The Buster Sword-his own- Is lifted as Zack steps away and gives that order, half defensive and half to keep the blade precious to him off of the ground. He understands, knows what he has to do and Angeal is aware he was the cause of all of this in the first place. Once again, Zack is cleaning up the mess made by his bad decisions, a situation no mentor wishes to be in.

A soft noise of acknowledgement, and Angeal steps a little closer to where Martel is, the two wings on his back stretching before folding back in along his back. The healing had done much for him, though the man still needed time to recover... But he was a SOLDIER, and these were the people who helped him. He would fight as much as he could for them.
