Chapter 4

Thomas followed some signs that lead to the training room. Thomas slid his key on the door and it opened. The door led to the outside where he saw someone in golden and blue armor strafing some training bots. Thomas started in amazement for about 12 seconds before he asked.

Thomas:Eh, good morning captain Fareeha. Captain Ana sent me here.

Pharah turned around and landed in front of Thomas and took off her helmet. The two proceed to do a quick salute.

Pharah:Thomas heard you survived the great war. Now it's just a simple test to see how you do. Basicly you will be fighting against a few waves of training bots. Now get into position and get your gear.

Thomas: I already got some.

Thomas got into positions as bots started to fire at him. Thomas duck the stun bolts while decimating them with his rifle. Seeing a big group of robots he threw a incendiary grenade that caused the bots to literally melt. Thomas finger was constantly on the trigger. Then a stun bolt hit him and he fell to his knees. The bots surrounded him. What Thomas did next amazed and frightened drew a shovel and proceed to melee 8 robots before being knocked unconscious by the stun bolts. The last thing he saw was tracer and pharah running to him. When Thomas opened his eyes he found that he was in the infirmary again. He looked and saw mercy in the corner of the room reading the news. Mercy noticed thomas was awake

Mercy:You really need to be more careful. Though you are better that junkrat . That man has no sense of self preservation.

Thomas groaned everything in his body hurt.

Thomas: How long have I been out.

Mercy: We just brought you in an hour ago. Lunch is in 5 minutes.

Thomas tried to get out of the bed but his legs wouldn't move.

Thomas: Eh, mercy why won't my legs work.

Mercy noticed and grabbed her staf and walked to thomas.

Mercy: as I suspected the stun bolts damaged your leg nerves.

Mercy pointed the staff at thomas's leg and a golden glow connected with his leg. Thomas noticed a strange feeling of pins and needles in his legs. A few moments later he could feel his toe's twitching.

Thomas: wow! Thanks mercy.

Mercy: no problem if you don't mind I'll go to lunch first.

Mercy left the room. Thomas got on his feet and grabbed his rifle and shovel. Thomas now managed to go the right was this time. When he entered the whole cafeteria was filled except for a space between and tracer. Thomas then went and took a seat next to them. Remembering that he stepped on 's foot he tried to apologize.

Thomas: Sorry about stepping on your foot eliar missy.

All he got was a grunt from who was playing a vidio game. Thomas waved a hand at her but she did not respond. Tracer took notice of this.

Tracer:Don't worry luv, she's always like this when she's in a bad mood.

Thomas: because of me.

Tracer:No, because she's been beaten by some player that calls himself "spycrab".

Thomas was about to eat his lunch when from 's computer came a whistle that triggered a flashback for thomas.

Flashback

Thomas was waiting in the trench ready to march on the german trenches. The whistle came and his brothers-in-arm leaped over the trench and began their march. They thought the germans would be decimated by the artillery bombardment. Instead they were meet with a hail of bullets. Thomas was almost hit by an artillery shell. When Thomas woke up he looked around and saw his comrades being massacred by bullets and explosions. Thomas got up and looked to his right. He saw a wounded soldier and rushed to him. When he got closer he realised it was wilson. People never made friends in the trenches wilson was his only friend. Wilson was bleeding badly from a huge hole in middle of his chest. Thomas realised he was dead when he got to him. Thomas stared at wilson's broken face a panic started to overwhelm thomson. He didn't want to be part of this anymore. He ran to a house that looked like it was on fire. He burst through the door. Thomas just sat down his knees at his head, tears started to roll down his cheeks. He didn't want to fight this anymore. He wanted it to stop.

When Thomas found he sense he found tracer poking him. Snapping from it.

Tracer: Thomas you all right luv. You look like you saw a ghost.

Thomas got abruptly from his seat and ran through the door. He went to the training room and found a bench. He just sat down his hands in his head. Tears were rolling down his cheeks.
