Paladins x Overwatch Chapter 15
Author note: If anyone is wondering what Vigil means, it has a direct connection to him. It can either mean vigilia (lat. For "Guardian") or vigilate (lat. for "clock").
Barik: Hey... heeeeyyyyy!
Fernando woke up from the screams of the dwarf. It was dark and he could barely see Barik.
Fernando: Is that you dwarf?
Barik: Get us out of here! This is the least you can do after you got us in here.
Still tired Fernandos hand searched the ground for his lance and shield.
Barik: They took all our stuff, including MY gold.
Fernando: It was- hey I hear something.
Fernando pressed one ear against the wall to listen. At the same moment a door opened on the side.
In the blinding light stood a soldier fully covered in black armor.
Talon soldier: I´m supposed to escort you.
Fernando: Who dares to keep me Imprisoned!? Answer me!
Talon soldier: No questions. Follow me quietly.
Barik: Stop it, blank-head.
Fernando: I´m not bending to the will of your schemes.
Talon soldier: Don´t move!
Fernando dashed at the soldier, slamming into him with all his weight. The soldier flew back into a wall. The other soldiers turned their attention to Fernando with their guns pointed at him. Barik followed him out of the ship and looked in the round.
Barik: You´ve done it now.
Mercy: Mr. Torvald?
Torvald: Yes, please come in.
Mercy opened the door to Trovalds hotel room. He was sitting at the desk and packing his bagpack with his books.
Torvald: How is it going?
Mercy: Why did you took all the blame for the spirit incident?
Torvald: That´s no big deal. It wouldn´t be good if people think you´re doing dangerous experiments with animals. For me it´s time to move on anyway.
Mercy: You´re leaving?
Torvald: I still have a lot to see in this world.
Mercy: I see. But what about all the reconstruction costs.
Torvald: Somebody had to do it. Besides, I kinda found out that gold is a lot more valuable around here.
Mercy: You just came here and told me about magic and dragons and gods and now you just want to go?
Torvald: I know it´s a lot to take in. But I´m a traveler. It´s nothing new for me.
Mercy: Then how did you get in this world?
Torvald: I really don´t know. I went through a bush and then on the other side I was standing in an alley in this world and the bush was gone behind me. I really can´t explain it.
Mercy leaned against the, staring at the ceiling deep in thoughts.
Mercy: How? Why? Why now?
2 days later
Torvald had left two days ago. Makoa withdrew to the coast to avoid contact with humans. Mercy walked on the sidewalk of the demolished streets late at night, Looking at the sky. After a short time she saw a light that didn´t belong to one of the countless stars. There was a person levitating high in the sky with a blue cape and silver hair. He was looking in to the stars but somehow felt someone was looking at him and tilted his head to look back at Mercy. They looked at each other for a short time from the distance, until the figure vanished in the dark sky like a dying star.
Jenos landed on a rooftop, looking down on the city.
Jenos: I know you´re there.
As he said it Seris appeared out of the shadows besides him.
Seris: What is the meaning of this?
Jenos tis is not my doing. The world as you know it is a steady moving realm. What you see here is a rare phenomena where this realm crosses path with another one on a metaphysical level and eventually on a physical level. Of course, an inferior to the death wouldn´t understand.
Seris: Hmpf, I´ll come back to that then the time has come.
Fernando ran through the crossfire trying to find an his weapon. The soldiers tried to hold him of but the gunfire did nothing to him. The one soldier backed away to dodge a flying body and bumped into someone behind him.
Doomfist: What are you doing here?
Soldier: Sir, the subjects are trying to escape. We need you to stop this immediately.
Doomfist looked over to the rampaging Fernando, who just knocked out another soldier with his bare hands.
Doomfist: Not yet.
Soldier: Sir...
Doomfist: I want to see how far he can get.
Zenyatta was meditating on a field. He could feel Makoas presence from far away. The power deep within him was strong yet so far away.
Genji: Master!
Zenyatta: Ah Genji. You made it.
Genji: I´m sorry for taking so long.
Zenyatta: Don´t worry. But don´t you want to introduce your new little friend to me.
Maeve: I´m not small and we are not friends.
Maeve crossed her arms and turned away from Zenyatta.
Genji: She is the one who stole your wallet master.
Genji put a hand on Maeves shoulder, who looked at Genji without turning around.
Genji: Don´t you want to say something?
Maeve: ...I´m sorry.
Zenyatta: I´ll forgive you. I hope Genji didn´t hurt you.
Genji: Right. Here is your wallet master.
Genji gave the wallet back to Zenyatta and he took it with a nod. The omnic opened it and took all the mony left in it and reached it out to Maeve.
Zenyatta: Here, you probably need it.
Maeve turned around to him and looked at the money. After a moment she took the money and looked up to Zenyatta.
Maeve: T-thank you.
Genji.: But master...
Zenyatta don´t worry, Genji. I dearly appreciate your efforts.
Zenyatta closed his wallet and siped over the picture in the transparent pocket. It showed him and Mondata sitting in the Shambali monastery.
Zenyatta: I really do.
Author note: I have no words right now. Just look at Ashes new skin. However it´s not like I´m writing this for you or anything, idiot. Please kill me. I can´t stop laughing.
