It was early morning when the Reds in Valhalla awoke, not that anyone could tell. Unless you had a clock, you would never know what time of day it was, as the light from the three suns shining down on the area would keep the place in daylight at all times. As the Reds rubbed the sleep from their eyes, Sarge had taken on a new form of psychosis.
"Simmons! Fix that crooked armor plate, soldier!" Sarge barked. "Grif! Do something useful, for the love of God!"
They spent the early hours cleaning the base, something had needed to be done for quite some time. Donut turned to the two older soldiers who cleaned with him.
"So, why is Sarge so tense today? We haven't even done our customary five laps yet!"
Simmons pulled off his maroon helmet, revealing his young face. "Sarge's daughter is coming. He wants this place to be perfect for when she gets here."
"How do you know all this stuff?" Grif asked him.
"Why else would I constantly try to stay on his good side? I find out all the good information before you, dipshit." Simmons smirked. In the distance, a 'Pelican' was heard, and Sarge started to panic.
"Donut! Dust faster! I can't have my little girl seeing this place a dump!"
"Yes sir!" Donut complied quickly, using the duster to the best of his ability. The 'Pelican' landed just outside, and several people came out.
"Oh sweet Jesus! She's here! Quick everyone! Assemble!" Sarge called out, and the team lined up, standing straight as boards.
A group of armor clad people entered the premises, led by a lilac soldier and a light pink soldier. The group was solemn, as if it was a great burden to be there. The two leaders approached Sarge, and the group started loading supplies off the 'Pelican'.
"Hello, Father," the lilac soldier saluted. "Red Base looks nice. Perfect for these refugees."
"Holly, what in the Hell is going on here?" Sarge saluted back, and the light pink soldier took off her helmet to reveal a older looking woman. "Betty?"
"Yes, Sarge," the woman, Betty, replied. "It's me. I know you said your wife would be in danger on the battle field, but right now, it's the safest place."
"You see, Dad," Holly took over, as Betty started crying. "Earth has been taken. We lost to the aliens, and the Command sent the women and children over to the most secure bases of the Red and Blue armies. Half of this group is staying here, and the other half, including me, are being assigned to the Blue Base, though they have not been alerted yet."
A heavy silence settled over the army, taking in the information, as Holly summed up the information simply. "We are here to try to rebuild what we can, perhaps repopulate. That's all we can do. Earth has been lost."
