This is a story I made for  Maidz she was feeling down and I just had to do something. This is what it was n.n
And the wonderful piece was done by  Laune

This story is completely fictional, it does not represent how they truly met, it's fantasy. It's also focused quite a bit on overwatch, so if you like the game and want to read a little story, sit around and enjoy!

Gore and bow meet up.

It's a sunny day in Australia and we have Gore on the gym just finishing his morning routine, obviously likes to show his muscles as he goes around shirtless. Hits the showers and once done gets dress and goes towards his favorite place in town, the cafe internet. But this was not a normal cafe, on the first floor it looked just like any other cafe, but it had a basement where the real magic happened. It's was a gaming place, all computers with high end graphics and Max settings capabilities, the place was a heaven for geeks and gamers alike. There was even a computer set up inside a transparent room, isolated and locked down, it's said faker once played on it when he went on vacation with his parents.

Although a big fan of LOL, there was a new game gaining popularity really quick and with amazing potential, that game was Overwatch. So Gore selects his favorite computer, which luckily was available. So he sits down opens the game and gets ready to play as everyone around greeted him, being the most well know player in the area and Gore liked the recognition as he wanted to play on the big leagues, he was friend with Muselk and it was just couple months before tournament when they had a conversation about teaming up for it.

So Gore finally gets ready to play. Warming up at firts, like everyone else, the thing is here games were randomly selected players from within the cafe, with more than 100 computers, but most players knew each other, some new names seen every now and then, but commonly they were the same.

So Gore gets place in a game and he immediately gets confident when he sees his teammates, recognising all but one on the enemy team, bow was it. At first he didn't pay much attention to it, specially after he noticed it was a Hanzo player. Being himself a Genji, he knew he could go one on one and get easy kills on the enemy rear but o boy was he wrong. The first fight was going in favor of Gore team, as they killed 2 players on the other team but he spots Hanzo climbing a nearby wall and just when he was turning around to engage him, "Bow" turned around really quick and 1 shot him. Gore got mad and call out to his teammates to go on him but immediately after Bow took out Gore, Bow quickly dispatched the other 5 persons on Gore team, Bow was able to keep his distance and land nearly almost all head shots. And this was during the entire game, Bow just kept carring his team to victory.

Gore was really mad that a nobody outplayed him every single team fight and immediately after the game ends, he gets up and starts running around trying to find who is this Bow player, thinking of accusing him of a cheater.

Players were leaving and joining the cafe very often, so for him to find Bow was hard. But he finally finds a computer, with no one sit on it, with the play of the game of the Hanzo single handed team wipe. He ask the guys on the computer to a side asking if they know where the guy on this computer went to, which they said yes it went that way, pointing towards the exit and they also mention "BTW is a she not a he" , Gore could not believe it until he catch up to the player, she was wearing a black dress which made her stand out from the rest.
Grabbing her by the shoulder and forcefully turning her around, not caring that it was lady, asks her in a somewhat mad tone

"Are you the player Bow, a Hanzo main?"

Bow having the cutest face Gore has ever seen, when she is forced to turn around she had a small blush on her face, and with a tender voice she responds

"M-Maybe... Who are you? What you want? Leave me alone you bully Nya~"

Somewhat irritated, he accused Bow of trigger botting, to which she replied

"This cafe records every game and has cameras on every computer, just request to watch my game and you then judge. But just let me go, your hurting me >.< I'm gonna scream for help"

And he does let her go, realising he may have hold her too strong but not caring he goes on to the admins and request the footage. The admin being his friend agrees to the request which Gore saved on his USB so he could analyze it back home.
He arrives at his home and does a search on Bow but he is unable to find any ranking or record of her, she was a new player apparently. Being a top 500 player he felt there was no way a newbie was able to get so good at the game that quick, he though she had to be using an alternate account, any pro player who could be that consisted with Hanzo would be know by now, not even Seagull is as consisting.

Really mad at the situation, he asked his friends but they all responded the same thing, that no one has heard of her, let alone a Hanzo player who is as accurate.

He spend his entire day replaying the video over and over, and so did his friends, and they all agree that she was legit, there was no aimbot or trigger bot. She was just that good.
Gore not giving spent he kept at it until late nigth to which he fell sleep on his computer.

The next day he wakes up and decides that he will try to relax a little bit, so he decides to go to the gym, he packs his things and makes his way. But once he arrived, he hide as he saw her, Bow, walking around the gum (What is she doing here? She is a bit chubby, she doesn't look like the type to exercise... She looks nice on that black dress though).
And he decides go follow her while remaining hidden, and he follows here all the way to the pool area. Where she switched to a swim suit and went to the pool.
He kept an eye on her from a distance, feeling somewhat odd about stalking someone, but he was determined to find whatever he could about her.

And for various days he kept the routine, he kept stalking her, watching her swim, then following her to the cafe and requesting her gameplay footage which then he saw the gameplay back at his home, he was somewhat obsessed at this post to prove something that wasn't there.

One day though, while she was making her way to the swimming pool, she bumped into a big buff sergal, who immediately started yelling at her, she got scarred and Gore saw it, and without thinking he went to her and stand between her and the sergal.

"Don't get in my way Gore, this is not your business" Said the sergal.

"O but it is, so why don't you make the smart choice and stop"

"Make me" Said the sergal with a mad face.

"You sure about that, want me to remember you last time you made me mad?" -Grins and chuckles his fist-

And the Sergal took a step back, he knew he was no match to Gore. "Fine, I wil leave"

"Apologize to her before you leave"

"Tsk.... I-I'm sorry I yell at you" Said somewhat ashamed.

"And ?" Gore said while rising an eyebrow

"And ... Sorry I bumped into you, won't happen again"

Gore snorts and finally let's the sergal walk away. He turns around but doesn't say a word to Bow just yet.

"T-Thanks... But why you helped me, I though you hated me" Said bow, somewhat shy.

Gore scratch his cheek while looking to a side "I.. don't know.. I just did okay"

"Well... Thanks Mr...?"

"My name is Gore"

"Well thanks Gore, I guess I will leave... don't feel like swimming now"

"Wait, your going to the cafe right, mind ... If I uhmmm go with you, I'm heading there as well and that sergal might follow you"

"Yes I was planning on going, how you knew?" Said with a curious tone.

"A hunch"

"Oh...okay" Said still shyly.

And they made their way to the cafe, the walk was somewhat odd as they both kept quiet for the most part, bow limiting herself to nods and Gore not knowing what to talk her about, that's until they reach the cafe where he bought a frappe for each of them, they sit down on a table and just kept staring at each other for a while until Gore finally ask to bow about overwatch. At that point the conversation started going real fluent, talking from how they practice, their favorite pro players, their strategy and everything related to overwatch, and some LoL as well.

Gore found out that Bow does hunt In real life with a bow and arrow, plays tennis, sew, and a lot of hand-eye coordinating activities. This is why he believes she is as good playing.

From that day on they started playing together and soon after they found they were really good when teaming up. Both able to pick up each other weak leftover enemies and protecting really well.
On multiple occasions bow getting hook and Gore dashing immediately to stand in front of her and block the follow up shot. Whenever Gore was fighting a MCree, Bow would climb a wall and get a shot on the enemy to have him 1 shot and let Gore get the easy combo kill.
In general, they were dominating and soon both ranked really high on the leader boards, let alone the top 500 players.

Gore even had invited multiple times Muselk to have them all play together, and eventually they were invited to join the team for Australia, which they both eagerly accepted.

At this point Gore considered as one of the top Genji players alongside Seagul and shadowburn, and Bow considered the best Hanzo.

So they kept on practicing until the pre elimination which they won easily, securing their spot on the tournament. They couldn't be any more happy, or so it seems.

With their place secured, they had couple weeks before Blizzcon for the tournament finals. So they took this time for themselves.

Gore and Bow spent majority of their time together, really enjoying each other company. Bow made Gore swim with her even when Gore hates water. They watched alot of anime, Re:Zero, Stains Gate, JoJo Bizarre adventure, among others. Gore started taking Bow to more places, be it the movie theater, ice skating, to the beach, fancy restaurants, until one day it happened... They kissed. Living each other by themselves, Bow moved in with Gore and they started living together, and while she had already stayed with him before, she was extremely shy and nervous about it, but so did he.
It took only a week for them to get a routine going that worked really well, they divided chores and both where getting money from their sportsmanship, Bow gained popularity extremely fast as well, being know as the only player who could be as consistent for tournament play with Hanzo, her duels with Kephri became a thing of pride, getting a rivalry going between them. Even Seagull was a little bit jealous of her.

Their time together was full of joy and love, going trough alot of feelings for the first time, they were both experimenting and learning together, their first time... was something they would never forget, but one thing was certain. They loved each other, very deeply.

So the time for blizzcon approaches, already have their tickets and everything else ready, and they decide to spend their final days before the tournament off the game, and instead go out together. Bow took Gore in a little hunting trip, and surprisingly he learned quite fast how to use bow and arrow, they feasted multiple nights, Bow was impressed on how quickly he pick it up, apparently Gore had excellent marksmanship.

"I'm gonna report you, you have IRL aimbot, you hacker" She said and laughed

"O yeah well I'm going to DDOS you and good luck connecting " He said with a fake mad tone and look.

"But we use the same connection, if you do that, your also disconnected"

"...Right... Forgot about that" And they both started laughing after.

The final days pass quickly, and it's finally time, they pack their things and travel to blizzcon for the Grand Finale. They go directly to the hotel to leave their things and decided to go around town and see what they could find and just spend a good day before the tournament.

Next day, its finally the day they were waiting for, Overwatch World Cup Tournament. They gear up and go, but just before entering the convention center..Gore stops Bow.


"Bow... I know it's so sudden, I don't know how to say this but... look I have been having alot of fun with you, your a crybaby, jealous and a brat" And upon hearing this, she looks to a side and frowns

"But I love that" He said with a grin to which she got surprised.

"I love taking care of you, I loved the time that fan tried to invite me out and you putted her in her place, I love spending time with you, I love the time you call me your Hero... I love you..." Hearing this words made Bow get really emotional and almost start crying.

"I'm certain we will win this tournament together, so Bow... once this is over" And gore gets on his knees and pulls a small box. "Would you marry me?" Bow jumps at Gore crying if happiness, and screaming "Yes, I will marry you" They lock in a very passionate kiss as they know that no matter what happens in the tournament, they already won something more important than money.

-The End.
