With the virus implanted, Sombra could see what the Bastion Unit sees. So far, she's only seen a bird, a garden, and a lot of playing with that Korean girl. She sighed and laid limb on her chair. 'This Bastion Unit is a strange one. All of this doesn't make sense with how it managed to defeat Stealth.' She thought. She put her chin in her left hand, using her free one to see through the Unit's archives. While the virus allow her to watch, she can't do anything more than that. If she does, then the Unit's firewall would delete the virus. The sound of the door moving shook her from her thoughts. Looking to the side, she saw Moira entering her room.
"How is your research, Sombra dear?" She asked. Sombra put both of her arms in the air, stretching her back and arms.
"Not so good. So far, I've only seen birds, flowers and video games." She said.
"Video games? Why would a Bastion Unit, a war machine, play 'Video Games'?" Asked Moira.
"I don't know. It seems to have a bond to that Korean girl." Sombra then made appear a window on the screen, showing Hana's file.
"Hana Song, Mech Pilot and actress. She's formerly a member of South Korean's Mobile Exo-Force and a Gamer. She was recruited by the army because of her fast reflexes. She protects her home land, and even once she almost loose her life in a bike race."
"Interesting. What is the story of Miss Song and the Unit?" Sombra typed on her keyboard.
"Apparently, Torbjörn Lindholm found the Unit, but they had to get separated. Lindholm wanted to study why the Unit wasn't following its battle programming. Before he could do that, the cops arrived to his home, asking questions. Lindholm managed to get the Unit away, fearing that when it activates it's programming, hell would come not only to the cops, but fro his family as well. The Unit got onboard a boat that was going to SK. It just arrived when a massive wave of Omnic tried to attack the city. Song and her friends engaged the Omnics, but they weren't expecting them to learn from the last time they fought them. Getting caught in the fire, Song forced her friends to pull back as she stayed behind. That is when the Unit appeared and they started a friendship. The Unit repaired the MEKA and they then made their way back to the City's Base. When they arrived, both of them, along with Song's friends, defeated the wave, saving the City. The rest is just boring and doesn't have any relevance."
"Sombra, dear. Every piece of information is useful. Now tell me, is there anything more?"
"Not much. The rest is about Wilhelm and Ziegler going to SK to recruit Song, but then they found as well about the Unit. The president managed to convince them about it being of help. And he actually succeeded. The pair took both of them to their base on Gibraltar. And it was on that night that we attacked. And the rest is history for us and for Overwatch."
"Interesting. Well, I may know what moves the Unit, but I'd like to see it for myself." Said Moria.
"What do you have in mind?" At that, Moira smiled.
"You'll see."
They returned to the ship, with Lena and Ana informing the government about Talon attacking Kings Row. At first, they weren't very convincing, but when Bastion showed them his memories, they said that they'd think about more security measures. After that, they made their way back to the base, where Bastion and Hana spent the afternoon playing games, helping improving the garden, then they played together again. After that, night fell and Hana fell asleep again on her chair. Gently, Bastion took away from her ears her headphones and gently carried her to her bed. Bastion put the covers up to her neck and left her room to go to his own.
The next day, everyone was called to a meeting. A new member was coming to the organization. But what shocked the most, was that it was an ex-Talon agent. According to Winston and Jack, he left Talon because the missions he was involved in suddenly turned brutal and with civilian casualties. He also claims that he wants to help the world to turn it into a better one. And with Talon trying to create a war, and because he just knows too much, he decided to join Overwatch.
"I'm excited to meet this new agent!" Said Hana.
"Me too. And with his knowledge about Talon, he's just a crucial member to end this." Said Winston.
"But Winston, what if he's a Talon spy?" Said a concerned Angela.
"That is true, Winston." Ana agreed.
"I have thought of that, too. But I've seen what he's done. And he even showed me some IDs from some Talon agents that were sent to eliminate him. I can't tell that he would be a spy, but with his help, and the information that he's willing to share with us, he can be a good help to our cause."
"Well, if he turned to be a double agent, then he'll have hell to pay. Volskaya isn't spending money helping Overwatch to be destroyed from the inside." Said Zarya.
"Beep boop twirp."
"My fellow Omnic says that he agrees with Miss Zarya." Said Zenyatta. Zarya only grunted, but said nothing.
"When he is supposed to arrive, Winston?" Asked Tracer.
"Oh! I like two or three hours. He's falling with McCree and Genji here. They went to get him." He answered.
"Well then. We should get him a welcome party!" Said Hana.
"Oh! You're on!" Cheered Lucio.
The meeting continued like that for half an hour until the members started to go to do their own chores. Winston and Hammond stayed on the room with Ana and Jack to talk about some important things of the UN. Bastion, Hana, Brigitte and Lucio went to the garden to think about the welcome party. Bastion only listening to their talk. Bastion couldn't but feel a bit jealous of them. Especially Lucio and Brigitte. They seemed to like Hana too much. Bastion shook his head. Now it wasn't the moment to think like that. Hana and him are just friends. Nothing more. Nothing less. After that, they went to the rest room to play some games until the new member arrives.
2 hours later, almost everyone was waiting for the ship to land. Bastion doesn't trust this new member that, according to his story, deserted from Talon. Even if his story is true, Bastion isn't very trusting to those that tried to kill his best friend and comrades. As the ship landed and opened its large door, Genji and McCree exited the ship with a soft black man, wearing a light blue armor with one sole glass on his left eye.
"Hello." He said.
"So you're the new member." Said a cheerful Lena, holding hands with Emily.
"Yeah. Jean-Baptiste Augustin. 36." He said.
"We've heard that you deserted from Talon." Said Emily. Baptiste nodded.
"It was nice at first. The payment was good and for the first time I got a taste of good life. The tasks were sipe enough, until they changed to a more fierce ones. Leaving civilians casualties and blood. I was disgusted by it. So decided to leave." He explained.
"We're glad that you decided to leave them. Your help would benefit us." Said Winston.
"If you don't mind asking, what's your role?" Asked Ana.
"Field medic. I can provide my teammates with a shield that won't allow them to get hurt, as well as heal them and improve their attack damage." She said.
"So, with your help, we won't have nothing to worry about." Said Hana. He turned to look at her.
"Yeah. No dying on my-" Baptiste silenced himself at the sight of Bastion standing near Hana. He then lifted his gun and aimed to him.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" Said Hana, standing in front of him and Bastion. Bastion didn't like his attitude, turning his optic red and aiming to Baptiste.
"They were the ones that destroyed my home an left me and other 30 million children orphan! How can one still working and why you have it here!" He said.
"Look, I know that you have troubles with Bastion, I get it. But Bastion here isn't like the ones that destroyed your home! In fact, he's saved my home once and Overwatch many times! He even saved the Omnics on Kings Row from Talon!" Hana said.
"You can't actually think of that!" Responded Baptiste. Before Hana could answer, Zarya walked to them.
"While is true that Bastion Units destroyed many places in the past, think that he's going to be your teammate at some point, even if you like it or not. So you better calm down, or I'll force you to do so before Bastion here decides to do something bad." She said. Baptiste took a deep breath after that and took away his gun. Bastion doing the same and changing his optic's color back to blue.
"Because I don't want to happen what did on my home, I'll accept that." He said. Hana sighed in relief.
"If you all stopped doing that, then we can proceed to continue with our business." Said Jack. Baptiste nodded and follows him, Winston and Ana to the main room.
"I understand what happened, and why he doesn't want to trust Bastion. But what's in the past is gone. I mean, shouldn't he moved forward already?" Said Hana.
"For some people is hard to move forward due to many things. Take Russia for example, Hana. They still don't trust Omnics, even if they prove them wrong." Angela then put a hand on Hana's shoulder. "The only thing we can do is to have patience with them, and do our best to understand them."
"But Zarya can get along with Bastion and Orisa and Zenyatta!" Hana countered.
"Only because she has no other choice Hana. Zarya arrived earlier than Orisa or my master or even Bastion." Answered Genji.
"They arrived after I did, little one. But I've leaned to tolerate him around the base, and during missions." Zarya said.
"Right now, Augustin needs time. Do you believe that you can give him that?" Said Angela. Hana looked to everyone in the room and sighed, then nodded.
"I think so." She said.
"Good. Let's head back to the main room." Angela said.
Bastion went to the garden. Everyone didn't mind about that. But Hana got worried about that anyway. They entered the main room and Baptiste was talking with Winston. They looked to them when they entered.
"Ah, Im glad you could join us. Baptiste was just about to tell us more about Talon." Winston said.
"Indeed. Talon's goal is to provoke a massive war again, making everyone to turn against each other. They tried to destroy Overwatch before so they could do it without anyone to interfere with it. They didn't count on you having a Bastion Unit." He said.
"Recruiting Bastion wasn't part of the plan when e went to South Korea to recruit Hana. He just happened to be there by the time we arrived." Said Angela.
"And that is why Talon didn't expect you to having it. They expected miss Song. That was a set back for them. Making them to rethink what to do about it."
"Yes, like making an Unit on their own." Hana said a bit irritated.
"Your Unit defeated the modern one, didn't it? Anyway, with that Unit, they can't start another Omnic Crisis as they want, for every time they try to start one, the Unit make them fail."
"So they have to either capture Bastion or destroy it. That's why they activated the payload earlier on Kings Row." Said Lucio.
"I didn't know about that, but yeah, they need to do either of those two things." Answered Baptiste.
"Well, leaving the topic of Talon for later, I'd like to see how yo perform in battle. We received a message from Numbani. They managed to track Talon's communications systems for a few seconds, hearing that Talon would attack the city soon." Said Jack.
"Efi's there! I must go!" Said Orisa.
"Okay, then Orisa will go with Baptiste. Brigitte and Torbjörn as well. And Junkrat and Hana." Said Jack.
"Count us in!" Said Brigitte.
"The Lindholm family will show how everything is done." Commented Torbjörn.
Junkrat giggled. "Tis's th' perfect toime to taste my news bombs!" He then laughed.
"I will do my best." Hana said.
"Very well then. Go and prepare to depart in three hours. Contact us when you arrive." They all nodded and then they went to get everything ready to depart.
