Reaper awoke on the ground, he opened his brown eyes to see snow falling, he sat up and looked around. The snow around him was falling hard, it was hard to see anything, he got up and looked around, his eyes shot around him as if he was an animal that was trapped in a cage, wanting to get out. He looked down at what he was wearing, a long black coat, over his grey and black attire, his beanie no where to be found. "Ana if this is some sort of joke, its not funny" Reaper growled, he expected to see someone pop out of the trees, but nothing, its was silent. Soon gunfire could be heard not to far from where he was, his eyes widened when he saw the newbies and Jack, Reaper ran towards them, on the way he picked up two black shotguns. "Morrison what the hell is going on!!" Reaper got behind cover as the enemy was shooting, but before Jack could even answer, an explosion went off near them. Debris fell on top of Reaper, making him unable to move, he saw that Jack was laying lifeless on the ground. Reaper felt his heart drop as he saw an Oplition solider point a gun at Jack, who was trying to get up. "NO NO NO!!!!!" Reaper yelled loudly, he struggled as he tried to get the debris off of him, But it was too late. The gun went off, "NO!!!!!"

Reaper jolted up yelling no, he was panting heavily, as if he ran a marathon, he was sweating heavily, and shaking. He stood in that position until he heard a knock at the door, "Reaper, its me Mercy, I need to do your monthly check up!" Mercy seemed to be in a hurry, Reaper snapped out of his nightmare and opened the door, "Make it quick" he said gruffly. Mercy nodded and came in, Reaper closed the door and sat of the bed, he was still sweating and panting, Mercy took notice of this almost instantly, "Reaper.........what's wrong" she set her bag down and took out her thing. Reaper didnt answer her, he took off his shirt so she could check him, his look gave it all away, he needed help. Mercy first took his blood pressure, "Reaper, what is wrong!" Mercy's soft voice became stern, Reaper looked at her and sighed, "Just had a bad dream" his eyes looking away from her, "What was it about?" Mercy said checking his heart beat. It was beating fast, "Nothing important" Reaper's heart beat was fast, Mercy sighed. "Go see Winston" she put up her stuff and looked back at him, "If you wont tell me, tell him" she stormed out of the room.

After awhile Jack woke up, he opened his eyes to see the celling of his room, he sighed and touched his lips. Blush began to climb up his cheeks again, he tried to shake it off while taking a shower, after he finished he changed and went to explore a little, before they had to train to newbies again. He walked out his room and decided to go to the other far side of the buildings, which were filled with simulation rooms and medical centers, along with labs and testing rooms. He sighed as he kept thinking about the kiss, he couldn't shake it out of his mind, he closed his eyes and kept walking slowly down the hall. "Are you lost?" Jack felt a soft hand touch his shoulder, he turned to see a bright blonde women, about his height, looking at him. "Uh...No I'm just looking around" his voice was still a bit shaky, "Are you the new second in command?" Mercy said brightly, she noticed his shaky voice. "Yea, I'm Commander Morrison, or Jack" He said extending his arm to her, Mercy smiled, "I'm Mercy, one of the medics and scientist" she said taking his hand and shaking it. "I'm glad you decided to join Overwatch, no if you will excuse me, I just got done with checking someone and I need to get this to the data room, I will see you around" She smiled and left in a hurry. Jack continued down the hall, he stopped when he heard Reaper's gruff voice, he didnt like to spy on people, but he just wanted to listen. "It was Jack!!!! Dammit" Reaper punched the wall, Winston sighed, "Gabe will you tell what is wrong" Winston was worried, "That same day, the day we lost people, that nightmare, I lost Jack instead" Reaper's eyes filled with worry. Winston eyes went wide when he saw tears fall, "Reaper......" He went over as put his hand on his shoulder, "I'm falling for him Winston.........I like him......God why me" Reaper couldn't help but let the tears fall, he put his hands on his head, covering his eyes. Jack couldn't help, but blush, Reaper was falling for him, but Jack was falling for him to. Jack moved to the training deck, he had to compose himself to what he just heard.

Reaper wiped his eyes, he has never cried before, he hated it, "What do I do Winston" Reaper said looking at his friend. Winston sighed and took off his glasses and looked at Reaper, "Do what you think is the right choice for you and your second in command" Winston looked at Reaper sternly, Reaper nodded and walk out the room, he had his hands in his pocket as he moved to the training deck. When he got their, he saw Jack, "Jack....Lets go wake up the Newbies" Reaper's voice was slightly shaky, Jack sighed as he started to walk past him. Reaper gritted his teeth and caught he shoulder, which made Jack face him again, "Jack, I wanted to say I'm sorry for my actions last night, I have no Idea what got int-" before Reaper could finish Jack pulled him down slightly for another kiss, Reaper at first was surprised, but then he kissed back, moving his hand down to his hips pulling him closer.

Mei had gotten up early and was exploring the building, she had pen and paper in her hand, she loved keeping herself busy, along the way she met Winston. "Who's glasses are these?" Mei picked up a decent sized pair of glasses, she looked to see a gorilla in a lab coat freaking out, "Athena I cant find them, where could I have left them" Winston was looking everywhere. Mei smiled lightly and walked into the room, "Umm... excuse me, are you looking for these" Mei had a sweet soft voice, it was calming, Winston jumped a little to the new voice, he turned and smiled. "Why yes....I was" Mei smiled and handed him the glasses, she looked around in amazement of the lab, "This lab is so cool" She said looking at Winston, who was adjusting his glasses. "Thank you, my name is Winston, I'm a scientist here at Overwatch" Winston said brightly, "I'm Mei, I'm a trainee here" She said just as brightly as Winston. "Oh I hope you like it here, I assume your instructor is Commander Reyes and Jack?" He said going to his desk, "Yes actually, though is it normal to be scared of Commander Reyes?" She asked a bit shakily. "Ahh dont worry about Reaper, he may seem scary, but trust me, he is a good man" Winston said, hopping Reyes was ok, "Oh, I guess" she said still looking around the lab, "Well I must be on my way, I don't want to get into trouble" Mei waved good bye to Winston. Winston nodded and watched her leave. Mei kept going, as she traveled to the training deck, she was still writing as she entered, he eyes shot up at Commander Reyes and Commander Jack making out!?!, Mei was so startled she dropped her pen. Jack pulled away as he heard the pen drop to the ground, Reaper let go of Jack and stared at the door, Mei had already ran off, she honestly didnt know what she had walked into.
