You were hoping to wake up to Reaper but instead, you woke both woke up instantly to the sound of alarms and flashing lights. You and Reaper jump out of bed and look at each other. "What is happening!" You yelled trying to be louder than the alarm.
"It means the base is under attack.....and there is only 12 of us in total,..........Get your combat gear on and grab your rifle and meet me in the hallway" Reaper turned into a mist and disappeared in the crack in your door.
Your eyes widened in almost panic but you quickly regained focus as you got dressed in your armor and grabbed your pulse rifle on the way out.
In the hallway, the Reaper was waiting with his guns drawn. You couldn't focus very well with the alarms going off but it soon shut off but the red flashing light continued. You and him ran through the base trying to find the attackers or the fellow Talon soldiers.
You heard faint gunshots but they only lasted a second making it hard for you both to find where it was coming from. You followed Reaper closely through the hallways but soon you found your self in the empty dropship bay. You notice a Talon soldier that was bleeding out on the ground, you pointed it out to Reaper and you both ran to him.
"What happened!" Reaper spat.
"It was Overwatch, they knew....they are here" He struggled to say, he soon stopped moving and you could see the life leave him. Reaper curses under his breath as he began running towards another hallway, he looked back to make sure you were following.
You see something blink past you in the corner of your eye, you gasp and yell to Reaper to warn him. Soon you heard a Brittish girl tease you as she fired a few bullets into your armor.
"Too slow!" She yelled as she disappeared with a blink. She returned again, shooting a few bullets into your armor but this time you felt one go into your side, it wasn't enough to keep you down it just hurt. This time you were ready, she appeared again and you shot a helix rocket at her, you heard her scream before disappearing again, this time she didn't come back. You looked at Reaper in confusion and he just shrugged. Reaper motioned you to continue and you did as told. Reaper opened a glass door with a hand scanner, he passed through but right as you tried the door closed between you and him. Reaper turns around quickly to see you trapped on the other side, he was about to press the hand scanner again but you and him were soon blinded for a second. It was a flashbang. Soon the effect wore off and you saw Reaper and McCree in some sort of standoff like in some western. Your worst nightmare is coming true, two people you cared about going into a fight. McCree sees you and glares at you but not the angry kind, more of a guilt kind.
"Are you sure you want to do this Jesse" Reaper growled.
McCree gave a little chuckle as he dropped his cigar from his mouth onto the floor. He seemed to know that McCree was a fast shot because instead of taking a gun dual Reaper charged McCree into the wall like a bull. McCree let out a groan before hitting Reaper repeatedly in the stomach causing him to growl until he released. He was still in a hunched position and McCree continued to punch him in the stomach.
"I don't understand!" he continued to hit Reaper as you watched in horror, you felt so helpless watching this, you tried to yell to McCree to stop but he didn't listen.
"Why does she have such shit taste in men!" He seemed to be hitting harder now and Reaper seemed unable to break free from the beating.
"I have been here for her! But instead, she falls for people like you and like Reyes!" McCree's eyes soon widened as the man in his grasps seemed to disappear into thin air, McCree kept looking at his hands in disbelief but little did he know Reaper was forming behind him.
"Goodnight Jesse" Reaper raised his gun and you closed your eyes waiting to hear a gunshot but instead you heard a smack, you opened your eyes to see McCree knocked out on the ground alive. Reaper spared him...for you. You watched as Reaper walked over to the scanner causing the door to open.
"Thank you" You whispered. He replied with his usual inhuman growl.
You and him left McCree there and continued to find more of the intruders.
You found many dead soldiers leading to an open courtyard. You saw a dropship hovering in the courtyard, inside you saw a familiar face, Angela. You clenched your fist as you looked up.

You felt a gun raised to your head.
"Don't you move you fucking monster or her brains will be going all over you." McCree snarled. You have never seen McCree like this, you have never heard him threaten you either. You felt your heart race as the cold gun pressed against your head. "McCree please" You tried to reason with him.
"No! You are coming with me" He spat as he began to nudge you forward while keeping a strict eye on Reaper. He pushed you towards a rope hanging from the dropship, you turned your head to look past McCree at Reaper, Reaper just stood there frozen. You weren't about to let McCree easily kidnap you, McCree was your best friend but you were starting to fall for the masked man and you weren't about to lose out on love again. McCree nudged you again but this time you turned around with lightning fast speed grabbing the gun from him, you followed with a punch to the face causing him to stumble back. His eyes were filled with tears of betrayal and heartbreak. "Just leave McCree!" You snarled as you eyed him, your pulse rifle was now in your hands and facing him. McCree never left your eye contact as he held on to the rope, Reaper was now next to you looking up at McCree who was now in the ship. Your eyes widened as he held a different gun outstretched and aimed at Reaper. "No!" You yelled as you moved in front of Reaper. The gun rang out and it felt as if the world was moving in slow motion. You jumping in the way cause McCree to quickly move his hand at the last moment causing the bullet to not hit Reaper directly instead of hitting the side of Reapers mask and head. You turned watching Reapers mask fly off and Reaper fell to the ground, you could tell by the shot that it probably knocked him unconscious, you looked up at McCree who was flying away in the ship with anger in his eyes.
You turned back to Reaper who was on the ground not moving when you moved closer to him you gasped and fell to your knees beside him. Your whole body shaked as you sobbed in a mix of emotions. "Gabriel?" You cried out in horror.
