Match 21006 Tron Bonne vs. D.Va

[JohnnyChany]

 

In the Bonnes' cluttered living room, the three siblings were glued to the screen, watching the final moments of an Overwatch tag-team battle royale unfold. Each Bonne had picked their favorite duo. They cheered as the combat grew more intense and only two teams remained standing.

TEISEL: Come on, D. Va and Pharah! Show them how it's done!

TRON: No way! Mei and Reinhardt have this in the bag. Mei’s a scientist and a genius, there’s no way she can lose.

BON: Babuu!

Teisel grinned at his baby brother, Bon. 

TEISEL: Ha! You were just rooting for Winston and Tracer because you like the look of that big monkey man!

Tron shot Bon an appreciative nod. 

TRON: At least you have good taste. I appreciate that you were cheering for a man of  science, Bon, even if it was for the wrong reasons.

The final teams clashed in an intense, last-ditch effort to secure victory. D. Va skillfully activated her Defense Matrix and blocked a barrage of icy projectiles from Mei. Pharah launched herself into the air. She rained down several rockets on Reinhardt, who held his shield up to protect his team. But Pharah's relentless onslaught cracked Reinhardt's shield, forcing him to take cover.

With a sudden burst of speed, D. Va propelled her M.E.K.A. forward. She outmaneuvered Mei. In one swift motion, she launched her Micro-Missiles, striking Reinhardt and Mei simultaneously. The two heroes went down, and the victory screen filled the broadcast with a holographic D. Va flashing a victory sign.

TEISEL: Yes! I knew D. Va and Pharah would pull through! No one can match that pair.

Tron scowled and folded her arms tightly. 

TRON: Tch. Mei and Reinhardt would’ve won if it weren’t for that pink publicity machine. D. Va’s just some loser gamer who was gifted a mech.

TEISEL: Tron, she’s way more than that. And that ‘pink publicity machine’ just wiped the floor with your precious Mei.

BON:  Babuu!

Tron shot Bon a look, then sneered. 

TRON: No. My team may have lost, but D. Va is still overrated. Her mech isn’t even half as advanced as what I build. She’s a casual gamer who got famous on beginner’s luck.

TEISEL: Sounds like someone’s just a sore loser.

TRON: I’m not ‘sore.’ In fact I know I can out-pilot that wannabe in any situation, one-on-one. Maybe she’s some hero to the Overwatch fans, but I bet if she faced me, I’d expose her as nothing but hype."

TEISEL: Wait. Are you really thinking about challenging her just to prove a point?

TRON: Yes. Exactly.

Teisel’s protests that Tron should focus on the family business of being an air pirate fell on deaf ears. Tron immediately took to social media. She posted video challenges, designed memes, and dropped messages across every Overwatch forum and network, baiting D. Va into a one-on-one mech duel. Her posts taunted Hana Song’s skill, and insisted she “couldn’t handle a real mech fight.”

Within days, the internet was abuzz, and soon enough, D. Va accepted Tron’s challenge.

A week later, in an abandoned arena Tron had secured far from Overwatch’s typical locations, the two young women finally met. Cameras were set up, and Tron’s hired announcers were ready to broadcast every second to the virtual crowd.

Tron grinned from the cockpit of her mech, Gustaff, which loomed above her brothers and her camera crew. The machine's green armor gleamed in the sunlight, and its arms bristled with weapons, from drills to launchers. 40 servbots surrounded Gustaff, ready to assist Tron in battle. 

D. Va’s M.E.K.A., painted in vibrant pink with neon decals, stood across from Tron, with its Fusion Cannons charged and ready.

As the virtual crowd tuned in, Hana stepped forward from her mech to address her challenger.

HANA: Tron, I accepted your challenge because it was becoming too much of a distraction, but you should know the Overwatch tournaments we do for the public is just a show to keep spirits up. Our real mission is to keep the world safe from…

TRON: Spare me the hero talk. I didn’t come here to hear some backstory. I came here to beat you and show the world what a real genius’s mech looks like.

HANA: I think you’re seriously underestimating what I can do.

TRON: I expect you to give it your all, and when you fail I will even offer the creator of your machine some tips on how to build a real mech.

Hana climbed into her M.E.K.A., and the machine’s systems powered up around her. 

D. VA: Alright, Tron. I’ll let my piloting do the talking.

TRON: Glad to hear it. Let’s see what you’ve really got.

EXHIBITION ANNOUNCER: Ladies and gentlemen, we have an epic showdown for you tonight! In the left corner, it’s the brilliant inventor, Tron Bonne, piloting her custom battle mech, Gustaff! Known for its impenetrable armor, devastating drill, and unmatched versatility in combat, the Gustaff is the pride of the Bonne family!

The virtual crowd erupted in cheers as the cameras panned over the Gustaff, The camera zoomed in on its impressive weaponry and Tron's confident face behind the controls.

EXHIBITION ANNOUNCER: And in the right corner, we have the South Korean sensation, Hana Song, better known as D. Va! Piloting her state-of-the-art M.E.K.A., this pink powerhouse is equipped with twin Fusion Cannons, a high-tech Defense Matrix, and an arsenal of Micro-Missiles. D. Va’s piloting skill has made her a fan favorite, but will it be enough to take on the mechanical genius of Tron Bonne?

Tron grinned with hands steady on the controls as the arena fell silent. Across from her, Hana tightened her grip on her M.E.K.A.’s controls. Her eyes were steely with determination.

EXHIBITION ANNOUNCER: Combatants, are you ready?

TRON: Ready to win.

D. VA: Let’s get this over with.

EXHIBITION ANNOUNCER: Then let the battle… BEGIN!

D.Va should have this. Tron Bonne is a very cool character and I like her quite a bit, but if you need help realizing Hana's ingenuity and battle mech skills look no further than her own cinematic. Tron Bonne might be the smarter one, but I don't think she has the battle hardened wits needed to take her.
