Chapter 10 - Chapter 10

While wandering Junkertown, Jack found a secluded junkyard with a high ledge overlooking a spiky pit of scrap metal. There was scrapped cybernetics of various mechs and broken armor and guns. jack put on his gunboats and decided that this area looked perfect.

Location Discovered: The Bone Yard 

Reward: 3 loot boxes

"Huh, never knew I could discover locations but why didnt i get a reward for discovering JunkerTown?"

(Late Reward) Location Discovered: Junkertown

Reward: 4 Loot boxes

Well, that's nice, might as well open the boxes, i should have a nice number of boxes that I haven't opened yet. The bone yard has great spots to jump around, and nobody is going to bother me here.

(classic unbox sound)

1 strange Machina sniper rifle, ooh that'll be good against armored foes.

1 strange part, not very useful but maybe I can use it for a robot.

1 full metal drill hat, well I guess when I switch my class to engineer and make some robots, I can make my robots get dressed, at least that's what I'm hoping it lets me do.

1 Sammy cap, I wonder if this counts as infinite food.

1 festive backburner, are my loot crates from random loot boxes? they must be if I'm getting random crap like this

1 strange neon annihilator, well I guess this is a sign that I can stop for now.

Jack looked at the random weapons in his inventory and sighed. Two weapons for pyro and some other crap.

Jack decided to just start testing the rocket jumping. He aimed his rocket launcher at his feet and fired.

BOOM

Jack flailed his arms as he went flying into a pile of scrap.

Argh, hell that hurt. That took 23 health away, glad I was wearing the gunboats. 

Jack summons the Medi bot which starts sending a blue Medi beam towards him, and he starts getting to full health. He looks at his bruised legs and noticed how the clothing also gets repaired under the beam.

"Huh that seems useful, might as well keep jumping"

Jack began jumping between rusted towers of scrap, flinging himself all around. He failed a lot, but with his trusty Medi bot, he got back up and soon got a lot more maneuverable in a rusted environment. Hours seemed to pass as Jack continued practicing. Every mistake taught him something. Sometimes he angled the rocket wrong and barely left the ground. Sometimes he launched himself far higher than intended and spent the entire jump regretting his life choices.

Soon the sun kissed the horizon, and Jack had enough of near-death experiences and walked back to the tavern to get some rest. He trudged back to Junkertown with a slight spring in his step with his shovel at his side.

He entered a rusty alleyway and a large form stepped out of the shadows. A large junker with a rusty robot arm swung at Jack. Jack hastily blocked the blow with his shovel and went flying out of the alleyway.

"Of course, I ran into a thug in an alleyway, that's where they live."

Jack unholstered his capper pistol and aimed it at the junker. He squeezed the trigger and laser bolts went and sunk into the flesh of the junker. The junker looked down at the holes in surprise before being vaporized into ash as Jack kept pulling the trigger.

Jack looked at the capper in surprise, "Huh so this is an actual laser pistol and does vaporize people, damn that's OP, please don't nerf"

Jack brushed himself down and walked back to the tavern, his mind going along happily while a part of himself is in fear of what he is becoming.

Jack walks into the bar and grabs a meal at the bar. He pays for the food with some good scrap and parts. Jack walks upstairs and enters his room and checks his loot. He locks up the door and goes to sleep to prepare for the arena match and hopefully meet some overwatch characters.
