Hey guys GameQ here, with the new chapter y'all been waiting for, chapter 5. Sorry for the wait but you readers should know by now that I am slow in writing. Last chapter I've noticed some people compliment about how I wrote Tracer's dialogue, which made me wonder if i've been writing her the wrong way. I tried writing her the same way in this chapter, but I don't think I did it well. Time for reviews.

Generic engineer: Is this the real GameQ?

Ummm...yes? I'm kidding, yeah this is the real GameQ. Just writing a bit differently from before.

Treefrogger: Ya know this is better than the original.

That's the goal here, thank you.

randomguy789: NOTICE ME PLEASE

I DEEM YOU NOTICED!

A cheap suit: I'm being honest, I am really happy you have returned !

Thank you, that means a lot to me.

Okay no more reviews, let's get to it.

I now give you chapter 5, I hope you enjoy.

Edit: Apparently Scout can't count to four, much like Valve who can't count to 3. Mistake fixed.


Time Error

Chapter 5

Day 2

Engineer had woken from his sleep, his vision being blurry for the moment. He sat himself up and rubbed his eyes as an attempt to clear his vision, he then rotated his body and had his feet touch the cold floor. The sudden cold shivered Engie's body to waken and Engineer's eyes started working full time.

Engineer gasped and his heart skipped a beat when he saw that he was not in his regular room. For a moment Engie sat there forgetting the events that took place yesterday, until he saw the invention that started it all, the TTPB. Now remembering everything that took place that lead him in the room, he calmed down.

Standing up, Engineer stretched his body and limbs before heading to the bathroom to do his business for the morning. After he got out of the bathroom, Engie decided to change out of his sleeping clothes. He walked to the duffle bag and started digging in new clothes to wear. As he picked out his clothes, he heard a knock on his door.

"Engie! Are you awake!? We're getting attack by Talon again! We already lost some of our own!" Tracer's voice was so loud it and sounded so real that it caused Engineer to go into overdrive.

"Tracer! Don't go saying such thing like that!" Symmetra scolded, only making Tracer giggle. Suddenly both agents heard lots of ruckus behind the door, then it slid open with Engineer running out with shotgun in hand. Though Engie did not look like he was in his prime form. Tracer burst out laughing at the sight, Symmetra looking away with red covering her cheeks

Engineer was still in his shorts, had his shoes on without any socks, his helmet on but his goggles clumsily put on, and he was shirtless. He was breathing in a fast past and his eyes darted around in search for the enemy, with his shotgun barrel shifting left and right.

"Where!? Where are they!?" Engineer shouted, but did not help Tracer as she fell to her knees laughing. Engineer looked at her confused before looking at Symmetra, only to be more confused of why she wasn't facing him.

"What's got her laughing so hard?"

"Y-you Engineer…" Symmetra stuttered.

"Huh?" Engineer leaned towards her a bit, not hearing what she said.

"What Tracer said before…she was kidding." Symmetra answered while inching a little bit backwards. Engineer jaw dropped realizing he's been tricked, by such a dumb prank.

"Damn you Lena! The next time you're in need of saving, I'll be sitting on chair and a bottle in hand and watch the show!" Tracer's laugh dissipated to little giggles as she wiped a tear away.

"Yeah yeah you hate me, now put some clothes on will ya?" Tracer asked while eyeing him up and down. Engineer growled at her in response.

"I put on what I could! You're both lucky I didn't decide to come out in only my under garments!" Engineer yelled back before stomping back into his room and closing the door. Symmetra finally being able to look let out a sigh of relief, but her heart still raced.

"I suppose we'll leave ya be then! Just wanted to see if you were awake is all! See ya!" Tracer said before walking away, with Symmetra walking beside. As the two agents walked, Tracer couldn't help but wonder about something, then a smirk came upon her lips.

"So Satya, you caught a glimpse of Engie's bod?" Tracer asked, Symmetra's eyes widening from her question. "I have to say, he's gotta nice figure." Tracer added.

"Lena! How dare you take advantage and stare at him like that."

"Don't be a hypocrite Satya, I saw you peaking at him too." Tracer said with a playful smirk on still plastered on her lips. Symmetra tried to talk back but held it in knowing Tracer had her, she did peak a few. While Engineer wasn't completely built and all muscle, he isn't a twig either.

But then she recalled his metal arm, during the fight last night and from this morning, she never saw them until he took his gloves off. She wondered what happened to his arm, was it an accident or was it during his time of duty. Symmetra remained silent as she continued to think of Engineer, until Tracer brought her back.

"No way…" Tracer suddenly stopped and stared at her in awe, Symmetra looking at her puzzled. "Satya." Tracer blinked closer to her, "Do you fancy Engineer?"

"What!?" Satya's mind screamed.

"No!" Symmetra denied.

"Doubt it."

"L-Lena please, I've only just met him yesterday. Don't be making these foolish theories."

"Then why were you blushing?"

"How could I not blush? A man who was barely dressed was standing 10 inches away from me! Any woman would have had the same reaction."

"But I wasn't blushing."

"You are different, now stop messing with me. I have no feelings for him." Symmetra finished with her expression turning serious.

"Okay luv' sorry for troubling you." Tracer apologized, but her smirk never leaving.

Engineer was still in his room grumbling, now realizing how stupid he must have looked in front of the two ladies, especially since he was nearly naked. He sat on his bed sulking before he breathed a whiff of his scent and recoiled by gagging.

"God I hope they didn't smell me." Engineer prayed, then walking towards the bathroom to cleanse himself from the stench. After sometime in the shower Engineer exited from the bathroom, then headed towards his bed where he left the clothes he picked out. A couple minutes later he exited out of his room wearing dark blue pants, a white T-shirt, and a blue buttoned shirt to go over his white shirt.

Engineer looked left and right, not really sure which way to go, so he chanced it and picked to go right. While he kept walking, he heard some voices down the hall and quickened his pace. He was hoping to see Tracer and Symmetra, but instead saw Pharah and Mercy chatting away. They weren't in their battle suits, but in their regular clothes. Pharah and Mercy saw Engineer and waved for him to join.

"Good morning Engineer, I hope you slept well." Mercy was the first to speak. "I see you also made use with the clothes we lend you, seems like a perfect fit." She added.

"Yeah I slept good, and thanks for the clothes, I would have brought mine if I had known I'd be sent here." Engineer thanked. "Though I did have one hell of a wakeup call." Pharah tilted her head, perplexed by this.

"Wakeup call? What do you mean? We never told her to do a wakeup call for you." She asked. Engineer gasped in reply, then gritted his teeth with fire in his eyes.

"Ohhh she's gonna receive the bull's horns now." Engineer's mind declared.

"Tracer knocked on my door screaming bloody murder 'Talon is attacking again!', nearly gave me a heart attack." Engineer explained, Mercy shook her head with a sigh, rubbing her forehead thinking of how childish Tracer can be despite her age.

"I apologize Engineer, Tracer can be like that sometimes."

"I believe you mean all the time Mercy." Pharah put in, receiving an agreeing nod from Mercy. Engineer let out a chuckle which gained the two heroes attention.

"Is alright Mercy, Pharah. Back in my time, I already deal with the same type of person."

"Someone else who is the same as Tracer? Kära Gud…" Mercy said with a tone of horror in her voice, her body nearly trembling.

"Two Tracers? No thank you." Pharah thought.

"Heheheh yeah I know right? Now imagine if they met, it'd be hell." Engineer said.

"You're talkin' about Scout right!?" Tracer suddenly piped in, her body language clearly showing excitement.

"Speak of the devil." Engineer looked at Tracer grin.

"You are talkin' about Scout are ya? You talked about him to me before, I wish you would tell me more about him!" Tracer said.

"What's with this sudden interest in him? You'd think you wouldn't be so interested in him since he would be as annoying as you, it'd be like a competition." Engineer thought aloud.

"Not really how I see it Engie, just the thought of someone who is as energetic as me, and as fast as me, it'd be nice to meet someone who can keep up you know?" Tracer ended with a small smile on her face.

"I suppose I can understand that, too bad you won't see him though. As far as I know, I may be the only one to be able to travel time all the way to this year." Engineer said, earning a disappointed look from Tracer, it looked like she was counting on Scout to somehow appear here.

"Anyway where is Symmetra? Thought she was with you." Engineer asked.

"Oh she is in our little cafeteria, getting some breakfast. I separated from her to see if you were out of your room." Tracer explained. "Speaking of breakfast, aren't you hungry Engie? I don't think you ate anything yesterday." In response to that, Engineer's stomach grumbled. Engineer let out an embarrassed chuckle and he looked back at Tracer.

"Mind showing me the way to the cafeteria?" Tracer let out a small laugh before pulling Engineer with her, then running towards the direction of the cafeteria. Mercy and Pharah watched the two until they turned a corner.

"Mind as well head to the cafeteria, I don't start my training until later." Pharah said.

"I'll go with you." Mercy joined.

*1968*

The Red team and Blu team were currently doing the Payload race in Hightower, their weapons firing and blood pumping with adrenaline, but the Red team were feeling more pumped up this round. Their last match in 2fort was a success for once, which had the Blu team on the edge.

While they didn't win the match, the Blu team didn't win either. It turned into a stalemate because both scouts captured the intelligence and turned it in simultaneously. Though it was a stalemate, the Red team weren't going to be ungrateful, and celebrated back in their base. They finally ended the Blu's winning streak, and man did they enjoy hearing the shocked tone in the Administrator's voice. And now that they ended the winning streak, they knew they could do more, and aimed to be the winners this time.

Scout was currently running back to the cart, after respawning from behind shot in the head from a sniper bullet.

"Yo Snipes! Waste the blu sniper already or else I can't stay on the cart!" Scout shouted through his headset's mic.

"Sorry mate, had some trouble with a blu frenchie, I'll take care of the bugger." Sniper responded as he took position on a high balcony next to the bomb site.

"You better!" Scout said as he continued his way to the cart, only to be stopped by a baseball flying to his face. Scout ducked and then saw a baseball bat swinging at him, eyes widening Scout quickly jumped back but was shot in midair on the chest. Scout fell to the dirt with a groan before quickly picking himself up, knowing he wouldn't be given the time to breathe. And he was right when jumped out of the way from another bullet.

After regaining himself, he looked to see his opponent, the Blu Scout. Scout glared at his counterpart, the other did the same. The two scouts have a huge rivalry against each other, while the Blu Scout still out skills Scout, the enemy scout will admit that the Red scout is becoming more of a challenge now.

"I have to say Red, you're slowly startin' to get on my nerves, you're startin' to think that you guys can actually beat us now huh? Well bad news, you ain't! You noobs just got lucky last match!" The Blu Scout sneered.

"Pfft please, you Blu's are nothing to us now, and I know behind that tough talk you're just a scaredy cat because you know we getting' better!" Scout mocked, the Blu Scout gritted his teeth in anger.

"Now don't you have a corner to go cry in? Or you wishing to get a beaten from me?" Scout asked with a smirk on his lips, setting his bat against his shoulders waiting for the Blu Scout's reply. The Blu Scout took out his bat and started walking towards Scout.

"You forgettin' your place Red…WHICH IS UNDER MY FEET!" Blu Scout yelled before running at Scout in full speed. Scout stood his ground until the Blu scout swung his bat, Scout leaped back dodging the first, then thrusts his two legs back causing him to jump in midair and back to his opponent.

The Blu Scout jumped at him again with his hands gripping the bat tight, Scout mimicked the same move, readying to swing his bat. As soon as they were close to each other, they swung with all their might and their metal bats collided together. The two runners stood up front, face to face, Scout glared at his Blu counterpart.

"We're no longer yo freakin stepping rock! And I'm gunna prove it!" Scout yelled with a set of fire in his eyes, the Blu Scout did nothing but smirk. Yet before either runners could continue their fight, they started to notice something different. They atmosphere which was usually filled with gunshots and battle cries were not filled with nothing but the wind, which had some sort of…spooky feeling to it. Heavy and Medic were next to each other when the environment started to change.

"Ohh something doesn't feel right…" Heavy spoke with uneasiness, Medic agreed while stepping a bit closer to his giant comrade. The sun had suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a full moon, catching all of the mercenaries off guard. Soldier was in the process of pulling a grenade pin from the Blu soldier's chest after he was put in a headlock but was interrupted when he also felt the change in the battlefield.

"This change in my battlefield…could it be him?" Soldier thought as he yanked his head out of the headlock, the sudden change in the atmosphere caused the Blu soldier's grip to loosen.

"Is it him?" Soldier's Blu counterpart asked.

"It may be, the full moon and the sudden spookiness has his wizard ass written all over it." Soldier answered, the Blu soldier growled.

"Damn it!"

The two runners had stepped away from each other, looking around as the day turned to night, the battlegrounds were starting to be covered by groggy mist.

"Oh great, Hoodini is back." Scout said with sarcasm, the Blu Scout groaned.

"Ugh you gotta be kidding me!"

Suddenly smoke bursts right in front of then, followed by an all too familiar voice.

"MERASMUS! HAS COME!" The wizard yelled as he appeared in the midst of the smoke, and now stood in front of the two fastest runners. "And what do we have here? Two flimsy mortals stand in front of me?"

Scout and Blu Scout glared at their new opponent, a new goal set in mind.

"Hold up, did he just call us flimsy?" Blu Scout questioned.

"Truce till we waste em'?" Scout offered.

"Hell yeah."

"Let's get em'!" Both yelled in unison.

"Out of my way!" Merasmus shouted before bringing his staff upon them and emitting an explosion. Both scouts jumped out of harm's way in time, right before running back at the evil wizard. The other mercs knew the drill and stopped fighting each other and concentrated fire on Merasmus.

"FOOLS! I am Merasmus! I cannot be taken down by such weak-OW!" Scout had just struck Merasmus across the face with his bat, followed by another hit from the Blu scout to which Merasmus let out another pained cry. Both scouts landed next to each other with smirks on their faces before turning to look at Merasmus.

"Who's flimsy now huh?" Scout taunted.

"Ha!" Blu Scout laughed while fist bumping Scout, making Merasmus irritated.

"You both will pay gravely for what you did! AGH!" Merasmus yelled as both Pyros set him to flames with their flamethrowers. "Where does fire flow, mysterious masked one?" Merasmus question while casting a spell on the Red Pyro, and all of a sudden Pyro was overwhelmed by wild bats and was carried up to the air while being attacked by each individual bat.

"MMPH!"

"HAHAHA Yes upward!" Merasmus felt a sharp pain on his leg , he looked down to see the Blu pyro resorted to using his axe. "How about I send you to a place where you will fit in just fine!" Merasmus casted a portal spell below the Blu pyro and hands burst from the ground and latched on the Blu fire freak, then pulling it down deep into the ground.

"MMPH MMMMMMPH!"

"INTO THE DEPTHS OF HELL YOU GO! HAHAHA!" Merasmus cackled before turning back to the two scouts.

"And now for you two!" Merasmus spoke as he raised his wooden staff, both scouts cocked their scatterguns out and began shooting at Merasmus but with no bullet effecting him.

"Oh shit, we're screwed!"

"Yeah no shit." Blu Scout remarked.

Merasmus swung his staff down and an explosion of fire bursts from where Scout and Blu Scout stood. Blu Scout was lucky enough to jump away in time with only some burn marks on him, but Scout wasn't so fortunate. The blast sent him off the cliff but he was able to hop back to the cliff edge and hang on to it, but he struggled to get up. Blu Scout noticed this and began running his way.

"Hold on I'm coming!" Blu Scout yelled, quickly making his way to his Red counterpart. But Merasmus was about to finish him off.

"This is farewell to you weakling! And here is your farewell gift!" Merasmus casts a spell towards Scout, with the intention of killing Scout, but was met with a different result. A light blue orb flew towards Scout and once it touched him, he disappeared from sight in a bright flash. Merasmus was expecting his spell to be more destructive.

"Wait what?" Merasmus said confusingly.

"I thought for sure I casted a destructive spell on him…unless I…" Merasmus' thoughts were interrupted by the Blu Scout who yelled at him.

"Hey! For a stupid wizard, you got some nerve to be stealing my frickin' kill! I was supposed to kill him! Now you will die in his place!" Blu Scout roared at he took out his metal bat again, his eyes filled with revenge.

"HA! As if you can kill me! I am immortal! AH!" Merasmus yelped as Soldier landed on his head and began whacking him nonstop with his shovel.

"Give us back our Scout you sad excuse of a magician! Or else I will pull a rabbit out of your ass!" Soldier threatened.

"ARGH! I hate you so much Soldier!" Merasmus yelled in pain.

*Scout*

"Ahhhhh!" Scout yelled in terror as he fell sideways in a tunnel made of light, falling towards a bright portal at the end. "What the hell is going on!?" Scout shouted, knowing he probably won't get an answer.

Scout could see that he was getting closer towards the portal at the end of the tunnel and braced himself, but felt his items fall off him. Scout looked back and saw his Scattergun, Pistol, Baseball Bat, and Bonk slowly flying away from him.

"Huh? No! You guys are with me on this!" Scout started squirming around to try getting closer to his weapons as an act of desperation, he could feel the portal getting closer. And to his surprise it was working, he first grabbed his Scattergun.

"One…"Scout counted as begun to reach for his pistol, then successfully grabbing it.

"Two…" Scout snatched his bat next, his last item was the Bonk!

"Three…" Scout saw that Bonk! was too far away for him to reach, so Scout resorted to moving his body in a swim-like motion. It proved triumph as Scout was getting closer to his Bonk!, but the portal was right behind him. Chancing it, Scout stretched his arm out and reached for the Bonk! that was right at his finger tips.

"Four…!" Scout grinned as he grasped his favorite soda can at the last moment before the portal behind him consumed him, and he was sent to a world he has never dreamed of seeing before.

*2076*

"Ahh, my stomach is full. Thanks for the breakfast." Engineer said as dusted some crumbs off of his shirt.

"No prob Engie!" Tracer said while giving him a thumbs up.

"It's the least we can do for you after you helped us out." Symmetra spoke, only making Engineer chuckle.

"I didn't ask for any payment, but thank you kindly." Engineer thanked with a warm smile, Symmetra had to look away for a moment when her heart started to flutter again.

"Why?" She wondered again.

"Actually now that I remember, may I ask why you were with Tracer this morning at my room?" Engineer asked out of nowhere.

"Oh!" Symmetra had just remembered why she came to Engineer's room with Tracer, but after Engineer came running out shirtless she immediately forgotten about it. "I wanted to ask if we can continue to show and discuss about your inventions, we were interrupted earlier by a meeting call so we never finished." Symmetra explained.

"Ah that's right I still have to show you my teleporters, guess we better get back to it huh?" Symmetra smiled, happy that Engineer agreed to show her the rest of his buildings.

"Correct, now shall I lead the way?" Symmetra suggested.

"You shall, since I still don't really know my way around this place." Engineer stated while scratching the back of his head with a discomfit smile on his lips. Tracer giggled as she followed the two to Symmetra's lab. Once they reached it Symmetra noticed Tracer was still with them, and she still didn't like the idea of her in her lab.

"You don't have other things to do?" Symmetra asked kindly, but she was about ready to slam the door clothes in front of her.

"Don't be so mean! I'm just as interested in his buildings as you are!" Tracer whined. Symmetra squinted at Tracer and let out an unpleased growl, her agitated side starting to show. Yet before her agitated side could be released she felt a cold metal hand being placed on her shoulder.

"Come on now Symmetra, she didn't misbehave last time we did this, I'm sure she can be let in again. Besides, I'd appreciate more audience for my buildings." Engineer said, making eye contact with Symmetra, a small grin on his lips, not to mention how close he was to her.

It's safe to say Symmetra wasn't ready for that assault and fell in defeat as her heart roared in feelings.

"I-I suppose it's alright, as l-long as she doesn't touch anything." Symmetra stuttered as she retreated further into her lab, leaving behind a confused Engineer and a dying-from-laughter Tracer.

"Jeez Engie, you have her on the run." Tracer thought as she straightened herself from laughing any further. Engineer stared off to where Symmetra walked away and wondered why she left so quickly.

"Was it something I said?" Engineer asked Tracer.

"Clueless as well Engie, but let's just keep going, I wanna see your tele thing." Tracer lied, she knew exactly why Symmetra was acting like that.

"Tracer, it's called a teleporter…"

"Oh whatever, now come on!"

"Alrighty then hold your horses!" Engineer complained as he was pushed by Tracer. Finally, they reached the platform where Engineer stood presenting his buildings before, and so far he has shown his sentry and dispencer, all there is to show now is his teleporters.

"Alright let's get this over with, because I still got my TTPB to fix." Engineer said as he took out his goggles from his back pocket, also taking out his hardhat from nowhere.

"I still wonder how he does it." Tracer was majorly fascinated of how he manages to take out his own things from midair, and thought he should be a magician.

"Ya know, I was wondering why you looked weird, I guess I understand why now, you were missing your hardhat and goggles!" Tracer piped up, but Symmetra disagreed and scolded her.

"Lena! There's no reason for that kind of comment! And he looked handsome without it, so leave him be!" It took a moment till Satya realized what she said and stood frozen in shock. Engineer also stood still as Tracer confirmed something to be sailing in her mind. After a few moments everything unfroze, Engineer chuckled and smiled back at Symmetra.

"Well I wouldn't say handsome but I'll take the compliment, you looking fine yourself Symmetra." Engineer compliments back before turning towards the platform. Symmetra fell back on a chair thankfully, for an unknown reason her legs decided to give in. Tracer took a seat beside her with a very happy smile, she couldn't wait till Engineer leaves the room so they could have a little girl talk. She might invite Mercy and Mei in this too.

Engineer stood back on the platform and saw two of his toolboxes already sitting there.

"Huh? Where did these come from?"

"From the last time you were here…you showed us your Sentry and Dispencer…" Symmetra answered unconsciously, she seem to be in a different world at the moment.

"She still is acting funny, I wonder if she's alright. Maybe it's from last night's fight?" Engineer thought while giving a concerned look at Symmetra.

"Ah now I remember, well the only thing I'd need right now is the dispencer so uhh." Engineer gave the toolbox a kick and the sentry began to transform, he took out his PDA and set the sentry to self destruct. "You're gone." The sentry exploded as soon as he press the button.

"Okay and now for the dispencer." Engineer told himself as he gave another kick to the second toolbox, it begun to open and convert into a dispencer. Once the dispencer was fully built, Engineer took some metal and made preparations to make the teleporters.

"Okay ladies, I present to you my teleporters." Symmetra was brought back to reality by his announcement and readied herself, Tracer sat up waiting with great anticipation. Engineer dropped a toolbox on one side of the platform and dropped another toolbox on the opposite side of the platform. Seconds later the toolboxes began to split open and revealed the teleporters that hid inside.

It expanded itself to human body length and a light pinkish glow at the center, after fully transforming the two teleporters began to spin at a fast rate until it looked like a glowing disc. Symmetra stared at the teleporters, impressed by its design its transformation. Tracer however, wasn't so impressed.

"Huh, thought it would look more cooler." Tracer said with disappointment.

"Well excuse me for not taking the time to decorate it, I wasn't expecting people to complain about its appearance!" Engineer shot with his tone filled with sarcasm.

"You're excused." Tracer shot back, Engineer grumbled under breath regretting his decision of letting Tracer join. Tracer let out a snort but received a swat on the back of her head by Symmetra.

"Ouchie!"

"Stop being rude."

"Yes Mother." Symmetra rolled her eyes at her second name, she has no idea why or how but Tracer just views her to be one. Apparently she is her third mother, and Mercy the second mother, Pharah and Mei are like aunts to her.

"Moving on, I will now demonstrate the teleportation process." Engineer said as we walked up to one of the entrance teleporter, then stood on it. After he stood there for a few he vanished in a short flash then appeared on top of the exit teleporter. And to their surprise, a loaf of bread also appeared, Engineer caught it in midair before disposing it in a nearby trashcan.

"What was that all about?" Tracer asked.

"Bread pops out every now and then whenever somebody uses it. Don't ever eat it unless you wanna be getting sick or die from food poisoning." Engineer said the last part with a stern voice, meaning he was serious about it.

"May I ask why uneatable bread pops out whenever someone uses your teleporter?" Symmetra questioned.

"Ahh one of my coworkers teleported bread for 3 damn days and somehow bread got stuck in the gap between the two teleporters. True story." Engineer said nonchalantly, Tracer tilted her head with so many questions in her head, Symmetra trying to find reasons for such thing.

"You work with strange heroes Engie." Tracer said.

"Yes very questionable heroes." Symmetra added.

"Yeah I know." Engineer replied. "Now, any questions?" Before Symmetra could ask her first question, she was interrupted by Soldier 76…again.

"Pardon the interruption, but something's happening in the city." Soldier 76 stated, Symmetra and Tracer looked at each other while Engineer stepped of the platform and walked towards 76.

"If I may ask, what is it?" Engineer inquired.

"Some sort of commotion just happened in the middle of light intersection, a skinny little man just appeared in a bright flash, wearing a hat with a red shirt." Soldier 76 reported.

"That description sounds awfully familiar to someone I know." Engineer thought.

"Did he happen to have a backpack on him? Running shoes? Short pants?" Engineer questioned.

"Not sure, what I reported was all I know, we're thinking of sending Tracer and I to go investigate." Soldier 76 responded.

"Ohhh another mysterious person to capture? Yay!" Tracer leaped out of her chair filled with excitement.

"I think I'll go to." Engineer said.

"Good idea Engie! You can probably help us catch this guy just in case he starts running." Tracer beamed.

"I don't think so." Soldier 76 denied.

"What?" Engineer queried.

"Wha…huh?" Tracer also asked, her shoulders slouching a bit in disappointment.

"It's not like I hold anything against you Engineer." Soldier 76 said, "Though I still feel like you're hiding something."

"But I can't allow you to go with us, you're still a newcomer to this world and would get lost without Tracer or me." Soldier 76 clarified, Tracer sighed.

"Blimey he has a point Engie…" Engineer looked down to the floor for a moment, then he looked back to 76.

"Right, sorry for getting ahead of myself there, it's just that this person who appeared, he…" Engineer stayed quiet until he shook his head. "Nevermind, forget I said anything."

"What were you gonna say Engineer?" Symmetra asked.

"It's nothing really." Engineer assured. "Anyhow, I must get back to workin' on my TTPB, be safe you two."

"I'll walk you to your room, you may need my help since you still don't know your way around here." Symmetra said as she got off her seat. With that said the two started walking to Engineer's room.

"Alright Tracer, let's move."

"Right with ya!"

*Ten minutes earlier*

In the middle of a light intersection where the cars drove, a bright flash came out of nowhere startling the drivers and causing some cars to crash into each other. This created commotions which attracted the attention of nearby authorities. When the light dissipated a figure stood where the light once was, Scout.

Scout looked around at his surrounding, but not recognizing anything at all. Everything looks so different now, even the cars looked different. The bystanders and passengers in the cars looked at him with fright, scared and clueless of whom he was.

"I know I already said this but…What the hell is going on!?"

To be continued…


Hey guys, GameQ again. Thank you guys for reading this chapter, leave a review if you enjoyed. So Scout finally joins the adventure, sorry for making you guys wait, I know that you guys were eager for Scout's arrival to 2076. I don't plan on sending more mercs to the future however, sorry. I apologize about Merasmus if he sounded OOC, or if he seemed too overpowered. I haven't really played any of the special Halloween events in TF2 so I don't know what he is like.

Thanks again for reading this chapter, you're all awesome! And I will see you guys in the next chapter, good bye!
