Hello, everyone! I wanted to thank those who followed/favorited and reviewed. I'm glad that you guys liked it. Also, I have decided the main parings in the story: TracerxReaper and one sided MercyKill

Disclaimer: Overwatch belongs to Blizzard.


Angela needed one look at them to realize that the mission had failed. The slouched shoulders and sour expressions were dead giveaways. She wouldn't have bothered Winston now if it weren't an important issue.

"Welcome back! Winston, the UN would like to have a word with you."

The scientist signed tiredly and Angela felt sorry for him. Ever since the Recall, Winston has become the leader of Overwatch. At first the UN wanted to put every single one of them in jail for breaking the Petras act, but Winston convinced them that they are the only ones capable to stop the terrorist acts committed by Talon. They were given a chance by UN thanks to Tracer and Winston for stopping Talon from getting the Doomfist Gauntlet, however they couldn't prove that the terrorist organisation was behind the attempted theft. The shadowy organisation was very careful about how it moved, leaving little to no evidence behind. They've tried capturing Talon soldiers, but they soon discovered that every Talon grunt had installed in their equipment a failsafe that would trigger when a Talon agent died or got captured, disintegrating all equipment and the person who wore it in a matter seconds. Winston tried to disrupt the failsafe, but all his tries ended in failure. They suspected that the only ones without this kind of failsafe were the high ranking operatives in Talon: Reaper and Widowmaker. Sadly their problems didn't stop there. They didn't have the same resources and personnel like they did in the Golden Age, since UN didn't trust them enough to found them properly. Also, there is an issue regarding their leadership. UN pointed Winston to be the leader of Overwatch since he was the one who issued the Recall. He admitted to them that he would never be on the same level as Jack or Gabriel when it came to leading Overwatch, but he promised he would do his best, which was all everyone could ask him at this point.

"Hey, doc. Would you mind looking at my wrist? That cloaked bastard snapped it. I've tried to put it back together, but you're the expert here," Jesse asked her.

"Of course, it's no problem."

"Hey, Lucio. Let's race towards the cafeteria. The loser has to give up desert," said the bright Brit with a smile on her beautiful face.

Lucio smirked. "Prepare to lose," he said and they both dashed towards the cafeteria as the Swiss doctor watched them with a smile on her face

"Come Jesse. Let's take care of your hand."


"You have done well, Reaper. It seems that the failure at the museum was not your fault after all," the hologram of a hooded person told the mercenary.

"Have you got another mission for me?"

"Yes. We have discovered the new location of Doomfist's gauntlet. The details have been transferred to your computer. You have two hours to read through the file and prepare. Note that you will take this mission alone," the figure said and ended the transmission.

The black-clad man wasted no time in leaving the Comm room and got to his quarters to read the file. 'So, the gauntlet is being held in a monastery by a group of omnics monks led by a guru called Zenyatta until the UN finds a better spot for it, in order to improve the humans-omnics relations. My main objective is to get the gauntlet, my secondary one is to kill the omnic guru. Why would Talon want to tensions between omnics and humans to be high? If they keep this up there could be a second Omnic Crisis. Why would they want that? Or maybe they do this as a distraction, to keep the world busy while they work on their own plan? That seems more like it. After all, Talon was a strong organisation and the only ones who could throw a wrench in their operations was Overwatch, with them out of the way nothing could stop them.' Reaper signed and took out his phone and called his contact through the secure line they created.

"Yes," came the monotone female voice from the other side.

"How are the preparations going?"

"Almost done. I need another week."

"Very well. Contact me if something comes up."

"Understood."

Ending the conversation, Reaper went to board the shuttle to his mission. Within three hours he arrived at the temple. 'Odd,' he thought as he surveyed it from afar. 'There are no lights except one room on the second floor. And there are no guards in sight. Are they waiting for me?' Deciding that standing around doing nothing was not going to accomplish the mission, he entered the temple in his wraith form going straight for the illuminated room. When he entered it he saw both his objectives: the gauntlet standing on a pedestal and Zenyatta meditating with his back at him.

"Welcome," the omnic said and turned to face Reaper. "Rest assure that we are the only ones in the temple, I've sent the others away. I was hoping that we could talk. I've prepared some tea, but I'm afraid it got cold."

The black clad man said nothing for the longest moment until he rasped out: "What did you want to talk about?"

"I was hoping I could talk you out of accomplishing your mission. The gauntlet it's a very dangerous weapon that mustn't be allowed to be used again."

Reaper scoffed. "I don't care about any of that."

"Don't you understand? If it's used again another Scourge will be released on the planet. Overwatch barely stopped that time."

Reaper stood silent for another long moment before he responded. "You are right. The weapon is dangerous and mustn't be used again. However without it I can't accomplish my mission. However I don't intend to let Talon use it."

"You are working for Overwatch?"

"Yes," the mercenary lied smoothly. "I've been sent to infiltrate Talon and that gauntlet is essential to my mission."

"How do I know you are telling the truth?"

"I don't have any evidence to give you, you're going to have to take my word for it."

For a minute, none of them said anything and Reaper prepared himself to attack thinking that the omnic saw through his bluff, but lucky for him Zenyatta spoke first. "You are clearly different from other mercenaries I've encountered, you actually listened to me. Very well, I'll take your word. Take the gauntlet."

Reaper surpassed a sign of relief. He took the gauntlet and teleported away, leaving the omnic guru to question his decision.
