They ran for a while. The escape tunnel was rather long and had a lot of twists and turns.
And when they eventually ran out of the tunnel. Noir did the same thing as before causing the exit to collapse.
"Well now what?" Lena asked.
"We need to leave this country as fast as possible." Noir replied.
"Agreed. But where should we go right now?" Angela asked.
"I know a few places we could hide until we can find a way out." She replied.
"Very well lead us then." Angela said.
Noir nodded and the three of them started running again.

"Why are there so many abandoned buildings in this country?" Lena asked when they arrived at an abandoned factory of some sort.
"Well there is quite easy explanation to that Lena." Angela replied.
"And what is that?"
"The first Omnic crisis." Noir said.
"Correct." Angela replied
"Ah I see." Lena said.
"Chérie do you think that you could do some scouting of the area?" Noir said and looked at Lena.
"Of course Luv. Leave it to me." She replied and blinked away.

"Can I ask you something now Dr Ziegler?" Noir said after a while.
"Of course you can, and you can just call me Angela." She replied.
"How long has Lena showed an interest in me? Or have you ever noticed that she had a interest before."
"Ja natürlich. It was hard not to notice it. But when it started. Well I think it was before I came back to Overwatch. So how exactly it started I do not know. But she would use Athena our AI to try to find you multiple times." Angela replied.
"That would explain why she have been able to find me so many times." Noir said.
"Ja. Well she have scared us multiple times when she have acted on her own. Like she did now a few days a go."
"She really is a foolish girl." Noir said with a smile.
"Indeed. She is among the most reckless people I know. But In a way that is what makes her into such a good person. She will stop at nothing to help people in need." Angela said.
"How can someone like me get a girl like her?" Noir said.
"You are extremely lucky to have her." Angela replied.
"Oui I am." Noir replied.

"Should she not have returned by now?" Noir said after a while.
"Yeah. Or at the very least radioed in." Angela replied.
"Could something have happened?" Noir Said with a worried voice.
"Let's go and find her then." Angela said and the two of them went to see where Lena was.

They eventually found a group of Talon soldiers that somehow managed to capture Lena.
"Is it the same team from the mansion?" Angela asked.
"I don't think so. There is no way they would have found us that quickly. No I think these are soldiers from the base that was evacuated a few days ago."
"So what's the plan Noir." She asked and looked at Noir.
"Well I could easily snipe all of them from here. But." Noir said
"But what?" Angela said.
"I do not know if there are any more out there. Because we need to do this quickly or they will be able to radio for help, and then we are in real trouble." She said.
"Well It is a risk we will have to take. Just take out everyone you can see, and I will go and get Lena out of there." Angela said.
"Understood. As quick as I start to open fire go and get her." She said as she started to aim up.
"Just don't hit me or Lena okay." Angela said.
"Don't worry I am called Widowmaker for a reason you know".
"Mhm" Angela replied not really sounding reassured.
And Noir fired of the first shot.

"Huh what?" One of them was able to say when the first soldiers fell dead to the ground.
"Sniper!" Another one said when two more falls dead.
And Angela took this chance to get Lena out there.
But even before She was able to return back to where they were hiding Noir had already cleared out all soldiers that they could see.
"You could really make Amari run for her money" Angela said when she returned with an unconscious Lena.
Angela could see Noir's worried face so she said calmly.
"Don't worry she is only unconscious."
Noir was just about to say something until she reacted to something moving.
She activated her Infra-Sight.
"Merde. I missed one." She said and lifted her rifle and shot him down.
The sound of the rifle woke Lena up.
"Huh wait what?" She said as she sat up.
"Are you alright Chérie" Noir asked.
"Um yeah I think so. But what happened?" Lena asked.
"You were ambushed by a group of Talon soldiers." Angela replied
"Oh yeah now I remember. They were from the battle a few days ago." Lena said.
"Yes I thought so. But I think that one of them managed to call for help. So we can not stay here for long." Noir said.
"So we have to continue to run today?" Lena said a little annoyed.
"Yes unfortunately." Noir said and helped Lena up on her feets.
Suddenly the sounds of jet engines could be heard again.

"They have founds us! Run!" Noir screamed
And the three of them started running just before as a missile hit the old factory building.
And in the chaos that started Mercy got separated from the other two.
"Mercy!" Lena screamed.
"We will find her again after this. Just run for now." Noir said and took Lena's hand.
They managed to get into the big forest next to the factory where they at least could bread for a second.
"Well traveling with you sure is not dull." Lena said.
"It would seem so. Tho sometimes I wish it was not Chérie." Noir replied.
"What does Chérie mean? This not the first time you have called me that." Lena asked.
"Chérie. It means Sweetheart." Noir replied.
Lena face turned but before she was able to say something in return, her radio crackled to life and it was Angela that said.
"Are you two okay?"
"We're fine luv. But where are you?" Lena replied.
"I am somewhere in the forest, and I think i'm safe for the moment. " She replied.
"That's good to hear." Lena said.
"But be warned they seem to be more interested in the two of you than me."
"Not surprise there I'm afraid."Noir said.

"There you are." Said a cold voice from behind.
And the two of them turned around.
"Reaper" Noir said with a serious tone.
"To think that you would actually betray Talon and ally yourself with these weak ones." He said first looking at Noir then at Lena.
"Who are ye calling weak you have run from most battles we have had." Lena said and pulled her guns on him.
Reaper just gave an annoyed grunt and pulled out his shotguns and started firing.
"Try to hold him off until I can get to some higher ground!" Noir said while evading Reapers attacks.
"Sure thing luv!" Lena replied and started to blink around to distract Reaper.
"You are so pathetic." He said fired against her.
"was that an attempt to an insult?" She replied.
"You really think that you can defeat us." He said.
"Us?"
And just then the rest of the Talon soldiers arrived and opened fire on Lena.
"Hey no fair!" She said and blinked to avoid their bullets.
She managed to take out some of the soldiers. But in the end it was to much for her, and she got cornered.
"This is the end for you little girl." He said and was prepared to finish her.
But just then Noir had found a good spot and fired towards Reaper.
But the shot just knocked off his mask.
"Gabriel Reyes? You're alive?" Lena said when she saw his face.
He did not reply and just knocked her in the face which knocked her out, before putting his mask back on.
But just as he had put it on Noir swung in kicking him in the head.
This did little to no harm however.
"You don't dare hurt her!" She screamed when she landed and checked on Lena if she was okay. Only her goggles had cracked a bit from Reapers hit.
"You seem to have grown attached to her." He said with a small evil laugh.
But Noir was now furious And started beating on him.
He was m´not prepared for her to start fight in hand to hand, and this gave Noir the upper hand at first.
But became more and more even.
"This is not like you." He said when he was able to fight back.
"You're Not as cold anymore. It is almost like you have emotions." He laughed.
Noir just jumped back and started to fire at him instead.
He laughed again.
But also the other soldiers started to fire as well.
"Merde!" She said and started to take out the soldiers first.
But she needed to finish this quickly. She do not have a lot of ammo left.
And of course Reaper noticed this as well, and also opened fire.

I need to get out of here.
If I get back on the high ground I maybe able to finish this.
But if he sees where I fire from he will just evade it.
The only reason I hit him before was that he were focused on Lena.
But I have to get Lena out of here as well.
This is not good if only we had not gotten separated from Angela.
She thought to herself.
Just then her ammo ran out and when she tried to get into cover a bullet hit her in the leg.
"This is the end." Reaper said and Noir closed her eyes and prepared for the end.
I'm sorry Lena.

But just as she heard the shot she felt someone picking her up.
It was Lena. She had came to and picked her up and got her out there just in time.
She was blinking away from the battlefield as fast as she could.
"Lena!"
"I won't let you die like that!" She said continuing to blink as long as she could.

When she finally stopped. She was completely exhausted.
They were still in the forest but far away from where they had been.
She put Noir down and Noir supported herself towards a tree.
"Are you alright Chérie?" She asked.
"Yeah I am luv. Just need to rest for a bit." She replied and sat down and lend back on a tree.
But Noir noticed something wrong with Lena's harness.
"What's wrong luv?" Lena said and looked up at her.
"Your Chronal Accelerator. It's light are flickering." Noir said and pointed at it.
"Don't worry luv. It's only need to recharge. No problem." She replied and pulled her goggles down so they hanged around her neck.
"If you say so." Noir said still with a worried look.
"Hey can you take the first watch. while I sleep for a bit?" Lena asked.
"I have no ammo left." Noir replied.
"Here take these" She said and tossed Noir her pistols.
"Thanks." Noir replied.
"And also take this." She said and also tossed her radio.
"You have to answer if Angela calls" She continued.
"Very well then." Noir replied.
"Hey! Come here." Lena said and stood up and gave Noir a big and long hug and kiss.
"We'll get thru this okay luv." She said with a low voice.
Noir just nodded.
Lena smiled and sat back down and fell asleep.

Noir went and checked on the wound on her leg.
The bullet had gone right thru the leg and the wound had already started to heal.
Her accelerated healing was the only thing she really could appreciate with her body.
But she had a hard time of getting grip of her emotions right now.
The battle had not been easy on her.
The rage that she felt when Reaper hit Lena, and the worry she feels for her now.
These last few day have really been exhausting for her.
All of these emotions erupting in her.
Some of them she had almost come to terms with.
But she got interrupted in her thoughts by the radio.
"Tracer are you there?" Angela asked.
"It's me Noir." Noir replied.
"Where is Lena?" Angela asked.
"She is sleeping. She saved me from Reaper And blinked away as long as she could."
"You fought Reaper? Why were he there? Are any of you hurt?" She asked.
"I do not know why he was there but he was. But I got hit in the leg but it's no problem with my healing and I'm out of ammo. But Lena." Noir said and looked at Lena.
"What is it with her is she hurt?" Angela ask with a worried voice.
"No she is not hurt. But I think there is something wrong with her Chronal Accelerator. It's light is flickering in a way I have not seen before." She replied.
"That doesn't sound good." Angela replied.
"No doesn't. She says it's fine but I don't know. Where are you by the way?" She said.
"I've have gotten out of the forest and got in touch with Overwatch, and they are sending a reinforcements. To deal with Talon. I will talk to Winston about the Accelerator. You should try and get some rest to." She replied.
"I will try." Noir said.
"We'll get in touch later. Things will work out you'll see. Mercy out." Angela said and hug up.

"We'll get thru this. I promise Chérie."
