Guest: First of all, stop whining about the class. Now let me explain. How Tetsuya got his hands on Vex tech is supposed to be a "Noodle Incident."(If you don't know what that is, check TV tropes.) Second, I picked I am Bread because why not. Third, I should mention that Tet is a little too cocky for his own good; when he saw Venus uncolonized, he assumed that the inhabitants of this universe couldn't detect him. I also mentioned that this is my first fanfic. Thank you for your time.
The-pomftato932: Don't worry, man! Criticism like yours is good! I admit that my writing skills are not perfect, so I could use some touch-ups here and there. Hope to see you again in this story!
By the way, the base that the heroes are at is Watchpoint: Gibraltar.

The Next Day...
Angela Ziegler, otherwise known as Mercy, stopped next to an ever-increasing pile of broken computers and sighed. "Hana, you can't just go and smash a computer every time you get angry. It has taken quite a toll on funds these past few weeks. I'm not sure we can-"
Angela was suddenly cut off by a rather... colorful stream of Korean, followed by pieces of a shattered game disc flying out the door. Angela peeked inside, and saw Hana sitting amongst a large pile of empty chip bags and dry beverage bottles and cans. Hana herself was wearing a rather large frown, and looked like she hadn't slept in days. "Hana, please tell me that you didn't stay up all night." Hana only turned her head and glared at Angela. Unfazed,she continued, "And you cannot live among this... filth. Trust me, I am a doctor, and I know what is good for you." Hana's gaze turned harder. "As your superior, I am ordering you to go outside for no less than two hours." When Hana didn't move, Angela said, "NOW." Hana then got up from her sitting position and left the room, grumbling all the while. What happened to that sweet girl, I wonder? Angela thought to herself as she stepped outside.
Her thoughts were unexpectedly interrupted when she got a call from Winston. "Angela? I need you in the command room. Some of the others are already here." Winston said over the line.
"Whatever for?" Angela replied.
"I'll explain when the rest are here." Winston said, before terminating the call. Angela, wondering what was going on, headed over to the command room.
When Angela arrived, she saw Morrison, Lena, the Shimada brothers, and Winston. "What's going on?" Lena asked.
"Yesterday, at roughly 2300 hours, what appeared to be an alien vessel entered our atmosphere." Athena announced. On the table before them, a rotating image of the unknown ship appeared. "I have been tracking the craft, and it has landed at an unspecified location in Chile." Athena continued.
"I need a team to track down that craft and learn as much as you can about it, including the pilot, if possible." Winston said. "Do NOT engage. Avoid combat as much as possible."
"Why us?" Lena asked.
"Most of you are recon specialists, and you're going to need a medic. Speaking of which, Angela, do not bring the Valkyrie suit." Winston replied. Angela nodded. "You understand that this is possible first contact, correct?" Winston said to all. The group nodded. "Okay, move out."

Several Days Later...
Lena was bored. They had been looking for this alien craft for two weeks now, and they still hadn't found it. They had been running around Chile, asking the locals and checking in with HQ. The number of times they had come across false positives was phenomenal. No matter what they did, they STILL hadn't found anything. Lena was fairly sure that Athena had glitched and not found anything. Either that, or Winston sent them on a wild goose chase. Either way, she was not happy.
"Hey, it's Winston." A voice said over the comms. "You found anything yet?"
"No!" Lena replied, "It's been two weeks! We haven't found anything! I'm pretty sure that Athena glitched."
"She didn't, trust me. Also, she's finally tracked down the ship. It landed somewhere in the Valvidian forest." Winston replied.
"Really? Okay, then!" Lena said, before contacting the others. A few moments later, they were all back at the apartment.
"So... The Valvidian Forest." Angela said. She hadn't been expecting that an alien would have a knowledge of where to hide on this planet.
"Okay, we all know what to do, right?" Morrison asked. The others nodded. "Good. We need to find where that ship is. If Athena's intel is correct, we're likely going to be staking out in that forest. Bring your survival gear." The group nodded again. "Now for roles. Lena, you are taking the role of Pathfinder. Hanzo, provide cover fire if needed. Genji, go with Tracer. Angela, you're with me."
Genji spoke up. "What must we do upon seeing anything?"
"Report back to us immediately. Bring us all there, and we will approach."
"Morrison, what are we doing?" Angela said.
"What we're going to do is find areas suitable to set up camp and plant a beacon trail behind us so that we can find our way out of the forest." Angela nodded. "Okay, let's move it, people!"
After finding that the Last City did not exist here, Tetsuya and his Ghost were forced to touch down in the middle of a forest because they were detected, as Ghost was none too happy to find out. Good thing the Jumpship also acted as a one-person mobile home if needed. They had been staying in the same spot for two weeks, and now, Tetsuya was bored stiff.
"Hey, I managed to pull some information about where we are." Tetsuya glanced at Ghost. "I suggest taking a look." Tetsuya then began reading about the wars, the Omnic crisis, Talon, and a great many other bits of information.
"Hold on... Who is "Overwatch?" Tetsuya asked after seeing the name.
"Far as I can tell, it's a peacekeeping organization that was shut down years ago." Ghost replied. "However, it seems that the organization has made an unsanctioned return, taking down Talon attacks. However, I think that's our best bet at finding a place to stay. So- Hold up, picking up movement readings. It looks like five humans are nearby."
Tetsuya blinked. "Why don't we go say hello to our new visitors?" he said.
"Yeah, sure. Let's go." Ghost replied.
After hopping out of the ship, Tetsuya and Ghost followed the five people around, without them knowing. However, they noticed that the group was getting steadily closer to the jumpship. "Okay, we can't let them find out about this thing. Do something!" he whispered urgently.
"I don't know what to do, how about you try?" Ghost replied. Tetsuya groaned, before running after the group to catch up with them.
After reaching them, he found that they were sitting in a clearing, talking. "Ghost, helmet and Hawkmoon. Now." Tetsuya whispered. After feeling the familiar grip of the weapon in his hand. Tetsuya jumped down and pointed the weapon at the group. "Okay, NOBODY MOVE! Who are you?"

"I'm picking up readings," Genji said over comms.
"Good, we'll meet at your location." Morrison replied.
After the group had gathered, they began to think about what they should do, and a plan of action. "So, should we run in, guns blazing?" Lena asked.
"No. Stealth is of utmost importance." Morrison replied.
"I agree. We must stay hidden." Hanzo said.
The group was about to stand up and head towards the direction of the readings before what appeared to be an Omnic leaped down from a nearby tree and pointed a black-and-white revolver decorated with feathers at them, shouting, "Okay, NOBODY MOVE! Who are you?"
"Weapons free!" Morrison shouted. The intruder then found a sword, three pistols, a bow and arrow, and an assault rifle pointed at him. The Omnic dodged most of the incoming fire before firing his weapon at Morrison. Morrison dove out of the way, causing the shot to blow a massive hole in a nearby tree. "All of you, do NOT get hit by the hostile's shots!" Morrison communicated to the rest of the team. "All aim at him and fire on my mark. 3, 2, 1, mark!" The attacker was cornered. After he took some heavy damage, he ran off, shortly before the alien vessel lifted off and flew away. The group stood dumbfounded before Morrison contacted HQ and said, "Winston, I think we found our pilot..."
Tetsuya was currently pulling several shuriken out of his armor. "Jeez. Ask for some answers, and get a shitstorm of bullets sent your way." Tetsuya grumbled. Ghost had set the ship on autopilot, so they were currently drifting aimlessly in the atmosphere. "Do you even know where we're going?" Tetsuya asked.
"No, I don't." Ghost replied, "However, our best bet is to head towards Watchpoint Gibraltar. They say the base has been abandoned for a while, and it could make a good temporary home. I'm turning on stealth mode, though, so nobody will see us. Got it?"
"Agreed." Tetsuya said. The ship then flew towards Gibraltar, not knowing what awaited them.

"So, you found the pilot, then, an Omnic?" Winston said to the group.
"Yes, we did. I don't think he likes us, though." Tracer said, "Definitely hostile."
"Who shot first?" Winston asked.
"We did. Him firing at us was likely a tactic of self-preservation." Angela said.
"If I were in the same situation, I would have acted in a similar manner." Hanzo said.
"So... Not hostile, then."
"The ship has just dropped off the radar, Winston. All sensors are picking up no readings. I have applied anti-stealth measures, and yet nothing appears. The ship is likely hundreds of years ahead of our current technology. I regard him with caution." Athena said.
"What was his last known location?" Morrison said.
"The vessel's last known location was the coordinates -14,599, -28,6731." Athena replied. "Judging by his trajectory, it appears that he is headed for Gibraltar. I suggest taking defensive measures in case of attack."
"You do that, Athena." Winston said. "Dismissed!"
Angela, after that, went to go check on Hana. After getting out of her room, Hana was doing much better, and had returned to her original self. "So, Hana, glad to see that you're doing better! Now get some rest." Angela said. "And NO games!"
Ooh, Tetsuya is headed to Watchpoint: Gibraltar! I wonder what will happen upon arrival?
