Chapter 12: Laugh at the face of death
Gunfire ring out at the hallways of the hospital as we see some dead bodies of innocent people and Omnics laying on the floor or injured as they are trying to find a place to hide from the gun battle.
Seconds later bullets fly out around the corner and then Y/n and Angela rush around the corner and making a run for it while Y/n turns back and fire his SMG at the incoming Talon soldiers that come around the corner as Y/n shot a few while the rest return fire.
Soon the two find some cover as Y/n fired his SMG at the Talon soldiers and taking them out while bullets fly by him as he gets down and then radios in his team.
Y/n: I need some back up here, got some Talon forces on our backs, need some help.
Benjamin: (radio) Talon forces has block the hospital sir, we can't get in.
Dillon: (radio) We'll try to get inside but at the mean time you three are on your own.
Sora: (radio) Be safe sir.
Y/n: Don't worry, we will. Yo Mask, situation to report?
Mask: (radio) Holding my own here. I'll try to get away as soon as possible and regroup with you.
Y/n: Roger that.
Angela: You shouldn't have come here. He wants me and I may deserve it.
Y/n: Yeah you say something about your the one that made him or something?
Angela: Well not technically made him but I made him to become a monster.
Y/n: How- (bullet fly by him) Shit!
He return fire, taking out a fre Talon soldiers when Reaper came around the corner and turn as Y/n open fire gum but the bullets gone through him which he pulled out under twin shotgun and open fire at him.
A shot hits Y/n by the shoulder which started to bleed out as he grab his shoulder and called out.
Y/n: Fuck!
Angela: Are you okay?!
Y/n: Yeah I'm good. Come on!
They make a run for it while Reaper growls in frustration and disappears in a puff of smoke while the two make their way to another hallway which the two enter one of the rooms and once inside they were breathing heavily while Y/n groan a bit of the pain of his shoulder which Angela walked over and check on him.
Angela: Here, allow me to heal you back up.
Y/n: Sure, thanks Angela.
He sat onto the bed while Angela gather as must tools she needed to heal him while the two were slient a bit until Y/n ask her.
Y/n: So can you explain what is this thing between you and Reaper? Why does Reapee wishes to kill you?
Angela: It's because of my reckless action which resulted the birth of Reaper and a death of a old friend.
Y/n: So Reaper was a human before he became this.....smoky death being?
Angela: He became something that symbolised true death to all those who come across him.
Y/n: Right. So, who was he before he became....Reaper?
Angela was slient at first as she goes over to Y/n ans start removing the bullets out of his shoulders and place them into a metal tray when Angela tells him.
Angela: He used to be our old friend back in the day. He was friends with everyone in Overwatch during and after the Omnic crisis. He lead a special black ops team and lead them into different missions.
Y/n: Black ops team? You mean Black Watch? So does that mean Reaper is....?
Angela: Yes. Reapee is indeed Gabriel Reyes....Well was Gabriel Reyes. He took part of Moira's experiments which turning his body into clouds of black smoke and allowing him to teleport. At first things were okay but that's when we noticed some chances around Gabriel that seems off for him. He start to be aggressive, ignoring orders and goes out of his way to do what he thinks is justice which upsets the citizens and this cost cracks of Overwatch's destruction.
Y/n: But I don't get it. If Moira was the one who give him the powers, then why is Reapee going after you?
She then took out the last bullets out and after that clean up the wound with some water and then wrap around bandages around him while she tells him.
Angela: Disbite him having these abilities he was still human until......our base was destroyed. I've search everything for Gabriel and Jack, hoping to find them but I onky find.......Gabriel.
(Flash back)
(Flash back ends)
A tear run down Angela's face while Y/n sat there shocked to hear all that as the two fall silent after that. They were quiet for a while and then Y/n glance over to Angela, take a deep breath and then ask.
Y/n: So.....this....."thing" which is Reaper is now here, in this Hospital and its here to seek vengeance.
Angela: Yes. My reckless action creature a being that has nothing but hate and has a desire to kill anyone or anything around him. It's the reason I didn't wish to bring back Overwatch because....how will they accept me once they found out that I created it and how will they forgive me of losing Gabriel.
Y/n: Angela it was never your fault. You try to save him which resulted to Reapers birth but......it was never your fault in the first place. You did your best as a medic and try your best to save him.
Angela: I keep telling myself that....but still....I did what I've done.
Y/n: Then let's make sure it will never happen again. You may not wise to return to Overwatch but we all needed you and I'm not gonna leave you here just so you can be killed by him. I'll keep you safe, trust me.
He smiled at her while Angela looks up at Y/n ans blushes a bit hearing all that to a man she just met and right now may have fallen in love to him. Then they hear movement outside as Y/n leaves the bed and walk over to the door and place his ear onto the door and hears Reaper calling out for her.
Y/n: Looks like he's here. Stay here, I'll go and confront him.
Angela: No! He's too dangerous and he will kill you!
Y/n: (smirk) I'll be fine. Not afraid of death anyways.
He opens the door and walk out as he go into the hallway and look around and then turn to his right to see Reapee staring at him so he turn to him.
Y/n: Hey there Reaper....or should I say Gabriel.
Reaper: So she told you about me did she.
Y/n: Yeah she did and I came here to ask. Why? Why doing all of this? You've betrayed everyone you ever cares for, betrayed Overwatch, betrayed Jack, betrayed Angela and basically betrayed the world! How could you do this?
Reaper: They deny me of anything and I did everything to please them but it resulted me to not getting what I want.
Y/n: So what? I never get what I want but disbite that I'm still here. Okay I kinda got a badass team but still, I never cry about it.
Reaper: You could never understand how it feels to have people walking all over you. How they treat you nothing but dirt and how no matter how completed missions I have done, they never seem impress.
Y/n: You know that's not true.
Reaper: You could never understand because your just new at all of this. A soldier who was thrown away like trash but your squad leader and left for dead.
Y/n: True I may have died....but I've come back this time protecting others, even if the world sees me as a War criminal, I'll protect them until I am proofing innocent.
Reaper: Do you think the world would believe you?
Y/n: (smirk) Well they can't trust a emo guy with a scary mask and wielding two shotguns, that's for sure.
Reaper growled while the two stare at each other and then Reaper pulled up his twin shot gun and open fired at him which he move out of the way and then rushes towards him and try to kick him but he goes through him but he turns around and strike a punch which made Reapee to stumble back.
He fired more shots at Y/n but he move out of the way and then kick one of his shotgun out of his hand and then it landed on Y/n's hand as he aim and says.
Y/n: (smirk) Time to dance.
He fired a few shots at Reaper while Reapee return fire as he turn into smoke and fly away while Y/n keeps firing before he ran out of ammo so he drops it onto the ground.
Y/n: Well that was fun until it lasted.
He walk over to the room where Angela is at as he look inside to see her alright.
Y/n: You can come out now. He's gone.
Angela: (surprised) So you stood up and make him run away. That's impossible. No one dares to try to fight him on one on one without any military armor.
Y/n: (smirk) Well I laugh at the face of death.
Mask: Sir!
Then Mask rush over to the two as Angela leaves the room as Y/n ask Mask.
Y/n: Everything alright?
Mask: All enemy forces are no more and the area is clear. The rest are waiting for us outside.
Y/n: Right. So wanna come back Angela?
Angela thinks about this for a moment and then look at Y/n and then nodes.
Angela: Of course. I'll make things right in any means necessary.
Y/n: (smile) Good to hear. Let's head home then.
(Sometime later)
They return back to base as we see Axio shaking Angela's hand with a smile on his base while Y/n was at his office.
Axio: (smile) It's so good to finally see you after a long time Angela.
Angela: (smile) I can say the same to you Axio. Look how much you have grown.
Axio: (smile) Thanks and thank you too Y/n and well done. How is your new team?
Y/n: (smirk) Pretty badass.
Axio: (smile) Glad to hear that. Take a break Y/n, you and your team deserve it.
Y/n: Roger that.
Both he and Angela leave the room and before Y/n walks off, Angela calls out to him which he turn while she approaches him.
Angela: Thank you for saving me. I never met a brave soldier who will face death itself just to save a life.
Y/n: (smirk) Well Ghosts don't have fear in them.
Angela: (giggle) I see why. Say if you need anything and I mean anything, you cone and visit me and we have a nice chat.
Y/n: (smile) Sure thing.
Angela smiled and then kisses him on the forhead and then walk off while Y/n blushes a bit but smiles a bit and head off to find someone which he did. He finds Ash sharing his sword as he approaches him.
Y/n: Hey Ash....can we talk?
Ash: Sure. What is it you wanna talk about?
Y/n: Look.....I know Reaper is Gabriel.
Ash stopped sharing his sword and then Y/n goes on to say.
Y/n: Don't ask me how but I wanna know how you found out about him or you knew that Reaper was Gabriel. I wanna know how you found that out?
Ash let's out a sigh and then he drop his sword beside him and then tells Y/n.
Ash: I found that out 3 months after the fall of Overwatch. I was hunting down members of Talon, believing they were the ones that ended Overwatch and killed my team leader. That's when I was face to face with Reaper. I battled him and during the battle, it cost his mask to be taking off and I see his face. Gabriel's face. I was shocked ans stunned which gives him a chance to kick me off and escape. I was confused, shocked and angry. He betrayed us and was the one that ended Overwatch. Since then, I wish to get my revenge on Reaper for what he has done.
Y/n: Damn I'm so sorry about that.
Ash: It's fine. At least you know the truth now.
Y/n: Does Axio knew or.....?
Ash: I think so but......he doesn't want to believe it. Still I was wondering you and your new team do a small favour for me.
Y/n: Sure, what is it?
He then handed him a picture of the members of Black Watch with Gabriel and Moria being X out and it was only two members as Ash as him.
Ash: I want you to find Genji and Mccree for me. I got some location to where they are and I want you and your new team to find them and bring them back here. Can you fo that?
Y/n looks down at the picture and to Ash and nodes as he smiled at him and said.
Y/n: (smile) You can count on us man.
Ash: (smile) Thanks man.
The two smiled at each other and then Y/n heads off to get some rest before he goes out to find Mccree and Genji and bring them back for Ash.
