(#Wattys2018) Time Out! [Tracer x Male Reader]

Part 4

     A few days pass and you soon gain enough confidence to explore the world again. You walked out into your small kitchen and opened the refrigerator. You had immediately noticed that your food supply had been restocked with typical goods -- fruits, vegetables, meats, the like.

     As you pour yourself a bowl of Cheerios©, you hear stomping coming from the living room. It was the exact same Bastion unit from before. It stood beside you as the speaker on its head made the same, high pitched noise, with the same voice on the intercom.

     "I apologize for the sudden confusion. Let me introduce you to your new home. Welcome to King's Row, [Y/N]. This is where you'll be stationed for a while."

     After a pause, the Omnic took a slight sigh.

     "I have been informed of your behavior the other night at the festival. I give you this message: Do not release your frustrations on anything other than the Overwatch themselves. This isn't a request, it's an order. Lock up your anger so that when the time comes, you can unleash it on those bastards. Nonetheless, I cannot be fully disappointed. You were just experiencing new things like any living thing should. Just, be more cautious next time."

     The Bastion unit left after that message, once again leaving you with your thoughts. Your mind was filled with various things that you never really thought of until now -- Why was I put here? For how long? When will I be able to meet and destroy the Overwatch?

     You walked around outside, keeping your hood up, hoping nobody recognizes you from the festival. It was daytime, meaning you were able to clearly see some of the graffiti. Some of the art defended Overwatch's honor, particularly by saying nasty things about the Omnic race. You scoffed and quickly walked away, not wanting to stir up another incident. You walked farther and farther until you finally reached the sewers. The sewers really got to you -- There wasn't a single inch of wall or floor that wasn't covered in Anti-Omnic propaganda. You tried taking some deep breaths, closing your eyes, trying to imagine this as if it were all a dream. You then heard a very loud, screeching noise coming from the left. It was similar to the noise that the Bastion unit gave off whenever your master wanted to talk to you. You walked a bit more into the sewer, opening your eyes to see a giant tunnel in front of you. The noise was coming from the left entrance of the tunnel. You peeked your head out to see what it was, immediately spotting two large, bright lights heading your way. You stepped back, and almost instantaneously, a huge subway came to a halt in front of you. To your right, two doors opened, and crowds of people came flooding out of the subway, leaving it almost completely empty. Once this happened, many people from the sewer starting to pile into the subway, barely squeezing through the doors. Out of curiosity, you followed the lot of people, soon blending in as one. The conductor was asking everyone to pay for their ride. You, having no money, snuck away to the back, hoping nobody would notice that you hadn't paid. This was successful, and, once you reached the back, you got a good look at the inside of the subway. There were rows of cushioned seats attached to the sides. In front of them were large yet skinny, silver poles. Most of the people had all found seats within the past 10 seconds. Those who didn't were holding on to the poles. You then felt a huge push of gravity throw you to the floor, indicating that the underground train had started moving. An older-looking man saw you, grabbing your arm, hoisting you into a seat.

     "You alright, mate?", He asked you with a look of concern on his face. You replied with a slight nod. He smiled gently and stood up, leaving you alone. You turned behind you to look out of the many windows. The underground scenery on the outside was whizzing by you at unimaginable speeds. Your heart started to race as you began to doubt your decisions.

     What if I wasn't supposed to leave King's Row? What'll happen if Neuro finds out?

     These thoughts zoomed about in your head before you felt the train come to a stop, hearing a loud "SKRRT" noise accompanying the halt.

     The two doors had opened again, indicating you had arrived at the designated location. After pushing past the crowds of people getting off the train, you looked around. The sewers had looked rather different -- Mainly due to the less amount of Omnic slander. You hesitantly walked up the staircase in front of you, sensing a lot more movement coming from the ground above. The movement seemed a lot more urgent than in King's Row. You looked up and saw herds of people scattering around. The staircase was benched right next to a street that had the same kind of roads, but way, way busier. The buildings had appeared different, and yet still familiar at the same time. You looked around before seeing a giant, green sign that read "Welcome to Aldgate, London, England!"
