Moonlit Kiss

"We need help over here!" cried out a soldier. He and his team were surrounded by omnics. Strike Commander Morrison, Gabriel Reyes, Lena Oxton, Winston, and Angela Ziegler made their way to the group. Winston threw a barrier over to the group, hoping it would protect them long enough for Jack and Gabriel to clear the omnics which they did.

The two went head first, back to back, blowing the omnics to smithereens. Angela flew to the group taking her staff and healing those who were wounded. Once Jack and Gabriel were done clearing out the omnics, with some help from Lena, Jack came over to the soldier who cried for help.

"Name?" he asked simply. The soldier saluted in respect.

"Corporal Vale, sir," the Corporal reported. Jack nodded.

"What happened here?" Jack studied the wounded soldiers who Angela was healing. Their wounds were bad, but her staff would fix them.

"We were ambushed, sir. My team here got wounded pretty bad." The corporal grunted as a flash of pain washed over him. Angela's head jerked up. The corporal waved his hand, motioning to her that he'd be alright. Angela, a little suspicious, continued her work on his men, before finally getting to him. "I'm fine, doctor." Angela frowned.

"You should be at peak performance. Where is it?" she asked, meaning his wound. Vale grunted as he lifted his shirt up to reveal a deep slice on the right side of stomach. "Oh dear. That is not good." Angela motioned for the corporal to sit down as she pointed her staff at the wound. Turning the healing beam on, the staff began the sew the flesh back together. Vale hissed at the odd feeling. Once the wound was healed, Angela took out some cleansing rags and began to dab at the area, soaking up the blood.

"Thank you," Vale thanked after the angel had finished her work. Angela smiled and nodded. She stood up and looked around the patched up soldiers. Then she turned to Jack and Gabriel who were standing next to each other, watching her work. There was admiration in Gabriel's eyes which made Angela's spirit soar.

"Jack, it's going to be difficult to get these soldiers to safety with just us. We're going to have to wait for assistance," Angela reported. Jack nodded.

"Understood." He turned to Gabe. "Gabe, you and Tracer go scout ahead to see if there are any more omnics hiding. Winston, Angela, and I will stay here with the soldiers." Gabe nodded and he and Lena prepared to scout ahead. Before he left, Gabriel took Angela to the side.

"You did good work," he complimented with a smile. Angela giggled a small bit.

"Only doing my job," she replied.

"Hey! Let's get a move on, yeah?" Lena called from behind.

"Speaking of job, you have one to do," Angela added in light to Lena's response. Gabriel chuckled and rolled his eyes.

"Stay safe." A flash of worry crossed his eyes. Angela pat his chest.

"Jack and Winston are here. I'll be fine." The angel smiled to reassure the tall man who sighed with relief and went out. Angela walked back over to Winston and Jack who sat with the soldiers. "Everyone doing ok?" she asked all of them. There were some grunts from the wounded men and a shrug from Jack. Winston smiled.

"I'm doing fine! We managed to get a lot done!" Winston cheered. The genetically enhanced ape was always finding a way to seem positive. It was good for morale. Angela chuckled at Winston's cheerfulness, before sitting down, setting her staff in front of her.
