In the beautiful land of Equestria, ruled by the feuding sisters Celestia and Luna, two teams of mercenary clones are put to the test as they fight over the land for their respective princess...

Oh, and we cannot forget the hats. Lots of hats are involved.

I like it feels like this will be a very fun series. I will gladly watch. Also I couldn't help but read everything in your wonderful voice. I look forward to your next chapter, see you in brighter days.

"TF2 is what we do when we're not at the Gala! At the Gala!" :derpytongue2:

Oh boy, can't wait to see next chapter. :rainbowwild: Queen Fausticorn is hilarious. XD

I think you need to slip a 'Random' tag in there :pinkiecrazy:

Nine, you say? Well it feels like the Mane Six cover the first part, but I'm curious as to who the other three ponies will be... Would Luna and Celestia allow themselves to be cloned for a game? I imagine Big Macintosh has to be one of the extras, like the Heavy Weapons character. Perhaps Zecora as another if the Princesses won't agree to playing no matter how indirectly. I can certainly see the "Great and Powerful" Trixie as one. The CMC are clearly too young.
Or is the picture accurate?
But how is this a Crossover?

4399754 Well you are right about Grey Mann being Chrysalis. :rainbowlaugh:

Yeah, I most certainly do enjoy it. I'll be waiting for the next chapter. :ajsmug:

Why do I have a feeling Discord and Faust set this up?

Hello Ink Rose! Remembrah MEECH?!

Funny, I've seen three of these crossovers so far, and the Mane 6 are always in the same roles every time. The Soldier and the Demoman are different each time, but Big Mac is always the Heavy and the Mane 6 always have the roles they have here.

Also, this is the second one where Discord is the Administrator. (He was the Demoman in the third one.)

I've never played Team Fortress. Are the characters really such a close one-for-one mapping to the Mane 6 that independent authors will always put them in the same roles because of the obviousness?

I'm going to do a review of this (well more of a rant because i see some wrong things in this fanfic even if its new)

Personally I think giving each class its unique accent would be funny but whatever floats your boat.

so far so good, i cant wait for the next chapter!

Looks good so far. Keep it up!

Uh oh... I think my fanboy meter is off the charts

I give this a ten out of ten because TF2 FTW

"Shut up!" Fausticorn screamed at her child. "Let me finish my dramatic dying speech you welp! It's because of you two I got these accursed illnesses anyway!"
"Pfft, you were the one who spent a whole day bartering with lepers," Celestia scoffed. "Your fault."

You have a twisted sense of humor, Ink Rose.

"I decided to write the will on my skin, since we all know that anything written on Alicorn skin is legally approved. So when I die, you can shave off my fur and reveal the will underneath. Got it?" Faust explained.
The two sisters immediately fetched fur shavers and razed half of the Queen's white coat off as she screamed in horror.
"I said AFTER I was dead! After!" she screeched.

Second verse same as the first.

Faust gave a devilish smile. "That's right, my children. I have split Equestria in two. Half to Celestia, and half to Luna."

Guess you could call that a :coolphoto: A Faustian bargain. Dang it, it doesn't work.

The Queen just laughed. "HA! I knew you would. Now because I despise you both, I have ensured that you will both be fighting over Equestria for all of eternity. Anyway, I better get to dying. I've got a date with Tirek at 5 and I don't want to be late. I hope you girls have miserable lives."

You are disturbing, Miss Rose

After hours of pointless and vicious bickering, as well as eating freshly baked cookies, a flash of light blinded the sisters temporarily. When they could see again, they were astounded to see a patchwork creature in front of them, his crazed smile like that of a hungry lion... or a politician.

However that is funny.

"Hello, girls. Missed me?" said Discord.

DISSY!

Discord flicked his snake-like tail, an even larger and more sinister grin spreading like refined jam across his ugly mug. "I was hoping you would say that."

Oh dear.

"What if I hired you both, say, nine mercenaries each. Then they would fight over bits of the land for you. Whoever wins the most land gets to rule Equestria. In a sense, this will be a wonderful game of offense and defense, one which I shall moderate," Discord explained.

So Discord is the Administrator, and will most likely play both sides like fiddles. Not surprised.

"Tut, tut. No need to worry. I will clone them. Simple dark magic spell. The clones will be trained to kill, and yet still retain the girl’s basic personalities and most of their memories." said Discord.

Dark magic? I'd worry, but this is Discord, I doubt it'll phase him much.

By this time Discord's smile had grown as large as that of an absurdly rich dragon.
"Let the games begin."

*terrified whimper*

Probably because this is exactly the kind of thing Discord would do.

"Calm down, 'Princess', I haven't gotten to your horn yet. I save magical appendages for last, since they are the most difficult to recreate."

Makes sense.

“Ha! You haven’t been brought here, my dear Twilight. I’ve simply created you right at this moment! You’re a clone of the original Twilight, designed for service to Princess Celestia in her “glorious” campaign to take Equestria for herself. Does that not make sense?” Discord covered his mouth with a paw, and tried to cover up his fit of giggles.

Discord, you're going to break her.

“Y-you’re lying!” Twilight said. Her brows knit together as she pulled her hat’s sides low. “No... no, you’re joking! I’m not a clone! I remember everything that’s ever happened to me! I’m the real Twilight!”

Cloning Blues.

The tiny purple dragon wore a purple vest and small horn-rimmed glasses. He carried a notepad in one hand and a pencil in the other. He met Twilight’s gaze in a confused manner.
“Oh. Good morning, RED Sniper. It is nice to see you are up and living,” said Spike in a formal tone. “I’m afraid I don’t know who this “Spike” is. My name is Paul.”

So that's who he is.

“Perfect. Thank you, Paul,” Discord said. He reached into a pocket of the purple jacket Twilight just noticed he was wearing. He pulled out a huge watch and glanced at it. “And it seems it is also time for the RED team’s members to have a little meet and greet, now that they are all fully formed. Perfect timing!” He swept his arms around the room in a dramatic gesture. “Well, my little clone-ies, I must be off! I will see you all again in about an hour. Have fun in my absence!” And just like that, Discord was gone, leaving a puff of smoke behind.

Doesn't he usually vanish in a flash of light?

There, behind the desk, was Pinkie. But it certainly wasn’t the Pinkie Twilight knew. Strapped to her face was a terrifying mask, beneath which were peaking out gruesome burn scars. Her hair was flat and dull-looking, and she wore a red flame-retardant body suit, along with black gloves and boots. In her hooves she had a match, which she was frantically rubbing against the desk.

Pinkamena is the Pyro. You've created a monster.

“Paul” sighed. “Believe me, you all ARE clones, including me. You were all created by Discord to be copies of the ponies you were based off of. However, there have been some significant changes... as well as flaws in the magical cloning system. You all are designed to be ruthless fighting machines, after all, so some memories have been altered, as well as parts of your personality constructs and abilities. Pinkie Pie, for example, is built to be this team’s Pyro. She was given a special affinity for fire as well as a hallucinogenic personality. Though I have to say the schizophrenia was not the most necessary choice... Discord wanted to have a bit of fun... so some changes are as a result of him wanting to make things a bit more chaotic.

His idea of fun reminds me more of Return of Harmony Discord than Keep Calm and Flutter On and afterwards Discord.

“Oh. Discord did not like the personality that the original Angel has. Thus, he changed it to the personality of a dove,” Paul said.

Oh. Dark.

“Derpy Hooves is the team Demolitions Mare. She will handle bombs and explosions.”
“Yay!” Derpy said, clapping her hooves together.

Good God.

“Excellent. Then it’s time to start training!” Discord said with the grin of a lion.

Seriously, do you realize how creepy this is?

(I wonder if Josh is aware of this?)

4401011 I completely agree. Perhaps they did, but then Why would Fausticorn want Equestria destroyed? Eh. I guess we'll never know. Or WILL WE MISS INKROSE!!! :duck:
