The Burning saint: Ascended

What's left of them.

After the saint crashed a devil's face into the ground next to a vehicle parking lot, Jon flew his drone next to a tunnel entrance and told the saint, "You need to get inside here." After opening the door and walking inside, the saint walked down the stairs leading underground. At the bottom she walked onto to some train tracks. Jon explained, "This is one of our many subway tunnels, we have a lot of them under this colony, and from several hidden locations we can access bunkers designed to hide and protect personnel in case of an attack. The attack we were expecting was not a demon invasion, but they seem to be working effectively so far."

Having walked through the dark tunnels for a while, in complete silence, the saint started displaying anxious behaviour. Walking with her arms close to her sides, her wings pressed close against her back, her eyes were wide open and displayed fast movement as if she was looking at every corner expecting something to attack her. Even though her body and face was covered in armor, Jon noticed the way she was acting, and said, "It seems you are uncomfortable being underground. That is understandable, claustrophobia is common among humans, I imagine it's especially bad for you, since you can't fly effectively while underground." The saint grabbed the drone and held it as if giving it a hug. In response Jon turned off its thrusters and said, "You can hold the drone if it makes you feel better, but please point the camera forward, so that I can direct you." After turning the drone in a way that it can see forward, Jon told her, "Alright, keep going forward and turn left when possible."

After some more silent walking, Jon said, "Alright, stop here and wait a moment." The saint was startled by the floor moving downward, the section of the tunnel was an elevator that went further underground. As she went deeper, the elevator was hidden by the hole left behind her being closed. After a minute of going down, the elevator stopped. A large blast door opened in front of her. lights from behind it covered her face, and she dropped the drone she was holding from shock of what she saw behind that door. It was humans, living humans, more than she had ever seen before. They were all holding guns in their hands, pointing them directly at her, clearly guarding the entrance to the shelter. From a speaker, Jon addressed her, "This team will lead you to me." The saint completely ignored what Jon said, her armor disappeared from her body as she practically tackled the man closest to her, and held onto him with a smile on her face crying tears of pure joy. The other soldiers stood confused and watched, with one asking, "Do you guys feel that?" Another replied, "Yeah, when the door opened and she came through, the room got warmer. Not just the room, I feel like..." The soldier being hugged mumbled, "This... Feels really nice." One of the other soldiers awkwardly asked, "Uhh... Can I get a hug too?"

Their weird behavior was interrupted by Jon announcing from a speaker, "Quit fooling around! We need to get the situation under control, there are still demons destroying the colony and they're looking for us. Too much time has already been wasted, so escort the saint to my office." Because the saint completely ignored Jon, the soldier she was holding decided he's had enough and said, "Alright, as enjoyable as this is, please get off of me." Finally, the saint let go of the man. Then another soldier instructed her, "Right this way, please follow me." They walked through multiple hallways on their way, past many of rooms with windows showing what's inside, the interior was different in each room, but the only thing the saint cared about was that there were people inside those rooms. They all turned to look at her when she walked by them and the angel briefly stood still looking back at them. It was tempting for her to just run inside each separate room and embrace as many of them in her arms as possible, and the soldiers escorting her knew that, which is why they constantly had to remind her to keep moving.

When they arrived at the door with a sign next to it saying, "Overseer's office." One of the soldiers tried to open the door, but it was not opening. The soldier called Jon and asked, "Sir, why is the the door to your office locked?" Through the intercom next to the door, Jon addressed the saint, "I am sorry for this. While I would love to meet you in person, I noticed that your presence affects human minds, while the effect seems to be pleasant, I would like to avoid having my judgement affected by anything." The saint appeared concerned by what Jon had said, she looked at her hands, and then looked at the soldiers around her. Jon then told her, "Please, hand the flash drive to one of the soldiers and have him bring it in." The saint did not object, she placed her arm behind her back and the flashdrive materialized in her hand, and after giving it to one of the soldiers, she watched him walk inside the room.
