-----------------------------------
It all happened so fast.

A blink.
A shout of pain.
A shout of a name - It was Genji that shouted it.

Darkness overcomes.

"Everyone out of the way! I have wounded!" 76 shouted as he carried you in his arms. You were bleeding - badly. To the point where even Seventy-Six himself was drenched waist down with blood. He didn't know if you were even alive at that point, for your eyes shut the second you were inflicted. Talon agents, grenade was too close to you. God even you were drenched with blood. So drenched that if one looked at you, they wouldn't even know where the wound was.
But here's the thing.

You had holes everywhere.
Thank everything holy for the techniques of Angela, who, with time, restored you. But, at a cost. One that changed your life the second you got off that medical bed.

First steps were the worst.

    "Just a few more steps Briar, yes, just like that. One foot in front of the other." Mercy (Angela) said as you stumbled toward her. You were silent, only because she/you hadn't opened up your voice box yet. Your body had to be fully restored first. Your vision itself was coded in blue, like a screen of a tv. You were worried, but you couldn't even show it yourself.
Wait...
Who were thinking about as you fell right onto the floor...? No no no. You weren't losing your memory.
    He was the cyborg. What was his name?

    The next day was horrible.

    "Briar, please, try to speak. Anything." Mercy said with sad eyes. You looked at her.
    "I'm scared. Where is....Genji?"
    "He confined himself in his...room."
    "Let me see him."
    "Briar, you're not..." You got up and tried to stumble to the door, only to fall yet again. Mercy tried to help you by giving you an arm for support. But you weren't even in the mood to deal with her that day.
"Don't TOUCH ME."

You couldn't even eat...
What the hell was wrong with you?!
You were cybernetic...
A scream came from your mouth when you saw yourself in the mirror.

Three Months Later
-
    "Briar, I believe you are ready to see everyone." Mercy said with a smile. You had your mask off, revealing what you thought were disgusting features, even when Mercy said different. You looked at her and scrunched your eyebrows.
"You're lying." You said as you got off the bed. Three months you were stuck in that damn room. Three months. And now you were going to believe her? After each night of crying, begging to see everyone. But the excuses came straight from the woman's mouth. 'You're not ready', 'Your systems can't handle it.'

"Briar...I know you're angry...but-"
"Angry doesn't even describe my pain!" You said with an ear piercing yell. A knock came from the door, and a few second later, it was opened to reveal your Commander. Still not looking a day over 50. He stood there with his arms folded. Obviously Mercy pressed the panic button. Stupid fucking Doctor. .....Language.

"Take me to them then." You said with a saddened tone, walking up to 76. He frowned under the mask and took you down the hallway. With every step, you grew nervous and anxious, making your systems crazy.
"Everyone will be in shock. Stay calm." He said gruffly as he lead you there.
"I'll try..." You said quietly, your head hanging low. "....Will Genji be there?"
"Should be....why?" He asked.
"No reason whatsoever." You remarked with a frown under your own mask.
                        -
    Before Seventy-Six opened the door, he checked in with you. For safety precautions.
    "Are you sure you're ready?" You sighed at his question.
    "Looks like we'll have to find out."
You were so very nervous to see the others, thoughts already streaming into your mind. None were helpful in your current state, so it only worsened as you walked. Well, *clink* down the hallway. Cyborg tech, gotta love it....
