It's even awhile since I've seen the overwatch HQ when I left with reaper, I left the few friends at the HQ who cared enough to even notice me, reaper his treated me well, he respects me as much as I respect him. I was able to reconnect with widowmaker, who apologized for leaving me. And she was happy to see me back to work. And she was very suprised to have me forgive her, but I'm not one to hold a grudge, I understand why she had to leave so she wouldn't get shot and killed. She's not apart of overwatch, she's apart of talon, like me now.
     Luckily in my free time, I was able to build a prototype drone from the skill I leaned from being a mechanic. I leaned how to fix things, replace parts. Of course I don't have time for that anymore. Sombra was also quite nice to me, we understood each other because we were not forced to train for almost every hour of the day. We could talk to each other, which is what almost everyone did. Except reaper, he distanced himself from everyone else, only talking to us when we had a mission or anything like that...

10 Hours prior.

They were hunting for us, all of them. They knew I was trying to save reaper, and everything would have been fine until tracer showed up, we were friends. Probably my only friend from overwatch. Before she showed up, Reaper told me to 'take care of anyone if they tried to stop us' as my leader, I will follow his orders. I position myself on top of a building while reaper heads to the Talon base. No one arrives for a while. That was until almost all of the overwatch soldiers arrived.
     I didn't shoot any of them because right before I did, I heard something behind me, I instantly knew it was tracer, I was reluctant to do anything at first but I remember what Reaper said to me. I pull my combat knife out from its case on my left arm and turn around, putting my sniper on the ground. I look at tracer, "I'm so sorry Tracer" I said. She looked at me, disappointed "why? Why do you leave overwatch and go with Reaper?" She asked, clearly kind of pissed off. I stand there, holding my knife in my  hand, "a loyal soldier never leaves there leader, even if it's into certain death." I said. "But overwatch taught you everything yo-" she said before she was cut off by me. "Wrong, widowmaker taught me everything" I said. Tracer rolled her eyes. "Leave now, I don't want to have to hurt you, tell everyone that we are gone, and if you don't I'll be sure to make quick work of you" I said with a straight face, gritting my teeth knowing I just lost one of my best friends. She didn't say anything, she sighed then returned to the group, telling everyone that we are long gone. After Afew more minutes of searching they leave, and I pick my sniper up, put it on my back, and return to the ground, I walk to where Reaper told me the HQ was. And I climb on top of the building and fall asleep for a quick nap. Nothing regret fills my body, I know I may have just made a big mistake leaving overwatch, my mother won't be proud, they won't let me back in, I have no chance unless I'm with talon...
