The Space We Cannot Fill

Deadlock was so excited for her first mission. After a month of adapting to Cypher's erratic sleep schedule, Raze's explosive pranks and Sova's captivating accent, Deadlock felt ready, readier than she'd ever be before.

It was a 12 V 11, with Deadlock's team in the lead. They were on team defenders. Deadlock and Raze would guard A and Sova, Cypher and Sage would guard B. She peeked, checking all entrances for a hint of a enemy. None. At that moment, Deadlock caught a glimpse of a enemy-wait-was that really a enemy or was that the yellow caution tape. She opened her mouth to tell Raze when a cold steel gun pressed her temple. The enemy Reyna hissed into her ear,

"Don't you dare!" Deadlock could only stay silent, her heart beating. Raze turned without bothering to check on Deadlock and rotated sites. Deadlock could only whimper. She spotted all her teammates forced to the ground with fear on their faces. Once brought to B site, enemy Deadlock took Deadlock's pistol, firearm and abilities.

"Let's make this simple. Your family, your team or yourself? Chose your family and you die long side your team. Chose your team and you die with your family and I hope you can guess the last one." Blood pounded in Deadlock's ears. Her family or her team. Her bloodline or her saviors.

"My team."

"Wrong answer."
