Overwatch Spanking Chronicles

By Lonewolf86 (AOTK)

Chapter 7: The Great Escape

"Hold on folks, more information is coming in." There was a long pause as the TV reporter listened to what someone was telling him through his ear piece.

Mei stumbled down the hall from her bedroom still wearing her light blue pajamas with large snowflakes printed on them.

"What's going on?" Mei asked, her voice full of concern as she noticed the tension in the room.

"HSI is fighting in Cairo, we think it might be Fareeha's unit. The reporter says there was a high ranking officer captured too." Lena quickly replied.

"OH, NO! Has anyone heard from Fareeha recently?" Mei inquired, shocked about the terrible news.

"She hasn't responded to any of my texts for almost a week. This is probably why." Lena replied gloomily as she thumbed through her last messages from Fareeha. Her last text to her reading "Stay safe out there."

"Just a refresher to those just tuning in, yesterday evening, HSI launched a full out assault to aid the Egyptian army take back Cairo from the invading Null Sector Omnic forces that invaded nearly a week ago. Their main approach was met with heavy anti aircraft emplacements that would destroy anyone caught in their airspace. Several of these Null Sector sites have been destroyed but there have been casualties and many injuries since our initial report. There are also many troops that have been listed as missing in action. Among the MIA, Captain Fareeha Amari and her squad." The TV displayed a picture of Fareeha in her Raptora suit painted in the shades of brown HSI officers used before the image flickered away back to the reporter.

"We must inform you that if you have any children in the room that you send them away. The following scenes are quite graphic and viewers may find them disturbing." The reporter warned pausing for a moment.

"Hana, you should probably leave the room." Isabel teased, she was less concerned for Fareeha's welfare than the others. She knew Fareeha to be a strong woman who could take care of herself.

"For the last time! I am NOT a chi-" Hana was left speechless as the TV showed shaky cellphone footage of HSI battling Null Sector on the streets below. Dead civilians were strewn across the streets, victims to the Null Sectors indiscriminate weapons fire. Some HSI troops were pulling fallen comrades to safety as heavy weapons fire was exchanged between the combatants.

"Mon Dieu!" Even Amelie was taken back after seeing the footage. Assassinations were one thing, but this was something different entirely. Seeing the lifeless expressions on the fallen civilians struck a chord.

"Everyone be quiet! I can't hear the TV!" Angela shouted as she turned the volume up to drown out the girls. Everyone lowered their voices, their eyes were glued to the TV screen in anticipation of more grim news.

"We are receiving unconfirmed reports that Null Sector is targeting the Temple of Anubis to capture the God program contained within. The Egyptian forces alongside HSI are being pushed back to the Temple's entrance as the unrelenting waves of Null Sector omnics advance upon them." The reporter went on about what the significance of the God program and why it needed to remain contained inside the Temple of Anubis. "Looks like we have new footage from the war zone coming in, keep in mind folks, this is raw footage and viewer discretion is required."

The TV switched from the reporter to more shaky cellphone footage. This time it was from mid way up in an apartment building window. The young man holding the camera was speaking inaudible Egyptian as weapons fire drowned out his voice. The cellphone panned from left to right showing smoke billowing from apartment fires, scrapped omnics, and wrecked tanks on the streets. The anti aircraft guns were firing continuously into the sky upon any air support trying to enter area. The AA guns seemed to be tracking a very nimble Raptora pilot as he maneuvered erratically to avoid being shot down. The pilot quickly disappeared from the screen as a huge explosion erupted off screen causing the amateur reporter's apartment to shake violently. The phone fell to the floor and the room filled with dust and smoke. A hand briefly covered the camera lens as the phone was picked up and pointed out the window to the right. The thick smoke and dust obscured much of the footage until it began to settle and the wind shifted revealing some movement on the ground. A behemoth of a man was dragging a Raptora pilot by their ankle while another was draped over his shoulder. Another figure hobbled along side the large figure until they disappeared from the reporters line of sight. The video returned to the reporter.

"This video is the most recent footage coming in from Cairo. It appears that two Raptora pilots may have been rescued from that explosion by a couple civilians." The reporter said optimistically. "We will continue to keep you up to date as this terrible situation unfolds, we will be right back after a short break."

"I hope those pilots are okay, whoever they are." Hana said in a sullen tone.

Isabel brought up the video feed onto a display directly in front of her. She quickly manipulated the holo video in front of her, purple rays of light were emitted from her fingertips as she was enlarging and refocusing the image on the Raptora pilots.

"The one being dragged is Fareeha! I'm sure of it." Isabel announced to the group as she danced her fingers about to zoom in on the pilot.

"Are you sure it's her?" Angela asked, unsure if it was indeed Fareeha or not. "It's pretty hard to make out any identification marks."

"I'm positive. Look at the colors of her suit, they are the officer's colors, slightly different than the other Raptora suit." Isabel pointed at the two Raptora pilots.

"I'm not sure who the other pilot is though. And those "civilians" are not good Samaritans." Isabel continued before she changed the holo video to bring up images of Mako Rutledge and Jamison Fawkes. "See the resemblance? Roadhog and Junkrat, as they prefer to be called, are known members of the Australian Liberation Front. A well known anti omnic rebel faction."

"Those two were responsible for that crime spree stealing valuable artifacts from all over the world including the royal jewels from King's Row." Lena said, voice full of disdain.

"Those two are responsible for a lot more than that." Isabel replied. "They are ruthless mercenaries who aren't afraid of killing anyone in their way."

"Those two are going to ransom the pilots to the highest bidder." Amelie paused for a moment to take a sip of her coffee. "We all know who has the deepest pockets..."

"Talon." Angela sighed with a heavy heart.

"We have to DO something about it!" Lena shouted, eager to do anything to help her captured friend.

"We don't even know where in Cairo they are." Hana chimed in.

"I can find out the general area to start our search based off the videos." Isabel quickly stood up up from the table and made her way to her room upstairs.

Once in her room she danced her fingers in a fury, causing multiple holo displays to appear around her. She used the video from the news feed and a virtual map of Cairo to compare the buildings and landscape to the rest of Cairo to find a match. After she established a general area to search she began hacking security camera feeds from the area to try to track the mercs carrying her friend. Unfortunately for Isabel, many of the security camera feeds were useless due to either being damaged by the fighting or being obscured by the smoking buildings.

Isabel sighed, "This is going to take longer than I thought." Isabel interlaced her fingers away from herself and cracked her knuckles. "No time to lose, Fareeha needs our help."

With renewed determination, Isabel worked her magic and brought more holo displays in front of her each searching various camera systems for any clue as to where Roadhog was taking Fareeha. Her search yielded mixed results. She was able to follow Roadhog's trail to an industrial sector of Cairo but could not follow any further as every camera in a couple square kilometer area was blacked out due to various power outages.

"Damn it! If only I had access to the satellite feeds over the area this would be so much easier." With a simple wave of her hand, the room went dark as all the holo displays disappeared. "Time to tell the girls the news."

Isabel made her way downstairs after spending a few hours in her room trying to track Fareeha and setting up an alert system. It would notify her if it found anyone matching her description making her way into the news feed or any other media sources. As Isabel reached the bottom of the stairs, she noticed the girls moved into the living room and were discussing possible ways to rescue Fareeha while keeping an eye on the television for any new reports coming out of Cairo. Angela was the first to notice Isabel approach the living room.

Angela perked up and asked with a hint of hope in her voice, "Did you find out where Fareeha is being held?"

"Not exactly..." Isabel paused for a moment, she knew the results were less than ideal. "I've narrowed it down to a couple square kilometers."

"Talk about a needle in a haystack!" Lena shouted, clearly unhappy with Isabel's results.

"Hey! At least we have a haystack to work with now!" Isabel snapped back at Lena. "I don't have a lot to work with since a lot of the cameras in the area have been destroyed and parts of the city are without power."

"Lena, I'm sure she is doing the best she can." Angela replied defending Isabel.

"Well, maybe her best isn't good enough!" Lena retorted as she crossed her arms tight to her body.

"Lena, Tais-toi! Isabel is being more productive than you with your pouting!" Amelie scolded.

"I'm not pouting! We need to come up with a plan to save Fareeha instead of sitting on our asses." Lena replied angrily.

"Sometimes waiting until we have more intel is the best course of action." Angela explained to Lena. "I know it is difficult for you, but we need to be patient. I am meeting with Jack in a couple hours to discuss our options."

"We are meeting Jack you mean." Isabel asserted. "You will need my findings brought to the briefing."

"I'm coming too then!" Lena insisted.

"They don't need an annoyance at the briefing." Amelie interjected.

"Get stuffed!" Lena countered.

"Enough!" Angela shouted angrily. "Lena, watch your attitude!"

"But she-" Lena was abruptly interrupted.

"I don't care." Angela said sternly. "Unless you want a trip over my knee, you better change your tune. Oh, and while we are on the subject of spankings." Angela turned her attention to Hana who was surprisingly quiet. "Jack wanted me to remind you that your rent is still due and you will be very sorry if you miss it again."

Hana eyes widened as she gasped. "Oh, shit!"

She quickly got up from her corner of the couch and sprinted down the hall to her bedroom to get dressed. Isabel smirked and shook her head at Hana.

"Watch your mouth!" Angela shouted to Hana.

"Sorry!" Hana replied as she slid to a stop at the doorway to her room.

"Lena, I want you to go to the bank with Hana, try to take your mind off this situation for a little while."

"But-" Lena objected, but was cut off before she could continue.

"No buts. There is nothing you can do to help right now. When the time comes, you will be among the first to know." Angela reassured Lena who was not happy with being benched.

Lena pointed towards Hana's room, refusing to back down. "Hana can go to the bank by herself, she doesn't need a babysitter!"

"This isn't about her needing a babysitter! This is about you getting out of the house and clearing your head. You aren't being objective right now."

"Fine, I'll go, but don't think I am happy about it." Lena finally caved to Angela's demands.

Hana searched her room high and low for some clean clothes but couldn't find any. She emerged from her room several minutes later and returned to the living room with a frustrated look about her.

"Umm, Lena? Could you lend me some clothes please?" Hana asked meekly.

"So long as you promise that they don't end up in your laundry mountain in your bedroom." Lena knew even if she made Hana promise, her clothes would still likely make it to her heap of laundry.

"Yeah, I promise." Hana smiled before Lena disappeared down the stairs to her room to find something for Hana to wear. The pair would on occasion share each others clothes since they wore the same size of clothing.

"Hmmm, what do I want to sacrifice to the great laundry pile?" Lena grumbled as she opened her closet. "Oh that will do quite nicely." Lena grabbed her old school uniform and brought it up to Hana.

"Thanks, Lena." Hana turned and stopped dead in her tracks after seeing what Lena handed her, she turned and faced Lena again. "I don't suppose I could borrow some yoga pants and a t-shirt instead could I?... Please?"

"Sorry love, but beggars can't be choosers." Lena smirked at Hana's disappointed expression.

"Aww." Hana pouted as she made her way back to her room to put on the school uniform.

Hana emerged from her room dressed in Lena's school uniform and sighed heavily after seeing Lena had gotten dressed wearing black yoga pants and a solid purple top. Lena smiled at Hana, she looked pretty cute in the red plaid skirt, white t-shirt and tie. Hana and Lena put their shoes on and exited the house out the front door and headed in the direction of the bank.

"I can't believe you are making me wear this." Hana said in an annoyed tone.

"You can always do your laundry and wear whatever you want instead." Lena countered. "You should be happy that I lent you some of my clothes in the first place."

"I know, but it had to be a skirt? You know how I feel about skirts." Hana complained.

"You never seem to complain the other times that I lent you my skirts." Lena prodded Hana, she knew the real reason Hana didn't want to wear the skirt but she wanted her to admit it.

"You know I don't like wearing them after I have been spanked." Hana whispered. She was always self conscious in a skirt after she was spanked and didn't want anyone to notice her red bottom. She had a reputation to uphold after all.

"Don't worry, no one will notice it." Lena gave Hana a playful smack on her tender bottom before she started to run down the sidewalk.

"Owww!" Hana squeaked. "That hurt!" Hana shouted as she chased after Lena who just just laughed it off. Hana didn't realize that as she ran after Lena, her skirt would lift up enough to flash anyone her reddened behind.

"Oh relax, I didn't smack ya that hard." Lena taunted. "Go get your money so we can head home."

Hana moved to the banking machine and proceeded to withdraw her rent money. Lena crouched down to retie her shoelaces. She looked up and noticed Hana's rather red bottom peeking out from her panties and Lena couldn't help herself and started to giggle. Hana turned around and caught Lena staring up her skirt at her ass.

"Lena!" Hana screamed, she was upset at Lena's indiscretion. She quickly finished her transaction on the machine and stormed off ahead of Lena. It felt like she was betrayed by her friend.

"I'm sorry Hana." Lena tried to apologize but Hana ignored her and continued marching off down the sidewalk.

"Come on Hana, I'm sorry! No one else saw, what's the big deal?" Lena tried again to apologize to Hana.

"Hmmph." Was the only response that Hana was willing to give. Lena trailed Hana at a distance but had to maintain a speed walk. Hana approached a little girl drawing pictures on the sidewalk with some chalk. Her mother supervised her from the shade of a tree a short distance away.

As Hana walked past the little girl, the daughter asked her mother, "Mommy, why does she have a red bottom?"

Hana's face went red with embarrassment and she put her hands tight against her skirt, hiding her butt.

"It's probably because she was a naughty little girl and got a spanking. If you don't behave, your butt could look like hers too." The mother replied. Hana was mortified and ran full speed down the sidewalk towards the house, tears filled her eyes as she ran.

"Oh jeeze." Lena thought to herself, her situation just got dramatically worse with Hana. Lena sped up and tried to apologize to Hana again but Hana was too upset to respond. Both girls arrived back at the house after Angela and Isabel had left to meet with Jack. Mei was sitting on one couch and Amelie sitting on another, both girls watching the TV, keeping up to date with the news in Cairo. They both turned their attention to Hana running to her bedroom and slamming the door behind her. Lena raced up to her door and banged on the door.

"Hana! I'm sorry! Can we talk about this?" Lena pleaded.

"Go away!" Hana shouted angrily, tears stained her face as she dove onto her bed and buried her face into a pillow to cry.

"What did you do to Hana?" Mei asked.

"I … um . . . may have publicly embarrassed Hana." Lena felt a knot in her stomach, she felt terrible for what she had done.

"She is probably just overreacting. Leave her alone. You will only make things worse if you keep pestering her." Amelie advised. Lena took her advise and went to her own bedroom to figure out how to make it up to Hana.

After Hana had some time to calm down, she thought of how Lena should be made to pay for her 'crimes' against her. She imagined having Lena over her own lap and how she would spank her butt a nice cherry red with her hair brush until she was kicking her legs and trying to wriggle off her lap. And to top it off, she would make her go outside in a skirt that was hiked up so that all could see that she was spanked. Lena would have to stay outside until she had learned her lesson. This scenario would likely never happen as Lena would refuse to go over Hana's knee for a spanking. Hana would have to settle for it being in her dreams for now.

Angela and Isabel drove up to the front gate of the military base and were stopped by a pair of soldiers.

"ID's please." The one sentry demanded while the other sentry kept a vigilant eye on the duo. Angela flashed her security badge and passed the soldier Isabel's ID. The soldier stepped inside his security hut and came back out a minute later. He handed Isabel her visitors pass and allowed the duo to proceed. "Strike Commander Morrison is waiting for you at the entrance of the HQ building, please do not tarry."

Angela parked her car and the two climbed the steps to the entrance of HQ building and met up with Jack.

"Ladies, if you will follow me to the briefing room, we have much to discuss." Jack turned and led the women down various long corridors until they got to the command room. Everyone in the building seemed to be working away in their offices as they didn't see a single soul on their trek to the command room. Jack opened the door and gestured for the women to go inside ahead of him. There was only one occupant in the large room and it was a Sergeant assigned to be his aide. She stood up from her chair and saluted Jack as he entered before he told her "As you were," and she sat back down in her chair. She was an attractive young woman in her mid thirties with a slender build. Her long brown hair was tied into a neat bun beneath her hat. Her bright blue eyes scanned the computer screen in front of her as she typed various commands into her terminal. The trio moved to the large holo table taking up a large portion of the center of the room. Various terminals were along the walls to the windowless room but only the terminal with the Sergeant was occupied.

Jack turned to face Angela and Isabel. "We have a lot of planning ahead of us to bring Captain Amari and Lieutenant Kessler home, so we better get started."

Isabel presented her earlier findings to Jack to bring him up to speed on Fareeha and Rayna's situation. Angela and Jack began planning amongst themselves about how to proceed with Isabel's information and tried to formulate a plan. Isabel interrupted Jack and Angela's conversation when one of her notification feeds activated. She gestured with her right hand and brought up a holo display in front of her. "Guys! You need to see this."

Isabel expanded the screen large enough that everyone could see it clearly. The video showed Junkrat and Roadhog bragging about capturing Lieutenant Rayna Kessler and Captain Fareeha Amari. The video cut to the pair shackled to the wall of their cell. The video wasn't very good quality, but they could tell that it was indeed Fareeha and that the duo were battered but still alive. They went on to say that the pair were up for auction and the starting bid was a quarter million dollars and that bidding would conclude that evening. At the same time the video was playing, Isabel frantically typed commands into another holo screen to find out where the feed originated from.

"Trace that signal!" Jack ordered.

"Already on it!" Isabel barked back while maintaining her concentration on the time sensitive task of following the signal to its source. Her eyes darted left and right absorbing all the new information being fed to her as she rapidly input new commands. The holo display showed the signal being traced from a map of the world and as she got closer to the source it would zoom in further and further. The signal bounced off various servers around the world before the screen zoomed in on Africa, Egypt, Cairo, then just a second before the video ended, a compound just outside the industrial sector.

"GOT IT!" Isabel shouted. She took in a deep breath and exhaled a sigh of relief. "Phew, that was close."

"Where are they being held?" Jack asked impatiently.

Isabel brought up a map of Cairo on the tactical holo table at the center of the room where she pointed to a location on the map. "They are being held in a compound on the Eastern edge of the industrial sector... here."

Jack ordered a subordinate, "Get me the satellite feed for that area, I want to see what they have for defenses."

"Yes, sir!" The young Sergeant in urban camo fatigues typed frantically at her terminal, after a couple minutes the tactical holo table displayed a zoomed in satellite image of the compound. "Sir, this image is from yesterday. There isn't a geosynchronous satellite pointed in that region so we have to wait for another satellite to pass over the area again."

"How long will that be?" Jack asked, he sounded irritated by the delay.

The Sergeant paused her typing briefly, "In about twenty minutes or so."

"Jack, is Overwatch going to buy Fareeha and Lieutenant Kessler their freedom?" Angela asked, she already knew what the answer was going to be but she had to ask anyway.

"Officially, Overwatch won't place a bid on the women since neither of them are members of Overwatch. But unofficially, we are going to do whatever it takes to get these two home safe and sound. We owe it to them and to Ana." Jack reassured Angela before turning his attention to the Sergeant.

"Display the new imagery when it is available Sergeant. In the mean time, pull up all available blueprints for that compound. Maybe we can make an educated guess as to where the captives are being held within." Jack instructed his Sergeant.

"Yes, sir." She replied calmly as she began pulling up the blueprints from the Egyptian architectural archives.

"Speaking of Ana, where is she?" Angela questioned.

"We haven't been able to contact her for a few days now. Communications in Cairo are a mess. We assume she is helping the Egyptian forces fight Null Sector there but we can't be sure." Jack replied. "She hasn't been involved with any of the goings on with Overwatch in quite some time now."

While the Sergeant was accessing the blueprint information, Isabel decided to do some research on Rayna Kessler. She pulled up a holo screen in front of her and accessed her military record as well as her social media and any other files she could find.

"This Lieutenant Kessler has an impressive military background. She was a decorated Israeli Defense Force officer before being recruited into Helix Security. She is pretty cute too, I can see why Fareeha chose her as her Lieutenant...and lover." Isabel paused and giggled. "Here is some rather fun footage of her and Fareeha together." Her holo focused on a video of the duo engaged in some intimate activities.

"Isabel, now is not the time for that!" Angela scolded, unimpressed with her behavior.

Isabel smirked, trying to play innocent, "What? I just want to know about who we are rescuing."

"There are more pressing matters to worry about than their love lives." Angela retorted while crossing her arms across her chest.

"Don't worry, I can multitask." Isabel bit her lower lip while she watched another inappropriate video of Rayna and Fareeha together. "I am monitoring the signal from where they are being held. Now that I know where it came from, I can intercept any new communiques."

Jack moved to the holo table and merged the architectural plans with the satellite imagery to form a highly detailed map of the compound. He studied the map for for a several minutes without uttering a word before he turned to face his Sergeant. "How much longer until the satellite is over the compound?"

The Sergeant turned to face Jack, "One more minute, sir."

Time felt like it was standing still for Jack. He needed the new imagery to determine a plan to save the HSI women.

"Receiving telemetry now, I'm sending it to the holo table as it comes in." The Sergeant promptly overlaid the new data over the map. Close to a dozen soldiers guarded the perimeter and the grounds of the compound and an unknown amount patrolled inside the buildings.

"Hmm, well this complicates things. There are too many of them for a frontal assault and it would only jeopardize Fareeha and Rayna's safety. And we don't know if they are located in the machine shop on the West side of the complex or inside the manor." Jack stroked his chin while he thought of how to proceed.

"Well, judging by the video Junkrat and Roadhog posted, I think the girls are being held in the machine shop. Look at the windows, none of them look like they match those of the manor." Isabel said as she analyzed the video of Rayna and Fareeha again.

"I am inclined to agree Isabel, unfortunately we can't know for sure. They may have moved the girls since then." Angela paused for a moment. "Isabel, now that you know where the signal is coming from, are you able to hack in and see if they have any security cameras, specifically ones watching the girls?"

"I already checked, they have no security cameras linked to that terminal and their security setup is laughable at best." Isabel turned her attention to one of her holo displays and checked in on the auction status of the girls. "Wow, the current bid for the pair is close to a million. Bidding closes pretty soon too."

"Who are the interested parties?" Jack asked.

"We have a slaver group that stopped bidding quite a while ago. Then there is HSI that stopped at half a million. Guess HSI just put in enough bids in to make it appear they cared about getting their soldiers back. And now it is a battle between Talon and an anarchist group that is choosing to remain anonymous. Talon is counter bidding the anarchists without signs of stopping." Isabel's curiosity was piqued, she really wanted to know who this anarchist group was. She began typing her fingers rapidly in the air trying to find any leads on them but her efforts were fruitless. Isabel frowned but refused to let it go.

"You can't hide your identity forever..." Isabel muttered to herself.

"Intercepting a transmission between Junkrat and Talon!" The Sergeant shouted to the trio. "Patching it through to the holo table." Jack, Angela, and Isabel turned their full attention to the video playing on the holo table

"G'day, Mate! Looks like Talon has a new pair of lasses to add to their ranks. You better be careful with these two, they are quite the handful." The camera panned to the girls against the wall with their spanked bottoms with Fareeha's whipping being added to her punishment. "I had to teach 'em how to behave ... civil like."

The holo switched to a figure of someone obscured by shadows and their voice electronically masked. "You better keep our merchandise in one piece or we will have to renegotiate our fee for the two of them."

"We won't harm a hair on their pretty heads." Junkrat smirked and thought, "Can't say the same about their bottoms though, heh heh heh."

"Make sure that you don't! Send us the coordinates for the exchange, we will be there in two days to retrieve our new property."

"Not so fast. We require half the payment as a deposit on them." Roadhog barked as he entered into focus of the camera.

"Very well." The shrouded figure typed some commands into the terminal and transferred the appropriate funds to Junkrat and Roadhog. As soon as Junkrat and Roadhog received the funds they sent the coordinates for the exchange with additional instructions. "See you in two days." The transmission ended abruptly.

"We now have under two days to come up with and execute a rescue operation." Jack said as he pulled up the map of the compound again. He shook his head, he didn't like their time table for the mission.

"That is not a lot of time to work with." Angela said, her sense of hope for the mission was reaching a new low.

"I have an idea but I need to make a call first." Isabel, without permission, made a holo call to Amelie from the holo table.

"Hey what do you think you are-?" Jack tried in vain to stop Isabel from making her call but it was too late as the image changed to Amelie sitting on the couch.

"Hey, Isabel. What's going on?" Amelie smiled as she tucked some of her long black hair behind her right ear.

"Hey chicka! I've got bad news. Talon bought the girls as we all expected them to. And we only have two days to rescue them."

"If they know what's best for themselves, they fight their way out or die before Talon destroys who they are." Amelie expression turned to anger as she clenched her right hand into a tight fist, she had a profound hatred for Talon that none of the others could possibly match.

"Wanna piss off Talon and save Fareeha at the same time?" Isabel knew Amelie wouldn't pass up on an opportunity like this.

Amelie's scowl turned to a sadistic grin. "How is a girl to refuse an opportunity like that?"

"Good, bring Hana and Lena with you, they have their small parts to play too." Isabel instructed Amelie.

"Hey! What about me?" Mei was upset that she didn't have a role to play in Isabel's scheme to rescue the girls.

"Sorry Mei, but my plan doesn't include you or your abilities." Isabel didn't care that Mei felt left out in the slightest.

"But I can..." Mei attempted to say why she should be able to join the mission but was interrupted.

"If I need an environmentalist, I'll give ya a call." Isabel's comments stung Mei causing her to sulk.

"Look at you, becoming quite the puppet master." Amelie replied.

"I thought you liked it when I take charge." Isabel said with a sly smirk.

"Sometimes..." Amelie winked at Isabel before terminating the call.

"Who put you in charge here?" Jack snapped at Isabel after the call ended. "You haven't even told anyone your plan yet and you expect us to just roll with it?"

"Trust me Jack, I'll explain everything when the others get here." Isabel attempted to reassure Jack.

Jack pointed directly at Isabel. "It's Strike Commander to you, Isabel! There is a chain of command that I expect you to follow here."

"Yeah, whatever you say Jack..." Isabel rolled her eyes and then muttered under her breath, "ass."

"We don't need your insubordination here, I think a lesson in discipline is needed here." Jack barked at her before taking a step towards her but was stopped as Angela put her hand on his chest.

"Now is not the time for this, we need to stay focused." Angela said as she tried to calm Jack.

"I will deal with you after this mission, Isabel." Jack threatened Isabel.

"Oooh, so scared." Isabel taunted. She pushed her luck knowing that Angela was there to keep Jack at bay. Isabel pointed to her visitor ID hanging from her neck. "I'm not even Overwatch, your chain of command doesn't affect me!"

"Enough, Isabel. Need I remind you of what happens to disobedient girls?" Angela scolded Isabel, moving to her left side. "We need to work as a team, we can't do that if we are at each others throats."

"Tell us your plan, now!" Jack ordered angrily.

"Fine, no need to get all bent out of shape old man. You'll give yourself an aneurysm." Isabel continued to push Jack's buttons a bit more before she felt the sharp sting of a spank from Angela across her left buttock.

"Owww!" Isabel yelped, her bottom was still sore from her spanking in the shower earlier that morning. "Okay! Okay! I'll behave."

Both Jack and Angela gave her doubtful looks. Isabel now realizing she had pushed her luck too far. If she didn't control herself, she would soon find herself in a world of hurt. Isabel rubbed her left butt cheek as she approached the holo table in the middle of the room. She pulled up the satellite feed and zoomed out slightly on it.

"So here's my plan. We know the girls are somewhere at this site, but we don't know exactly where. And for this plan it doesn't even matter where." Isabel gestured at the compound as she spoke.

"How does it not matter where they are?" Jack asked impatiently.

"Because I am going to walk straight through their front door and collect them." Isabel smirked, she knew she had Jack's attention now.

"Go on..." Jack was more relaxed now that Isabel wasn't vexing him anymore.

"I am going to do the exchange as a member of Talon. Those goons shouldn't know that I am no longer a member. If we time this right, we can scoop up the girls before Talon gets them."

"They are going to expect the other half of payment, none of us have those kind of funds. And what if they realize you aren't Talon?" Jack questioned the details of the plan.

"I am calling in a 'favor' for the funds. There is someone who can't quite refuse my uh...charm." Isabel smirked again, "And I always have an exit strategy, don't worry about that."

"A favor from your Talon days I suspect?" Angela asked, not really wanting to know the answer but got a nod and grin as a response.

"I don't really want to go over all the details without the others though, but that is the gist of the plan." Isabel turned to face Jack, her facial expression turning serious. "I really feel like this is going to be our best option to bring our girls home."

"This plan does seem like it has potential. I guess we can wait until the others get here." Jack decided that it would be better to not push Isabel for more details as it would likely end up in an argument. It would be another twenty minutes before the others came to the briefing which gave Jack, Angela and Isabel some time to take a small break.

Amelie, Lena and Hana were escorted down a long corridor by a pair of soldiers. A pair of troopers were talking in an adjacent hall as the girls approached but quickly toned their chatter down to whispers. Amelie could hear one of them ask the other, "Isn't that the traitor that killed Gerard?" and the other asked "What is she doing here?" She couldn't make out the rest of what they were saying but she knew it was about her by the constant dirty looks she was receiving. Then both soldiers stared in silence as the trio were escorted by. Amelie felt heavyhearted as old wounds were opened once again. They seemed like they would never heal. Amelie let out a deep sigh as the pair of soldiers guided the three of them to the command room. The one soldier gestured for the three ladies to stop and wait while the other knocked on the door. Angela opened the door and stepped outside.

"These women are here to see Strike Commander Morrison." The soldier gestured to the trio standing patiently to his left.

"Thank you Corporal, you may go now. Come on in ladies." Angela said as she beckoned the ladies over. Instead of returning to their previous duties, they stood guard outside the room.

"They don't trust me. I see the looks everyone gave me as we came in here." Amelie told Angela as she entered the room. Angela could see in Amelie's eyes that it bothered her, she masked how she felt fairly well but couldn't hide her true feelings from Angela.

"Don't worry about them." Angela consoled Amelie. "You are not the same person anymore."

Amelie thought to herself, "If only everyone else felt the same way..."

"Heya chikas! Glad you could join the party." Isabel cheered.

"Umm, Mr. Morrison...?" Hana gingerly approached Jack. She handed him an envelope with her right hand. "Here is my rent plus interest as promised."

"Thank you." Jack smiled as he thanked Hana and placed the envelope in his back right pocket. He could sense that she was still nervous around him. "You can relax now Ms. Song."

Hana felt like a weight was lifted from her shoulders and she met his smile with her own.

"Isabel took it upon herself to formulate this plan to rescue Captain Amari and Lieutenant Kessler. So, I shall leave this briefing to her." Jack was still bitter of Isabel's previous attitude.

"If everyone gathers around the holo table, I will go over my genius plan." Isabel turned and gave Jack a sly grin. She glazed over the basic plan and started to give out individual tasks for the mission.

"Hana, you are going to be my driver. It's very important that you disguise yourself and look and act like a member of Talon."

"Ooh! Cosplay!" Hana bounced up and down with excitement, thinking of how to dress the part of a Talon operative.

"Hana, this isn't one of your games." Isabel snapped at Hana. "If you don't act like a soldier or look the part, you will give us away and possibly get us killed."

"I was in the Korean Army!" Hana retorted folding her arms against her chest. "I know how to behave as a soldier."

"That still amazes me, considering how you normally behave." Amelie belittled Hana.

"Stay focused on the task at hand ladies." Jack intervened before the women could escalate their argument.

"Lena, you will be waiting to ambush the Talon transport truck with one of your bombs." Isabel pointed to a location on the map that put the transport a far enough distance away that the explosion from Lena's bomb wouldn't alert the compound's defenses.

"Is this before or after they pick up the girls at the compound?" Lena asked.

"Before. You need to place the bomb without being spotted and you have to place the bomb where it will destroy its back wheels on either side of the truck. This will buy us some time to rescue the girls." Isabel instructed the attentive Lena, who was eager to put her skills to use. "Once you complete your task, meet up with Angela at the extraction zone."

"Got it! I won't let you down." Lena shouted enthusiastically.

"Angela, you get the easiest job, you get to wait at the extraction site and hope there aren't any injuries."

"Waiting is never an easy job, especially when your friends are putting their lives on the line." Angela corrected Isabel who nodded her head a few times, acknowledging her point.

"Amelie, my pretty little spider, you will take up position on this rooftop here. It should provide you with decent cover and line of sight of most of the front of the compound."

"You want me to watch your ass." Amelie smirked, "Tough job, but someone has to do it."

"Exactly." Isabel smiled at Amelie. "Once we have the girls in the truck and are safely away from the compound, get out of there and meet us at the extraction site."

"Do we have a plan B in case something goes wrong?" A concerned Amelie asked. "I like this plan but there is a lot that can go wrong."

Isabel shrugged her shoulders, "Improvise."

Amelie nodded as she looked over the map of the compound and the surrounding area memorizing the layout and where her potential targets would be as well as her escape route to the extraction zone.

"We have a very small window of opportunity here and not a lot of time to prepare. I suggest you ladies get to work." Jack approached Isabel. "This plan has a good chance of success. I sincerely hope that you and the others pull it off without a hitch. I'll get assets in place to deliver and extract you and your team." Jack turned to his Sergeant and began giving her instructions.

The women diligently studied the map and their responsibilities for the mission before making their way out of the command room and returned to the house to try to get some rest before the mission.

The next day around midnight, the ladies returned to the base and made their way to the locker room to gear up for the upcoming mission. Amelie sighed as she donned her old Talon outfit, she didn't want anything to do with the old organization but she needed to look the part. Amelie may not have liked wearing her old outfit but Isabel loved how it accentuated her assets. Amelie lowered her tactical visor and performed a system check on it while looking around the room at the other women. She stopped and stared at Isabel as she was bent over with her legs straight, reaching for her belt of her purple tunic that fell to the bottom of her locker.

"Ouh la la! Friendly target indeed." She thought to herself and just barely looked away as Isabel stood up again, almost catching her staring at Isabel's ass.

Angela put on her Valkyrie suit, with it she would be able to swoop in to the rescue of her allies should the need arise. Lena, a few lockers to the left of Angela, decided her normally vibrant leggings to be toned down to light brown to complement her brown aviators jacket. She then strapped her chronal accelerator onto her chest and back and made sure it was nice and snug. She hated wearing the hefty device, she wished Winston could come up with a pocket sized version or some sort of treatment so that she never needed to wear it again. Hana surprised the others after she turned away from her locker. She wore a form fitting leather jacket, the arms and shoulders were black and the torso a deep red. She buckled up her thigh holster over top of her black leather pants before she pulled her ponytail through a black baseball hat.

"Damn! Hana, you actually look like a bad ass wearing all that." Isabel admitted making Hana smile widely. Hana pulled out some makeup and was about to give herself some red whiskers but Isabel stopped her. "Save the whiskers for another time."

"Aww … okay." Hana replied with slight disappointment, she felt that the whiskers made her feel fierce.

The squad made their way to the VTOL in the hangar and double and triple checked their gear before Strike Commander Morrison made his way to the base of the loading ramp of the VTOL.

"Ladies, I've made arrangements for a ground transport to be waiting for you upon your arrival in Cairo. Don't take any unnecessary risks and bring our girls home in one piece. Let's show Talon that we don't buy others their freedom but fight for it!" Jack's speech gave the women a small morale boost then Jack banged on the side of the aircraft signaling the pilot to begin his takeoff sequence.

Jack turned away from the women and disappeared from their sight as the back of the VTOL sealed shut. The girls strapped themselves into their seats as the aircraft's engines roared to life. Moments later it propelled itself skyward and their journey to Cairo would begin. The women would remain quiet for the majority of the flight until they were about half an hour away from their target destination. They would then go over their battle plan and perform a weapons check one final time. The VTOL flew low upon entering Egyptian airspace and landed in an isolated area a few kilometers Southeast of the compound. It was still quite dark outside but there was enough light from the stars and moon above for them to see the small enclosed transport truck that was waiting for them. The ladies loaded the truck with a couple cases of supplies before all the women with exception to Angela climbed into the truck. With Hana at its wheel, Isabel shotgun, and Lena and Amelie in the back, they signaled to Angela that they were ready to leave.

Angela approached the driver side of the truck. "Good luck ladies, stay safe out there."

"We will." Hana replied with a slight smile as she started the truck and closed the door.

Hana navigated the war torn streets to Lena's drop off point, stopping just long enough for her to exit the back of the truck. Lena blinked away and got into her ambush position behind a couple wrecked cars. Hana turned the headlights off as she continued driving slowly down the road towards Amelie's drop off point. They didn't want to risk the truck being spotted driving near the compound. Hana stopped the truck and let Amelie out. Amelie closed its rear doors behind her before she fired her grappling hook that carried her to the rooftop of the tall building. Hana then made her way to their next nav point before the meeting with Junkrat and Roadhog. She parked the truck in an alleyway to avoid it being spotted and turned the engine off. She and Isabel would wait until after 9:00am before they could continue any further.

Fareeha and Rayna awoke to the heavy steel door opening and Junkrat hobbling into the room.

"Rise and shine ladies!" Junkrat cheered as he slid them their trays with breakfast on them. "Today is the day that Talon comes and gets ya! They should be here in about an hour or so to pick you up."

The girls looked at one another with horror to the news of what was to come. It was now or never for Rayna to enact her plan that she kept secret from Fareeha. She didn't want her to be punished if she was to fail, so she kept her in the dark.

"Rrrah!" Rayna shouted as she hurled her bowl of food at Junkrat. The bowl and its contents connected directly with Junkrat's face. The gruel dripped down his now angry face.

"Rayna! What are you doing?" Fareeha was shocked at Rayna's attack on Junkrat.

Rayna angrily shushed Fareeha, silencing any further protests from her. Fareeha was confused, what was Rayna planning to accomplish. Fareeha knew Rayna was up to something but didn't know what.

"Looks like we get to teach you one final lesson in manners before you go." Junkrat said bitterly as he wiped the food off his face. "Oh Roadhog, I have need of you."

"Bring it on you peg legged freak!" Rayna taunted.

"I see you are feeling brave this morning, we'll have to change that." Junkrat said as Roadhog entered the room.

Roadhog lumbered towards Rayna after Junkrat pointed at her. Rayna threw her tray at Roadhog's face but he easily blocked it with his right hand and the tray clanged on the floor to his side. He continued to move towards Rayna who scrambled to her feet and assumed a defensive posture. She tried to punch him in the face but he just moved his head slightly to the right and avoided it. She tried to knee him in the stomach but he absorbed the weak attack easily and mocked her with a deep laugh.

"Is that all you got?" Roadhog grabbed her right wrist with his left hand as she attempted another punch to his face. He grabbed her by the throat and pinned her to the wall with his right hand. He released her right arm as he began to unshackle her from the wall. She tried desperately to pull his hand from her throat as she struggled to breathe. It was useless, he was far to strong for her and she ceased her resistance. Rayna fell to the floor and gasped for air as Roadhog released his grip from her throat. He yanked her upwards by the chain connecting to her shackles and pulled her to the center of the room where the hook awaited her. She resisted the best she could but he easily launched her forward with a single tug of the chain. Once Rayna was below the hook, he connected her chain to it and hoisted her up effortlessly.

"Restrain her ankles." Roadhog barked at Junkrat as he held Rayna still. Junkrat did as he was told and ensured her ankles were secured to the anchor below her. Rayna was once again raised into the air until her ankle restraints were tight.

"Remove her clothes, this one deserves a harsher punishment than last time." Junkrat insisted, his demeanor still quite angry.

Roadhog didn't hesitate, he took both hands and ripped open Rayna's sports bra and tossed it to the floor. He then did the same to her shorts and panties revealing her landing strip just above her pussy.

"That's much better." Junkrat said as he looked over the naked beauty before him. Her bottom still bore the bruises of he heavy handed spanking she received a couple days ago.

Junkrat moved to Rayna's left flank and gave her a hard swat across the sit spot of her right buttock. *Smack * Rayna yelped, the spank stung more than what she was expecting, the bruises amplified the pain substantially. Junkrat mirrored his spank on her left butt cheek this time. *Whap * Rayna clenched her teeth and started to second guess her plan. *Smack *

"Yeow!" Rayna cried out as the third smack landed over top of a bruise on her right buttock quickly followed by another sharp smack across the middle of her left butt cheek. Junkrat alternated swats between her buttocks with a consistent pace that quickly turned her bottom pink then red.

"Oww!" Rayna cried out as she tried to endure the spanking on her already battered bottom. Junkrat started to concentrate his spanks on the sit spot of her bottom. He wanted to ensure that she wouldn't be sitting comfortably for a long time. Rayna grimaced in agony, the pain was getting to her and she was struggling to fight back the tears. Junkrat's upward strikes to her bottom caused her butt to bounce and her ample breasts to jiggle about. This time it was Roadhog that got to enjoy the sight of her tits bouncing around. *Smack * *Smack * *Whap *

"Ahh!" Rayna's lower lip quivered and her eyes began to well up.

"Please stop! I'm sorry!" Rayna pleaded, her face had an endured look to it as her ass was throbbing and each new spank added to her misery. Junkrat did not relent, he was just getting started.

"I guess you should have learned your lesson the first time you and your friend attacked me." Junkrat smirked wickedly as he smacked her left buttock with great force. It sent a wave of pain across her butt cheek and made her yelp and begin to cry. Even after she started to cry, Junkrat continued his barrage of spanks, alternating strikes to each buttock. He slowly increased the intensity of his spanks and he knew he was getting his point across when Rayna began to sob uncontrollably. Tears streaked down her face and onto the floor below. Her bottom was completely thrashed as new bruises were added to her already beaten butt.

Junkrat moved in front of the damsel in distress to check the sincerity of her sobbing. He stared up at her face but she wouldn't look at him. Satisfied with his handiwork on her bottom he unbound her ankles. As soon as Rayna felt both her ankles were free she tried kicking Junkrat but she missed.

"Well I guess you don't want to be free from your chains after all. I guess we will have to leave you hanging until you calm down." Junkrat shook his head as he and Roadhog left the room with Rayna still dangling from the hook.

Rayna gave herself some time to regain her normal breathing. Now was the time to enact her plan to escape. She knew the only way that her plan to escape was to get herself spanked again. A painful but needed step. The next part was to make them leave her strung up with her ankles free. She was lucky that they didn't rebind her ankles as it could have prevented her next step and even more lucky that they didn't continue her punishment for her further defiance. She began swinging her body back and forth, building up height to the point she was able to get her feet above her and wrapped in the chain above the hook. She pulled herself up with great difficulty and pulled the chain from out of the hook. Rayna grabbed onto the hook and dropped to the floor. She ran over to Fareeha who was standing and staring in awe at her. She hugged Fareeha as tight as she could. She didn't want to let go of her but there would be time for more sweet embraces later.

Rayna released Fareeha from their hug and put her hands on either side of her face where both girls smiled at each other. "We are getting out of here now." Both girls were emotional and had tears in their eyes.

"Help me with your chain." Rayna let go of Fareeha's face and grabbed onto a part of Fareeha's chain while Fareeha grabbed the opposite side of it. Both girls pulled as hard as they could, hoping to dislodge the anchor, but it was futile. Even their combined strength couldn't pull the bolt from the wall. They heard footsteps approaching the cell door.

"Someone is coming!" Fareeha whispered loudly to Rayna.

"Fuck!" Rayna frantically looked around the room to see if there was anything she could use to free Fareeha in time. Sadly, she saw nothing of use.

"Boost me up." Rayna gestured to the window a few feet above Fareeha. "I'll come back for you. I promise."

"I'll hold you too it." Fareeha nodded as Rayna quickly made her way to the middle of the room to get a running start. Fareeha moved slightly away from the wall to prepare to help Rayna up. The door flung open and Junkrat stood there dumbfounded at how Rayna freed herself. Rayna turned to see Junkrat and made her move. She ran as fast as she could and Fareeha boosted her up to the window. Rayna crashed through it and fell onto the ground below.

"Ooof!" Rayna landed hard on the ground and had the wind knocked out of her. A shard of glass had cut her left thigh open and she had nothing to use to bandage it. She pulled the shard of glass out of her leg and tossed it to the ground. Her leg was bleeding and it hurt like hell but she wouldn't let it stop her from getting out of there.

Junkrat raced over to Fareeha to make sure she was still secure before he ran out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him.

"One of the prisoners has escaped!" Junkrat shouted as loud as he could. "Find her and bring her back alive!" Several guards started to run around the compound in search of Rayna.

Rayna peeked around the corner of the building and spotted several guards in the area. She saw a storage shed about fifty feet away straight ahead of her. If she timed it right, she could run to it without being spotted. She saw her window of opportunity and took it, she ran as fast as she could while favoring her injured leg. Large drops of blood fell from her open wound and stained the ground every couple of feet as she ran towards the shed. She didn't see the soldier coming around the corner but it was too late to alter course. She leapt on top of the soldier that was too confused by seeing a beautiful naked women running at him to raise his weapon at her. They crashed to the ground where they wrestled for control over one another.

"She's over-" The soldier tried to yell out but Rayna managed to wrap her restraints around his neck and choked him out. She unraveled the chain from his neck and tore a long piece of fabric from his pants and tied it around her injured thigh making a makeshift bandage. She couldn't afford to have any other soldier spot his body so she dragged him into the storage shed and into a corner.

"Umm ladies..." Amelie spoke into her radio, "I think I just saw a naked woman pounce on top of a soldier inside the compound."

"Lucky guy." Isabel replied, she wished she had a naked Amelie pouncing on top of her.

"Not so lucky." Amelie responded, "She choked him out and dragged him into the shed."

"Kinky." Isabel replied, provoking a giggle from Hana and a smirk from Amelie.

"Was it Fareeha?" Lena asked, hopeful that she had managed to escape on her own.

"No, it was the other woman, Rayna." Amelie replied while zooming in on the shed waiting for Rayna to emerge.

"Should we move in to help them?" Lena inquired.

"NO! We have to stick to the plan." Isabel ordered. "If they manage to escape before we get there, great. If not, then we do the exchange as planned."

"Fine." Lena replied unhappily, all this waiting around felt like torture to her.

Rayna looked around and spotted a pair of bolt cutters which she promptly used to unlink the chain from her right wrist shackle then the same to the other shackle. She wrapped the chain around her left forearm and fist hoping it would provide a bit of defense against a melee attack and adding a bit of oomph to her punch. Rayna picked up the unconscious soldier's rifle and peeked outside the doorway of the shed. There were soldiers running around everywhere trying to find her. She looked at the wall surrounding the compound, it was too tall to climb over, even if she climbed on top of the shed. The front gate was her only way out and the soldiers doubled their presence at it. Even Roadhog and Junkrat were joining in on the search for her as they were patrolling the main grounds barking out orders to the soldiers. She scanned the area, trying to determine her next move. There weren't a lot of hiding places in the compound as she would have hoped. She noticed a pair of soldiers making their way towards the shed she was hiding in, she had to move before she was spotted. She stealthily maneuvered her way behind the shed and set up an ambush for the two guards. She knew she had to avoid using the rifle or else she would alert everyone to where she was. The soldiers were closing in on her. Thirty feet, twenty feet, ten feet, her heart was racing now.

"Get ready girls!" Lena whispered into her headset. "The transport is coming."

Lena prepared herself to plant her bomb on the transport truck that was quickly approaching. She had to wait until the right moment to blink out and place it or risk being spotted or miss her mark. She wished they had time to rehearse the rescue attempt back at the base but there were too many variables at play to be able to do a suitable recreation. The truck rumbled ten feet past Lena's hiding spot, it was time to act. Lena blinked beside the truck and lobbed the bomb inside the wheel well of the truck and recalled just in time for it to detonate. The bomb blew off the two rear driver side wheels sending them flying into the building to its left and the truck slid to a grinding stop.

"Hana go now! Their truck is immobilized!" Lena shouted into her headset as she blinked as often as her chronal accelerator would allow towards Mercy and the extraction zone.

Hana didn't hesitate, she fired up the truck and made her way towards the compound. They had their minuscule window of opportunity to rescue the girls with Isabel's plan and every second counted.

"Sir, I think we've been hit with an IED!" The driver of the Talon truck shouted to his superiors.

"That was no IED." A deep voice replied. He knew the all too familiar sound of Tracer's bomb.

"Reaper, go check it out. We can't afford any delays." Moira commanded her fellow Talon operative. Reaper exited the truck and inspected the damage. It was as he suspected.

"We need a new ride." Reaper replied while searching for any signs of their attacker and an alternate ride. He spotted an old pickup truck that managed not to get shot up during the omnic attack. Reaper ran over to it and searched for the keys in the usual hiding spots but couldn't find them. He had to resort to hot wiring the truck.

Rayna used the rifle as a club on the first soldier to come around the corner and as the second soldier attempted to call for help she struck him in the throat with the butt of the rifle. He grasped at his throat as he tried to breathe until he finally collapsed.

"She's over there!" A soldier shouted from behind her. She failed to spot him while she was dispatching the pair of soldiers. Several soldiers moved to intercept Rayna. She had no choice but to use her rifle now. She fired a short burst at the soldier, the rounds bore holes in the soldiers chest and he fell limp to the ground. If the other soldiers didn't know where to look, they sure did now. Rayna sprinted back towards the machine shop and sprayed her rifle at the pursuing soldiers. The soldiers returned fire but missed her as she dove behind cover.

"Cease fire!" Roadhog shouted angrily at the incompetent soldiers. He grabbed one of the soldiers that shot at Rayna by his shirt and tossed him to the ground. "We need her alive, not riddled with bullet holes!" He gestured for his men to circle around Rayna's position to prevent her escape.

Rayna rounded the corner to a pair of soldiers with their weapons raised at her. She jumped back around the corner but another small group of soldiers had moved to flank her. She was trapped and had no choice but to surrender. She threw down the rifle and put her hands in the air.

"It's show time." Isabel said to Hana as they pulled up to the main gate of the compound. The guards waved the girls inside the compound and closed the gate behind them. Hana drove the truck around so that the front of the truck was facing the gate for a clean getaway. Isabel and Hana both got out of the truck and noticed Rayna being led over under heavy guard. Junkrat and Roadhog made their way over to meet the duo.

"Did we come at a bad time?" Isabel joked. "We can come back if you need more time to get your affairs in order."

"Ha Ha!" Roadhog gave a deep guttural laugh. "I didn't think Talon was sending us the girl guides to do the exchange."

"Do you have the rest of the money?" Junkrat asked hastily.

"Yeah, but we need to see the other woman first." Isabel replied. Roadhog gestured to a pair of soldiers to go fetch Fareeha. Isabel turned to Hana and instructed her to bring the pair of cases from the back of the truck.

Junkrat turned to Roadhog and whispered to him, "We should capture these ladies too and make even more money." Roadhog smirked under his mask and gestured for his men to encircle the pair of women.

"I don't think that would be a wise decision." Isabel and Hana drew their weapons on Junkrat and Roadhog as they drew on them. "Do you really want to incur the wrath of Talon?"

"You think the two of you can take on all of us?" Roadhog laughed.

"We have a spider with her sights on your friend." Isabel pointed to a red laser dot on Junkrat's chest.

Junkrat looked down to see the dot over his heart then make its way up his body to his forehead.

"Uh, let's not make any hasty decisions here." Junkrat immediately back peddled his way out of their current situation. "Why don't we just stick to our previous arrangement."

Isabel smiled and cocked her head to the side. "Yes, let's." Isabel grabbed one of the cases by Hana and tossed it to Roadhog. "That case has shock collars and shackles, put them on the girls for me."

Roadhog grabbed the case and pulled out a collar and shackles to use on Rayna. She glared angrily at Roadhog as he put the shackles on first then the collar.

"Hey! That one is injured, what happened to her leg?" Isabel demanded an explanation after seeing her leg covered in blood from the thigh down.

"She injured herself escaping." Roadhog asserted as Rayna was fitted with the shackles and collar before being led over to the Hana and Isabel.

Fareeha was being led over to Roadhog to be fitted with the shock devices. She couldn't see Hana nor Isabel as Roadhog obstructed her view until he stepped aside. She didn't recognize Hana but she did recognize Isabel.

"You trai-" Fareeha shouted before she was rudely interrupted by Isabel activating the shock devices. Both Rayna and Fareeha writhed in pain as electricity coursed throughout their bodies, causing them to collapse to the ground. Hana tried not to look away but it was difficult seeing her friend suffer.

"Mind your place! You belong to Talon now." Isabel said as she released the shock button before issuing them a warning. "If one of you misbehaves, you both pay the price, keep that in mind." Seeing this side of Isabel scared Hana but she couldn't afford to have it affect her right now.

Isabel wanted to test their obedience, "Take this case to Roadhog."

Fareeha complied reluctantly and handed the case to Roadhog. He accepted the case and opened it to find the remainder of the funds needed to finalize the exchange.

"I believe this concludes our deal." Isabel smiled as she gestured to Fareeha and Rayna to get into the back of the truck.

"Pleasure doing business with ya!" Junkrat shouted enthusiastically after seeing all the money in the case.

Both shackled women climbed into the back of the truck and Hana strapped them in. Hana whispered very quietly into Fareeha's ear, "We are getting you out of here."

Fareeha finally realized who she was. Fareeha broke down and started sobbing tears of relief, to the others outside the truck, it seemed as if she was finally broken. Rayna didn't know who Hana was or hear what she said and just started crying because it hurt her to see Fareeha cry. Hana exited the back of the truck and closed the doors before proceeding to the driver seat.

"Isabel! You have company coming in fast!" Amelie warned over the radio. "Get out of there, NOW!"

Isabel climbed into the passenger seat of the truck with Hana flooring the gas pedal as soon as the gate opened. The truck leaned to the right as Hana made a hard left turn around the corner and sped down the road away from the compound. Reaper arrived at the gate in an old pickup truck with the back filled with extremely well equipped soldiers and another truck with more behind him. He ordered the other truck to pursue Hana and Isabel's truck while he attempted to get some valuable intel from Roadhog and Junkrat.

Sensing that something was wrong as the pickup truck was charging the front gate, Junkrat and Roadhog decided it best to make a speedy retreat of their own. Junkrat threw an explosive device onto the wall and detonated it leaving a large hole. They ran to their motorcycle with side car and escaped through the gap leaving the soldiers to fend for themselves against Reaper and his troops.

"Reaper is at the compound and he is sending another truck after you guys!" Amelie shouted over the comm channel as she prepared to leave. "I'm on my way to the extraction site."

"Gabe is going to be pissed after he finds out we took the girls from under him." Isabel joked. "Oh, almost forgot." Isabel hit a switch on her remote for Fareeha and Rayna's shock devices causing them to deactivate and fall off. Isabel opened a small slide between the driver and cargo compartments.

"You two better grab some gear. Things are about to get a little messy." Isabel pointed at a couple of weapons crates that were strapped down beside them.

"Roger that!" Fareeha shouted before promptly opening a crate and picking up a rifle.

"Are you alright?" Fareeha asked Rayna as she was bobbing her head back and forth and seemed out of it.

Rayna was about to reach for a rifle out of one of the crates but she collapsed to the floor of the truck. Fareeha tossed her rifle back into the case and rushed to Rayna's side.

"OH No, no, no, no!" Fareeha turned Rayna onto her back and noticed her shallow breathing and her lips were starting to turn a light blue.

"What's going on back there?" Isabel asked, her voice full of concern.

"Rayna is bleeding out!" Fareeha responded as she applied pressure to her wound.

"Hana, we need to get to the extraction site now!" Isabel shouted.

"This thing can't go any faster!" Hana shouted as the Talon truck was gaining on them.

They were almost to the extraction site but they needed more time to fend off their Talon pursuers.

"I have an idea!" Hana shouted to Isabel. "Put your translocator gizmo on the seat behind me and get ready to take the wheel." Hana leaned forward slightly as Isabel did as instructed.

"I'm going to slow the truck down just long enough to bail out and call my mech. I'll cover your escape." Hana unbuckled her seat belt and readied herself. She slowed the truck and bailed out just as Isabel teleported to the driver seat and floored it again.

"Oooff!" Hana squeaked as she tumbled across the sand. She quickly got to her feet and noticed that they would be in weapons range soon. She smirked as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a tube of red lipstick and drew some whiskers onto her cheeks. She took a deep breath and called down her mech that she had painted in Talon colors. As soon as she climbed inside her mech, the Talon forces opened fire on her. She activated her defense matrix to ward off the weapons fire including some guided rockets. She waited until they were a bit closer before launching her counter attack of a volley of micro missiles at the truck. The driver avoided the barrage but crashed into the back of a wrecked car instead, sending the soldiers riding in the back of the truck flying through the air. Hana then set her thrusters to full and chased after her friends in the truck.

"Angela! We have a medical emergency!" Isabel shouted as they approached the VTOL. Angela activated her Valkyrie suit to fly over to the back of the truck and began administering her nanites to Rayna's wound. Isabel and Fareeha lifted her up onto a stretcher and loaded her onto the VTOL where Angela hooked Rayna up for a blood transfusion.

"We can't stay here much longer. Where is Amelie?" Angela asked as she monitored Rayna's vitals.

"She should have been here by now." Isabel replied, she was getting worried about her. "Amelie, what's your status?"

No response came, just static.

"Amelie, where are you?" Isabel's voice wavered.

Fareeha put her right hand on Isabel's left shoulder. "She's a fighter, she would never allow herself to be recaptured by Talon."

"That's what I'm afraid of." Isabel replied dejectedly.

Hana raced her mech up the hill and took a defensive position to guard the VTOL. "Guys, there is another truck incoming!"

The pilot of the VTOL shouted to the girls in the back, "We have to go now, we're sitting ducks here on the ground. We'll do a flyby and see if we can pick her up."

"Hana! Get on the plane!" Isabel shouted, upset that she had to abandon Amelie. "We're leaving."

Hana ejected out of her mech and set it to remotely self destruct after the VTOL was a safe distance away. The pilot of the of the VTOL did a flyby of Amelie's last known position and the route she was supposed to take to get to the extraction zone but there were no signs of her anywhere. The pilot was left with no choice but to abandon the search and fly to the nearest friendly airbase.

"I can't believe we left her there." Isabel hung her head with her hands covering her face.

"We can go back to search for her after we get Rayna to a hospital." Angela tried to console Isabel. "Hopefully by then Talon will be gone from the area." Angela turned her attention to Fareeha.

"How are you feeling Fareeha?" Angela noticed the welts on her back and she could only imagine how her bottom looked under her shorts.

"I've been better. How is Rayna? Will she be okay?" Fareeha was more concerned about her friend than her own well being.

"I've stopped the bleeding and the nanites are doing their job and are healing her nicely. She is going to make a full recovery." Angela smiled at Fareeha. "I can use some nanites on your back too."

"Don't!" Fareeha stopped Angela before she could help her. "It's a reminder of my failure."

"But Fareeha..." Angela looked into Fareeha's sad eyes. Angela backed off. "If that's what you want, I won't force them onto you."

Fareeha sat back into her chair and reflected on all the events that lead up to her rescue and fought back her tears. The remainder of the flight was spent in silence as the girls watched Angela tend to Rayna.

"I'm on my way to the extraction site." Amelie shouted over the comms channel. That's when she felt a sharp sting in the back of her right shoulder. She reached back to see what it was. She pulled a small object from her shoulder and held it in front of her. Her vision began to blur and that's when she realized what it was. " Ah, Merde..."
