It has been a few days since that fateful night Mercy and Genji had together and the two have spent more and more time together. It was rare to even see the two apart, some of the men around them began to really question if there was something more going on. Junkrat would often joke with the two when they would laugh and carry on to get a room, something that Roadhog would slap him in the back of the head for. Medic wasn't too fond of the two spending so much time together that he would sometimes find an excuse to separate the two. But no matter what, like a defiant teenager, she would always sneak away to go back to Genji. Medic was not too happy afterwards. All the time she was growing up, she never misbehaved like this. One day, he said to her, "Angela, you're twenty seven. Stop acting like your fifteen." As he would scold her, Genji would sneak behind Medic and make faces to mock him and make Mercy laugh. Medic knew what was going on so he turned to face Genji with a large syringe in his hand in a threatening manner.

The moment everyone love the most was when one day after training, Genji gathered most of the team together to show them some tricks he could do with his wakizashi. He wowed everyone around him as he spun it around and would swing it around his body, the blade not even touching his skin. He sheathed his blade and everyone cheered. Mercy, in her Valkyrie suit, spread her wings and levitated as she gave an applause. She looked so cute that Genji's heart melted at the sight of her. His blush grew so dark that it was noticeable to everyone.

Then night would come and the two would have intimate conversations like they did just a few days. They would console each other of any grievances they had. The two were connected, soul mates.

One day, Mercy woke up before Genji and Medic was waiting outside her door.

"Angela, would you mind traveling into town with me to help me grab supplies?" he asked her. She told him she would but she wanted to see Genji first. Medic told her, "We have to leave soon. The sooner we get there, the sooner we can leave."

Though she still wanted to see Genji, she thought it was best to just go with him. She put on her sleeveless orange turtleneck and navy blue skirt with her black stockings with her white loafers and was following Medic to the truck.

Not too long after the two left, Genji woke up, but on his what he called "Sparrow" outfit and walked into the break room where Sniper, Engineer and Junkrat sat drinking coffee, Junkrat and Engineer bidding him a good morning. Sniper, on the other hand, was acting very strange. As Genji walked in, he slapped the paper he was reading on the table and kicked his feet on top of it and put on a nervous smile as he greeted, "G'day, Genji! Ya missed Mercy, she just left with Medic!"

"Oh, that's a shame, I wanted to wish her a good morning." He said softly. However, Sniper's nervousness and the fact that he was hiding his paper under his feet didn't go past Genji. He asked, "Any good news today, Sniper?"

"Oh, you know, sunny weather, omnics, that Korean gamer won another tournament, same old, same old!" Sniper replied, still smiling nervously. Genji walked passed him to go to the coffee machine, but he swiftly turned and pulled the paper from under Sniper's feet. Genji chuckled in victory and Sniper replied and he swung his foot at him, "Bloody piker!"

After he straighten the paper and began to read it, Genji's smirk quickly faded as he read the article. It read, "The Japanese city of Hanamura was shaken today when officials discovered the bodies of the many members of the Shimada clan slaughtered in the night. Police suspect that Hanzo Shimada, the eldest son of the head of the clan, is responsible. He has yet to be found, but his fingerprints were found on blood writing on the main hall of Shimada Castle. The word written was reported to be actually a name. The name written was 'Genji', the youngest son of the Shimada head, who was reported missing over two months ago. Hanamura police say there is a massive manhunt for Hanzo, but he has yet to be caught."

Genji couldn't believe what he was reading. Hanzo killed his entire clan…the clan that wanted him dead. He didn't know what to say, or even feel at this point. Sniper stood up from his chair, placed his hand on his shoulder and told him, "I'm sorry, mate."

It was quite the distance from the mine to town, but thankfully the truck was converted to run on whiskey, thanks to Engineer's modifications and Demoman's unlimited supplies of whiskey. On the way, Medic and Mercy were pretty quiet, but there was tension in the air and she felt it. She wanted to ask her father what was wrong, but she knew he would come out with it sooner or later. It was the waiting that all but killed her because when her father gave off this aura, it normally wasn't anything good. When it finally came, she wasn't prepared for it.

"What's going on between you and Genji?" he finally asked. Mercy looked up at him, wide eyed. He looked back at her, a stern look on his face. She didn't like that look, especially since he never gave it to her before. She knew he was serious, but she had to give him an answer.

"Papa, why on earth are you asking me this?" she shyly asked him.

"You two are spending way too much time together." He told her. "I know that you two go out every night. Where do you go?"

"We just talk. He's my friend, papa."

"Your 'friend'? Angela, aside from me, you've never spent this much time with anyone."

"Is that what this is all about? You're upset that I'm spending time with Genji more than you?"

"That you're spending time with a man at all!"

"Papa, I'm a grown woman! I can be with whoever I want to be!"

"So there is something going on! I knew it!"

"Nothing's going on! Verdammt papa, you're acting like a child!"

"Don't you talk to me like that, young lady!"

"Papa! Please…" Mercy's voice cracked, she began to sob. Medic knew he had gone too far. Never once did he ever talk to her like that. She never gave him a reason to. But he had to admit that she was right that she was a grown woman. He cursed himself and stopped the truck on the side of the road and turned it off.

The two sat in silence as Mercy tried to calm herself down and wiped her eyes. He reached over and brushed her cheek before she could wipe all her tears. He said to her, "I'm sorry, Angela. I never should have raised my voice to you. You're right, you're a grown woman, not a child."

He brought his hand back over and sighed as he looked back at the road, placing his hands on the steering wheel.

"It's just that…well, growing up you never had any interest in boys. I never had these emotions before, the fact that you never dated, never went out with friends. I accepted the fact that you might not ever date, get married, have a family. Now, you spend so much time with him and I felt like…second best."

"Papa, you're never second best." She said, her voice still shaken. "You saved me. You raised me and took care of me. I miss my parents, but you are my father. That's what you are to me, no matter what and I love you."

Medic smiled as he looked back at her. She smiled back and said with a chuckle, "There's nothing going on between me and Genji."

Medic chuckled and said, "Ja, sure there isn't."

Mercy gasped then glared at him as he turned the truck back on and took off.
