Overwatch: Last Stand
Chapter 6: King's Row
At night, Melody, Tracer and their allies have arrived in King's Row in London. It was filled with Omnics.
"Melody," Widowmaker contacts her via HW Armband.
"Amelie. Come in."
"I am located on top of the building next to you."
Melody looked up. "I see you."
"What's our plan?" Tracer asked.
"I have Pharah in the air right now."
"Melody, this is Pharah. Be careful. The Omnic do not know you have arrived. Intel from Winston reports of a gauntlet said to belong to Doomfist."
"Doomfist?"
"Akande Ogundimu from Nigeria."
"A fellow African..."
"Yes. He's also one of the members of Talon. The name Doomfist was taken by him from his mentor. Like you, he's a expert martial artist as well. According to my mother, he is on his way to locate the gauntlet. Your mission is to secure the gauntlet without detection. If something goes wrong, I will attack the Omnic and give you time to complete your mission."
"Affirmative. Where is the gauntlet?"
"Inside a place called the Meridian. It is a theater where Widowmaker assassinated Tekhartha Mondatta, leader of the Shambali. Widowmaker and I have you covered from the air."
"Copy. We're moving now."
Melody, Tracer, Torbjorn, D'Va and Lucio infiltrated the Meridian and made their way into the theater.
"Melody," Pharah contacts her. "I cannot contact you anymore. Some people are using EMP devices to disable the Omnic."
Pharah broke off contact as the team proceeded. They found the gauntlet, but they also found Doomfist beating them to it.
"Greetings. If you are here for the gauntlet, you are too late. You must be the great Melody Jones."
"Akande. So you are Doomfist. I can definitely see why."
"I have learned much from you. You are not from this world, yet you have come here after Sombra betrayed you and your father."
"You seem to know much about me."
"And your combat tactics as well, but I am more interested in seeing how well you fare, considering your war in Uganda, one that almost had you killed."
"A challenge?"
"An observation.' Doomfist goes into his stance. "Prepare yourself!"
Melody battles Doomfist. She needed to be careful as that gauntlet can do some serious damage. Doomfist has five special attacks: Hand Cannon, which he fires shotgun shells, Seismic Slam, where he leaps into the air and slams his fist on the ground, Rising Uppercut knocks opponents into the air, Rocket Punch has him charging and launching his fist in a powerful punch. And Meteor Strike is the same as the Seismic Slam but I think he uses his body to land it. Melody was impressed with his athletic ability, as it could very well match hers. However, Doomfist tried his Rocket Punch but Melody somersaulted away before the punch connected. Doomfist tried a roundhouse but Melody countered, tripped him up and shattered his kneebone. Doomfist made one last attempt at killing Melody with a hand cannon but Melody somersaulted in front and removed the gauntlet at the same time.
"Nice try, Akande. But future enhancements are no substitute to combat skill."
"I underestimated you, it seems. But we will meet again."
After retrieving the gauntlet, Melody and her team saw the Omnics already disposed of.
"Well done, Melody."
"All in the day's work."
