Title: Against the rules

Chapter 19: Lena's break

AN: this chapter is shorter. I apologise.

I have also made a change to Commander Kowal's appearance. she now has dark gray hair that is like a mullet but is longer on the top and back so its in a tight braid all of the time.

as always, reviews are very much appreciated. they encourage me and give me a good giggle sometimes.

Tracer's POV

I pick up the phone. It was surprisingly in good condition considering it was on the floor.

I unlock the screen and flick through the phone. There's nothing on there to lead me to her or let me get in contact.

I can't stay here. I have to move.

I dash off back to my apartment, calling the only person I thought was able to understand.

Mercy's POV

"Fareeha! Stop…" I whine as I try to get up while her strong arms hold me to the mattress.

"No. You don't have to get up yet." she grumbles as she shifts so she's on top of me. I push at her head to try to get some leverage. But that won't help when she's a fighter and I'm a healer.

My phone starts to ring and she huffs as she let's me go. I walk into the bathroom as I hear her answer my phone.

"Angela! It's Lena. We need to get to her." I see Fareeha run into the bathroom holding the phone. I take it off her and press it to my ear to hear her soft cries.

"We'll be over as fast as we can, Spatz."

Tracer's POV

I curl up on my couch. I want her back. I want her to be okay. Why couldn't she just be free? Fuck Talon and all they stand for the sick bastards.

Sombra was stood in the kitchen talking quietly with Hana. I couldn't hear then with the way I was laid and how quietly they was talking but I knew it was about me.

I hear some footsteps on the balcony that make my heart skip beats as Sombra walks into the area I'm in to check who's here.

It must be Mercy, I called her just before the Hispanic and Korean turned up. I saw Sombra's hand grab onto the hilt of her gun, ready to withdraw it in a moments notice.

"Sombra, it's fine. It's just Mercy." I say weakly, lifting my head to see the entrance of said friend and her new girlfriend.

It all happened so quickly. Mercy pulled out her gun and aimed it at Sombra, Fareeha going alert and ready to take her on in hand in hand combat.

"Lena, are you alright?" Angela asks, her eyes never leaving the darker skinned woman.

"Chill out Médico. Widowmaker asked me to protect Lena until further notice." Sombra pulls her hand away from her gun and holds up both of her gloved hands in a sign for peace.

Mercy looks at me and I nod in confirmation. She still looks unsure but lowers her gun. Coming over to me, she sits at the edge of the couch.

Her hand smooths down my hair as she let's me lay back down. Her fingers calming me.

"What happened Spatz?" she whispered to me, her fingers brushing tears that I long forgot about.

"They t-took her away from me… if she doesn't message me then they've changed her… What… how am I..?" I break down sobbing again, giving up on my words.

"Hey. Hey. It'll be okay. I promise... I'll look into her technology and what they use on her. If they do change her I may have a chance of bringing her back." At her words my throat tightens with happiness and a weight has been taken off my chest.

Angela lowers herself down to press a gentle kiss to my head before looking up to Fareeha.

"Can you come with me to get her files?" she asks the taller warrior, earning a solid nod in her agreement.

Before she could get up I grip her wrist, making sure I get her attention. She needs to know this.

"She's really trying to be good Angela. She's changed." I whisper loud enough for the room to hear. My voice catching from emotion.

"I know. She chose you to love." I stay still shocked as she gets up and walks out of the balcony with Fareeha hot on her heels.

Why does everyone else know that we're in love before we do? I'm not saying we're in love because there's a possibility that we don't. I'm not saying that our feelings aren't there but-

Jesus this is complicated. I don't have the energy for this.

I sit up and clutch Amélie's phone, not having put it down since I found it.

"I'm going to bed." I say to the remaining couple that are now in a soft embrace.

They can take the couch. I stand up and slowly move to the door leading to my bedroom. Holding the phone as close to me as possible like it would bring her back to me.

"Have a nice nap Rastro." I hear Sombra say in the silence and smile softly. I could get used to her being around.

I give her a nod and step into the room, shutting the door firmly behind me in the process.

I move to my bed and sit down. Today was a long and nightmarish day. I'd rather it would just get better this moment but Amélie even said that would be a slim chance.

I sigh as I remove my jacket and shoes, lying on top of my cover, ready to get up in a moments notice.

I inhale into the sheets and smell her. God I would do anything for her to be here and safe.

I hope she's okay.

Sombra's POV

I sit down on the couch heavily. Today has been tough. Especially on that energetic Brit.

Somehow because of all of this, it's made her dull and sad and it's making me sad and I'm not even that close to her.

I look up at my pacing Hana. It must my hard on her, seeing her best friend like this.

"Chika… Can you help me out of my jacket?" I ask softly, hopefully it will distract her from everything that has happened today.

She pauses mid step to look at me for a moment, like she was trying to figure out what I said. Her eyes soon click back to reality as she nods slightly, moving to me.

She takes a seat next to me as I undo my jacket, revealing the cables on my back that connect to a unit down my spine.

At first, I hated letting people see my back, it was a part of me that I was ashamed about. But since I started doing what felt right my self esteem has only grown.

She gently traced her hand down the unit, making me shiver in delight, I swear she does this to just tease me.

Her fingers latch onto a cable as she eases it out. I gasp softly at the removal of something that was literally a part of me.

Her lips touch my jaw softly as she rubs the area where she just pulled the cable out of. Her forehead resting on my head as she does so.

"Gracias pequeño." I sigh in delight as I rest my elbows on my knees to give her better access to my back.

I moan out as she jams her finger into a socket, her spare hand pulling my head to look at her as she gives me a pointed glare.

"I know what that means kokoa." she almost growls at me. Her fingers twitching in my socket in a threat.

I bite my lip hard. Would she really do this on her friend's couch? I should test the line.

"I think it's hot that you're small." I husk to her. Moving closer to capture her lips with my own.

As our lips touch she starts to rub the socket of my unit, causing me to moan into her mouth as I press closer to her. How far will she actually go?

I reach behind her and slowly pull open her suit, sliding it down her shoulders to show that she isn't wearing any sort of bra, she claims that her suit is specially made so she doesn't need bras and bras make seams in her suit that she doesn't want.

I pull her suit down to show her tight perky breasts and I lick my lips.

Tonight was going to be a brilliant night.
