Time Error
Chapter 4: A day in the future part 2
Once Engineer got settled in the new room, he decided to check on his TTPB, the screen was cracked and the inner parts of the TTPB were damaged, but to Engie's relief the parts are still fixable but will take longer than it took to build the TTPB to fix it. He sighed, grateful that he was not gunna be stuck in the future forever. Now the only problem was that he only had a wrench, and sadly its gunna take more than a wrench to fix the TTPB, and his other equipments were left in his working room.
Engineeer: Darn…if im gunna fix my Time Travel Pip Boy im gunna need to borrow some equipment from this time then, question is where am I gunna find them.
He asked himself while scratching the back of his neck. He then heard a soft knock on his door before hearing a Britain accent.
"Hello…are you in there love?"
Engineer opened the door to see Tracer.
Engineer: Would you not call me love, its gettin a bit annoying and I have a name you know.
Tracer: Sorry but its kinda what I like doing, but anyway I wanted to apologize for taking your stuff away and letting them interrogate you…even after you saved my head twice.
Tracer looked down in shame, Engineer chuckled at the scene as it reminded him of Scout, usually when they argue it was always Scout that goes to him to apologies.
Engineer: Ah don't get yourself down because you had a job to do, because of that Talon guy making trouble, you can't be too sure to check some random guy like me am I right?
Tracer looked up at Engineer with smile on her face before giving him a deadly hug, her legs off of the floor as she squeezed the life out of him.
"Wow! For a girl who looks young she is pretty strong." Engineer thought as his soul was squeezed out.
Once Tracer released him he sucked his soul back into his body as well as some fresh air.
Tracer: Thanks lo-I mean Engie, im gunna call you that since its better than calling you Engineer, I owe you big time! If there is anything you need just ask.
Tracer said, very happy she has a new friend.
Engineer: Now now there is no need to owe me, you did save my life back when we were fighting that sniper.
Tracer: Yeah but you saved me two times so I still owe you, do you need anything right now?
Engineer thought if there was anything he needed help with and remembered his problem with the TTPB.
Engineer: Well…I actually do need some help at the moment, my device was damaged badly before taking me here, do you know anyone who has some tools that would help me fix it?
Tracer: *giggles* Engie how lucky are you, Winston and Symmetra are all about machines, im very sure they have the right tools.
Engineer: Winston and Symmetra? Alrighty then do you mind taking me to them?
Tracer: Sure follow me.
And with that they started walking towards Winston's room first, when they got there Tracer knocked on the door and after hearing a slight muffle saying "Come in" she opened the door to reveal her best friend eating a banana with peanut butter. Engineer did his best not to laugh at the sight as he did not want to make Winston feel bad.
Tracer: Hey Winston! Engie here needs some assistance with his time travel thingy.
Engineer: You mean the TTPB.
Tracer: Yeah that.
Winston finished off his banana before walking towards the two.
Winston: Well how can I help you Engineer?
Engineer: I just need to borrow some tools that would help me repair the TTPB.
Winston: May I see the damages so I can give you the right tools?
Engineer: Sure just be careful with it.
Engineer gave Winston the TTPB and Winston carefully looked over it before looking back at the Engineer.
Winston: I know just the equipment for this, Ill be right back.
Winston said as he walked deeper into his room. While Engineer was waiting he looked around with awe, so amazed by how many gizmos and gadgets there were. After ten minutes Winston came back with a tool box.
Winston: Every tool you need to fix your device is in this tool box, now knowing that your use to using older tools, Ive picked the oldest tools I could find for you to use, but if you have any difficulty I am sure Symmetra would be willing to help out.
"Thanks." Engie said before exiting the room with Tracer following.
Tracer: Anything else you need Engie?
Engineer: Symmetra does want to see my building so could you take me to her?
Tracer: Sure thing.
After another long walk since their base was big, they reached Symmetra's room, Tracer knocked and after a few seconds Symmetra opened the door.
"Yes?" Symmetra asked, Tracer shifted her head towards the Engineer.
Tracer: He wanted to see you.
Symmetra: Did he?
Engineer: W-well because you did want to s-see my machines right? Engineer said trying his best not to stutter.
Symmetra: Oh yes! Please come in.
Symmetra said very excitedly, letting Engineer in but blocked Tracer. Tracer: Hey!
Symmetra: Not you Tracer, go on with your business.
Tracer gave Symmetra the puppy face while saying "Please let me in." "No." Symmetra said plainly, not being affected by Tracer's puppy face, Engineer however was not so lucky.
Engineer: Tracer could just watch, while not touching anything, that's what I do when someone wants to be in my work room.
Engineer suggested, Symmetra thought about this before letting Tracer in.
Symmetra: Touch anything and ill torture you.
Tracer: You know I could just rewind to when I wasn't injured right?
Symmetra then leaned closer to Tracer's ear.
Symmetra: *whispers* But you would still feel the pain.
Tracer felt chills go down her spine and quickly agreed to not touch anything, Engineer could see the frightened face of Tracer and chuckled, Symmetra then lead Engineer to a clear platform and had Engie stand on it.
Symmetra: Ok Engineer, show me your machines.
Engineer nodded before dropping a tool box and clicked a few buttons on the PDA and said "Building a dispencer." The tool box opened and the dispencer started to build, while the Engie took out his wrench and started to whack the building a few times to increase the building speed. Symmetra's mind was already coming up with questions like "What does this dispencer do?" Tracer only had one question which was "Where the heck did he get that tool box?" When the dispencer was finished building a red screen turned on to reveal the metal meter, and a red beam came out of the dispencer and touched the Engineer. Both Tracer and Symmetra were fascinated by the red beam.
Symmetra: Excuse me Engineer but what does the red beam do?
Engineer: It's a healing beam, it heals anyone injured but it's not as fast as Medic's healing medigun.
"Medic? You mean Mercy?" Tracer asked, Engineer looked at her confused but remembered they don't know who he was talking about, he decided to correct his mistake as he did not want to talk about his co-workers, he did sign a contract not to.
Engineer: Yeah Mercy, forgot her name.
He then moved on to make a sentry, once it was finish building it aimed side to side repeatedly.
Engineer: This sentry gun here was design to automatically aim at an enemy that comes in sight or is within the range.
Engineer said proudly, happy that someone actually takes interest in his machines, Symmetra hummed with interest, Tracer was just glad the sentry was not aiming for her.
Symmetra: Amazing but what about your teleporters?
Engineer then made the teleporter entrance and exit, after it finished building they started spinning very fast and a light red glow started appearing above them, Engineer then decided to give them an example, he stepped on top of the entrance and was immediately teleported to the exit but caught a pretzel as he exited out of the exit teleporter. Symmetra and Tracer were amused by the sudden appearance of a pretzel, Engineer kindly offered it to them.
Symmetra: *laughs* Why did your teleporter just make a pretzel come out of nowhere?"
Engineer: *chuckles* Lets just say one of my co-workers were having way too much fun with my teleporters.
Engineer said, hiding the fact that Soldier was responsible since he has been teleporting bread for two days straight. Engineer then decided to do an example for his dispencer, he thought of a funny way to do it and grinned. When the healing beam touched him he took out his pistol and aimed it to his chest, making sure not to shoot his heart, he made a sad face while waving his hand before pulling the trigger and falling to the floor. The act almost made Symmetra faint, Tracer had to rewind to when she was not choking on the half eaten pretzel before running towards the Engineer, Symmetra followed. Both Overwatch agents were on each side of the Engineer.
Symmetra: Tracer call Mercy!
"Why would he do something like that?" Tracer thought as she started to run towards the door but stopped as she heard a chuckle. First it was a soft chuckle but then turned into hard laughter, Tracer turned around to see Engineer sitting up and leaning on his dispencer looking like he is dying from laughing instead of dying from a bullet, Symmetra looking at Engineer with disbelief and shock.
Engineer: HAHAHAHA! *coughs* YOU SHOULD OF SEEN THE LOOK ON YOUR FACES!
Engineer said as he got up, he lifted his shirt up to see the bullet wound was gone but there was a little bit of blood.
"And that's how fast my dispencer heals." Engineer said, expecting a applause for how great his invention is but to only receive glares from both women who are not amused by his actions.
Engineer (nervous): *chuckles* Ok maybe I should of tried a different way to demonstrate the dispencer.
Tracer: Do you think he can survive more than one bullet with the dispencer?
Tracer asked giving Symmetra an evil smile. Symmetra looked at the Engineer and gave him an evil grin.
Symmetra: Even if he didn't im sure Mercy can revive him.
Engineer gulped before making the sentry, dispencer, and teleporter self-destruct at the same time causing the room to be filled with smoke, Engineer then took the tool box that Winston gave him and ran out of the room, Symmetra and Tracer soon followed after recovering from the smoke, searching for their prey.
*Back in 1968*
After the mercenaries came back from their little break, they find Scout laying on the floor unconscious with several burn marks on him. Medic took him to his lab and fixed Scout up, after Scout recovered they asked what happened, they expected the answer to be that the blue team attacked again but to receive a rather strange answer. Scout said that Engineer was making a new weapon that would give them the ability to time travel but when Engineer tried to test it out a huge explosion happened in Engineer's room, none of the mercs believed him until they saw Engineer's room, a huge black explosion mark covered the floor, the items in the room were either burned or destroyed. Heavy thought that Engie was dead, but the Medic said that Engie would of respawned then, Scout suggested that the invention worked but the mercs doubted that, they only came to one conclusion then….it was another respawn failure. Scout gasped as he remembered the many other respawn failures that happened, there use to be more than just 7 of them, both red and blue had lost team members, but now that they just lost another class…the Engineer, Scout couldn't believe it. They all bowed their heads down for a moment of silence, Soldier as the leader of the team exited the room, but then came back in.
Soldier: I EXPECT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU MAGGOT HEADS TO BE UP AND READY BY SUNRISE! NO QUESTIONS ASKED! IF YOU MAGGOTS ARE NOT UP AND READY BY THEN ENGIE WOULD NOT BE THE ONLY ONE DEAD! GOOD NIGHT!
And that's when he left, everyone looked at each other with confusion and shock. They thought their leader of the team would care about a death of a team member, they also wondered why they had to get up so early but followed their orders. Almost all of them…..Scout was still in Engineer's room, still shocked that his friend is dead, he didn't wanna leave the room but sleepiness over took him and he headed for his room.
*5 hours later*
They all woke up and got ready by sunrise just like they were told to, they found Soldier in the meeting room, he was holding a tombstone in his right arm and was holding a trumpet in his left hand. Soldier then ordered them to follow him and started walking out of the base, they followed him as he leaded them outside of the battlefield and on to a clear hill. Soldier then planted the tombstone into the ground and took a step away from it, he then saluted the tombstone as he said his farewell to the Engineer "I KNOW WE DID NOT GET ALONG WELL MAGGOT, AND I KNOW I CALLED YOU MAGGOT MANY TIMES MAGGOT…BUT YOU WERE AND WILL BE FOREVER A GOOD SOLDIER IN MY BOOK…..Engineer." Soldier then ended his salute and took a spot next to the tombstone before he started playing his trumpet, each of the other mercs said their farewells as well leaving only the Scout left to say his.
Scout: Engie…buddy…im sorry I laughed at ya when you were killed by that other engineer, if it wasn't for any of us laughing at you…im pretty sure you would still be here with us.
The other mercs nodded in agreement.
Scout: Man im gunna miss ya…you were the only guy that would never tell me to shut up whenever I talk to ya.
The mercs also nodded in agreement, Scout was doing his best not to cry in front of them, he didn't wanna look weak to them but one tear escaped from his eyelids and ran down his cheek, he hoped no one noticed. "Prepare for battle in 1 hour and 30 minutes!" the Administrator announced, her voice could be heard from their base, everyone left to get back to base, leaving only Soldier and Scout behind. Soldier finished playing his trumpet and started walking towards the base but stopped next to Scout and placed a hand on Scout's shoulder.
Soldier: He will be missed, but we shall give those blue maggots hell for even existing, if it weren't for them he would still be here.
And with that he left, Scout got up to leave but before he did he took out a bottle of beer and placed it in front of the tombstone.
Scout: Heres that bottle of beer I owed ya, ya know for savin my ass from that blue scout that was hard to say it better than me.
Scout then got up and went back to his base.
*Back in 2076*
Engineer was still running towards his room, well at least he thinks, the base was so huge people can easily get lost. While he was running he looked back to see if they were still following, but slipped on something slippery and fell on his back.
"Oh my gosh im so sorry!"
Engineer groaned and rubbed the back of his head, he tried to get up but noticed the ground was cold and slippery. The person helped Engineer get up and Engie noticed he slipped on ice, he turned to look at the person to see it was another lady. She was wearing a very heavy looking winter coat and had glasses on, she wore huge winter boots and had blue gloves on, and there was a little robot with two eyes floating around her. "When am I gunna stop meeting strange women around here or is it in the future when all women strange?" Engineer thought to himself.
?:Hey! You're the new guy around here, Engineer right?
Engineer: Yes I am, and you are?
?: *giggles* oh my apologies my name is Mei.
Engineer: Mei? Its nice to meet you Mei but im kinda in a hurry right now.
Mei: Why?
Engineer: Oh well I tricked Tracer and Symmetra to think that im dead but apparently now they want me dead. Mind helping out and holding them off for me?
Mei: *rolled her eyes* those two honestly hate it when they get pranked, go on I got them.
Engineer: Much obliged!
Engineer then picked up the tool box and continued to run, while he was running he saw Winston walking towards him. Engineer then ran towards Winston in hope of searching for safety.
Winston: Engineer, why are you running?
Engineer (tired): It's a long story.
Winston: I can tell.
Engineer: But could you help me find my room? I still need to put the tool box in my room, but I can't find my room.
Winston: Engineer.
Engineer: What?
Winston: Your standing right next to it.
Engineer then looked to his right to see a door with his name on it, he grumbled unintelligent words as he walked inside and set the tool box on the table then said thanks to Winston, but before he could close the door he saw Tracer and Symmetra looking like they just took a swim at Antarctica. His mouthed dropped to the floor as he saw them walk towards him.
Tracer: S-sor-rry f-for ch-chas-sing y-you, b-but p-pl-please no m-more t-tricks.
Tracer said while shivering, her teeth shaking. Winston rolled his eyes as he assumed Mei was responsible for this, he then guided Tracer and Symmetra to get them warmed up. Engineer sighed wondering how stupid he looked in front of Winston. Engineer saw his TTPB on the table right next to the tool box Winston gave him and decided to get to work.
*4 hours later*
Engineer was still working on his TTPB, not even close to fixing it, but the tools Winston gave him were useful and he planned to thank him later. He decided to take a break for a bit, noticing how tired his hands were and his back cracked for being in the same position for a long time. He decided to take a break and get some fresh air, he noticed it was 9:31 p.m., he exited his room and looked out in the empty hall ways, he wondered how the Overwatch agents don't get lost in this place, Engie decided to walk straight thinking that he would get somewhere. Engineer eventually did reach a room with the Overwatch agents inside, Winston was on his computer with Tracer talking to him, Mercy was drinking coffee, Mei was playing with her little robot friend, Soldier: 76 was leaning on a wall away from the other agents with his arms crossed, and Reinhardt was talking to Symmetra. Engie notice another person he has not seen, it was another lady. She wore blue armor and had a jet pack, she had a helmet with the front that looked like a golden peak. She looked right at the Engineer and whispered something to Mercy, both of them laughed. He then noticed Tracer glaring at the two, both of the ladies stopped their laughing and continued to talk, Tracer walked up to the Engineer.
Tracer: Well it's about time you got out of that room, honestly do you even know how long you have been in there?
Engineer: Nope, but believe it or not ive worked longer than 10 hours.
Tracer: *giggles* I can tell! You know for a guy who is from the past, you are not so interested in the future.
Engineer: What can I say? Im a boring guy.
Tracer: Well would you like something to eat, you haven't eaten anything ever since you got here.
Just when Engineer was about to answer, his stomach answered for him as he and Tracer heard it growl.
Engineer: Hehe, I usually forget about eating while working, it is only when I take a break when I actually pay attention to my body's needs.
Tracer: You could almost relate to Winston, he works a lot but eats while working. I'll be back with your snack.
As Tracer left the room Engineer continued to look around, and notices Mercy and the other lady approach him.
Mercy: Hello Engineer, I would like for you to meet Pharah.
Pharah: Greetings, and I apologize for laughing at you.
Engineer: Let me guess…because of my appearance?
Pharah: Yes.
Engineer: Not a surprise.
Engineer then sees that she is armed with rockets. "There is way too many people here that reminds me of home, Pharah reminds me of Soldier, Mercy reminds me of Medic, Tracer reminds me of Scout, Widomaker reminds me of Sniper, and Mei reminds me of Pyro in some way." Enigneer thought. While Engineer was stuck in his thoughts, Pharah waved her hands in front of his face which knocked him out of his thoughts.
Pharah: Are you alright?
Engineer: Huh? Oh yea im fine, it's just that a lot of you guys or should I say ladies, remind me of my co-workers.
Pharah: Your co-workers must be very similar to us then, do you mind telling us about them?
Engineer thought about this, he was not suppose to talk about his co-workers as he did sign a contract back then, but he doesn't think that would matter in the future. But still he hesitates to tell.
Engineer: I don't think now is a good time, maybe later.
Pharah nodded in understatement and walked away. Engineer took a seat near a table and saw Tracer coming towards him with his meal, that being rations.
Tracer: This is not much but it does fill you up.
Engineer: That's fine, ive eaten worst.
Engineer said as he took a bite out of the ration. Engineer remembered the time he and the whole red team let Pyro make dinner, it was a mistake….a BIG mistake. The kitchen was on fire, and the food was completely burnt, they all had to eat the food because they were so hungry, plus in fear of what Pyro would do to them if they didn't eat. As Engineer continued to munch on his ration the room started to flash red and a alarm started to go off, Winston turned his full attention towards his computer and looked to see what caused the alarms.
Tracer: What is it Winston?
Winston: Intruders! They have broken into the base, and its Talon's agents and his men! Everyone get ready!
Everyone grabbed their weapons and took position, Engineer grabbed his shotgun and held it close to his chest and then took position next to Winston. Everyone were aiming towards each door waiting for the door to bust open, but were caught surprised when Talon's men burst through the ceiling. Bullets were soon flying everywhere, Winston was taking on 3 soldiers, Reinhardt was swinging his Rocket Hammer everywhere hitting many soldiers, Tracer was blinking and shooting everywhere, Soldier: 76 was taking down multiple enemies down with his Pulse rifle, Mercy was healing Pharah as she shoots rockets at the soldiers, Mei was freezing the soldiers, Symmetra was making her turrents on the walls and Engineer was shooting the soldiers with his shotgun. The Overwatch agents including the Engineer were doing good holding them off and soon all the soldiers fell to the floor. They thought it was over until they heard a very dark laughter.
Soldier: 76: ITS REAPER GET TO COVER!
Soon the room was being filled by a black mist and a dark figure appeared in the center of the black mist.
Reaper: DIE! DIE! DIE!
Red bullets were filling up the room, Mei blocked the bullets by making a huge ice wall shielding her, Mercy, Pharah and Symmetra. Reinhardt used his shield to block most of the bullets to protect Soldier: 76, but taking a bit of damage as his shield broke down, Winston and Tracer were taking cover behind a wall, Engineer was hiding behind the remains of a couch. Once the shooting stopped Reaper disappeared into the black mist, then more soldiers started coming through the hole in the ceiling attacking with more fire power.
Winston: Engineer! Go protect our intelligence! That's what they are after!
Engineer: I get lost in this base a lot! I don't know where it is! And what about you guys?!
Winston: Go straight and take a left! We will be fine now go!
Engineer: Bu-
Soldier: 76: GET GOING!
And with that Engineer got up and ran straight to the door and went down a hallway then took a left, sure enough he reached the intel room. He locked the door and barricaded it. Engineer looked around in the room to see a huge futuristic looking computer, "That must be where their intel is." Engineer thought. He then checked how much bullets he has left in his shotgun to see that he only had 6 shots left, he decided to switch to his pistol. Engineer then decided to make a sentry, he placed the sentry a couple feet away from the door and started building it. When he was close to making it a level 2 sentry he kneeled in front of it and gave it a little talk knowing that it only understands him when it's a level 1, he only designed it to shoot the blue team but now he is gunna have to teach it to shoot someone else.
Engineer: Now you listen here little gun, you shoot anything that threatens your creator you understand?
The red sentry beeped and nodded in response before Engineer gave it another whack with his wrench to make it a level 2 sentry. Engineer heard a loud bang on the door, someone was struggling to open the door from outside. Engineer hid behind cover and aimed his pistol at the door as it was breaking open, then the banging on the door stopped for only 5 seconds before the door exploded. Then 6 soldiers came in immediately and aimed their guns at the Engineer, the red sentry saw this and quickly spun its two miniguns before firing rapidly at the soldiers, before Engie knew it all the soldiers fell to the ground with a loud thump.
Engineer: That's what ya get.
Engineer remarked before another Talon soldier came in charging straight for him.
Enemy soldier: RAHHHH!*dead*
The soldier was instantly killed by the level 2 sentry.
Engineer: Nope.
Engineer was starting to get worried about the Overwatch agents, he was wondering how those 7 soldiers got past them. Engie decided to make a dispencer to get more ammo and metal, once he got what he needed he walked out the intel room. Engineer was slowly walking through the hallway, aiming down the hallway where he is hearing noises. He doesn't hear any shooting, which worries him even more. He reaches the room where he last saw the Overwatch agents and peeks around the corner to see that the enemy soldiers have his new friends pinned down. They were tied up and were against a wall, 6 soldiers guarding them. Engineer takes off his gloved hand to reveal his gunslinger, thinking that he might be able to get close enough to knock one of them out. He waits for the right moment before striking.
Engineer: YEEEHAWW!
Engineer releases his battle cry as he successfully connects his metal fist to the Talon soldier's jaw causing him to lose some teeth before blacking out, then Engineer quickly took out his shotgun and shoots 2 of the soldiers, this caught the Overwatch agent's attention as well as the other soldiers and charged at the mechanic. Engineer shot the first one down but was quickly taken into close combat as one of the soldiers tackled him down. Engineer kicked him off and got up before punching the soldier in the gut causing him to bend down in pain then the Engineer brought his knee to the soldiers face knocking him out. The third soldier threw his fist at the Engineer, Engineer used his gunslinger to punch the soldier's fist to block it, causing the Talon soldier to grab his now broken hand in pain, Engineer then did a round house punch to the soldier's face knocking him out instantly. Engineer turned around to look at the Overwatch agents to see they are now looking down in despair, Engineer was confused in why they are.
Engineer: Hey are you guys alright?
Tracer: We are sorry Engie…
Before Engineer could question her, he heard a clapping behind him as well as a dark laughter. He turned around quickly to see death himself clapping as he stepped out of the dark mist.
Reaper: So you are the guy that made Widowmaker fail her mission to kill Tracer? I am surprised.
Engineer picked up his shotgun before aiming it at Reaper.
Widowmaker: You would not want to pull the trigger, Ouvrier.
Engineer heard Widowmaker as she landed next to Reaper. Engineer glared daggers into her as he remembered that she almost killed him, she only gave him a smirk as she remembered their encounter with each other.
Reaper: There is no need to aim your weapon at me, you don't see me making any moves for mine.
Reaper said as he raised his hands, his dual weapons hanging from his waist.
Reaper: What I want to do is talk to you.
Engineer: Cut to the chase already I don't have all night.
Reaper: Alright so how about we make a deal?
The Overwatch members looked at Engineer intensely as he waited to hear the deal.
Reaper: You want to go back right to your original time right? And we have been working on a machine that could help you.
Engineer: How did you know that im not from around here?
Reaper: I have my ways of getting to know people. Now the machine is not working unless you can fix it.
Engineer: Go on…
Reaper: If you join us, help fix the machine, you could go back home. But if you don't, you can die with them I guess…your choice.
Reaper said as a helicopter appeared above them, the helicopter let three ropes drop down. Reaper and Widowmaker grabbed on to it but waited for Engineer to make his decision, the Overwatch agents waited as well. Engineer was thinking about this really hard, he really wanted to go back home but he doesn't know if he could trust Talon and his agents, sure he was already working on his TTPB but it will take very long before he could make it work again. He took a step forward but then looked back to the Overwatch agents, their face was in pure shock, disbelief, betrayal, and anger. He thought of all they have done for him and compared it to what Talon's agents had done for him, and all Talon's agents had done for him is almost killing him, but the Overwatch agents saved his life. Engineer then took many step backs until he was sure the Overwatch agents were right behind him.
Engineer: Nah! Im good, I think ill take my chances with these guys.
Reaper: Oh…so unwise.
And with that Reaper and Widowmaker were lifted up to the helicopter and it flew away.
Tracer: You…you stayed with us.
Winston: When you possibly had the chance to actually go back to your time.
Engineer: As much as it was tempting, but im already working on my machine. Plus I owe you guys, you did save my life.
Engineer then heard something soaring in the air, looking up he sees a missile flying straight towards the base.
Soldier: 76: That must be their farewell gift.
Tracer: Engie you need to get out of here, there nothing you can do here, it would take too long to get us out of these restrains.
The rest of the Overwatch agents nodded in agreement, waiting for the Engineer to leave. But he didn't, he just gave them a plain stare before looking back up to the missile flying towards them. As the missile flew closer to them, Engineer took out the half eaten ration bar from his pocket and took a bite out of it, while he was eating it casually the Overwatch members looked at him like he was insane.
Engineer: Have you guys ever taste an overcooked steak?
Symmetra: He has lost his mind.
Mercy: Why the hell would you even ask that question right now?
Reinhardt: I have once, wasn't a pleasant taste.
Engineer: Im gunna be honest with you, id rather eat an overcooked steak than this ration bar but Im literally that hungry.
Winston: YOU ARE GUNNA DIE IF YOU DON'T LEAVE!
Engineer did not seem to be affected by Winston screaming at him as he finished off the ration bar and transformed his gunslinger to the good old Short Circuit.
Engineer: Nope, dying is not on my list today.
The missile was very close at this point, the Overwatch members braced themselves as the Texan aimed at the missile with his Short Circuit. They closed their eyes tightly as the heard the missile just a few feet away, but then they heard a little zapping noise before hearing silence. They opened their eyes before seeing Engineer sitting on some sort of a metal chair with an umbrella above his head and next to him was 8 bottles of beer and he was currently drinking one of them.
Engineer: Oh good your up, I thought you fainted of something.
All of the Overwatch members mouths dropped open, completely astonished by how they are still alive.
Tracer: But-
Winston: How-
Symmetra: When-
Mercy: Where-
Soldier: 76: What-
Reinhardt: Drinks?
Engineer: Woah hey one at a time please.
Pharah: Where did the missile go? It was just about to kill us!
Engineer waved his Short Circuit around before it transformed back into a metal hand.
Engineer: Hehe, I told you im a miracle worker. Now lets get ya out of those restraints shall we?
While Engineer was helping Winston out of his restraints so he could help, everyone else was being healed by Engie's dispencer. After everyone finally was freed from their restraints, they thanked the Engineer right away, except for Soldier: 76, as he waited until everyone left. When the Engineer and him were alone Soldier: 76 was the first to speak.
Soldier: 76: You did good Engie, not only did you help us out but you have earned my trust, no hard feeling about that warning I gave you right?
Engineer: *chuckles* Of course not.
Soldier: 76: Good, well we should get some rest tomorrow cause I doubt that's the last we would see them.
And with that they went to their own rooms, Engineer managed to find his room without getting lost, took off his shirt, shoes, goggles and hat and went to bed. He sighed as he thought of something.
Engineer: Whew, what a day…I usually never received so much action in one day back at home, as I usually let my sentry do the work. I wonder how my team is doing without me.
With that last thought, he finally let sleepiness take over.
To be continued…
