The story That didn’t make it to Ao3...

The story never got into Ao3 because my FREAKIN PENDRIVE AND ACCOUNT DECIDED TO DIE, DIE, DIE ON ME...The reason I’m using bold letters is because I’m freakin pissed at the situation right now. But I managed to save this little gem. The story featured the kids a little older than the previous one...so yeah....Years skipping storiessss....anyway let’s continue...

I don’t Have a title...

Jesse is an overprotective father, so when James, Akira and Caden want to play outside of the facility, he’s cautious. He’s assigned for a mission in an hour and is partnered with Hanzo, so he leaves them in the care of Roadhog and Junkrat and Satya. He doesn’t know whether he will regret this or not yet.

.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,

 James, Akira and Caden wanted to play in the park a few blocks away from the base in a quite suburbia in L.A. They wanted to see more of the neighbourhood before they have to go back to Gibraltar. The six year olds search for their parents to have permission. They didn’t realize it’s a bit hard.

“Dad, come on, pleeeeeaaasseee?” Akira plead, her puppy eyes intensifies and her ears are folded on her head.

Jesse takes in a deep breath and smirks when the boys followed their sister’s pout and puppy eyes. “This ain’t like Gibraltar you know. And your momma and I won’t be there to watch over y’all. We have somethin’ to finish here first.” He tells them, his voice kind but with a pinch of worry. “Besides y’all could…”

“We could get hurt or found out or even get lost.” They voice out, Jesse stares at them in silent amusement and right then Hanzo walks in to see the little commotion.

“And besides, I want y’all ta stay close to us…”

“At all times. We know.” Caden.

“And if we see any strangers, don’t talk to them.” James.

“Come straight home.” Akira.

Hanzo chuckles as Jesse groans playfully.

“Can we go now? Pleeeaasee?” Their smiles big and eyes round. Clasping their hands together to make it look like they really meant it.

“Hmmm, very funny.” He chuckles out.

“Mind your father, children.” Hanzo pinches in. His stare a little stern, but voice light and soothing.

They giggle a bit and sighs a little, “Yes, mom.” They turn their stare to him.

“And besides, who’s gonna watch over y’all if when we’re not around. Hana is watching over yer sister and Lucio is with little Ame, who’s going to look after you?” He challenges, one brow raised high.

The three look over at each other and when they couldn’t name someone, their shoulders deflate, and little frowns are showing, Hanzo intervenes.

“Maybe Satya can watch over them. I mean, she is very fond of little Caden here and she has nothing to do this fine afternoon.” He smiles when the children run towards him and hugs his legs and middle. “Mom! You’re the best!!!”

Jesse’s smug grin drops when Hanzo voices out his idea. “Han, are ya sure? I mean…”

“Satya is more than capable of taking care of three children. Besides, she’s been wanting to spend some time with them all week. I say we give her the chance.” He cuts Jesse off and raises a challenging brow.

Jesse’s argument dies in his mouth and he sighs in defeat. “Alright, alright. But make sure you got yer communicators on.” The children turn and run to hug him as well and Jesse bends down to pick all three up. He nuzzles their cheeks and they nuzzle back. Akira and Caden purr loudly and Jesse’s chest gives a deep rumble. He puts them down on the floor and they run in search for Satya.

“And don’t run far from her! Keep yourselves in her sights at all times!” He yells out before the kids turn a corner.

Hanzo chuckles lightly. “If I remember correctly, they acted like a certain cowboy when he was just a child.” He muses, his eyes gives a tender look to his mate.

“Huh, What…?” He says distractedly, eyes to where the children disappeared.

“Who?” He looks to Hanzo and the neko chuckles lightly, tucking his head under Jesse’s chin.

“They’re just like you were when you were young in the stories that you’ve told me.”

“Exactly. If any stories from Gabe back when I was a little punk were any indication, imagine the troubles they could get themselves in.” He furrows his brows in worry and Hanzo playfully punches him in the chest. He then kisses Jesse on the cheek and nose.

“They’ll be fine, anata.” He turns and walks away, but not before giving Jesse a smile. He sighs again when Hanzo left the room and he makes his way to his room to pack some clothes and clean Peacekeeper. He passes the recreational room and hears Roadhog and Junkrat complaining over a show on t.v.

And by then an idea pops into his head. He walks up to them and tips his hat in greeting. They greeted him with a smile from Junkrat and a nod from Roadhog.

“Hey, fellers, I’ve got ta ask some help from both of you. Think you can help out a guy?” He asks casually. Sitting next to them on the couch.

“Sure, cowboy. What cha need’in our ‘elp for?” Junkrat asks, having just showered the smell of soot and gunpowder is barely on him.

“I need y’all ta keep an eye on my lil’ ones. They’ll be goin’ ta the park a few blocks from ‘ere. I just need ya ta watch from a distance. Think ya can do tha’ for me?” He asks them casually, but from the inside he’s praying that the two will agree.

“Wot’s in it fer us then?” Jamie smiles wickedly and Mako slaps the back of his head.

“What the fuck was tha’ for?!?!” He hisses at Mako, rubbing behind his head.

“We’ll do it, McCree. No charge needed.” The large man grunts. Junkrat grumbles angrily under his breath and nods along with Mako.

“Besides, Satya is takin’ care of the little tykes. So…” He’s cut off when Junkrat jumps up and whoops.

“We’ll take it!! Come on, Roadie! Not a day ta waste ‘ere!!” He runs out the door and Mako follows leisurely.

Jesse watches them walk away, a bemused look on his face. He breathes a sigh of relief and his shoulders felt a little lighter then. He gets up and continues his way to his room.

 ,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,

 “Thanks for watching after us, Aunt Satya.” Akira says from her side, holding onto her hand as they make their way to the park. Caden on her other side, also holding onto her hand with James leading the way. Satya wears the most casual clothing she could find, and that’s a white button up and a pair of dark blue jeans. Her hair is tied back in a loose bun. The day is bright and she keeps a small handgun in the back of her pocket and a taser.

“Aunt Satya?”

“Yes, Akira?”

“Are you uncle Rat’s mate?”

Satya momentarily chokes on her tongue and she flails a bit. The red blush on her face intensifying.

“No! No, dear. W-why would you say that?” She inquires, face still red and heart beating fast.

“Naaah, I think it’s because Akira think you guys are cute.” Caden pipes out. His smile warm and look knowing. For a child, he seems wiser, considering his age.

“I need to stop you from hanging around Zenyatta all the time.” She huffs out.

“Noooooooo! Uncle Zen makes awesome juggling shows!” Caden gasps out, feigning fear.

“He uses his tele-ke-nictic powers. So they don’t count!” Akira harrumphs.

“Says you. I still think it’s a cool trick.” Caden sticks his tongue out at her.

The kids found her in the kitchen preparing tea, and when they asked whether she could take them to the park, she agreed instantly. But she did ask whether their parents knew.

Now, as they make their way to the park, they only stopped when they passed an ice-cream shop. She promises them that they’ll get ice-cream after they went to the park.

“I want butter fudge almond.” Caden suggests early on.

“I want strawberry.” Akira. Her eyes sparkling at the mention of the particular treat.

“Heh, I want rocky road. A man’s ice cream.” He puffs his chest proudly.

“Dad likes vanilla and strawberry.” Caden points out.

“Yeah, what makes you think that strawberries are for girls only?” Akira argued.

“Well, because you like the color pink! And strawberry ice cream is pink, so.”

“HEY! Don’t think that just because the color looks girly, doesn’t mean a man can’t have or like that kind of colors too!” She place one hand on her hip, looking much like Hanzo when he wants them to go to bed early.

“Okay! Okay. That’s enough. How did we even got into this argument?” Caden asks incredulously.

“She started it!” James point to her.

“Well, we women might started it, but we can also finish it!” She sassed. Chin sticking up high. Eyes challenging.  

Satya silently cackles over their little banter. Such a little spitfire you are, Akira. Your mother would be proud. Satya thought happily.

When they arrived, there was only a couple of kids playing around and they looked to her for permission. She nods and they run off to the playground. She walks to the lone bench and sits down, taking out her book from her bag that’s slung over her shoulder and keeps half of her focus on the kids.

It was hard at first when bringing them to a park. Then, they didn’t know which to be yet, people or pup or kitten. They would switch from time to time, which is adorable. Ame was a little late when he first transformed. And when he did, he was the smallest, white wolf they have ever seen. Jesse was a little worried at that time because of how weak Ame was. He would barely eat at times and when he does, he ate so little. But after a while, he grew a bit stronger. Jesse was a bit protective of him when he couldn’t handle being around the team, and when he cried, Jesse was there in an instant.

When one of them was sick, it was a conundrum. They didn’t know whether they need human treatment or a veterinary field of knowledge. They were a bit scared, but Angela gives and tried her best, and they always pull through.

Akira plays near the edge of the park, looking for hidden treasures to bring home to. Sometimes she would find an old silver watch, which is rarely, a few pretty buttons and lost earrings. They dubbed her a little treasure hunter when she would find any lost things back in base. Sometimes things that they lost for a while and forgotten.

“Hey, you don’t look like you belong here.” She mumbles to herself and sees one of those shiny pins that was on those round green thing. A…grenade, she heard the name of it when Uncle Rat threw the empty ones around. She grabs it and a rustle of leaves makes her look up to see a giant pig mask and someone with crazy looking eyes staring at her.

She lets out a scream and falls onto her bum. The two screamed in surprise when she screamed and they emerge from the bushes to apologize to the little girl.

Satya runs to them when she heard the screaming, but her worry was unfounded when she only saw Roadhog and Junkrat. She throws a mild death glare at them and came closer.

“Jamie, Mako, what are you doing here?” She asks, hands on her hips as she stares them down. They stand up a little straighter and Jamie laughs sheepishly, “Well, McCree sent us ovah ‘cause he wan’ed them lil’ ankle biters ta be in bett’ah protection.” He chuckles and stuffs his hand in his pocket.

Satya only hums, a bit peeved that McCree thought she needed help, but she couldn’t blame him. He’s just protective of his young ones. And it’s also the third time that they’ve been farther apart more than in a ten foot radius. She walks back to her bench as the kids run up to their uncles and proceeds to climb over them. Thank goodness that they’re wearing clothes to at least look decent. And Jamie seems to have taken the liberty to shower, because his face and hair are clear from soot and grease and it appears that he combs his hair a bit too. She blushes when he caught her staring, sending her a wink and she harrumphs and hides her face behind her book. Hiding her blush and the small smile when she hears the children laugh along with him.

They spend an hour chasing around the children in a game of tag and Caden seems to have fallen asleep on Roadhog, probably tired himself out. Akira was just showing Junkrat how to make flower crowns and he ended up making a nest for birds. She didn’t know where she went wrong.

Little James was swinging on the swings when he heard a whimper from the edge of the park. He turns around and sees a leg sticking out from some bushes. He runs to the, what seems to be an injured paw, and proceeds to call it out.

“Hey, buddy. Come on out. I’m here ta help.” His southern drawl was mild and Hanzo groans in amusement as Jesse whoops in excitement when he started to follow in his father’s footsteps. Hanzo just hopes that his firstborn would forgo a giant blanket around him and a similar cowboy hat.

The leg instantly draws itself into the bushes and a low growl came from the bushes. It rustles as a man and a vicious looking dog came out from behind. James tried to run, but the man was quicker. He grabs onto his leg and pulls him up. James starts thrashing and clawing at the man’s hand without turning into a wolf.

“Let go of me, you creep!!” He yells and growls in frustration.

“You got spirit on you, boy. We need that.” He grins wickedly, a few of his teeth missing and James grimace at the smell of his breath. James starts to scream and the man clamps his dirty hand on his mouth.

“JAMES!!” A yell reaches his ears and before he could see aunt Satya, but the man was already running away with his dog keeping Satya distracted.

When Satya heard James yell, she stands instantly and runs to where he is, the Junkers heard it too.

“Stay with them lil’ ones, Mako!!” He growls. Anger rolling off of him. He only ever uses his real name when he’s angry or upset. He runs to where the dog is barking at Satya. He growls and snarls viciously at it and the dog runs away, whimpering.

“Where’s James?!” He looks over at Satya and she points to where the man disappeared, tears of frustration running down her face and an anger boiling in her veins.

“I’ll catch him, you stay with Mako.” With that he takes a quick sprint and Satya walks over the others and stays close to them.

“Is James going to be okay?!” Akira cries out, her eyes scared and voice quivering. Satya hugs her and reassures her that Jamie will get him. Caden held onto Mako and the giant man rubs his back soothingly. His sobs muffled by his shirt.

Meanwhile Junkrat was burning with rage when he finally catches up with the fucker. He sees little James trying so hard to wiggle out of his hold and when the man only knocks him out, Junkrat was ready to tear this man to pieces while he still breathes! They turn a corner into an alley and Junkrat has to jump on a few crates to catch up to them. When a fence came to his view, the man quickly tries to jump over it. By the time he reaches the other side, Junkrat hears a scream of agony and a gruesome sound of flesh being tear apart reaches his ears. Junkrat jumps over the fence and sees the man on the ground, holding onto his missing hand to his chest with James half transformed. His wolf ears are out and his claws and mouth bloodied. His eyes are red and he’s panting. Junkrat walks closer to the boy and by the time he reaches him and puts a hand on his shoulder, James broke down crying.

“James, I want ya ta cover ya ears and close y’re eyes, a’ight?” Junkrat whispers to him and James nodded frantically. He tucks in his ears and transforms back to human and proceeds to do what he’s been told. He turns away and Junkrat turns to the whimpering man on the ground.

“That kid’s a monster!! What the fuck is he even?!?!” He wails and Junkrat kicks him in the face.

“If tha’ kids a monster, then I’m fuckin’ Lucifer ‘imself.” He grins darkly and the man’s eyes widen with unadulterated fear. His screams were unheard to James.

Junkrat wipes the blood off both of them with his shirt and burns it. Dumps what remains of the man in a bin and spills gasoline that he found near one of the apartments and burns him in the trashcan. He closes the lid, after punching a few holes on it, on the bin and picks James up into his arms. The bones and severed hand of the man was buried, meat still clung to it, and he leaves with a quite James in his arms.

They take another route to get to the park. They had to pass many maze like paths, but after a while, Junkrat asks James whether he could catch the scent of his siblings and the rest. He says he can and they made back before the sun sets.

When they got there, Satya runs to them both and takes James in a hug. She holds on to him so tight, it’s like she’s trying to let him stick only to her. And then she turns her attention to Junkrat, she pulls him into the hug and he envelops them with his long arms. Roadhog came too with the children and they held on to each other for god knows how long.

“Don’t you ever scare me like that again, James Joseph McCree!” Akira yells out. Her hands tight around him and they held onto each other as they cry in relief. Happy and glad that the other is safe. She mews quietly when he whimpers and they bask in the embrace of the adults. Caden holds on to both his siblings, hiccupping and shaking.

When they finally calm down, each adult holds onto one child as they walk back. Satya carries James, his hold tight on her. Roadhog carries Caden, his shaking has stopped for the moment. Junkrat carries little Akira, her hand outstretched towards James’s hand, making him walk closer to Satya.

“We should tell Hanzo and Jesse. They need their parents right now.” Satya speaks out, voice quite with a little tremble.

“They ain’t goin’ ta be ‘appy bout’it when we get back.” Roadhog grumbles out.

“No, I imagine they wouldn’t.” She whispers.

They weren’t prepared for the rage that Jesse threw when he found out, he smelt their distress the moment their scent was in range and he runs to them when they reached the entrance. He picked up his children and immediately they cried, their arms round him and he tries to soothe them, hopefully it will help calm him too.

When Hanzo finds out, he demanded the whereabouts of that lowlife of a human and Jamie reassures him that he was taken care of. His eyes darken and Hanzo can see a touch of darkness in them before he bows a bit in his direction.

“Thank you, for saving my son, Jamieson.”

“‘T’s al’ight, mate. Ya would’ve done the same thing ta us.” He grins.

“That’s it! The next time y’all decide ta go to the park, we’re sending Reinhardt and Zarya!” He mutters darkly, his fangs peeking from the bottom of his lips. Satya flinches at that, her inability to protect them hits her harder than expected.

“Now Jesse, they did their best to protect our children. Things happen and there’s nothing you can do about it. They were only caught by surprise.” Hanzo tries to calm him down, but Jesse was having none of it. He passes the children to Hanzo so that he could blow off some steam by running on the gym’s treadmill. In his wolf form. Nobody was to disturb him at all when he’s in his full form. Afraid that he might accidentally channels his anger to them.

Hanzo turns to Satya, “I apologize for my mate’s behaviour. He didn’t mean what he said.” He sighs out. His hold on the children tight as they cling onto him.

“It’s fine, Hanzo.” She smiles sadly and she remembers something. “Your daughter is the feistiest little lady I have ever seen.” She laughs, the sound small and timid.

“Really?”Hanzo inquires, grabbing the opportunity for the change of subject.

“Yes. I believe it has something to do about masculinity and the color pink.” She lightly brushes her hand in the little girl’s hair.

“Really now? Tell me all about it.”

Hanzo’s presence helped calmed his children, but the bristles on his skin and the deep scowl on his face shows something else. After the small chatter with Satya, he brings the children to Angela to check them over and he gathers his litter together in the common room. The sense of them all together calms the burning rage in his blood and when Genji found out about the news, he was silent in his fury. He sits on the floor, near to his niece and nephews and Zenyatta followed suit. His calming presence helped in bringing the children to sleep and Hanzo changes into his full form. He had to ask for Genji to help remove the prosthetics and then he curls around the children protectively.

When the rest of the team hears about it, Hana quickly runs to the sleeping mother and children, Lucio following after, bringing his soothing music with him, Reinhardt bellows in anger, saying such profanities the gentle giant has never used.

“HOW DARE HE HARMS MY GREAT-GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN IN ZUCH MANNER!!!”

Angela was not far from using her secret stash of poison, and Lena was cursing all seven of Hells. Mei was quiet and her face went blank. Nobody wanted to know what’s going on in her head. Zarya went to help Gabe in calming Jesse down. Jack runs to the children.

When Gabe and Zarya stayed with Jesse, he prowls the gym like a caged animal. Literally, except without the cage. He would growl and snap when they make a move towards him. Gabe has had enough so he walked up to the giant canine and stood his ground, face fierce and arms folded.

“Look niño, I understand what it’s like to almost lose your loved ones, I get it. But your kids need you right now. Leaving them scared and still fresh from the kidnap will only lead to disaster. They need their papi, mijo. You can sulk when the kids are feeling safe again. Now, go.” He gives a stern look when Jesse made no move, and he growls lowly when Jesse growls.

Jesse lowers his head and didn’t even bother to change back into human. Before he leaves, he bumps his head on Gabe’s middle and continues with his direction to his mate and litter. When he came to the common area, he sees Hanzo curled around them and half the team in the room. They give room for him to reach his family and when he nuzzles on Hanzo’s neck, the neko purred, happy that his mate is near. He nuzzles his nose to the litter to see them transformed and sleeping. Ame wakes up with a jolt and a whimper, causing James to shake and whine. He yips a little to comfort them saying that he’s there for them and he’ll won’t let anything happen to them. They calmed down, but James climbs up on Hanzo’s side so he could nuzzle his dad. Jesse picks him up by the scruff of his neck with gentle teeth and places him back into the litter. He licks James head when the pup yips in protest. The pup lies back down without further argument when Jesse lies down behind his mate. His head cushioned on Hanzo’s torso, nose poking into the litter. His presence calming them further and the litter settles back into sleeping.

Gabe comes in after and watches the little family cuddle in the middle of the room before he makes a beeline for his beloved, who’s sitting on a sofa closer to the litter. He watches them with a small fear lingering in his gaze. Gabe picks him up effortlessly and places him on his lap.

“I keep forgetting how small they are, Gabe.” He whispers out.

“Small? Huh, you couldn’t even lift the girls anymore.” He huffs out, a smile in his voice.

“Well excuse me, Mr I’m-too-old-to-give-piggy-back-rides.” He counters. Eyes narrowing dangerously.

“I’m not that old yet!” He pipes out.

Jesse huffs a laugh…let’s hope it’s a laugh. And Gabe narrows his eyes at him.

“65 is old you know.” Hana points out.

“Sssshhhhh. I believe you mentioned that being 19 already counts that you are an adult.” Genji points. “Thus meaning, how would you say it? ‘old-enough-to-have-creaky-bones’?” She didn’t need to know he was smiling smugly behind his visor. His tone is enough indication.

“Curse you, you fool!” She imitates Hanzo, the scowl she did was too exaggerated.

They share a little laugh when the night grew late. None wanted to leave the little family. They each take their pillows and blankets and changed to their sleeping attire and rearranging the sofas to make the common area look like a giant nest of soft pillows and blankets. The litter woke up in the commotion and they each took a favourite person to sleep with.

Akira and Anya sleep in between Jack and Gabe. Their arms thrown over them protectively. Caden sleeps in Satya’s embrace with Jamieson and Mako surrounding the two. Jesse had bumped his head to Satya’s middle as an apology and she runs her hand on his head as acceptance. James sleeps in his parent’s embrace, his face tucked in Hanzo’s furry neck and Jesse’s maw resting lightly on his back. Little Ame sleeps in Lena’s embrace, his fist holding onto her shirt tightly. Hana, Lucio, Mei and Zarya sleep around the outer parts of the nest, Zarya next to Mei and Lucio sleeping on the couch, his shoulder acting as an extra pillow to Hana. Reinhardt sleeps on the recliner with his hammer behind the seat. Zenyatta and Genji both taking on looking over them, since they didn’t need to sleep. Content to just watch over their family silently as they sleep.

They sleep around the parents with the soft sound of the waves from the open window acting as a lullaby to them. Hanzo and Jesse knew that the children are in the embrace of the most protective, loving family they could ever have, and they worry not one bit that the children will grow up happy and content.

I should also probably mention that this story was the out-of-date one, because there’re no Anyas in the McHanzo litter. Anya changed to Aiko...Sorry for all of those that got confused o_o’
