Winston was lying on the ground some 10 feet away from a giant, melting ice wall leaning dangerously to one side. He sat up and gazed at the destruction that was caused.


"Damn," Winston said under his breath. What he saw was a deep crater about 30 feet deep, at which he was at the outskirts of. He just noticed then the amount of rubble and dust he had stuck to his fur and brushed it off quickly.


"I caused this," he whispered to himself; and surprisingly he smiled a horrible, regretful smile. The black hole cannon had worked just the way he thought it would, and that was good. Unfortunately Bill had to get in the way and use the cannon for evil and to kill his friends, but hey what can you do.


He stood on all fours, just about to try and find everyone when he heard a familiar voice.


"Hey! Winston! Over here!" Tracer screamed loudly. Winston turned to look at the Tracer and found her at the lead of a small group. Behind her was Mei, Junkrat, Torbjorn and Emily. Tracer pulled away from the group and zipped to Winston


"So glad we found you buddy! We've been looking everywhere for the rest of the team." Tracer said when she got to him.


"Have you found any of them?" he asked.


"Ya actually. Most of the team met up a safe distance away from the crater, where Ana, Mercy and Moira are healing them now," she replied, "There were a couple still not there so we were sent to find them. And look who we found!" She said this last thing loudly, directly at her group that had come up behind her.


"Hey Winston," Mei said, "Glad to see you."


"You sure? Even after I caused all this?"


"Of course silly! Your only mistake was making a device that could create black holes, you had no idea how it'd be used," she replied consolingly. Winston felt a little better after that.


"You want to come with us Winston?" Tracer asked.


"Sure," Winston said, "Who exactly do we have left?"


"After you?" Tracer asked herself, "I think the only person left is..." She didn't continue, because she didn't want Emily to start crying again, but the pause heavily implied "Bastion."


Winston nodded and said, "Alright then." They moved on.


When they reached the crater, Emily lagged behind as the others started down the slope. She stood at the edge of the crater looking in, fearful that no matter how hard they searched that Bastion would just be a bunch of rubble. Junkrat noticed this and stopped as well.


"Your friend did an amazing thing..." Junkrat said.


"Yes, he did," Emily said piquedly.


Junkrat turned to her and said, "You did an amazing thing too... you saved my life. Your girlfriend, the one that killed me before, she may have gotten me but it was really you and your friend that saved me from the black hole. I don't think I can ever really put into words how thankful I am, but I will never be able to repay you for it."
