." FT congratulated as the two continued on their streak. A group of grunts focused on the Ronin-class, but FT's shields took all of the damage and with one swipe of his sword, the grunts were no more. FT and Charles came across a weakened enemy Tone titan.
"Sword core activated." FT said as he empowered his broadsword, and he began slashing at the titan. The Tone dashed backwards and set its particle wall, but FT phase shifted right through and reappeared right in front of the Tone, stabbing it with his sword, and killing the pilot inside.
"Enemy Titan down. Let's proceed- Wait, my scans are detecting a strange anomaly nearby." FT warned. As if on cue, a portal-like rupture appeared out of nowhere.
"What the hell is that!" Charles asked as the portal started sucking them in. "It seems like a rupture in space and time! I cannot explain why this is happening, hold on!" FT replied and he anchored himself with his sword, but the portal's strength was too much, and the two were sucked into it. Right after that, the portal closed.
"Charles! What happened!" Gates said. No response. "Charles do you read!" No response. "Charles, do you copy!" No response yet again.
*Meanwhile, in the Overwatch universe*
A giant portal opened up in the sky above King's Row. A titan came out of it and the portal closed. It was late at night and almost everyone was inside their homes or apartments.
"What just happened FT! Where are we?" Charles asked. "I believe we should focus on the fact that we are falling at high speeds into unknown territory." FT said in response.
"Good point! I'm gonna try to change our position so we land on our feet!" Charles said and he used FT's boosters to rearrange himself.
"Well done Pilot, my suspension systems can now take the fall." FT said. After a few seconds, the two crash-landed into the heart of the city, near a statue of what seemed to be a robot monk.
"Well, now may I ask, where are we?" Charles insisted. "Scanning. We are on planet earth, in Europe, England, to be exact. The year is 2076."
"What? Earth? That planet's been uninhibited for ages! How's that possible? And how's it possible that the year is 2076?" Charles asked.
"I do not know. I predict that rupture may have taken us into an alternate reality. One where Earth is still inhibited, it's the only logical explanation I can come up with." FT replied.
"Great..." Was all Charles could say in return. A few seconds later, a group of shady individuals came out of a nearby building and approached the Titan. They were heavily armed, and wore black masks and gear with red outlines. They clearly weren't expecting to find a giant robot in the scene, as they were pretty confused and speechless.
"What the hell is that thing!?" One of the Talon grunts whispered to another. "What do you think they are after? Who are they?" Charles asked. "Scanning. They appear to be part of a terrorist faction called Talon. Talon is a powerful terrorist organization responsible for multiple deadly attacks on this world. It seems there's a sort of EMP bomb in the garage behind us. They could try to use it against this city." FT replied, awaiting his Pilot's reaction. The Talon grunts heard the Titan speak and began to panic with every word.
"Terrorist organization? That's all I had to hear..." Charles said and he drew his Titan's sword and began approaching the Talon agents.
"Uuuhhhhhh, Reaper! There's a giant robot with a sword here- AAAHHHHH!" The grunts screamed as they were sliced up by a gigantic sword, ending their lives instantly.
"Giant robot? Agh, everyone, head for the bomb..." Reaper commanded and the rest of Talon grunts and himself headed to their objective. When they got there, they saw that there indeed was a giant ass robot near their objective.
Some grunts drew their rocket launchers and fired at the Titan, but the Titan noticed them and blocked their rockets with its sword and fired at them with a giant shotgun.
"So you're the guys trying to blow up a giant EMP bomb in this city? I'm afraid I can't allow that!" Charles said through his Titan's outer speakers. He noticed Reaper trying to sneak up on him, but he sliced at him with his sword. But the Reaper, turned to mist? Reaper reappeared behind the Titan and unloaded his shotguns unto the back of the giant machine.
"Shields depleted, exercise caution." FT warned. "You can say that again." Charles joked. "Shields depleted, exercise caution." FT warned again. Some grunts locked on again with their rocket launchers and fired away while FT was distracted by Reaper.
"Critical damage taken." FT said as a chunk of their health was depleted. Charles countered by sending two arc waves to the Talon grunts, killing them and electrocuting the ones that survived. Only a few grunts and Reaper remained.
"Looks like you're out of forces skull face." Charles taunted. The shadowy figures only grunted and ran back to his troops.
"Everyone, retreat!" Reaper commanded and a dropship landed near them, picking them up and flying away.
"Damn! They got away..." Charles cursed. "Doesn't matter. You still stopped a major terrorist operation." The Ronin congratulated. "Eh, I suppose so. What happens next? We aren't exactly discreet and we are in the middle of a city." Charles asked.
"I do not know, maybe we should seek help from nearby police forces." FT suggested, but before they headed off, a large, white dropship approached them, and a funky looking girl came out of it.
Sooooo what do you guys think of this? Should I continue? Also for those living under a rock this is of course based off Titanfall 2. If you haven't gotten that game what the hell are you doing. The game got fucked over by EA (don't worry dlc is free) and the population isn't looking great now! But its an amazing game and I definitely recommend it. And you don't need to play the first one to understand the second, as the first one had no campaign. If you like fast paced FPS games then this is definitely for you! (Shameless advertising detected). Also, what game characters do you want me to introduce to this fic? Let me know!
