Prologue: A New Universe

Just another typical battle day at Dustbowl. The BLU Team had alterady taken the main regions of Dustbowl, so the RED Team had to defend the entrance of the RED Base, or else the BLU Team would take over Dustbowl. RED was not ready for the battle lately, therefore, BLU took the head-start, and captured Granary, 2Fort, Hydro and Gravel Pit. Only Well and Dustbowl were at RED's domain right now.

Engineer parked his car at the parking lot on the entrance to the RED base. He and Pyro left the car. "Just another typical battle day, don't worry, everything will go fine.", Engineer mumbled to himself. However, the Administrator's voice on the speakers said otherwise. "Attention, you lazy, fat brainless idiots! We need to defend this Rocket containing one of the Explosives we need to send to the BLU Team! If they take it, they might use it against us on Well! So, get your lazy asses up and DEFEND!!", said the Administrator on her usual angry and demanding voice. The Engineer sighed.

"C'mon, Pyro. We got work to do.", he said. He went towards the Control Point number 1 on Dustbowl Stage 2, while the Pyro followed him.

The war was not going well for the RED Team. The BLU Heavy managed to outdamage the RED Heavy wielding the Brass Beast, the BLU Scout managed to kill most of the RED Team members because the RED Medic was pocketing the RED Heavy, and other stuff. In short, RED was having no team co-operating at all. It was like everyone on RED had in mind 'Everyone on your own, teamwork and friendship is for losers'. The Engineer gasped when he saw the RED members being terminated by the BLU members. Thankfully, the Respawn System was working, but unfortunaly, it seemed that BLU's respawn was much faster than RED's.

"Alright, let's get work done.", Engineer said.

He went inside the building that had the Control Point, then placed his Sentry Gun on a hidden spot. It managed to kill a BLU Scout that came to the Control Point to attempt to capture it.

"Job well done!", he cheered.

Although, he knew that it wasn't done yet. He knew that the BLU Soldier, BLU Heavy and BLU Pyro could rush in to close quarters and terminate the Sentry. He needed to upgrade it. He looked around, and found a Medium-sized ammo box lying next to a Large first-aid kit. He grabbed the box, and used the ammo for Metal.

Meanwhile, the RED Pyro was looking around his non-cooperating teammates to check if any of them were Spies. None of them acted differently. Suddently, a burning RED Sniper came out from the battelfield.

"Medic! Medic! Medic!", yelled the Sniper. Medic didn't twitched. The Pyro decided to help him. He airblasted the Sniper, and his RED 'teammates' gave the Pyro an awkward look.

"Thanks, Pyro.", Sniper said before he went behind a house, with the RED team members still looking awkardly at the Pyro. Pyro mumbled something that appeared to be a 'What?'. Suddently, the Sniper screamed, and someone appeared to collapse in the floor. The RED members didn't cared and proceeded to keep fighting. Pyro was the only one that cared. The Sniper emerged from the house. The RED members didn't cared, Pyro was looking at Sniper consistently, like there was something wrong. The Sniper seemed to make his distance from the Pyro. He then made his way into the Control Point office. Pyro decided to slowly follow him.

"Whoowe! Makin' bacon!", said the Engineer as his newly-made Level 3 Sentry Gun reached 26 kills. The Engineer then grabbed a toolbox, then placed it on the floor, which started building a Dispenser.

"Dispenser goin' up!", said Engineer, as he started whacking his Dispenser with the wrench, making it build faster. Eventually, it was fully set up. However, he heard someone step on a creaking wooden plank. Engineer quickly turned around, and found nothing. He turned around, and found his Dispenser sapped.

"Spah sappin' mah Dispenser!", said the Engineer as he rushed to his dispenser to knock the sapper off.

"Phew.", said the Engineer. Then, he heard the sound of the sapper again. He turned around, and said "Spah sappin' mah Sentry!". He smacked the Sentry with the wrench.

"Job well done!", he said. Suddently, his Dispenser was sapped again. He smacked his wrench against his Dispenser yet again, and then the Sentry was sapped again. However, before the Engineer could take the Sapper off, he heard a very familiar laugh comming from behind.

"Spy.", said the Engineer in an angry tone. He turned around, and found the BLU Spy carrying a backpack full of Sappers.

"What's the matter? Did I throw a wrench on your plans?", said the enemy Spy. The Engineer showed a very angry face, until he heard another familiar voice.

"Nho.", the voice said. Suddently, the Spy collapsed on the floor with a single slight scream. Behind him was the RED Pyro holding the Back Scratcher.

"Phew. Thanks, Pyro.", said the Engineer with a sound of relief, as he went to his almost-destroyed Sentry Gun to remove the Sapper. The Pyro didn't answered. He just withdrawed his Back Scratcher, then pulled his Flame Thrower. He stood there with his flamer for five seconds, until he yelled "SPFHAH!", turned around, and fired his flamer. A burning sillhouete appeared, that made a blue glow which started to take form of the BLU Spy.

"Oh, merde, you shortened out my Ringer!", said Spy as he saw his Dead Ringer melting.

The Engineer heard his Sentry Gun target something behind him. He quickly stepped out of the way, and found out the burning enemy Spy. The Sentry then did short work of the Spy, who was now lying dead on the floor as gibs.

"Thanks, Pyro.", Engineer said. This time, the Pyro answered with a nod. However, the two noticed a carpet of BLU stickybombs lying around the Sentry. Unfortunaly, before one of the two could react, the carpet exploded, killing the Sentry Gun, and knocking out cold the Pyro and the Engineer. A BLU Demoman arrived. He laughed, then said "Ka-BOOM!" before proceeded to cap the point.

Some time later....

Pyro and Engineer woke up a few minutes later. Engineer looked at the Control Point.

"Darn. BLU capped the point.", he said. He went downstairs, and found a strange teleporter.

"What the.....", he said. It appeared that this teleporter didn't belonged to neither RED nor BLU, and it looked nothing like the RED and BLU Engineers' teleporters. Before he could examine it, the Pyro entered it.

"Gho gho gho!", Pyro said. The Engineer's adventurer-side made him agree with the Pyro. The two entered the teleporter.

Elsewhere....

"It's amazing!", Rarity said.

"No, it's better! A LOT better than amazing!", Twilight answered.

Ponyville was celebrating the discover of a new ore, crystalitties. It was just like diamonds, except they were a lot stronger and shined a lot more, along with a blue hue.

"I don' think crystalitties will superate uranium, though.", said Applejack.

"Why? These shiny ores are MUCH more beautiful than those rocks covered in yellow dust!", proclaimed Rarity.

"Actually, I think Applejack's right.", said Rainbow Dash. "Remember the diamonds? They were four times more beautiful than uranium, yet they still didn't superated the latter on units sold.", continued her.

The 'Mane 5' kept discussing, while Pinkie Pie didn't even cared about the crystalitties. All she cared was that it was a good party. She and Derpy Hooves even made her own stand selling cupcakes and muffins.

It wasn't just the Mane 6 that went to the party. Many other ponies, such as Zecora, Cheerilee, Hoity Toity, Photo Finish, Sapphire Shores, Spitfire, Soarin, Lyra, Bon-Bon, DJ P0N-3 and Caramel came, just to name a few. Almost every Pony from Ponyville went to the party. One of the few ponies who wen't to the party was Trixie, for obvious reasons.

Many Ponies like crystallities, mainly shopkeepers, others just don't care, and a few others don't like it, thinking it is a rip-off from diamonds. Some believe crystallities will be the new decoration, others think it will be the new economy, others think it will just fall into oblivion and be forgotten, just like coal, iron, copper, and all those other stuff.

The richer ponies started dreaming of them swimming in a pool of crystallities. The average ponies just thought of using crystallities as decoration for some holidays like christmas, and all those stuff. The poorer ponies couldn't take a look at crystallities, as every other pony was on the way.

Everything was going fine, until a bright flash of light appeared during the party. Everypony looked at the flash, that grew greater and greater, until a poof of smoke popped up around. A bipedal creature wearing a Hard Hat came out.

"Hey, Pyro, this teleporter actually works!", exclaimed the Humanoid creature as he stepped out.

"Huddah Huh!", a voice came out after the creature said. As soon as he left the cloud smoke, he spoke something.

"...What the blazes?", the Engineer exclaimed.

All the Ponies fled upon seeing the two bipedal, strange-looking creatures arrive.

"Ooh, the festival is RUINED!", yelled Rarity as she, Twilight and Fluttershy went to hide behind a bush.

Only Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash stood where they were. Pinkie because she wanted to see those new creatures. Rainbow because she didn't wanted to look like a coward, but she still kept her distance in the air. Pinkie then started to approach the Pyro.

"Pinkie, no!", Rainbow said with a worried expression.

The Pyro looked at the pink horse that was approaching. Suddently, before anything could be thought, Pinkie said four words:

"Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie!", Pinkie said, while extending her hoof for a hoofshake. The Pyro found out that the Pink and Blue horses can talk, and that probably most of the horses there also can. He then looked at her hoof. Pyro remembered the Engineer doing something similar, where he slapped Engy's hand. He then decided to do the same. He cracked his fingers, then slapped her hoof. The two started to bounce up and down while clapping their hands/hoofs. Rainbow Dash and the Engineer looked awkwardly at Pyro and Pinkie. Suddently, the rest ot the ponies started to reach out of their hiding spot, as they found out that the new creatures were harmless. Or were they?
