Genji x Female Cyborg Reader part 1

Looks like I'm back in the saddle again. Here it is, SayuriCrescent.

As you ran into the vacant movie theater, your breath started to get painful and turned into pitiful wheezing after you closed the door behind you and your partner, Genji. You used all of your might to keep the door shut at the relentless kicking and thumping of the stray Omnics behind it. You felt yourself slipping forwards and tried to correct your grip on the stained carpet. "I can't hold it any longer!" You cried out in pain and despair. "Yes, you can, push harder!" Genji shouted. "I'm slipping away!" You shout. And indeed you are, the artificial butter slathered on the floor prevents you from pushing against the door. "Listen, I don't think you understand. If we open the door; we let them in." Genji shouts.

You tried to push yourself against the metallic door, but you slip on a puddle of butter.

Your heart thumps as you slip away from the door.

Genji couldn't hold it by himself; even with his enhanced body. He recognized that he's going to be crushed and leaped away from the door. "(Y/N)! Get up-!" He was cut off mid-sentence by a hit that swept him away. The stray Omnics surrounded you and started hitting you, crushing your bones, tearing your limbs apart. You scream in agony as you blood spills and your consciousness fades. Before you succumb to shock, you hear Genji screaming at the top of his lungs: "RYŪJIN NO KEN WO KURAE!"

And then everything fades to black.

You weaved in and out of consciousness for six months now. You can vaguely remember having people around you, but you can't remember any faces, voices or names. Except for one which stood out in your bogged mind. Genji. He was at your side all the time, you can remember hearing him talking to you, but you can't remember what he said. Meanwhile, while you lay -almost lifeless- on your hospital bed, Genji is sitting near you, talking to Dr. Ziegler. He hasn't moved from the chair for the last three weeks, and that's after he was forced to go and get repairs. He was severely damaged after that battle, but he refused to get fixed until you woke up.

"It's all my fault, Angela. I could've acted faster, hit stronger. I could've saved her." He says. "It's not your fault, Genji. It's a miracle you even managed to save (Y/N)." She says. "But we're running out of options." Angela bows her head down and puts a comforting hand on Genji's shoulder. "What do you mean?"

"We will need to pull the plug." She says "Unless... No. I can't, it's too risky." "What's too risky?" Genji asks. "Full mechanization, the same procedure you went through." "Do it," Genji says. "But it's too risky, we don't even know if she's fit for-!" "Do it!" Genji shouts in desperation. "G- Genji, you don't really have a say in this..." Angela says. "It isn't like she can decide for herself does it?" Genji sighs. "What other options do we even have eh?"

"Pull the plug-" "Exactly. Now, do it. Please, Angela. For her sake."

"Understood." Angela's gaze turns colder and she walks out of the room.

Genji is pacing back and forth outside of the operation room, a worried face hidden behind his mask. "Genji, you need to calm down, love. I'm sure she'll be fine." Lena says, trying hard to stay positive."I doubt it." Hanzo says. Genji looks at his brother in disbelief. "Let's be honest here. She was always weak." Hanzo says. "Why you little-!" Genji is about to go for Hanzo's throat.  "Calm down, dear!" Lena called. "That was uncalled for Hanzo." Jesse puts a hand on Hanzo's shoulder. Genji looks at Hanzo as if expecting something from him. "Are you waiting for me to apologize?" Hanzo asks. "Is it that obvious?" Genji snaps back.

"Then keep waiting." Hanzo turns around and leaves. "Listen, Genji, I hate to agree with Hanzo, but he has a point. No matter how bluntly he said it." McCree says. "You too, Jesse?" Genji asks. "Trust me, I don't want it to be true as well, but we've got to acknowledge the statistics. Chances aren't great." McCree says. "That was the case with you too." He reminds Genji. Genji sighs and slumps down to the floor. "You're right."

Hours passed and Genji still sat there, waiting. Preparing himself for anything Angela might tell him when she walks out of that room.  During those hours, people came and went. Tracer went to visit her girlfriend. McCree went to go eat and hasn't come back yet. Mei came by to cheer Genji up along with Junkrat, who tried to cheer him up with jokes.

 But he stays gloomy. Hanzo's words have got to him, and doubt grows, casting a shadow on his hope.

"Genji." Angela calls out, clad in surgical scrubs and wearing a sterile mask. "I have some news."
