Developing an Arsenal: Overwatch (The Unit)

A V-TOL warship travels above the skyline of Cairo. A package sits inside that is marked with the famous Overwatch symbol. The Unit sat down across of each other as a table projects a holographic display. It is currently projecting a small version of the Overwatch commander.  As General Lawson explained to Morrison what his team found at route 66 and informs why they need to be in Egypt, Morrison remains silent for a minute before giving his two cents of the conclusion.

"I see why you're taking part of this current mission. However, I didn't assign any other snipers for the mission except my second in command, Ana Amari. "

General Lawson's eyes widen in amazement. "I hear great things about her. There is no way in hell she would be the type of person to kill criminals in cold blood and disobey orders. She would be the more supportive type of sniper, ruling out the big game hunter motif. Right Grief?"

Atticus nods in acknowledgement as he cleans up his red shades.

Morrison nods in agreement. Then, he awkwardly scratches his head. "Lawson, something came up and you are not going to like it."

Lawson moves close to the holographic projector. "What is it? Are things peachy between you and your friend, Gabriel?"

Morrison shakes his head. "No, I don't want to talk about that.  It is about the mission. There has been a change of plans."

"What do you mean?"

"The United Nations have just informed me your squad can't perform operations internationally until you guys complete your investigation into Overwatch."

Lawson almost let out an outburst. The United Nations didn't mention that when he accepted their request to investigate Overwatch. The lack of transparency is getting the best of his anger. "Are you serious? We need to be in Egypt. We cannot find our contact killer without missing an Overwatch operation. Morrison sir, we need to find the soldier in Overwatch that is souring up the organizations reputation."

Morrison lets out a hand. "I understand. I have taken the liberty to request extra uniforms for your team to blend in. Your pilot picked them up from Overwatch HQ before he grabbed your men at your safe house. Look, I don't want to do this behind the UN's back, but you guys are on to something and the sooner we can find the cancer, the better."

General Lawson looked up to the ceiling for a minute. For once, he would have to do something very shady in order to get to the bottom of what is causing the trouble inside the organization. If The Unit finds out what's the problem inside Overwatch; Overwatch will earn the trust of an influential country that can change most viewpoints of world leaders, and world peace will continue on throughout the globe.  The rewards are definitely worth the risk for The Unit to get their hands dirty.

Lawson looks down to the holographic figurine of Jack Morrison and nodded in confirmation. "We will do this. Once this is done, we will never talk about it."

"Thank you General." Morrison said with gratitude "Get you and your men to strap on to the Overwatch combat suits and I will help you coordinate with your team. We are about to head in to a facility at this address and rescue the scientists that have knowledge of an artifact that Talon have been getting their hands on. It would be nice to have a secondary strike team to clear the building for us to move in and reach the hostages. Plus, it would make a good cover assignment for your team."

"No problem." Lawson acknowledges before turning off the holographic communicator before turning towards his team. "Units, open the packages and suit up. Consider yourselves Overwatch agents for a day." Lawson says with a jokingly sarcastic expression.

The soldiers opened the boxes and strapping on a blue jumpsuit with blue armor wrapped around the shoulders. The Overwatch symbol displays proudly on the left shoulder pads. As the zip up on the back of the suit, the field soldiers of The Unit are ready to blend in to continue a investigation on the field while helping their friend at Overwatch once again.
