RED Training Day
Chapter Two
It's Called a Zoo!
The Soldier drove down an old dirt rode. The countryside was littered with farms, horses, crops, and worst of all...freaking cows. He despised cows. He always had ever since he had that nightmare. He dreamed he was wandering around the RED fort alone. He turned around every corner looking for his team. When he finally gave up he turned back around and he saw it, right there blocking his path was a cardboard cow. The Soldier turned to go the other way. When he looked down the hall he saw the same cow. The conflict went on for what seemed an eternity before he woke up, dripping with sweat. The memory has haunted him since.
After driving thirty-eight miles through cow infested countrysides, the Soldier reached his destination. He looked up at the sign hanging over the entryway.
TEAM FORTRESS INDUSTRIES
RELIABLE EXCAVATION DEMOLITION
RECRUITMENT CENTER
Just below the was a nailed on banner that read,
Welcome This Years RED Recruits!
The Soldier groaned at all this over-dramatic welcome fest. He pulled into the main parking area, next to the bus. The moment he stepped out of his truck he saw them.
The recruits...
He looked over the crowd, and he wished he had called in sick.
A momma's boy Scout was receiving millions of goodbye hugs and kisses from his mother. A young looking Engineer who seemed to be very confused about how a turret works. A pair of twin Snipers who couldn't tell which end of the sniper was which. A Medic who threw up at the sight of the Scout's bleeding paper cut. And lastly, a buff, tough looking man was standing at ease. The Soldier was almost happy to be training a fellow Soldier.
Almost.
He would have been happy if the recruit wasn't wearing a, Make Love Not War, shirt.
"You have got to be kidding me." He mumbled to himself. "These are all a bunch of sissy maggots!" The Soldier sighed a picked up a clipboard.
He looked over the recruits names. "Alright let's see...Jacob McBonk?" The Soldier scanned the crowd.
"That's me sir!" The young Scout said. The Soldier watched the pathetic boy try to pick up and carry his bags to the bus. When he got there he dropped his bags and collapsed to the ground, trying to catch his breath.
"Oh god..." The Soldier groaned. "Let's see, next is...Nate and Bate Reddot?"
The twin Snipers raced over to him and spoke in unison. "At your service sir! We are ready to fight for RED!"
"Oh I bet." The Soldier said sarcastically. "Okay...Ulgo Uber?"
The Medic waved from the garbage can he was busy vomiting into.
"You better stop in the next three minutes or you are staying here!" The Soldier yelled to the Medic. "Next up...Blake Cogngear?"
The young Engineer sat up and walked over to the bus.
"Silent one huh? Good..." The Soldier mumbled. He looked at the last name on the list. He had enough maggots as it is. Did he really have to bring this one?
He sighed and read the name. "Harrison Peace?"
The hippie Soldier pranced over to the bus. "Hello there. I must say it is a beautiful day. A time of peace is among us."
Once he got everyone on the bus he hopped in the driver's seat and started the engine. He turned around and faced the group.
"Okay these are my rules. Don't talk, don't look at me in the eye, and if you can..." The Soldier lowered his voice. "Try not to breathe..." And with that he began the long drive to the training camp.
