It was a normal day for the Red Mercanary Company well as normal it could be, they had just gotten back from defeating the Blue Mercanary Company and had decided to take a load off. Heavy, Scout and Demoman had went to go have drinks and food. Sniper worked on his gun polishing it, making it worked properly, Soldier went in search of bread for some unknown reason. Pyro was no where to be found which was okay with the entire team, Spy went to his study beginning to read a book with some tea. Medic and Engineer were testing out a new type of weapon that could snap freeze a person solid.

Engineer was tightening a screw on the machine while Medic fixed some of the inner components.

"Hey Doc think it'll work this time?" Engineer asked
"I do not know, but it must or how will we ever freeze our enemies?" He asked with a smile

Engineer then tightened the last screw and then Scout came in.

"Hey what are you two eggheads doin?" Scout send sippin a beer
"We have just found a way to freeze our enemies" Medic answered
"Is...that okay?" Scout asked hesitantly
"Yeah, why wouldn't it?" Engineer asked
"Pyro might not like this idea"

The two paused in their actions glancing at each other.

"What he doesn't know won't hurt him" Medic reassured
"Okay if you want to bet your ass on it" Scout shrugged

Medic made adjustment after adjustment and Engineer made sure everything was secure. Medic got a extremely sinister smile across his face.

"Now Engineer let's start her up!" Medic ordered
"Alright Doc"

They start the machine it begins to rotate as it loads.

Garage

Heavy and Demoman were sitting in their chairs eating sandwiches and drinking beer. That was until Demoman saw his last beer went missing, beginning to look for it he heard another bottle looking back he saw Heavy drinking a beer.

"Hey! What the hell you think ya doin!?" He asked in his thick Scottish accent
"I drink beer" Heavy answered confused
"That was my beer ya bloody bastard!!" He shouted
"No it was not it is my beer"
"Now you lyin bout it!!?" Demoman accused
"Who you calling liar!!?" Heavy said standing up

Gun Shop

Sniper was washing his rifle with a rag making sure it was in proper condition. Soldier was tossing a grenade up and down while also making gun sounds with his voice.

"Uh Soldier I don't think that's a good idea mate" Sniper said looking up from his gun
"Don't a pansy maggot!" Soldier said looking at him
"I'm just saying if I'm goin to die I don't want it to be by some bloke playin wit grenades" he said gesturing to him
"Uh never seen it that way"
"I'm suprise you see anything" he whispered
"What was that maggot!?"
"Nuthin, nuthin at all"

Spy's Study

Spy could hear the sound of Heavy and Demoman fighting throughout the base. Sipping his tea and flipping through the pages of a book.

"Imbeciles" he said taking a sip

Lab

Medic and Engineer were now about to fire the weapon with Scout there just to watch.

"Okay here it goes!!" Medic shouted in excitement
"Ready, fire-"

That's when Pyro came in with an axe and started to swing hitting everything around him.

"Pyro! Calm down!!" Scout shouted

His muffled screams along with his frenzy attitude made it hard to restrain his actions. He then hit the freeze ray knocking it off the table breaking it into overload.

"Oh no it's goin into overload!!" Engineer shouted
"Then do something!!" Scout shouted
"How!? When this damn phsyco is swingin!!" He said gesturing to Pyro

The freeze ray couldn't handle the power going through it and soon enough blew freezing everything and everyone in the base. Every member of the mercanary company was frozen in their current action, Heavy and Demoman were frozen as they were fighting for a beer, Sniper was frozen looking the scope of his gun, Soldier was frozen tossing a grenade up, Spy was froze while reading a book, Scout, Medic, and Engineer were frozen while trying to restrain Pyro. How long they would be like this? No one knew, but they would have to wait for someone to find them.

A Few Decades Later

Winston had activated the recall for all Overwatch agents to return to active duty. He was looking through his info banks seeing what Reaper was trying to obtain when he attacked. That was when he heard his speedy friend come in.

"Winston! Where are you love!?" She said
"Up here Tracer!" He answered sitting in tire chair

She teleported her way up to the upper level finding and soon giving him a hug from behind.

"It's been too long, love!!" She said with much joy
"Yes, it has" he said with a heavy chuckle

A beep was heard as a notification that Athena had found a lead on what Reaper was after besides every agent in Overwatch.

"I've found what he was after Winston" Athena informed him
"Athena! Nice to see you" Tracer greeted
"The feeling is mutual Miss Oxton" Athena greeted back
"Sorry to cut the pleasantries, but Athena what did you find that Talon wanted?" He asked a bit anxious
"Forgive me, Reaper and those of his Talon associates were after a very old document" she answered

That was when some of the others came in as well, Mei and Reinhardt entered with Pharah Torbjörn behind them.

"Winston my friend how are you!?" Reinhardt asked
"Hehehe good now that I've seen you guys are alive and well!" Winston said with a chuckle and smile
"So why did you activate the Recall?" Torbjörn asked causing the room to get tense

Tracer and Winston jumped down to the lower level with the rest of their friends.

"Talon came and attacked my home, but not without cause"
"What were they here for?" Mei asked
"....They came here looking for documents"
