Redemption From Resemblance (McHanzo)

Lose Then Gain

The situation was beginning to look dire. There seemed to be no end in sight regarding the enemies and both McCree and Hanzo were starting to run low on ammo. The archer had begun resorting to using his bow in order to conserve arrows while the cowboy started throwing left hooks at Talon agents that got too close. Both had resorted to covering for the other while the rest of the Overwatch members fought elsewhere, the communicators letting them know that Lucio was currently with Reinhardt while Genji was taking care of enemies elsewhere (no one was quite sure where but he assured them he was doing alright). The group had also contacted Winston a while ago, debating retreat or sending in reinforcements. It was decided that another group (consisting of who, those currently fighting weren't sure yet) would be sent in to lend aid. Retreat would take place only if the added firepower wouldn't be able to put a dent in the Talon forces.

The call had taken place quite a bit ago (Hanzo wasn't sure exactly how long since he was focused on other, more important things like not dying), and the other team had yet to show. Their current situation had only grown worse as well, fueling Hanzo's irritation along with his growing collection of cuts and bruises. He counted himself and the others lucky that there had been no major injuries yet, but the assassin knew that it was only a matter of time before a bullet belonging to the enemy pierced flesh rather than grazed it.

Hanzo also had a little voice in the back of his mind saying that it was rather strange how there were so many Talon agents yet there was yet to be a sign of Reaper or Widowmaker. He hoped they wouldn't show and were off doing something else because it would only make things worse if either (even worse, both) showed up this late into the fighting. They didn't need more enemies, especially not two of the most powerful (and annoying) foes they've faced so far.

Hanzo lets out a quick sigh of relief when Winston's voice filters in through the communicator.

“The others are almost there, ETA is about two minutes. Hold out until then.” The archer had to wonder why it was taking them so long to get here, that maybe they were having issues of their own, but he was too thrilled to really care. Hanzo instead focused on the enemy who was about to shoot McCree while said man was turned around, arrow flying and killing the Talon member instantly. The favor was returned when the gunslinger shot a man aiming for Hanzo while he was worried about the other agent, and both sent each other small and quick smiles as thanks before their attention was back on the fight. Both were seriously debating using their ultimate attacks to thin the enemy numbers, and when they were driven out onto one of the streets, Hanzo readied an already bloody arrow that he had shot then taken from a corpse. He just had to make sure the other man wouldn't be in the way of his attack.

“McCree. Get behind me.” Said man spares him a glance before doing as he's told (which Hanzo is thankful for and has a feeling that the younger man knew what he was thinking), moving to stand behind the assassin who aims at the many Talon agents before them. Feeling the pressure begin to well in his arm, Hanzo growls out his summons and lets the arrow fly, electric blue dragons cutting through the enemies with ferocity and taking out most of them. McCree whistles behind him, still awestruck at the sight before his attention was on the stragglers that hadn't gotten hit by Hanzo's dragons. Sidestepping so he was next to the older man, McCree fanned the hammer and took out the rest of them. Both men take the welcomed moment to breathe as the enemies are temporarily taken care of, the archer collecting arrows that he has probably used a multitude of times by now. There's both dried and wet blood on all of them, and Hanzo wonders how long he's going to spend cleaning and fixing the few arrows he'll leave with (if they leave because there has been no end of Talon agents). He's just grabbed the last arrow he can find when more enemies round the corner of a building and find the two men, giving Hanzo the chance to aim the arrow he just pulled and fire it while McCree fans the hammer once again.
