Chapter 1

A familiar face

A sharp ray of sunlight fell upon the young womans face, awakening her from a deep sleep. She sat up and rubbed her slightly sensitive eyes. "Another long day ahead." She groans, getting up to make breakfast.
She lived in a small house, just big enough for her and her dog - Lola. She often feels lonely, but between work and rest there isnt really much time for anything else. Angela has been a doctor for 3 years now, and she's seen everything from a broken toe to a decapitated head - yet still sensitive at heart. Helping people was her calling, it's what she enjoys most- even though its heart breaking sometimes.

Overwatch is now a retired "project" as some call. Most of the members each went their own way, though they do still see eachother occasionally, some havent been seen in years - 4 years to be exact. The world is of course not perfect after all that happend, but the war has ended. Thats all she wanted to happen. Some images still scar her, but she is at peace with all the lives she saved in her time as a field medic.

"Shit!" she exclaims, as she spills orange juice on her casual suit. "And so my Monday starts.." After putting on a formal top with a pencil skirt, Angela bolts to her car and drives off to Gibraltar Memorial Hospital for her first shift of the week.

"Good morning Doctor," Pharah said as soon as she walked in. The waitingroom was already crowded, some people not even having a place to sit. "Here are your patient files for today." She said holding up a stack of papers. Fareeha has been working with Angela since the war ended. Seeing as she praises her mothers footsteps, when Ana officially retired Fareeha decided to start living a calmer or 'normal' life.
"Thank you, Fareeha." She says taking the stack of files from the egyptian woman. "Oh, and I thought you'd want some coffee." Angela knew she smelt the strong flavor of a latte, her favorite. "You're a life saver. Thank you!"

She entered her spacious office. Nothing too fancy, but it has all the required equiptment. The walls were painted a dark beige, with all the furniture being mahogany.

When she first got the office, it really needed some TLC. For a state of the art hospital, her new examination room was such a wreck that all her ecstaticness drained as soon as she first stepped foot in it
She estimates that she has 20 - if not more - patients to see. She takes a deep breath before pressing the intercom button and asking Pharah to send in her first patient of the day.

Not long after, her door creeps open. Angela feels her heart stop as she looks up at the man now leaning against the door frame.
He smirks before his deep voice escapes his lips; "Good morning doctor, or may I just call you Mercy?"

The blonde haired woman started sobbing while holding her hand over her mouth. She stood up forcefully from her chair, causing it to fall down. She ran to the tall figure, wrapping her arms around him.
"Shhh, it's okay" The man says, comforting Angela.

Unexpectedly, she pulls away and smacks him with an open hand. She yells at him through her stutter; "Where have you been Genji? Why did you leave without saying anything? Why -" She couldn't finish her sentence before he grabbed her and held her close.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know how to tell you. I missed you, Angela." He lifted her chin up and wiped her tears. "Wh- Why didn't you write me?" Her sad eyes were enough to make the man tumble.

"I was scared. I wan't sure if you wanted to hear from me, and Zenyatta told me to give you some space, to leave everything behind."
After the war, Genji traveled to Nepal with Zenyatta to find his "True self". Everyone was happy that he would finally have some peace, but no one even had time to say goodbye before the two dissapeard without word.

That was 3 years ago.

The young woman sobbed, barely being able to talk. "You left us all behind that easily? You left me behind so easily?"
"It's not like that - I'm sorry Angela."

Everything felt so surreal. All this time she thought he was dead. Her true best friend, her happiness.

"May I take you somewhere? I want to show you something beautiful."
Angela gives a small nod, she's not sure if she is releaved or angry.
