Chapter 2: Back in Time - Page 2

sombra was mentioned once by reaper and the rest  of her info had to be datamined in order to find anything about her and moira was in overwatch all along but she wasn’t mentioned at all until she was ntroduced in the game proper

everyone thought orisa was gonna be doomfist but it wasnt and hammond being a hamster came out of nowhere

ashe was never mentioned by mccree at all despite being mccree’s old partner AND the leader of the deadlock gang and baptiste has ties with no one in the game and was never mentioned by anyone in overwatch OR talon despite the fact that he apparently knows too much and is actively targeted by talon agents

Jack’s only goal was to occupy Gabriel’s time until the rest of the team gathered enough equipment pin him down. Reports listed over a hundred soldiers involved in subduing the berserk commander. He seized the momentary confusion and swung with both his fists clamped together. Poor form and a whole lot of force. Every instructor he knew would be furious with him. But it did push the wall of muscle named Gabriel Reyes into the wall. 

Anger welled up within those eyes. No. Not just anger. Fury. Outrage. Jack had seen this look on Gabriel’s face before when taking down a contingent of Omnics that had massacred civilians. Gabriel never let anger rule his emotions. But on that day it was allowed free reign and scarred everyone who witnessed it. Now it consolidated onto one target. Jack Morrison.

His attempts to block were dismal. This monster inside Gabriel’s body was too strong. Too vicious. Every strike dented, broke the blue armor as Jack tried to shield himself. When those bound hands gripped Jack’s throat, Jack actually found a chance. Soft spots were almost always the same. A strong heel to the groin and Gabriel weakened. A sharp kick to his kneecap and the man went down. It wasn’t a long pause. And no one to follow up on it. 

And the glare Gabriel produced chilled the blood running through Jack’s veins. Payback was about to become vicious. Instead of attacking immediately, Gabriel regained his footing. Then he flexed and slowly the electromagnetic handcuffs started to separate. It was a show of strength. Jack would be lying if he claimed to be unaffected. 

He never saw the strike coming. The familiar fist to his jaw rammed his head into the tile. Like before it was greater force than Gabriel had ever had. Then another. One hand held Jack in place and the other slowly overcame the magnetic attraction of the handcuffs to rear back for another strike. This wasn’t the same animalistic berserker Jack lost to in the rotunda. This was more calculated. This was revenge against those who imprisoned him.

It was only in that strange silence broken by flesh violently impacting flesh that Jack heard the click. Gabriel heard it too if his pause was anything to go by. Neither registered the cause until Gabriel reared back, clenching a metal collar around his neck. He scream, thrashed, pulled at the collar. It was unmoving. Clearly causing him significant pain. The electromagnetic handcuffs snapped together. The first indication of Gabriel loosing the battle with the collar.
