Watchpoint Gibraltar, 07:00
The president had just sent Jack all of the information in Alex he could dig up, and Jack called an emergency briefing to all of the Agents stationed at Gibraltar, he didn't have any time to waste.
Jack walked into the briefing room where all of the Agents were already waiting for him; they were chatting amongst themselves while waiting for Jack, but as soon as he walked in all the chit-chat halted.
Jack waited at the end of the table with his arms behind his back patiently waiting for dead silence, so we could start his briefing, which fortunately didn't take very long.
"Now, I'm sorry that i called you all here on such short notice, but the situation is dire. I assume you all heard the news about what's happening in the States right now, correct?" Jack asked.
The agents nodded
"Good" Jack said, pulling up a picture of Alex, along with his military records.

Squad success rate: very high
"This is the man responsible behind the Attacks in Addison, and is also the man that outran state patrol on foot He also managed to kill a squad of super soldiers and US army Special Forces. the military lost control of the situation."
"So were going after a single rouge soldier? Seems easy enough" Lena jumped in.
"Now that's not it, before the Omnic crisis he's fought in the most dangerous locations and wars, like North Korea, Somalia, Iran, Afghanistan, Russia and many more. Over his time he's amassed many military Medals like 4 navy Crosses and 7 presidential medals of freedom, and 3 congressional medals. That's more than any other US soldier in history, and that's not even including the Omnic crisis. Now i have a video here sent to me by the president, via helmet cam of one of the Special Forces operatives sent to kill him, take a look"
What followed was a video of Delta force electrocuting him in the forest, and proceeding to EMP all of their weapons, and knocking the gunships out of the sky. And proceeding to gun them down or throw them like ragdolls.
"So no, hes not just a soldier who went AWOL, he's extremely dangerous, on top of his mysterious powers that are clearly shown in this video, he's resistant to bullets, to practically any weapon they threw at him." Jack said.
"So nothing can stop him?" Reinhardt asked,
"No I didn't say that, according to the president pulse weapons seem to be relatively effective" Jack said.
"So why did he go rouge, and why does he have these abilities?" Angela asked,
"I don't know, and the president doesn't know either. But that's not our concern; our only job is to stop him before he causes more harm, and one more thing. This is going to be an joint operation, both Overwatch and Blackwatch will be involved." Jack said,.
"Oh, I'm not sure that's such a good idea Jack, you and Gabriel aren't exactly the best of friends" Ana said.
"No, but for this operation its different, this man is amongst the most dangerous i've ever come across, and we'll need all the help we can get if we're going to stop him." Jack replied.
Ana nodded "Fair enough"
"Alright, let's see here…." Jack said, looking at all the agents.
All of the agents in the room were extremely effective and very talented. They all had experience in the field and had 30+ successful missions under their belt. But this mission would require a special team, a good mix of strength and speed, along with precision.
After about 5 minutes of just dead silence in the briefing room, Jack had finally come to a decision.
"Tracer, Ana, Reinhardt, are you guys up for the task?"
The three nodded.
"Just us?" Ana asked.
"Just you, The president told me that he wants to keep this quiet." Jack replied.
"Well that ship has sailed don't you think? It's all over the news" Lena said.
"Yeah well, it's what he told me, so I'm going to follow his directions" Jack said.
"When are we going to be going on this little adventure?" Reinhardt asked.
"Be prepared to leave in maximum 2 hours, i want this done ASAP." Jack said.
"Reinhardt nodded."
"Alright, you're all dismissed; the three agents I just mentioned go get ready." Jack said.
All of the agents got up and left the room, Jack was close behind, he needed to talk to Gabriel about his involvement.
"Jack?" Angela called, slowly running up to him.
"Yes, Angela?" Jack replied.
"I was just a little concerned, you are sending agents on an extremely dangerous mission, and you didn't want me to go with them, because there's a high chance that one of them will get hurt, or god forbid killed!" Angela said in worry.
"That's exactly why I'm not sending you, you won't be able to do anything if he comes after you" Jack replied.
Angela scoffed "I've been on plenty of missions with these agents, and i'm more than capable of defending myself!"
Jack stopped and turned around, before looking Angela in the eye.
"Angela, this man isn't an untrained terrorist, or some petty criminal, he is a navy SEAL, the best of the best. And if he sees that you are giving HIS enemy medical aid, he will target you, and he WILL kill you. And i can promise that."
Angela didn't have any words, Jack was right; she had no way to defend herself should Alex target her.
"What if I remain hidden?" Angela asked.
"Yeah, that'll be easy with that glowing yellow beam and wings" Jack said sarcastically.
"wh….."
"Angela, we'll talk about this later, i have to go talk to Gabriel" Jack said, before walking away.
"So I'm confused, why do you need my help again?" Gabriel asked.
"because you and I were in the soldier enhancement program, together we can find a way to beat this guy" Jack replied.
"Meh, it seems like the agents you picked out will do the job just fine, how hard could this guy be to stop?" Gabriel asked,
"Gabriel, the news? Or the footage you saw? Of him slaughtering those super soldiers?" jack replied.
"Well, super soldiers aren't what they used to be, during the crisis they were brave and well disciplined, like you and I. But now they're just over confident pricks" Gabriel replied.
"What about the soldiers in the forest?" Jack asked.
"Well, i don't know why they would send in grunts to go kill an enhanced, a Navy SEAL at that." Gabreil replied.
"Gabriel, those weren't grunts. That was Delta force…" Jack said.
Gabriel paused for few moments.
"So, what is it you'll need from me anyway?" Gabriel asked.
"I don't know, to be there as backup if things go south." Jack replied.
Gabriel chuckled. "So you're going to have the elite of Overwatch serve as 'plan B?' Who's you team consist of, cause they better be good" Gabriel asked.
"Ana, Reinhardt, and Tracer." Jack replied.
"Oh, you see there's already a problem" Gabriel said
"Which is?" Jack asked.
"You're having Tracer go on a mission to kill a Navy SEAL, who is more powerful than any super soldier the US has" Gabriel said.
"What's wrong with sending tracer?" Jack asked.
"Same thing as sending in the enhanced….she's too overconfident, and it'll get her killed in the exact same way this guy killed those super-soldiers" Gabriel replied.
"She maybe to over confident, but she has the speed and fire power, I can speak with her about your concern" Jack said.
Gabriel sighed and paced back and forth, not saying anything.
"So..is that a no?" Jack asked.
"I'll help you Jack…But i get to lead my guys separately from you, and you lead your people, i know you're the commander and all but these guys know me, and you know…..have tactics that exceed yours by a mile." Gabriel said smugly.
"I get your drift, and I can make that deal" Jack said.
Gabriel furrowed a brow and held out his hand for a handshake. Jack looked at him for a moment before rolling his eyes, and shaking his hand.
"Glad we could come to this agreement" Gabriel said.
"Likewise, get your guys ready, were wheels up in 1 hour" jack said, before walking off
1 hour later
Ana, Reinhardt and Tracer were waiting by the landing pads, Gabriel and his team, McCree and Genji were also waiting, but they were in a separate group chatting amongst themselves.
"So, were just being sent incase these fellas don't get the job done? Like were plan B?" McCree asked.
"Apparently, something tells me were not going to have to wait very long, after all they want this guy gone ASAP"
"Guess that just goes to show how little faith Jack has in Blackwatch" Mcree said.
Gabriel chuckled. "Are you kidding me? If anything he was more faith in us?"
"How so" McCree asked.
"Because Jack knows that there is a slight chance that the agents he picked won't get the job done, so in case they don't he's sending the best of the best to finish what they couldn't" Gabriel replied.
McCree stopped to think about it for a moment.
"Don't even think about it, you know I'm right Jesse" Gabriel joked.
"Shut up" McCree muttered, Causing both Gabriel and Genji to chuckle.
The talking was interrupted as Jack approached the landing pads, dressed in his combat armor, goggles and blue trench coat.
"Oh, you're coming with us, Jack?" Ana asked
"Of course, who knows a super soldier better than another super soldier?" Jack replied.
"Can't argue with that!" Reinhardt said.
"No, no you can't, now everyone on the ship, we have a job to do!" Jack ordered.
All of the agents, including Blackwatch all climbed aboard the orca dropship, where the pilots were waiting for them to board.
The two pilots were sitting in the cockpit, checking over radar and communications before taking off.
"Comm tower this is MV-261 Orca, all of our instruments are green, requesting permission to take off, over."
~MV-261 Orca this is comms, permission granted. Be sure to radio in before approaching the mainland US, out"
"Alright, were all good, power up those engines." The pilot said.
The co-pilot did as he was told and powered up the engines, casing the dropship to vibrate as the engines heated up.
"You all ready in the back?" the pilot called out to the agents.
Jack gave the thumbs up for everyone, signifying they were ready. The pilot nodded and slowly hovered the dropship above the landing pad. The ground got further and further away as the horizon became clearly visible. Then the ship began to gain speed at the Watchpoint grew further and further away, they were on their way.
Michigan 10:00
Alex was walking alongside the road, and hiding whenever a car would come by, luckily for him it didn't happen often, about 5 each hour. Alex was nearly dying of thirst, he was looking for a gas station alongside the road where he could get a bottle of water, last time he tried to drink he almost coughed up this lungs.
A few minutes back Alex passed a sign that said the nearest service station was only 1km away, so he knew he was close. So Alex picked up the pase, and began to jog quickly, Alex than took it above the ground, and began to run on the tree branched, and jump from tree to tree, a little way to practice his agility. Free running came almost natural to Alex, he was decent at it before the parasite, but he could never gp very long, but thanks to the parasite he could do it for hours.
As Alex was free running, he cracked a smile. The wind blowing in his face, The feeling of being free, not having to worry about fucking anything up, because he could get up and try again. Every day he used to live in fear, if he fucked up, people died, friends died. He was always under constant watch, hardly had time to himself, to see his family, his friends, and he barely had time for a girlfriend. He didn't live through his twenties like most; he didn't go to parties, or go to a fancy school. The military was his life, his family, his friends. He loved it, and he loved the people he worked with, but at times he hated it.
Alex was coming up to the last tree before a giant hill, hit was about 40 feet away, so he sprinted and jumped as high as he could, and flew. He cheered as he flew through the air and landed on the ground, and ran up the hill to see the service station at the bottom.
Alex walked down the hill, but he quickly realized that he still had his monstrous appearance, but he couldn't shape shift into a Delta force commander wither. Alex didn't want to kill any civilians, so he figured he'd make an excuse about some medical problem he had, after all he's seen some pretty weird stuff since he woke up, didn't seem to out of the ordinary.
As Alex was approaching the front door, he noticed the clerk behind the counter. Immediately ne noticed his facial expression, he was scared. Upon walking closer he noticed he had his hands up. Alex walked even closer to see a hooded figure pointing a handgun at the clerk, and another hooded figure walking around the store.
The clerk noticed Alex approaching the store and his facial expression looked even more terrified, he couldn't tell if it was his appearance or the fact he didn't want him to open the door. As Alex reached out to the door handle, the clerk shook his head slightly, but Alex ignored his request. Alex opened the door and a beeping noise followed. The hooded figure at the counter turned around and pointed his handgun at Alex.
"Yo! Hands up to fucking move!" the robber said.
Alex stood on place staring him in the eye, but didn't obey his commands; instead he took a step closer.
"Hey man! Im not bluffing! Don't move or I'll fucking drop you!" the robber yelled.
At this point, the second robber had already run to the front of the store. But Alex immediately noticed it wasn't a man. It was a robot, the same robot he saw in Addsion. The robot drew a Sub-machine gun and pointed it at the clerk, making sure he didn't move.
Alex took another step forward.
"I mean it man, I'll hill you!" the robber yelled.
"No you won't" Alex said, before taking another step.
The robber pulled the trigger. Luckily for Alex he anticipated the gunshot and pivoted to his right and leaned back, dodging the bullet. Before the robber could fire again Alex grabbed the gun and yanked it out of his hand. Before kicking the robber into a wall, The robot turned from the clerk and drew his attention to Alex, pointing the SMG at him. Instinctively, Alex's armor came out. Alex stood straight up as the robot attempted to kill Alex, unloading his entire magazine into Alex, only casing sparks to fly everywhere.
The robots magazine ran dry and it attempted to get another, but before it could Alex punched a hole right through its chest, causing the robot to freeze in position, before falling over. Alex's armor disappeared and revealed his regular appearance. He looked over to the clerk, who looked petrified, and still had his hands up.
"Y…you're the guy from the news, from Addison." The clerk said
Alex didn't know what to say, so he just shrugged his shoulders.
"Please, take whatever you want, don't hurt me!" the clerk pleaded.
Alex chuckled. "If I wanted to hurt you I would of done it already."
Alex walked over to the cooler and grabbed a bottle of water before walking back over to the clerk. The human is still alive, the robot, well he's trash.
"You mean the omnic?" the clerk asked
"Sure, whatever they're called, anyway wait about five minutes before calling the police, and make sure they bring EMS. Have yourself a good one." Alex said, before running out of the store and back into the forest"
20 minutes later
Alex was now in the middle of the forest, staring down at his bottle of water. He needed to drink, he hadn't since he got out, his throat was as dry as the Sahara desert. Alex hesitated for a moment, and prepared himself. He grabbed his mask and put the water close to his mouth. He tore the mask off and immediately felt pain, but he drank the water quick enough before he coughed, and put the mask back on.
Alex signed in relief; at least he knew he had some way of drinking. Alex prepared to drink again, he tore of his mask and drank. Unfortunately for Alex he dropped the mask, so before he could pick it back up his lungs and throat felt like they were on fire, and he coughed up all the water he was drinking. He fell on his back and began to tear up as he coughed violently. He quickly got his mask and put it back on, before getting up.
"Fuck!" he yelled, kicking a small rock. He wasn't as angry this time, he knew the risks, he was just glad he knew how to drink properly, food would still be an issue however.
FOB Omega was Alex's final destination, he was going to kill commander smith and stop with ridiculous manhunt, luckily for Alex he knew exactly where it was, but it would take some time to get there…..
Overwatch Dropship, 12:00
Tracer, Reinhardt, Ana and Jack were all sitting at the recreational table within the dropship, and the Blackwatch agents were still at the back in the loading bay, chatting amongst themselves.
"So, how long do you think we'll be there? A few hours! HA!" Reinhardt joked.
"Reinhardt, don't go in with your guard down, we don't know what this guy is capable of." Ana said.
"BAAA! One man can't take on a crusader! Let alone a team of the finest agents!" Reinhardt cheered.
"Yeah but this man is a SEAL, something tells me he knows more than one thing about taking down a crusader" Jack said.
"I doubt it, if an army of Bastions couldn't do it! I doubt a single soldier can" Reinhardt said.
"He's right Reinhardt, from what we've seen this bloke knows what he's up against, and besides…..this isn't 2045…you've gotten old" Lena said, with a giggle at the end.
Jack wasn't listening; he was too busy going over Alex's files on his tablet,
Excels at: Marksmanship, tactics, interrogation, torture, demolition, Special reconnaissance, Direct action, Hostage Rescue, Counter-terrorism. Stealth, flying, hacking. Martial arts include: Shaolin Kung Fu, Judo, ninjitzu, Katate, Aikido, Krav Maga, as well as Boxing.
First mission: Deployed in Jordan, tasked with the assassination of a HVT that operated a sleeper cell planning attacks on Major NON-Nato Allies. Results exceeded expectations. HVT: KIA
Squad success rate: very high
Favorite Motto: They've surrounded us again, poor bastards.
Jack cracked a smile at the motto, even though he's heard it a thousand times, Alex seems like he's earned the right to say it. A man like this could have been perfect for Overwatch, even without his powers. Hell jack was even able to admit that he was a better soldier than he was. Jack continued to read.
Last deployment: battle of Los Angeles. During the Omnic Crisis, California was a hotspot for the Omnic's, the US military was able to hold off the bastion units by holding air and naval superiority, but artillery hammered the city and lines of defense. Seal team 6 was dropped behind enemy lines and tasked with destroying the artillery batteries.
Mission: successful
Casualties: 0 killed, Alex Jefferson M.I.A
Jack grew a bit suspicious, how could a Navy SEAL just go MIA, especially a commander? Though jack did take into consideration there was a global war occurring at the time, they might have lacked the time to search for him, none the less it aroused a little suspicion.
"Commander, you still with us?" Lena asked
"Hm? Oh yeah" Jack replied, snapping out of his trance.
Before anyone could say anything, they were interrupted by two loud roaring sounds. They all looked towards the large window where the door was, and Lena blinked over to it to get a better look. On the left side she saw a fighter jet approaching from behind the ship, moving to the side.
"Overwatch dropship this is the US air force, call sign Jackrabbit, how copy?"
"Copy, Jack rabbit" the pilot replied.
"We will escort you to the designated landing zone, do now deviate from your current course oir altitude without authorization, do you copy?"
"Copy"
The agents overheard the command they all strapped in, anticipating that they were about to make their descent. After about two minutes, the fighter jets turned to the right, so the dropship followed. Through the window a red smoke signal could be seen coming from the horizon. As the dropship began to slowdown, the jets flew away and were replaced by gunships, matching the speed of the dropship.
As the dropship began to switch to a VTOL state, the FOB was clearly visible. Trucks were leaving and dropship were coming and going, almost as if they were leaving. The dropship approached one of the landing pads at the FOB, and the aircraft marshal was guiding the massive dropship.
The dropship touched down and the ramp opened up. The four agents got up from the recreational table and followed Jack.
"No, wait here" Jack said, before walking to the ramp.
As Jack began to walk down the ramp, Commander Smith and Braxley were waiting at the bottom, along with a few soldiers. Smith had his hands behind his back and looked behind Jack and furrowed his brow.
"They only sent one of you?" Smith asked.
Jack chuckled "No commander, I'm not the only one, but i guarantee you the people in that ship are more than qualified, I handpicked them myself. " Jack said.
"Well, commander. I have no doubt in my mind that you are capable of putting up a fight, my only problem is you won't have any support from us." Commander Smith said
"And why would that be?" Jack asked.
"Well, turns out his next target is myself, and he knows exactly where this FOB is, and i don't want to lose anymore men, especially at the risk of protecting me, i don't want to have to be responsible for more needless deaths. He's probably on his way right now" Smith replied.
"And how long before you guys are cleared out?" Jack asked
"Oh, id say about half an hour tops, you guys should be all alone with him by the time he gets here" Smith replied.
"And we will have no support whatsoever?" Jack asked.
"Well yes and no. When he gets here, again you'll be all alone. But you can radio for support was the air force base not far from here, that's where we're headed" Smith replied
Jack put his hands on his hips and looked around the FOB, mapping it out and getting a feel for it, before looking back at Smith.
"Alright, i have to go brief my agents, and I'm sure your busy around here, so i won't take up anymore of your time" Jack said.
"Good luck, commander." Smith said, before him and Braxley began to walk off.
"You really think they can defeat the subject?" Braxley asked.
"Nope, their fucking dead." Smith replied.
Jack took a look at his surroundings for a few moments longer before walking back into the dropship, where all of the agents, including Blackwatch, were waiting for him.
"Alright guys, here's the plan…"
1 hour later
Alex was closing in on the FOB, he knew exactly where he was and he knew he was close. Though he did find it strange that he didn't pick up any radio chatter on the comms, and he saw no patrol aircraft, Which was unusual because back when he was deployed FOB's would always have ground or aircraft patrols. Maybe they didn't because it was on US soil, strange none the less. But at least he would have the element of surprise.
Alex went from a slow jog to a sprint; his feet were crashing into the leaves on the ground, before being replaced with the sound of his boots on the concrete. Alex looked down, he ws now on top of the main bunker, he looked up, to see himself approaching a concrete wall with barbed wire on top of it, approaching fast. Alex ran as fast as he could until he was close enough, and then jumped. Past the wall, was about a 20 foot drop into the staging area, where he escaped the last time.
Alex landed the 20 foot drop with ease, rolling as his feet hit the ground and getting up into a combat stance, preparing for a barrage of bullets. But to Alex's surprise, there was nothing but silence. Nothing could be heard except for the wind rustling the leaves, and cars in the distance.
"Something aint right" Alex said to himself. Before getting out of his combat stance, and slowly pacing around the staging area.
It seems like they left the place in a hurry, tents were still set up and there were still cars, packed with ammo sitting in the courtyard. Alex walked around, with his eyes squinted, snapping his head to any subtle noise he heard. But the only prominent noise was his boots tapping against the concrete as we walked around.
Alex was no idiot; he knew that THEY knew he was coming, bit to leave all of this equipment behind? It was very unusual. Alex attempted to switch frequencies on his radio, but no luck.
Just as Alex was about to let his guard down, he heard a small scuffle behind a shipping container, it was far from him, but still in the staging area. Alex had been on high alert since he got there; de drew his rifle from his back and dropped to his knees into firing position, ready to shoot anything that same into his sights. After about 30 seconds of waiting, Alex got up and began to walk over to the source of the noise, aiming down his rifle which was tilted slightly, which was the way Alex preferred shoot.
Once Alex got to the shipping container, he turned the corner with his rifle at the ready, but there was nothing there. Alex swore he heard something move, could do been an animal though, after all there was no activity. But right after turning the corner, he heard a series of louder, faster scuffles at the location he just came from.
"This aint no fucking animal" Alex said to himself.
Alex ran over to the spot he heard the scuffles, but again…..nothing.
"What the fuck is going on?"
Right after Alex said that, he heard a loud whizzing sound and a giggle, followed by a stream of blue light.
Alex pointed his rifle in the direction of the blue light but it was too late, whoever was there had already blasted him in the face with a pulse weapon, burning the impacted area.
"ARRGGGHH" Alex yelled.
Instinctively, Alex's armor coated his body, and immediately seizing all of the pain in his face. Alex looked up to see a small woman, no more than 5,4, dressed in a brown jacket, orange tights and goggles, along with very spiky hair, armed with two pulse pistols, and a huge glowing device on her chest. She was starring at Alex in shock and confusion, probably because of his transformation. None the less he was about to kill her.
Alex drew his rifle and began to open fire, but before the first round could even land, the blue stream of light appeared, and she was gone. Right away, Alex felt the impact of pulse rounds on the back of his head.
"What the fuck!" Alex yelled.
Alex turned around to fire once more, but she immediately kicked the rifle out of his hand. She went for another kick but Alex caught it, throwing her as hard as he could towards the shipping container. But she simply disappeared before making impact.
The woman reappeared moments later ahead of him.
"He's here lads! Let's do this!" she cheered.
Alex stared at her with confusion, before hearing a series of VERY loud footsteps approaching from his right flank, he immediately recognized the sound.
The crusader approached from his right, hammer at the ready and cocky as ever.
Alex looked over.
"A god damn crusader, it's been a while since I've seen one of you" Alex said, sarcastically.
"And it'll be the last!" the crusader shouted back.
"Please, we learned every single weakness you had." Alex said back.
"We'll see about that!" the crusader yelled, before the thruster on hid back ignited, sending him charging towards Alex.
"Whoo! Get him Reinhardt!" the British woman yelled.
"I'll kill you faster than any bastion unit ever could" Alex muttered to himself.
"Whoo! Get him Reinhardt!" the British woman yelled.
As the crusader flew toward Alex, Alex simply braced himself, spreading his legs and placing his hand on his opposite shoulder, and bent his knees.
The crusader made contact with Alex, but was shocked to find that he had been stopped dead in his tracks. Before the crusader could do anything, Alex grabbed him the collar and raised his fist, which was now glowing red. Alex intended to punch him and melt right through that armor. But before he could, a barrage of bullets rained down on him.
Alex switched his attention from the crusader. Alex drew his attention to the source of the gunfire, to reveal a tall blonde man running across the storage containers. Alex chuckled and let go of the crusader, before jumping on top of the storage container in front of the person that was shooting at him, stopping him dead in his tracks.
The man raised his rifle but Alex smacked it out of his hands. Alex went to punch him but he was punched first, and the punch actually made him fly a few feet, the man's strength matched those of the super soldiers he fought. The man stepped forward for another punch but was slipped by Alex. Alex then tripped him and stomped him into the cargo container. He attempted to get up but his attempts were futile, Alex kicked him off of the cargo container and onto the pavement.
"Jack!" the British woman yelled, running towards him.
Alex got ready to jump over to the man and finish the job, but before he could, he was met with a sniper bullet to the head. The bullet sparked and it made him jump back. Alex actually felt a lot of pain when the bullet struck, so he figured out whoever shot him was using a .303 or higher.
Alex recovered, but before he could move, the was shot in the exact same spot.
"Fuck!" he yelled, running behind a storage container.
"Tracer! Keep the pressure on! I'll protect Jack!" Alex heard the crusader yelled.
Alex peeked around the corner of the storage container, spotting the shooter on top of a rock, in bright blue clothing, whoever that was they're clearly an amature. Before Alex could get a good look, a bullet struck the container, just centimeters from his face. Alex remained calm and retreated the container. Alex waited for a moment before sticking his hand out, and brining it right back, tricking the shooter into firing a shot. Right away Alex ran out of cover and ran towards the shooter, who was now relocating to cover her injured comrade.
Alex built momentum and jumped as high as he could, landing right in front of the sniper, and kicking the rifle right out of her hand. The woman pulled out a knife and swung, but Alex smacked that weapon out of her hand too. The woman then stood there with her hands up, looking up at the taller figure. She was completely defenseless, but Alex didn't care, you tried to kill him, and he would try to kill you.
Alex Grabbed the woman but the throat and threw her towards her comrades, slamming her into the concrete. Alex than ran for the rifle he kicked out of her hand and picked it up, chambering a round and taking aim at the sniper who was wounded next to her comrade. But before he could fire, the familier blue barrier came up, and denied him the kill.
"Figures" Alex said, dropping the rifle.
Alex ran towards the crusader, who in return swung his hammer. But it was far too slow to hit Alex. Alex ducked under it before placing a firm uppercut to the body of the crusader. The crusader yelled in pain and was moved back a bit, but was still ready to fight. He swung his hammer a few more times, much faster this time, but Alex slipped all of the attempts. The crusader brought the hammer over his head and slammed down as hard as he could, crack the pavement for a few feet, but again he missed.
Alex took the opportunity to run at the crusader Jumping off of the handle of the hammer and kicking the crusader in the face, causing him to fall to the ground.
"The bigger they are the hardy they fall" Alex taunted.
Alex turned his attention over to the other two incapacitated attackers. The British woman was kneeing next to them, to see if they were okay. Alex stared at her for a few moments before she looked up to notice him, and notice that the crusader had been defeated.
She stared at Alex with one of the angriest expressions he had ever seen; she got up and immediately began blinking around Alex, shooting at him from every angle. But fortunately for Alex, she was angry, she wasn't thinking, which meant that it would be easier for Alex to stop her.
She would usually sit in front of Alex until he lunged at her, in which she would either blink left or right. Alex wanted to find her strategy, so he lunged, and she blinked.
"10 o clock" Alex said.
Alex waited for her to appear in front of him again. When she did, he lunged, and she blinked once more.
"10 o clock" Alex mumbled again.
Alex noticed that she was extremely frustrated that her pistols weren't even putting a dent in Alex. So frustrated in fact, that she forgot to switch up the directions she would blink in.
Alex chuckled as she blinked around him a few times, shouting in frustration as nothing she did worked. Eventually she blinked in front of Alex again, a big mistake. Alex flinched, and it tricked her into blinking to his 10 o clock. But Alex anticipated it and she was met with a hand pulling the collar of her Jacket.
Alex pulled her in and lifted her by the neck. At this point she couldn't blink away, so she tried to struggle and kick Alex, but to no avail, but during the commotion she managed to place a small piece of machinery on his mask, which went unnoticed by Alex. The taller man had a grasp she couldn't break free of. Alex drew his attention to the glowing metal chest piece, assuming that was what gave her ability to teleport.
Without warning, Alex's armor now had electricity flowing around it, the British girl's eyes widened as she attempted to struggle even more, but resistance was futile. Alex Then brought up his fist and punched the contraption, causing the girl to close her eyes and yelped, both in pain and in fear.
The crusader heard her yelp and managed to get back on his feet with the little strength he had. Alex noticed this and turned her around, and pushed her back against his body, putting the brit in a chock hold, digging one of the pieces of his armor into her neck, causing her to yelp once more.
As a matter of fact, all three of the agents got up when they heard her yelp, but they were all too weak to fight. The man in the blue combat fatigues drew out his pistol and pointed it at Alex. Alex noticed this and tightened his grip on the girl.
"Don't move any closer, or she's dead" Alex threatened.
The man took another step forward, in response, Alex dug the piece of armor into her neck, drawing blood and causing her to close her eyes tightly and yelp, attempting to push her off.
"Jack stop! He's going to kill her!" the female sniper yelled.
Jack looked towards Ana, and back at Alex, who was still digging the piece of armor into Lena, who was viably terrified, and in pain. This immediately destroyed Jack so he dropped his pistol and raised his hands up, and took a few steps backwards, as did the other three.
Alex gave a small nod and threw her on the ground. Lena began to grab her throat and cough, her eyes were tearing up, and she was shaking with fear. Alex looked down at her, and back up at the other three, who still had their hands up. Alex never killed unarmed or surrendering enemies, but something was telling him spare their lives. Which hasn't happen since his deployment to North Korea, where he spared the life a young KPA soldier, who was brainwashed into believing everything their leader told them.
None the less Alex turned his back to the agents and began walking away, before stopping and looking back at them. They were all still standing there, not even attempting to run for their weapons. Alex turned away once more and ran off into the forests, out of sight.
Once Alex was out of sight, the three ran over to Lena and Reinhardt began to carry her in his arms, bridal style.
"Guys, mission failed, Tracer's hurt bad, we need to get her home, NOW!" Jack yelled into his radio.
That man was easily the toughest opponent they ever fought, and he could of killed them all with ease, but he didn't, and that left Jack wondering. But for now all he had to worry about was Getting Lena home, this man was Blackwatch's problem now…..
