Re-deployment
Mercy was suddenly awoken in her chair by a sound she hadn't heard in a long time. It seemed that she had fallen asleep at her desk once again. What woke her up wasn't the hospital call buzzer, but instead it came from the old Overwatch communicator on her wrist, upon which the organization's symbol pulsed rhythmically. Hesitant but curious at the same time, the blonde medic tapped on the glowing symbol and it stopped, only to be replaced by the voice of an old friend. Winston's. Smiling softly, she listened to his message, which sounded urgent. "To all Overwatch agents, I am initiating a total recall! We've been dormant for too long! I won't standby idly as the world destroys itself again! The world needs heroes once again. Are you with me?".
The message cut off there but Angela already had an answer in mind. Turning to a corner of her office, she then pressed a hidden button on her desk. Slowly, a large glass case rose from the floor, which contained her Valkyrie suit within. Angela looked down at her wrist communicator again, which now said, "Deployment countdown: 72 hours remaining". Looking back at the glass case, the medic smiled to herself as she went to prepare her Caduceus Staff and Blaster. The Valkyrie will fly again. Overwatch's guardian angel has returned for active duty.
It didn't take long for Angela to gear up, easily slipping into the suit as if it was second nature to her, which it probably was. She stretched and flexed her fingers as the familiar voice of Athena greeted her in her earpiece and the heads-up display (HUD) which was only visible to the medic came online. "Hello, Dr. Ziegler. All systems check out. Valkyrie suit is online and fully operational", the digitized female voice said as Mercy finally placed the halo-like headpiece upon her head. Taking a deep breath, the blonde medic holstered her Caduceus Blaster and picked up her staff before moving to leave her office, but stopping when she saw her reflection in the mirror. No longer was she Dr. Angela Ziegler, she was now Mercy, Overwatch agent. The golden wings upon her back softly glowed, as if they were old friends warmly greeting her again.
With a smile, Mercy quickly made her way to the main entrance of the hospital, drawing gasps and shocked looks from patients, nurses and fellow doctors. Once she was standing in the main compound of the hospital, the medic spread her golden wings wide, which began to glow brightly, casting its warmth and light across any and all who looked upon her. A pillar of light seemed to surround her and shoot up into the sky before it abruptly disappeared and Mercy launched herself upwards, using the navigation protocols in her HUD to guide herself to the only remaining Overwatch base she knew existed. Watchpoint: Gibraltar. Angling herself in mid-air, the medic then shot forward, the light surrounding her form making it look like she was a comet streaking across the night-time sky. People looked up and pointed at her as she passed overhead, their mouths agape as their eyes fell upon what could only be an angel. It didn't take long for her to arrive at the small island base, where she landed softly in front of several of her old friends. Reinhardt with his signature Crusader armor and hammer. Lena was already fidgeting with her pulse pistols, her chronal accelerator glowing brightly in the middle of her chest. Torbjorn and Winston stood behind her. "Welcome back, Angela", the gorilla scientist said as he padded over and placed a large hand on her shoulder, a large smile on his face. Mercy returned the smile and answered, "Mercy, reporting for duty. It's great to be back, Winston".
