Bastion doesn't know how he arrived to South Korea according to his internal GPS. He only took a a boat escaping from people that that wanted him destroyed. Now he's at South Korea. It's night, and Bastion doesn't want to attract attention, but his bird companion needs to eat and a place to stay warm. Especially for her eggs according the little information that the bird showed him. Bastion walks through the darkness of the city until he found an abandoned garage. So he set himself there. The garage was nearly destroyed, but it would work to hide from the city. Bastion repaired a few things from the garage to be more protected and hidden. Bastion's bird, which he decided to call her Ganymede, was sitting on her nest warming her eggs. Bastion put Ganymede with her nest on a table, then he sat on the floor, resting its legs for the long travel they did standing all the time. It is time for them to get some rest, so they can continue with their travel tomorrow. But they were unaware of what it was coming from the sea...

Next morning...

Hana, along with her fellow gamer friends, were making the final preparations for their new mission. A new Omnic army was about to attack the city, and was stronger than ever. This new Omnic learned each time it attacks, and now it was about to attack with everything it has to offer. The South Korean Government improved the MEKA's systems and technology to protect better the pilot. Everything on the MEKA was improved: the defense matrix now last longer and recharge faster. The propulsion now can last nearly a day without needing to return to the floor and recharge. Proton cannons fire faster and do more damage. The sensibility of the controls now CMA be modified according to the pilot's likes. MEKA's speed is now double thanks to the new motors the SK (South Korean) Government put on them. The gamers were testing the brand new MEKAs to see how it feels.

"It feels better than ever." Said one of Hana's friends.

"Yeah, better motors, canons, shields and propulsion systems." Said Hana.

"Alright kids! You better had checked the new MEKAs, cause the enemy is reaching this place in a few days! So you better get ready to go!" Screamed one of the military officers to the gamers.

All of them activated their MEKAs and were sent to the coordinates of the incoming Omnic invasion. If they were lucky, it would be the las time they will see those Omnics. The group flew for some more minutes, chatting, joking and checking sometimes again the new and upgraded equipment. Soon, they were getting close to their destination.

"Commander, we are arriving at the coordinates." Said Hana. "Preparing for land."

All of the MEKAs landed on different places, as planed. Their plan is to take the enemy by surprise. The tactic is simple: one distract the objective while the others attack from behind. That tactic was used 3 years ago, on the last attack, and it worked perfectly. Now, they expect to work again.

"Ok. The enemy is coming from the south. You'll need to be cautious on your strategy. If we lose one of you, you need to fall back and attack with the rest of our army when the invasion reaches our perimeter. If this works, then we won't see those Omnics never again. Don't do anything too risky, and return home safe. Commander out."

"And the game just started." Said Hana turning on her streaming to her fans.

"Once we have won this, the energized drinks are on me." Said one of Hana's friends, Kysh.

"You got it, Ky! We'll waste all of your money on those!" Said every single friend of Hana to Kysh. But soon, they started hearing heavy footsteps from the distance. And grew louder and louder as the minutes passed. Once the army of huge Omnics appeared in front of them, they attacked with their strategy, thinking that it would work.

Bastion doesn't even know why those Omnics attacked his hidden place. They destroyed the garage but they didn't pay him attention. The thing that get upset Bastion was their attempt to attack Ganymede and her eggs. So Bastion attacked them, destroying them quickly. Bastion decided that it would be safer for Ganymede and her eggs to be put on some other place, so he carefully put the nest on his right shoulder and started walking into the city, being careful to not to attract the attention of those Omnics. Bastion walks through the streets and was surprised to see them so empty. While he was walking through the streets, he heard Ganymede jump from his shoulder to a near food shop. Ganymede hasn't eaten for a day, and she was starving. As soon as they were inside, Bastion heard a massive sound. Bastion looked at the windows and saw a huge waves of Omnics, ready to destroy everything on their way. Bastion remained hidden inside the shop, while Ganymede eats. He saw how one of those Omnics destroyed easily a building, smashing the first floor and with canon destroying the rest of the buildings. Bastion checked his systems and equipment. It says:

Sentry's Gun: Perfect condition

Sentry's Ammo: 2007

Reckon's Gun: Good condition

Reckon's Ammo: 213

Tank Configuration: 71% charged

Tank Configuration's Ammo: 17

Energy Shield: Error004QR34. Shield device damaged. Not able to protect from enemy fire

Armor State: Change soon. Won't survive big confrontation

Repair Tool: Acceptable conditions. Can repair any small damage

Mine Drone: ErrorTW205. Drone cannot be found on hardware

Bastion knows he can't win to those huge Omnics. He knows that his armor won't take that amount of damage. If he wants to destroy them, he will need help. But how gain help? Bastion looks at his surroundings, and saw a lot of metal sheets on the floor. He used his scanner and the results were satisfactory. He can't change his armor on his own now, but he can add those metal sheets on his armor to protect better himself from enemy fire. He will need help from others to change his armor and repair the rest of his systems. So while Ganymede eats, Bastion twisted and joined metal sheets among them until he created 6 sheets of 15mm thick each for his armor and adds them carefully. Once he finished that, Ganymede joined him sitting on his right shoulder and they both made their way outside of the food shop. They found that those huge Omnics were far away, but they heard strong shouts and firing. They even heard an explosion coming further inside the city. So Bastion makes his way to the noises.

'This can't be happening.' Hana though. 'This can't be happening!' The plan was to take by surprise the enemy Omnics, 3 were going to be the hook bait while the others fire to the Omnics. It was a simple and fast plan. But the pan was compromised by some little drones that can defend the bigger Omnics, making hard to destroy one. The drones can also attack their MEKAs and pass through their shields.

"There are so many!" Yelled Hana's best friend,

"We won't be able to destroy them!"

"We need to fall back!" Shouted Hana.

"What?! No! We have to win!" Said Kysh.

"We can't win this! There are so many! They are beating us!"

"ALL UNITS! RETURN TO BASE! REPEAT! RETURN TO BASE! We'll handle this situation with you on base!"

Everyone activated their MEKA's propulsion engines and set course to base. Hana was the last one to activate them, but doing that, her MEKA was hit and the engines were damaged.

"I've been hit!" Shouted Hana as she fall to the ground.

"Hana! We need to get back and help her!" Said MBo.

"No! You need to return to base! If you go, you will be beaten by them! It won't help in anything Hana if you do that!" Said the Commander.

"But-!"

"He's right, B. Once we have returned to base, we will be able to help her. But now is not the moment." Said Kysh.

MBo held her tears as the flew back to base.

Hana's MEKA hit the floor hard, damaging part of the hardware. She ran a scan over it, and the results weren't how she was hoping:

Defense Matrix: 43% of capacity, time charge has increased by 2.1

Propulsion: Can't fly. High damage

Cannons: Can fire. Unlimited ammunition

Other: Speed is compromised. MEKA's speed will be slow when attacks. Need repairs soon.

Hana cursed under her breath. If she doesn't return to base soon, the Omnics will eventually find and destroy her.

"I wonder how much time do I have before the Omnics can reach Base." Hana said. According to her MEKA, the Omnics will arrive to Base in 2 days. She needs to move fast. But before Hana could move, some noises were approaching from the distance. Using the zoom of her visor, she could see the same drones approaching to her.

"Oh... no..."Hana said with tears threatening to fall from her eyes and her hands started to shake with fear.

Bastion heard more fire, then a heavy sound falling onto the ground on north. Bastion made his way there. Ganymede was a little scared because of the loud sound, but she stayed on Bastion's shoulder with her eggs. Once Bastion arrives to where the sound was coming, he saw a lot of little drones attacking something pink. Bastion used his scans and found that that was a kind of Mech and inside was keeping alive a person, and according to his scans, was a female human. Bastion runs there but first he set on the floor Ganymede and her eggs carefully. After he set them safe, Bastion went to aid that Mech, firing his arm gun, destroying some drones that were about to get over the Mech's back.

After that, Bastion went to Sentry mode and started firing to the drones, hoping it would help the female to get into safety.

Tears were running through Hana's cheeks. 'This is it. This is my end.' Hana thought. The drones were too many for her. Her MEKA was taking too much damage and if it doesn't stop, it will destroy it, leaving her defenseless. Suddenly, something started firing to some drones that wanted to get on her back, then, a rain of bullets destroyed every drone around her. When Hana looked behind her, she gasp to find out that the thing that saved her was, in fact, a Bastion Unit in its Turret mode. 'They are supposed to be destroyed. All of them! Why is one here? And why has helped me?' Hana asks on her head. The Bastion Unit returned to its Sentry form and started walking to the opposite way of the street. It bent down, put something on its right shoulder and return to where she is. When Bastion approached Hana, she realized that the thing he put on his shoulder was, in fact, a nest with eggs and a bird sitting on it. Before Hana could do anything, her MEKA shut itself down, ejecting her safely to the ground. Now, without her MEKA, and a Bastion Unit as a possible foe, Hana doesn't know if she will eventually see the sunrise again.

The Bastion Unit walks up to her, and Hana slowly take out her pistol in case. The Bastion Unit is on front of her, and Hana closes her eyes, waiting for the shoot that is about to come...
