Authors Note: So this basically I my head canon on why Grif joined the army.

Grif Siblings

Grif loved Hawaii. It was almost made for someone lazy like him. Beautiful beaches, palms and stuff that just asked you to lay down and do nothing but sleep and drink and maybe lazily walk along the beach. Grif could go on like this and tell you how great and wonderful Hawaii was. Not that it wasn't true. But of course, Grif wasn't lucky enough to live in that part of Hawaii. He lived on the edge of a city since he could think. Pretty much the ghetto out there. His family wasn't that much better, really. Grif didn't know his father. He left them when Grifs eight year younger sister was born. Her father wasn't around either. Well, how should he, after all his mother didn't even know who knocked her up with Kaikaina.

Their mother worked in the circus as the fat and bearded lady. Probably the shittiest job ever with small payment but hey, it was a job at least. But in this times and with the war between human and aliens hardly anyone was interested in the circus.

So Grif was stuck with doing all kind of shit to make sure he and his sister got through since he can think. He started to soon envy the lazy people at the beach a lot.

When he's ten or maybe eleven he thought that it would be so much easier if he left too. Even if he had no where to go. It would be about as shitty as what he called home. And looking out only for himself would be so much easier than also take care of an infant. And so he envied the lazy people at the beach even more.

But he didn't leave. Because he loves his little sister.

Sure, he always knew his mother and he weren't smart. But Kaikaina was more than simply dim witted. That was very obvious. But it didn't matter, he still loved his sister a lot. So he didn't really ask for the how and why and stuff when she one day came and held a paper under his nose with the words: "Write your name on in it, bro!"

Kaikaina was twelve at that time and Grif only turned twentyone a few days ago. He also had been sleeping when his sister jumped on his old makeshift bed.

"Oh god, what the fuck Kai..." Grif groaned and shoved her hand with the paper away. His sister sat on his stomach and when he was looking closer he saw that she had a lollipop in her mouth. He squinted his eyes at her. "Where you got that from?" he asked her.

"Meh." Kaikaina was little girl lacking intelligence in many ways but at least she knew her way around. "There was a can-man at the city and... Dunno. He was nice. Asking after a dad but I told him I just have a mommy that had a beard", explained Kaikaina and got down from her brother to sit next to him. Grif groaned and sat up. Yeah, great. "I don't know what he wanted. He gave me the paper and bought me a lollipop for promising to show you. He said he needs men."

Okay so Grif knew that Kai didn't get most thing you told her right. But her last statement alarmed him and he snatched the paper from her hand. It turned out not to be an advertisement for a gay club or something he expected. It was a form for joining the army.

Honestly, Grif had been tempted to throw it away right at that moment. But in the end he read it instead. Not that he was interested in the army but hey, it was a good way to get money. And if they were desperate enough to look for people that way even he might have a chance to join.

After a night of laying awake he decided to go for it. Kai would be fine with their mom and some money. And hey, if he's lucky he's bad enough to end somewhere at the asscrack of nowhere where no one cares what's going in and a kiss ass that does all the work for him.

So Grif signed up because hey, he's not exactly the good kind of guy but still, he loves his little sister.
