King's Row... A place of constant conflict for Omnics. Yet I still live here among all the violence.

Today was no different.

"Hey girl!" A man said as he grabbed my arm. I gave him an indifferent look as he pointed to an Omnic that was being terrorized by a few others. "I want to know your opinion on this..."

"I'm just trying to get home from work." I said with a bit of a sigh. "This doesn't concern me."

He frowned at me as he dragged me closer to the Omnic. I tried to pull my arm away but his grip was tight.

"You see this?" The Omnic looked up to me with a weak look. I recognized him as one of those Omnic monks. Maybe I should help. No... Too many people are around. "It's going to take your job!"

"Look I don't care." I said as I finally ripped my arm away from him. I held both of my hands up to him. "I'm not going to participate in this."

The man looked angry as he grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and lifted me off the ground. "No wonder you won't pick a side! You're part Omnic!" The men around him turned from the Omnic, who wasn't going anywhere, to me.

"I don't side with anyone. Not one want's me anyway." I said as I tried to keep the fear out of my voice. Maybe this isn't a normal day.

"Oh sure..." He said with a sick chuckle. "Maybe people like you need to know their place!"

"People like me?" I said as my fear faded and anger appeared. "What does that mean?"

"People like you and the Omnics that will destroy us!" He said before slamming me into a nearby wall.

My breath left me and I slid down the wall onto the ground next to the Omnic. He gave me a concerned look as I held my side.

"Are you okay?"

"Me?" I gave him a stunned look. "I was going to ask you the same question..." The group was closing in on us. "I'm perfectly fine, actually!"

I reached up a pushed a button on my glasses to activate an interface that allowed me to see if my Omnic parts were functioning properly, along with a few other things. Then I clap my hands, both of which are Omnic by nature, together and a humming sound could be heard.

"Don't come any closer." I said as rubbed my fingers together, causing a few zapping sounds.

"What's that girl?" The man that targeted me asked as he took a step closer. "A taser?"

"Kinda." I said as I clenched both my hands shut. "It's quiet shocking what it can do." I shot them open with a chuckle, sending arks of artificial lightning at them. The five men were hit and they started to convulse.

They collapsed in heaps as I got up and put my hands in my jacket pockets again.

"Are they dead?" The Omnic asked with a concerned tone as I looked over to him. I made sure the weapons that were my hands were shut off before I helped him up.

"No." I said as I was about to get my phone out to call the police. A sound to my right made me stop.

"The Calvary's-" The female voice with a thick British accent stopped short as she appeared in our sights. "Did you kill them?" She asked as she trained her guns on me.

"No." I said again as the Omnic tried to take a step. He collapsed slightly but I held him up. "Wow you're heavier than you look!" I said as I struggled to keep him up.

"Who are you?" The woman asked as she took a few steps closer to me. She looked down at the men, one of which groaned at her feet. "What did you do to them? Zenyatta, are you okay?"
