I honestly have no idea of what to say other than I really love the ship and I think it's not getting enough exposure like the other ships. It only took one curious image search to climb to the top of my favorite ship in the Overwatch fandom. I'm sorry WidowTracer, but you've been bested. So this is basically my first take on a solo, "origin" fic and I really hope you guys enjoy it. I also have two other ideas in an AU but I better not get ahead of myself just yet. Tell me how I'm doing in the story and whether if it's another mediocre story, or I brought shame to the ship.


An Offer You Can't Refuse

Hana waddled along the hallway of the building, with as much as effort as possible. Her weary eyes barely managed to provide a low field of vision in front of her. She halted her walk and gripped the wall for support. Letting out a small groan, she took a sip of her bottled drink before resuming her journey.

Within the first step, her balance broke, and her entire body came crumbling down. It all occurred so fast, but in her eyes it took ages. Without a single clue, her body was suddenly levitating in the air.

"You alright, luv?" Lena wondered in concern as she held her small figure by the torso.

Hana released a painful and a weak groan before responding, "I'm fine."

Lena helped her back to her feet and gripped her shoulders for support. "You sure?"

Hana gave her a small smile and waved her hand in dismissing. "Yeah, nothing new. Just had to do a charity stream for thirty hours to raise money for Numbani, that place is a mess. That Symmetra chick needs to take a better care of her country."

"Uh, Hana, Symmetra is from India." Lena corrected her with a worried tone.

"What? Nah, really?" Hana chuckled in a shaky tone. "You're pulling my leg, ain't you?"

Lena bit down on her lips and snatched the can from Hana's hand. "I think that's enough energy drink for one day."

"Ha, Joke's on you! That's my eleventh one." Hana laughed softly as her weak legs almost gave up aiding her upper body.

Lena's eyes grew wide, and she immediately grabbed her by the arm and dragged her ahead. "Okay, missy. That's enough fun for you. Time to hit the hay, luv."

Hana moaned effortlessly but allowed Lena to take control and lead her to her room. Her eyelids would give in now and then, but Hana fought back to keep herself awake. She was close to her cockpit and was soon going to be sleeping in her comfy clouds that bestowed from heaven.

"And we're here." Lena cheered as she managed Hana towards her room.

Hana released her arm around her and replied with a long yawn. "Thanks, Lena, you're a lifesaver."

"No, worries, luv." Lena flashed her with a smile and entered the code of her room. "Just holler if you need anything."

"Will do." Hana yawned again and entered her room, a wave of relief washing upon her mind. She locked the door behind and laid her eyes on her objective, her bed.

Before Hana could take another step, she rubbed her baggy eyes and gazed with a more precise vision. Her pupils grew wide, and her skin turned pale. "Y-you...!"

The individual Hana was pointing at was casually laying on her bed, waving at her with a grin. "Yup, me."

Hana's sweaty palm moved towards her belt and drew her pistol. With adrenaline rushing through her system, she demanded, "Don't move!"

The person raised her hands halfway through the air as her grin stayed glued to her face. With a swift move of her fingers, a line of purple illuminating texture shined on Hana's pistol, tinkering with its circuits. "Hacked!"

Hana raised a brow and squeezed the trigger of her firearm, but nothing happened. She pressed the trigger a few times more and ended with the same results. With a shocking expression meeting an amused smirk, Hana slammed her fist against the console next to her door which acted as a distress alarm.

But the speed of the other individual was superior as she managed to get her glowy pixel hands on the console before Hana's knuckles collided with it. "Hacked! Double points."

Sweat dripped from her forehead as Hana slowly turned to this mysterious woman who somehow succeeded in infiltrating Overwatch defenses and her private security. "What do you want from me, Sombra?"

Sombra laughed in response and jumped off the bed. "Relax chica; I'm not going to eat or anything." She slowly and carefully made her way towards Hana without a single sign of hesitation. "I just came to see my favorite Overwatch hero."

Hana narrowed her eyes and hissed, "Bull."

Sombra shrugged and replied, "Eh, was worth a try."

Hana kept a fair distance between them while keeping her gaze locked on her. "What makes you think you'll escape with whatever you stole?"

Sombra landed a finger on her chin and tapped it with a hum. "Well, maybe I don't want to leave. I grew fond of your room and your bed."

Hana casually circled Sombra as she warily watched her movement. "Is that so? Well, I'm sure you'll love the cell beds too."

"I doubt it. It won't be the same." Sombra somberly sighed as her purple eyes examined Hana's steps. "What are you trying to accomplish again?"

Hana quickly grabbed the nearest object she could found, her bedside lamp, and drew it closer to her face. "I'm not going down without a fight."

Sombra fixed her with a smirk and responded, "That so? I already said I wasn't gonna bite," her tone switched to mellow one before adding, "Unless you want me to."

A light pink blush sprayed Hana's cheeks as she shook her head violently. "Stop with the lewd mind games!"

Sombra giggled and took a seat at the edge of the bed. "Little bunny, how easy it is to get inside your head. I wasn't lying when I said you were my favorite."

"Oh please," with a roll of her eyes, Hana groaned. "Kill me now."

"And where's the fun in that." Sombra stared down at her wrist and commented, "If anything, we could help each other."

Hana cramped her eyes as the grip on the light tightened. "As if!"

She fixed her with a brow and flashed her with a smirk. "You sure about that, conejita?" Sombra tapped her fingers on her holographic keyboard and produced a tiny dark purple cube of pixels. "You know what this is?"

Hana raised her brows in confusion and looked closer to examine the object. "It's a...?"

"It's every single information in the Overwatch database down to every last detail inside your "advanced artificial intelligence" or Athena as you call it," Sombra explained, with a wave of her hand the light textures disappeared. "Courtesy of Sombra."

Hana found it hard to believe her weak attempt at threat and kept her guard up. "As if I'd believe a lying, cheating hacker."

"No?" A sly smirk crawled its way around Sombra's lips. "Are you sure about that, DorritoGirl69?"

Hana's blood turned cold, and her heart skipped a beat. Heavy breathing was let out of her lungs as her world began spinning. "How did you-"

"What part of 'hacker,' do you not get?" Sombra walked toward her and took the lamp away from her frozen body. "We can't have this break now, can we? It was a gift from your friend after all."

Hana could feel her legs giving up as her body dropped on the bed still in shock. "Did you...?"

"If you're wondering if I went through your private stuff, no. I'm not a monster." Sombra placed the lamp down and took a seat next to her. "I just extracted them."

The room was violently spinning in the eyes of Hana. Her entire life she tried her best to separate her private life and personal information away from the world. As a celebrity and an international hero, a simple leak could ruin her entire life in a blink of an eye. "What do you want?"

"Simple, a few weeks back, you and your peasant team attacked us in Castillo, my home is there," Sombra explained in a solid tone. "Was. It is now a pile of rubbles."

Hana fixed her with an eyebrow and questioned, "I thought Talon had a secret base."

"They do, but everyone needs privacy," Sombra answered with a wink and instantly receiving a dirty look from Hana. "So, I need a place to stay in."

"So? I'm sure Talon has a lot of guest rooms of your choice." Hana replied with a roll of her eyes.

Sombra smirked and cooed, "Nah, too boring. I want someplace special and share it with a 'friend.'"

It took Hana an entire minute to fully understand what Sombra was saying. Staring through those sharp and glowy lilac eyes, she felt her willpower escaping from her body. Instantly, her eyes grew, and her jaw dropped down. "You're insane!"

"I'm pleased that you understand, little bunny." Sombra chuckled and dropped on the warm sheets of the bed.

"Hey, get up! I didn't agree to anything." Hana exclaimed furiously. "What makes you think that I'll let a member of Talon, not to mention a pain in my butt, stay the Overwatch headquarters."

Sombra twirled with her hair and gazed into Hana's eyes. "I don't know. Are you seriously willing to let your friend's secrets and lives fall into the hands of Talon, jeopardizing their life forever?"

Hana bit down on her lips anxiously. "I won't let you; I'll stop you, somehow. My friends will help."

"Really?" Sombra fixed her with a brow and chuckled. "And how are your friends gonna help you if their lives are hanging by a thread, the scissors are in my possession, conejita."

"Then why don't you leak them already and destroy Overwatch?" Hana questioned her with a stern glare. "Isn't that what Talon always wanted."

Sombra smiled from the corner of her lips and replied, "Patience, little bunny. First things first, I don't want to hide in Overwatch, the place is as boring as Talon." her lips twitched as she soon added with a charming tone, "I want your room."

Hana's heart skipped a beat. "M-my room? Why?"

Sombra took a moment to look around the room before shrugging, "I dunno, I feel like it."

Hana folded her arms and groaned, "Well, too bad. You can't have my room."

"Then it seems we're gonna have to share it, roomie," Sombra said as she fixed her with a sly smile.

"Now hang on a second, don't I have any saying in this?"

Sombra thought briefly and replied, "Hm, well we'll be sharing, so I guess it's only fair."

"We're not sharing anything!" Hana exclaimed irritatingly. "I don't trust you. So what makes you think I'll let you stay any longer in my room let alone sleep in it."

"You don't; you'll just have to take my word for it," Sombra said with a devilish smile. "It all falls into your hands, Hana Song."

Hana opened her mouth to protest only to close it slowly. She needed to think of the next words very carefully; Overwatch depended on it. "How long are planning to stay."

Sombra chuckled and lightly punched her in the shoulders. "I knew you'd come around. We can braid each other's hair, tell spooky stories, troll people online-"

"How. Long!" Hana interjected her with a venomous hiss and a sharp glare.

"Two weeks, three max," Sombra answered.

"And you swear you won't leak the intel."

Sombra smiled at her. "Aww, you look cute when you're angry. I just want to pinch you." To which, Hana growled furiously. "I'm kidding. I won't leak anything, but in the end, it depends on your hospitality."

Hana growled mildly but responded after, "Fine, whatever."

"Cool." Sombra clapped her hands joyfully and continued, "So what should our first activity as newly roomies be?"

Hana climbed into her bed and responded in a grumpy voice, "Well I, need to sleep. And I don't care what you do just as long as you don't touch my step up, computer, console, closet, snacks, or the rest of my stuff."

Sombra pouted in displease and groaned, "Booo, you're no fun. And where am I supposed to sleep?"

Hana pointed towards the couch and back to her bed. "Your side, my side."

Sombra looked over the couch and shook her head in disbelief. "Really? I'm supposed to be your guest." She turned her around, only to be smacked in the face with a soft yet hard object.

"Fancy enough, princess?" Hana growled in irritation. "Now, shut up and let me sleep."

Sombra chuckled and grabbed the pillow. She climbed down from the bed and jumped onto the couch. "Hm, comfy." She laid the pillow at the edge of the couch and rested her head on it. "This looks like the start of a wonderful friendship, wouldn't you agree Hana?"

"Shut up!" Hana responded with a bossy cry. Sombra, however, chuckled in amusement and closed her eyes.


Hana moaned tiredly from her heavenly mattress. At the corner of her eye, she read the alarm clock and rubbed her eyes. She slept for fifteen hours and yet she still wasn't satisfied. "What a weird dream."

"Tell me about it."

Hana yelped in shock and almost fell from her bed. Her eyes traced the source of the voice and spotted Sombra laying on the ground with her feet crossed. "W-what are you doing?"

Sombra gave her a shrug and replied, "Eh, just passing the time."

Hana's gaze stayed locked on her as she pulled the covers closer to her body. "It wasn't a dream..." She mumbled to herself.

"Afraid not," Sombra chuckled and looked down at her lap. "By the way, you snore."

"I do not!" Hana exclaimed, feeling embarrassed. "And is that my portable console?! I told you not to touch my stuff." She quickly jumped off the bed and snatched it away from her hands.

"I was playing that," Sombra stated irritatingly.

Hana groaned and placed her gamepad in her drawer. "Well too bad. Not everything is for you to touch. Be grateful I'm not making you sleep on the floor."

Sombra chuckled and stood up. "Aww, as if you would."

Hana crossed her brows and fixed her with a glare. "Try me."

A knock on the door broke the two girl's staring contest, sending shivers down Hana's spine. "You alright, luv?" Lena's voice followed behind the knock.

Hana's eyes grew vastly as her heart's pace picked up. "No, no, no, no..." She rushed towards the door and made sure it was locked. "Just a second." She called and turned around to address Sombra, but she was nowhere to be detected. "Sombra, where the hell are you?"

There wasn't a response, which confused Hana. Scratching the back of her head, she entered the combination of her lock, and the door opened.

Lena gave her a wave and greeted her with a smile. "Hiya, Hana. Whatcha up to?"

Hana stood in the middle of the door and responded with an awkward smile. "Yeah, um, this isn't the best time Lena. Is it okay if you come back later?"

Lena waved her hand and scoffed playfully, "Hana, all you do all day is play video games, with the occasional leaving your cave for supper. I doubt you're busy."

"Yeah, I kind of, am." Hana shifted her body around, attempting to block Lena's field of vision. "Like super busy right now."

Lena raised up and eyebrow in suspicion towards her act. She folded her arms and gave her a stern look. "Whatcha ya got there?"

Hana chuckled nervously and flashed her with a forced smile. "Nothing, honest! I just have to go. See ya."

Before Lena could protest any further, Hana locked the door. She pressed her ear against the metal board until she was sure Lena left. Letting out a weary sigh, Hana dropped her body along the door and sat on the floor.

"Great performance, roomie." Sombra suddenly reappeared in the room while giving her a slow clap. "Perfecto."

Hana grumbled something unintelligible under her breath and gritted her teeth. "Where did you go." It sounded more like an order than a question.

Sombra rested her hand on her chest and softly gazed at her. "Aww, you missed me already?"

Hana didn't look as close as for how amused Sombra was and continued glaring at her. "Answer me."

"Relax, conejita. Your friends won't find out about us if that's your concern." She waved her palm in front of her face, and her body started to fade into textures until she was gone. "Stealth is my middle name."

"There is no us! And do you even have the last name, to begin with?" Hana wondered as she attempted to locate Sombra.

"Of course I do," Sombra stated, laughing in amusement. "I didn't just suddenly appear from thin air."

Hana paused for a moment before addressing her again. "Well? Are you gonna tell me?"

"In time, little bunny. First I need to be sure of something."

Hana bit down on her lips and stood her guard, no doubt the hacker was plotting something. "And what might that be?"

"I need to know if I can trust you, as my friend." Sombra suddenly reappeared in front of Hana, causing the girl to jump in surprise. She reached her hand and playfully tapped on her nose. "Boop."

Hana immediately slapped her hand away and growled at her. "Whatever. I didn't want to know your stupid name anyways."

"Sure." Sombra fixed her with a mocking grin and nodded her head. "You know, I'm more useful to you as a friend than an enemy. What do you say chica?"

With a groan, Hana walked pass her and sat on her bed. "Yeah, why not. You already blackmailed me, invaded my privacy and took over my home. Not to mention all the times you blew my mech, or ejected me out of it just for the hell of it."

"I know, classic." Sombra briefly laughed as she took a seat in front of Hana on the couch. "We already shared so much in the past, so why not be friends. You never know, I always have surprised up my sleeves."

Hana folded her arms, and with a roll of her eyes, she responded, "And how do I know you're not using me. So far you've only raised my suspicions and the desire to blow your head even more than usual."

With a smile, Sombra shook her head and remarked, "How about a trust test? You fall backward, and I'll catch you."

"I'd rather throw myself off the headquarter." Hana wittingly replied.

"Hana, Hana," Sombra shook her head as she stood up. "You're not giving me a chance here. Since my words won't be enough, let my actions do the talking."

Hana watched as Sombra spread her arms towards her. She was confused and suspicious but mostly curious. If Sombra was plotting something against Overwatch, Hana needed to play along. With a sigh, she got up to her feet and turned around. "If you drop me, I'll shoot you until you look like swiss cheese."

"Deal."

She heard Sombra chuckling but ignored it almost instantly. Taking a deep breath, Hana hesitatingly kicked her feet off the floor and let the gravity pull her body down. Surprisingly, she didn't feel the solid ground smacking the back of her head. Instead, she was floating in the air as Sombra's arms caught her and held her by the torso.

"Told you I was gonna catch ya," Sombra smirked as her lilac eyes fell on Hana's brown eyes.

Hana felt the heat rising to her face as Sombra's face was merely inches away from hers. She panicked. Her body jerked uncontrollably and slipped from her grip. She fell to the ground but could barely feel any pain from the short drop.

Sombra leaned down towards her, still smirking. "You okay, Hana? You look like you have a fever. Do you want me to take your temperature?"

Hana's cheeks burned crimson red, and she quickly swatted Sombra's palm away. "I'm fine!" She rolled away, as far away from Sombra and climbed to her feet.

"Aww, what's the matter friend." Sombra cooed with joy and added, "Gato got your tongue?"

"Just-" Hana waved her arm at her as her mind failed in finding the right word. "Shut up!"

Sombra laughed at her misery for a short time before approaching her with glee. "What's the matter, we're just friends. Nothing to be ashamed of."

Unlike Sombra, Hana was furious. She wanted to yell at her, but that would make things worse. "Fine! If I agree to be your friend, will you drop it?"

Sombra's series of laughter came to a stop as she fixed her with a brow. "Is that so? You'll be my friend?"

It pained Hana to utter the words, but her hands were tied. "Yes, Sombra, I want to be your friend."

Sombra took a seat on Hana's bed and said, "Very well. So what should we do first, friend?"


Hana knocked on the metal board impatiently. The banging sound spread across the entire hallway. And it wasn't until she received a response from the other end that she stopped.

The massive door opened and Hana took a few steps back. Standing on the other side was Winston, lazily rubbing his eyes. "Miss Song, to what do I owe this displeasure?"

Hana's cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Clearing her throat, she greeted him with a sheepish tone. "Hey, Winston. Sorry to bother you. I hope you weren't busy."

Winston sighed and slowly shook his head. "No, it's alright. How may I help you?"

"Right," Hana slowly nodded her head and explained, "So, the other week you suggested that you had this malware that could help my mech against hacking and such."

Winston nodded back and walked in the door. "Please, come in. You can brief me more about your situation."

Hana gulped anxiously and hesitatingly walked inside. "Yes, well I'm wondering if the offer was still on the table."

Winston took a seat in his chair and pressed the keypads on his keyboard. "I see. What changed your mind? I thought you said that you didn't need one."

"Yeah, well, times changed." Hana bluntly replied, earning another nod from her friend. "I realized that it wouldn't hurt to be careful."

Winston chuckled to himself and fixed her with a friendly smile. "I'm glad that you finally considered my offer. I've always had an eye candy for highly advanced tech, and your MEKA is a fascinating piece. I'll have Athena install the program in no time."

Hana smiled in relief as a she felt the massive weight lifting from her shoulders. "Thank you so much, Winston. Though can you do me another solid?"

"Ask away."

Hana fished her phone out of her pocket and offered it to Winston. "I'd like you to malware my phone as well."

Winston took her phone and linked it to his computer. "You're acting very cautiously right now; it's a good thing."

"Yeah, all about that safety." Hana laughed awkwardly, and so did Winston, minus the awkwardness.

A few moments later, Winston finished his task and happily declared, "And we're finished." He unplugged the phone and handed it back to Hana.

"And you're sure that no one will be able to hack it?" Hana inquired, verifying his work and examining the phone.

"Absolutely. It is state of the art firewall and completely impenetrable." Winston confidently explained. "No computer in the world can bypass the security."

With a big smile, Hana gave him a quick gratitude hug and ran through the door. "Thank you so much, Winston." Dashing out of the room, Hana was determined to reach her cockpit as soon as possible. She deliberately ignored her teammate's callings and apologized hastily. Leaving Sombra alone in her room could be very risky.

She arrived in front of her door, panting and sweating heavily. After making sure that no one was around, she punched the codes and entered her room. Letting out a sigh of relief, Hana scanned the room for Sombra and found her on the couch, tinkering with floating holographic textures.

"What is all that?" Hana admired the sight of the tech in awe. Holographic technology wasn't something new; a mere child could muster it. But producing a fair amount out of thin air was eye-catching.

Sombra stopped her tapping on the fake keyboards. Turning to Hana, she fixed her with a smile. "Pretty cool, si. I'm working."

Hana raised a suspicious eyebrow and walked closer toward Sombra. "Working? You mean sending Overwatch secrets to Talon."

Sombra replied with a chuckle and smiled, "Chica, not everything is about Talon and Overwatch. I'm just catching up with the world."

Hana narrowed her eyes before taking a seat on her bed. Her guard had to be entirely up all the time now that Sombra was occupying her room. "Right."

"Also, your friend Lena is wondering if you're free tomorrow," Sombra stated in a dry tone, while casually browsing through her work. "Should I text back and say you're busy?"

Hana's eyes grew wide. Her heart rapidly beat as she searched her pockets for her phone. Once the phone was in her hands, a purple skull covered the entire screen. "H-how...?"

Sombra stopped and swatted the bright windows away from her face. "Your monkey friend's technology, though impressive, is no match for mine. Granted, it did double my usual hacking time, but then again, four minutes is nothing to be worried about."

Frustrated, Hana gritted her teeth. Her blood was boiling as a migraine began taking over her head. Shooting Sombra with glare, she hissed, "I hate you."

"Aww, is that so?" Crossing her legs on top of each other, Sombra flashed her with a smug grin. "And I thought that was behind us. I thought we finally trusted each other."

"How am I supposed to trust you if you keep hacking me and invading my privacy." Enraged, Hana threw her arms into the air and exclaimed.

"How am I supposed to trust you if you keep plotting behind my back." Sombra smug dropped to a straight line as she deadpanned. "If you wanted me to stop, all you had to do was ask."

With a scoff, Hana folded her arms and groaned, "Like that would change anything."

Sombra fixed her with an eyebrow and tapped her fingers on her illuminating computer. After a minute, Sombra closed the floating screen and locked eyes with Hana. "It's done."

"What is done?" Puzzled, Hana inquired from her.

"Your gadgets and tech are off limits now." Sombra declared, adding, "I've protected your stuff with layers of encrypted passcodes that change every minute. No human, omnic, or advanced A.I can go through your stuff without permission. You're welcome."

Hana suddenly was lost for words. Her mind was unable to process the words to describe how she felt right now. She was mostly confused, still angry, and skeptical. "I don't understand."

Letting out a sigh of annoyance, Sombra rolled her eyes. "You said you didn't like me hacking your stuff, so I stopped. Isn't that what you wanted?"

"Yes, but..." Hana bit down on her lips and halted her statement. Shifting her tone instantly, she dryly inquired, "Do you expect me to apologize?"

"No," Sombra bluntly responded. "I'd be worried if you started now. No matter, you keep what you do best, but know I never lied to you so far." she dragged the purple textures and silently resumed her work.

Opening her mouth only to close it, Hana wasn't sure if she should feel sorry or manipulated. Either way, she wasn't going to jump the gun this early. Sombra most likely had an angle and Hana was the primary focus.
