The next day, the group of 6 were walking to the attack point.
Jerry was sitting on top of D'va's mech.
"So I'm not heavy at all?" Jerry asked. "Even with the armor?"
"Nope!" D'va said. "I could do this all day.
Liu and Mercy walked next to each other.
"Now Mr. Dawson, attacking is a lot harder than defending." Mercy said. "So make sure to get everyone's back out there, even me."
"Of course I will." Liu said. "Can't have you dying on me now."
Mercy blushed, smiling a bit. Liu realized what he had said.
"F-For the team of course." Liu said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Dawson; I'll be there to save you." Mercy said.
Liu smiled. "Is that a challenge?" He asked.
"Maybe..." Mercy smiled. "If I save you from death..." She paused for a moment. "...you have to take me out for dinner."
Liu chuckled. "Yeah, sure..."
The group soon got to the entrance, the doors wouldn't open until everyone was ready. Liu stood behind Reinhardt, waiting... Until:
"Attackers Incoming in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.."
The doors opened. Everyone ran toward the 1st capture point, the enemy team was there. Liu already got frighten, but he pushed on. Jerry jumped off of D'va's mech and placed down a barrier, blocking and on coming rocket.
Soldier: 76 yelled out. "Team, to our rights!"
Everyone moved towards the right.
"Mercy, D'va, with me, we'll charge ahead, Liu, Jerry, get on a roof and flank them!" Soldier said.
The 4 run straight forward, while Liu and Jerry go around and up some stairs to get on the roof of a building behind the enemies. Jerry placed down is already damaged barrier, and started to shoot. Liu kept them hidden in the exo-smoke (The healing smoke grenade). Once it whered off, Liu could see the rest of the team pushing onto the point, killing most of them.
"Come on, Liu!" Jerry said, already running back down the stairs.
Liu turned to Jerry, then back at the barrier. I was gone. Liu staying still, staring at something red on his chest, he looked up.
...
"JERR-"
Boom...
Everyone looked up, Jerry came back, seeing Liu, on the ground, bleeding from a gun shot right through the heart.
"Liu!" Jerry screamed.
He turned to see a Widowmaker hiding on a roof. Jerry started shooting his gun at the roof, getting her to flee.
"We need Mercy up here, now!" Jerry yelled.
Mercy did hesitate to fly up there and kneel down next to Liu. She stood up, positioning her healing staff in Liu's position, and attempting to heal him. She then noticed the shot through the heart.
"Oh nonononono No!" Mercy shouted. "I can't revive him yet, my ultimate is only at 81% he wont be relivable by then!"
"Dr. Ziegler" Jerry said.
Mercy turned, looking at Jerry. Jerry then pulled out a small handgun and shot is foot, falling to the ground.
"H-Heal me, and you'll charge faster."
Mercy didn't think twice, she healed Jerry, 94%
"One more, Jerry!" Mercy shouted.
Jerry did it again, bringing the bar to 100% Mercy then kneed down to Liu, whispering.
"Please come back Liu, I cannot let this happen again. Please." Mercy whispered.
"Hero's Never Die..." Mercy said.
...
"No..." Mercy said.
Jerry was shocked, the whole team was.
Then, there was a jolt.
"Ngh... Oh god, what happened?" Liu said.
Mercy dropped her staff and hugged Liu.
Liu's face lit up.
"Seriously... What happened?" Liu asked.
Mercy let go and put her hands on Liu's shoulders.
"What happened is..." She paused. "...you owe me dinner." She smiled.
After the mission was done, everyone went home for the night, Liu and Jerry had to say in a hotel.
Liu knocked on Mercy's door, waiting patiently for her. Then she came out, wearing a nice, white shirt and black skirt.
Liu looked at her for a moment.
"My eyes are up here, Mr. Dawson." Mercy smiled.
Liu blushed. "I'm sorry, Angela." he said. "You look very nice."
"Same goes for you, Mr. Dawson." Mercy said.
"Please, call me Liu." he says.
Mercy nods her head, smiling.
"How long is the walk?" Mercy asked.
"Oh, um... I actually got us a cab, should be her any minute now." Liu said.
Mercy was surprised. "Oh, Liu; you didn't have to do that." she says.
Liu shakes his head. "It's not that big of a deal, Angela." Liu smiled.
The cab soon arrived and took them the the restaurant. When Mercy saw it, she was amazing.
"Liu, are we really eating her?" Mercy asks.
Liu nods his head.
"Liu, you didn't need to spoil me with much." Mercy says. "A small coffee shop would have been enough for me."
Liu looks at Mercy. "Angela, you saved my life today, its the least I could do."
Mercy was speechless. "You really are a charmer, Liu, thank you."
They entered.
Around an hour in, Mercy asked Liu something.
"Liu, is there another reason you took me out on this date?" Mercy asked.
Liu stayed silent until.
"I told you yesterday." Liu said. "I think you're a beautiful woman, and I wanted to get to know you."
Mercy didn't say anything, just smiled at Liu, looking back down at her food, continuing to eat.
Another 30 minutes later, Liu payed the check and came outside where Mercy was waiting.
When Liu walked up the Mercy, she grabbed his hand, blushing. Liu blushed as well.
"May we walk home together, Liu?" Mercy asked.
Liu nodded, smiling.
Once Liu and Mercy walked back to her house, the stood, looking at each other.
Mercy blushed. "Would you like to come in, Liu?" she asked.
Liu's heart raced, he stood silent, blushing.
He then calmed down, fading his blush away.
"Angela, I think I'd like to do it some other time." Liu says.
Mercy didn't seem angry. "It's alright, Liu; I understand."
She looked down.
"I really hope this date showed you I care about you, Liu." Mercy says. "I hope you feel the same."
Liu took up all of his bravery and walked up to Mercy, leaning over and kissing her on the cheek.
Mercy blushed. "Liu..?"
"That's how I show I care..." Liu whispered.
Mercy smiled faintly, looking at Liu.
"Goodnight, Angela..." Liu said,
"Goodnight, Liu..." Mercy said.
Liu turned and walked towards his hotel, and Mercy went inside, looking out the window.
"Goodnight, Liu..." She repeated.
