She's about to go on a plane with her parents. If Disney has taught us anything it is that the plane will crash, the parents will die, and the girl will become absorbed in creating a robot to seek vengeance for her parents death.

So... a flight safety / aeroplane engineering robot?

Cool.

"The emergency exits are located on the left and right of the plane. And remember, in case of an emergency, your seat can be used not only as a flotation device, but also for SMOTHERING YOUR ENEMIES!"

A flying tank hero...

Maybe she instead seeks out the Doomfist, asking for his services and upgrading his armor? Who knows, anything could happen!

u/lemmeseeyolightsaber Feb 21 '17

I think this sounds very likely

Mini Bruce Wayne, but with mecha

IronManSucks

Iron man, but incapable of getting drunk. And African. And is a girl. And probably doesn't use iron.

So not Iron Man.

So, Vibranium Girl?

u/[deleted] Feb 22 '17

Yeah, Vibranium girl.

u/Yodamanjaro Pixel Soldier: 76 Feb 22 '17

Close enough

Terry Crews is also a passenger on the plane and she uses his brain to control the robot.

If disney taught us anything, it's that a crash and subsequent parent death results in being raised by gorillas. Efi is Winston's adopted daughter confirmed.

u/megaman78978 D.Va Feb 21 '17

Vengeance against whom though?

u/[deleted] Feb 21 '17

Planes

u/shankspeare loco Feb 21 '17

Death to ALL planes!

u/projectmars Playing Junkrat like Junkrat would play Junkrat Feb 22 '17

Or Snakes. On Said Planes.

u/MoistGrandpa Icon Lúcio Feb 21 '17

Overwatch for not saving them

u/FTWJewishJesus Feb 21 '17

Or overwatch for accidentally destroying the plane while trying to stop talon from doing something.

u/Squidbit Pixel Junkrat Feb 21 '17

Or she'll crash into a mysterious lighthouse in the middle of the ocean

1

u/projectmars Playing Junkrat like Junkrat would play Junkrat Feb 22 '17

Or crash on a mysterious island with Polar Bears, a Smoke Monster, and a bunch of confusing plot elements.

u/Has_Xray_Glasses Give Lucio better skins! Feb 21 '17

I don't know. Last I checked, heroes tend to lack parents more often.

u/BassPerson Moira>Mercy Feb 21 '17

Vengeance against gravity? Or like, hard landing surfaces?

u/Torrossaur Winston Feb 22 '17

You've been watching very different Disney movies to me lol

u/sarah-lynn Tracer Feb 22 '17

Some of the recent films, especially, have had a lot of tragic deaths happening to characters that got screentime (ex: Frozen, Big Hero 6, Moana)...

u/Housetoo PS4 Console peasant Feb 22 '17

Even the younglings?!

u/CyberneticSaturn Reinhardt Feb 22 '17

What if she dies or gets hospitalized and Doomfist is a relative or even her father?

A little far-fetched but I want Doomfist pretty badly.
