Summary:
"Echo," Omega said softly, her voice still wobbly with tears.
"Hmm."
"I'm really glad Rex and the Batch found you."
Echo smiled. "So am I, kid," he said. He reached his hand up to stroke her hair. "And I'm really glad you found us too."
Another great Fanfiction surrounding Omega (my favorite and favorite duo is Crosshair and Omega) :)
Autumn Leaves
Chapter 1: The Nature Book
Chapter 2: (coming soon!)
Read on AO3! or under the cut!
Summary: When they land on a planet in the middle of it’s fall season, Omega is excited to see the colourful forest for the first time.
Or some fall themed fluff centered on Omega and the Bad Batch!
Warnings: No warnings, really. Just a lot of fluff.
Word Count: 2, 237
“We have arrived.” Tech said as he lowered the Havoc Marauder onto the planet’s surface.
Omega heard his words from the hold where she had been sitting beside Crosshair while he disassembled and cleaned his rifle. She could feel the landing gear hit the ground, softly rocking the ship as Tech landed it.
She immediately sprung to her feet, buzzing with the anticipation of seeing another new planet. She heard Crosshair shifting behind her as she rushed to the cockpit.
They’d gotten into a firefight while on a job for Cid and Tech had told them that their engine was too damaged to make it back to Ord Mantell. So they had to make a quick stop for repairs.
Omega had to push her way past Wrecker’s hulking frame in one of the back seats to get a clear view of the cockpit. When she did, she stopped in awe.

I love this! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE DO A PIC, FANFIC OR ANYTHING SIMILAR?!? There’s too many Fanfics that have romantic characters or whatever (I’m sorry if that’s rude). I just prefer non romantic relationship dynamics lol. I’m sorry, I went OVER BOARD on tags (didn’t mean to lol!), had a seizure so brain is fuzzy today. I SHOULD be doing my Hawaiian language lesson for today now on DUOLINGO INSTEAD of obsessing over OMEGA (only bc she’s much harder to find lol) and/or ALWAYS TRY to find ANYTHING AT ALL that is OMEGA & CROSSHAIR; OMEGA & GROGU lol! Omega & Cross are fave sibling duo; Omega & Grogu are my all time fave characters lol!!!!

Hemlock: We have someone you might like to see. *brings Omega*
Crosshair: *pulling Omega towards him* Hurt her and I’ll kill you.
Very new here and still trying to figure this out but wrote a mini Bad Batch story to try and fill the gaps in my head. Some mentions of grief and loss. Takes place after Season 2 finale. Hope you enjoy.
Hope
Hunter sat in the pilot seat of the Marauder, staring at the hypnotizing blue swirls of hyperspace as his brother, Wrecker, snored loudly from the back of the ship. The hum of the engine, the random clinks and bangs that were ever present background noise a few weeks ago were now so pronounced Hunter would occasionally flinch.
Even so, it was too quiet. Echo had stayed with them for a week or two, but suggested that Rex and his network would be the best shot at Intel that could lead them to Omega. Hunter understood his reasoning but Omega’s words rang in his ears whenever he thought about it.
“…but he’s not here. We’re meant to be a squad”.
They weren’t much of a squad anymore. With Crosshair lost to imperial custody, Omega kidnapped (again), Echo off with Rex and Tech…
Hunter ran his hands through his hair and over his face, stubbornly wiping at the tears that had formed at the thought of his lost brother. He looked to the copilots’ seat to see Tech’s goggles, lifelessly staring back at him.
They hadn’t known what to do with them at first. Wrecker had spent the first two days gingerly cradling them as he moved about the ship. When he finally put them down, in the pilots chair the three of them paused in silent tribute. They had since been moved to the copilot’s seat, always on watch. They couldn’t stay there forever; they all knew that. But it was as good a place as any for now.
Hunter let out a sigh and heard Wrecker grunt and roll over on the bunk. He was unprepared for what was next. Had been all along really. There were no leads, he had no strategy, they were flying but he didn’t really know why or where. Echo’s comms were infrequent at best. Whatever he and Rex were up to, it was time consuming, and he couldn’t help feeling like Omega should be the priority. She had to be.
Hunter had this buzzing in his brain that got louder whenever he thought of Omega, especially the last few days. This was the longest they had been apart since they took her off Kamino. The Marauder seemed so lifeless without her, like every sun in the galaxy had shut off at once. He missed her giggle, and how she hovered too close as he practiced twirling his knife and the way her legs dangled from the gunner mount as she snuggled with Lula. He looked back through the ship to the tooka doll slumped under Omega’s chair.
They had stopped to gather supplies and every time desperately asked around as if by some miracle she had passed through.
“Have you seen a young girl, blonde hair, wide, bright, amber eyes”. They were always asked who she was to them, and Hunter always struggled to answer. She was the youngest member of their squad, their sister technically, but what she really was to him got caught in his throat. It was a word that clones didn’t use, had no use for really… Daughter. That’s what he wanted to say. “She is my daughter, our daughter” but how do you explain that? Besides, he knew it was useless. Omega was lost to Hemlock’s secret base. There would be no trace on some random planet. He knew that but it didn’t stop him asking, every time.
A button on the far side on the console trilled and Hunter leaned over and flicked it off more aggressively than was necessary. Echo should still be here. He thought glumly. If Echo were missing, Omega would stop at nothing to get him back. How could he leave her? Leave them?
Hunter stood up and kicked the console to his right. Sharp pain radiated from his foot and up his leg like electricity. Yeah, that’ll fix everything, he thought bitterly, a broken toe. He wanted to brake things. He wanted to rage. Where was a battle droid in need of dismembering when you wanted one? He closed his eyes and took a breath. He had to focus. He had to plan. There was no margin for error, or doubt, or pain. He had to push it all down and push all the fear away. Because that’s what it was. Fear.
He had lost Tech. That was on him. His plan, his squad, his loss. He was responsible. He had left Crosshair. That was on him too. What if he was dead now too? What if he never got a chance to make things right? Omega was taken from him, from them. She was a child. She was his responsibility, and he had failed her too.
There was nothing about war that scared him, had every scared him really. It’s what they were made for. He feared for his brothers’ safety from time to time but as the war went on and they pulled off one daring, insane mission after the next, even that didn’t cross his mind. Wrecker using his head as a battering ram, okay. Tech hacking a separatist ship when they were outnumbered thousands to one, sure. Crosshair taking out a Tactical droid for 12 clicks, easy. But since Kamino, since the Republic fell fear was gnawing at his chest and now. After everything that had happened, that feeling seemed like it would consume him completely. The crushing weight of the last few weeks, few years, came crashing down on to him.
His hands shook. His breath rattled deafeningly in his ears. Fat tears fell onto his bandaged arm and refused to stop. He didn’t know how long he stood there, hunched over the console, arm outstretched as though to catch him if he fell, as if he had any strength left.
Just when he thought he wouldn’t be able to catch his breath, just when he thought he would die from his despair and utter hopelessness, he felt a shovel sized hand grab his shoulder and pull him into a suffocating bearhug.
Even with enhanced hearing, Hunter hadn’t known Wrecker was there until he was on top of him. He was too consumed in his overwhelming grief to notice. His body was shutting down. He was giving up. Wrecker’s mountainous form engulfed him so completely he had to tap on his shoulder to get him to loosen his grip. Hunter wasn’t much of a hugger, but he didn’t try to pull back.
Wrecker pulled away when Hunter’s breathing started to return to normal and gave his brother two sharp claps on the shoulder blade.
“we’ll get ‘er back Hunta. We’ll get Cross back too.” he said earnestly. “it’s been days since you’ve slept. Why don’t you get some rest. I’ll keep an eye on things up here?”
Hunter steadied himself. His breath, his body, his mind. He gave his brother a curt nod, wiped his face on his uninjured arm and straightened his bandana over his forehead.
He wasn’t the type to lose control. There was always a way, there was always a plan, there was always…hope.

So I made this today while doing alot of driving with my grandma so I hope you all enjoy alot of shit has gone down today so I put alot of how I'm feeling into writing this fanfic so enjoy.
~~~~~~~~~~~
The bad batch had been on Ord Mantell for a while now working for Cid. That's how you had meet the odd band of clone men. Cid had you working as a bar tender for who knows how long.
She had taken you in when you were young. As much as Cid puts up the bad guy act she cares alot and that transfered over to her looking after you as one of her own.
Meeting all the boys and Omega had been an experience and a half. Five roudy clones which had turned your world upside down. Echo is a kind soul who looks out for his batch and tries to keep the peace very much the mom of the group.
Wrecker was the crazy explosive uncle kind of figure who always spoke his mind even if it offered people. Tech seemed like the older bother kind of guy. He used his smarts to get everyone in and out of trouble constantly and always had something to talk about.
Omega the youngest of the batch was a riot to be around she had dragged you into quite a few of her plans when being left on Ord Mantell. And you had taken to her quite alot making sure she stayed out of as much trouble as you could.
And then there was Hunter. The leader of the bad batch and the self appointed father of Omega. Your first opinion of him was he was broody but you had seen how he interacted with Omega. He always seemed to have a smile on his face. And watching him now as he went up against Omega in a game was quite adorable.
It had been a busy night tonight and now it had slowed down thanks to the batch coming back. Wiping down the benches is where you now find yourself as you watch them both plan out their next move in their strategy.
Echo has himself seat at the bar sipping on a dirty wastelander while he chats with Tech. You hum along lightly to the music playing thought the holotape.
You hear Omega shout in joy while Hunter laughs along "Yes! I knew I could do it!" You laugh out and clap your hands. "Congratulations Omega" you call out. Hunter moves over to pick Omega up and spin her around.
"Can we get a drink for the running champion here" Hunter calls out to you as he hold Omega. " sure can Sarge! One Quantum soda coming up, can I get you anything?" You call out as you turn around to prep the young girls drink. "I'll have what ever you recommend" Hunter calls back. You smile to yourself as you lean down to grab two glasses.
Unknown to you the new figure who enters the bar. "I lost all my credits to you kid and your gonna pay" a voice calls as a blaster is pulled to Hunter's head. Everyone goes still in the bar. Your eyes go wide as kneel behind the bar bench hidden from view.
"Easy, easy let's all talk this out live civil people" Cid calls out walking slowly with her hands raise. Hunter holds deadly still Omega still in his arms. "My problem isn't with anyone but the kid, so stay out of this" the twi'lek calls. Your eyes look down towards the slug thrower hidden behind the many glasses and cups.
"If your deal is with my daughter your deal is with all of us" Hunter calls only to have the blaster shoved into the back of his head. "Shut up, shut up, I want my credits back"
You move slowly reaching in to grab the slug thrower. Your hand wraps around the grip before you slowly pull it towards yourself. You look towards Cid who can see you. She shakes her head a no. Before speaking up.
"Listen, listen I can sort this out If you put the blaster away, the kid works for me" Cid says while taking a few steps forward only to now have the twi'lek pointing the blaster at her. "I told you not to move!" At this you take it as your sign to stand up and point the slug thrower at the intruder.
"This is your warning put the blaster down before I turn you into mantell mix, and I promise I'm a quicker draw then you are." You say while point the weapon at the twi'lek's head. He quickly turns to face you fear in his eyes. The rest of the boys are quick to draw their weapons.
"You come into My club and threaten my employees, you have some balls kid" Cid says walking up towards you. "Give me the word Cid and I'll have clean up ready, no one threatens a kid here" you call almost deadly serious. "I...I'm sorry, I'm sorry"
the twi'lek stutters as he looks around to see he's out numbered. Hunter let's out a sigh of relief as Omega quickly jumps out of his arms and moves to hide behind the bar beside you. She looks over and watches as Hunter gets a punch in on the intruder before Wrecker grabs the man by his shirt and walks him to the door.
"And don't you dare come back here and threaten a child!" You call out as you follow Wrecker. Gun still pointed at the man as he is thrown on the street. "If I see you here again your body won't ever be found" you calls as you fire a warning shoot.
The man is out of sight almost instantly and bystanders watch in horror and shock. "What are you all looking at" Wrecker says before everyone goes back to minding their own business.
You walk back in to see Hunter checking Omega and Cid sitting down shaking her head. "I think you might have over done it (Y/n)" she calls which makes you shake your head.
"Isn't this kind of situation exactly what you trained me to deal with. And if i remember correctly you did something very similar when I was younger" you say with a smile on your face as you walk over to Hunter and Omega.
"Are you two alright" you ask while doing a quick check of them. "Yea, it's not the first fire fight we have been in I think Omega is a little shaken up" Hunter says as the young girl moves quickly to hug you.
"Thank you, thank you!" She says hugging you tightly. Leaning down you smile to the young girl. "Are you alright honey" she nods before pushing her head into your chest and shaking. You wrap your arms around her and rub her back. "It's ok, it's ok sweetie your safe, no one got hurt your alright" you say softly trying to calm her down.
"You were really brave Omega, hoe about we get you that drink, ok" she nods as you walk back over to the bar and placing the slug thrower on the bench. Your quick to wip up the drink for Omega.
After that the rest of the night until closing is quite Omega disappears with Echo before closing. Tech and Wrecker and now no where to be seen. Hunter is sat at a table with his head in his hands. You smile lightly while walking over with two drinks. "Order for tall, dark and broody." You say jokingly which makes him look up and take the drink with a small smile.
"Thanks" he says before taking a sip and cringing at the amount of alcohol. "What in the galaxy is this" he ask while coughing. "It's calls a 'no regrets', talk to be Sarge you have been sitting over here brooding since Omega went to bed, so talk get it off your chest it will make you feel better" you says while also taking a mouthful of your own drink.
"I should have sensed him, I.." you cut him off before he can continue. "Hunter, you were preoccupied with a little girl who had just won against you in a game and were excited for her. Your not going to always be able to sense things. It's called over stimulation and having to many things happen at once can do it. What happened was a chance accident. It happens" you says which makes him slouch in his seat. "It nearly cost both Cid and Omega" he says while taking another mouthful.
"It wouldn't have happened Cid knew I needed a distraction, and she provided. Hunter I've been in this exact situation many times Cid taught me how to shoot slugs because her first time having to save my ass was when I was about Omegas age. Had a bunch of angry drunks out for me for pick pocketing. And that's how she took me in. Taught me how to shoot and I've had to pull that gun out alot it's a bar there's always a chance of some angry person coming in wanting to rob, or hold the place up. I did what was instinct and what I was trained to do." You reply with a smile. "Omega reminds me alot of myself when I was a kid, it's reason I try and look out for her when you guys are off on missions" you reply.
"Thank you (Y/n) I don't know what we would have done" Hunter says lightly. You take his hands hd them. "Any time Hunter, I'd recommend you get some sleep, you will need it" you reply as you down the rest of your drink.
Standing up you go to walk back to the bar when Hunter grabs your arm quickly. "No regrets" he says which makes you tilt your head before he stand up and pulls you closer and presses his lips to yours. Your eyes go wide before Hunter pulls away. "Sorry, good night" he says before beginning to walk way. "Hunter!" You call only for him to turn back and look at you.
"Kiss me again, please" you call out which makes him stop in his place. He turns to you, you quickly make your way over to him and wrap your arms around him and kiss him again. He melts into your touch his arms wrap around you as he pulls you in closer.
"Took your sweet time Hunter" a voice calls out which makes you both look to see Echo and Cid walk out of the shadows for you both to see. Echo leans against the wall with a smile while Cid walks towards you both.
"You hurt my kid Broody and it will be war, do I make myself clear" she says which makes Hunter nod. "Understand ma'am" it's quite before Cid speaks up. "Get out of here you lot, I'll finish cleaning up"
With that you grab Hunter's arm and pull him towards the back doors. "Let's get out of here sarge "
Note this was originally a comment but it got too long, this is just my opinion about Hunter & I know fan-fics are interpretations not reality but I have problems accepting that… anyway.
Take it slow, Hunter has a LOT of things to deal with, he wouldn't be pursuing a relationship, she would have to be pursuing HIM likely. Like Phee and Tech.
Additionally, Hunter doesn't seem that affectionate like in a touchy way, he never hugs Omega directly(S1 & 2) he just lets her hug him. The most we really get as ‘touchy affection’ is him tucking her hair behind her ear in S2. Therefore, again, the female would have to take the lead on—ahem. kissing.
I only have 2 more things to add, it might be difficult for the romantic relationship if she’s introduced as someone he needs to protect like Omega. Because yeah he feels the need to protect the squad but if she’s folded in, it might be difficult to see her as anything more.
Finally emotions, Hunter clearly bottles up emotions so he can appear strong as the leader, it's kinda hard to read him. This could potentially cause problems for a future suitor.
Sorry if I got too preachy like I said it's my interpretation and I like the idea of writing the characters as if you copy and paste them from the show and drop them in a new and strange situation and simulate how they'd act. I don't see him act as he is a lot and this^ is just what I'd like to see explored. Thanks for reading my ramble.
Oh and I don’t know anything abt advertising a fanfic so all I can recommend is see what others do and copy them. Like maybe posting promotions on your Tumblr account and posting the fan-fic on multiple platforms, like Fanfiction.net and A03.
Hope this helps!
Gonna try to start up a Bad Batch fic but i have no idea how to promote it in any way when I get it written
It’s gonna be a Hunter x OC and it’s gonna hopefully cover all 3 seasons
Any tips?
