Widowmaker sat on a rooftop sniping targets.
A war is starting and a city where Talon has a base is at risk of being attacked. So they have decided to destroy the city and the base itself while taking out targets of interest before they leave. And that is Widowmakers job
"I am the perfect assassin, and still" She said to herself when saw a blue trace in the corner of her eye.
"Am I interrupting you luv!?" said a voice behind her.
She turned around and pointed her rifle toward the girl with short brown hair.
"Oi! That's not how you say hello!" Tracer said and jumped to the side pulling out her pistols.
Widowmaker just grinned. It was not her normal cold grin, no this had emotion in it.
She and Tracer have fought many times. But over time it had gone from being out to kill one another to become more of a game.
They felt strangely attracted to one another.
But due to Widow having problem to fully understand the little bit of emotion she feels.
And with her being with Talon and Tracer with Overwatch did not help.
They fought for a while ducking and parrying each others attacks almost like some sort of dance.
But they were soon interrupted by a large Boom! Coming from the streets below.
It was the military arriving to get things under "control".
"Shite that's not good" Tracer said.
"Well until next time petite fille." Widow said as she prepared to fire her grappling hook.
"No don't go yet!" But just as Tracer said that a rocket struck the building and she was knocked of the roof.
Widowmaker looked around and saw Tracer falling unconscious down towards the streets below.
"Foolish girl." She said to herself as she fired her hook and swung to help her.
But just as caught her in the air a shock wave from another explosion knocked them into window of a building and Widow was knocked out as well.
Tracer came to first.
"Ao that hurts!" She said as she sat up
"A well at least I broke nothing." she said after checking her limbs.
"But how I'd end up here in this building?" She said and looked around.
She remember falling but nothing more. Then she see Widowmaker laying unconscious on the floor next to her. She quickly check to see if she was still alive.
"Hard to kill as usual right luv" She said relieved.
She was more sure over her feelings towards Widowmaker.
In the beginning she could not understand why Widow would do the things she do.
To kill people with no remorse and no emotions.
But after learning what Talon have done to make her so cold and effective assassin, she wanted to help Widow find her emotions again.
But in the end she did end up falling in love with Widow.
"Emotions are not an easy thing to understand right luv" she said stroking Widow on her cheek before standing up.
She walked towards the windows and looked out on to the streets below.
The battle had calmed down a bit and moved on to another part of the city.
The streets were close to be completely destroyed and the surviving civilians were trying to collect anything of value.
Why did things have to end up this way?
Why must the innocent pay the price?
Tracer thought to herself.
When Widowmaker came to she slowly looked around and saw Tracer standing by the window.
Why do I feel drawn to that girl?
Why do I feel this?
I should not be able to.
These feelings are just in the way are they not?
She thought to herself.
She slowly sat up and inspected her gear.
"the grappling hook is broken and rifle have received minor damage."
Nothing else seems to have taken a great deal of damage.
She then looked back towards Tracer.
She could easily end this right now. Just aim and pull the trigger.
But she could also just have let her fall to her death before. But instead she decided to save her. Why? She could not fully understand why.
But she wants to understand. Maybe that's why she saved her, and why she won't pull the trigger now.
When she stood up Tracer noticed her.
"Morning luv!" she said as she turned around.
Widow just gave a nod in reply.
But just before Tracer was able to say anything more Widow told her to be quiet.
She heard something and soon Tracer heard it too.
Coming from the floor below they could hear. Two or three soldiers and one of them ordered.
"Search and kill any Talon agent you find!"
"Shite." Tracer said quietly and looked at Widowmaker.
" Follow me." Widow said as she started to look for a way out.
"Ayay" Tracer replied and followed her.
They soon found a fire exit on the back of the building. But just when they were about to open it. The soldiers found them and opened fire.
Widowmaker and Tracer just barely made it out and into the forest area near the city.
" Oi where are we heading?" Tracer asked after they had been running for awhile.
" To one of my safe houses." Widow replied.
Why did I tell her to follow me?
She is my enemy.
I should kill her yet.
Why do I feel drawn to her?
These feelings what are they?
Widow thought to herself.
They soon arrived at the safe house.
A small little hut.
It had one small room with a bed and a bit of storage. There was also a small kitchen area and it had electricity.
" It's not my best safe house but we will be safe from both Talon and the military here." Widow said as she turned on the lights.
" Are you not going to report in to your superiors?" Tracer asked.
" I am supposed to be quiet for a few days after this mission. So I do not need to report yet. But what about you? Should not be heading back to Overwatch?" She replied.
"Yeah I should but there is no hurry to get back." Tracer replied and sat down on the bed.
Widowmaker signed and went for the kitchen.
"What? You don't like my company luv?" Tracer said with a childish fron.
She did not answer instead she asked.
"Why do you keep following me? This is the third time this month that we have fought. What are you after?"
She started to prepare some canned food she had standing in the fridge.
Tracer did not reply immediately. She just looked at Widowmaker for awhile.
She could see her beautiful spider tattoo on her back.
Yupp she is definitely my type of girl. She thought to herself.
"Well maybe I've just fallen for ya." She finally said with a huge grin.
Widow just froze. She said what? She have fallen for me?
"Don't be ridiculous. how can you have fallen for someone like me." She finally said and gave Tracer some of the food as she sat down on a crate opposite to her.
"And why not?" Tracer replied.
"For the first I am with Talon I'm the villain and you are the hero, and the second I am a killer an Assassin. How can you fall for someone like that?" Widow replied.
"Assassin yeah you are but you are not the only one here who have killed before ya know." Tracer said.
"Yes that is true. But you also protect people I only kill" She said.
"True but may I ask. Why are you with Talon? Why are you the villain really?" Tracer asked.
Widowmaker could not really reply. Talon was the ones who made her into Widowmaker. Her real name or rather the person name that she was before was Amélie Lacroix.
She has no real memory of who she was back then to her Amélie is dead now she has no other name besides Widowmaker.
But did she have any real loyalty to Talon? Is she really locked to be the villain?
She could not answer this. And Tracer knew that this was a hard question for her so she said.
"There is no need to answer the question now. But I do expect an answer at some point luv."
"Just finish your food so can go to bed" Widow said a little annoyed.
Tracer just grind.
"You can take the bed." Widow said after they had finished eating.
"Where are you going to sleep then luv?" Tracer asked.
"I can sleep on the floor." She replied.
"No that ain't right there is room for two. See I'm not that big." Tracer said
Widow just looked at her as she showed that Widow would fit next to her.
She really did not know what to do.
Why?
Why do a part of me actually want to lay next to her?
Why do she trigger all these emotions?
Did they not belong to Amélie?
I have never had emotions before.
She did eventually sat down on the bed next to her.
"Anything wrong luv?" Tracer asked.
"No! go to sleep now." She replied as she laid down next to her.
Tracer grind again and looked at Widow.
"Yeah this is nice." She said quietly.
Widow just ignored her and fell asleep.
