Chapter 2: Talon

(Oyo, Nigeria. Year 2076)

Akande watched as his apprentice was kneeling panting from exhaustion with his hands covered in fist wraps that now had dirt and dry blood on them. "Kuna inganta (You're improving)" He said while having a small smile on his face which made Brendan chuckle a bit. "Wataƙila zan ma wuce ku (Perhaps I'll even surpass you)" He said as Akande chuckled as well. "Za mu gani, Ku buge ni! ( We shall see, Now strike me!)" He commanded.

Brendan stood up and charged at Akande and jumped up throwing a punch, which his master blocked, before immediately kneeling and swept at his leg that Akande blocked and kicked him back. "Tsinkaya (Predictable!)" He yelled out before throwing a punch of his own that Brendan blocked but grabbed the back of his shirt and tossed him in the air. Brendan immediately flipped in the air before performing a dive kick.

Akande moved out of the way before jumping up and bringing his arm down. "Seismic Slam!" He called out as Brendan widen his eyes before rolling out of the way, seeing that the ground cracked where he once stood. "Tsine (Damn)" He said as Akande chuckled. "Dole ne ku san lokacin da za ku bugi maƙiyanku kafin su bugi ku (You must know when to strike at your enemy before they strike at you.)" He said as Brendan nodded.

"Zo, mu huta (Come, Let us rest)" Akande said while walking into a hut that they had in the Ibadan forest as Brendan followed him in. "Na yi farin ciki cewa da gaske kuna daukar darajan ku (I'm glad that you're taking your training seriously)" He said as Brendan smiled at him "Na ce ina so in zama mai horar da ku, kuma na kasance mai mutuntaka (I did say I wanted to be your apprentice, and I was serious.)" He said while Akande nodded "Hakan kuwa kayi (That you did)".

Akande sat down on a makeshift bed and crossed his legs. "Gobe ​​za mu je London, Ina bukatar ganin abin da ƙungiyar ta ke yi (Tomorrow we are going to London, I need to see what my organization has been doing)" He said as Brendan nodded and sat down as well "Shin za mu iya yin zuzzurfan tunani? (Can we meditate?)" He asked as Akande chuckled and nodded "Lafiya (Okay)".

(King's Row London) (Brendan's P.O.V)

My master and I got off of an aircraft that he called in and walked to a building that had soldiers all over the place. "Wannan ne hedikwatar Talon? (This is Talon headquarters?)" I asked as he nodded "Wannan kungiya ce da nake jagoranta, da kuma tuna yin magana da turanci (This is the organization that I lead, and remember to speak English)" He said as we walked into a room that had four people inside seated at a table.

"Doomfist, who is this boy?" The omnic asked as the woman looked over at me "Was this the apprentice that you spoke about?" She asked as I could hear a slight accent, depicting that she was of Irish descent "Yes he is, He brought me back to health after the mission I went to do in Nigeria" Akande said as the man in the dark hood looked at me "He looks weak" "At least I'm trying hard to be threatening" I said as the woman chuckled. "Is maith liom é cheana féin (I like him already)" She said in a language I didn't understand.

"How old are you boy?" The omnic asked me as I crossed my arms "Eighteen" I said as he nodded. "Well if Akande is training you, then welcome to Talon my name is Maximilien," He said as the hooded man also crossed his arms. "Reaper," He said and I looked over at the woman who gave me a smirk "Moira O'Deorain," She said as I nodded. "My name is Brendan, I don't remember my last name," I said as they all stood up and began to walk out.

Moira put her hand on my shoulder "I'd like to talk to you later, Dathúil~ (Handsome)" She said and then walked away as my master pat my back "Zan nuna maka dakinka (I will show you to your room)" Which I nodded and followed after him.

(Sometime later) (Normal P.O.V)

Brendan was currently walking down the hall before hearing a door open on his right and looked over and saw Moira. "Brendan just the person I was looking for." She said as he noticed she was now wearing a black dress shirt with a purple tie and white pants. "What for?" He asked her. "I want to show you something," She said and pulled him inside "What is it you need to show me?" He asked her.

"Since your the apprentice of Akande, I made you some weapons for your hands and feet when you're in combat," She said while bringing him over to a table that had a pair of arm and leg gauntlets.

"These look nice, What can they do?" She chuckled. "They make you move faster than you've already had and if you charge the force that you put in your attacks, it could make you destroy a building," She said as Brendan crossed his arms. "How did you manage to make something like this?" He asked

"I'm a woman of science, I can do anything," Moira said while he chuckled "Whatever you say," He said as he picked up the gauntlets and put them on before feeling a mask on his face and hummed. "I feel...stronger," He said while throwing a few practice swings, feeling the force and speed of his attack increase "What can I do to repay you?".

"I'll think of something later, but as for now you may go," She said as he nodded and walked out of her office as she smirked to herself "D'fhéadfadh do aisíocaíocht teacht níos luaithe ná mar a cheapann tú~ (Your repayment may come sooner than you think~)" She mumbled before walking over to a bunny that was shaking in fear.

(Timeskip)

Brendan was currently on the very top of the Talon headquarters, practicing the gauntlets that Moira gave him, before hearing the sound of some kind of hook hitting the building as he looked over and saw a woman jump into the air and then land with a soft grunt and stand up fully and caught a look at her.

Noticing that she had a strange skin tone, either purple or blue, wearing a skin-tight purple suit with a visor on her head along with heels and piercing dark yellow eyes that made it seem like she was looking into his soul. He also noticed that she had a sniper rifle in her hands that she aimed at him. "Who are you?" He asked her.

"I should be asking you that," She said with a French accent as he chuckled a little. "Isn't it polite to give your name first?" Brendan said in a smart ass manner that made her glare harder "Widowmaker" The now named Widowmaker said as he nodded "Brendan" He said while crossing his arms "So you're the proclaimed best sniper assassin? I don't see what's so special".

Widowmaker shot her sniper at his head, before watching in shock as he tilted his head to the side to dodge the bullet. "Gotta be quicker than that," He said before walking off and into the elevator as he left her alone. Widowmaker watched him walk away before letting out a small chuckle "La mouche est entrée sur le web de la veuve et est maintenant piégée dans son jeu~ (The fly has entered the widow's web and is now trapped in her game~)". She whispered in French before diving off the rooftop.

(Brendan's Room)

He was currently in his room setting everything up, before hearing his door open and close which made him look over and didn't see anyone. "Hello?" He called out confused before seeing a TV that he had turn on and have a purple skull on it.

Brendan crossed his arms before his senses went off and immediately turned around, feeling someone whisper in his ear. "¿Extráñame? (Miss me?)" A female voice asked in Spanish before giggling. "¿Te asuste? (Did I scare you?)" the voice said as he looked around "Who are you?" He said as he saw a pinkish-purple glow and a woman appeared in front of him with a teasing smile.

"You can call me Sombra Hermoso (Handsome)" She said and then circled him. "I have to admit I didn't expect someone like Akande to have an apprentice, what'd you do to impress him?" She asked while poking him from time to time. "Told him the truth and helped him back to health," Brendan said while pushing her hand away, slowly getting annoyed with her. "I would've expected something more interesting," She said to herself.

"If that is all you wanted to know then can you leave?" He asked her as Sombra held her hands up "I understand when I'm not needed, but one last thing" She said before reaching up and poked his nose "Boop" She said before waving and disappearing.

(With Sombra)

She appeared in her room after setting up a camera in Brendan's room. "Has llamado mi atención~ (You have caught my attention~)" She said before looking over at the screen and poking it "Boop".
