*chapters from here on will most likely have cursing involved. I apologize in advance*

(Y/n) POV
I walk around the base not looking at anyone or even thinking. In all honesty I forgot I was even walking until I run face first into a very toned back. I look up and see this really buff woman with short pink hair, a cross scar over her right eyebrow, black and blue battle suit, and a weird cannon thing over her shoulder, looking down at me. I can't speak because she stares me down with, I'm not sure if it's anger at me for running into her or if it's confusion of this random guy at the base. Neither of us say anything until she starts talking with a thick Russian accent.

"Privet! I am Zarya. Are you the new recruit that Soldier told me about?"

I nod at her as she holds her hand out for me to shake and I hold out my hand to her. As soon as she grabs my hand I feel as if all my fingers are broken. I try not to cry out in pain as I force a smile to her.

"Y-yeah I'm (y/n). It's nice to meet you Zarya.!" My voice becomes high pitched when I say her name but she doesn't seem to notice. She lets go of my hand but I can't feel anything but I see that my pointer finger and thumb were dislocated. I look down at my hand and see something weird happening; the part where my pointer finger was bent was slowly going back to its original position by itself.

"Are you alright?"

"Hm oh uh yeah it's just, uh can you please direct me to a person who would know where I would be living in for the time being?"

She nods at me and motions for me to follow her. Neither of us talk as she leads the way. It was very awkward silence as for some reason no one was in the hallway. I try to start a conversation with her but I can't seem to find my voice. Zarya seems content walking in the quiet so I don't disturb her with meaningless small talk.

After about five minutes the silence wasn't that awkward but somewhat comforting. We reach what looks like an office with a lot of computers in a half circle. I look past the computers and see Winston working on something.

"Winston. I have here the new recruit. He would like to know where his quarters are located."

"Oh hey Zarya. Hello (y/n). You can just wait here. Lena will be here shortly to show you around the base." He smiles at us an motions me to a chair near his desk.

I slowly sit down as Zarya waves bye at us then leaves. I awkwardly start to twiddle with my thumbs. I hear the soft clicking of the keyboard until Winston clears his throat.

"So (y/n) are you okay? You seemed very pissed when you left the planes lounge area. Was there any Talon agents you had to fight?"

"Yes but there was only one. I think it was the hacker Sombra. She started to talk about my dad before you came into the room so I got uncontrollably angry. Sorry I didn't say anything then but I didn't want to say anything stupid." I rub the back of my head with embarrassment but he just starts to chuckle.

"Don't worry about anger issues with me. That's actually something I use to my advantage during battles sometimes."

"You do? That sound cool."

"Yeah heh. It's called my primal rage and it shifts my body structure to accordingly help me handle the power I get. But just to ask did you and Sombra physically fight?"

"No. Why?"

"The lounge was almost completely destroyed when I got in there. I was going to check the surveillance cameras to see what happened."

He motions for me to go next to him as he puts on the video. Nothing really shockingly happens until we see me push Sombra up against the wall. We see how everything started to float and break apart until the door opens as everything suddenly stops.

"Did I do that?" I wasn't sure about anything anymore because holy fuck the room started to be destroyed by my anger.

"It seems so. Are you sure you weren't experimented on as a kid or even a baby?"

"I-I don't know. I'm only just realizing I have these fucking powers now. I always knew I was different but this takes the cake."

Winston starts to think about something then he get this look of horror in his eyes.

"Is you last name (y/l/n)." It didn't sound like he was asking me but more of trying to comprehend his own words.

"Well yeah it is. Why?"

He doesn't say anything for a really long time as his whole body went stiff. I poke his arm but he remains motionless. As I was about to ask him again a short brunette runs into the room. She has short hair, a orange and white jumper, orange goggles, and this weird metal glowing thing on her chest.

"Hello love! I'm Lena. Soldier told me to show you around the base toda-" She stops her sentence to look at Winston who still hasn't moved an inch.

"Oy, Winston you okay?" She turns to me with confusion and worry in her eyes. "What happened to him?"

"To tell you the truth he just shut down when I told him he was right about my last name."

"Would you mind telling me it please?"

"Sure. Its (y/l/n) but why's that so important?"

"Is your dad's name Glenn by any chance?"

I don't answer her as I give her a blank stare. How the fuck do people know about my family? I know for a fact I never told her and i know my mom wouldn't have talked to her. My dad never mentioned us to anyone he's met because he still hated to be associated with my mom or anything that would involve her so I doubt he would tell anyone who he was married to or that they had a kid, right?

"Well is he?"

"Yeah. He is. How do you and Winston know any of this?"

"I don't know all of it but Winston probably does. All I know is that Glenn (y/l/n) was a scientist in Australia up until the whole outback got radiated, then he wandered the world trying to make the perfect experiment, but when he went to Germany his trail stops there. Naturally Overwatch and other organizations wanted to find him so we checked all of Germany front and back, side to side, and upside down at one point but no one was able to find him."

"He was in the U.S. after a year in Germany, then he moved to a small house in Dorado after about six years of wandering the U.S. with my mom, but they both moved away from that house to different areas after the divorce, then I don't know what happened to him."

Lena starts to quietly nod her head as she looks over at Winston who is still in shock. Before i even know whats going on I see her blink away with a blue light following her, then she's back with a huge blanket and a pillow.

"Can you help me push him onto his side?"

I nod my head as she puts the pillow down on the cha-that is a tire he's sitting on not a chair, and I slowly push him so his head was on the pillow. After that she draped the blanket over him and close his eyes so he could sleep off the realization of who I was related to.

"Well, it looks like he wont be waking up anytime soon, so I'll tell him what you told me as soon as he wakes up alright."

She smiles at me then she gets this look of realization. "Oh bugger, I need to show you around the base. Haha well no time like the present. Come on we can probably be done before lunch time." She grabs my arm and starts to explain what the rooms were for.

What. The. Fuck. Did I just learn about my dad.
