Overwatch Lore - Part 2

Welcome to Part 2 of the Overwatch Lore series! If you missed the first one you can find it here

 

Accusations of corruption and illegal activity are thrown at Overwatch. Their experimental jet fighter, and the pilot, Lena Oxten (Tracer) goes missing. She's later found in a state of chronal dissociation, and Winston begins work on how to fix this.  After he learns how to stabilize her, she starts learning how to use her new abilities. Moira joins Blackwatch during this, and begins her experiments on Gabriel. Blackwatch gets made public, and the Japanese Government files complaints against them. 

 

An Overwatch Facility in Oslo gets attacked, and Strike Commander Morrison refuses to say who. Instead, he says that he does have suspects in mind, and they will be investigating their security measures due to this. Gabriel and McCree meet with Gerard Lacroix in Rome, where they find out that the man responsible for attacking the Overwatch Facility earlier, was the leader of Talon. During this meeting a bomb goes off there, injuring Lacroix and killing many civilians. Gabriel wants to kidnap the leader of Talon, Bartolli, and interrogate him ‘off the record’. Jack advises against it, but leaves it up to him nonetheless... and he does it.  During the mission he realizes that Bartolli has too many connections and he'll end up released. So he does the clearly logical move- find him, kill him, and blow his whole team's cover. Blackwatch gets investigated pretty hard after this, as well as infighting starts within the group, primarily between McCree and Gabriel. Doomfist and Maximilien obtain the power that was once held by Bartolli, after Doomfist defeats Akinjide Adeyem. Akinjide is known as The Scourge of Numbani, and is the second person to wield the Doomfist gauntlet. 

 

The UK Prime Minister refuses to let Overwatch operate inside UK borders now. So again, doing only logical solutions, Gabriel sends McCree in to be a spy. Jack follows suit and sends a whole team in, which consists of Mercy, Reinhardt, Torbjörn, and Tracer. A few years later, Ana is believed to be murdered by Amelie Lacroix (Widowmaker) during a hostage mission, led by Jack. Sojourn gets Genji, Tracer, Mercy, and Winston to come to Havana to help her capture Maximilien, and they do. They investigate him and he informs them that Doomfist will be in Singapore in 3 weeks. They go there and capture Doomfist. The UN starts investigating Overwatch even more after finding out about Moira's involvement in the group. A bomb goes off at Overwatchs Swiss HQ, killing everyone inside, including Jack and Gabriel... or so they say. Overwatch is officially disbanded now as well. 

 

The Second Omnic Crisis begins, Soldier:76 begins stealing from old Overwatch buildings. Symmetra's family business moves some facilities to Rio, where Lucio rallies the people and gains fame almost overnight by fighting back. Talon tries to find Daniel Fernandez, burns down the whole town in the process, and Baptiste leaves shortly after. This brings us back to the reformation of Overwatch...
