Rave- Dark or sum along those lines

Moira and Gabe together are absolutely unstoppable.

They cut through enemy mercenaries like they were candy bars, snapping them like a Twix.

"Left or right?" Moira would joke, holding a Twix out to Gabe who would roll his eyes under his mask but steal the left twix from Moira.

Moira would eat the right and wait for the other Mercs to show up.

"Now you remember when we were doing assassin stuff for Talon?" Moira asked as she took a bite of her Twix to listen to Gabe.

"Yes. I remember ripping them apart. Why? You wanna do it again? I don't think the doctor would be happy with that." Reaper cackles, tossing his now empty wrapper on the floor somewhere.

"I don't think the commander would be either." Moira shot back, raising her hand to play with a healing orb.

"So why bring it up?" Gabe asks, annoyed.

"Well let's do one more for old times sake, but this time, let's wait till they get the jump on Overwatch. God knows Overwatch doesn't know what the plan is." Moira pulls her hand through a hole in the wall to pull out a piece of brick, throwing it Reaper who grabs it with one hand and crushes it, grumbling happily as they wait for Overwatch to get jumped.

Angela was not having a good day. Well at first she was, managing to make Moira flustered, making sure their daughter was okay, finally out on the field again. It was amazing, and now she is absolutely livid.

Angela ducks out the way as a Merc fired a sleeper dart at her, which is countered by Ana who shot one back and got the guy to go down. Angela silently thanks Ana and turns away to watch more mercs drop out some roofs.

"Team there is too many of them.. get ready to fall back- ow! What the!" Reaper jumps from the top of the roof, fading into the room and shooting out random shots, hitting a few while Mercy gets her weapon out again, shooting with her pistol. But as that happens, a merc shoots in her direction again and before Angela can duck, an arm is wrapped around her and she is shoved to the side.

Moira is there, throwing hand to hand combat while Reaper covers from behind. Moira looks back at Angela, then at the mercs, smirking while she grabs the neck of one of them, twisting it to snap their neck.

The body falls and Moira slides over to Angela.

"You okay?" Moira asks, trying to get Angela's attention as Angela looks at the body slumped on the floor. Angela pushes back, horror stuck to her face.

"Moira seriously. What the actual- you know what doesn't even matter. What are you two doing here?" Angela sits up quickly and creates space between her and the woman she apparently has a child with.

"We knew you guys were going to be attacked. We swung on by to take care of it for you. No need to thank us, me and Gabe are just doing what seems right." Reaper does what sounds like a stuffed laugh, as he wasn't trying to chuckle, while Moira does another stuck up smirk, one that makes Angela boil in anger. She turns to look towards her team of overwatch.

"Well thank you but we can handle this. Now if you please. Also stop killing people. We have a kid, she wouldn't want to see that." Angela Ziegler, world renowned healer, is scary when she's angry, so as Reaper and Moira look at each other about to split, Angela and Jack both shoot them looks that say 'do that shit again. We dare you.'

Reaper and Moira fade quickly as to not anger the respective exes.

———

"Alright well, mission completed. Akande will be happy to hear it." Reaper and Moira fade as high as they can before a ship picks them up.

"I guess it was, we need to discuss something." Reaper says as he fades into the ship with Moira right behind him, taking off her extra gear and putting it to the side, listening as she nods for Gabe to continue.

"Well, I've been thinking about something.. Me and Jack didn't end well on good terms, neither did you and Angela. But you and Angela just found out you have a kid from a near future reality. So.. I'm thinking I should have Jack give me another chance.. as much as I will hate it, I still care."

"Ok some of that didn't make alot of sense but I think I understand you." Moira sits down to think quickly but ultimately decides a perfect response.

"I say take the chance, you deserve it as much, and we aren't getting any younger Gabe." Moira chuckles, patting Reaper on the back.

"If only it was that easy." Moira and Gabe think at the same time.
