Time Error 2
Chapter 14: Getting along
The forest was quiet and dark as it hasn't reached morning, but as the sun rose slowly up in the horizon the sound of birds musical tones chirped as they sung their morning song. But suddenly two bright flashes came out of nowhere, resulting the new appearances of two figures in the forest. One of them looked like an old soldier, with the number 76 on the back of his uniform and a visor for his eyes, the other looked like a gorilla with white armor, and had a jetpack equipped to his back.
Soldier 76: What the hell was that?
Soldier 76 groaned while rubbing his head since he fell to the dirt face first, the gorilla also known as Winston, shook his head to shake off his hard fall and began to inspect their surroundings, and the only word that popped in his head was "forest."
Soldier 76: Winston!
Winston: Sorry 76 what did you say?
Soldier 76: I said what the hell was that? What happened? And why are we here?
Winston: I'm not sure what happened but one thing I can confirm about it is that it has something to do about my time machine. And where we are? I believe we are in a forest 76.
Soldier 76 looked around the area, seeing nothing but trees.
Soldier 76: What should we do?
Winston: We should try to find the other agents, assuming that they were sent here as well, then try to find any bit of civilization. We need to find out when we are.
Soldier 76: When? Don't you mean where?
Winston: Technically speaking, when is the correct term since we don't know what year we are in.
Soldier 76: Whatever. Let's start moving.
*Warehouse*
Scout: Engie!
Engineer looked away from Symmetra and saw Scout and Tracer running towards them.
Engineer: If you either of you are gonna complain about who won the race then stop being a sore loser.
Scout: It's not about that! course I would have won the race.
Scout whispered the last part to Engie but Tracer still heard it and punched him in the arm.
Engineer: What is it then?
Tracer: There were two bright flashes out in the forest.
Scout: Yeah! And before I found Tracer and Symmetra there was also a bright flash, I think these other two flashes are more of our buddies.
Engineer and Symmetra looked at each other before looking back at Scout and Tracer.
Symmetra: Then we should move!
Engineer: Hell, couldn't have said it better myself.
The four of them hurried outside the warehouse, Scout then pointed out where the bright flashes appeared, seeing how it was far away Engie ordered Scout and Tracer to run ahead of them to get there faster, the runners nodded before running towards their objective. Symmetra built a teleporter where they were so that when they found the other agents they could use the teleporter to get back quickly.
Symmetra: Dell, we should get going now.
Engineer: Just a sec, Soldier I need you to-
Engineer was not able to finish his sentence as he saw Soldier leaning against his rocket launcher sleeping, snoring loudly. Pharah laughed a little at the sight of Soldier, this just supports her belief that Soldier is not a soldier.
Pharah: Some soldier he is.
Engineer: Pharah, this man has stayed up all night standing tall as he guarded you so you could sleep peacefully, give him some credit will ya?
Engineer's statement knocked the smirk off of Pharah's lips, he had a fair point.
Engineer: Heavy, you take charge until we return.
Heavy nodded his head before Engie and Symmetra began to follow Scout and Tracer's footprints that led to the new agents that have arrived.
*Soldier 76 and Winston*
The two agents have been wandering for some time now, looking around for anything that could explain what year they're in. After a couple more minutes Soldier 76 started to get annoyed.
Soldier 76: What year is this!? Is this the years when there's nothing but trees?
Winston: Settle down 76, I'm sure there is something nearby.
Soldier 76: There's nothing around here, you said so yourself when you climbed up one of the trees.
Winston: Fair enough…augh let's take a break. Hadn't walk this much for awhile.
Soldier 76: I'm sure if Athena saw this it would be proud of you since you finally started doing your cardio.
Winston glared at 76 with a growl before shooting back.
Winston: For your information Athena does know that I am doing this, since my armor has a small connection to it, allowing Athena to scan my physical health status.
Soldier 76: ….so it knows you're still alive?
Winston: Yes.
Soldier 76: Can't you talk to it?
Winston: Unfortunately no, and even if I did have some way to communicate to Athena I am not sure it would be possible. We're possibly years apart from each other.
76 sighed of defeat, he was not sure if they would ever be able to get back home. But then a noise could be heard from bushes not too far away, causing Soldier 76 to draw his weapon and aim for the bushes, Winston didn't take out his Telsa cannon but held his ground firmly, focusing on the bushes that began to shake. Then suddenly from the bushes popped out a rain deer, it stared curiously at the two agents. After a short pause Winston began to chuckle, Soldier 76 groaned before putting away his pulse rifle.
Winston: Getting all worked just because of an innocent rain deer huh?
Soldier 76: Could have been something more serious.
Winston: What? A wild bunny?
Soldier 76: Har har you're so funny I forgot how to laugh. Let's not forget that you too were looking very serious.
Winston: If you're implying that I was scared, no I wasn't, I was just waiting to see what would jump out. What do I got to be afraid of? I'm one of the strongest animals in the world.
Soldier 76: Says the gorilla who eats banana with peanut butter in his spare time.
Winston was completely offended by Soldier 76's comment.
Winston: What's wrong with eating a banana with peanut butter?
Before 76 could answer Winston's question, a sniper shot could be heard, and the rain deer before the two agents fell to the ground with a thud. Winston stood there with shock as 76 hid behind tree.
Soldier 76: Winston! Find some cover!
Winston: Who could have shot such an innocent creature!?
Soldier 76: Winston hide!
Winston: This rain deer wasn't a threat to anything!
Soldier 76: Damn it Winston get to cover already!
Winston: Where could I get cover!? I'm too big to hide behind any of these thin trees!
Soldier 76: Well do something then!
Winston looked around with panic but then looked up at the branches of the trees, he could go up there and hide in the leaves, and with haste he used his boosters to get to the branches. In a couple minutes of hiding a vehicle could be heard approaching their location, 76 decided to use his hiding spot as an advantage and try to ambush whoever was coming, so he waited until they fully arrived. After a few more minutes the vehicle appeared nearby and came to a halt, 76 took notices that the vehicle was a van, a camper van of some sort by the looks of it. Now that the van was here, all he had to do was wait until the passengers and driver got out. The passenger door of the van opened up, and who came out of the passenger seat completely shocked Winston and 76, it was Amelie, and she had a small but real smile on her face. Next came out the driver, and he had a big smile on his face, the driver kept on chuckling before speaking up.
Sniper: Good shot Amelie! Really impressive.
Amelie: You're not a bad shot yourself Sniper.
Amelie complimented back, this stunned 76 and Winston, did she just gave that man a compliment?
"Who are you and what have you done to the real Amelie?" 76 thought to himself as he hid behind his cover.
Sniper: Eheheh thanks sheila, let's get this deer to the back of the van so we could bring it to our camp.
Amelie: Wanting to finish our date so soon? You sure you wouldn't want to stay a little longer together?
Sniper: Ohohoh listen here ya naughty widow, as much as I would like to stay with you more, we got to get this critter skinned and cooked before the meat goes bad, plus the others could be starving right now.
Sniper made a move to get past Amelie only for her to push him back against the van.
Amelie: I'm sure they could wait…
Amelie leaned in closer to Sniper.
Amelie: Permettez-moi de vous montrer ce que je peux vraiment faire…
Sniper's heart rate increased, like as if he knew what she just said, Amelie began lean in for a kiss, Sniper was intimidated at first but then slowly leaned in as well.
"What the fuc-!?" 76's thoughts were interrupted when he heard the sound wood cracking, apparently the branches that Winston was on was not strong enough to hold him forever and was giving out. Suddenly the branches snapped off the tree and Winston came falling down, a loud thud could be heard as Winston's body made contact to the ground, 76 hoped that Amelie and the Sniper didn't hear him but it was false hope as the noise was hard not to notice. Soldier 76 turned to see if Winston was okay and saw him rubbing his head, grumbling about how much weight he's gained over the years.
Sniper: Oi! Who's there!?
Soldier 76 looked back towards the two skilled snipers and saw them aiming towards their direction. They've been caught. Coming slowly out of his cover with his hands up, he revealed himself to them.
Soldier 76: Amelie, don't shoot it's me. 76.
Sniper looked at Amelie with confusion.
Sniper: You know this bloke Amelie?
Winston came out from where he was to introduce himself.
Winston: Hello Amelie, glad to see you're ok after the sudden teleportation of time. At least I think you are any way.
Winston said while feeling unsure, thinking that the time worm hole may have messed up her mind to make her flirt with some rifleman. Normally she would have been killing them. Sniper stared at Winston with great surprise, his mouth wide open and his eyes looking up and down at the gorilla in front of him.
Sniper: D-did that gorilla just talk!? Never mind that, I've seen worse. Do you know these two Amelie?
Amelie: I wish I didn't.
Amelie hissed as she glared at the two agents for interrupting their moment, she would have shot them dead by now if they weren't part of Overwatch.
Soldier 76: Are you gonna introduce us to your…you know.
Amelie was about to go black widow on 76 until Sniper spoke.
Sniper: The name is Sniper. And who are you?
Soldier 76: I go by Soldier 76, 76 for short.
Winston: And I am Winston. And yes I am a gorilla that can talk.
Sniper: Soldier 76? Winston? Oh I heard of you fellas.
Winston: Really?
Sniper: Yeah, early before Engie told the rest of us mercs about you agents.
Soldier 76: Well, good to know he still remembers us.
Running footsteps could be heard nearby and out came Scout, running towards them looking tired as hell. Once he reached the van he fell against it and sat down, while trying to speak even though he needs to catch his breath.
Scout: I…win…
Tracer came blinking in, she too looked exhausted.
Tracer: This…did not count…as a race Scout…
Tracer collapsed on Scout and tried to catch her breath after the long run, Scout didn't even care as he was too tired to complain how heavy she felt on top of him. Scout looked over and saw Winston and 76.
Scout: Oh hey Winston, sup 76.
Tracer's head popped up and she looked to see Winston and 76, she instantly regained her energy and ran towards them.
Tracer: Winston!
Tracer gave her best friend a big huge, glad to see him again.
Winston: Lena! Glad to see my TTPBs sent you here in one piece. Is it still functional?
Tracer: Yes love, just recharging is all.
Tracer held out her right arm to show him the TTPB, looking perfectly fine.
Winston: Hmm good.
Soldier 76: So you're not gonna check up on me? Okay I see how it is.
Tracer: *giggles* Lovely to see you too 76.
Scout: Yo Winston, it's been awhile.
Winston: Well if it isn't one of the fastest beings on earth.
Scout: You bet! Hey 76! You still mad about me calling you an old man?
Soldier 76: Ha, don't remind me kid.
Sniper: Welp I am glad you're all having this happy reunion but we should get going back to our camp site.
Sniper picked up the corpse of the rain deer and tossed it in the back of his van, Winston however looked horrified when he did so.
Winston: What are planning to do with the rain deer?
Sniper: It's breakfast mate.
Winston froze where he stood, he was completely shocked. Tracer looked at him with worry as she noticed how tense he got, she waved her hand in front of his face to get any response from him but didn't receive any?
Tracer: Winston?
Sniper: Oi Tracer, I think you'll have to guide Winston back to the campsite, I don't think both he and Soldier 76 could fit in the back of my van.
Tracer: Aww, so us three have to walk all the way back?
Scout: Argh! This sucks on ice!
Engineer: Don't worry y'all, the engineer is engihere, hehehe.
No one laughed at Engie's little joke except for him, not even Symmetra laughed and she just shook her head.
Symmetra: Dell I love you but please no more.
Scout: Engie you're not a comedian, you're a mechanic.
Engineer frowned before mumbling to himself, until Winston greeted him.
Winston: Engineer, I am grateful to see you again.
Engineer looked up to his gorilla friend Winston.
Engineer: Winston! Many years since we last saw each other and you haven't changed a bit.
Winston: Well I wouldn't say that, may have gained some weight but the armor still fits.
Engineer laughed at Winston's comment before looking at Soldier 76.
Engineer: Howdy 76.
Soldier 76: Engineer, surprised to see no change of appearance.
Engineer: Well I do own some cosmetics, but I prefer to keep my old uniform.
Scout: Uhh yeah Engie, did you by any chance happen to build a teleporter back at the camp site?
Engineer: Nope, but Symmetra built hers.
Symmetra nodded before placing her teleporter down, and the teleporter formed out of the blue light.
Symmetra: We may return to our camp.
Sniper: Yeah you guys use that, I prefer me van.
Sniper walked to his van and entered the driver seat, Amelie entered the passenger seat of his van and the both of them drove off.
Scout: Eheheh, looks like those two are getting comfy around each other.
Tracer: Oh leave them be Scout.
Scout: Hey! You have no right to say that! You too are teasing them!
Tracer: Ohhh shut it you!
Tracer tackled Scout and both went through the teleporter, Winston and 76 went in next, now there was only Engineer and Symmetra, although Engie was busy looking at her teleporter.
Symmetra: What is it? Haven't you already seen my teleporter?
Engineer: Oh I have, but I just had to see it again since it is so amazing to look at. Just like you are.
Symmetra: Aww you're so sweet, a kiss before we go back to the others?
Engineer: Yeah!
Engineer leaned in for a kiss but only to be pushed into the teleporter by Symmetra, she giggled before going through the teleporter. When she came through she saw Engie picking himself up, although he shook his head at her.
Engineer: Now that was just rude, don't expect any love from me anytime soon.
Symmetra rolled her eyes and gave him a smirk, he couldn't resist her even if he tried. Suddenly both mercenaries heard shouting and cheering nearby, confused by the noise they went over to investigate what was all the shouting about. When they found the others they were all surrounding two figures that looked like they were fighting, and it was Soldier and Pharah. Both Engie and Symmetra were alarmed and ran over to them, Engie stopped next to Heavy and Medic and demanded an explanation of why they weren't doing anything about it.
Heavy: Soldier challenge soldier girl to fist fight, after soldier girl called him weak. Now they fight to prove which is stronger.
Medic: But zhere is nothing to vworry about my friend, Mercy and I vwill heal zhem afterwards. Now vwhere vwere vwe? Oh yes…MAKE HER BLEED!
Heavy: CRUSH HER BONES!
All the mercenaries cheered for Soldier while the agents cheered for Pharah, and even the agents were shouting things that were very gory, all except for Solder 76 and Winston since they just arrived and couldn't tell what was happening. Pharah blocked Soldier's punches and delivered to hard blows to the head, Soldier backed away and went defensive mode, blocking her attacks the best way he could, after receiving another punch to the face he went berserk and charged at Pharah, delivering hard punches to her gut and head. With one hard punch he broke through blocks and gave a smashing blow to her head, giving her a nose bleed, but Soldier was still in rage and picked her up, putting her high in the air before slamming her back down to the earth. Soldier was now on top of giving her a beat down, but Pharah was able to reverse it and was now on top of him, beating his face to a bloody mess. What at first started as a fight till whoever knocks out the other, now turned to whoever dies first.
Winston: This fight is getting out of hand!
Soldier 76: Never seen Pharah like this before.
Engineer: Hell I fought Soldier a few times but we never went this far.
Soldier was taking quite a beating from Pharah, he tried delivering another punch to Pharah but she grabbed his arm and twisted it, Soldier let out a pained cry as Pharah dislocated right arm. Pharah was about to continue her attack but realized what she just did and froze, never has she fought with such anger and without any thought of mercy, but she was knocked out of her shock when Soldier used his other arm and punched her in the face, knocking her off of him. Pharah was now on lying on her back and looked up at Soldier as he now stood in front of her, he grabbed onto his dislocated arm before manually putting it back to place, resulting some sounds of bones connecting. Pharah grimaced at Soldier of how he did it without even flinching.
"He has very high pain tolerance, most men wouldn't be able to do that." Pharah thought.
Soldier: If you thought dislocating my arm would help you it wouldn't! Even if you dislocated both my arms I would've resort to kicking and headbutting!
Soldier 76: geez this guy is insane…
Soldier looked over to where that voice came from and saw another agent from the future, not only that but he also spotted a gorilla wearing glasses and is in white armor. Soldier tilted his helmet upwards so he could see clearly and his vision was correct, Pharah looked to where Soldier was looking and was relieved to see 76 and Winston.
Soldier: Engineer, who are these two?
Engineer: Two more agents from the future, this man is Soldier 76 and this is Winston.
Winston: Hello.
Soldier 76: Hey.
Soldier didn't care about the name Winston, but Soldier 76?
Soldier: Soldier 76? While I am glad to finally meet a male soldier from the future, your name partially steals my name. And what's with the number 76? What is there some sorta ranking system over there? Well they're right about one thing, me being the number one soldier!
Soldier 76: And your name is?
Soldier: I am Soldier! The best and deadliest soldier you'd ever come across in the battlefield! And even if you do come across me! You'd be already a dead man!
Soldier 76: Would you quite down a bit? Getting a headache over here.
Soldier: Negative! I must always talk loud and with authority! If you don't like it you could shove your head in another man's ass!
Soldier 76: Engie…
Engineer: I know 76, but that's the way he is. You'll get use to it after awhile. Soldier, I think that's enough fighting between you two.
Soldier rolled his eyes before mumbling some curses under his breath, but he suppose he would've won the fight, still…Pharah sure deserves some credit. Seeing that Pharah was on the ground he grabbed onto her arm and pulled her up, further more surprising her with what he said after.
Soldier: Good fight, you're the first woman I have ever fought in a fist fight, let alone the only one to actually bring up a challenge! Nice work!
Soldier gave a small grin and patted her on the shoulder, confusing the hell out of Pharah, first he is acting all tough and strong, and now he is acting nice towards her, what is the meaning of this mood swing? Before she could bring up a word to say to Soldier he had turned around and walked away, while Medic heals him with his Medigun.
Mercy: That was quite unexpected.
Mercy came over to Pharah's aid and began to heal her, Pharah didn't respond as she watched Soldier walk away.
Engineer: Ahh I'm sorry Winston and 76. This wasn't how I wanted to introduce the other mercs.
Scout: Actually I thought it was a perfect way to introduce them.
Engineer: Scout how in the world do you think that was a proper way to introduce them?
Scout: Come on Engie, when we're fighting, we tend to get wild. Us cheering like a bunch of maniacs was showed that, we're pretty good at fighting, Soldier showed that, annnnnd well uh…yeah that basically sums us up. We are deadly and wild mercenaries.
Before Engie could say anything Spy came in.
Spy: Ugh Scout please, not all of us are like wild apes. Pardon me Winston.
Winston: None taken Spy, I've learned little about you in the files I read but from what I have discovered is that you could disguise as other people, mimicking their voices perfectly and could turn invisible.
Spy: Mmm you've certainly done your homework, but you missed two things, I am capable of sneaking behind the enemy and with one quick attack to the back, I can take their lives away. I am also able to take down sentry turrets, dispencers, and teleporters similar to Engineer's design with my special device.
Spy held out his sapper for Winston to see before putting it away in his suit.
Soldier 76: So you're a support kind of class? You take down sentries for your teammates to get through, while killing the enemies and disguising as them, making the enemies paranoid and have them concentrate on you while your allies take them out.
Spy: That's…surprisingly accurate Soldier 76.
Soldier 76: I have my ways of getting to know one's priorities and the results. You play a big role in this group you're in.
Spy: Yes but like me, the others also have a role, it is important that we all work on our priorities since we depend on each other.
Engineer: Ain't that the truth, if one of us so much as to fail at their job, we all pay the price. So Winston, 76, since you've already met me and Scout, also Soldier and Spy, how about Spy introduces the rest of the crew?
Winston: That'd be alright but I believe I have also met your Sniper. We saw he and Amelie near the van and they were about to k-
Soldier 76: KILL! An animal, I think they were preparing it for breakfast from what I've heard Sniper said.
Scout: Hey, Sniper and Amelie, what's taking them so long anyway?
Symmetra: That is a good question, with the vehicle they have.
Engineer: You'd think they would've been here by now.
Tracer: No worries love, there they are!
Tracer pointed the way and spotted Sniper's van driving towards them.
Heavy: It is about time, Heavy was about to go hunting himself.
Sniper's van slowed down to a complete stop and then hopped out of the driver seat was Amelie, shockingly wearing Sniper's hat.
Engineer: Amelie…why are you wearing…Sniper's hat?
Amelie: Because I can.
Amelie said with a smirk before readjusting the hat, then from the back door of Sniper's van came out Sniper, carrying a skinned corpse of a rain deer.
Sniper: Oi Amelie! Have you seen my hat? I think I might have left it in th-never mind I found it.
Sniper walked over to Amelie squinting his eyes at her as she hid his hat behind her.
Sniper: Having fun with me hat eh?
Amelie: Your hat? I don't have it.
Amelie said innocently, Sniper wasn't buying it.
Sniper: Uh huh sure. Heavy, sorry it took me awhile mate but we had trouble finding our breakfast.
Heavy: Hmm not sure if one deer is enough, we have big group now, but we will see.
Heavy took it the deer from Sniper's hands and headed to the campfire spot to cook it.
Sniper: Amelie my hat.
Amelie stayed silent and gave Sniper a playful grin.
Sniper: Bloody hell Amelie now you're just messing with me, give it now.
Amelie sighed with defeat and held out his hat, Sniper grabbed it before placing it back to its rightful spot. Meanwhile the agents including Engie and Scout looked at Amelie, completely flabbergasted from what they saw, never had they ever seen Amelie like this before, It's like as if this Sniper is changing her. Amelie felt all their stares and looked back at them, turning back to her normal self.
Amelie: What are you looking at?
Amelie then walked away, and so did the others as they went back to their own business, but still not forgetting of how Amelie was acting towards Sniper. Mei was feeling uneasy of how Amelie was, the fact that she gave a playful smile made her spine shiver, she began to over to Pyro as he was sitting criss cross on the floor playing with something.
Mei: Hi Pyro, what are you doing?
Pyro turned to Mei and showed her two doll versions of him, one being a devil like version, and the other being an angel like version.
Mei: Oh you're playing with your dolls? Huh these dolls look a lot like you.
Pyro: Mmphmph.
Pyro nodded his head before continuing to play with them, Mei sat near him with curiosity in her mind. Why was this fire maniac playing like a 3 year old child? Is it because he's really bored?
Mei: May I play with one?
Pyro looked at her and took a moment to think before handing her the angel like doll.
Mei: Thank you Pyro.
Both Mei and Pyro played with the dolls for a bit, she did her best to make her doll walk while Pyro had his doll use its little pitchfork. It felt awkward to Mei how she was playing with Pyro, it's like as if she was actually playing with a child. Yet it also feels nice to be playing with him, he seems to enjoy the company, plus the extra hand, he now had his doll next her doll, trying to have them interact with each other. Pyro even began to make some grumpy mumbling sounds, trying to mimic his dolls voice, making Mei giggle and she tried voice her doll too.
Mei: You know Pyro, when I first saw you, you were very intimidating. But now that I got to know you, you seem like a really nice guy.
Pyro nodded his head and spelled of the word "Friend" using sign language. Mei smiled at Pyro before nodding back at him.
Mei: Yes Pyro, we're friends.
Pyro: Mph mph!
Pyro held out his hand high for a high five, Mei laughed before giving Pyro a big high five, then both continued to play together. Back in the warehouse Medic and Mercy were having a discussion about their healing device.
Medic: Your invention is almost exactly as my main device, the only thing different about yours is that your caduceus staff can also buff your patient's attack. Plus you have said you could revive multiple people at once yes?
Mercy: Yes, and I don't mean to brag but, with my damage buffs I could make enemies life painful.
Medic: Ha! No need to worry about bragging Mercy, vwe are talking about our inventions for a reason right? Vwhile healing is part of my job, it isn't as satisfying as ze hurting. Vwhich is vwhy I vwill show you my second favorite invention. Excuse me for a moment.
Medic turned around from Mercy and began to look into his suit, Mercy tilted her head curiously as she watched him fiddle around with his suit, next thing saw was him tossing strange looking items away.
Medic: Nein, nixda, das will ich nicht...
Medic paused at the ubersaw weapon, thinking of showing it to Mercy.
Medic: …Vielleicht nachstes mal.
Medic put his ubersaw away for later but was startled when Archimedes popped out of nowhere from his suit.
Medic: AHH!
Mercy: What is it!?
Mercy turned Medic around to see what he screamed for and saw two things, one being a bird taking shelter in Medic's coat, the other being Medic's hairy and muscular chest. Mercy turned red in seconds.
Medic: Archimedes! Have you been zhere ze whole time?
Archimedes cooed in response before flying out and landing on his head.
Medic: Argh! I have been looking for you for so long and you vwere here ze entire time! I vwill have a talk with you later. Errr Mercy? You alright?
Mercy didn't respond as she was too busy staring at his chest, completely mesmerized by it until Medic buttoned shirt back on, once it was out of her sight she was back to normal.
Mercy: uh um what did you say?
Medic: I said are you alright, you vwere very red and looked like you vwere being controlled by something. But you seem to be fine now.
Mercy: Oh yes im fine I just…lost myself for a second.
Medic: Mmm interesting. Anyway here's vwhat I was talking about.
Medic showed Mercy the device which was known as the kritzkrieg.
Medic: My kritzkrieg! This device also allows me to heal my patients but when it is ready to activate charge, hehehehe it allows my patient to fire critical shots towards our enemies, they'll be dead in seconds! HAHAHAHA!
Mercy was impressed with the device but was creeped out by Medic's insane laughter, Mercy assumed he just loves his inventions. But as they continued to talk, Mercy could not get her mind off of the picture of Medic's hairy chest. Meanwhile outside the warehouse, Pharah was walking around minding her own business until she saw Soldier all by himself. He was busying himself by doing pushups, and Pharah would have to admit he's doing them in quite a fast rate, Pharah was about to walk away but something in her mind told her to go talk to him.
"I know this will probably not end well but I should go talk to him anyway, might as well since I will be with the group for awhile." Pharah thought before deciding to go and talk to him.
As she approached him Soldier was doing his 66th pushup, but he froze when he felt a shadow go over him, he knew that meant someone was next to him. Doing one last pushup, he used all strength to push him back up to standing position, normally he would of expected to see Engineer or Demoman or any of his co-workers, but what he saw was Pharah standing there next to him, he'll have to admit he was surprised. Not sure how to start her conversation, she picked to say his name as a way to greet him.
Pharah: Soldier…
Soldier: Pharoah…
Pharah was annoyed already by Soldier just by him calling her pharaoh, she was about to yell at him but held it in.
Pharah: Are you calling me that purpose?
Soldier: Yes, that is your name right?
Pharah: Soldier you are mistaken, my name is Pharah, not pharaoh.
Soldier: Oh Pharah…hmm must have something in my ears.
Soldier stuck a finger in his ear to clear it and casually flicked away the earwax despite Pharah's disgust of it.
Soldier: So Pharah, you seem to know who I am in this time, but who are you? What are you known as in the future?
Pharah: I am glad you asked Soldier, I am known as Captain Pharah. A squad leader, occupation: Security Chief. But if you're asking of my name, it is Fareeha Amari.
Soldier: Farehi?
Pharah: Fareeha.
Soldier: Fairy.
Pharah: Fareeha.
Soldier: Feree.
Pharah: Or you could just call me Pharah.
Soldier: Fareeha! Did I say it right?
Pharah: Yes, yes you did.
Soldier: Ha! No name is too complicated for me!
"You messed up 3 times before you finally said it correctly." Pharah thought.
Pharah: Now that you know my name, may I know yours?
Soldier: Soldier.
Pharah: No I meant your real name.
Soldier was a little confused at this, he thought Soldier was his real name, that is until he regained memory of his true name. Jane Doe. He doesn't ever preferred to be called that, so Soldier was what he stuck with. He doesn't like saying it, nor does he like anyone else saying it. Therefore he chose not to say it.
Soldier: It's Soldier. It's what everyone else calls me and I was called that for many years, so Soldier is my name. I'd appreciate it if we change subject.
Pharah: Ok…
Pharah felt confused about Soldier's response, it's impossible for Soldier to be his name, yet for some reasons he doesn't wish to tell. Pharah thought hard about this until she remembered something a long time ago.
*Flashback*
"His name is Jane D-"
*End Flashback*
Soldier: You fought well when we first met.
Pharah: Huh?
Soldier: When we first met, you know not a lot of people who fight me would come out alive, or at least not injured. The chances of anyone who fights me to win, the odds are not in their favor.
Pharah: So are you saying I'm lucky to still be alive?
Soldier: It was not luck, it was skill that saved you, while I probably am more experienced than you when it comes to rocket launchers, you had your advantages and used them. Like that jetpack of yours, you had great maneuver abilities. But knowing that you're an ally and not an enemy, kinda am glad that I didn't manage to kill you.
Pharah: Well, you put quite a fight too, your aiming skills is quite impressive. You shot me out of the sky with that second rocket.
Soldier: It was easy predicting where you were going, and I know how fast my rocket goes. So I aimed and fired.
Pharah: But as we fought you did something unbelievably dangerous.
Soldier: I do a lot of things that are dangerous so you'll have to be specific.
Pharah: You launched yourself upwards using your own rocket blasts! Do you realize that could have killed you?
Soldier: It's called rocket jumping sweetheart.
Pharah raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms, "Rocket jumping he says, that sounds as dangerous as it is in action. But did he really just call me a sweetheart?"
Soldier: And it won't kill me as long as I do it correctly. I may be known as a Soldier but I am also known as Rocket man! I can travel through the battlefield faster than Scout with my rocket jumping skills! Maybe even faster than that jetpack you've got!
Pharah gave a smirk and rolled her eyes, obviously doubting it, Soldier sensed it.
Soldier: If you don't believe me, we can have our own little race to see who's faster.
Pharah: Soldier, there is no way your rocket jumping is faster than my jetpack, plus you'll probably kill yourself before you even reach the finish line.
Soldier: Not when I have these boots equipped.
Pharah looked down to see his boots and spot metal plating covering the bottom part of his boots. Soldier chuckled before tapping his heels together making a "ding ding" noise.
Soldier: Gunboats, they make rocket jumping hell of a lot less painful.
Soldier gave off a confident grin as he crossed his arms, he seemed really proud of himself. Despite how crazy he was and how annoying he could be, Pharah couldn't help but chuckle lightly at him. But then another question came up in mind.
Pharah: So you say your name is Soldier and you claim to be a soldier, but instead of joining this job you're in, how come you didn't join the army?
Soldier's grin was wiped off his face and was replaced with a disappointed and angry look.
Soldier: I tried to.
Soldier turned and began to walk, taking his rocket launcher with him, Pharah followed him as he continued.
Soldier: During World War 2 I tried to sign up to join the battle, but was rejected by the military branches, they claimed my fighting tactics to be insane and made me unfit to join military, but that didn't stop me. I bought myself a ticket and went to Europe where the action took place, and after some time I managed to arrive at Poland where I started my Nazi killing spree! Using the many weapons I had equipped to kill them all, but my most favorite weapon of them all was the one and only.
Soldier grinned as he petted his rocket launcher, while Pharah just stood there in shock, while she shouldn't be surprised that he was rejected by one military branch but to know that he was rejected by all of them was very surprising. Not only that but the fact that he went to Europe and entered Poland, fought and killed many Nazi's on his own, that's something.
Soldier: But the Nazi killing spree was over once I heard that World War 2 was over, and later on I reward myself medals made by me!
Soldier showed Pharah his medals before putting them away, he released a sigh before shaking his head.
Soldier: But it doesn't feel right, awarding myself medals instead of being given medals.
Pharah suddenly felt bad for him, yes his tactics were not very good but it does surely get the job done, all he wanted to do was to participate in the fight yet was rejected to do so. But he was so determined that he went to the war zone and fought on his own, he deserves a medal, not a made up medal, a REAL one.
Pharah: I have to say Soldier, that was very brave of you to go to the battle on your own.
Soldier: I bleed for war Pharah, I fight for America! Nothing was gonna stop me from entering it. And you may think of me as a lunatic, but if you see things from my perspective, I'm just one dedicated soldier.
Pharah now had a very different perspective of Soldier, she almost admires his bravery and his will to fight. But her thoughts about him were interrupted when he suddenly turned his head towards the forest, his face turned into a serious expression, curious got to her and she tried asking him what was wrong, but Soldier shushed her before trying to listen for what he heard. After hearing the noise again his grip on the rocket launcher tightened.
Soldier: They're here…
Pharah: Who's here?
Soldier: Robots.
Pharah: Huh?
Soldier: Run to the others and tell them to get ready for the fight of their lives! And don't bother putting on that armor of yours it'll take too long, just get your rocket launcher.
Pharah: But-
Soldier shoved his rear end towards her direction and pointed at it.
Soldier: No butts! Now go!
Pharah ran towards the others as Soldier aimed his rocket launcher to the trees, waiting for them to show up. Pharah came running in to the camp where the others were.
Pharah: Everyone get ready! Soldier said that there are robots here!
All the mercenaries were alarmed at this, including Tracer, Amelie, Mei, and Symmetra, and they immediately went for their weapons. As Engineer and Scout got ready they were stopped by Symmetra and Tracer.
Symmetra: I don't care what you say Engie but I am GOING to help you!
Tracer: You said that right luv, we're in this fight whether you like it or not! You ain't making us stay hiding in this one!
Engineer and Scout looked at each other before looking back at the two agents.
Engineer: Does it look like I'm stopping you? We need all the help we can get so whether YOU like it or not, you're gonna fight with us.
Scout: Yeah! So get ya fancy futuristic weapons out and help us!
The two agents were a little surprised by the two mercenaries response, Engie and Scout smirked at their girlfriends before continuing to get ready. Soldier stood ready for a fight, but he began to see movement in the forest, he saw robots moving about in the trees yet for some reasons they aren't attacking, but then he realized they were surrounding the camp. Soldier had a bad feeling about this, he didn't like the position they were in, from the robots perspective it'll be like shooting fish in a barrel. Engineer came out running to Soldier with Symmetra running behind him.
Engineer: Soldier where are they?
Soldier: They're surrounding the camp, they'll be shooting at us from all angles! Son of a bitch!
Soldier rocket jumped to the air before shooting 3 rockets towards the trees where the robots hid, but then those 3 rockets exploded in mid air suddenly, something or somebody shot them down. Then a figure came walking out of the forest slowly, as it got closer Engineer recognized it to be a lady. But something was awfully familiar about this lady. She had a weird metal device covering half the top of her head, the metal device provided a red scope for her left eye and she had a metallic arm similar to Engie's design, she also wore a pair of clothes that seem very familiar. Engineer also noticed there were to devices attached to her legs, he felt unsure whether it was for protection or for advancement. To top that off she held something that seems to be some sorta weapon, it's almost glowing with power as she held it. She then stopped walking towards them, still having some distance between them, she then spoke.
"I know you have my targets there." She said. Engineer's eyes widened, he recognized that voice.
"There's no way…" Engie thought.
"And if you hadn't have already guessed we have this area surrounded, and if you don't give them to me, you will all die." She said.
Soldier: I have no idea who you're targets are! And I have absolutely no idea who you are! But you'll not be getting anything from us!
"We never found her body…could it be?" Engie thought.
"Your move." She said.
"It's Bell…"
