Time skip to a couple days later...

I haven't heard from Kiriko in a couple days which is... A little concerning, its mostly been Genji and I putting our plan together to take advantage of the info we have on Talon's activities. Whatever they have planned with the Hashimoto can't be good, so hopefully this should help ease Kiriko's cause in helping Kanezaka finally heal from this twisted and sickening hold they hold on it.

I pull my phone out of my pocket after feeling it vibrate a couple times. Reading the notifications, One of them being message from Brigitte.

Brigitte: "Hope you aren't getting yourself into any trouble"

Y/N: "Does that really sound like me?"

Brigitte: "Look... Just don't do anything stupid, you don't have a lifeline like before"

Y/N: "Right... Speaking of which, have you been able to fix it?"

Brigitte: "No luck... This thing seems to be busted down to every nut and bolt"

Y/N: "Shit..."

Brigitte: "I'm sorry Y/N, I've been trying my best"

Y/N: "Don't worry bout it, you should be getting some rest anyways"

Brigitte: "You're right. Promise you'll call me at some point?"

Y/N: "I'll try my best, you know how it is on missions. Especially with Genji"

Brigitte: "Oh I do... Okay, I'll go now"

Y/N: "Miss you a lot"

Brigitte: "Right back at you <3"

With that I put my phone away and leaned against the wall, starting to sigh.

Genji: "Am I interrupting something?"

I look over at the window again, and once again he was just seated in it

Y/N: "You know you can just try knocking again?"

Genji: "Why bother? You never answer anyways"

Y/N: "Touché"

Genji: "Do we need to run by the plan one more time before leaving today?"

Y/N: "I think we should be alright... But you sure we don't need anyone else for help"

Genji: "Second guessing your skills now huh?"

Y/N: "Pfft... No..."

Genji: "Just keep up then"

Genji jumped back out the window and sat on the fire exit while waiting for me to get ready. I on the other hand got suited up in the lighter version of my regular armor that Brigitte had spent time in the workshop making for this trip, covering mostly my vital areas and allowing more flexibility. Attaching my hoverboard to me back I too vaulted out the window and onto the fire exit, from here it was only just making our way to the docks.

Y/N: "Rooftops or the streets?"

Genji: "Rooftops would be safer, Overwatch activity is still declared illegal, remember?"

Y/N: "Well yeah... Duh..."

Genji: "I think I'm starting to see what Brigitte sees in you"

Y/N: "What's that supposed to mean?"

Instead of an answer to my question, all he did was jump away to scale his way to the rooftop.
