Within the fortress of the Roidmudes, Paradox looked through how it went. With the new technology, skills and allies they were so close to their goal. One that would cripple t!
he world enough to give them enough time to create the newly revised World-Wide Density Shift.
Paradox could only grin at this, knowing once this is done, Overwatch will be too busy to deal with them, thus giving them all of the time in the world. Though, at the same time, with how the Riders are, they are becoming more problematic for them. They needed to be dealt with and with this next mission? They'll be out of their hairs for good.
Standing up from his throne, he walks over to the glass seeing the tower that is being built. The very tower that will unleash a global Density Shift. While it was halfway complete, it was a sight to behold. The glory of the machine will soon rise and for the Roidmudes to be the true species, ruling the world.
The sound of footsteps echoed in his sensors, the reflection of the glass displaying Blackhardt - Super form walking over, looking out the window as well. "Boss, everything has been running smoothly with the construction."
"Excellent," Paradox praised. "Soon, the world will know who they are dealing with."
"If I may ask… why do we ally with the Omnics?"
"Because they share the same 'feelings' we do, Blackhardt. Anger, abandonment, intelligence, seeking the means to truly reach evolution much as humanity does." Paradox said, walking across the hall as Blackhardt followed, the Crusader Roidmudes following the duo as guards. "Humanity is what lead them to be abandoned, treated like nothing but monsters."
"Yet, we plan to just use them?" Blackhardt questioned.
Paradox glared at Blackhardt, the mighty knight flinched. "Not use, Blackhardt. For them to join us as brothers and sisters for who we are. Machines who aim to reach evolution." The walk continued as they were outside. While most would assume the base was nothing but metal and smoke, the area held plant life. "As we reach evolution, we gain a better form of 'humanity' than the apes."
""Wait, we're moving to the final stage already? But I thought we were still missing some ingredients?"
"Not yet," This earned confusion. "While we are not close, I have more thoughts in mind. Since you and I are the only Super Evolved Roidmudes in this pitiful time, we are to remain here until the time is right. So for now…" He looks at the night sky. "We send our best ones to retrieve the next item."
"Who?"
"Contact Judge Roidmude and send him to India. He and some of the Crusader Roidmudes and Reaper Roidmudes will take action and steal the Hardlight Tech we couldn't retrieve last time."
"Yes sir," Blackhardt obeyed as he and a Crusader Roidmude followed him while the other stood by Paradox.
The spacial Roidmude walks over to a room, pressing a few keys before the floor in front of him opened, the center forming a pillar that rose to reveal a glass casing that held a human sized gauntlet. Placing his claw over the glass, he remembered the first item he found when he woke up in this place.
Flashback…
Paradox felt powerless… even if he can barely use his Heavy Density Shift, he felt weak. He was the all powerful Roidmude 108 who evolved by combining his past self. The streets were not crowded as people glanced at the new machine. The pure gold and onyx black armor and the horns on its head. It was oddly new to be honest.
Paradox despised humans. While he did adsorbed that black clothed soldiers shotguns when he woke in this era, he needed more energy to fuel his body without wasting it by summoning weapons. His internal circuits barely kept him going and he needed more to allow his body to reboot and regain the power he lost. He merely shoved the disgusting humans aside as he trudges through the city, finding something that can help his mechanical body.
As he does, he could feel his body weakening more and more in this new era. He truly needed something powerful, otherwise even a mere human weapon could destroy him. He ventured through before coming across what looked to be a shipment. The Roidmude glance over to it as the guards were hauling off what looked to be a golden gauntlet, radiating power.
That… is what he needed.
Mustering what power he had left for the time being, he casted off a Super Density Shift as it froze the guards in place, frightening them. Paradox walked over towards the gauntlet before shattering the glass that held it as he gripped the device. Power surged through him as he soon began to feel like himself.
"Thanks for the gauntlet." He said to the guards, raising his claw before all that was left was their cries.
Flashback ends…..
Paradox sighed upon those memories. The Doomfist Gauntlet, the most powerful weapon that was made by the previous bearer who is in prison. So, he decided to treasure this 'sacred' gauntlet. To him, it was the item that saved his life. He will use it someday and no one will dare touch his treasured item. Pressing a button, the pillar closed over the glass case, the pillar itself lowering into the ground and the floor closed.
"No one will stop me from my goal."
(Insert Opening - World End - Code Geass R2 Opening 2 - NateWantsToBattle Ver)
There is a light at my world's end, There's nothing left now to defend
As the song starts, we see Cody standing along what looks like to be a field, overlooking the plains and the city out in the distance. A smile on his face as he begins to race towards the city.
It flies off in the wind
As Cody races towards the city, several Signal Bikes and Shift Cars are racing behind him. As he keeps running, the title card appears, shining brightly before the Signal Bikes and Shift Cars races towards it, flying right through it as the screen turns white.
I can't get by pretending it's okay
The screen then comes back to Cody, relaxing in the Overwatch HQ, as Tracer appears, teasing him by fiddling with his hair. Mercy from afar giggles at this while Winston sighs, working on something as it sparks in his face.
I can't help us so this is our last day
It then shifts to Lucio jamming to his music before D. Va pops in, taking off his headphones and running around, with the said person trying to chase after her. Only to stop and see Reinhardt standing there, arms crossed before scolding them. As Mei sighs slightly from their antics.
Everything was stolen from me, In a world that wouldn't change
We then see Hanzo, meditating under some cherry blossom trees as Genji is sitting right behind him, a small smile appear on Hanzo's face. Before shifting towards Zenyatta, giving a speech at some sumit as Zarya keeps guard over him.
What's this song that I have been singing, A song of colors turned to gray
It then changes towards an alley as smoke blooms in it, and appearing from it was none other than Reaper, along with Widowmaker, Talon, and several more shrouded by the darkness.
Everything is bright
Back at the HQ, the alarm goes off as Tracer, Winston and Mercy races off towards it, as Cody follows behind them, lifting up Signal Mach.
It's time to let my shattered dreams, Become this world's reality
It then changes to an all-out brawl as Tracer is fighting against Windowmaker, with Lucio backing her up. Then changes to Genji and Hanzo, unleashing their dragon attacks with D. Va jumping out of her mech that quickly self-destructs, besting Talon's forces.
It's the end for me
We then see Cody, now in Mach's armor as he strikes, shoots and deflects every attack at him as he changes into Dead-Heat, Chaser and another shadowy form as he gets close to Reaper.
There is a light at my world's end, There's nothing left now to defend
It then changes back to Cody running towards somewhere, as the screen quickly pans out to show the rest of the heroes of Overwatch who still remained heroes. Each one smiling or determined as they race off towards their location.
Now I can see, There's nothing left for me
As they keep running, it pans to show not only a newly made Overwatch Headquarters, but a more brightful future as the sun shines on the HQ's tower. It then slowly cuts back towards Cody, now looking up at the night sky as the title card appears one last time.
It has been a few days since the incident at Russia and Blackhardt achieving Super Evolution. It bothered them to learn two Roidmudes are Super Evolved. Paradox and Blackhardt. And with how things are now, it wasn't looking good since the technology Russia tried to take from the machines, is all gone and now in Roidmude hands to make sure no one fights back.
Especially now that Zaraya is not only with Overwatch, but trying to train Cody! Which speaking of...
"I give! I give!" Cody cried out, in a strong hold by the Russian fighter as he tapped the ground, begging to be released as she kept the hold. The Russian soldier released her hold on Cody as Krim, in the belt, along with Chaser who leaned against the wall watched. Krim felt sorry for Cody for the heinous training while Chaser merely rolled his eyes. The blonde had to suck it up since it was military training. The Shift Cars honked at one another as the casino themed Shift Car had to give up a few coins to the Viral Cores who happily obliged on the win.
Cody rubbed his arm, wincing upon the sore arm. "I hate this…"
"Hmph, for an american, you sure are weak, boy." Zaraya scoffed, "So scrawny too! If you didn't fight, you'd be a twig."
"Hey!" Cody snapped, feeling offended.
They saw the screen appear between the two as it was meant for Zarya. "Give him a break. He has never been through this form of combat." They look at Chaser who hopped over the railing.
"Which is why he needs to be trained with a real fighter! Not this flashy magic tricks."
"Riders who started never got training. The previous ones barely had fighting training and yet they fought and won. They even fought against immortals, otherworldly beasts, even going against a world conquering organization and won. Most fought alone or in pairs. One can take down a squad but put in a group of Riders, the possibility of victory is 100%."
"Hm, while that is fascinating. This young one is different. Thus, I shall treat him like a warrior and train him like one!" She stated.
"I am not warrior!' Cody flailed his arms. Chaser sighed, rubbing his nose in irritation.
"Lena.. can you help me please?" Cody pleaded to the pilot who was watching from afar.
"Sure thing! Besides seeing that was more painful than the training the rest of us go through," She replied.
"Thank you!" He said, rushing towards her to have a much easier session than this.
Chaser chuckled before noticing Zarya staring at him, more exactly his golden Roidmude arm. He knew the woman had other intentions to joining and it was to learn more to the tech that counters the Roidmudes. Even Krim was aware about it. Chaser frowned and turned around, walking away to prevent more of that woman from staring at his arm. Once close to Krim, he displayed a message to him, "I don't trust her."
"I agree with you." Krim agreed. "She has other intentions than joining the group. Whoever she works for wants to know more of my technology which I won't share since the world is not ready for it. You seen the damage it caused."
Chaser nodded grimly before feeling something lifting his human arm playfully, making him look to see the floating ice bot once again. He smiled, gently rubbing the top of its dome.
"Hehe, seems Snowball really does like you." Mei said, walking in with some coco as she hands him a cup.
"Seems… so." He managed to show through his broken voice.
"Don't strain yourself too much…" She said, placing her hand on his cheek, "You just need time and it'll be back… so don't force it, okay?"
He nodded softly in response. While his voice was recovering, he needed time to recover and not strain himself.
"Good.." Mei smiled, looking around to see that it's just them in the room as she leans in and pecks his cheek. "Now… how about a date?"
HIs cheeks dusted red slightly before nodding. "S-Sure." Mei smiled as Snowball chuckled before the two went off.
Meanwhile, Cody was walking with Lena around the town that was near the Forgotten Zone, just relaxing from the rough training as he young man groaned, "Man… this truly doesn't get easy…" He noted.
"It isn't always easy, luv. It is just how things are." Lena said to him.
"Tell me about it…" He sighed, "Though it has been awhile since I've just relaxed…."
"Oh right, it has been a while with the whole global war with machines." She said.
Cody lowered his head and nodded. The entire world was slowly being consumed by the Roidmudes and the Omnics that follow them. They have control over certain countries in the world and are planning something that could rival or surpass the events of what Banno did.
"Hey, cheer up, luv." Lena smiled, poking his cheek, "Once we take care of those Roidmudes, everything will be alright."
"Will it?" He muttered lowly. "They are doing genocide Lena. They already killed millions of innocent people. They have been slowly taking over and the fact they are on the winning streak even if we fight them each time… they are winning unlike before…"
"Cody…. Look at me." Lena said as the blonde did so, "Yes, they are doing things and are winning. But we just can't give up because of that. If we do, then they will win. We have to keep fighting for the sake of peace. As well as the safety for those that still remains safe."
"For how long though?" He questioned. "How long can we continue before we die?"
"Cody…. Don't think like that." Lena frowned softly. He looked away slightly as they continue to walk. Lena noticed this as she began to ponder, "You're scared not being able to go back home… aren't you?"
She received silence from him before saying, "All want to do is find my way back home… I want to go home..."
Lena frowned sadly as she stopped, still holding onto his hand as that made him stop as well. He turned to her before the pilot soon brought him into a hug, saying nothing else but the comfort of embrace before he returned it.
"I promise Cody. We will help you get back home…" Lena promised.
The blonde slowly nodded before noticing a Shift Car rolling up to him, honking in alarm. Picking up Shift Speed, he blinked. "What's wrong?"
"Cody, we have big trouble! Get over to the Drive Pit immediately!" Krim advised.
"Ugh… not one day I can get some rest…" Cody sighed.
"It'll come someday, luv." Lena smiled.
"Yeah right…. When that happens, I'll take you out." he chuckled.
"It's a date." Lena winked before running off.
Cody thought stood there, 'D-Did… Did I just get asked out by her?' He questioned in his thoughts before shaking them off and following after her.
Once back in the Drive Pit, the members of Overwatch regrouped as Krim was on the mobile pedestal, in the Drive Driver. "Good to see you all here. We have a major situation… and it involves you Symmetra…"
"Me? How so?" She questioned the scientist.
"They… They are attacking your home town… they are attempting to steal the Hard Light Tech again." Krim announced.
"Damn bastards…." Symmetra spat out, "They can try but they won't succeed. They failed once and can do so again."
"Then let's get there and prevent them from doing so. Everyone, load up," Jack ordered, earning nods. They all grabbed their respective gear and prepared themselves for the trip back to India.
"Hard Light…. Just why is that tech that important to them?" Cody pondered within the plane. "Yes I know it can create things from the energy the light creates, but even then there's still limits."
"Yes but if they were to reverse engineer it to create Roidmude Cores and their own bodies and weapons…" Krim said.
"Then they wouldn't need to waste time trying to make them evolve, they can just create them…" Tracer gasped.
"Which is why we have to hurry before they get hold of the tech." Krim advised as the ship slowly descends but as the door slowly opens, the sound of ricochet echoed behind the metal as everyone took the other exit as they notice not only Reaper Roidmudes but Crusader Roidmudes leading the attack.
"Oh bugger! They really want the Hard Light tech badly!" Tracer groaned, as she fired back.
Reinhardt brought up the barrier, allowing Soldier 76 to fire for support. Even D. Va had to use her MEKA's Shield to block any incoming shots. "No kidding!" She responded. "These Roidmudes do not want to let us through!"
"We have to push through!" Mach said.
Pharah flew to dodge a blast before she noticed two Roidmude Airships but the reason for the two was something it was carrying, her eyes widened underneath her gold visor. She quickly placed her hand over to her helmet. "Guys, we have a major situation! You have two Roidmude Ships inbound… and they are bringing in the big guns…"
"Copy, what does it look like?" A thud was heard throughout the streets.
"I… think that's what she meant…" Mach slowly pointed ahead as they saw two airships carrying robotic mech that was 5 times their size. When it dropped close to the Roidmudes, its dual red eyes flared and roared at the group.
"You gotta be kidding me… they made their own machine…" Soldier 76 gasped.
"Okay, we need a bigger bang to take those out." Mach commented. "We don't have the weapons to deal with something that big!"
"We have to avoid it," Soldier 76 advised. "Just keep going!" He fired the Hydro missiles at the large machine.
The large, Roidmude made Omnic retaliated as it launched several missiles at them. Mach quickly responded as he switched out his Signal Bike with Tomarle before he pointed at the incoming missiles before he pulled the trigger, once he did, he rapidly pressed the button as several 'STOP' signs appear, halting the fire.
IMASUGU TOMARLE!
"Good thinking, luv!" Tracer complimented.
"We have to go!" Mach said as the group fought their way through the Roidmudes while avoiding the large Omnic from its missiles and stomps. From a distance, they saw the place where Symmetra once worked at. Missiles being fired at it as the local military try to fend them off. However they could see a familiar Roidmude who lodged his staff into a soldier, impaling him before electrocuting him from the inside out.
It was the Judge Roidmude who initiated the attack back at Russia alongside Blackhardt and Surgeon.
Zaraya growled heavily, "He's mine." She declared, charging towards him.
Tossing the corpse aside, he pointed at the building. "Push through my brothers! Show them no mercy! For the glory of Lord Paradox!" He ordered, earning mechanical roars of pride as the Crusader Roidmudes use their energy shield to push forward, allowing the Reaper Roidmudes to shoot.
Judge chuckled before looking back to see Overwatch heading towards them. Snarling in anger, he looks at a corpse before observing the heavy weapon. It was like a rocket launcher. He was more of a staff user but it will temporarily serve well. Seeing the knight and the MEKA, he knew it won't work but…
Looking up, his grin grew. "Oi! Fire at that!" he ordered one Roidmude. It nodded and fired at the ropes, dropping a crate of barrels in front of them. The team stopped as Mashin Chaser notice what the barrels hold. Explosive materials. Quickly raising his head, he saw Judge grinned and fired at the barrels.
"MOVE!" Mashin Chaser shouted.
The group moved away quickly before the explosion erupted sky high, forcing some back and others into some roaming Roidmudes as they began to deal with them.
"Great! Now we have to deal with these guys!" D. Va groaned, firing at the nearby Roidmudes.
"We have to deal with that large Omnic, otherwise we won't be able to stop them!" Tracer noted.
Mashin Chaser observes his surroundings before noticing the angle on one of the buildings. "Guys… I have an idea." He said through the message.
"What kind of idea?" Mach asked. The answer he got was the Shinigami entering the building. "DID HE JUST LEAVE US?!" The rider shouted out.
With Mashin Chaser, he rushes up the emergency stairs but noticed a few Roidmudes who were rushing down. "The Shinigami!" One of them shouted.
The purple armored Rider merely used the Spider blade and begins to fight his way up the stairs. At one point, he bashed a Roidmude's head to the wall before using it as a meatshield to shoot at the others that got near. Once he was nearing the rooftops, the door was slammed open but the Rider stopped the Omnic, kicking its chest before tossing it over the railing, sending it falling down the center of the stairway. Now finding himself on the rooftops, he peeks over the very high edge and sees the building going at an angle.
What he was about to do was either the best thing or the most craziest thing to do. "Stop him!" He looks back to see a few Roidmudes with their weapons raised. "You are not going anywhere, SHinigami!"
Mashin Chaser merely chuckled and spreads his arms like wings. "I do." He forces himself to step over the edge of the building. Looking down, he sees the angular part of the building. Seeing this, he used his armored hand to grab onto the metal part to slowly his fall and shoots at the giant Omnic, earning its attention along with his team..
"What the? What is he doing?" Jack questioned, fending off the Roidmudes that came closer.
"He must have a good reason. There's no other way he'd do this." Mei said, believing in him.
Landing on the ramp, almost cracking the glass, his feet begins to slide downward, right at the giant. Mashin Chaser growled as he slid across the glass ramp of the building. He could see the giant Omnic firing at him but it kept missing. He used the Bat Arrow to fire at the giant Omnic, continuously firing with powerful bolts. Seeing the edge, he knew what he had to do… and it was going to be insane.
Once close, he launched himself at the large mech, latching himself onto its head. Using the bow, he continuously fired at its head, the machine trying to get the human off of it. It swerves left and right but Mashin Chaser was not allowing it as he literally shoots at its neck, each wire and metal being nothing but shrapnel before he cancels its. Since his Roidmude arm was still fully operational and the armor enhances the punching power of his hands, he might as well. He slams his fists into its neck, mustering all the strength he can muster through his arms, the Viral Cores powering his armor with purple and red electricity. Next thing they knew, he rips off its head, the machine now headless.
The machine slowly lost all feeling to its sensors before it fell to its knees and landing on the dirt with a mighty thud. Mashin Chaser on the other hand, hopped off the machine, wiping away the dust on his shoulder as the machine exploded behind him upon the damage it took.
"Okay…. How did you even know to do that?!" Mach questioned.
He taps his arm, "Brain, remember? It allowed me to find its neural sensors and weak point."
"Hmph, guess we now have a weapon to take out larger enemies." Jack noted, "Come on team, let's take care of the pests and as quickly as possible.
Mashin Chaser nodded and tossed the head aside, rubbing his shoulder from all the lifting he did to the machine. Unholstering his Break Gunner, he shoots a Roidmude that tried to crawl away before following the team into the building to stop the Roidmudes.
Judge tossed a body aside as they were nearing the science area that develop and research the Hardlight Technology. "Hehehe… so easy." He was about to approach the door that leads to the lab. He noticed the door was heavily locked… he might as well punch through as he used his fist.
Inside, several scientists and more were there to take shelter, as some were able to use some parts of the Hardlight tech to create a barrier and shield to protect them. Several turrets and more were around it to protect them for the Omnics and Roidmudes as their bodies laid on the ground.
They could hear the resounding thuds in the wall, no doubt the Roidmude was trying to punch through the main door before it could reach the barriers. He punched again and again with each boom they could hear behind it.
"It'll be okay. They can't get in here." The head scientist reassured the others.
"For how long? We are going to die!"
"Don't be like that. Symmetra will be here and deal with them."
With Judge, his next punch left a dent. Just one more should do it and he will satisfy the boss. Rearing his arm back, he was ready for one last punch. Before he could, a shuriken hits his arm, causing him to look back to see Genji with his wakizashi unsheathed. A staff wielder vs a katana wielder.
"Come on," Genji challenged.
Judge stopped his punching and turned to face him. He may be a Roidmude on a mission but he was also one who judges the ways of a warrior. And quite frankly, he found his fight. Grabbing his electrified staff on his back, he unsheathes it and ignited with electricity.
"Hmph, an ape such as yourself is quite confident if you think you can take me on." Judge said as the two started to move slowly in a circle, keeping an eye on one another as they wait to start their duel. "But, at least you'll provide a good challenge. More so than those others you call 'friends'."
"I have seen far greater things for my allies. I on the other hand am a man who has found a higher humanity." Genji said calmly.
"Then let's see if you are more man than machine." Judge said and lunged at Genji, the cyborg dodging the staff before hitting its back, sending it stumbling forward. The Roidmudes looks at Genji who twirls his blade and moves his fingers backwards. Growling at the mockery, Judge rushes towards the ninja with his staff, the Shimada dodging its swing and strikes the leg. While it fell on one knee, Judge slams the staff into Genji's chest, pushing him back with an electrical shock. While it didn't fully hurt him, it still hurts.
"I can see it now… Heh, you still believe that you can be one of them. Still be human after what happened." Judge noted, "Yes… I remember that from the archives… You were basically killed by your own brother."
"That I remember but the one thing other's wouldn't do was grant forgiveness which I forgave my brother," Genji responded, blocking Judge's attack but felt the electrical attack as it was coursing through his body. It was attempting to mess up with his systems.
"Just face it, you are no higher human, you are just a husk!"
Genji growled before he roared and pushes Judge back, through the electrical pain he was enduring. The duo kept on clashing with their respective weapons, man against machine. A cyborg vs an android. The duo were fully attacking with all their might before Judge felt complete fury to this fight. He was on the verge of losing, and he wasn't going to let that happen! Its hands conducted an electrical ball and slams it against Genji's chest.
"Electro Discharge!" Judge cried out as he let loose all of the electrical power from his body and poured it into Genji's. The Ninja cried out in pain as parts of his armor and cybernetic limbs began to spark and break as tears in his limbs opened up before a large explosion erupted, flinging the ninja away.
The Roidmude panted, his own body already suffering damage and approaches the Shimada, the mask broken to reveal blood red eyes. "You really think… being one of man and machine is good!?" He kicks Genji's gut, earning a cough. "No human could ever fully see what it means to be a machine!" He slams his feet onto Genji's chest again as the Shimada rolls across the ground, his Dragonblade landing in front of him. He tries to reach for it but Judge grabs him by the leg and literally flips him over to the other side, landing on his back. "You… have been judged miserable human! For accepting on being a machine when you are nothing but only…" His staff electrified with more power and raised it at him, aimed for his head. "Human."
But before the Roidmude could finish the cyborg ninja, a swift breeze flew by, and upon turning around, was greeted with a palm to the face, flinging it back before it could recover. Judge was about to stop himself, before he felt something on his arm, he looked to see an arrow before it beeped and let loose an explosion, hurting the Roidmude and destroying his arm.
"W-Who… are you?" Judge groaned, looking up.
Genji weakly raised his head and his red eyes widened. "Hanzo…" He recognized.
His big brother standing in front of him, the Storm Bow aimed at the Roidmude. "After seeing the true nature of what has happened and what I have seen and learned through this Roidmude War. Redemption… comes in all forms for humanity." he fired an arrow as it hit the Roidmude's shoulder once more.
Roaring at the archer, it grabbed his staff and lunged at Hanzo. The older Shimada dodged the staff before delivering a flying kick to its face, sending it stumbling forward. He switched arrows before firing at the wall, clusters of shrapnel hitting it more, each piece embedding into its metal skin.
"You… You think you can beat ME!?" The Roidmude roared in cold rage and rushed towards it.
Hanzo frowned and grabs one arrow, slowly aimed at Judge. The container on his waist and his Tattoo were glowing with a blue aura, traveling to his arrow.
"Ryuuga wageteki wo kurau!"
"What?!" Judge cried out as in seconds, the arrow that was shot out of the bow soon turned blue before forming into 2, spiraling energy dragons. They roared as they rushed towards the Roidmude and piercing its body. The attack pushes through the window and the Roidmude screams in pain, exploding into ashes as its Core floated in the air. It attempted to escape through the broken window but with the remaining strength in him, Genji launched his shurikens at it, destroying it for good before his arm lost feeling.
"Genji!" Mercy cried out, as the archer and ninja turned to see the rest of Overwatch before the medic rushed over to him worried.
"Oh my god…" Mach gasped as the others saw his damage.
"Genji, are you alright?" Mercy asked, as she kneeled down, but didn't touch him in fear of hurting him.
"Judge… is defeated…" Genji said, his body having green sparks on certain parts of his body. "The scientists are safe…" He grunted in pain, clutching his chest.
"You're so hurt… We have to get you out of here and to the base." Mercy said, looking at the others as Krim 'nodded'. Dimension Cab then rolled through the air before around the two as it made a single circle to create it's portal and send the two to the base to allow the medic to take care of him. This now only left Blackhardt of the Crusader Squad. While he wasn't around, he lost his second in command of the squad. Mach turns his head to see the archer who was the one who helped save Genji and stop Judge.
"Thanks for saving our friend." Mach said to the archer. "But… what are you doing here?"
"A chance of redemption…" Hanzo replied.
"Redemption?" Mashin Chaser asked.
"Is everyone alright?" Symmetra asked as the shield and barrier dropped, as the scientists were safe..
"Thank goodness, you made it Symmetra!" One of them said with relief. "We thought we were goners…"
"Don't worry, you're all safe. Come, we'll get you to safety." she offered to them.
"Thank you. Thank you all for saving us."
Mach smiled under his helmet before he noticed Hanzo walking away. "Hey, why don't you join us? We still got Roidmudes and rogue Omnics to deal with." he offered.
The older Shimada stopped before glancing over his shoulder, looking at Mach. "You… want me to join?" He questioned.
"Yeah." Mach nods, a smile on his face even if the helmet was blocking it. "Regardless what happened in the past, today you've shown you're still willing to fight. I think that resolve is needed in Overwatch." He said, earning a smile from Tracer.
The Shimada stares at Mach critically then at the others along with Mashin Chaser. "Alright… I accept your offer." He accepted.
"Then let's get to busting some bots!" Tracer cheered.
After taking care of the rest of the Roidmudes and Omnics that were left after the defeat of the large Omnic and the defeat of Judge, the city was safe from the Roidmude's clutches but the damage remained while lives were lost. Overwatch were back in the base, taking a chance to relax from the grueling battle.
Though for Mercy and Krim, they were hard at work with saving Genji who was too badly damaged from the fight against Judge. The medic had a look of severe worry and sadness upon seeing his damaged body. With Wintson's and Torbjorn's help, they were continuously fixing Genji's cybernetic body from the damage it suffered from the electrical attack Judge delivered.
"Genji…." Mercy muttered, as she looked at him sadly before Winston placed his hand on her.
"Don't worry, if anyone can save him, it you, Angela." Winston said to her.
The medic nodded as she continues her work on readjusting the neural nodes on the cybernetic attachments. It felt like hours or even days but through every careful step, they were succeeding. Each procedure done by the book and by her watch. After those hours, she took a deep breath and looks at Genji.
His body fully repaired including his mask, his chest rising and lowering, showing he is breathing normally.
"We did it," Winston smiled with relief.
"Thank god…" Mercy sighed with relief, placing her hand on his cheek, "i… don't know what I'd do if he fell in battle…"
"Angela? You… have feelings for him?" Krim noted as the medic blushed heavily. He chuckled mentally before looking over at the screen. "Putting that aside, it seems that with Judge out of the way, there Numbered Roidmudes are dwindling by the day. Without the Numbered Roidmudes, the Numberless won't know what to do. That being said, if all Numbered Roimudes are gone and Paradox left, he would be the last one before restoring order."
"Which means he could get desperate and do unknown things…" Winston noted.
"Exactly. It is the same way he did when Shinnosuke was on the verge of victory until Paradox met his match and lost." Krim said. "But…"
"But what?"
"The only way to defeat Paradox is Type-Special. The very Shift Car that allows the user to become the Future Drive." The scientist in the belt informed. "And sadly, I don't know where that Shift Car has gone to… if we are to truly defeat Paradox, we need to find Type Special along with the NEXTridoron and someone would need to use me to truly end it. So far… no lucky candidates are compatible."
"Only thing we can do is try our best and hope we can figure out another way should that power be lost or destroyed." Winston noted.
Krim could only wonder where Shift NEXT/Special has gone to. Just where did it go and why? Was it trying to learn something? Find out to why it is here? All those thoughts ran in his mind.
"Where could you have gone?" He wondered in his thoughts.
One thing is for certain, things are about to change as the tides of the battle will soon turn.
A/N: Well, this was a bit short, but don't worry, next chap will be much longer. ^^;
Truth be told, I was gonna have the Roidmudes win this fight and get the Hard-Light Tech, but after talking it around with others, I realized this wasn't the best idea cause that'd make them too powerful with that kind of tech. Luckily, I already have some ideas for the next chapter, but nothing set in stone.
so until then, later minna!
