My assassin girlfriend (widowtracer au)

Weak

Tracer pov

I sit in my room,looking out of the barracks window to the new HQ.
It sits in a forest,cliffs to the north and east,trees as far as you can see in the west,and a beautiful lake to the south.
My phone buzzes on my bedside table,I pick it up and it is a voicemail from Emily again, I had not listened to the last few but I pick this one up.
"Hey babe it's Em...again,I know you had to leave quick...duty calls I guess,but it's only been a month and I already know that a relationship like this will not work,you barely  ever answer,I know your are at work and all,but you must have some down time,your just not the kind of girl who can keep a relationship going long distance,no offence. You said that you would be there for at least a few years, so I am sorry to say this, and I will hate myself forever,but I think we are done". The voice recording ends,leaving me with an unbearable silence. I tear up a bit, I would have balled,I would have argued,but I knew this was coming,I could barely keep us together when we lived in the same house,let alone across the ocean.
I just open my mini fridge,poor a shot of vodka,and keep the tears from coming.
A couple minutes later I get a text.
"Be on the barracks roof in ten" it says
The "barracks" are more an apartment complex in the middle of the base.
I sigh, expecting a prank from Hanna or Mcree.
Even though I think it is nothing I pull on a holster and put a small 9mm pistol in, not my usual pulse pistols because I keep all my other gear in the armoury.
I walk up the stairs,taking my time,as I was a little tipsy.
I arrived and find a surprising sight,the purple Talon sniper,Widowmaker standing there.
My mid races as I draw my gun and point it at her,for some reason her rifle sat to the side,propped up against the chimney.
She offers a smirk.
"Your not going to shot me,Are you Lena"? She asks with a smirk, her thick French accent making her sound very superior
I tackle her to the ground,filled with rage, screaming as I try to punch her, but she slips out of my reach and moves slightly closer to her gun, just enough to cause a standoff, because she could get the rifle as fast at I could bring up the pistol, and I'm not the best shot, being used to automatics.
"Lena...calm down...do you not remember my face, I thought you knew...it's me Lena,it's Amelie". Her eyes fill with a sadness, realizing the look of fear and anger on my face.
"What...no...how". I am completely in awe,she was Amelie, but my idiot ass kept my hand on my pistol, ready to raise it.
"Talon,they have been mind controlling me or something,for so long it has felt like I am watching someone else live my life,every day I would go and they would wipe my neural network or something,like a hard reset,until a couple days ago,I had a strong feeling to not go and I slipped off onto the dropship,I have been slowly regaining control,I'm me again,but I have done so many horrible things, I...so many deaths...Gerard". The last bit barely escaping her lips.
"That was you"? I blurt out, then regret it as her face fills with more pain, looking down at my gun.
"And I hurt you,I almost killed you...I'm so so sorry". She starts to cry.
"Amelie, It's fine...it wasn't you". I don't completely trust her, as her hand is dangerously close to my holstered pistol.
"I don't even feel like my self anymore,I can do all these things,I can out shoot almost anyone,I have lightning fast reflexes,I have the skills of the worlds best assassin,and look at me." She gestures at her arms,and their dark purple colour.
"Used it as a gift luv,you can make up for what they made you do, rejoin Overwatch,help us make the world a better place again". I plead,trying to cheer her up, I don't know how but I can tell in her soft voice that she was in such pain that it was the truth, there was no semblance of the woman that nearly killed me.
"I wish nothing more than to help, but I won't join, not yet, but I will do my part."
"What would that be?" I ask,surprised by her answer.
"I can still get into Talon, I can get you info, we have the data for nearly everyone that had ties to overwatch, from pilots to task force members knowing what Talon knows will save many lives".
"That...that'll work, let's talk this over with the rest of us,see if we can help".
"Ok...good idea".
I open the door but she grabs my hand,shots her grapple hook onto the sidewalk,pulls me close,and kisses me just before she pulls us to the ground.
"I missed you Lena, every minute of the day." She sighs, taking my hand into hers.
I am a little flustered as we walk to main HQ, the Amelie I used to know would never have done that,but then again,maybe that's not a bad thing.
I open the large blast door with the hand scanner and lead her to the conference room.
I turn on my wrist mic and radio Commander Morrison and Ana Amari.
"Could you kindly report to the conference room, I have a surprise". I chime into the wrist mounted device.
Ana is the first to arrive,I guess she was at the shooting range because she still has her biotic rifle slung over her shoulder and pistol in its holster:
She notices Amelie and in one motion,grabs her sleep pistol ,aims down sights,and fires, hitting her in the arm,knocking her out in a second.
"What in the hell  is she doing her Lena"?! She shouts, pulling the rifle from her shoulder and zeroing it on Amelie's chest.
"Ana calm down, we talk this out and it will be ok." I move my hands slowly, looking like I was emphasizing my point but readying to pull my pistol on her, I had not racked the slide and it was on safe, so it wouldn't shoot, but worst comes to worst I can pull it until jack gets here.
"You know how that is right,she was the one who shot me,who did this"!
She yells, pointing at her eyepatch.
"No she isn't,Talon has her in some kind of mind control". I stammer, hopefully the commander would eat here quick.
"You believe her"!?
"Yes,this is my Amelie". I regret saying mine but Ana takes no notice of it and continues to argue with me, her rifle now pointing towards me, although none lethal from just one shot it would not be fun to fight with her.
"Lena think straight,this is a trap". She begs.
"No it is not Captain Amari,I trust her with my life".
"Is your will that weak? that you refuse to see that this little hunch could... no will kill us all". She screams, aiming back at Amelie.
"Fine my will is weak,but my heart,and my instincts,are strong,I know I am right". I am willing myself to pull the gun but I can't, I wouldn't threaten her even if she was going to kill me.
"No you do not,the deaths this will cause are on your hands".
"Ana stop,let Lena finish". Says the old soldier's voice,who had been standing in the shadows for god know how long.
"Oh not you too jack". Cries Ana
"You know as well as I Lena has the strongest will of the three of use,and she barely ever gets a gut feeling wrong".
"I know,it's just...". Ana lowers the gun but her stance is still combat ready, a sign that she was still very on edge.
"I get it,you want revenge,I knew Gerard as well as you,and she was the only one you ever lost a sniper fight to. I think you want to think that what Lena said is impossible". He continues,
"You heard that"? She asks sceptically, mirroring my thoughts.
"You both left your mics on". He chuckles
"Oh". We reach down and turn them off.
"Oxton,from the top,I want to hear it again". Jack says in a tone that nobody could say no to, a determined but reserved bark.
I explain everything Amelie said,Jack looking more open than Ana.
"You have to agree,this is a little hard to make up". He concludes
"Yes,but we know Talon has Moira,if people as smart as her join them,they can think up something like this".
"I propose a compromise,is Amelie waking up any time soon"? He asks
She opens her jacket,takes out two small flasks,mixes the red and white liquids together,making a dark pink. She grabs a syringe and fills it with the liquid,and stabs it in Amelie's neck,within thirty seconds she is up,a little drugged,but awake.
"Hello miss Lacroix,I am commander Jack Morrison,are you able to talk". The soldier says in a commanding voice, his face showing no emotion at all, the scar on his eye making him scarier than anything I could imagine.
"Jack...your alive?...they said you were dead". She says with a shock, her face a mix of happy and scared
"You remember me"? He asks, his face showing a split second of sadness or pity for the obviously hurt woman in front of him.
"Yes,I remember a lot of Overwatch agents,I kept them in my head, my memories...kept me
Sane".
"Even as you killed many of them"? Asks Ana, her tone still combative.
"That was not me Ana,I understand your bitterness,if it is any conclusion you should know I could not live with myself for weeks,I thought I killed you, you were like family to Gerard."
"I have to say you have become a nice shot,but that is besides the point,what exactly do you propose miss Lacroix?"
"There is no way for Talon to know where I am, I was out here to survey your base, I recommend That I rendezvous with my drop ship arriving two kilometres away in approximately two hours, I infiltrate Talon forward operating base bravo roughly sixty kilometres to the west, I reach the data achieves and download all relevant information to a drive that I shall share with you."
Jackie puts on his old smirk for a second, this tactical sounding statement probably making him believe her more.
"And what would you get in return Amelie?" He asks
"I simply want a pardon for the horrors I have committed under Talon, along with acceptance into an overwatch task force."
"That can be arranged, your orders are to carry out your plan as you stated and return with the data as soon as possible, use this transponder on a Talon computer if you are in need of assistance,you are dismissed." He hands her a small object and we are off back to my apartment, she grabs a bite to eat and we sit on my balcony, she talks about life in Talon and I tell her what had happened in the years she had been gone.
"Lena I missed you so much." She smiles sadly, pulling me closer and kissing the back of my neck, it felt good to feel her lips but they were so cold, nothing like the warmth they used to hold.
"I love you." She whispers in my ear, My heart flutters as a I hear the words I'd thought I'd never hear again.
I turn around and look her in the eyes.
"Amelie...we are going to be ok." I smile as I pull her into a hug.
Sitting in silence for a few minutes I look down at my watch and see it is time for her to go, She radios Talon,saying she could not get a clear shot or something.
"The dropship is on its way,I've got to get to the LZ". She says quietly, obviously not wanting to leave
"Be careful,I don't want to lose you again".
"It's ok,I get back and it will be like old times, I will never leave your side again after this." She smiles, pressing a small kiss on to my lips.
"Good luck love." I whisper as she walks out of my apartment, leaving me sad but hopeful that what she does will save a lot of lives in Overwatch.
