No Cheat Code // Mauga x Sombra

Pairing; Mauga x Sombra Word count; 2k ish

Ao3; https://archiveofourown.org/works/55583170 'He was all she could think about.

The closer they became, the less she wanted to know. It felt strange. Her enjoyment for always finding out secrets, her love for knowing more than the enemy, her need to be one step ahead. Now for the first time she felt as though it wasn’t needed. The itch she could never quite scratch with endlessly searching and finding every little detail about someone, gone.

Information is power.

But maybe this time being powerless wasn't a bad thing.'

Once in a while, the Talon base was empty and quiet. No loud obnoxious soldiers and raid operations, no mandatory meetings, or aggressive lectures from Akande. Even Moira was no where to be seen, hidden away in the dark depths of her laboratory. Today was a day Sombra had all to herself and her many glowing monitors. Just her and the many secrets she had yet to unlock.

Casually sat at her desk, slumped comfortably yet awkwardly in her chair, her fingers flickered among the glowing lights dancing around her and the monitors. Dressed down and comfortable in just a tank top and shorts, neon lights dusted her skin, glowing like binary freckles in the dark of the room.

While alone, her thoughts drifted away from her usual train of thought. With no prying eyes or code to break through, she allowed herself to focus on something for herself. Something she didn’t often care to think about; her own feelings and emotions. If she was buried in code and hacking, she’d didn’t have to acknowledge them, but now in the dark it was all she could think about.

He was all she could think about.

Information is power.

But maybe this time being powerless wasn't a bad thing.

It excited and frightened her. The unknown, not having options or a solid reason or explanation, or clear route of escape to run to. No cheat codes. The unknown sounded inviting this time.

Mauga was already an enigma, a force to be reckoned with. His charming and charismatic persona already hid a darker side, his carefree attitude cloaking his calculated and aggressive nature. He was a cunning warrior with a handsome smile and inviting personality. It was intoxicating, a deadly mix she couldn’t resist.

But she had seen another side to him, beneath the cracks in his tattooed armour was another side she was eager to find. This time without the help of her hacking and enhanced code-cracking. For the first time, she wanted to think with her heart, not her head.

Where’s the fun in playing fair?

Maybe sometimes it was more fun to be on an equal playing field. Expect the unexpected.

The holograms neatly hung in the space around her, their neon light dressed the room in a soft purple matching the glow of the binary tracks in her skin. Zoned out in her thoughts, the usually crisp lines of code blurred, her glowing fingers absentmindedly flicking through the files in the air until they landed on a familiar name.

Blinking slowly and letting out a steady breath, she stared at the name in front of her.

“Maugaloa Malosi…”

She couldn’t bring herself to look any further than just their standard Talon profiles, even though all his personal files were just a click away. All of his history. His family, criminal and medical records, residency, anything and everything. Like with anyone, she could find it eventually, but every time she thought about looking she hesitated.

Glancing at the profile photo next to his name, an all too familiar flutter filled her stomach as she gazed at his burning eyes. Fiery and intense, warm and inviting…

“Qué voy a hacer contigo…”

“What have I done now?”

Nearly jumping out of her skin at the booming voice behind her, and with a quick swipe of her hand the holograms all disappeared, reducing the room back to a dark dull hue. Spinning around from her position sat at the desk, she glared at the towering figure in the doorway of her room, his silhouette looming and intimidating.

“Ay! Don’t do that!” She hissed, her intense purple glare doing little to nothing against his confident smug smile. “How can someone as big as you be so damn quiet?!”

“Looks like someone was a little distracted”, he teased in a playful tune, sauntering in after ducking through the doorframe, “and I’d love to know what has you of all people so distracted.” The smugness oozed off of him, his wide smile never faulting as he slumped down onto a chest sat opposite her.

“Wouldn't you like to know,” Sombra scoffed, spinning in her chair to fully face him, shuffling in her seat with her arms now crossed.

“Oh I would” his voice lowered, eyes locking with hers, as he sat forward, resting on his elbows, “maybe then I’ll have something to use against you.”

“Oh, you’d like that..” She purred back, a smirk creeping across her deep burgundy lips. “.. to catch me off guard more often?”

“Yeah, I really would.” Reaching forward he used one hand to pull the chair closer to himself with no effort, positioning and locking it between his spread thighs leaving her with nowhere to escape. Not that she wanted to. “And I know you’d secretly like that too..”

Keeping her composure, even when he began to lean in closer, closing the gap between them, Sombra kept staring him down.

The constant bickering and rivalry had developed into banter and teasing, and recently flirting. There was something magnetic about him, and he couldn’t keep his attention away from her either. Mission or otherwise, they always seemed to find each other’s company. Gravitating towards each other and enviably finding one another as much as they denied it. Missions together were either a fiery inferno of chaos and destruction or perfectly executed and fluidly followed. They kept each other on their toes, never knowing what to expect but knowing either way they’d crave more.

Initially she had hated it, their friendship a long slow burn not without its clashes, forced onto missions and tactical relays with him until she realised she enjoyed the challenge and excitement that came with him.

“Come on, Chica,” his voice was low and raspy, his eyes fiery and intense and a smile on his lips that had her skin heat up. “Why else do you keep me around, hm?” Her eyes dropped from his to the hand gently brushing its knuckles against the bare skin of her leg. The longer she watched it, the more it began to caress further, only stopping when she looked up to him again. “You could have gotten rid of me months ago..”

“You have your uses, I suppose, besides..” she shuffled in her seat to sit forward, closing the gap further between them so she was face to face with him. Her smile matched his, wide and confident. “..you’d be lost without me”.

Reaching up she raked her long nails along the length of his jaw, scratching through the stubble there until he let out a contented grumble. His hands now both rested on her thighs, gently squeezing as her nails found a sweet spot under his chin.

“Nah, I just think you actually like having me around..” he managed to grumble happily, flashing her a wink before closing his eyes. “I’m starting to believe you may actually like me.”

Watching him closely, Sombra sighed, shaking her head. What was she going to do with him? Even while his eyes were closed, he was smiling at her, knowing she was probably rolling her eyes or thinking of some remark or even insult in response to his cheek. Maybe even a slap if he was really lucky.

Instead she raised her other hand to continue scratching and caressing his beard. Biting her lip, she considered her options. She literally had him in the palm of her hands.

He let out another low rumble, practically melting in her hands as she caressed his heavy jawline. Slowly she stopped to simply hold him, watching him with a small chuckle as his eyes slowly opened. They stayed there for a moment, simply watching each other, the tension for once not aggressive and intense.

Quirking a thick brow at her, Mauga’s soft expression began to creep into a playful grin again, narrowing his eyes as he studied her. “What’s that look for?”

“Oh nothing” she signed, gently flicking a loose strand of ivory hair from his face, dropping both hands back into her lap, “just wondering when you were, y’know, going to do it?” She pouted, staring at him expectantly.

He blinked, studying her expression. “Do what?” Mauga asked slowly, puzzled by her words but happy to play along with her game.

Her lips curved into a smile, the space between them closing as she leaned toward, her slender fingers gliding up the strong lines of his neck.

“This…”

Finally, her lips found his, pressing in closer as he instantly gave into the kiss. The hands on her thighs gripped firmly, his body going rigid before melting against the gentle scratch of her nails against his hot skin.

Pulling away, her heart pounding in her chest, she fluttered her eyes back open to meet his, glazed and entranced. Before she could utter another teasing quip, his lips crashed against hers again, feverish and eager this time. A large hand on the nape of her neck while the other found her waist, pulling her closer and into his lap.

It was like she had opened the cage, the animal inside finally eager to come out and explore and she was happy to let him.

“You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to do that..” he breathed heavily between kisses, nipping at her lip making her growl playfully. His grip on her waist was possessive, his fingers pressing into her lean exposed flesh.

“Took you long enough..” she teased, breathless as they finally parted. The look in his eyes and the taste of his lips threatening to make her mind wander.

“Didn’t want you getting a piece of me too easy” he grinned, his large canines tugging at his lips. “Gotta make you work for it, la’u Pele”.

“Oh I like a challenge, I’m sure I can crack your code, guapo”.

Pressing their foreheads together, he let out a deep breath before inhaling deeply. There was a deep rumble in his chest, the vibration rippling through her sending a chill up her spine. “You’re gonna be the death of me”.

Hearing the feral growl in his words electrified her. Her hands clinging to his broad shoulders possessively and in response he grabbed her waist, eagerly holding her close to him. Seeing how fiery his eyes had become from tasting her made her feel powerful, like she had found a small kink in his armour. A crack she was going to dig her claws into and rip wide open.

“That would be too easy," Sombra purred again, stroking a hand through his ebony curls while titling her head at him. His eyes followed her every move like he was hypnotised, “I’m going to be a nightmare for you. You sure you’re up for that?”

Gently he took her hand, raising it to his lips to kisses the circuit lines along her fingers. “It’ll be my pleasure, La’u ma’asoama”

Maybe it would be a good thing to be in the dark for a change. Not that any amount of research or code breaking could help her understand what was going on behind his deep amber eyes. Even with his full file and background at the tips of her fingers she’d be surprised by everything he did.

“Quite the charmer, aren’t you?”

“Oh, my little Aitu~” he sighed, carefully holding her delicate fingers within his much larger hand. “You haven’t seen anything yet”.

She giggled softly, trying to keep her cool as she watched him brush his lips across her knuckles again. With her free hand she poked the top of his nose, “I can’t wait to find out, mi Vida~”

Hey hey heyy :) I see that you do a lot Mauga x Sombra that is become soo addict now..I just want to know , what if one day Mauga would just , don't know, disappears from a mission and only come back to the Talon like..3 months after ??... did Sombra just get use or she would be a little anxious for the big man

(Ps: I BEG FOR FANFICTION WITH THIS DYNAMIC PLEASE GOD :') )

Talofa!~ Yes, join me... ♡♡♡

I may have gotten a little carried away with this, but here you go~ ♡

Thank you anon!!~

“Gone? What do you mean he’s gone?!”

“He’s a liability… he’s better off gone…”

Reaper snarled, his smoking silhouette disappearing off of the drop shop after touchdown back at the base. Sombra stood on the landing pad, a mixture of anger and confusion, glaring after the cloaked figure as he vanished from view.

She hadn’t been on the mission, but her partner in crime - Mauga - had been, and finding out he hadn’t returned with the rest of the squad made a knot in her stomach.

Sure, he had a habit of disappearing off and following his own rules on missions, but he always came back. She’d gotten used to his free nature in the time she had known him and admired it, even if it did drive her mad at times. This time would be the same, right?

It wasn’t hidden that many of the superiors of Talon didn’t like Mauga, Reaper especially found his erratic and chaotic nature difficult. His charisma and toothy smiles doing little to win him over. Sombra too found him challenging at first, but after being forced to work together, she eventually understood his charming facade and even enjoyed his company, favouring him over many others. In fact, she had grown attached to him, seeking him out, growing excited when she knew they’d be paired up again.

Her face contorted into a snarl, she clenched her fists, trying to keep her short temper contained. Reaper’s lack of concern for Mauga getting under her skin more than she thought it ever would.

“Such a shame, I was beginning to see his potential.”

Moira lamented as she sauntered past, hands folded neatly behind her back, glancing down at Sombra with a slight smirk. Any time she began to show interest in anyone was always a concern.

“Que te den, Moira…” she snapped, turning on her heels and back to her private quarters. Before she had even left the landing pad, she opened up her program in a bright burst of purple holograms around her, beginning her search for any pings and all cameras in operation at the location he was last known to be.

Their mission had gone bad, leaving little to nothing in the wake of their attack making it more difficult. Of course it had gone wrong, she wasn’t there, she thought to herself.

But, If anyone could find him, it was her.

Her heart raced, pounding in her chest as she searched, eyes darting across the multiple new glowing windows in front of her. Why was she so concerned with his whereabouts? Why did her chest ache at the idea of never seeing him again?

Slowly her temper simmered down, but it was replaced instead with concern and fear.

Back in her room she kept looking, biting her lip when she saw the destruction Reaper’s squad had brought on the factory they had descended upon. Mauga had caused more damage and survived worse. There was no way he was harmed or worse.

“Where are you, Cariño…” she muttered quietly to herself.

After hours and hours, long into the night, she finally paused her search. Nothing had come up, no leads and no sign of him.

Curling up into herself, she hugged her knees as she looked up at the screens in front of her from her desk chair. Stills of surveillance cameras of the last known sightings of him flickered next to endless sequencing of locations and names linked to him. He could be anywhere. He had to be.

She felt lost. Her heart ached.

Pining for him in a way she never thought she would.

Closing her eyes and resting her chin on her knees, releasing a breath she hadn’t realised she had been holding. His last words to her kept repeating in her mind, now more than 24 hours prior now; ~

“You better come back in one piece, amigo.”

She called out to him as he stepped up into the drop shop, chuckling as he watched her with crossed arms scowling at him playfully.

“Don’t worry, Sombs, I’ll always come back to you”.

Flashing her a wink with a smile that made her heart fluttered, he disappeared behind the closing shuttle doors. She stayed until they disappeared from view, not knowing that it would be the last time she’d see him for a while. ~

Back in her room she looked back up at his profile image, wishing that she could just pull him out of the hologram. Sombra wanted him back at base, she wanted him home, with her.

Her cheeks flushed at the idea of him returning just for her. The idea that he was only sticking around at Talon for her. She hoped that was the case, and her needless worrying was for nothing. He would just saunter in like he always did, smug and confident, teasing her for wondering where he was.

It hadn’t even been that long, and she was acting like a worried wife. He would come back. Hell, she had disappeared without a word, why was it so different for him to just disappear? She refused to let herself think it was because she cared deeply about him. That it was maybe because she had caught feelings for him. No. They were just close friends. Amigos. Partners in crime, like he said. Nothing more. Right?

But days passed, which turned to weeks, then months. He hadn’t been seen for 3 whole months with no communication or sightings.

Her faith in him returning to her was beginning to wane. Just like everyone she had formed a bond with, they eventually faded, pushed her away, used her or even died. There was a reason she was so distant with others, rarely bonding with anyone past needing something or a common goal.

Of course he was gone, just when she began to feel something more. Maybe she was just a fool, playing into his hands and his game, trusting him was the first mistake. Maybe his smiles and affection were just a facade. Not that it was anymore more than friendship. Maybe just a crush, she would kid herself, overthinking every interaction they ever had. He never left her mind and it was driving her mad.

“You’d think a man of that size would be hard to miss..” Widow sneered one day on a mission, grumbling again after his name had been mentioned yet again by the hacker.

She was right. How had he vanished?

But then again, he had a nasty habit of sneaking up on targets, surprising them and his teammates with how silent he could be. He was an excellent tracker. Even sneaking up on Baptiste was a feat in itself, and it still impressed her when she found out he had rolled into town without a second glance.

“If he’s still alive….” Reaper growled, catching a glare from Sombra through her holograms as she scanned the building opposite them.

Gritting her teeth, she tried to ignore his comment, still believing he was alive. “It would take more than that to kill him, pendejo, and you know it..”

All she received was a rattling grow in response as he evaporated into smoke and slipped away toward their target. Widow tutted, muttering something to herself before grappling away, her voice then picking up through Sombra’s earpiece.

“Forget him, focus on the task”.

The mission had gone without a hitch, perfectly executed, and they were ready for extraction. Widow and Reaper had already made their way out, leaving Sombra to find her own way out through the endless corridors. Teleporting out through the communications centre of the building, not without stealing what she could from the motherboards first, she appeared into the outside air with a digital flash.

Over the coms in her ear, she could hear updates being relayed from the dropship approaching, but a faint crackle made her pause. Standing still she waited, listening for the noise until it sounded louder, closer. The cold air shifted around her and she realised she wasn’t alone anymore.

Vanishing, she quickly spun around, reappearing now armed and inches away from the figure who had quietly approached her. The barrel of her machine pistol aimed at his throat, her eyes a deep glowing purple, Sombra glared until she recognised the intense eyes staring back at her.

Her expression softened, lowering her weapon with a soft gasp. “Mauga..?”

“That’s quite the greeting, Aitu'' he grinned, holding his large hands out in a casual manner, chuckling and she stood motionless. “Sorry to keep you waitin-..”

Cutting him off with a sharp slap to the face, his face instantly dropped from a wide grin to a tight pout. It hurt her hand more than it would ever hurt him, but it was instinct and the only response she could give him.

Slowly blinking, he glared down at her, her eyes burning white with matching intensity.

“Hey! Lighten up, what was that for-..”

“¡Maldita sea! Where have you been?!”

She was angry, but her voice betrayed her, less of a threat and more of a plea. It shocked him, seeing how distressed she seemed about seeing him. He simply stared at her as she began to rant at him, unintelligible cursing in Spanish before throwing her hands up at him, watching him expectantly.

“I’ve been waiting for you! You said you’d come back to me!” Breathing heavily, Sombra stared up at him, her rage beginning to wane, her expression now pained and concerned. “Where were you…”

Taken aback by her reaction, he looked away from her for a moment, the look in her eyes making his chest ache. Had she really been waiting on him?

“I just, y’know. Needed time to recuperate.… I didn’t think… me coming back would matter that much to you..”

“Idiota, of course you matter to me!”

Meeting her eyes again with a softer expression, Mauga saw for the first time just how much he meant to her. In that moment he actually felt wanted.

“I matter to you?”

His raised eyebrow and smirk threatening to take over his face made her look away, her scowl returning along with a flush across her face. Replacing her pistol back into it’s holster, she folded her arms, turning away from him to avoid seeing the smugness radiating from him. “Yeah! Y-yeah.. You do, okay?”

But she was wrong. A hand gently placed on her shoulder, turning her around to face him. Reluctantly, she looked up at him, feeling the heat rise in her skin when he tilted her chin up with a finger.

“You’re cute when you’re angry..” His voice was low and raspy, and it sent a chill up her spine. He’d never looked at her that way before and it made her heart race. “I’m sorry I left and didn’t say anything. But, I’m here now.”

Unable to reply, biting her lip hard, she wrapped her arms around him, burying her face into his torso. She couldn’t look at him anymore, knowing her face would be a dead give away to how he was affecting her. No one had ever made her feel like this. Her heart pounded heavily, feeling his large arms wrap around her protectively. His skin was warm, and the rhythm of his two hearts brought her comfort.

“I promise I won’t run off again.” he murmured against her hair, nuzzling against it, making her smile. “I’m scared that next time you might actually hunt me down.”

“There won’t be a next time, puta, I’ve already put a tracker on you..” she mumbled against his chest.

Chuckling, he shifted himself, feeling her hand pull away from his belt as she indeed left a small glowing purple tracker on him. He didn’t doubt she actually would, she always kept her word. But, part of it made him glad that someone actually wanted to have him around. That through all his elusiveness and chaotic nature, she still cared and wanted him.

“Good, because I’m not going anywhere without you now.”

There was no one he’d rather have tracking him and no one he’d rather come home to.
