Red
and
Blue
VS
Syn
and
The Raging Hobo
(BOLD FACE DISCLAIMER!)
AGAIN I DO NOT OWN RED VS BLUE NOR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS, HOWEVER THE NEWEST FREELANCERS CODE NAMED SYN AND THE RAGING HOBO ARE OF MY OWN CREATION
"So Tex, any ideas on how to get your new friend out there to stop shooting at us?" Tucker stuttered, the pelting hot brass threatening their very existences "If he's your friend, then why is he shooting at us?" Tex only turned to the rookie and slugged him with the butt of her handgun before turning back to the rest of the team... and their two frightened 'guests' "Gee, if I knew that, I wouldn't be hiding here would I?" The bullets suddenly ceased and each of them was hesitant to even try and glance to see what had happened after Church's little show when he used Caboose as an experiment. Finally the ghost sniper looked up to the rookie "hey Caboose, go see if he's out of ammo" The blue rookie might have been dumb, but no one is that dumb "No Way! I nearly got killed last time!" Church stared at him then looked to Tex and Tucker "Will you two do the honors?"
Caboose screamed as he was thrown over the top of the base and listened as his helmet smashed into a rock. Soon his groans finished and he yelled out to them "He's not here!" Each of them waited a moment for a gunshot before Church muttered in disappointment. When they peeked over they found the jeep and its owner gone "huh, that's weird... wait... where's the tank?" Church glanced around, Tucker was right, their tank was gone "Hey Caboose! Did you take the Tank out again?!" They could really use it in this situation. However after Caboose glanced around he screamed "THEY KIDNAPPED SHEILA!!" A earth wrecking explosion followed by two screaming flying suits of armor came after the rookies scream. The last two reds slammed into the concrete at the top of the blue base, where both groaned painfully. When Sarge stood up he was faced by Grif "Sarge! Your Alive! Thank God!" The dazed leader of the reds muttered before finally speaking coherently "Grif? What are you doing here? Your dead... but that means... Ah crap berries I'm in hell" Simmons slowly stood up and glanced around "what is with us getting blown across the canyon!?"
Within an alcove deep in the canyon walls sat yet another soldier... if he could be called that "well, now that I'm here, wonder where the base is?" He stood and stared into the opening "guess I don't know until I go out and run around, I hope they have a bathroom" With that... odd incentive the pacifier-er-pedophile-I mean-Pacifist ran out of his little home and into the sun light, little did he know that at the top of the Red base a shadow was watching him through the zoom of a sniper rifle.
Caboose and Tex guarded the now four prisoners as Tucker and Church tried to figure things out... oh boy "So now instead of dealing with four red guys and a robot with a jeep we're up against two guys in black armor with a jeep AND a tank?" Church only stared off into the distance for a moment before turning to his team mate "looks that way, but we still don't know who they are or why they took the tank" Caboose had his bit to put in as well... it amazes most how some one can function so well with out the proper mental capacity "They took her against her will! God knows what their doing to my poor Sheila!" Both Church and Tucker stared at him a moment before he glanced between the two "what?" "Dude, you do know she's nothing more than an AI programmed into the tank right?"
Tucker would have been appalled by the response he got if he didn't know the rookie "She's a nice lady, she likes me" Tucker turned to Church "okay, if he says that again, I'm gonna throw up in my helmet" Sarge stepped up for his few bits in "They also got Lopez! Even now they may be using some sort of, mind control probe to make him into their willing slave!" A gunshot snapped them from their thoughts as each huddled on the edge of the base "now what?" In the distance a purple gleam shot from a figure running up the hill, it was the medic "Hello? Is this the Blue Base?" Before they could answer an explosion sent him flying head first into the wall of their base. Simmons sighed in relief "finally, some one else gets blown up"
Back at the top of the Red Base one of the dark armored soldiers lowered the rocket launcher, below the other was working on the tank, sparks flying off the large chassis every once in a while as Sheila ranted "Do not touch me, repeat, do not touch me, repeat, do not-" with a loud click the voice shut off a moment before the turret on the massive vehicle raised slightly and the AI's voice sounded again "M808B Scorpion Main Battle Tank ready for deployment under new designated user" The 'mechanic' stood up and turned to Lopez, approaching slowly as the robot muttered in Spanish. The one at the top reloaded the rifle and laid it down, gazing over the horizon chuckling.
"Okay, so its agreed, until these assholes are taken out, we're on a truce, we also agree that if Caboose annoys you reds, you have permission to shoot him" The blue rookie stared at Church "why are you so mean to me?" Tucker answered for every one "Because he hates you" Sarge nodded "right, and if Grif or pretty in pink here get on your heels... or in your shorts, you have full authority to do away with either the way you best see fit" Grif and Donut glanced at each other before turning to Sarge "Why do I get shot with the rookie?" Simmons turned and answered "because no one likes you dumb ass" Grif growled "I wasn't asking you kiss ass" "Guys, Guys! We're all friends now, we don't have to fight" Each soldier turned to the purple Medic Church finally asked "uh, who the hell are you anyway?" He blinked and stammered "oh yes, that's rude of me, my name is Duphrain, I'm the Medic by request" "Okay, there's a few things wrong with that sentence, number one, Duphrain? I can barely pronounce that, so from now on, your name is Doc, and second, Medic? That was like a month ago!" Church shouted, he was high strung, and the last thing he needed was some one he couldn't call by name.
The purple medic glanced down then looked up again "Doc? It'll never stick" "Shut it Doc, so Church, what now?" The Ghost turned and stared out into the horizon, thinking "good question..." At the red Base Lopez twitched lightly before speaking... amazingly in English "Awaiting commands from designated users Syn and Raging Hobo" The two black armored soldiers could only smile at their work... until one turned to the other "Why the hell did you choose Raging Hobo for a name?" A male voice, deep yet oddly comforting. The other turned "You ever try taking a hobo's sandwich? I've never ran so damn fast in my life" Syn nodded a bit before turning to the robot "so... what do we do with the tank and the robot?" The Raging Hobo stared and turned to Syn "why are we even here? Weren't we supposed to be stationed on some ship and shooting aliens?" Syn scoffed "what are you kidding? Fucking around with morons like this is much more entertaining"
