Note: I don't own G.I. Joe; they belong to Larry Hama, Hasbro, and other productions, not me. This is a G.I. Joe: Renegades story. Warning: This story contains fluff; known green shirts acting stupid (mostly Tunnel Rat), and some truth & dares that make you laugh too loud at 12 in the morning. I did warn you. Reminder: If I have any punctuation or spelling errors, tell me where they are so I can fix it.
It was 9:30 by the time Scarlett turned off the radio. She was about to close her eyes and fall asleep for the rest of the night until she felt a soft tape on her left shoulder. She turned her head to find Duke standing besides her.
"Sorry to interrupt, the men and I wonder if you like to play a game with us; it's all we can do to make up for the incident earlier." He said. Scarlett got out of her seat and look at the green shirts grouped together on the floor in the back of the Coyote; everyone was looking at her hoping for an answer. The redhead immediately took the offer. "Oh alright, but if it's a card game you better give Tunnel Rat a pat down for extra cards." she said giving a serious glare at the cheating medic. She joined her friends and began to sit down with them.
"What are we playing: Poker, Go Fish, Texas Hold'em?" Scarlett asked the fellow green shirts. "No need to worry Red, it's not any card game were going to play." Ripcord answered. Scarlett had no idea the game she was actually going to play wasn't what she would expect the men to play.
"Well what is it then?" She asked her friends for an exact answer. "Does the name Truth or Dare mean anything to you?" Roadblock answered. Scarlett was surprised the men wanted to play that childhood game.
"Wait, are you guys that serious, that's a game any boy would regret playing with anyone." She said in response. "Sorry, but it's the only game we could think of that's impossible to cheat at." Ripcord said giving Tunnel Rat an evil glare. Tunnel Rat grudgingly defended himself. "You guys still won't let that go." Everyone soon ignored his complaints and started the game.
"Alright men, who wants to go first?" Duke asked. Ripcord slightly raised his hand.
"I would like to start it, if it's okay with you guys." He said. His friends gave him the okay to do it. Ripcord started to pick his victim. "Tunnel Rat, Truth or Dare?" He asked the now dumbfounded field medic.
"Why me, I didn't do anything." Tunnel Rat said to defend himself again. "Because you cheated the last games we played; now pick which one you want to do T-Rat." Ripcord demanded.
"Alright then, dare but don't make it stupid." Tunnel Rat responded in an aggravated mood.
"I dare you to take a bath outside in the lake." Ripcord gave out the dare. Scarlett started to laugh a little.
"I don't think he'll do it Private, he's too chicken." Everyone else also laughed. Tunnel Rat didn't like the dare.
"So what, I don't have to do it." That was the medic's response. "You didn't let me tell you the cache to this dare." Ripcord said. Tunnel Rat didn't like the sound of Ripcord's voice when he said it.
"The cache is, if you don't you have to take a bath every day of the rest of the month." Now this had gone too far. Tunnel Rat's face was priceless at the moment. His mouth was hanging wide open. Everybody else was laughing too hard to even talk.
"I'll do it, but this is the last time any of you dare me to take a bath." He began to take off his clothes, leaving on his boxers, and left the truck for the lake outside. But not before Ripcord handed him a bar of soap.
"Make sure to rinse and repeat." The mutant soldier told his friend. Tunnel Rat slowly went into the lake. Everyone watched out the back of the Coyote. From their point of view it looks like Tunnel Rat was crying.
"Hah, that skinny chicken is fussing over a bath." Roadblock said. Scarlett was now laughing the loudest; it seems the first part of the plan was starting out well. Five minutes later, Tunnel Rat walked back in the Coyote with the rest of his clothes back on. He was squeaky clean, and his man-fung was gone. "That was the worst thing that ever happened in my life." the medic complained some more.
"At least it's better than twenty bucks." one of the soldiers said. Everyone returned to their game, it was now Scarlett's turn to give out the challenge.
"Duke, Truth or Dare?" She asked the blonde soldier. Duke quickly responded. "Truth." was his answer.
At first it was hard for Scarlett to think up a question but quickly thought up one.
"Do you have a celebrity crush?" That was her question. To Scarlett it sounded lame to ask anyone, including a male that question, but it was all she could think of.
"Does Snooki Polizzi count?" Duke said. The men began to laugh, except Scarlett.
"Wait, you mean that midget from Jersey Shore, she a freak." Turns out, Scarlett wasn't a big fan.
"Hey, she's fun size and tan." Duke defended. Tunnel Rat tried his best to hold in his laugh but couldn't. His laughter echoed through the truck that Scarlett swears that Snake Eyes could hear it outside.
"You seriously need to get a new celebrity crush, and soon." Roadblock suggested. Duke's face was blushing with both anger and embarrassment. It was now Roadblocks turn to give someone else the challenge.
"Ripcord, Truth or Dare?" The Joes cook and mechanic asked the young Patient X.
"Dare, but don't make it a painful one." Ripcord answered.
"I dare you to try to aggravate Snake Eyes by imitating him, If you don't you have to be quiet for the rest of the month." Turns out this dare was part of Tunnel Rat's plan from earlier. Scarlett sort of didn't like the dare given to Ripcord.
"Wait, we don't know where Snake Eyes is, how am I going to do this without him." Ripcord asked.
"Then try to imitate the ninja outside until he see's you." Tunnel Rat gave a suggestion.
"That doesn't sound like a good idea, I wouldn't agitate Snake Eyes, and he doesn't like to make fun of, or interrupted." No one didn't listen to the advice that Scarlett's gave to the young Private. Ripcord quickly found a ski mask and put it on his head. He went outside the truck and picked up a large stick in his hand.
"Hey look at me I'm a ninja mime, what a contradiction." Ripcord shouted out loud like that one Starburst commercial while waving the large stick like a sword. Everyone watching outside the back doors of the truck heard a soft noise coming from a tree besides the Coyote. The rest of green shirts besides Ripcord knew it was probably Snake Eyes climbing in trees.
"Keep it up Rip, I think its working." Duke shouted at the dark skinned Private.
"Do I look like a ninja or one of those guys from Daft Punk?" Ripcord started to beat box and act like a disc jockey in attempts to annoy Snake Eye. The ninja quickly came out of the tree and was standing on top of the roof of the Coyote. Scarlett knew her friend must be getting really mad by now. Ripcord then started dancing like an idiot.
"Everybody was kung-fu fighting, everybody was fast as lightning." the young soldier began to sing using the stick still in his hand like a microphone and a ninja sword at the same time. Everyone started to laugh except Snake Eyes. The ninja quickly jumped off the roof and began to go after Ripcord with one of his swords. The young mutant, knowing what was happening began to run for his life.
"Ahhh, would somebody stop this crazy mother-" no one heard the rest as Ripcord ran into the woods to avoid the angry ninja. Scarlett couldn't help but laugh at what was happening. "Poor Snake Eyes, he was verbally abuse by a smart mouth gelatin monster." Tunnel Rat joked. More screams were heard coming out of the woods. It sounded like a horror movie scream than a normal scream. Snake Eyes came back to the truck with Ripcord. There was a cloth over Ripcord's mouth. Everyone began to laugh at Ripcord, except Snake Eyes who went into the Coyote quietly. Ripcord immediately untied the cloth as everybody else went back into the truck.
"Never let me imitate any ninja again." Ripcord said to Roadblock. As everybody sat back down in their spots with Snake Eyes noe meditating in one of the seats upfront, it was now Duke's turn to give out the repeated challenge.
"Roadblock, Truth or Dare?" Duke asked the larger man.
"Truth, I don't want to take chances on a dare." Roadblock answered.
"Have you ever played a prank on your Grandma?" Duke asked. The large man didn't hesitate to answer.
"Heavy Duty and I once replace one of Grandma's pie fillings." Roadblock told his friends. Tunnel Rat out of curiosity, asked what the pie filling was.
"What did you two replace it with?" Roadblock whispered his answer. To Tunnel rat's surprise, he wish he didn't know.
"Sister Mary Francis, why would you do that?" From the sounds of Tunnel Rat's response, no one else didn't want to know the answer; it was soon the field medic's turn to give the common challenge to the last victim, Scarlett.
"Scarlett, Truth or Dare." Behind his back, Tunnel Rat crossed his fingers hoping she would choose dare.
"Dare, Tunnel Rat." At that moment, Tunnel Rat was grinning evilly. The other men were also smiling. Tunnel Rat quickly gave the dare his friends been waiting for.
"I dare you to kiss Snake Eyes." Scarlett green eyes went wide open; she couldn't believe what she heard. Things were about to get interesting.
Hahaha, I laughed while writing this chapter. I wonder if Scarlett will kiss Snake Eyes, or if Snake Eyes would let her. Read and Reply please. Next chapter coming us soon.
