prologue.
No one pov.
In the diner on Route 66 2 figures sat alone away from each other. One that was eating a pie could instantly be identified as Jesse McCree. The other would be instantly mistaken as Elizabeth Caledonia “Calamity” Ashe. But on another look you would notice that this person was more slim in the chest region, built with shorter hair, their outfit seemed to be more tailored for a man instead of a woman.
This was the unknown twin brother of Elizabeth. James Ashe. He grew up the exact opposite of his sister. Where Ashe was the more gun blazing, take what you want, I will be known kinda girl, Nathen was a humble, cautious, and help out everyone kinda guy. They were 2 sides of the same coin. James was currently eating a cheeseburger at the counter as he heard the train. He glanced over his shoulder at McCree who had just put on his hat. James finished his burger as he heard the train get derailed and crash. Standing up, James loaded up his rifle that was exactly the same as his sisters. "So partner. Are you ready?" McCree asked as James nodded. They then walked out to see Ashe and her gang moving stuff. James and McCree startled a member causing him to run and alert Ashe.
"ASHE! WE GOT TROUBLE!" A goon said running out pointing at McCree and James who had his rifle slung over his shoulder.
"Jesse McCree and my brother Ranger James." Ashe said as her brother smirked at her. "Been awhile you two." She looked at her brother. "You said you'd write."
"Well Ashe," McCree said lightning a cigarette, "i've been kinda busy."
"You never gave an address." James said.
"Well we're kinda busy ourselves. Awfully convenient for you to show up today." Ashe said with her rifle on her shoulder.
"I've never been one to shy away from a good tip." McCree answered.
"We worked hard for this score you 2 move along."
"All he wants in the Crate Ashe. You can keep everything else." James said as he got his rifle ready.
Timeskip.
After the fight with the Deadlock gang James and McCree tied up the gang before Jesse opened the Crate. James nodded to McCree before walking off to a blue motorcycle. "See you later cowboy." James yelled to McCree as he rode off.
"Later ranger." McCree says faintly as James rode. As James rode through Chicago Illinois he started to reflect on the offer Jesse gave him before.
Flashback.
"Come on James. Join overwatch. We could use more people like you." Jesse offered as the two walked into the diner before the heist happened.
"I'll think about it. But no promises." James said as the went to their own seats.
Flashback end.
While in thought James almost didn't notice the beeping coming from his phone. He pressed a button on his bike and the beeping stopped to be replaced with the face of a gorilla.
"Hello James. My name is winston. I was hoping that McCree had given you the offer to join our group. If so will you join Overwatch?" James stared straight ahead at the empty road while listening.
"I'll have to come and check out the place first." James answered as he heard Winston talking to someone with a swiss accent.
"Very well. We will have one of are members come to you and pick you up in a dropship." The gorilla said.
"Okay." James said as he saw a lone motel. He parked his bike and went into the motel check in room.
"Hey Ranger." The clerk said as James took off his hat. "How was today?"
"Pretty boring. We got any customers?" James asked already knowing the answer.
"Nope." The clerk said as James nodded walking into the Managers room. He hung up his hat on a hook attached to the door before taking off his boots. He leaned his rifle against his dresser. He put the boots by the door and laid on the bed in his zip up vest, white shirt and dark pants. From a window orangish red light shone in signaling in that the sun was setting.
"Hey James I'm closing up. Do you need anything before I go home?" The clerk asked.
"No. Go ahead. Also I think you should find a job somewhere else. I think I might have to shut down the motel." No response came from the clerk as the jingle of a door was heard. James say in silence as he slowly drifted to sleep. The sound of a loud engine woke james from his dreamless sleep. Sitting up from the bed he looked out the window to see artificial light shine in. Standing up, James put on his boots and hat while putting his gun back in its sling. He walked out to see a big ship with the overwatch logo. From the side of the ship one lady with blonde hair in a ponytail dressed in a tshirt and black leggings walked out towards the check in room. James leaned on the clerk desk as the door was pushed open. "Hello welcome to Route 66 motel. All of our rooms are vacant so just ask for a key and you got it." James greeted already knowing that she wasn't here for a room.
"Are you James Ashe?" The woman asked.
"Yes ma'am I am." He said as she smiled.
"I am Angela Zigelar. I'm supposed to take you to Watch point Gibraltar." She explained as he looked down. He didn't answer and pulled out a sign. Closed for good. If you need a place to sleep then just take a key. He then set it on the desk before looking at Angela.
"Lead the way ma'am." James said as he walked out and drove his motorcycle onto the ship. After doing so he sat next to Angela who seemed a bit nervous. He didn't notice and just went to sleep.
