 Genji ran, it's the only thing he could do. His metal legs creaked, he felt exhausted. The rain pouring from the skies didn't help. His cyborg body could keep out the rain, but running it for two days was starting to break it down, his exhausted pipes stopped working, it get's harder to breath and his face plate was flickering. But he kept running.

He clutched on to his brother, who could be dead. Three days full of bullets would kill anyone. Luckily he was able to stop from the chase and stop some of the bleeding. But it was no good, he needed a doctor and soon. Why did they have to choose a barren wasteland, where all there was were mountains, cactus, and annoying creatures.

He didn't know if he could keep going, the rain, the lightning, his exhaustion, it was all too much. Hanzo and Genji were going to die out in the wastelands of a desert, because of stupid choices. He thought it never rained in the desert, why did it have to rain?

Suddenly, he saw a house come out of the gray fog. And just his luck that a big red cross stood atop the house. He didn't hesitate to pick up his already beaten feet and gun it for the house. He pushed against the door, which swung open with a creak.

He almost cried when he saw an angel standing at a desk, her golden hair tousled and piercing blue eyes shining wide. Two others stood in the room, but Genji was done. He needed help, he needed his brother saved if he wasn't already dead. "Help." He gasped, before finally sinking to the floor and blacking out.

Jesse stared wide eyed at the cyborg laying in Angela's house. He and another man came in two days ago, and word spread quick. Hana and Fareeha stood next to him, gazing with wide eyes. "Hey Uncle Jess." Hana said after awhile, "Yeah?" He asked, looking down at the little girl, "Do you think he's dead?"

Jesse shrugged, "Probably." She smirked, but went quite. Angela came in later, she has been up the last two days getting the other man stable, "I don't know how a man with six bullets in his body could be able to live, but he did." She sighed, shaking her head.

"Do you think the other guy is Japanese too?" Fareeha asked after a moment. Hana shrugged, "I bet, they look a lot alike. Daddy Jack says their brothers." Jesse nodded, "My bet's on that too."

Angela chuckled, "Alright girls, why don't you run over to Gabriel's place alright?" The two nodded before leaving. Angela shook her head, "Well, me and Jack were able to get a new set of prosthetics on the shot man, but him." She looked at the sleeping cyborg, "I have no idea what to do."

"I can't even access anything, the body is so sealed, the only thing removable is his faceplate." Angela moved forward, taking it off. "Also, he has a lot of scars on his face, which suggested he's been in a worse position..." She shook her head.

"I hope one of em wake up soon." Jesse said, chewing a unlit cig. "Wanna hear their story." Angela nodded, "Everyone wants too." She walked out, Jesse trailing behind her. "Torb did a great job with the prosthetics, he made them glow blue to match his tattoo." Angela lead him into another room, where the guy with two missing legs slept.

He had a nice face that was for sure, his black hair was pulled back as well, Angela not wanting to mess with it. The six bullets were an interesting tale, and now Jesse believed it. He had a tattoo winding up his arm, Jesse admiring it for a second. Angela sighed, "I hope he's okay, but I won't know till he wakes up or the heart monitor flat lines..." Jesse scoffed, "Don't worry miss Angela, you got this." She smiled at him, "Yes, I hope so."

Genji awoke to a soft sunlight streaming through the window, his faceplate was removed, but the smell of flowers was drifting through the room. He reached over for his faceplate but suddenly jumped when a little girl he didn't see screamed.
