(Updated) (Reyna hates killjoy because of what happened to her hometown and her sister, but even though Kingdom used her weapons, Reyna believes that its still Killjoys fault. Angst but Killjoy gets a little comfort at the end. also im so sorry for all those who actually like Reyna being nice to KJ, bc me too, they would be such good friends if Reyna can look past her anger.)

It had started almost the moment Reyna had joined the protocol. Reyna's eyes darkened with anger anytime Killjoy was nearby, or one of her bots came anywhere close to Reyna. It had started with sharp glares, and rough shoves, shoulder checks, and bruising grips. On missions with Reyna, Killjoy tried to stay as far from the mexican as she could, though whenever she finished off a omega agent, or god forbid one of her bots stole the kill, she could feels Reyna's sharp glare promising pain. 

It had escalated from there to actual physical bruises, and broken bones. She had passed them off to being clumsy in the lab or training anytime she went to Sage or even Skye for any broken bones or bruising to big to hide, or hurt to much. She had to wave away any concern from her friends who saw the supiscally placed bruises on her arms or neck, saying that it was always something from her workshop, but she knew that everyone in the protocol knew of Reyna's hate of Killjoy's bots, they didn't know the hate to the engineer herself. It had all came to a terrifying end when Killjoy's turret managed to hit the mexican.

They had a mission in Icebox, The cold biting Killjoys face and hands as she shot down B Mid to keep the Omega agents from planting. Her turrent was placed down B and she could hear it chirp every time it spotted a enemy. After downing both Omega Reyna and Raze, her heart always clenches when she had to shoot at her girlfriends counterpart, she had placed down a alarm bot to her position before crossing the bridge to her turret. She started helping her team shoot down B Mid again to keep them from sneaking up on them, She could hear Jett, Viper, Phoenix and Reyna down below her calling out every time they saw a enemy agent, making sure the rest of the team knew. Seeing Jett go down towards where she was aiming Killjoy turned to her turret to check on it when she saw it chirp again. Killjoy watched a call of warning on her lips as she watched her turret shoot, and watched as reyna shot down the agent. At that moment Reyna stepped into the path and Killjoy watched the last bullet land perfectly square in Reyna's shoulder.

She winced and quickly zipped down the rope and carefully made her way to Reyna, feeling the chilling death glare the mexican had on her. "Mein gott are you okay? You mov- umph!" when she was close enough reynas eyes flashed dangerously and she grabbed the engineer's arm dragging her behind some containers with a bruising grip. Killjoy groaned softly as her back met the containers wall roughly, and swiftly met the eyes of the mexican. "Re-Reyna.. I swear I didn-" Her stuttered apology was halted as Reyna snarled and grabbed the engineer by the throat, lifting her off the ground as Killjoy furiously tried to pry Reyna's hands off her throat. "Did you do that on purpose little rat." Reyna spat furiously, a smirk growing on her face as Killjoy scrambling got more frantic. The engineer couldn't say anything more than a soft whimper of pain, feeling her head grow heavy with how long she was left unbreathing.

Reyna only seemed to snarl at her pathetic attempts at freeing herself, and instead threw the engineer roughly to the ground, earning a bitten back yell of pain as Killjoy landed on her shoulder and hit her head against the snow covered ground. While the engineer was disoriented Reyna kicked her side hard, throwing her back and against the container Hitting her head, back and shoulder. Reyna reveled in the yell of pain the genius had let out as she hit the ground, and even more so when she saw the tears gathered in said engineers eyes. Reyna grabbed her arm roughly again to pull her up and pin her against the container. "You are lucky that we are on a mission and your worthless brain is useful. Your only on the protocol because your Brimstone's Kid. Your bots are USELESS." Reyna slammed her  into the coniater one last time, relishing in the scream of pain it elicited from Killjoy, before dropping the engineer to the ground. 

When Killjoy didn't make any more sounds, or movements, Reyna scoffed. The comms crackled alive with sounds of confusion from Jett and Viper, who heard the commotion. "Omega got to Killjoy and had roughed her up abit before I got to her, she is fine though." Reyna said simply, grabbing the limp form of the engineer and threw her over her shoulder and reemerging from behind the container and heading towards the rest of her team. "Alright, Omega has retreated, lets get out of here " Vipers voice rang over the site as Reyna met Jett and Phoenix By B mid. Reyna saw Jett look worriedly to the engineer on her shoulder and just scoffed, depositing Killjoy next to her friends before walking a few steps away to wait for Viper to finish requesting a dropship back. Reyna saw that Jett had messed with Killjoys bracelet to store back her turret and Alarm Bot, as Phoenix looked over the engineer. 

Jett was confused. She knew from experience that Omega didn't fight hand on hand, they would rather shoot, and yet Killjoy had no bullet wounds. Instead a  dark bruise in the suspicious shape of a hand was on the engineers throat, and a decent bump was slowly forming on the back of the engineers head. Running her hand against the engineers back to comfort her, only earned her a subconscious whimper of pain. Looking up at Phoenix to see him furrowing his eyebrows, she lifted the engineers jacket and shirt, and confirm her suspicion as she saw the bruising along the geunis's back.  "Holy... Omega did this..?" Jett shook her head. "They couldn't have.. and even if they did why wouldn't they just kill her.." Phoenix went quiet, and Jett sighed reminding herself that her friend would be fine once they got her to Sage. Soon they heard the engines of a dropship, and Viper had joined the group yet again. The only thing showing Vipers worried was the slight furrowing of her eyebrows as she noted the bruises on Killjoy's throat. 

As soon as the dropship landed, the ramp opened and Sage stood on the ramp. Sage was quick to take the engineer gently from Jett's hands and she turned to put the engineer gently on a few seats to heal her up. Phoenix and Jett had gathered around the healer, ready to stay with their friend as Reyna and Viper climbed aboard. Ryena scoffed quietly at the sight of the duelist near the sential before taking a seat of her own, Though Viper was quick to stand in front of the mexican. "What did you do." Viper stated simply, her gaze boring into the mexican, who morphed her face to one of nonchalant. "whatever do you mean Viper?" Vipers face soured further, her mask no longer covering how her nose scrunched in distaste and her mouth curling into a snarl. "To killjoy. Omega had retreated as soon as you killed their Sova, and then you both just disappear, and reappear only for Killjoy to end up like that? We both know how much you dislike her Machines, but to get PHYSICAL over it is petty." The duelist look over at the commotion, sharing glances with each other as they saw Reyna's face morphed into one of anger as she stood up to face Viper head on. The movement spurring the other two duelist forward ready to step in if it turned into a brawl. "Don't try protecting the little rat. You know as well as I do what her and her MACHINES did to me. And besides HER machine shot me. So like I said. It was a OMEGA agent." The duelist glared down the initiator, both daring the other to move as Sage moved forward and Reyna felt Sage's healing stitch up her shoulder wound. 

When they had landed Sage had brought Killjoy to the medbay, letting her sleep off the pain, and wake up on her own. Jett and Phoenix, and quickly Neon and Raze had joined the two duelist in watching over Killjoy and ready to wait until the engineer was up. Reyna and Viper shared no more words, each seperating to their own rooms, though both were seething with anger. As the duelist waited for their friend to wake up, they knew there was something worse going on between Reyna and Killjoy, though without proof they couldn't do anything else but helping the engineer and staying with her.
