Hi there! This is my first time posting a fanfiction so just to warn you some of the characters may be bit OC. I've loved Mortal Kombat since I was young and ever since I got Mortal Kombat X, I am hooked onto it. I had this idea of Scorpion being a babysitter when he took in Takeda and raised him while Kenshi went off to chase after the Red Dragon (you can find out about it from the Mortal Kombat comic series). I would appreciate any positive criticism but please no mean comments or what not. Hope you enjoy this!

"So you want me to babysit your kids while you all go off gallivanting into the city?" Hanzo glared at them with tired eyes. He had been training some of his men and had also been foreseeing the training of all the Shirai Ryu from dawn to evening for the past three days. He had collapsed into his bed and had nearly fallen to the bliss of sleep when one of his men had came in, informing him that there were guests that wanted to meet him.

"Hehe, well today is date night for me and Sonya. And I have some plans that involve just the two of us. We don't want to scar Cassie…yet." Johnny gave a wide grin, pulling Sonya closer to him with one arm. Sonya just rolled her eyes at that comment. "How about Raiden, Jax and Kenshi? Can't they babysit your daughter? Or maybe Sub-zero?" Hanzo mentioned.

Jax lit a cigar and took a deep breath of it "Well, today is mine and my wife's anniversary. I have some big plans for her tonight that does not and should not definitely involve my innocent daughter." Kenshi smiled morosely, "I found a lead on the Red Dragon's trail. It would take me a couple of days to catch them. Plus, Takeda really likes hanging out with you. I would really appreciate it if you could take care of Takeda, Hanzo."

Raiden looked straight at Hanzo with a serious face, "There was an attempted break-in into the vault containing Shinnok's amulet. Fortunately, we were able to catch the culprit and I am planning on interrogating him tonight. The Shaolin monks would be on full guard tonight to prevent him from escaping and I had to make sure that in the worst case scenario Kung Jin wouldn't be taken hostage if said culprit did escape. That is why I am asking you to take care of him and I would really appreciate it, Hanzo."

Sonya pulled away from Johnny, "We had tried coming to Sub-zero but he was pretty busy on rebuilding the Lin Kuei. Also, Sub-zero doesn't have any parental experience. You, on the other hand, do."

Hanzo sighed tiredly. He really wanted to sleep but if he didn't accept the job, they would just annoy him until he accepted it. "Fine. I'll babysit your kids but you owe me. Where are they now?" Right on cue, Takeda, Cassie, Jacqui, and Kung Jin came running into the meeting room. "Kung Jin, you are so dead!" Cassie and Jacqui both screamed, chasing after Kung Jin who was laughing throughout the whole chase. Takeda was right behind them trying to stop them from beating Kung Jin up, "Cassie, Jacqui please stop! Please don't fight!" Kung Jin just stuck his tongue out at them "Ha! You can't catch me! I'm way faster than the two of you." Unfortunately, Kung Jin wasn't watching where he was going and crashed right into Hanzo. This led to Cassie, Jacqui and Takeda who were unable to stop in time crashing right into both Kung Jin and Hanzo, causing all of them to fall over onto the floor.

Johnny was laughing his ass off while Sonya rolled her eyes, smiling slightly at the spectacle before her. Jax was also laughing at the sight. Kenshi and Raiden just face palmed.

"Oooowwww…" All four kids looked up and saw a man with long hair and beard glaring at them intensely. "UH OH. We are so in big trouble." Takeda immediately realized who the man was. "Mr. Hanzo! I am so sorry! We didn't mean to crash into you." "Takeda, you know him?" Jacqui stared curiously at Hanzo. "Yeah! He would take care of me when Dad has to go and do his business. He's a great guy! He's stern but he's really fair. Guys, apologize to him especially you Kung Jin. After all you crashed into Mr. Hanzo first." Kung Jin, being stubborn as always, refused, "Why should I? He was in my way. If he wasn't in my path, I wouldn't have crashed into him." Raiden coughed slightly to get Kung Jin's attention and glared at Kung Jin, angry at his rudeness. "Kung Jin, apologize to Master Hanzo right now. Or would you rather that I let Master Hanzo punish you. And I will let you know, Master Hanzo's punishments are scarier than mine." Kung Jin immediately paled and quickly muttered an apology to Hanzo. Cassie and Jacqui also immediately apologized to Hanzo for crashing into him.

Hanzo still glared at them but not as intense as before. "Apology accepted. Now could you please get off of me?" All four kids immediately got off him. Hanzo stood up and looked at all five adults in front of him. "Shouldn't you be on your way now instead? I'll take care of the kids." All five adults bid their goodbyes to their children and told them to behave. After they left, all four kids looked to Hanzo wondering if he had any fun plans that he had for them. Hanzo looked at the four kids wearily, "What did I just get myself into?"
