Benjamin's POV:

The sound of rapid footsteps from the hangar woke me up as I slept. I looked around and got up, carefully moving to avoid waking Echo. I then quickly moved for my room and grabbed my Grim Reaper Sword before heading outside the room. It was still late at night, around 2:00 PM at most. I then made my way up the watchtower and onto the top floor of the hangar room. The footsteps were still clean in the air, but I couldn't see a thing. I turned on my natural infrared and saw a reddish figure moving along the bridges. I quietly but quickly leaped across the areas to follow the intruder, studying them as I did so. The intruder's figure was large and bulky, with a top half that would identify as a man. An Omnic would keep its temperature low if it were an assassin, so it was a human. He carried a weapon that my infrared vision had difficulty detecting. I jumped from one end of the hangar to the next as the two of us made our way to the exit that led to Winston's laboratory. He then made his way down to the bottom floor and next to the side exit. I then made my move.

The intruder noticed me and blocked my strike with a bow, which he used to grapple my attack and throw me off. I tumbled past the exit and into a stack of boxes. I groaned as I looked up and barely dodged a flying arrow. The intruder then ran out and aimed his bow and arrow at me. 

"Where is Genji?" He demanded. 

"Why do you want to know where he is?" I asked, edging my sword into a defensive stance.

"That is none of your business. Tell me where Genji is, or your life ends here!" He shouted.

"一度もない!(Ichido mo nai!)." I shouted, dashing at the attacker.

He shot his arrow at a blinding speed, but I managed to deflect the attack and jump-slash him. He knocked the blade to the side before grabbing my left shoulder and elbowing me in the stomach. I coughed blood in my mouth as he threw me to a steel beam, my back hitting against it at full force. I groaned as he drew another arrow.

"I will not ask again. Where is Genji?!" the intruder shouted.

"For someone with a big offer, you don't know how to bargain," I groaned.

"Insulant cur!" 

He shot the arrow at me, but I moved to the side as it bounced off the beam. I quickly dashed up and slashed at the man's bow several times before leaping up and kicking him to a nearby wall. I rushed at him, but he leg-swept me, causing me to trip. I placed my hands on the ground and regained my balance, countering the attack with a couching chest kick, knocking him down. I then leaped up and caught my blade in the middle of his bow, and we struggled against one another.

"Tell me who you are and why you want Genji!" I said, pushing my blade closer to his neck.

"My business with my brother has nothing to do with you!" He yelled, grabbing an arrow from his quill and stabbing my leg. 

I howled in pain as my night vision deactivated. The intruder pushed his bow against my chin and threw me back. He then slid to the side and grabbed another arrow as his left arm glowed in a bright blue. 

"Ryuuga wagateki who kuru!" he yelled, summing two giant fucking blue dragons as they swirled in my way. 

Suddenly Genji landed in front of me, withdrawing his blade and summoning his green Dragon, and drawing the other two into the air, where they flew off into the sky and disappeared after a few moments. Our intruder looked in shock as I slowly got up. Without looking back at me, Genji asked,
