After Angela's huge innovation in healing nanotechnology, word spread fast. Overwatch tried to keep it down, under the wraps and secret, but it got out. So in a matter of days, she had offers and paparazzi at her every side. People offering her more money than she could ever imagine, and even more people wanting photos and comments. She wouldn't take any offers though, and she was under orders not to say anything to the press, not that she wanted too. She was always a loyal person, she thought, so why would she just abandon these people and go work in some fancy lab, when she could be here helping the people that need it. Of course. the new healing nanotechnology was only being tested on the mice, but mice are mammals, and more testing could lead to human experiments.
"When are you going to take the full initiative here?" Jack said angrily.
"Me, I don't need to take initiative, I thought you were the leader here," Gabe responded.
"Gabe you know the two of us both put you in charge," Ana told him.
"Then it ought to be time that you all act like it."
"Gabe." She pleaded.
"I understand I'm not the easiest to talk to or be with, or whatever you want to call it, but you put me in charge you answer to me, and so that means you need to respect me." He said with his arms crossed.
"Okay." They said together.
"And don't call me 'Gabe' my name is Gabriel, Ga-bri-el. And I want to be called Reyes. That is my name, treat me with respect and I will treat you the same. Now was that so bad? No, okay then, Morrison, Amari, get back to work." He said trotting off. The three had been on edge all week. You would think with Angela's breakthrough it would help, but it only fed the tension. They had a lot of work to do, and these Omniums weren't going to shut themselves down.
"Angela, this is O'Deorain, she will be your new lab partner," Jack said introducing this newcomer to her and then walked away. Out from the shadows of the hallway, a redheaded woman walked into her lab.
"Hello, my dear." She said, she had a bit of an Irish accent and judging by her last name, she guessed her new "lab partner" was of Irish origin.
"Hello, my names Angela Ziegler, but you can call me Angela." She said holding out her hand, and the woman smiled.
"Yeah, no. I'm Moira O'Deorain, and you can call me your senior lab adviser because that's what I am." I want to see all your information about your new nano-technology, how it works, where it will lead, what's needed to progress, everything."
"Um, okay." She said hesitantly, O'Deorain did not seem like a nice person, so she felt complying would just be best. She walked over and pulled out a few folders and documents and handed them to her. "This is everything you really need to know. You should be good from there." She said smiling.
"I should be good from there? What the hell does that mean?" She questioned her.
"What, I'm sorry did I say something wrong?" She asked honestly.
"I don't like your tone," O'Deorain said standing up.
"I didn't do anything!" Angela said backing away.
"Uh huh, sure you didn't."
"Okay..." Angela said quietly and backed out of the room as O'Deorain picked up the files. She walked down the hallway and ran into Jack. "Jack, who is this?"
"Who, O'Deorain?" He asked her continuing to walk back down the hallway, his voice was not lowered like Angela's.
"Yes, I really don't think she likes me."
