Prologue : Life on Fort.

It was an average day at 2fort, the sun shined over the two similar yet different buildings, Both Red And Blu team were in spawn, readying up their equipment and Loading their weapons. Today were focusing on blu team, and one particular member of such team, the Scout.
"Alright chuckle-heads who's ready to go kick some red team butt?" Scout jeered to his colleagues.

"Settle down mate... we haven't even started yet." Sniper attempted to keep the scout from getting to full of himself.

"Whatever old-timer." Scout just shrugged him off, "somebody's got to keep up the moral around here!" he shrugged and rolled his eyes round his head.

"Mission begins in thirty seconds!" The same mysterious voice boomed from the speakers in the corners of the room.

"Do you ever wonder who that is?" Engineer Spoke up, He had been sat on a toolbox looking at a blueprint for some of his machines."Some times I think if its possible to escape this darn place."

"Dangerous thinking that mate." Sniper pointed to the Engineer with a bullet that was pinched between his index finger and thumb.

"Beside who would wanna leave this place?" Soldier decided to poke at the conversation "Plenty of food, Good teammates, no death... uh, technically." All the other team thought he was going to continue but he didn't, he just, stood there with his mouth wide open as if he just blanked out.

"Mission begins in ten seconds!" The voiced boomed from the speakers again, breaking the silence.
"I guess you're right, why would I want to leave here?" The engineer laughed to himself, "I'd be back after the next day from missing you guys." Engineer stood up and picked up his tool box, and readied himself to run out the door, as did the others.

"5!" Everyone tensed, they wanted to be faster then the red team.

The other four seconds passed and the team ran out the door. Scout was first naturally and he then proceeded out of the base, he passed the snipers overlook and onto the roof of the bridge, good thing to, an enemy sniper was only just coming out of the doorway to the other base's overlook and served a painful justice of a baseball bat whacking him right across the face and killing him from contact. But of course, a red soldier turned the corner and fired to rockets right at him, Scout being caught by surprise.

Scout blinked and re-opened his eyes to the spawn room of blu base,"AAH FUCK, GOD DAMMIT!PIECE OF SHIT!" Scout continued to cuss.

"What the bloody hell's got into you mate?" Sniper went up to scout, he had just re-spawned from going face to face with a demo-man, he gripped his hands on Scouts arms and shook him, trying to get some sense into him,

"Oh... Sorry, I've been a bit really fucking stressed lately, what with my mom 'going out' with that dick scumbag red spy," Scout shook clenched his fist and then punched one of the lockers.

"Oh, that..." Sniper rubbed the back of his neck, "yeah that sucks."

"I just wish I could escape from this place man, I'm sick of it, I'm sick of all the violence and crap man!" Scout was seeing rainbows, "I wanna settle down, start a baseball team with some kids from back in Boston, or something else man! I just need something different..." Scout had calmed down, and sat on the bench next to the locker,face in his hands.

"What kind of talk is that from the same tosser who couldn't wait to go out their and kick the shit out of some red wanka?"
Sniper sat next to Scout, hand on his shoulder, doing his best to keep the Scouts spirits high, It seemed the team was doing well considering no one had re-spawned except them, since the mission start.
"Now come on ya' looney, I'll cover you in and out of the red base and spy should be in there to lend you a hand to capture the Intel." Scout stood up, Picked up his scatter gun and walked to the overlook with sniper. "Maybe you're right, Snip's"

Scout stopped just at the door way to the overlook.
"Okay! Wait till I get into position, when I wave my hand you run for the other side!" Sniper Motioned a practice wave with his hand then slid on his left thigh to the cover of the overlook, after quickly setting up and taking a shot. He waved his hand to Scout and he ran out of the doorway fast as lightning, he Jumped to the roof of the bridge, ducking under the rocket of a headless soldier thanks to Sniper.

Scout slipped into the other base and cracked the skull of a red Pyro too slow to find out what was what before it was to late. Scout turned the corner into corridor leading to the intelligence and was greeted by a sentry, it fired a rocket and he jumped back around the corner, not a moment to soon. he leaned with his back against the wall. "Yo! Spy you here?" Scout blatantly just said, he didn't want to alert the reds that there was a spy nearby.

"Right behind you." Spy Growled, Scout jumped and turned to his colleague, Scout saw the grin on Spy's face that quickly faded into his normal serious business face.

"You got to stop doing that to me man!" Scout complained to Spy's Down right rude appearance.

"What are you whining about? I'm here am i not?" Spy continued to just stand there, flipping his balisong knife with his hand. "Anyway, What seems to be the problem?" Spy simply just asked.

"Gotta sentry right ahead." Spy pointed around the corner.

"And what do you suppose we do?" Spy flicked his cigarette away and received another one from his disguise kit.

"Well... Obviously, I create a distraction, and you go sap its wires dry!" Spy took a long puff on his cigarette and blew it into Scouts face, Making him cough.

"And what do we do about the engineer?" Spy said as he heard a wrench hitting some metal.

"we wait till he goes into his little hiding spot, when he's drawn out by your sapper, I'll take a few pot shots at him, when he turns around," scout made a twirling motion with his hand, "You stab him in the back!"
"Good plan!" Spy complimented his colleague, "I didn't know you had the ability to think!" quickly taking back the pride he had given. Scout just shook his head bewildered and sighed.

"You ready?"

"But of course!" Scout took out his can of bonk and drank it all up...

The plan went all as according and scout made off with the intelligence, as he passed outside again he was greeted by a Heavy, who was quickly dealt with by the Sniper. Scout continued to their own intelligence room and killed demo-man on the way through the corridors. He placed the intelligence onto the desk and the speakers once again boomed with: "Victory!"

Back in the barracks Scout was heading to his room, As he passed Soldiers room he was called in for a minute for a bit of conversation. Missiles, Rocket launchers, shotguns, Ammo and a shovel where scattered round the room.

"what 'cha need me for Soldier?" Scout questioned and sat on a box with his arms leaned on his legs.
"Sniper told me bout that talk you had wit' him" Scout cringed, even though he hadn't mentioned it, he thought that sniper would know not to tell anyone. "He says he's concerned about you, and the team." Scout looked to soldier with a confused look on his face. Soldier picked up on his expression and explained, "Look, Kid..." Soldier sighed and took another breath. "without you, our team would sort of, well... go to shit. Who else can rush up and cap that intel fast enough so he is barley scratched?" Scout sighed, stood up.

"You're right, look i know I haven't been trying my best, and that's because I lost my spark a while ago, I no longer have what used to make me enjoy beating the living hell out of some douche-bag. I lost it a while back and I was only staying here because I didn't want to leave all you guys hanging." Scout walked out of the door and went to his room. He got into bed, and forced shut his eyes till he was asleep. He has no idea where he was going to be when he woke up.

Chapter 1: That's not right?

Scout rolled over in what he thought was his bed when he was asleep, he was soon corrected when he falls and finds himself in a barn. He seemed to have been sleeping on a hay stack.
Scout stood up and rubbed his eyes, believing that his eyes where first just playing tricks on him. Surprising enough his eyes are indeed, not. now with a better view of his surroundings, he can finally shed some light on his situation.
He appeared to be in a barn and, stereotypically, it was red, and all the wooden supports were painted white. With nothing much to do in here, Scout headed out of the barn, on his journey however, gravity had other plans and he tripped over an empty bucket and falling to the floor, sending other buckets and farming appliances flying as he fell into them, making an awful amount of noise too.

"Crud!" the scout mumbled from the ground. He got back up and headed back towards the door, taking a more cautious approach this time.

As he opened the door he was greeted by nothing but blinding amounts of sunshine to his eyes, As he lifted his arm up to shield his eyes and adjust to the light, he was ambushed by an unknown attacker.

"Yeeeeeehaaaaaa!" Scout was jumped at from the side, the light still blinding so he had no time to react.
"I'll teach you to come into my barn ya thieving little varmint!" From what scout could gather he was being attacked by some crazy lady with a southern accent because she thought he was stealing from 'her' barn. However this woman wanted to rumble, and a rumble she was going to get.
He still couldn't see because something was smothering his face, Scout didn't like that at all, Scout lifted his arm from his side and cracked it straight into what he thought was the lady's jaw.

Scout got up dusted himself off, and turned to face his attacker, and said, "Who do you think y-" Scouts jaw hit the floor to what he saw. (3X rhyme combo! :3) What he expected wasn't even remotely close to the stranger before him.

"What? ain't used to figh-" The stranger stopped her sentence also, having a similar experience to what Scout was having.

Both stared at each other for a long time unable to say anything, until finally, Scout opened his mouth to speak and also lifted his hand into the air. "You..." He pointed at the stranger, "Are a horse?" Scout raised the pitch in his voice on horse to high a proportion.

"Pony," the 'Pony' replied "What and who in tarnation are you?" she raised her hoof and pointed it at Scout. "And what the hay are you doing on mah farm?" The pony questioned him.

"Look..." Scout put both arms to his side, "This is all a misunderstanding, I don't even know the answer to that question, I honestly have no idea how I got here!" Scout still unable to get over the fact he was talking to ho-pony, but not addressing the matter, she clearly wasn't familiar to anything close to a human.

"Oh I get it," The pony replied, "crazy stuff happens like that here all the time, she smiled at him and chuckled.

"Whats ya name pardner?" Scout was bewildered, one second he was brawling with this ho-pony and now she wants to be friends, if not, acquaintances? "Uh," Scout almost forgot his training."I'm Scout!" He stretched out his hand, "Nice to meet ya?" he said, still unsure.

"Scout?" the pony chuckled to herself "that's not a name, whats your real name?" the pony said, going of topic and not mentioning her own.

"I'm afraid that's classified, everyone else just calls me scout anyway, even my buddy Ellis sometimes." Scout informed her. "Besides, you haven't told me your name" Scout tried to get the conversation away from his name and onto hers.

"Oh... my apologies... Scout" She finally shook Scouts hand, he had forgot he was holding it out. "I'm Applejack! pleased to meet ya." The po-Applejack shook his hand and Scout said,

"Okay.. now who's got the weird name?" Scout chuckled to himself, laughing at the irony this pon-err-Applejack is now in.

"What? whats so funny?" Applejack questioned Scout, "Everyponies got a name like that here." Scout stopped laughing, she was clearly serious.

"Really? So what other names does everyone else have?" Scout asked applejack, now intrigued.

"Well there's Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, and Rarity." She wasn't lying, Something was telling Scout that this pony was telling the truth.

"Okay..." Scout sighed "So... Applejack, where the hell am I?" Scout asked Applejack.

"You're in Sweet Apple Acres, just outside of Ponyville Scout, One of Equestria's more common towns,unlike Canterlot and Manehatten." Applejack seemed to scoff at the names of these towns, as if she'd had bad experiences in such places.

"Don't you mean Manhattan?" Scout attempted to correct Applejack.

"Nope, Manehattan, Why would you think that?"
Scout just got the play on words like he was crushed by a rock and started laughing hysterically. "What in tarnations wrong with you?" she just looked at Scout as he lay on the floor clutching his gut and laughing loudly. "Manehattan! HA! Good one Applejack, HA! [Insert more laughter]" Applejack shook her head, "And? I don't get what all the laughter's about."
Scout calmed down and stood up, dusting himself off again, clearly these ponies weren't familiar with puns.

"Nothing... It doesn't matter, you won't get it and it'll spoil the joke if I try to explain it." Scout explained, Applejack just shook her head.

"So what's life like here Applejack?" Scout attempted to steer the topic away again.

"What do ya mean, Scout?" Applejack looked confused.

"You know, Jobs, economy, politics, stuff like that." Scout explained his question.

"Oh!" Applejack beamed, seemed like a topic she liked to talk about. "Well, we have jobs yes, such as farming, which is what I and my family do, Pinkie pie helps out with Mr and Mrs cake at the cake shop, twilight looks after the library, Rarity has her own boutique, and rainbow dash runs the weather-control team, there are other jobs too li-" Applejack was going to continue when she was suddenly interrupted by scout,

"Wait, back up there..." Scout thought for a second, "Weather-control team, whats that?" Scout was fairly interested in this, half of the matter being he had never heard of it before.
Applejack added, "Their a group of pegasi wh-" Scout interrupted applejack again, this time it annoyed her.

"Wait pegasi? so you mean there are ponies with wings too?"
Applejack continued, "Who control the weather, like when it rains, when its cloudy or foggy, and when the sky is clear as a whistle, and yes pegasi, As well as Unicorns too." Applejack finished, took a breath and continued, "If you want to know things, you have to stop interrupting me scout." Applejack smirked. Scout rubbed the back of his neck with his hand.

"Sooo, what about politics" scout asked.

"Oh? we just have a princess who rules over Equestria, makes all the big decisions and such, I don't know too much." Applejack informed Scout,

"A princess? isn't there like, a Queen or anything?" Scout was puzzled.

"Like ah said, I don't know much about politics. but if you wanna find out more I guess we could go see Twilight, why it's only just gone past twelve," Applejack glanced at the sky. "heck, I could introduce you to all mah friends!" Applejack turned in the direction of the road to what Scout assumed to be Ponyville in the distance. "What do ya' say Scout? you game?" Scout walked to the side of applejack,

"Sure, it's something to do right?" Scout grinned. Applejack grinned back, and they set off to Ponyville.
