Chapter 11: A battle in the future
*Overwatch base*
Tracer was quickly blinking through the hallways of the base to find all the other Overwatch agents. As she went through the halls she stopped by a doorway and saw the agents in the meeting room, looking at hologram map of the city to discuss the possible locations Scout could be hiding. Sighing with relief that she would not need to be hunting them all down, she ran towards them.
Tracer: Guys! I have some news to inform you!
Winston: What is it Lena?
Tracer: It's about Scout and Engie! They are innocent!
What Tracer said caught everyone's attention, especially Soldier 76 who did not like what she said. Symmetra listening to Tracer intently.
Winston: Excuse me?
Soldier 76: What do you mean they are innocent? Both of them attacked us without any remorse, so what makes you think that they are innocent!?
Tracer: Because I talked to Scout! The real Scout!
Soldier 76: What?...
Soldier 76 slowly turned his head towards Winston, as if asking him is she serious. Winston sighed before taking his glasses off and rubbing his eyes.
Winston: Lena…are you telling me you talked to Scout instead of finishing what you were suppose to be doing?
Soldier 76: And what do you mean by you talked to the real Scout?
Tracer: Because the Scout that attacked us wasn't the real Scout, nor wasn't the real Engie. The things that attacked us were robot clones of the real Scout and Engineer!
Symmetra's eyes widened as the thoughts in her mind were starting to make sense, the Engineer that killed her was not the same Engineer that she killed, she killed the real Engineer! She gasped as she realized her mistake.
Soldier 76: Are you serious!? You are believing his lies again!? After what he did to us!?
Winston: 76 does have a point Lena, Scout did take part in killing us, why would you trust him again?
Tracer: Because that wasn't Scout who attacked us! It was a robot clone of him!
Winston: If the Scout who attacked us was a robot clone, how do you know you were talking to the real Scout?
Soldier 76: Wait your believing her?
Winston: Im just asking questions.
Tracer: I remembered the Scout clone attacking us, it had red glowing eyes, the one I talked to didn't have any red glowing eyes, and he didn't shoot at me once! He only ran away, same just like Engie did.
Symmetra: She's right!
Symmetra quickly stood beside Tracer.
Symmetra: We thought the Engineer we killed was the one that killed us, but that was actually the….real Engineer….the one I love….
Symmetra suddenly felt dizzy and short of breath and fell onto her knees at the thought of her killing her innocent lover. Tracer and Mercy came to both of her side to comfort her, while everyone else in the room were contemplating on what to do. Soldier 76 however, was still not moved by this.
Soldier 76: This is madness! Are you guys really gonna trust Scout again! May I have to remind you what he is capable of?!
Tracer: For the last time 76 he is not a traitor! And neither is Engie!
Soldier 76: Engie was a traitor and he is already dead! Forget about him already!
Tracer: He was not a traitor, he was crying over Symmetra's body earlier when YOU were still dead!
Tears began to fall down Symmetra's cheek when Tracer said this, she felt even more guilty.
Soldier 76: Your just making that up because you want your puny boyfriend back in the base!
Tracer then stood up from Symmetra and clenched her fist tightly, staring angrily at 76, but before she could release hell on him, Mercy grabbed Tracer by the hand and talked back to Soldier 76.
Mercy: She is right 76, I saw it myself.
Soldier 76: What?
Mercy: When I came back to revive you guys, I saw Engie crying with Symmetra in his arms. When Tracer and I confronted him with our weapons he did not pull out his, you would think that if he was trying to pull a trick on us he would of attacked us when we were close to him.
Soldier 76: I…but…he…ki-
Mercy: He tried to explain but I didn't let him, I'm starting to wish I did.
Soldier 76 did not know anymore in how to respond, but everyone was now agreeing with Tracer.
Mercy: Wait Engie is still out there! I can still try to help him!
Tracer: Don't bother, Engie is not there.
Symmetra: What?
Tracer: Because they are being forced to work for Talon now, when I was about to kill Scout, he showed me a bracelet on his wrist and then next thing I know, Scout is being electrocuted by it! Then I heard Reaper's voice through the bracelet, yelling at him. He also threatened Engie, so I assume he is alive again at Talon's base.
Winston: It's starting to make sense now! Talon sent those clones of Engineer and Scout to frame them while they take the real Scout back to their base, something must of happened to Engineer out there for him not to come back inside the base, which explains why he came back after the clones killed us.
Symmetra: Then Talon must have took Engineer after we killed him.
Reinhardt: Wait wait hold on sec! You guys are going way too fast, I have no idea what you guys said!
Winston: *sigh* what did you not understand Reinhardt?
Reinhardt: I just need to know one simple thing, is Engie and Scout innocent or not?
Everyone (except for Soldier76): Innocent!
Reinhardt: Well then what are we waiting for! Let's get going!
Winston: We can't just charge in Talon's base, not without a good plan at least. And I think I know just the person who can make a plan.
Winston along with everyone else looked back at 76, who only leaned against the wall with arms crossed.
Soldier 76: What? You guys can make a plan by yourselves.
Tracer: *sigh* look 76 I know you have serious trust issues, but what more proof do you need that they are innocent? Even if we do make a plan we want you to be part of it, we need all the help we can get.
Soldier 76 only grunted in response, Reinhardt had enough of it.
Reinhardt: Enough of the nonsense! You are acting like a child.
Soldier 76: I'm acting like a child!? You-
Reinhardt slammed the bottom of his hammer to the ground making a huge BOOM sound echo throughout the entire base. Soldier 76 was no longer leaning against the wall but was now on the floor, startled by Reinhardt.
Reinhardt: Don't test me Soldier 76, so are you in or am I gonna make a pancake out of you?
Soldier 76 quickly got up from the floor.
Soldier 76: Alright alright! But I can't guarantee it will work.
Soldier 76 and the rest of the agents then went to the table to plan on how to save Engie and Scout.
*Back at Talon's base*
Engie was thrown very hard against the wall, the impact made a little crack noise before Engie slid down to the floor. He groaned in pain before spitting out some blood to the floor and looked back to his machine counterpart that now stood in front of him. Scout was having fun as he was riding the back of his machine counterpart while laughing hysterically (Sorta like the jockey from l4d2) while Scoutbot was screaming.
Scout: Hahahahaha!
Scoutbot: Get it off! Get it off!
The Scoutbot was finally able to grab Scout and threw him to the ground, Scout's laughing ceased and he then released a pained cry.
Scout: Augh!...that didn't hurt!
Scoutbot: Heads up!
Scoutbot then kicked Scout's butt and sent him flying to the wall and land right next to Engie although he landed upside down.
Scout: ow…
The engineerbot released a robotic laugh before picking up Engie by the collar and prepared to knock him out.
Engiebot: Oh yeah one thing I forgot to mention, I enjoyed killing Satya.
Engineer's eyes widened when the bot said this, and then a fire started in his heart, anger began to rise from his chest and suddenly he felt more energy pumped into him. He quickly raised his gunslinger in the air before thrusting it straight at the bot's jaw, knocking it clean off. Engineer landed on his two feet as the bot dropped him and slowly fell to its back, its glowing red eyes flickered off. Scout's eyes widened from the sight, Bell could of sworn she saw fire through Engie's goggles and see some steam going off of him. Before Scoutbot could attack Engie, Bell pressed the button to deactivate it and called for some Talon soldiers.
When the soldier came in they grabbed Engineer and cuffed him, doing the same thing to Scout. Reaper and Widowmaker also came in as the just witnessed what happened, both interested in what Engie is capable of.
Reaper: Bell.
Bell: Yes?
Reaper: How built is your robot?
Bell: Well built sir. To be more specific, it ain't easy to knock the jaw part off.
Widowmaker: Hmm…the laborer possesses more than just a smart brain.
Talon Soldier: Where should we put them sir?
Reaper: Call it a night, put them back in their cell, they've done enough for today.
The soldier nodded before ordering the others, the talon soldiers then began to push Scout and Engineer to the exit of the room. Reaper took the bracelet device off of Scout before he left, but before Engie could exit he stopped at the door and looked at Bell, the Talon soldiers aiming their guns at him in case he makes any moves.
Engineer: How did that abomination know her name?
Bell: It has the ability scan the person it sees and know all the personal information, it must of scanned her.
Engie only growled before proceeding to exit the room, Bell looked right back at Reaper and Widowmaker.
Bell: Perhaps I've made my invention too advanced because…I have no idea how the bot knows her name, it's not suppose to have the ability to scan.
Bell said before walking to its fallen invention, Widowmaker and Reaper looked at each other before shrugging and walking back to doing their own things. Once Engie and Scout were in the cell, the soldiers closed and locked the door, leaving them to stay there for the night. Scout sighed before sitting on the broken bed and rubbing his bruised cheek, while Engie put two hands on the lower part of his back and quickly added full pressure on it, a crack was heard as a bone was put in its right place. Engie release a relief sigh as he felt a little more better and then decided to lean against the wall.
Scout: You alright Engie?
Engineer: Huh? Yeah im fine, just a few bruises here and there.
Scout: That's not what I meant Engie, that stupid robot must of triggered something in ya for you to knock its jaw off.
Engineer sighed before looking back at Scout.
Engineer: It's because of that thing is the reason why Symmetra killed me back at the Overwatch base, she hates me now because of that thing….
Scout then got up from the bed and walked to his best friend's side and sat down next to him. He patted Engie's shoulder before speaking.
Scout: Come on Engie, I know all this looks bad and stuff, but you would always find the good things out of it, surely you still can.
Engineer: Scout, we are stuck here, and if we weren't we would be hunted down by Overwatch, there ain't any good outcomes for this situation.
Engineer put his head down as he lost all hope, Scout however had some good news to tell Engie. Scout quickly got up and ran to the window of the cell and looked out to see if any soldiers were near, he then checked to room for any cameras, seeing none he took the opportunity to tell Engineer.
Scout: Oh yes there is.
Engineer: What?
Scout walked close to Engineer and whispered.
Scout: *whisper* While I was out there, me and Tracer had a talk.
Engineer: What!?
Scout covered Engie's mouth with both hands before continuing.
Scout: *whisper* We talked, well at first she tried to kill me but I managed to get her to listen. When I did I tried telling her that we didn't attack them and that it was the bots but she didn't believe me at first, when I gave her a little more bit of evidence she believed me. And now she and the other agents are coming to help us.
Scout uncovered Engie's mouth after he was done talking, Engineer was in disbelief.
Engineer: *whisper* Honestly Scout you are a life saver sometimes.
Scout chuckled before shrugging.
Scout: Hey what can I say, I make things look easy.
The light bulb that lit up the room suddenly went off, leaving Scout and Engie in the dark.
Scout: I guess that's our signal to get some rest. Wanna take the bed?
Engineer: Nah, I find the floor more comfy.
Scout: Alright I guess the beds all mi-AHH! OOOF!
Since it was so dark in the room Scout was unaware of Engie's foot being in his path, causing him to trip to the floor.
Engineer: Yea watch out for my foot.
Scout: Thanks for the heads up goggles…
Engineer: Hehe please don't make me laugh, my stomach is bruised.
Scout thought of an evil idea when Engie said that.
Scout: Yo hardhat, wanna hear some of my pickup lines I used on Miss Pualing?
Engineer: Scout please.
Scout: Hey are you a sandman? Because you sure stunned me!
Engineer: Hahahahaha! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
*6 hours later*
Scout was snoring as he slept in another weird position, drooling on the pillow soaking it with saliva. Engineer was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed and legs out, his hat covering his face. As they slept Bell opened the door and looked inside to see them still sleeping, she chuckled at the sight and slowly crept towards Engie, before she woke him up she remembered how he would always be startled by her glowing eyes. Bell rubbed her eyes to get rid of the glow and sighed on how she was going to miss the glow. The green glow then faded away and her eyes went back to grass green color. She then started shaking Engie gently to wake him up.
Bell: Come on Dell, time to get up.
She said softly, Engie slowly started to wake up, as he did he put his hat back in its spot and started to open his eyes. When his eyes opened he met a pair of green eyes looking back at him, this woke him up even more when he recognized who's eyes they were.
Engineer: Bell?
Bell: Yep.
Engineer: But your eyes, their back to n-
Bell: Normal? Well yeah of course they are, I just got rid of them so you wouldn't be having a heart attack when I wake you up.
Engineer: Well thanks.
Bell backed away from Engineer and helped him up, she looked back at Scout who was still sleeping. She walked up to him and grabbed him by the shirt and shook him violently.
Bell: Wake up!
Scout: Ah! Alright alright!
She let go of Scout and walked away for Scout to get up, Scout being a little dizzy before getting up.
Bell: Well, looks like you two slept good, which I find that surprising due to how bad you were injured yesterday.
Scout: Yea but I got a question, how the hell are we gonna do our work when we can barely even move without hurting?
Bell: Well that's the reason why I'm here, if you two can follow me, I can take you to the medical room to fix you up.
Engineer: What are you our medic now?
Bell: For today, don't be ungrateful for this Engie, I really can just leave you like you are now if I wanted to.
Engineer: No no, I am grateful.
Bell: Good now let's go.
Scout: Bell your freaking me out without them green glowing eyes of yours, I actually preferred if you kept them.
Bell sighed before exiting the room, Engie and Scout followed. After sometime walking, they reached the medical room. Bell had them sit on the metal table as she got out her version of a medigun, she began to heal Engie first, after a few seconds all of his bruises and pains were gone.
Engineer: Much obliged.
Bell nodded before healing Scout, his bruises disappearing and his broken nose no longer broken.
Scout: Thanks.
Bell then turned around to put her medigun back, as she did she started speaking.
Bell: Just to let you know, my Engie bot is gone.
Engineer: Good riddance.
Engineer mumbled.
Bell: Yep, what you did to it made it completely unrepairable. Because the parts I used for it are kinda rare to get, so I couldn't repair it. But don't feel too confident, the Scout bot alone can take on an army with its speed and strength as an advantage.
Engineer: Your still helping Talon are you?
Scout: Engie don't even bother.
Engineer: Bell do you not acknowledge the fact that your team back at home is in danger if you continue to help them?
Bell: Not now Dell.
Engineer: You don't care about them do you? You only care about your prize don't you?
Bell: Dell, I just healed you up, do not make me regret doing so.
Engineer sighed before shaking his head.
Bell: Now come on, we got a big day ahead of us, the time device is almost done. Scout, Reaper will be waiting for you over there.
Bell began to leave the room, Engie and Scout followed her. After some time walking they reached the room where the time device is being built. As they entered Reaper noticed Engie and Scout were fixed up, and questioned Bell.
Reaper: Is there a reason why you healed them?
Bell: Well how are they gonna work when they are all beaten up? They barely could even walk when I took them to the medical room.
Reaper grunted before crossing his arms.
Reaper: Get to work. And Scout, you will not be going out alone this time, you will be going with Widowmaker this time. But Widowmaker is currently out of the base, so until she comes back wait for instructions.
Scout: pfff, whatever.
Scout said before taking a base ball out and tossing it in the air and then catching it, repeating the process over and over. Engineer and Bell continued to work on the time device, Engineer regretfully doing so, Bell however was having a war in her mind as she worked on the device. Ever since Engie gave her the talk about her caring for her team, she has been not sure what to do, save her team and whatever else in the timeline? Or receiving the reward she always wanted? But even then Engie did ask how would she know if they would actually give her the reward. Bell sighed with frustration, getting attention from Engineer has he gave her a weird look before continuing with the time device.
*3 hours later*
*Overwatch base*
Winston: Is everyone ready for battle?
The Overwatch agents have been planning a strategy to save Engie and Scout throughout the night, when they finished they thought It would be best not to attack when they were tired and decided to attack the next day. All of the agents had just gotten ready for battle and agreed aloud that they were ready.
Symmetra: I just hope they are alright.
Tracer: No worries love, if there is anything I know about those two, is that they are pretty tough to break. Well your man at least, my man well…im pretty sure he won't go down without a fight.
Symmetra: I really hope your right about that Tracer.
Soldier 76: Symmetra, your leaving in 5 minutes, gear up and prepare your teleporters, once you set up the exit teleporter at Talon's base we will be right with you.
Symmetra put her entrance teleporter down before getting ready to leave, grabbing her Photon Projector and heading towards the helipads where a helicopter was waited for her, Tracer going with her to help out. Once Symmetra and Tracer entered the helicopter and took a seat, the helicopter took off and headed towards Talon's base. The Overwatch agents waving at the helicopter as it flew away.
Pilot: Im gonna have to drop you off somewhere near Talon's base, can't be too close to it or otherwise we will be detected.
Tracer: Gotcha.
Symmetra: Understood.
The Pilot nodded before continuing to pilot the helicopter, but as they drew closer to the base Symmetra fidgeted in her seat, Tracer noticing this began to talk to Symmetra.
Tracer: You alright love?
Symmetra: Im just so worried, what will happen when we get there, will Engie be still alive? Will he forgive me for killing him? What if Talon did the same thing to Engie like they did to Widowmaker!? What if-!?
Tracer: Symmetra calm down! Stop jumping to conclusions, Engie will be fine and he probably will forgive you, he will understand since he is a reasonable guy.
Symmetra: I guess your right, I just hope we ain't too late.
*Back at Talon's base*
Engineer and Bell were nearly done making the time device, they have already finished the outer parts of the time teleporter, including the design, they were just finishing off the inner parts machine. Widowmaker and Reaper then entered the room, Reaper looking at the device that was almost finished, he laughed evilly as he knew it was almost time to unleash his plan. He then looked at Scout who was leaning against the wall, Scout doing his best not to fall asleep from boredom.
Reaper: Scout.
Scout looked up and saw Reaper and Widowmaker.
Reaper: Are you ready to leave?
Scout: I guess. *yawns* What took ya so long Widow?
Widowmaker: I was out killing my victims, be thankful your not one of them, faible garcon.
Scout glared at Widowmaker as he knew what she said, as he hears Spy calling him that all the time. He chose not to say anything back as he did not feel like getting beaten up again. Reaper then walked towards Bell and Engie who were still working on the time teleporter.
Reaper: Very impressive work, is it almost done?
Bell: Very sir, just a few things that need to be done here and there.
Bell said, although her mind was still distracted by what decision she should make.
Reaper: Good.
Reaper then looked at Engineer, as he closed a metal panel that was connected to the time teleporter, Engineer looked back at Reaper, they both stared at eachother for bit before each of them turned back to their own business. As Bell finished off the last pieces for the time teleporter, she announced that the time machine was done.
Bell: All done, that wasn't so hard was it Dell?
Bell looked at Engie for a response, but the only response she got was silence and a glare as Engie shook his head.
Reaper: Very good Bell, Widowmaker, take Scout with you to get more supplies, you two.
Reaper pointed at two soldiers who waited for instructions.
Reaper: Take Engineer back to his cell, he ain't much use to me anymore.
The two soldier nodded and started walking towards Engie until Reaper stopped them, then whispered to them.
Reaper: kill him.
The Talon soldiers grinned before nodding, then grabbing Engineer and hand cuffing him before walking him out the room. Engineer looking back at Bell and Reaper, glaring daggers into their souls. Widowmaker and Scout started heading out the base, walking in the hallways leading to the exit. But as they walked Reaper talked to Widowmaker through her earpiece.
"Put a bullet in his head while you are out there, we don't need them anymore." Reaper said.
Widowmaker smiled evilly as she continued to walk, happy that she has a new victim to kill. As Scout and Widowmaker left, Reaper began to talk to Bell.
Reaper: Shall we get this time teleporter started?
Bell: Well first we need to get it powered up.
Bell then picked up a huge wire and connected it to the time machine, then walking towards the wall to connect it, once she connected it the time teleporter let out a humming sound.
Bell: We need to wait a bit before we could get this machine started up.
Reaper nodded before walking away, but Bell knew for sure that the time teleporter was ready, she was just trying to buy some time for her to make a decision, to help Engie and Scout or get her reward. Bell was feeling more stressed just by thinking about it.
*Outside Talon's base*
Scout and Widowmaker were walking out of the base and were now heading towards the city, but what Scout didn't know was that Widowmaker was planning to kill him. Widowmaker was walking behind Scout so he wouldn't see her aiming at him, her scope aiming at the back of his skull, she smirked as she placed her finger on the trigger. But what Widwomaker did not know was that Tracer and Symmetra were watching her. Tracer's eyes widened as she knew what was about to happen next yet was not gonna let it happen, she quickly blinked her way towards Widowmaker and landed a kick right in the face of Widowmaker, Widowmaker pulled the trigger when Tracer's foot made contact with her head, the bullet missing Scout's head by a centimeter. Scout ducked his head from the sound of a gunshot behind him and quickly turned around to see what was happening, and he was surprised greatly to see Tracer there and Widowmaker on the ground.
Scout: Tracer!
Tracer looked towards him and smile then ran to him for a hug.
Tracer: Scout!
Tracer squeezed Scout tightly, Scout did the same. When they ended their hug Scout backed away but Tracer grabbed him by his collar to bring him in to a kiss, Symmetra smiling at the two but kept an eye on Widowmaker.
Symmetra: Long time since we last met Amelie.
Widowmaker glared at Symmetra for using her dead name, she hated being called that.
Scout and Tracer ended their kiss when Scout realized he almost died because of her. He glared at Widowmaker before taking out his spare metal bat and gripping it tightly, and he started walking towards her.
Scout: I'm gonna beat on your head until I hit tonsils!
Scout then ran to her full speed and brought his bat high in the air, but before he could land a hit Widowmaker, she shot her Venom mine at him. The mine exploded once it hit the floor near him, releasing a poisonous gas, Tracer and Symmetra were lucky enough to hold in their breath, Scout however wasn't so lucky. When Scout inhaled the poisonous gas he started coughing violently, Tracer grabbed Scout and took him out of the gas radius with Symmetra following her, but none of them noticed Widowmaker running away. When they were out of the gas Tracer and Symmetra released their breathes to breath, Tracer holding on to Scout as he continued to cough.
Tracer: Symmetra how long does it take for your teleporter to build!
Symmetra: It should be done by now!
Tracer: Well then where is Mercy!?
Mercy: Right here.
Mercy said as she gently landed behind Symmetra and Tracer.
Tracer: Mercy! Please heal Scout, he breathed in poisonous gas!
Mercy aimed her staff towards Scout and shot her healing beam at Scout, once the healing beam touched Scout's chest he immediately stopped coughing and started breathing heavily.
Symmetra: Where are the others?
Mercy: Mei and Pharah are right behind me.
As soon as Mercy said this Mei came sliding in as her little robot froze the ground in front of her so she could keep sliding, Pharah landed next to Tracer and Scout to check if they were alright.
Pharah: You two ok?
Tracer: We are fine.
Scout: Where is that blue skinned monster! I'll freaking kill her!
Scout screamed but could barely be heard since he lost his voice from the violent coughing. Tracer and Symmetra looked where they last saw Widowmaker but she was nowhere to be seen.
Tracer: Take it easy Scout, give yourself some time to recover.
Symmetra: Ok so Mei and Pharah are here but what about the others?
Pharah: Soldier 76, Winston and Reinhardt thought it would be best if we broke through two ways, so it would be easy to look for Scout and Engie, but since we found Scout we need to get Engie.
Mercy: They've decided to break in through the other entrance, but im surprised that we haven't heard any gunshots yet, they sh-
Mercy did not finish her sentence due to an explosion and gunfire that could be heard not too far away.
Mercy: Never mind.
Tracer: We should probably get started with our side too, Scout you ready for another go?
Tracer helped Scout up before giving him his Bonk! soda back, Scout grinned before grabbing it from Tracer's hand.
Scout: You bet!
Pharah, Mei, Mercy, Tracer, Symmetra and Scout started running for the entrance, weapons ready. Once they entered the base they began their search for Engie, but being cautious just in case of an enemies nearby.
Tracer: Hmm, I expected more of a welcoming when we get in here.
Pharah: All the soldiers must be heading towards 76, Winston and Reinhardt. We can take this as an opportunity to find Engineer quick.
Tracer: Scout where did you last see Engie?
Scout: The last time I saw Engie was when he was working on this weird big device in a working room, but then I heard that skull mask guy tell some soldiers to put him back in his cell.
Symmetra: Oh my gosh!
Tracer: What is it Symmetra?
Pharah: Wait, a big device?
Symmetra: If Widowmaker was about to kill Scout out there then-
Scout: The skull mask guy secretly ordered the soldiers to kill my hardhat buddy!
Tracer: You mean Reaper?
Scout: It doesn't matter right now we need to find Engie!
Pharah: What big device?
Mei: Now is not the time to be changing subjects Pharah!
Pharah rolled her eyes before releasing a sigh and running after the agents/mercenary as they ran deeper inside the base to find Engineer. Over on the other side of the base Soldier 76 and Winston are taking cover behind Reinhardt's shield, as the Talon soldiers continued to fire upon them.
Reinhardt: 76! Are you ready?
Soldier 76: Ready! Do it!
Reinhardt nodded before putting his shield down and bringing his hammer high in the air before slamming it down to the ground, knocking many off their feet and stunning them, Soldier 76 turned on his Tactical Visor and had all the soldiers targeted then automatically aimed his Pulse rifle at them and ending their lives instantly with one simple pull of the trigger.
Winston: Great job you two! But there are more coming soon, we should try covering more ground to find Engineer.
Soldier 76: Good idea, and hopefully we'll see less of those rookies inside the base, their aim was cringe worthy.
Reinhardt dropped his hammer to the ground and let out a laugh from 76's comment, grabbing his stomach as he was laughing very hard, the laughing came to a stop when he started coughing.
Soldier 76:…are you done yet?
Reinhardt: Yeah*cough*hehe that was a good one 76.
Soldier 76: It wasn't a joke but thanks.
Winston: Gentlemen we really should get going.
Reinhardt: Lead the way Winston we are right behind you.
Reinhardt said as he picked up his hammer, Winston nodded before running deeper inside the base, Soldier 76 and Reinhardt staying close behind him. As the agents/mercenary ran deeper in the base Engineer was still hand cuffed, being held in his cell. When the Overwatch agents attacked, an alarm was set off inside the base, alerting all the Talon soldiers including Reaper that they were being attacked, the Talon soldiers that were guarding Engineer were suppose to kill him, but they decided to leave, leaving one soldier alone to do the job.
The Talon soldier took out a pistol before entering the cell, Engineer looked up from where he sat and saw the soldier with a pistol out, he frowned at the sight as he knew what was coming up. The Talon soldier chuckled before aiming his pistol at Engineer.
Talon soldier: Looks like your no use to Talon anymore.
Engineer: Really? Ah, good night Irene.
Engineer said as he stood up from the bed.
Talon soldier: Don't feel too bad, you weren't any use to us anyway.
Engineer chuckled from the insult and shook his head before speaking.
Engineer: Now here is what is gonna happen in the next 15 seconds, you'll be on your knees as I kick you in the face.
Talon soldier: What?
Engineer ran towards the Talon soldier and ducked his down as the soldier pulled the trigger, the bullet missing him by inches. Engineer charged into the soldiers body using his head and shoulders (since his hands are cuffed behind him), caring the soldier without any hands out through the door and out of the exit, Engie continued to run until he hit the wall, slamming the Talon soldier against the wall. The soldier stunned as he did not expect a man shorter than him to have so much strength, he pushed Engie off of him before trying to get back up, Engie almost fell backwards but maintained balance and charged right back to the Talon soldier, Engie then used his legs and kicked the soldier right between the legs, right in the manhood. The Talon soldier let out a high pitched scream before grabbing his manhood with both hand and falling to his knees. Engineer now looked down at the soldier as he smirked.
Engineer: I told you that was gonna happen.
Talon soldier: you…said…you…were gonna…kick me in…the face.
The Talon soldier squeaked, Engineer frowned.
Engineer: What you calling me a liar?
Engineer than brought his foot up and kicked the soldier in the face, knocking him out. Engineer shook his head while chuckling.
Engineer: Hell that was easy.
Engineer heard a cough to the left of him and turned to the source of the sound, when he did his eyes widened as he saw Symmetra, Mercy, Mei, Tracer, and Scout standing there, their eyes copying his eyes. Scout was the first to blink and walked towards Engie while looking at the unconscious soldier.
Scout: Dang goggles, here we were trying to save you, yet looks like you were saving yourself.
Scout said as he scratched the back of his neck while looking at the soldier. Engineer did not pay attention to Scout as his eyes were stuck on someone else, Symmetra. Symmetra noticed this and blushed as he did not take his eyes off of her. Tracer blinked next to Engie and saw he was still cuffed, frowning she began to look around for the keys, when she couldn't find them she looked back at the unconscious Talon soldier and searched his body, her face lightened up as her hand had found the key and pulled her hand out of the pocket of the pants. Tracer then blinked back towards Engie and held the key up.
Tracer: Let's get those cuffs of ya shall we?
She blinked behind Engie and inserted the key into the lock of the cuffs, she twisted the key and then the cuffs went loose and fell off Engie's hands. Engie looked down at his hands and rubbed them as the cuffs were very tight on it, leaving a ring mark on his wrist. But Engineer then brought his eyes back on Symmetra before walking towards her, Symmetra blushing even more as he got closer.
Symmetra: I-I know what I ha-have done back there at the base.
She stuttered, slowly backing away from Engineer as he continued to close the distance between them.
Symmetra: B-but I thought you betrayed us. I acknowledge what I have done im s-sorry, so sorry.
Engineer was now right in front of her, bringing his hand slowly up to her face. Symmetra's eyes began to fill with tears as she felt even more guilty.
Symmetra: I know that you are angry at me, so just let me have it, go on say it! Scream at me, hit me, do something! Any-!?
Symmetra stopped talking as Engineer's metal hand touched her cheek, Scout, Tracer, Mercy, Pharah, and Mei were starting to worry, mostly Mei covering her eyes as she did not know what was going to happen.
Scout: Engie?
Engie did not respond to his name as his metal finger slid softly against Symmetra's skin until it wiped a tear off that has fallen. Symmetra was surprised by this kind action from Engineer, she thought he was angry at her. Engineer shook his head gently.
Engineer: How could I be mad? At the most beautiful women I have ever seen?
Symmetra couldn't hold it in anymore as she launched herself at him and locked her arms around Engineer's neck, kissing him passionately, Engie kissed back as he wrapped his arms around her, never wanting to let go of her. Scout, Tracer, Mei, Pharah, and Mercy smiled at the sight, glad to know he wasn't angry at her. Soldier 76, Winston and Reinhardt came up from behind them, shocked from the sight. After a minute or so they ended their kiss, but began blushing when they realized they were being watched the whole time, mostly Symmetra who tried to cover her face, Engineer a little bit annoyed that they didn't get any privacy.
Engineer: You guys really must have nothing to do for you to being watching us the entire time.
Soldier 76: Well they were watching, me and Winston and Reinhardt just got here.
Engineer: Mmhmm sure.
Mei: EEEE! That was too cute!
Mei ran towards Symmetra and squeezed her tightly, Symmetra blushing even more as she tried to get untangled from Mei.
Symmetra: Mei please stop.
Tracer blinked next to Symmetra and started singing.
Tracer: Symmetra and Engie sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
Engineer and Symmetra blushed from Tracer's comment.
Engineer: Tracer quit it!
Scout: Well you would be kissing in a tree with her right?
Engineer: Kissing in a tree sounds like something you and Tracer would do.
Scout's smirk disappeared when Engie said that, making his cheeks go red, Tracer just giggled before blinking next to him and gave him a kiss.
Soldier 76: Ok all this kissing is romantic and all but-
Winston: We really should be going, while the Talon soldiers are gone, but to be honest I expected more of them in here, I wonder where they all went.
Soldier 76: Yeah well I'd like to leave before we find out where they all are.
Scout: Alright let's get going then.
Engineer: We can't leave yet Scout.
Scout: uhh why not?
Engineer face palmed before answering his question.
Engineer: Time teleporter, in here, remember?
Scout: Oh…oh! Yeah we need to destroy that thing!
Pharah: Wait is that the big device you were talking about earlier?
Scout: uhhh yea.
Engineer: While we were stuck here they had me and Bell make a time teleporter for them, I don't exactly know why they would need a time teleporter but I could think of one or two reasons.
Symmetra: Who's Bell?
Engineer: You will see her soon enough, right now we need to get going!
Scout: Alright I'll lead the way!
Scout began running down the hallway, being followed by the agents and Engie, but he stopped when he was given two directions to go, left or right. He looked in each direction before looking back at Engie with an embarrassed smile.
Scout: ehh Engie, little help?
Engineer rolled his eyes before going right and leading the way, after a bit they reached the room. They stopped at the door before they could enter.
Engineer: Alright so get ready guys, the time teleporter may be guarded by a few guards including Reaper and Widowmaker.
Reinhardt: Ha! This should be easy then!
Engineer: Ok on the count of 3 we run in there, 1-
Tracer and Scout: 3!
Tracer and Scout entered in the room at the same time, the agents and Engie a little bit surprised before running in aswell, but as they entered they saw a whole wall of Talon soldiers, right in front of the teleporter, their guns aiming at the heroes/mercenaries. Reaper and Bell were standing behind the row of soldiers while Widowmaker was aiming her Widow's kiss at the heroes while not being seen by them.
Reinhardt: Engie you suck at predicting!
Reaper laughed.
Reaper: Did you think it was gonna be that easy?
Engineer: Nope, but I do have some tricks up my sleeve. Mei, ice wall.
Mei put up a huge ice wall in front of them, blocking the many Talon soldiers firing range.
Reaper: Fire!
Talon soldiers pulled their triggers and unleashed many bullets on the frozen wall, breaking the ice wall little by little.
Scout: Uhh Engie your only delaying the inevitable.
Engineer: I know what im doing Scout. 76, you have any grenades on ya?
Soldier 76 nodded before handing it to Engie.
Engineer: Much obliged.
Engineer then stuck the grenades on the ice wall, sticking it easily due to the cold temperature on it.
Engineer: Symmetra may I?
Engineer grabbed her Photon Projector and started shooting its laser beam on the grenade, making the grenade heat up.
Symmetra: Engie what are you doing?
Engineer chuckled before handing the Photon Projector back to her.
Engineer: You'll see. I'd stand back if I were you everyone.
Engineer said before backing up, everyone did the same. The grenade started overheating before exploding the ice wall, huge ice chunks started falling towards the Talon soldiers, crushing some of them, the soldiers broke out of their formation to dodge the ice parts falling. But the explosion also left an icy mist that was covering almost the entire room, hiding the heroes and mercenaries from the Talon soldiers sight, even Widowmaker couldn't see them. Engineer let out a chuckle before crossing his arms and looking at Symmetra.
Engineer: Ok.
Symmetra: Ok what?
Engineer: Now we attack.
Winston: With pleasure.
Winston unleashed his rage as he let out a loud roar, his skin turning red and lightning coming from his eyes, he jumped high in the air before landing near the Talon soldiers and slamming his fists to the ground, startling them and knocking the Talon soldiers off of their feet. Reinhardt charged in after Winston, swinging his hammer at any Talon soldier close to him, Soldier 76 used the icy mist as an advantage and snuck behind the enemy soldiers before unloading his clip into their backs. Tracer and Scout stuck together as they moved quickly around the Talon soldiers, none of the Talon soldiers noticed them as they were having a hard time seeing through the mist, and as punishment they were getting killed one by one. Mercy healed Pharah as both took off from the ground and shot rockets from above, but as Pharah continued to shoot she was being shot at by Widowmaker. Scout saw where the bullet came from and made a smirk.
Scout: Tracer! I'll be in a few! Im gonna pay Widow a visit!
Tracer: Be careful Scout! She is very deadly!
Scout: That makes the two of us!
Scout then started running towards the area where the bullet came from, while Tracer continued to help the others out, Mei continued to shoot her icicle as she hid in the mist. Engineer and Symmetra fought together, Symmetra shooting her Photon Projector at the Talon soldiers as Engineer hit any soldiers that came near Symmetra with his gunslinger. Engineer then took out his PDA and pressed a few buttons before throwing down a tool box to the floor before the tool box began to build itself into a mini-sentry, Symmetra building her sentry on a wall. Each sentry killing some Talon soldiers before they ceased fire, Engineer chuckled at his invention.
Engineer: I love that little gun.
Symmetra looked at the mini-sentry before kneeling down to get a better look at it, the mini-sentry looked back at her with curiosity as it tilted its metal head. Engineer put a hand on her shoulder to show the mini-sentry that she is an ally, the mini-sentry beeped as it understood. Symmetra giggled at the mini-sentry as it popped its head up and down excitedly.
Symmetra: It's so cute.
Engineer: It may be cute but it's also deadly, so I wouldn't really try petting it much.
Engineer and Symmetra were then reminded that they were still in a battle as bullets were shot at them and they ran to find cover, their mini-sentries covering fire. However, as they ran to cover, Widowmaker had her Widow's kiss aimed at Engie's head, she smiled wickedly as she put her finger on the trigger. But before she could squeeze the trigger, she felt a tap on the side of her head, she looked to her side to see Scout looking down at her, his metal bat in hand.
Scout: Yo what's up.
Widowmaker got out of her sniping position and swung her leg at Scout's face, Scout dodged easily yet was already terrified.
Scout: AHHH!
Scout screamed as he dodged another attack from Widowmaker. Scout then jumped over her to get behind her and then started choking her with his bat, Scout doing his best to keep choking her as Widowmaker grips the bat and tries to get out of his choke hold.
Scout: Augh! Quit squirming!
Widowmaker elbowed Scout's rib very hard, causing him to let Widowmaker free as he felt his now bruised rib. Widowmaker then kicked Scout's feet off the ground causing him to fall on his side, quickly jumping on top of him and pushed his face to the ground as she puts his arm in a painful position.
Scout: Argh! Why do I get the feeling I've been through this before!?
Widowmaker: garcon fou.
Widowmaker said as she pushed down on Scout's face and pulling Scout's arm in a more painful position. Scout felt Widowmaker's fingers near his mouth and took the chance an bit her finger hard, Widowmaker let out a painful cry before backing away from Scout to recover her finger, Scout got up fast and took his bat from the floor and ran towards Widowmaker. Widowmaker saw this but was too late to dodge as Scout hit her in the stomach with his metal bat.
Scout: Bionk!
Widowmaker moaned in pain as she bended over an gripped her stomach in pain. Scout then swung his bat up to her face, making her forehead bleed but also damaging her Infra-sight.
Scout: Bonk!
Widowmaker fell to the floor, her head aching in pain, her vision very blurry, she tried crawling away but Scout wasn't done with her yet. Scout ran towards a wall and jumped on it before jumping off of it, giving him a good height in the air, he gripped his bat tightly with both of his hands then brought it over his head before releasing his battle cry.
Scout: RAHHHH!
Scout slammed his metal bat into the back of Widowmaker's skull, killing her. Scout wasn't sure if it was just him but he was pretty sure that he heard a big cracking noise when he hit her in the head.
Scout: That's a skull fracture for sure.
Scout said before looking at his metal bat to find some blood on it, he grimaced at the sight before wiping it off with Widowmaker's body before running off into battle. As the battle kept on going more of the Talon soldiers were being killed, Reaper growled at how useless his soldiers were, he turned back to Bell who simply just stood there watching the fight.
Reaper: Bell!
Bell turned her attention towards Reaper.
Reaper: Why are you just standing there!? Get your robot out here to fight them!
Bell hesitated at first but then took out her remote device to summon her robot, but before she could press the button she heard Engie calling her name.
Engineer: Bell! Don't do it!
Engineer said as he struggled to get to her, he was fighting off two Talon soldiers, whacking them with his gunslinger. Bell looked down at the remote before looking back at Engie, she now does not know what to do.
Reaper: What are you doing!? Press the dam button!
Bell looked back at Reaper before looking back at the device.
Engineer: Do not do it Bell!
Reaper: I demand you to press it!
Engineer: Don't press it!
Reaper: DO IT!
Engineer: DON'T!
Bell looked back in forth to Reaper and Engineer, a battle between two forces happening in her mind. As she was contemplating on what to do the Overwatch agents and mercenaries have finished off the rest of Talon soldiers and were now running towards Reaper and Bell. Reaper growled at Bell.
Reaper: PRESS THE BUTTON ALREADY YOU USELESS WORKER!
As soon as Bell heard that, the battle in her mind ended and she chose a new side. She looked at Reaper before glaring at him.
Bell: No.
She tossed the remote to the floor as she made up her mind. Reaper growled at her before making a move for his dual weapons, Bell took out her golden frontier justice that was loaded with crits, but before she could aim Reaper shot at her in the center of her chest. Bell let out a cry of pain before Reaper shot her again, this time in the stomach, finishing her off as she fell to the floor in defeat. Engineer and Scout's eyes widened from the sight, this is the first time they ever saw her be outclassed. Engineer growled as he ran towards Reaper as fast as he could, Reaper grabbed the remote from the floor before pressing the button, summoning the Scoutbot. Reaper laughed before disappearing in a black mist, Engie cursed before running towards Bell who was on the ground bleeding, Scout following Engie.
Engineer: Bell!
Engineer kneeled besides Bell, but Bell did not respond nor move.
Scout: Bell?...are you dead?
Scout said has he leaned over her, his head above her head. In a quick action Bell punched Scout in the face causing his nose to bleed.
Scout: Ow!
Bell: Last thing I want to do before I die.
Bell said weakly, she pulled her bandana off of her mouth so she can breathe easily, but also smirked as she sees Scout holding his bloody nose. Engineer rolled his eyes before looking back at Scout.
Engineer: Well at least we know she's still alive.
Scout: I wish she wasn't.
Scout muttered, glaring at Bell.
Engineer: Mercy! Fly over here quickly!
Mercy heard her name being called and looked at Engineer before flying towards him, her staff ready to heal. Mercy looked down at the stranger next to Engineer and began to heal her, but was disturbed when Scout started complaining.
Scout: Uhh I know she is dying but my nose is bleeding over here.
Mercy motioned Scout to come closer to her, he obeyed but then wished he didn't when she grabbed his nose and pushed it back into its proper position, making a loud cracking noise.
Scout: AHHHH! That hurt!
Mercy: But it's fixed isn't it? Stop being such a baby.
Mercy said before continuing to heal Bell, Scout mumbled some curses before beginning to wipe the blood off of his nose with the cloth that was tied around his hands, Tracer blinking towards him to accompany him. As Mercy continued to heal Bell, Bell started to regain her strength.
Bell: You guys need to get ready, the Scoutbot is coming.
Bell said before trying to get up, but still feeling a little weak.
Mercy: You need to rest for fast recovery, let us worry about this Scoutb-wait a minute…how do you know the Scoutbot is coming?
Bell: Because…im its creator, and that remote is suppose to call it.
Mercy gaped before looking at Engie.
Mercy: Why did you let me heal her!?
Engineer: I'll explain later, right now we got a problem to deal with.
Mercy: Wait are you also responsible for the Engiebot?
Bell made a nervous smile as she nodded, Mercy glared into her soul.
Mercy: You are gonna wish you weren't.
Mercy growled at Bell before turning around and flying back towards the rest of her agents to heal them.
"Sheesh, her glare almost killed me." Bell thought.
She received another glare from Tracer as she overheard the conversation, she also glared at her for punching Scout. Scout put a hand on her shoulder.
Scout: Come on Tracer, we got to warn the others about the robot me coming to attack us.
Tracer nodded before following Scout to the others.
Scout: Yo incoming you guys, better get ready.
Soldier 76: For what?
Tracer: Remember the Scoutbot?
Soldier 76: Oh.
Engineer looked back at Bell to question her.
Engineer: Any weaknesses this Scoutbot has?
Bell: Weakness? Dell me and you both know that I create an inventions to be perfect with no weaken-
Bell's sentence were interrupted to the sound of footsteps coming from the door, everyone aimed their weapons at the door, minus Engie and Scout who still don't have their weapons back. The door opened to reveal Scoutbot, it walked into the room showing no emotion and showing no signs of threats. It ignored the weapons pointed at it as it scanned the room for its creator, once it spotted her, it saw her health percentage and noticed it was lower than what it was before. The Scoutbot automatically assumed the agents and mercenaries were responsible and took out its weapon. The Scoutbot's eyes changed to red as it was set into attack mode, then aimed its scatter gun at Reinhardt and started shooting critical bullets. Reinhardt winced in pain before activating his shield to block the bullets, the other heroes started shooting the Scoutbot. The Scoutbot started to dodge the bullets as it ran in incredible speed, making it hard for the heroes to keep track of it. Soon it was behind Reinhardt without him noticing and shot his back, Reinhardt growled turning around and swinging his hammer at the Scoutbot, Scoutbot didn't even bother to dodge as it blocked the hammer with just one hand. Reinhardt was amazed yet terrified by its capability.
Reinhardt: Impossible!
The Scoutbot grinned wickedly.
Scoutbot: I am the Scout here.
The Scoutbot then pulled out its bat and swung upward to Reinhardt head, sending Reinhardt flying to the air before landing a couple feet away. Soldier 76 started shooting the Scoutbot as Mercy flew to Reinhardt's aid, doing his best to keep aim on it as the Scoutbot jumped around to dodge his bullets. Scoutbot was in front of 76 in seconds before it kicked him hard in the chest, sending 76 to the floor, Scoutbot then knocked out 76 with another kick, then started attacking the others. Engineer was just watching this but then looked back at Bell.
Engineer: Isn't there something you could do here!?
Bell: Dell I can't do much here, not without my remote at least and Reaper has it.
Engineer: Don't you have voice commands for that thing?
Bell: Yes but since it thinks you guys attacked me, it will not stop at my command.
Engineer: Why the hell would you build it like that!?
Bell shrugged.
Bell: I guess not everything I make is perfect.
Engineer groaned before starting to run towards the Scoutbot, but Bell yelled for him.
Bell: Dell!
Engineer: What!?
Engie screamed, obviously not in the mood to be talking to Bell.
Bell: Take this!
Bell threw her golden frontier justice at Engie, he caught it and noticed that it was filled with crits.
Bell: 12 crit shots! Make them count!
Engie nodded then continued to run towards the fight. Scoutbot currently was being freezed by Mei as she continued to freeze it, giving Winston and Pharah the chance to attack. Winston used his Tesla Cannon on it while Pharah readied her rockets. Before Pharah could unleash all of her rockets at it the Scoutbot broke free and hit Winston in the face with its bat, causing Winston to release his Primal Rage. Winston let out a huge roar and attacked the Scoutbot, swinging his fists in furry. Scoutbot dodged his attackes easily then grabbed one of his hands to block his attack.
Scoutbot: Your heads a freaking bat magnet!
Scoutbot hit Winston in the head again although this time using all of its strength, knocking Winston out. Mei was doing her best to freeze the Scoutbot again but then had to reload, Scoutbot took this as an advantage and took her weapon away and broke it as it hit the weapon with its bat multiple times. Scoutbot then made a move for Mei but was attacked by Mei's little robot friend (I don't know its name, sorry), it flew around Scoutbot and started freezing it to let give its master a chance to escape. Mei started to run away but looked back just in time to see Scoutbot grabbing her little robot and hitting it with the metal bat, sending her robot straight to wall and breaking it. Mei let a tear fall out before continuing to run.
Scoutbot: I broke your stupid crap moron!
Before Scoutbot could run after Mei, Pharah shot a rocket at him, hitting Scoutbot directly, causing it to be knocked back some distance away. Pharah then flew in the air before yelling.
Pharah: Justice rains from above!
She shot all of her rockets at the Scoutbot, who was currently getting up from the first rocket. All the rockets exploded in the area where Scoutbot was, leaving nothing but smoke. When the smoke cleared out there was no sign of the Scoutbot.
Pharah: Huh?
Confusion entered Pharah's mind as she was not sure where the Scoutbot went. Suddenly something shot her jetpack causing it to stop functioning and she fell to the floor, her landing was hard and a loud thud could be heard when she hit the floor. As she tried to recover from the fall the Scoutbot stood above her, showing only little signs of damage to it.
Scoutbot: Nice shot! Too bad you didn't hit much.
Pharah gasped as she now feared for her life, Scoutbot grinned before aiming the scatter gun at her head, but again Scoutbot was interrupted when he was shot at by Mercy, Symmetra, and Tracer. Scoutbot grinned before attacking its next victim, Mercy. It ran straight for her, while easily dodging Tracer's bullets.
Tracer: Mercy it's coming for you!
Mercy gasped before trying to fly away, but Scoutbot jumped above her and kicked her in the back, making her hit the ground face first. She moaned in pain as she tried to get up but felt a foot on her back and pushed her back to the floor.
Scoutbot: Doctor, doctor, doctor.
Scoutbot said as it shook its head. Before Scoutbot could do anything else to Mercy it felt lots of bullets hit its back, it turned around to see an Energy ball heading straight towards it. Scoutbot jumped off of Mercy to dodge the Energy ball and started heading for Symmetra, Symmetra's eyes widened before she continued to shoot her energy ball at it while trying to run away. But the Scoutbot was easily catching up to her as it ignored Tracer's bullets, but was then shot at by Symmetra and Engie's mini-sentries. Symmetra's sentry shooting a laser beam at it while Engie's shot bullets at it.
Scoutbot: Augh!
Scoutbot ran at its new targets, leaving Symmetra alone. It shot its critical bullets at Symmetra's sentry, then knocked over Engie's sentry, making it harmless and vulnerable but Scoutbot destroyed anyway with one close up shot with the critical scattergun. It then faced Tracer and Symmetra who were standing together and aiming at the Scoutbot. The Scoutbot laughed as it started running towards them but was then shot in the back by five critical bullets. And turned to see Scout and Engie next to eachother, Engie holding the golden frontier justice that was filled with crits while Scout held his metal bat and his Bonk! drink in the other. It glared at the two mercenaries before charging at them, Scout ran forward while Engie stuck behind. Scout ran at his machine counter-part while Scoutbot ran faster, then both Scouts met each other as their metal bats collided. Both Scouts were right in front of each other, face to face. Scoutbot smirked at Scout as he received glares from him.
Scoutbot: Maybe after beat the crap out of you, I'll take your girl to dinner, how's that?
Scout: Uhh no, you won't be able to eat either way ya stupid moron trashcan.
Scout then swung for Scoutbot's head, it ducked before swinging at Scout's legs, knocking Scout off his feat, Scoutbot then brought its bat down to Scout but he blocked it with his bat. Before Scoutbot could bring its bat down on Scout again it was shot by Engineer, seeing that Scoutbot was distracted Scout quickly got up and jumped onto its back, hitting its head with his bat repeatedly. Scout looked at Engineer as he rode Scoutbot's back.
Scout: Engie help the others! I'll try to distract this thing as long as I can.
Scout said before continuing to hit Scoutbot's head. Engineer ran towards Tracer and Symmetra to check on them.
Engineer: You two alright?
Symmetra: We're fine but the others need healing, and Mercy is also hurt.
Engineer: Ok Tracer, you go and try to help Scout. Symmetra, I'll build a dispencer while you try to get everyone close to it, I'll help you once I'm done building it.
Tracer nodded before blinking towards Scout who was screaming of horror as he was currently holding onto Scoutbot for dear life since it was trying to pull Scout off.
Reinhardt: What about me?
Reinhardt said as he walked up to them.
Engineer: Reinhardt? I thought you were still hurt?
Reinhardt: Mercy healed me before she was attacked by that evil Scout robot thing, so I'm ready for another round.
Engineer: Good we can use your help to carry everyone to my dispencer.
Reinhardt nodded before running towards Winston and 76, Engineer put a toolbox down then ran towards Pharah to help her up while the toolbox slowly began to build itself into a dispencer, Symmetra helped Mercy up and began to walk her to the dispencer, as soon as Engineer got Pharah to the dispencer he gently sat Pharah on the floor before hitting the dispencer with his gunslinger to speed up the building process. Reinhardt came in with Winston and Soldier 76 on his shoulders, with Mei behind him who was carrying her broken little robot friend, she was looking down at it sadly.
Reinhardt: I found Mei, her weapon is broken, along with her dear little friend.
Reinhardt dropped Winston and 76 off of the floor as an effort to wake them up, which worked as 76 moaned and Winston growled as he gripped his bruised forehead. Engineer finished building his dispencer, once it was built it began to heal the agents, once Mercy was feeling better she got up and started healing the others. After they were all healed Engie sent Soldier 76 and Mercy to help Scout and Tracer, while he made the others stay to discuss a plan.
Winston: How are we gonna destroy that robot? It seems to have great strength yet also great speed, does it even have a weakness?
Engineer: I'm afraid not Winston, the creator of the robot said so.
Bell: Actually it does have a weakness.
Bell said as she walked up from behind Engineer, startling him a bit.
Engineer: About time you got up.
Bell: Well after seeing you guys getting beat up by my invention I guess it gave me enough guilty to go and help you guys.
Engineer: How flattering.
Engineer said sarcastically.
Winston: Your responsible for that machine!?
Symmetra: You're the reason why I killed Engie!?
Bell: Yep. Wait you killed who?
Winston was having a hard time controlling his rage, his skin was already changing colors as he was trying to hold it in, Bell noticed this and sighed.
Bell: Look Winston is it? Can you be mad at me later? Right now we got something else to do.
Engineer: As much as I hate to admit it but she is right Winston.
Winston let out a defeated sigh before his skin went back to his normal color. Symmetra was still not giving up as she was about to take out her Photon Projector only to be stopped by Engie who held her hand and shook his head, Symmetra also let out a defeated sigh before crossing her arms. Engineer looked back at Bell.
Engineer: I thought you said your robot doesn't have a weakness before?
Bell: I only said that I make my inventions to be perfect, yet again I say not everything I make is perfect.
Engineer: Well what is its weakness?
Bell: Remember when you took out my Engiebot with one hard punch with your metal hand?
Bell's question made the whole group gasp and wide eyes started starring at Engie, Symmetra looked at Engineer before asking.
Symmetra: Is she serious?
Engie nodded before answering Bell's question.
Engineer: Yeah, how could I not?
Bell: Well while I was building the robots, both of them had a specific spots in their mechanics that I just could not improve, these spots are their weakness for if they are to be harmed in that specific area, they would be destroyed.
Engineer: So I guess that Engiebot's weakness was the head?
Bell: Basically, the metal jaw you knocked off was connected to an important source that kept the Engiebot going, when you disconnected it from the source it damaged its source.
Symmetra: So where is Scoutbot's weakness?
Bell: The mid center, that's where the weak point is, also known as the area where the source that runs Scoutbot hides.
Reinhardt: But how could we hit that thing? It moves so fast that I can't even see it! And even when we did hit it, that abomination didn't even show any signs of hit being damaged!
Bell: I used a special type of metal and steel to protect the insides of the robot, so you can't really put a bullet through it that easily.
Winston: Well then how do you suggest we do this?
Before Bell could answer Scout suddenly fell to the floor next to them, sliding until he slowly went to a stop, he groaned before picking himself up and shaking his head, trying to shake off the dizziness.
Bell: Him.
Bell shifted her head to Scout's direction, leaving everyone confused.
Engineer: Him? No offence Scout but you don't hit too strong.
Scout: Hey screw you Engie, but what is it you want me to do?
Bell: You still have that drink on ya right?
Scout: Yeah I do.
Scout took out his drink and held it up.
Bell: Good, you are gonna need it for this task im gonna give ya.
Scout: And what's that?
Bell: Scout I need you to drink that soda, and all of it. Then you have to run up towards the Scoutbot and hit it with all you got at the mid center, or for your case the stomach area.
Scout: What!? You ain't making me disappear forever!
Bell: Scout calm down, there's only a 56% chance for that to happen.
Winston: Ok wait hold up, I'm confused here, why do you want him to drink all of that soda? And why did he say he doesn't want to disappear?
Engineer: It's a long story but I'll cut it short since we only have a limited amount of time.
Engineer said as checked to see how things are going for Tracer, Mercy, and 76, and things were going bad as he saw Tracer being chased around by Scoutbot, while Soldier 76 kept shooting at it with Mercy healing him.
Engineer: Whenever Scout drinks that soda it causes him to move inhuman speeds, and based on his description the world seems to slow down.
Engineer said quickly.
Bell: And if he were to drink huge amounts of that soda the world would go completely still, but there is a chance of him remaining in the frozen world, and while he is stuck there we would not be able to see him again, but he would be able to see us.
Winston had so many questions about this soda but decided to ask questions later.
Scout: I don't see why you want me to drink ALL of this soda in one shot, I mean I know I've been drinking this a lot without a refill but there is still a good amount left.
Bell: Because my Scoutbot can detect movement in his scanner, if you were to drink a little amount of that soda it would still be able to see you coming, it would block your attack.
Symmetra: Why would you want him to hit it when he is in the time slow down thing?
Bell: Even though Scout ain't really that strong when the time is present, there is a big difference when time has stopped for him. Scout you need to do this so the Scoutbot can be destroyed, I hate to admit this but you are our only hope to defeat it. Well their hope to be precise.
Scout looked down at his drink and then looked at the others, he was scared as always but he didn't want anyone to die because of him being scared. Engie came up to him and put a hand on his shoulder.
Engineer: You can do this Scout, I know you can.
Scout: Why are you so sure?
Engineer: Because Scout me and you have done some crazy things together, and during those times I realized that you are capable of things that no man can ever do. And you know how your brothers would say that your not a man? Then prove to them that you are and that you are much more!
Scout was slightly moved by this, but was now pumped up and ready to go. Scout smirked before nodding, ready to do his mission, Engie chuckled before patting Scout's back. All of a sudden 76 came flying in and landed harshly on his back, his forehead bleeding, Mercy came flying in to his side and started to heal him, Tracer blinked next to him to help as well. Tracer then turned to Engie.
Tracer: What the hell is taking you so long!? We are running out of time!
Soldier 76: We already did run out of time…
Soldier 76 said as he pointed at Scoutbot who was standing some distance away, starring at the group with the desire to kill.
Tracer: I really hope you guys have a plan!
Bell: We do.
Bell said while shifting her head towards Scout, Tracer made a confused expression before walking towards him.
Tracer: Scout, love, what are you gonna do?
Scout smiled before grabbing both of her hands.
Scout: Something that's gotta be done. This maybe a goodbye.
Before Tracer could question him why, he kissed her in the lips for a good 5 seconds before ending it and letting go of her hands, then he started walking towards the Scoutbot, his Bonk! soda in his hand.
Tracer: Scout?
Scout didn't respond as he stopped a couple feet away from Scoutbot, glaring at it.
Scoutbot: Oh what? You want another rematch ya stupid jockey?
Scout didn't answer as he raised his soda to his face.
Scoutbot: OOOOOH yeah your real scary.
Scout hesitated but then brought the soda to his lips and began to drink all that was left, once he finished the soda he disappeared out of nowhere. The Overwatch members gasped at the sudden disappearance of Scout, except for Bell and Engie who expected this to happen.
Scoutbot: What?
Scoutbot turned his head left and right to scan for Scout but couldn't find him, nor could he see any movement. Scoutbot then looked back at the group and laughed.
Scoutbot: Ha! Looks like he abandoned you guys, what a wuss.
Tracer: He is not a wuss! Unlike you he can take a hit without running away!
Scoutbot: Yeah yeah whatever dolly but time to die.
The Overwatch agents including Engineer aimed their weapons at Scoutbot, but as soon as Scoutbot took one step forward to them it was knocked by a mysterious force. Scoutbot did its best to maintain balance and looked down to its mid center to see a little dent, Scoutbot was completely surprised by the sudden damage he took out of nowhere.
Scoutbot: What the!? What the hell is going on!?
Even the Overwatch agents were confused, but then Tracer spotted a piece of paper stuck to the back of Scoutbot.
Tracer: Uhh excuse me.
Scoutbot: What?
Tracer: You seem to have something stuck to your back.
Scoutbot reached for its back and ripped the paper off, but tilted its head from what the paper said, but then looked back up at the group before saying.
Scoutbot: Uh oh.
A loud bang sound burst out of nowhere as Scoutbot suddenly flew to the wall back-first, letting go of the paper it held, Scoutbot hit the wall very hard leaving several cracks on it before sliding down to the floor, its glowing red eyes fading away, it did not get up. All of the Overwatch members were now speechless, including Bell and Engie. Tracer was the first to move after seeing such a scene and walked slowly to the paper on the floor, she picked it up and read it before gasping and blinking towards the group.
Tracer: Guys it's him! It's Scout!
Tracer pointer her finger at the paper for everyone to read it, and what it said shocked everybody, but made Engie chuckle.
"I'm a force of nature!"
Engineer: Hehe, he really is.
Engineer then began to walk towards the robot but then spot something on the floor, he walked over to it and picked up and recognized as Scout's bat, but it was broken. One side of the bat had many deep dents, and the metal bat looked a little bent.
Engineer: Dam Scout you were hitting that thing hard.
Tracer blinked next to him to inspect the bat.
Tracer: Is this his?
Engineer: Yeah.
Tracer: But-
Bell: You two may wanna come look at this.
Engineer and Tracer walked towards Bell and saw what was in her hand, it was the Bonk! soda can.
Engineer: We are seeing Scout's stuff.
Tracer: Forget about Scout's stuff, where is Scout?
This questioned popped up in everyone's mind as they began to look around for Scout, but did not see him anywhere. Engineer and Bell feared the worst has happened, their only idea where Scout could be is one place. Frozen in time.
