Hana jumped back, but then sighed in relief. "Huh Genji its just you."
"Of course who else would it be?"
"Well I sort of ran in to a group of guys who captured me and... took all my stuff."
"Can't you just summon it back?" Genji asked. "Well I don't know since we're over 100 years before the present, well our present"
"Lets try I guess." Hana said typing a few keys on her wrist popping up a screen. "Syncing with mech..." a robotic voice said. "Sync failed...try again?"
Hana pressed no and the screen disappeared. "Well looks like we'll have to go on foot." Genji shrugged. "We should find the others first before apprehending the task at hand." Genji said. "You do have the map that Winston gave all of us. Right?"
"Yeah yeah." she said bringing up the digital screen showing a topographic map of the area. A few red points shone on certain areas of the map. "Who should we go for first?" she asked. "Mercy, we might need a medic." Genji replied pointing to a point labeled 'Mercy'. "All right." Hana and Genji started off towards Mercy's point.
In a van labeled 'Red Bread', in it Engineer drove, while Scout slept in the passenger's seat. Medic sat in the back of the van writing in a journal. Then suddenly in the headlights a giant figure stood in the headlights. "What in Sam Hill is that?!" Engineer exclaimed as he slammed on the brakes. As the van lurched forward, Medic fell out of his chair and Scout gashed his head on the glove box. "Ah what the hell?!" Scout whined holding the gash on his head. "Vhat za hell?!" Medic Angrily stormed up. "Vhy did you stop?!" Medic asked. "That." Engineer pointed towards the figure. "Everyone get your weapons." Engineer said picking up his shot-gun as he exited the van. Scout and Medic followed Engineer weapons at the ready. Engineer waved them off. "Its okay guys just hit some animal." Engineer said inspecting the mound of black fur, metal, and blood. "Well maybe we could take it home, and grill it." Engineer said poking it with his finger. "I guess." Scout said. "Alright help me move this." Engineer said grabbing one side, as Scout and Medic grabbed the opposite ends. Even with the three of them they could barely get it off the ground. Then the eyes opened it's fingers started moving, and his toes twitched. "Uh Doc I think its still alive." Scout strained as the leg started moving. "No its just a spasm." Medic said. Just then the leg shot out and kicked Scout in the chest. Scout's body flew through the air into the brush. "Ough!" Scout grunted as he hit a tree. Then its head slammed back cracking Engineer's hard hat, creating a small gash on his head. As the giant fur ball fell onto the ground it almost immediately got right back up glowing a bright red. The animal looked around, seeing the injured men the red shade disappeared. "Oh I'm so sorry." the Ape apologized. "Vow! The ape can talk!" Medic exclaimed. "Why are you so surprised?" The ape asked. "Vait are you Winston?" Medic approached the Ape. "Yes that is my name." Winston replied putting his glasses back on. "Perfect." Medic smiled. His arm shot out jabbing his neck with a syringe. "I have some research to do." Medic smiled sadistically, as Winston's consciousness faded. "Valright. Perfect." Medic smiled as he walked over to Engineer. "You valright?" Medic asked helping Engineer up. "Yeah yeah I'm good." he waved off Medic. Then Scout walked out of the bushes. "God damn it. Is this just my worst day or what?!" Scout laughed clutching his stomach. "Excuse me." Scout said as he puked in a nearby bush. Medic slightly laughed, then grabbed his Medi-gun. "Its okay." Medic said healing Scout. "Thanks Doc." Scout heaved out. "Vanyway lets get this ape back to the fort."
It was almost dawn as the three mercanaries finally got back to the fort. "Heavy!" Medic called out. Heavy still half asleep looked at Medic in confused. "Doktor what do you need?" Heavy called out. "Help us move this Ape we found. "Alright Heavy is on his way." Heavy walking out of the fort.
After Heavy helped them carry Winston to Medic's lab, Engineer went to his room and collapsed onto his bed. "Wait! Engie can't you make breakfast first?!" Scout asked through his door. "No! Heavy will." He screamed back at Scout. "Alright." Scout whimpered walking away. Then Engineer fell asleep.
Back in the Forest...
Mercy was at a river washing her hands in a stream when she heard a rustling in the bushes. She looked behind herself, her hands gripping around her pistol as the bushes kept rustling. Then Hana fell out of the bush falling on her face. "Augh, Damn this time." Hana brushing herself off. "Hana are you alright?" Genji came out helping her up. "Genji, Hana! Thank goodness you're alright." She hugged both of them. "Oh I thought I was alone." she cried out. "Um Angela we've got a big problem."
"What are you talking about." she said as she released them. "Well we're 100 years from where we came from." Hana explained. Angela was confused. "What...What do you mean?"
"We're in the year 1968." Hana said. "Oh um okay." Angela stuttered. "Vwell we should find Winston for the time machine." Mercy said. "Okay... Crap!" Hana muttered. "Whats wrong?" Genji asked.
"You know those guys I told you about?"
"Yeah."
"Well I have a feeling they have Winston"
"Why?"
"Well he's in a building and its the only building for miles."
"Well it could still be anyone."
"Yeah like I said it's just a feeling."
Back at Teufort...
The nine mercenaries ate eggs and sausage around a large round table. "Ven when the patient woke up, the Doctor was never seen again." Medic burst out laughing after that sentence, followed by the other mercenaries laughing along with him. "Oh Doktor Heavy likes your stories." Heavy patted Medic on the back. "Danke Heavy." Medic smiled. Then a crashing sound came from Medic's lab. "Oh Looks like the ape has woken." Medic laughed walking to his lab.
Medic walked in to his to see Winston tapping buttons on his wrist watch. "Oh ho ho. You shouldn't be doing that." Medic chucked injecting Winston with a syringe."No..gu ugh" Winston grumbled. "Vhat were you doing?" Medic asked himself staring at the holographic screen then it blinked revealing a mysterious feminine face. "Hey Winston Whats the matter?" a British voice asked. "Oh... What an interesting technology." Medic inquired as he tapped on the holographic screen. "What have you've done to Winston?"
"Oh none of your business." Medic said destroying Winston's wrist device, ending the call.
