UNCLE GENJI - Blog Posts

The Beginning part 15

Angela sighs and sits down as Genji looks at his niece with a sigh. 

“Should we go take her to her parents?” Genji asks as she starts to gum at her onesie buttons. 

“Yeah. Hanzo should be awake by now.” She says, rubbing her eyes.

She gathers up the things she bought for the baby and follows Genji to Hanzo and Mccree’s room, playing with the little baby in Genji’s arms.

Genji unlocks the door after a soft knock and looks around, the room dark, cold, and the sound of running water constant. Angela turns up the thermostat and goes to check on Mccree while Genji goes to see if his brother is the one running the water to find him sitting on the edge of the tub rubbing his eyes as a hot shower runs. “Anija. Are you alright?” He asks and Hanzo looks up, not noticing the baby in Genji’s arms. “I am fine Genji. Just cold.” He says and Genji sighs. “Maybe if you put the plastic on you could actually warm up in that warm shower.” He says, helping his brother slowly stand. “Why do you have a baby?” He asks as Angela comes in with a plastic sleeve for Hanzo. 

“I found her in Winston’s lab after the accident. She is yours and Mccree’s.” Angela says as the two of them help Hanzo get ready for his shower. “Excuse me?” Hanzo asks, looking like he just heard he won a million dollars. 

“You have a daughter.” Genji says and Hanzo looks at the baby. “C-... can I hold her?” He asks and Genji nods, handing her over to his brother who holds the baby gently and looks into the galaxy of her hair. 

Hanzo sniffs a little and smiles at her. 

“Hello little one. I’m your Otōsan.” He sniffs and wipes away some tears. “She’s uh, she’s deaf.” Angela says and Hanzo feels his heart drop to his stomach. He kisses her forehead and hugs her before handing her back to them for while he showers. 

Genji sighs as they wait for him.

“I feel so bad for him.” Angela sighs. 

“He will persevere. He’s strong and I know he will have whatever support he may need from Mccree.” Genji says confidently. 

Angela nods and looks at the little baby in her boyfriend’s arms.

“Let’s find a place to lay her down. Since they’ll need to buy a crib, a basket with some pillows and blankets should do for a temporary solution, right?” Genji asks as he starts to look around for an empty basket and spare sleeping things in a closet. “Uhm, yeah. For a temporary amount of time. Even if it’s considered child neglect I think as the resident doctor I can overlook it.” She says as she helps him make a basket nice and cozy for the baby before laying her down. 

The baby smiles up at them, innocent and happy.

Genji jumps up happily and raises the baby above his head. 

“I’m an uncle!” He smiles at the baby who giggles at him. 

“How is this possible?” Angela asks herself aloud. 

“My machine may have brought her about. I-... I don’t remember what it was even supposed to do.” Winston says. 

“I don’t care how it happened. I have a niece!” Genji smiles.  

“Here, let me run a few more tests, and then we can take her to her parents.” Angela says, taking the laughing baby. 

The baby giggles and pats Angela’s face as she is taken to a testing room. 

Angela does basic tests and reruns a few of them, stumped by the results she’s given before going back to the main medbay. There she finds Reaper talking with Genji. 

“Ah, Angela, just the doctor I needed to see. I was worried about Jesse. Why is he not in here where you can keep an eye on- Is that a baby?” Reaper says.

“Yes. We found her in Winston’s lab during the evacuation.” She says as she gives the baby to Genji. “Who’s is it?” He asks, concerned for the infant. 

“Hanzo and Mccree’s.” She says, sitting at her desk. “You’re a grandfather.” She chuckles lightly at his face.

“How-? Actually, I don’t care!” Reaper smiles as the baby giggles at her uncle. 

“Want a chance to hold her?” Genji offers and Reaper takes her gently, curious about her galaxy hair. 

“Hey, there little one.” He coos at her, making Angela sigh. “What?” He asks her. 

“She’s deaf.” Angela says, looking at her hands clasped on her desk. 

Genji and Reaper are taken with shock as they look at the very happy baby in the arms of her grandfather. 

Winston hums at the news. 

“Do her parents know yet?” Reaper asks as he gives the baby back to Genji sadly. 

“They don’t know she’s even alive yet. Genji and I were planning to take her to them in a little while. If you wish to inform Morrison you may. He may want to meet her too before we take her to them. Hopefully, Hanzo will still be awake when we do.” She says. 

Reaper nods and wraiths away while Winston looks curiously at the little deaf child in Genji’s arms. 

“Perhaps, if you allow me to run some tests, I can cure her deafness without the hassle of an implant.” Winston says, getting a “bright” idea. 

“Tests? What you mean is experiment on her!” Genji frowns, holding the baby protectively. 

“Yes but think of the good that could come from it!” Winston defends himself.

“You will not be experimenting on an infant!” Angela stands abruptly. 

“But-” “No!” Angela and Genji both shout. 

Winston sighs. 

“Fine, I won’t experiment on her. I will leave her be. If anyone needs me, I’ll be cleaning up my lab.” Winston huffs and leaves the medbay.
