Chapter 37 Good Evening
Ecopoint - Infirmary - 11:40 PM
Pharah was laying in the small infirmary, her wounds had been treated and now the whole team was staring at her, Abel was still in the intensive care room. Zenyatta entered and gave everyone a curt nod, then spoke in a low tone "He will be back on his feet by tomorrow. I'm seriously disappointed in you Pharah, and you too Hanzo but your lesson will be tomorrow, for now, can i get some time with Pharah?" Hanzo simply left, while Brigitte and Mei left slowly, keeping their eyes on Pharah.
Once the door was closed did Zenyatta take his seat and looked at the Egyptian woman, speaking now in a more assertive voice "I remember when you used to be such a nice girl Pharah, you listened to others, took them into consideration, cared for them. But now.." He dropped Abel's torn up and bloodied clothes onto her lap and continued ".. You attack your own family and push your own comrades aside. What happened that made your soul so dark and foul.. That made you see everything like numbers and facts." Pharah stared down at the torn up coat, the blood contrasting with the white.
Pharah could tell Zenyatta was serious, so she sighed and spoke up "Ever had to lose someone you look up to and love?" Zenyatta watched as Pharah stared directly into Zenyatta's face and added "Well when that happens you learn that the world is cruel, you have to train yourself to be as hard as life... I do not expect you to understand Zenyatta, but those events tend to make someone cold.." Zenyatta knew what event she was talking about, but he still didn't quite understand why, why would she hate Abel so much.
Zenyatta had to clear this doubt before either of them ended up killing one another and asked "But why do you hate him so much..? What did he do to you?" Pharah was staring at the torn coat and raised it to him "Ana had been in Overwatch for a month before he arrived... Call it needy, call it selfish, i don't care. But shouldn't a mother tend to her children instead of some-" Zenyatta cut in and spoke in a low tone "There it is... Cold... Even though i can't really "feel" emotions... I can feel so much sadness in hearing you like this.."
Pharah stared at the coat, her mother only let her wear her beret, but Abel? She gave him one of her sets and didn't even bother to think of Pharah, making her grip the fabric violently. Zenyatta sighed and spoke in a low tone "Join me Tomorrow for meditation, Fareeha we have much to discuss and try to fix... Good night.." And with that, Zenyatta left, giving Pharah the opportunity to hug her pillow and throw the stupid coat to the floor. However after a brief moment did she start to sulk to herself, remembering she caused this.
Ecopoint - Intensive Care - Mid-Night
Abel was laying on a table slap-dab in the middle of the room, he was sleeping face up with the blanket only covering up yo his waist. He had gotten his gashes and cuts healed and had his abdomen, chest and right arm bandaged tightly, along with this came his tiered complexion, giving him a dead vibe. Something that made everyone worry, mainly the woman who got him in this situation in the first place, and said woman keeping an eye on him to make sure he doesn't actually give out and die.
Brigitte had felt horrible since Abel was brought in, she got him into a fight with someone who was out for his blood. All because they wanted Pharah put of their hair, and now, Abel was injured and far from the greatest medic in the planet. She shivered as the cold started to settle into the room, showing that the facility had gone into auxiliary power for the night. She rubbed her arms and blew into her hands as the temperature dropped significantly to -10° C. She swore under her breath as she zipped up her jacket.
She heard a small mutter then noticed Abel curling up with the sheets and shiver. Brigitte couldn't help but let a small smile as Abel reacted to the change in the room, then remembered why he was there in the first place. She spoke in a low tone to the sleeping Abel "I'm so sorry lad... I thought she would actually hold back.." She watched him toss and turn due to the bandaged wounds, making her stand and look down at him. She looked at her Overwatch medal and scolded herself "I'll be your shield... Look how good that's going.."
"I think your doing fine up to naaaaaaaaaoooow.." Abel said in a half yawn, making Brigitte jump abit and blush at the sight of Abel sitting up. He winced every now and then as he stretched, making her feel worse at the sight of the pain. She responded with "It's my fault you are on that bed lad, i tried to have you as the leader here and instead Pharah-" Abel cut in and explained "That fight was gonna happen one way or another... Don't beat yourself up for my fuck ups..." Brigitte simply watched as Abel hugged her, his warmth keeping her from shivering.
Brigitte sighed and nodded, then asked "You hungry?" Abel's gut answered that with a low growl. Abel said in a joking and extremely British accent "Simply Famished." This made the Sweden woman laugh a hardy laugh, the British accent was just too British and could be considered offensive. She took a small breath and stood up, then after composing herself walked to the door, just to stop when she saw Abel getting up too. He made himself some clothes out of substance, a long sleeve turtleneck and black pants with a pair of boots, leaving Brigitte slightly surprised.
Abel walked along side Brigitte as both walked silently through the vacant halls of Ecopoint, the silence being absolutely awkward. Brigitte peeked over at Abel and noticed him in deep thought, then hold his head as he felt a headache coming. Brigitte helped him the rest of the way into the mess where she set him down on one of the tables as she hurried to reheat some of the left overs from lunch. She came back with a warm plate of soup and found him humming away some tune while holding his head, she listened as Abel hummed and occasionally let afew lyrics slip.
She listened to it and over heard the words "Fix You" alot, but eventually he stopped and found her staring at him, making him blush. Brigitte sat the bowl next to him and asked "What song was that? Never heard it before.." Abel gave her a curt nod and took a small sip of the soup then answered "Fix You by Coldplay, it's... It's something.." Abel sighed in relief as he kept drinking his soup like Monday morning coffee. Brigitte simply watched him chug it down, making Brigitte get slightly curious as to how he knows about rock.
She sat beside him and asked "When did you start listening to it? To rock." Abel finished his soup and replied with "I dunno, infancy? Earliest i can recall was during my first year with talon, i was being transferred from base and i remember the driver had Guns & Roses full blast and i liked it." Brigitte raised a brow, but before she could ask Abel answered her unasked question "Band from the 1980's" Brigitte rolled her eyes playfully and ruffled his hair, making him tense up for a moment then melt into her gesture of kindness.
Brigitte watched him melt away and cooed in a teasing tone "Awww now i see why Moira calls you pup~ Who's a good boy~?" Abel tried to resist, but sadly his instinct made him melt away when she started scratching the back of his ears. Abel simply let himself fall onto her as she kept treating him like a spoiled dog, making her blush brightly but smile at his obvious positive response. She stopped and watched him yawn, his tiered expression coming into full view once more. She smiled down at him and kissed his forehead then watched him blush.
Watchpoint:Gibraltar - Moira's Room - 1 AM
Moira sat anxiously on her bed, her teeth biting her thumb's nail and making it sink into her flesh. She was holding her phone, waiting for her Abel to reply, she had been fidgety since he told her about the fight and even more after seeing the reactions and hearing the comments from the others. However she wasn't alone, beside her sat a rather uncomfortable Hana, she had been with her for roughly 5 hours now and Moira was starting to wonder why. Moira put her hand on the young girl's shoulder, getting her attention.
Moira stared the korean girl down, then stood up in front of her and asked "Not that i don't like the company dear, but why did you come in the first place?" Hana looked up at her with watering eyes, Moira knew she messed up and quickly wrapped her arms around her son's girlfriend. Hana held in her whimpers and answered Moira in a low tone "I guess I'm just lonely.." Moira examined the young korean girl and smiled, speaking to her now in a warm and smooth tome "Expected for the apple to be much like did tree, did we?"
Hana didn't know if Moira was teasing her or not, but answered honestly "I was expecting to talk about him, but your assumption isn't far from the truth.. I guess." Moira chuckled and picked the little korean girl up, her genetically enhanced strength and her 6"5' height made it easy to carry the short 5"5' korean girl. Hana blushed slightly as Moira carried her out of her room and down the hall way on her shoulder, and spoke teasingly "Well i will let you know we are very different, but i do know afew.. "Tricks" he enjoys."
Hana simply nodded at the tall Irish woman to avoid getting on her bad side. Moira simply chuckled at how adorable Hana looked when frightened, it reminded her of one of her pet rabbits, but that might just be because of Hana's logo. Moira carried her into the mess hall were they found the other members that either couldn't sleep or were on night duty. Moira placed Hana down on the first seat she approached then simply said "Stay." in a strong and firm tone, making Hana nod and stay in place, much to Moira's delight.
Moira went into the kitchen and came back with three mugs of black coffee, she had a small mischievous smirk. She set them down on the table in front of Hana, making the young korean girl ask "Ummmm why three?" Her answer responded her from behind, in her casual cold tone, almost as cold as her skin "Bonsoir... Petit lapin.." Hana turned quickly to find Amèlie sitting beside her, one of the mugs already in hand. Moira greeted her old friend in a warm tone "Glad you made it Amèlie, now that we are here we can finally discuss some important matters." Hana stared.
Hana watched as Amèlie simply nodded and took a sip of her coffee, making Moira Amèlie and continue "Now.. As far i know both of you are interested in my little boy..." Both Hana and Amèlie froze in place and nodded once, earning a light chuckle from Moira as she continued "Now now, none of you are in trouble... Yet. But i would like to remind both of you that until he chooses a woman, you both better learn to share... And don't play coy Amèlie." Hana looked at Amèlie and asked "What is she referring to..?" Amèlie gave an irritated smile and explained her deal with Abel when he would return.
Hana's eye twitched as Amèlie finished her explanation, bit before she could attack the french assassin Moira grabbed her by her hair and made the Korean girl look at her "I said share. Or would you rather be left as a steaming pile of meat...?" Hana stared wide eyed at Moira, her maniacal grin rivaled and dwarfed Jamison's and her sharp nails gave her overall being an animalistic vibe. Moira's grin grew as she asked "So will my cute bunny share?" Hana nodded, just to make Moira's grip on her short hair tighter.
Moira demamded in a firm voice now "I said, Will my bunny share?" Hana nodded and replied in a small voice "Y..yes, I.. I will share." Moira smiled and let go of her hair slowly and ran her hand onto Hana's cheek then leaned close to her ear, speaking in an almost sultry tone "Good... And don't worry... Mother will take care of her bunny..." Moira kissed Hana's little forehead then nibbled on her nose with a small carnal growl. Hana just blushed brightly as Moira leaned back and took another sip of her coffee, like nothing ever happened, only smirking perversely at Hana.
Talon German HQ - POW Camp - 6 AM
Reaper was standing along side an entire line of German and talon troops he had hand picked for his mission. The camp here was used to keep captured soldiers and those who wouldn't support the cause, this included men, women and children, all of which were being pulled out of their cells and dragged to the main courtyard. Gabriel had a camera team ready, and nodded to his troops, letting them lock and load their guns, this was a public execution.
