AN: I own nothing, otherwise this would be cannon (obviously...)

Also, I have yet to play Overwatch, but i do know some of the lore (well... most of it, but i digress)


King's Row, London 10 P.M. GMT

Karkarius' POV


So, upon escaping Talon's lab, I decided to head to King's Row. I always did love England…

Upon arriving I found a group of humans and omnics alike, waiting for somebody important, if I had to guess, but anyways, I decided to blend with the crowd, I'm quite glad my jacket hides my new wings, they're cool and all, but I doubt people are just gonna ignore them…

So… it turns out that the 'important person' was Tekhartha Mondatta himself!

Blending worked pretty well, until I bumped into some chick with some high tech accessories, I recognized her from the Talon files I stole, she's Lena Oxton, otherwise known as 'Tracer'. She's one of the good guys… I think… Damn it… whatever Talon was doing to me is still fucking with my memory… I gotta find somewhere safe...

I caught a glimpse of something… What was it? Where? As my mind raced back through what I'd just seen, I remembered seeing what looked like the reflection on a scope… but that makes no sense, unless…

I decided to act, grabbing Tracer, I whispered "no time to explain, protect Mondatta, he's in danger", then I threw off my jacket, and took to the skies, racing to a rooftop behind the one where I saw the glare, upon landing, I grab the 2 foot cylinder I took from Talon, and click the button on the side, grinning as the 6 foot tall hammer unfolded "now that's my kind of weapon" still grinning, I raced off towards where I saw the glare, if I'm glad for anything from my old life, it's learning how to freerun.

So, upon finding Widowmaker, I casually leaned against a wall behind her, grinning because she didn't know I was there, or that she had been busted

"Hello Widowmaker, waiting for someone?"

The look of sheer terror on her face! I damn near fainted from laughter!

"How!?"

Shrugging "I have my ways…" making sure that my grip was solid on my hammer, I stood up "so, easy or hard? It makes no difference to me."

Growling, she turned to hit me with the stock of her rifle, I grinned as I caught it, and flipped her over "that was cute, care to try again?" as I spun my hammer in one hand, a seemingly impossible thing, given it's size

Again, she tried to hit me, growling. Some people never learn…

Grabbing the stock of her rifle again, this time I tried to disarm her. Somehow, she escaped my grip and ran off. Chasing after her, I decided to hit the button on my hammer, this time, I was greeted by the sight of a sniper rifle… wait… why is the clip so far back? Wait…. It's not a normal sniper, it's a goddamned railgun! Sweet! I'm all over this, loading a non-lethal round, I took aim at Widowmaker's knee, that should do the trick.

(Yes I am aware of the fact that railguns are basically always lethal, so let's just say that it was a nonlethal round because it was on low power mode)

Firing, and hitting my target, I grinned. Putting away my rifle, I walked over to where she landed "I used to be a sniper like you, then I took a railgun to the knee" I said, laughing "congrats, you've just made the world of the internet laugh, by existing"

About this time Tracer shows up

"Bloody Hell, what is this?"

Shit… hadn't thought this through… still grinning "hello Tracer, glad you could make it" I said, trying to keep the nervousness from showing "I got you a present, the would-be assassin of Tekhartha Mondatta."

Dumbfounded, Tracer looked at me "ok, now that I figured, but who are you?"

My grin fell from my face "yeah... I can't remember my name right now…"

A look of apprehension fell onto her face "oh… you're a Talon experiment…"

As I looked down "yeah…" then, deciding not to be a coward "but,.. I'd like to join Overwatch…."

"Ok…" Tracer seemed kinda… I don't know… nervous?

"I'll sweeten the deal… not only do you get Widowmaker here," as I made sure that the bindings were secure "but I happen to have talon's entire database, as of 2 weeks ago, I haven't looked through it all yet though…"

"Hmm…" she paused for what felt like eternity, but finally she said "you do realize that by joining Overwatch, you'll be wanted by most governments, right?"

"Pfft, what the hell can they do to me, that Talon hasn't already done?" I replied, standing up

She grinned "your choice luv, let's go!" as she ran off, I remembered my name, Karkarius…. Shit… I can't remember my last name…. Hopefully it will come to me….


Watchpoint: Gibraltar 12:30 A.M. CET

Tracer POV


So, this guy, with eagle wings, which I may, or may not want to pet, shows up, and basically gift wraps a Talon assassin for me, what's not to like?

So I took him and the bound Widowmaker to Watchpoint Gibraltar, where I know Winston is, and possibly more members of the old Overwatch crew, and upon arrival I was greeted with hugs from Winston, as he was waiting for us, apparently, my new friend and i had made the news…

"Wait…Hold on luv, you mean to tell me that we're known?"

Winston replied with "yeah…"

With a grin I said "good… the world can do with some inspiration, isn't that right…" as I turned to my new friend I realized that he kinda needed a name "What should we call you, since you can't remember your name?"

"Well, good news on that front," he replied, "I've remembered my first name, Karkarius"

"Hmm… I've heard that name before… I can't quite place it… do you remember your mum's name?"

"No…" he replied, looking sad

Damn it! I made him upset! "Sorry luv, didn't think before I asked…"

Standing up a little bit straighter, he said "It's fine"

shrugging , I turned to winston "well, my new friend Karkarius and I need a place to stay now, since we're wanted for vigilantism... "

Chuckling, Winston replied "you know, I was just about to recall all Overwatch agents, so I suspect that this place is about to get crowded, go ahead to the dorms, each of you pick one, then I'll enter it into the system, got it?"

"Got it" both Karkarius and I replied at the same time "heh, jinx" again, we said it at the same time

I like this guy, I feel like this is the beginning of a long friendship…


AN: So yeah, this idea has been kicking around in my head for a while, and so I decided to start writing, if you want to see more, leave a review or a pm, I'll keep going as long as you keep wanting more
