Alright, after signing up to the Mchanzo Big Bang, I ended up realising that there was so much I wanted to write about in the Overwatch Fandom.
So now I'm taking prompts for Dad! Gabriel & McCree, Reaper76, Genyatta, Mchanzo and other relationships ?
If you want to know what I ship or my opinion on certain relationships, then just ask ?
Please read, enjoy and review ?
Prompt from Schattenfell: Talon/other terrorist organization/ (somebody else) make an assassination attempt on Jack Morrison, the Strike Commander of Overwatch
…
"I'm going with you." Gabriel crossed his arms and pinned Jack with a stern look that left no room for argument.
"Gabe…" Jack stepped towards him, placing a hand on the other man's arm to try and get him to ease his stance, "… I'm a soldier, I've been doing jobs like this for years. I can take care of myself, I promise."
And Gabe knew this, but it didn't mean that he was comfortable with letting his partner put himself in harms way. It seemed like Jack read his thoughts, because the next thing he said was:
"I know it's likely to be a trap, especially after the information we've received, but I can handle it… let me do my job."
"… Fine. Don't let your guard down Jack."
Rolling his eyes, Jack gave Gabe a fond smile. "Not that your protectiveness isn't funny and charming, but I really need to go now."
"If you die, I'm gonna kill you."
"That's less charming."
The second Jack left, Gabe glanced at the clock, making a mental note of the time, before turning back to his paperwork.
…
"I can't believe he was right!" Jack grunted, firing at the men surrounding him, throwing down a healing capsule as he fought for his life, "Who plots a trap like this for one person?!"
He needed to get out of here.
The trap had been sprung as soon as he arrived, and any help Jack may have brought with him were gunned down almost immediately.
Which left him there… alone… with no working radio and the transport too far away.
It was an elaborate assassination attempt… but it wasn't going to work…. Hopefully.
Panting, he looked around at the mess of blood and death, a growl still sounding out of his lips as the remaining assassins all started to spread out and surround him.
"Alright…" he grunted, "… if you want to play, let's play."
…..
The second Jack re-entered the base, Gabe knew something was very wrong. It was way too early for the Strike Commander to be back, and the man looked absolutely drained on top of that. Drained in a way that Gabe hadn't seen for years, not since Jack was promoted all those months ago.
"What happened?!" he demanded, already knowing the answer, but still wishing for it not to be true.
"I'm fine, super healing, remember?" Jack answered, smiling tiredly at him and moving towards the nearest chair.
Gabe frowned, quickly taking Jack's arm to stop him. "Jack, tell me what happened." He ordered gently. "You're hurt, aren't you?"
Jack sighed wearily, turning to him and wincing as Gabe gently examined the wounds.
Rage built in Gabe's gut as he thought about the type of attack that would even hurt Jack this much… he must have been surrounded, because he knew that Jack had no issues taking care of himself in a fight, even after spending quite a few months behind a desk.
"The bastards took me by surprise." Jack said in explanation to Gabe's unvoiced question, "We got there, and it was dark and empty. I sensed something was wrong, even more so for a trap, but before I could call a tactical retreat, they opened fired and took out my entire crew."
Gabe felt his heart twist slightly in his chest at the thought of how close the other man had been to being killed just a few hours ago, and how Gabe hadn't been there to help him. He felt Jack squeeze his hand as the man smirked at him.
"I should feel flattered really…" Jack chuckled, "… almost an entire squadron of Talon to take out me!"
"How did you... Are they…" Gabe started, not quite knowing how to formulate the question, but still wanting to know that the assholes who'd done this to Jack were gone from this world.
Jack nodded, a frown on his face, "Yeah, they're gone… I guess they forgot I was a Super Solider and carried healing packs. I couldn't risk them falling me back to the base."
"…. You made the right choice Jack." Gabe muttered, ignoring how his blood boiled at the thought of Jack being surrounded like that. "Talon will pay for this."
"They will… you know they will."
