The heat of the Arizona desert was dead death all around. Snakes, coyotes, and even vultures. The sun was the greatest enemy to do the massive heat it gives out. Water was impossible to find. The desert night was colder. But, sometimes you'd wish it was warm, but not too warm or your skin would have burn like burnt cookies. Everything was plain. No trees and there was only dirt roads of tracks that the jeeps made. Expect one person was handling the heat just fine, with his cloth around his face and goggles protecting his eyes. His sword carried on his back. His partner loading cargo onto the jeep. The Desert Nomad looked around in case for bandits around the area. Cargo was loaded with weapons, weapons unauthorized. It was there job to get to a warehouse and ship back to L.A for lock up. It was weapons and ammo. So, if they were ambush it wouldn't matter, they also carry weapons and abilities. It was all ranged by the dark lord. Well, that's what the Ninja's partner calls him.
"How are we doing?" The Nomad asked, his partner looking over his shoulder. He stacked the last fifth crate.
"I am surprise the jeep can hold all this cargo. I'll check if there's anything else missing." The Icelandic man said walking back into the shed. The Nomad nods and made sure the straps were on tight to secure the cargo from falling off. He then glances around the area and jumped into the passenger seat with his arms cross. His partner hopped in and started the jeep.
"Everything is ready. Let's hope for a safe drive back to the warehouse." He said as he put the jeep into gear and drove off, leaving the shed behind. As soon they reach a mile the shed exploded. Causing the Nomad to look behind him in shock.
"Don't worry. Boss told me to do it. Nothing bad." He said waving his hand a bit. "Someone could see the smoke, Benji." Nomad said softly. "No one is around for miles, Genji. I know it was reckless but he told me too." He said with a shrugged. The ride was peaceful for an hour. Music was playing on the radio. Of course, they insert a cd. Signal was nothing static in the radio. Good old rock to lighten up the silence.
Genji pulled out the map from the glove box, and unfolding it. Following the lines with his finger.
"I know where I am going, Genji. Put the map back before the wind blows out of your-!?"
The wind rips the map out of Genji's hands as if flew off into the distant as Genji watched over his shoulder. "Hand…" Benji said softly with a sigh and leaned back. Genji looked at his friend. "Sorry, Benjamin." Genji apologies quietly.
Los Angeles, California
. Overwatch HQ Lena's Strike Commander Ceremony
After years of battle. It all came to an end, finally. Everything was now at peace between the two men. No more fights, nor revenge. All thanks to one woman and the rest of the team. Some of them retired. Some continued to lead the renew Overwatch HQ. Every agent was busy doing work and checking out other O.W HQs around the world. In training and in missions with the heroes. Talon on the other hand, did not agree to the partnership with Overwatch to make the world a better place. So again, Overwatch and Talon are still at it. No peace, only war all over again. At least the people can feel safe. U.N left Overwatch as a self-organization. Lead by any other than the New Strike Commander Lena Oxton aka Tracer. She was up for the duty when it was given to her and she has been confident of her new job. Receiving medals and honor awards. Bring the soldier home safe and making sure the civilians were comfortable with Overwatch running again. Her speeches were freedom and promising to the world. And everyone trusted her complete. And now it's her permanent role as the New Strike Commander. She was to continue the role for a very long time. Even though, she was already strike commander, she had to remind herself that she still is.
The old members couldn't be so happy with her. They mostly proud. Including her newly wife Emily Oxton. Who stood by her side during the hard times at being a leader.
"Lena, I can't be more proud of you for what you done to Overwatch. Your old leaders would have been proud of you." Said the General Commissioner of the United States Military. Lena saluted the General with a smiled. "Thank you, Sir." Lena then gave the man a handshake as they bid goodbyes to each other. Emily smiled and clapped her hands excitedly. Giving her wife a big hug. " I am so proud of you!" She said, Lena laughs and hugged her back. "I was so nervous. I felt my legs shaking! If I'd messed up my speech I'd have to recall!"
"But, you didn't! Everything turned out good." Emily said smiling at her. "You did a well job, Lena. Overwatch is doing good so far!" Fareeha said walking up to her in her uniform with five different medals on her chest. Lena smirked, "I see that medal, Pharah. Or should I say Captain Amari." Fareeha smiled and gave a shrugged. "Did you call them?" She asked, Lena frown and shook her head no. "I left a message, hoping they'd listen and come over. But I guess not."
"Oh, I am sure they'll be here, Lena. But, who did you call?"
"Jack Morrison and Gabriel Reyes."
"Are you ready?" The Swiss woman said, looking at the window of the car, there sat in the car with his old Overwatch Uniform with his old medals. Surprised, he still had it. The door was open and a cane was held in her hands looking down at the man. He gave a deep sigh and slowly got out of the car as he lost his balance a bit leaning against the door. She quickly held him up. "Maybe I should have brought the walker." She said softly. He held the cane in his right hand as he took a few steps and gave a sigh. The woman closed the door and smiled at him. "Be careful, Gabriel." She said softly, helping by holding his arm. He sighs, rolling his brown eyes.
"I am fine, Angela." He said, Angela let him go to do it on his own. So far he was doing well. As she took her notepad from her pocket and began writing down her notes on Reyes' recovery. Gabriel couldn't believe he got himself to come here and congratulate Lena for her new role. Instead of him, he doesn't care no more. Nor does it bother him. He didn't want to wear the uniform but he did. So, did Angela and she looks beautiful. He walked up saluting to no one. As for Angela, she'll keep up with him later. Gabriel finally stop leaning against the wall coughing as he quickly took out a napkin from his pocket. He cleared his throat right after and sighs tiredly. Sick and weak wasn't good for him. He looked around for Lena so he could leave. "Where you, you little brat.." His raspy voice said, he tighten the grip of his cane.
"Gabriel?" said the voice of the British woman. Gabriel turned around and looked at the Strike Commander.
"Strike Commander Oxton…" He said, with an impressed voice. Lena smiled and gave the old man a hug. Which caught him by surprised. He blinked, patting her back.
"I am so glad you came, Commander Reyes." He lightly groans at the name.
"Just Reyes or Gabriel, Commander Oxton." He said, giving her a former Soldier salute. Lena returned the salute back and smiled wide. "And you can call me Lena.." She said happily.
"I thought you'd never come. What made you changed your mind? I also thought you ignored my calls." Lena said, placing her hands behind her back.
"Well, Angela made me come and you only called once. I didn't have to even listen to your message, Lena." He said, with a small smile. Lena smiled became even wider. "Angela is here!?"
"Yes, somewhere…" He looked around at the new base. It was different from the old ones. New faces, new smell, and new equipment. "Nice place you got here. It looks different."
"Everything is new! I wanted to look different. You know,"
"Start over..I get it. I could say that I am proud of you, Lena. But I am not.." He replied in his serious voice, staring at her with a serious look. Lena frown and nodded. "I can say, congratulations and good luck. You're gonna need it." Gabriel held his hand out to her. Lena shook without even a good firm on it. Gabriel smiled,
I am looking forward to working with you, Strike Commander Oxton.." Gabriel said, Lena blink in confused but Gabriel just smiled Saying, "When you find my wife, tell her I'll be in the car waiting for her. Goodbye, Lena." He said as he walked away coughing into his napkin again leaving Lena behind with a soft frown on her face. She could tell he was sick and tired. She shouldn't have called him at all if she knew he was sick.
"Goodbye, Commander Reyes.."
