Hey guys, Churchisalive from the overwatch team here. So it's been a while, and I also want to post that I will not be continuing the Vanoss in Beacon story. But, I recently purchased Overwatch and gained a 54 level. I'm kinda happy, also like this story if you hat Bastions.
[At Texas's Apartment]
Church woke up to the sight of Tex staring back at him after a very long night of 'catching up' together. Tex smiled as Church smiled back, it's been so long since he once saw that beautiful smile of hers. She pecked him on the lips as they both sat up to talk.
Tex spoke first with the blankets covering her chest, "So, we definitely need to do that again, right?" She asked.
Church sat up as he covered his legs, "The fighting or the night after that?" He asked.
Tex looked at him with a smirk, "Can't it be both?" She asked with big eyes.
Church smirked for a moment, "I'd love to but, what happens if 'he' comes out?" He asked.
Tex looked at him in remembering who 'he' was, "Krieg never left you?" She asked.
Church shook his head, "Still lingers, waiting patiently, almost as if he was waiting for something to bring him out." He said.
Tex looked at Church, "Hey, if Krieg ever comes out, y'know I can take him." She said reassuring him.
Church nodded his head, "Yeah, I know that." He said as he began to grab his pants, "Well, we should do this again, right?" He asked.
Tex got up with the blanket wrapped around her, "It might be hard, but Reyes and Akande are too busy planning to notice anything. Moira keeps experimenting, God knows what she's working on. A'meila and Sombra are fine with me for the time being, it's the new recruits you should be worried about." Tex said.
Church took a deep breath, "I know, but they met us and know the outcome of that battle." He said.
"Which makes them much more dangerous." Tex responded.
For a while Church hadn't said anything, because she was right, they knew the Reds and Blues. Each of them alone was difficult to kill, but together they might be unstoppable.
Church shifted the attention somewhere else, "Tex, remember that cheesy ass song awhile back?" He asked.
"No, don't you dare start." She said joking about it.
"It's gonna take me a lot to drive me away from you." Church said since he wasn't really singing to music.
"I'm not listening." Tex pretended not to enjoy it.
"There is nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do." He continued.
"That song should've been left as is." Tex said.
"Just like the rains down in Africa." Church said.
"Toto and Jason Derulo are gonna sue somebody." She said.
"It's gonna take some time but I know we can fight it through." Church continued.
"No no no, nope. Nuh-uh, not hearing." Tex said looking away from Church.
Cause I'll fight for you." Church finished.
Tex complaint with a groan, "Alright, I get it. It goes without saying but don't die." She said.
Church smiled back, "Alright then, later bitch." Church said as he began to change into his pants.
Tex chuckled to herself, "You asshole." She joked as she threw a pillow at him.
Church got his final boot on as he grabbed his shirt and tank top, "Love you, too." Church said as he disappeared to the hallway.
Tex smiled as she knew that Church would be safe.
Or so she thought.
[In The Elevator on The Way to The Bottom]
Church was getting his shirt over his head as he grew one of the biggest smiles ever. He was proud of himself, not because of last night, but because this was one time he was actually helping Tex and she was helping him, almost like a symbiotic relationship. Church was truly happy, not many times can he admit that at all.
He was so happy he was humming out of the elevator and walking with a little jump in his step. He was acting like he was something out of a cartoon animated movie, the opposite of what he's been like before.
Church stepped outside the building and began to walk down the street, with the tune in his head.
As he was a few feet from the corner however he heard a loud clanking noise and felt a sharp pain in his leg. Church looked down to see that his right leg had been caught in some type of spring loaded bear trap. As painful as it was Church had one thought going through his mind, "What the hell?" He winced as he was about to reach down and release his foot.
However something had found a way to wrap itself around Church's chest and latched onto him. Church examined it for a split moment, it was a hook of some kind with multiple screws jammed into it. Church's moment to examine the hook was over as he now tugged by the force that could've rattled his bones. The screws had dug into his stomach as his gut now had three equal sized holes inside of it.
The painful chain ride had ended with his face running smack straight into a grey stone wall. Mentally Church, already knew the damage: ears ringing, two ribs cracked, three ribs broken, and back of the head was bleeding. Church coughed up large amounts of blood, he had finally managed to get some vision to his eyes. He saw two figures standing above him, one was round and large, the other was slim and lanky, they both smelled and looked like something straight out of madmax.
The lanky figure spoke first, "G'day mate, name's Junkrat, my large pal here is known as Road Hog." He said.
Church looked up, "Alright, so what does that have to do with me?" Church asked.
Junkrat smiled with his crooked grin, "Well, you see, there's a bounty on your head, so yada yada yada, we're taking you to the Queen of Junker Town so we can get back in the city." He said.
Roadhog had spoke through his mask, "Jamison, tell him the truth." He said.
Junkrat sighed, "Fine, you're part of an elaborate trap to deceive her into taking a treasure cart which we rigged with explosives so that we can blow her and her throne room to kingdom come." He said.
Church huffed, "Trust me this doesn't go well." He said.
Junkrat smiled again, "Don't worry, we'll be there soon. Roadie, can you make him comfortable?" He asked.
The next thing Church had seen was a large fist with the rings spelling out "Road" heading straight to his eyes.
[Hours Later]
Church had woken up to the bumpiest he ever had in his entire life. He looked to his left to see the fat pig that had knocked him out, then to his left to see the scrawny annoying fucker.
Church looked down to see himself wrapped up in chains, and his hands were tied behind his back. He attempted to reach in his back pocket so he could free himself, but something was missing.
"Y'know, for someone of interest he's got nothing interesting on him." Junkrat had said to Roadhog, "All he's got is a wallet with a few bucks, and this crazy mask thing." He said.
Church squinted as he saw his most powerful weapon, the mask that brought out the most dangerous man. Church immediately knew what to do, "Please, sir, can I please have the mask." Church begged in his most pathetic voice ever.
Junkrat turned around fast, "Well, look who's awake. You want this mask?" Junkrat asked, dangling it in his hand.
Church nodded his head, "I do, please, let me wear it one more time." He pleaded.
Junkrat laughed maniacally, "Y'know what? Just cause I'm in a good mood, here." He said as he placed it on Church's face.
Before Church had taken a heavy breath he had looked at Junkrat with a sincere eye, "Thank you." but he truly had a smug grin on.
When Junkrat went back in his sidecar Roadhog spoke to him, "Why do I feel as though you did something we'll regret later?" He asked.
Junkrat looked back at Roadhog, "Oh calm down Roadhog, what could possibly happen, he hid as mic or some locator in there and is calling for backup?" He asked. Roadhog looked over at Junkrat, "Don't worry, there was none of that in his mask, it smelled horrible anywhere." He finished.
Roadhog had felt a finger tap his left shoulder, "Jamey, I'm not in the mood." He said in his rough voice.
Junkrat looked over confused, "What you talking about, Roadie?" He asked.
"I know that was you just now." Roadhog responded.
"Seriously, what do you mean?" Junkrat asked.
"You tapped my shoulder." Roadhog said angrily.
"First of all, I'd have to stand up just to get over the fat folds of your neck. Second...Uhhh...nope just the one thing." Junkrat said.
Roadhog looked at him, "If it wasn't you, could it be...?" He asked as he slowly looked back at their prisoner.
He instead received a large fist to the face sending him flying out of his seat, off the bike and over the front tire. Junkrat was about to react until someone else got into the driver seat, "Ha ha ha, I love it when ya splash on my windshield!" The man wearing the same mask as Church shouted.
Junkrat pulled out his gun but couldn't grab it, due to the fact he had the seat belt wrapped around the barrel. He struggled furiously, "C'mon ya piece of junk...get...out..." He said as he attempted to pull.
Junkrat felt the side car shake furiously, he looked to see the psycho kicking off the side car. With a heavy stomp, "Get out of my chair." He growled as he kicked off Junkrat he laughed maniacally as he drove off in the Junkers stolen vehicle.
"Roadie?" Junkrat asked.
"Hm?" Roadhog responded.
"I fucked us didn't I?" Junkrat asked.
"Mhm." Roadhog replied.
"Fuck."
[Overwatch HQ]
Tucker noticed Church wasn't back yet so he had decided to make a private call, to someone who would know. He made sure Asshole 76 wasn't around as he got ready, he looked over his shoulder. He dialed the number and waited for the other line...
"Hello?" The other line asked.
"Hey Tex, it's me Tuck, before you hang up, y'know we only meant you can have Church for that night, right?" Tucker asked.
"What are you talking about?" Tex asked.
"He's not with you?" Tucker asked.
"No he left my apartment this morning, why?" Tex asked.
Slowly the gears in Tucker's head had managed to piece everything together. The instant revelation had him in complete shock as he dropped his phone to the floor.
Immediately he rushed down the hall to the main room and shouted to everyone, "Church has been kidnapped!" He shouted.
Dr. Zeigler had put a hand on Tucker, "Are you sure you know this?" She asked.
"Trust me, Doc, he's been taken." Tucker said.
Winston crawled over to his computer, "No worries, I can find him thanks to the tracking device he allowed me to implant in him. Let me just do a little bit of this, and..." He said as he got the global view of where Church was.
Tucker saw this and realized where he was, "Oh crap baskets." He said.
Sarge walked up to Tucker unable to see the computer, "Well, where is he?" He asked.
Tucker began to answer them with questions, "So you know how Church is not a very patient person when it comes to stress?" He asked.
Sarge grew curious, "Yeah..." He said.
"And you know when he's under extreme stress, something...comes out?" Tucker asked.
Sarge answered again slower, "Yeah..."
"And you know how his biggest stress problems are high temperatures, large ass creatures, and rude, dumb people?" Tucker asked knowing all the answer.
Sarge eyes froze, "No! He's not there, he can't be..." He said.
Tucker nodded his head, "Oh he is...Church is in Australia." He answered.
Grif who was in the room along with everyone in the base looked up as he laid down, "Well, we're fucked." He said.
Sorry this took me so long, also now I am Level 81. Be sure to hope that I make it to the top 500 this season. And if I do, Church in Junker Town will come soon.
