Chapters Chapter 1: Teleported Into Equestria
"Are you almost done?" asked Roadhog, considerably irritated with Junkrat taking his sweet time with placing the explosives on the lab door.
"Hey, I need to make sure the bombs are good and snug. Don't want them to fly off the door at us." stated Junkrat as he fiddled with the last bomb. "Besides, I gotta make sure they are in perfect boom condition." Roadhog sighed in disbelief, due to the fact that he still couldn't understand what the deal was with Junkrat's obsession with explosions. "Okay, It's ready." stated Junkrat, hobbling over to Roadhog with a C4 detonator on his hand as he pushed Roadhog behind a large rock. "Fire in the hole!" screamed Junkrat as he clicked the button on the detonator. Soon after that, a loud kaboom was heard, as shrapnel from the heavily armored door flew out, accompanied by a ton of smoke. As the smoke cleared, all that remained of the door was a large hole. As they went inside, they drug Roadhog's ramshackle chopper in behind them. Inside was a large room with tools strewn about everywhere. In the near middle of the room was a large flat disc-shaped object, with a ramp attached to it. Junkrat and Roadhog pushed the chopper onto the pad. Near it was a tablet on a stand with the label: Super Teleporting Atomizer Relay Galactic And Temporal Electronic System. Junkrat looked at the destination selected, but couldn't make out what it said. Scratching his chin, Junkrat reached his hand toward the On switch.
"Don't do it, Junkrat. You don't know what that does or how to work it." warned Roadhog while he was repairing his chopper.
"Well, let's find out then, shall we?" replied Junkrat as he flipped the switch and ran back over.
Soon, a robotic voice came on over the intercom. "Activating teleportation pad. Objects total weight: 1610 lbs. Power level: 100%. Commencing space-time warp now." Soon, the giant ring behind them became energized as a portal began to form in it. As the Australian twosome turned around, the portal sucked them in, with the chopper close behind. After they went through, the portal closed behind them.
The sky was clear in Equestria. Celestia's sun shone bright over the colorful landscape. It was a perfect day for a picnic, and Twilight Sparkle had capitalized on these conditions by inviting her friends to a picnic at a spot near the edge of Everfree forest. When everyone had gotten to the picnic spot, everyone started to make small talk about what was on their minds when Pinkie's tail started to shake. Seeing this, everyone looked towards the sky to see a large blue ball of energy plummeting it's way towards Everfree. Curiosity got the better of them as they went toward where the object crash landed.
Meanwhile,inside Everfree forest, sat Junkrat, Roadhog, and their chopper, the both of them looking at their surroundings. They then looked at each other... before they started arguing. "I told you that you shouldn't touch that." yelled Roadhog obviously angry at Junkrat. "That device could've killed us both, or turned on the defense system, or worse! What the hell were you thinking?!"
"Ahh, but it didn't happen. Still though, is it just me, or does this place look like a girls cartoon?" stated Junkrat.
"I can't believe I'm agreeing with you on this, but yeah, it does." replied Roadhog
As the two looked around, they heard someone talking nearby. "I'm telling you Pinkie, there is no way that it's aliens." Shouted a voice, sounding a tad bit irritated with this, "Pinkie" character.
"Oh come on Twilight, you don't know that it isn't. For all we know, it could be a meteor." stated a tomboyish sounding voice.
"I just hope no animals were hurt." whispered a shy person.
"We must be getting close, cause ah can see some of the aftermath." commented a southern voice.
"Hey Roadhog... wanna greet our visitors?" asked Junkrat, with a grin on his face.
"Sure, I don't see why not." Roadhog as he pulled out his hook and Scrapmetal shotgun.
Upon seeing this, Junkrat quickly put his hands on Roadhog's gun. "No, I don't mean kill them. I mean we spook em a bit, then introduce ourselves." stated Junkrat. To which, Roadhog nodded, as they went toward the chopper...and gunned the engine.
"Uhh... does anypony hear that noise?" asked Applejack. To that comment, everypony's ears perked up. Soon they heard what Applejack was talking about. At first, everyone thought it was a dragon of some sort, but their suspicions were soon disproved as a metal machine with two creatures riding on it charged out from the clearing toward them, jumping over them, barely missing the groups heads by a inch. The mysterious machine landed 5 feet behind the group. One the the machine operators pulled out a weird mechanism, and aimed it at them before firing it straight up in the air. A round object shot out of it, went up 6 feet up in the air before it exploded with a loud boom. Soon after that, the other creature turned something on the machine, and it turned off. Then the two mysterious creatures got off the machine, and walked toward the group of terrified ponies.
"How's it hangin', loves?" asked the shorter creature, acting as though nothing had just happened.
"Uhh..." was all that the Mane Six could muster out of their muzzles.
"Junkrat, you knew this was would be a bad idea, why did suggest we do this? These girls are probably terrified of us." yelled the larger, fat creature at "Junkrat" before moving over toward the cowering group of ponies.
"Don't do it Roadhog. You don't know if they're dangerous." stated Junkrat, which warranted "Roadhog" to turn toward Junkrat and remove his mask to give him a dirty look before putting it back on to look at the ponies.
He kneeled toward them and looked them over before speaking to them. "I believe we maybe have gotten off on the wrong foot." stated Roadhog, before hearing Junkrat mutter under his breath: "Or in your case, hoof.", looking at Junkrat, before turning back to the group of ponies. " Allow me to introduce ourselves. I am Roadhog, and my "friend", over there is Junkrat." stated Roadhog, making air quotations with his hands, before pointing a finger toward them. " Who are you?" he asked.
Looking on in fear, before swallowing it, Twilight stepped forward towards Roadhog. "Uhm... hi there...Roadhog...I'm Twilight Sparkle. And these are my friends Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity." replied Twilight Sparkle.

In case anyone who reads this is curious, my reasoning for choosing Junkrat and Roadhog was due to that they are both my most played characters in Overwatch, also because they seem like the kind of guys that would be in this kind of situation. Afterall, characters with a bad background can create some good character development.
Ch 2. Lost In Everfree Still
Soon after the introduction between the Mane Six, Junkrat and Roadhog were asked by them to join them on their picnic. Junkrat looked at Roadhog before the two huddled together to discuss it. "Why do you think they are being so accepting of us, Roadhog?" asked Junkrat, acting a bit skeptical. Roadhog just grunted in response. "It's not that I mind them doing it, it's just I'm not used to it." replied Junkrat. Roadhog moaned a little before nodding his head. Junkrat knew what this meant, and turned around toward the group of ponies. "My friend and I here have decided to join you in your little picnic." replied Junkrat, which in turn resulted in the Mane Six to get a bit giddy.
"Follow us, you two. We know the way out of here." stated Twilight. Soon after that Junkrat and Roadhog nodded, before Roadhog pulled out his Chain Hook, and flung it at his ramshackle chopper, snagging the hook on the sidecar connecter. After checking to make sure that the hook was snug, he turned and gave the group a thumbs up. "Alright, let's go girls." stated Twilight, and the Mane six began moving, with Junkrat and Roadhog following along.
After a while of walking, the Mane Six began to realise how lost they had become. "Uh sugarcube...I think we're lost." stated Applejack, after they had passed the same boulder twice now. Junkrat felt someone touch his shoulder, when he turned around to see who it was, he was met with a pair of teal eyes. He looked down to see Fluttershy looking nervously at him. He looked at her in curiosity. She whispered something to him which he didn't understand, so he kneeled down to her level so he could hear her.
"Umm...Mister Junkrat...if it isn't too much trouble...could you please help us get out of here...please?" whispered Fluttershy. Junkrat looked around him before setting eyes on the boulder. A wicked grin began to appear on his face as he hobbled over to the rather large rock, and began to climb it. when he reached the flat top of it, he placed a Concussion Mine on top of it's smooth surface. This managed to get the attention of the Mane Six, more specifically, Rainbow Dash. She flew over to him in a state of curiosity and anger.
"Hey, what do you think you're doing? We're trying to find a way out of this forest, and all you're doing is playing King of the Mountain! Why don't you help us out?!" yelled Rainbow Dash, as Junkrat looked at her... and began laughing. "WHAT'S SO FUNNY?!" screamed Rainbow Dash, very agitated at Junkrat's reaction.
"The fact that you think I'm not helping." replied Junkrat as he pulled out a detonator. "You may wanna back up a bit, sheila. It's gonna get a bit loud." stated Junkrat as he walked back onto the Concussion Mine...and clicked the trigger. A loud kaboom was heard as the explosion propelled Junkrat into the sky. Seeing this, Rainbow Dash chased after him.
Soon, Junkrat was relatively 500 feet in the air. After he had reached his target, he began to look around for the shortest way out possible from above. After looking around for a bit, he managed to find a way out. As he started to come down, he noticed a rainbow-colored blur heading straight towards him. After noticing said blur, he put his two of his fingers to his mouth and whistled. Down on the ground, Roadhog heard the distinct noise, and quickly grabbed his Chain Hook and flung it towards Junkrat, hooking him by his waist, and dragged him down extremely fast, with Rainbow Dash barely missing him. As soon as Junkrat touched the ground, he was thrown against a tree by an infuriated Rainbow Dash. But before she could lay a hoof on him, Roadhog grabbed her by the scruff of her neck. She looked at him, mad as a hornet. Roadhog grunted at her, before speaking in a gruff voice. "What...is your...problem?" he moaned. Rainbow Dash struggled to get free of his hands iron grip. "You...need to...take a...breather." uttered Roadhog, as he pulled out a small gas canister of Hogdrogen from his belt. "This...helps me...calm...down...It...should...help...you...too." groaned Roadhog as he began to move the gas canister toward her mouth.
"Don't do it Roadhog." stated Junkrat, still leaning against the tree where Rainbow Dash had slammed him into, looking rather hurt from the impact. Roadhog looked at Junkrat before looking at Rainbow Dash, then looking at the Mane six, who looked afraid of him. Roadhog sighed dejectedly, before letting go of Rainbow Dash. This prompted Rainbow Dash to race over to her friends. Junkrat slowly got up from against the tree Rainbow Dash had forced him against. Looking at the Mane Six, he began to point behind them. "The fastest way out of this forest is to go that way." he stated before trying to move, only to fall down, clutching his ribcage.
Ch 3. Scuffle Against Lupine Timber
As soon as Junkrat fell over, Twilight rushed over towards him, with look of worry plastered on her face. As she rushed over toward him, Roadhog pulled out a med-kit from his back pocket handing it to her. "You may...want...to use...this." Roadhog moaned. Twilight looked at Roadhog before grabbing the med-kit with her magic, and tried to administer to serum inside it... but couldn't figure out how to open the package. This prompted Roadhog to show her how to, which involved using his fingers to pry open the safety latches on the side of the kit. After opening it for her, Roadhog pulled out syringe with a strange blue liquid inside it. Handing it to her, Roadhog nodded, touching his shoulder, before backing off. Twilight, with a syringe wrapped in a field of her magic, inserted the needle into Junkrat's shoulder and injected the contents of the syringe into him. After a few minutes, the serum seemed to work it's magic, as Junkrat began to come to from his state of rest, no longer clutching his ribs.
"Whew-Whee. I tell ya, Roadhog, I can take a licking, and keep on ticking." he stated as he got up and stretched, as if nothing had happened to him. "Anyway, going straight that way is the best way out of here." Junkrat commented, as he started walking toward the way he pointed before passing out. Soon the group had restarted their trek through Everfree.
As they were walking, Twilight's curiosity got the better of her, as she tapped Junkrat's shoulder. Junkrat looked at her quizzically, before she asked him a question. "What did that serum even do anyway?" she questioned. Junkrat merely thought about it for a few moments before he decided to answer her...by using his steel trap hand puppet: Claptrap.
"Oy, Claptrap! This little mare here want's to know what the serum inside of a health kit does." stated Junkrat. As if on cue, Junkrat pulled out a Steel Trap from somewhere in his back pocket.
"Yeah, I'd like to know too, boss!" replied the steel trap, sounding like Junkrat with a high-pitched voice. "Can you explain how it works to us, boss?" it asked.
"Well, I guess I could tell you two how it works." replied Junkrat, scratching his chin. "I don't see the problem in telling you...Okay. I tell the both of ya." stated Junkrat as he began to explain how the Med kit serum worked. "You see love, that serum has a type of chemical that heals cells at a cellular level. It's rather hard explain beyond that." stated Junkrat, as he put Claptrap back into his back pocket. As he did, the two of them hear a loud feminine scream.
"That sounds like Rarity!" stated Twilight as the two of them rushed to where the noise originated from. When the two of them got to where the others were, they saw that they were surrounded by a huge pack of timberwolves. Roadhog was standing between the other Mane Six and the pack of bloodthirsty creatures. They were growling at Roadhog for getting between them and their meal. The ligneous lupines snarled as they got into a pouncing position.
Roadhog merely chuckled, before pulling out his Scrapmetal shotgun. "COME ON!! BRING IT ON YOU MAPLE-MIDGETS!" he bellowed at the splinter-coated scavengers. To this comment, one of them lunged at Roadhog...only to have it's head blown off by his gun, it's lifeless head laying on the ground, face full of scrap metal. This prompted two others to try pouncing at once...only to get blown into splinters by a grenade from Junkrat's grenade launcher.
"Hey, I ain't letting you have all the fun, Roadhog." stated Junkrat, having a huge, crazy grin plastered on his face as he cocked his launcher, as he threw a Concussion Mine at a few of the timberwolves, clicking the trigger as it landed in between then, causing them to be blown apart, with wood chips and twigs scattered everywhere. Soon Roadhog pulled out a large funnel filled with scrap metal, and plugged it into the top of his shotgun, and then plugged a crank into the side, then started to turn it very fast, causing the gun to spew out scrap metal at a rather fast rate, shredding and puncturing a ton of timberwolves. Soon after that, Junkrat pulled the Rip-Tire off his back, slamming it onto the ground. He then grabbed the ripcord on the side of the tire. "Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines." he yelled before pulling the cord as hard as he could, causing the motor inside the tire to sputter before revving up and rushing forward into the the thick of the timberwolves before exploding, turning most of them into splinters and ash. The few remaining timberwolves seemed to realize that it was pointless to keep fighting the group, an retreated with their tree branch tails between their legs. Seeing this caused Junkrat to chuckle. "Sayonara you wooden wimps!" he yelled at the retreating timberwolves. Looking back at the awestruck group of ponies, the two of them rubbed the back of their necks before going to see if the Mane Six were okay. The Mane were shocked to see had happened before their very eyes, but before they could say anything, Junkrat came up to them. "Look, I know you probably want to ask the two of us something, but can it wait until we reach your picnic spot? After all, there is a clearing just up ahead." asked Junkrat, to which the Mane Six just nodded as they continued their trek.
Soon they approached the clearing, meeting the bright light of the sun. The group saw a large picnic blanket 50 feet ahead of them, resting near an oak tree. There was a medium sized picnic basket laying on the blanket. Upon seeing this the Mane six rushed over to it, with Junkrat and Roadhog following behind. As soon as the Mane Six sat down, the questions started to rise. "WHAT WAS THAT BACK THERE?!" asked Rarity, semi-mortified,"Can you teach me to do that?" gushed Rainbow Dash, "Can you tell me how you did that?" questioned Twilight. Soon the girls were asking up a storm. "Stop!" screamed Applejack,a little red in the face. Everyone soon looked at her, before she started talking again. "While everyone here may want to know something that relates to what we just saw these two strangers do, I wanna know where it began." stated Applejack as she looked at Junkrat and Roadhog. With everypony's eyes on the two, Junkrat sighed.
"Alright, here's the truth." stated Junkrat. "It all began..."
Author's Note
Chapter 3! Whew! Thank you guys for the support. I really appreciate it.
So....Yeah...mistakes were made here. Still, the Steel Trap joke was kinda improvised. Plus I got the idea for the serum from a technology documentary where scientists make a cancer fighting vaccine that works similarly to a bee stinger's venom. Yes, that exists, but I can't remember the the name of said documentary.

Ch. 4 Backstory of Two Crazy Hooligans...Every Detail
Australian Outback: 2081. POV: Jamison "Junkrat" Fawkes, One year prior to Junker's Paradise
It was a beautiful day in the Outback. Sun shone bright, not a cloud in the sky. I was the leader of the homeowner's association at the time, happily married with a kid on the way. I had went out to get the mail from the mailbox, saying hi to Mako Rutledge, our relatively new neighbor, as I usually did. But today was different. As I did, a black Chevrolet Suburban hover car stopped in front of me. The occupant got out the vehicle, and I realized who it was. It was David Candwerm , the neighborhood's political news reporter, and he stopped in front of me, uttering these words: "Homeowners Meeting, now."
I had soon gathered everyone in the neighborhood, and held the resulting meeting in the garage of my home, with a plethora of folding chairs set out, with everyone there in them, staring at me. Then I delivered the news to the neighbors. "Okay, as I'm sure you already know, The Omnic Crisis has just ended, but the reason I bring this up is because I have just recently learned from David that the Government has decided to kick us out of our homes and give them to the Omnic's as a sort of peace offering." I said, as I paused for dramatic effect before to continuing on. "Let me repeat that. The Government has decided that in order to avoid pissing off the Omnic's any further, they will kick us out of our homes that we payed for and LIVE in, and turn right back around give them to the Omnic's, free of charge while we get thrown to the streets." I reiterated as everyone began to murmur and chatter among themselves about the issue. Seeing this, I continued. "Now, I know this is a big concern for most of you. It is for me too, but let me just say upfront, that I will not stand for this fucking bullshit. I've got a kid on the on the way, and I don't plan on raising him or her on the streets. I will not stand for this injustice, and I sure as hell won't allow them to get what they want without a fight." I stated in a bold and boisterous voice. Everyone in the garage had agreed with me on that, and soon after, we had begun sabotaging anything that had to do with the Omnics, ranging from resource transportations to destroying their building sites. By two weeks time, our efforts reached their peak as me and small group broke into the Omnium core and sabotaged it, causing it to explode and irradiate the landscape. With the loud boom, our objective had been complete, but it didn't come without sacrifice. Not only did that explosion change everyone's life, but it changed mine for the worse. My pregnant wife died from the explosion as it went off. Torn apart by my loss, I turned to explosives as a way to forget my grief and pain, a little bit more of my former self being forgotten with each tick, tick, boom. What remained of my neighborhood was a ragtag group of misfits called "Junkers", scavenging the remains of the Omnium core for anything useful. One fateful day, I was digging through the wreckage, when I stumbled upon a brown briefcase containing an Omnic blackbox memory core. I plugged it into an Omnic data decryption device, and I was astonished with what I saw. Looking at it, I realized that I held the secret of the Omnic's. I knew that others would kill me if they found out, so I went to look for someone who would protect me as a bodyguard. I soon found Mako Rutledge and told him of my predicament.
After listening to me, he looked at me. "What's in it for me?" he asked.
"75% of the profits" he replied
"50%, take it or leave it" I retaliated.
"Deal." he replied, easily convinced, and soon we had begun our little trek around the globe.
For a few weeks, everything was going fine, until we went to a local bank to withdraw some money. We had went in, waited in line for what seemed like an eternity, and when it was finally our turn, the guy looked straight at the two of us and shook his head, scowling. "Oh no, get out of here, Adam and Steve. We don't allow your kind here." he said to the two of us.
"You heard me, fruity. We don't allow your kind in here." he said in an extremely hateful tone.
"Look pal, all we want to do is withdraw our money. That's all we came here to do." I replied, trying to keep calm and defuse the argument.
"I don't give a fuck what you came here to do, I'm not listening to queer's like you or Fatty McGee over there. So get the fuck out" he replied, to which Mako pushed me out of the way to get in the man's face.
"Say gay again! Say gay again! I dare you. I double dare you, motherfucker. Say gay one more goddamn time." Mako barked through his makeshift gas mask.
Of course, the guy had to push his luck, which resulted in him getting a black eye, amongst other things, and us running away with Mako carrying a few cash bags in his arms. Soon after that incident, things had blown out of proportion to the point where we were considered a global threat. Soon we realised that if was how the world would perceive us, then we wouldn't disappoint, and decided to keep up the charade. We scavenged a nearby junk yard, and adorned ourselves in scrap metal and car parts, ready for our big audition.
"...And that's pretty much the major recollection of what happened to us up until we met you." followed up Junkrat as he finished his story.
Twilight and her frtiends looked at both Junkrat and Roadhog, unsure of what to do or say in this situation. They gathered close together and discussed what they should do.
Author's Note
After a lot time of being in production, road blocks and all, the second to last chapter. Thank you everyone for your support. I apologize for the delays, but life had to throw me couple of curveballs. I don't mean to offend anyone by this, but I've had friends who were treated like shit for being gay, and it somehow gave me some motivation, for some reason. Seriously though, words can't even begin to describe how much all of you guys care. So what better a way to show you my gratitude than to allow you guys to decide how this story shall end. Thank you.
Ps. Yes, I intentionally made a few Pulp Fiction references. Here is a link to what the Omnic secret is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E--xFjR1dM
