-----------------Cora's POV-----------------
The day I would meet Jack again was finally here. Reaper had already told father that I would be out on a mission with him and Sombra. Since the upgrade, my body has gotten quite sick. I was bed ridden for a couple of days, Reaper and sombra insisted to go in my place but I ignored their concerns. I needed to be there.
I was waiting in the aircraft with Sombra. She notified me that Jack was already in El Dorado due to a gang's activities. It was said that he was fighting for good in his own way but no one knows what he wishes to accomplished.
''Amigo, you sure you don't want to stay back and rest up.'' Sombra broke me out of my trail of thought.
''I am sure, I've been in bed long enough and I don't think you two could convince him either.'' I responded buckling myelf into my seat.
''Yeah, but you looking a little pale.'' She tried to push.
''Sombra''
''Okay, okay. But we don't have Moira with us so who knows what could happen.'' She shrugged and suggest if anything happens she will say, I told you so.
Reaper had entered the aircraft, closing the hatch behind him. Sombra approached him and was whispering something. I tried to listen carefully, and that's when their voices amplified. Everything was loud. I covered my ears hoping to silence the sound.
''Ow!'' I yelled again this pain which shouldn't be possible. Was the upgrade in fact making me weaker? We had no idea if pain was a side effect or permenant.
''What's wrong?'' Reaper asked, rushing to me.
''Everything just suddenly got loud.'' I explained still covering my ears, taking deep breaths in and out.
''Maybe you should stay back, me and Reaper will go for you.'' Sombra gave one more attempt to convince me.
''I said NO!'' I roared at her, she took a step back shocked at the response. ''Sorry. But I do mean it when I say No, I am coming with you.'' I replied.
''Very well. But we have warned you.'' Reaper walked over to the pilot seat and fastened the buckles. Sombra took the co-pilot, in this situation it was better they drove. It was going to be a long ride to El Dorado.
--------------------Time Skip-----------------------------
''Cora, wake up'' I was shaken awake by Sombra. My eyes opened adjusting to the light. ''We are here, amigo.'' I could there was a smile on her face. From what I heard she grew up here and was happy to be home.
''I'm up'' I responded as I unbuckled myself and got out of the seat. I stumbled forward a bit.
''Woah, amigo!'' Sombra caught me. ''You seriously aren't doing good.'' She responded looking to see if Reaper was around to help. He wasn't. I forced myself up.
''Where is Jack?'' I started to ask, as I straightened myself up. ''The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can head back.''
''You really are stubborn, just like what Gabe said.'' She smiled sadly. ''Come on, let's go.'' She made sure I was stable enough to walk.
Reaper stood waiting outside the aircraft for us.
''What took you so long?'' He demanded. Sombra elbowed him the ribs earning an ow out of him. He glared at her and she just shook her head before taking the lead. Reaper and I followed behind without a word. The city was noisy, with explosion and gunshots.
''Is it always like this?'' I asked Sombra.
''No, it's just the gang that I set up to draw Jack's attention.'' She explained. After one final explosion, it was quiet. We stood in at the end of an alley, Sombra said he would come through if he were to return to his warehouse where he's been hiding out at. We stood there, waiting and waiting.
''Are you sure he'll come through this way?'' I demanded, my anger rising.
''Trust me, amigo. He will come.'' She assured me.
''Who's there?'' A familiar voice echoed through the alley. Reaper took a couple of steps closer to where the voice came from. Out of the shadows, there he was, Jack. But his face covered with a visor.
''Been a while, Jack.'' Reaper said as he removed his mask revealing his scarred face. He barely removes his mask anymore, only to sleep, eat and shower.
''Gabe?'' He asked, in return he removed his mask as well. Showing his scarred face too. ''What are you doing here?'' He demanded, still shocked.
''I need your help...well 'We' need your help.'' stepping to the side revealing my presence, I probably looked weak as his expression went from surprised to worry but that after a thought hardened his face.
''Jack, we need your help.'' I began.
''I'm guessing your Cora right now.'' His tone was cold.
''Jack, (y/n) is still in there.'' Reaper tried to convince.
''How can I be sure. When was the last time you spoke to them?'' He asked harshly. ''I can't help you. I won't help Cora.''
''This isn't about Cora...'' Reaper began. ''Well, it kinda is but it isn't''
''How?''
''Jack, I know you are hurt for what we have done to you. But this is about putting an end to this once and for all. We need Overwatch again. Winston has already made the call.'' I explained.
''Putting an end to what?'' He questioned
''Putting an end to Talon and setting (y/n) free.'' I told him.
''How can I believe you?'' He seemed like he was going to be hard to convince but.
''Because I'm going to do what I should of done a while ago.'' I paused thinking about it. ''I'm going to wake (y/n)''
There was silence as I closed my eyes and began releasing (y/n)'s conciousness.
---------------Your POV, you're back, baby!-----------------
You opened your eyes in unrecognisable place, you panicked looking around.
''Where am I?'' You demanded, looking between the 3 that stood there. It took a moment to recognise Jack and Gabe. But they looked older, not only that their faces were scarred and Gabe's eyes were red and the whites of the eyes were black. ''Jack? Gabe? Is that you?'' You asked, scared and confused.
''Yeah, it's us.'' Gabe confirmed, he seemed to be smiling gently. Was he happy?
''How long have I been gone?'' You demanded.
''Your not going to like it but you've been gone for more than two years...'' He replied.
''More!? But Cora promised.'' You felt like you have missed important things. Very important things.
''Kid, calm down.'' You could hear Jack say noticing cracks were forming underneath your feet. Was that you? Creating destruction?
''Oh no! What has Cora done to me?'' You were freaking out more, the other seemed to like they were getting weaker...
Was this all my doing?
You began to try and run to get away from them before hurting them. But you felt something hit your shoulder, you felt tired...everything went black again.
---------------Jack's POV------------------
I ran forward and caught (y/n), then looking around to see where the sleep dart came from. The roof. Had she been following me?
''Ana'' Was all Gabe said.
''What's going on with (y/n)?'' I demanded, (y/n) didn't have these abilities before when I last saw them.
''It's the upgrade. Now I know what it is...'' A lady stepped forward, I knew she was there with Gabe and (y/n) but I had never met them.
''Who are you?'' I raised an eyebrow.
''I'm Sombra, I pulled the strings. I mean I got you to come to El Dorado.'' She smirked. I was taken slightly a back. ''Anyways, seems like the upgrade that they received was in fact pure elements but not any ordinary combination.'' She paused.
''What was it, Sombra?'' Gabe seemed desperate to know.
''It was a combination known as the 7 deadly sins. One that could wipe out an omnic army...'' She explained. ''Y/N is now becoming one of the most deadliest weapons in the world.'' Sombra stated.
