Previously One Red vs. Blue After.
"When I became a freelancer the Director told me Church was the Alpha A.I. He told me that I couldn't date him because of this. I denied then he told me that if I didn't he would kill me and reprogram Church. I had no other choice then to agree so I ended it. I love him Tucker. I really do.." Tex said crying.
"Tex the director is in jail. Why not tell Church you love him?" Tucker said knowing Church loved her.
"We shouldn't do this." Lisa said back into the wall of the hallway.
"Why?" Church said kissing her neck.
"Never mind." They both made it into his apartment. He pushed her against the wall the split the kitchen and the living room.
And Now The Next Chapter Of Red vs. Blue After.
Catcher.
She pulled up to the apartment complex and rushed out. She grabbed her car keys and rushed inside. She ran over to Church door and turned the knob to open it. She opened it catching Church kissing her up against the wall and one hand in Lisa's shirt. Tex stopped as Church and Lisa did also. Tex turned away and started running off.
"Tex wait!" Church yelled running after her. She started crying as she rushed out.
"Tex! Please wait!" He caught up to her and grabbed her arm and she turned at Church.
"What the hell do you want?" Tex demanded crying.
"Tex what are you doing here?"
"Doesn't matter anymore and never will."
"No. Tex please tell me." He said following her out to her car.
"No. Why are you making out with that little tramp anyway!?" She yelled looking at him.
"I don't know. Tex I love you."
"Your only saying that."
"No. I mean it. Tex I was only trying to get my mind off you."
"I can't see how it didn't work."
"Tex every kiss burned and reminded me of you." Tex stopped and slowed her crying.
"I came to talk to you."
"Why?"
"I came to tell you….. I love you." Tex said plainly.
"I love you to." He said then kissing her. She kissed him back putting her hands behind his head. He had one hand around her waist and the other on her neck as they continued to kiss. Lisa ran out in disgust and ran to her car stomping her feet. She squealed her tires and drove off. They both looked then started kissing again.
Wash.
"We're almost at earth." Amy said sitting in the pilots seat again.
"Good." Wash responded reading a book.
"You're a very serous man aren't you?" He looked up to her above his reading glasses.
"Yes."
"I'm getting a strange feeling about earth." She said looking at him.
"Doesn't sound good." He continued reading a few more minutes.
"We're here." She said as she took control of the ship and landed it. The back then opened and Wash headed at as she followed. A UNSC commander then walked up to them wearing Brow shoes, shirt, pants, and hat. His hat and shirt both had the UNSC logo on them with some badges.
"Hello David. Hello Mrs. Whitefield." He greeted bowing slightly at them.
"Hello commander Johnson." Wash greeted bowing slightly also. She then did the same.
"Come with me." Johnson replied leading them to a different room. They followed.
"So what have you found out?" Wash asked.
"Not much, other then we sent some agents out to the mental hospital and found out that every worker in the facility was murdered and all the patients was let free. Plus Maine's old armor was reported missing."
"Well he has his old armor and all the freelancer's abilities that you guys never removed."
"So this is our fault is it David?"
"No. But you guys should have removed those."
"I agree." Amy agreed going against orders not to speak. Johnson only looked back at her slightly. They then entered a room with tons of high Tec radar and tracking systems.
"They implant a tracker in everyone of their patients. Even you Wash when you stayed there. We've been trying to track him, but someone is jamming our signal."
"Not someone."
"What do you mean Wash?"
"It was North's ability. He could jam radar, tracking devices and more." Wash explained.
"So he's blocking it?" Amy asked looking at one of the high Tec trackers.
"Yes. He also has Tex's invisibility, York's healing device, Wyoming's time control, and my partial invincibility."
"That explains everything." Johnson replied shocked.
"Now if you need anything I'll be in my bunk." Wash said walking out. She then started following him.
"Wait!"
"What?"
"How did you figure all that out?"
"It comes to me naturally."
"Nice job. Theirs just one more thing."
"What?"
"They're having us share a room."
"Okay." Wash said walking into the room to find his luggage already inside. He then started unpacking as she did the same.
"You like being in your armor don't you." She said glaring at his helmet.
"I'm more comfortable that way." He replied uncomfortable.
"You spend a lot of time working."
"Don't remind me."
"Sorry."
"Its okay."
"What time is it?" Wash asked looking around.
"Five am." She replied.
"We should be getting to sleep."
"Yes, we should." After a few minutes of unpacking Wash started removing his armor to sleep. She started changing in the rooms bathroom with the door opened.
"I forgot how loose it feels without this armor on." He said as her shirt flew out.
"I bet you did." She said still changing. He only looked at the shirt as her pants then flew out.
"Are you worried about Maine escaping?" She asked him.
"What? Yes." He said snapping out of thought as he stopped staring at her clothes on the floor.
"You seem deep in thought." She said taking of her Black bra off and threw it out.
"Ahem.. Yeah." Wash said spotting the bra. She then started getting dressed. She then walked out dressed and grabbed her dirt clothes and put them in the laundry shoot. Wash checked her out as she did so.
"I don't get why our commanders would be so dumb as to give you agents abilities like, radar disabler or time pause. They should know that technology as that is not useable."
"What?" He asked snapping out of thought again.
"Your weren't listening were you?" She said putting her hands on her hips.
"Bad habit."
"You always listen to the commanders."
"Yes, but I was raised to listen to my superiors."
"And?"
"I was just distracted."
"With what? Incase you haven't noticed your just sitting on the edge of your bed." She pointed out.
"Very good point Mrs. Whitefield." Wash said teasing.
"You can call me Amy."
"I know."
"I would prefer that anyway."
"Did I upset you Mrs. Whitefield?"
"Stop calling me that. We've talked enough to drop that."
"I'm sorry Mrs. White."
"Now your not even calling me by my full last name."
"I know." He said getting up and circling her and smiling. She stood not following him with her eyes only standing with her hands on her hips, smiling, and rolling her eyes in her head.
"Are you flirting with me David?"
"Maybe."
"Oh really?" She said flirty.
"Yeah." He said stopping in front of her.
"Unusual for you."
"You think so?"
"I've never heard you flirt with anyone."
"Your right. It is unusual for me. Does it matter?" He asked getting closer to her.
"not really." She said as he cornered her by the laundry shoot.
"I'm just curious why your flirting with me."
"You talk to much." He said then kissing her. She kissed him slightly back only to sneak away.
"We can't do this." She said looking at him as he turned to her.
"Now why is that?"
"You're a freelancer I'm a receptionist."
"So?"
"I can't. I'm sorry." She said walking at of the room wiping her lips. He only stood there for a moment.
"Damn it!" He yelled kicking his suitcase.
Morning After.
Church woke up to sound of birds chirping outside his window and the sound of cars leaving the caring lot. He moaned slightly turning over to his left to see out the window. Instead he saw the clock which said, six am. He then remember about a job interview he had in and hour and a half. He rubbed his eye slightly then sat up onto his back noticing Tex who was sleeping on her left side facing away from him. He smiled kissing her on the head and getting up. She moaned as he got up and turned over still asleep. He looked at her smiling then remembered about the ring he'd found. Even though it was a long time ago and she'd never knew he wanted to tell her even though it had come to pass. He got ready for his interview then walked into the kitchen, grabbed a notepad, a pencil and wrote her a not so she'd know where he'd went when she got up. He looked at her then finished writing the note. Church then walked up and bent down and kissed her head again then leaving.
Tex woke up at eight am quietly laying on her left side as the light hit her face through the window.
"Shut the window Church." She said covering her head with a pillow. She then sat up a few seconds later noticing him being gone.
"What the hell?" She said getting up and getting dressed quickly. She then looked at his alarm clock.
"Eight am?" Tex started rubbing her eyes and squinting.
"I really slept in." While walking into the kitchen she noticed his note. She grabbed it and started reading.
Dear, Tex.
Hey I had to go for a job interview. This sucks. Anyway, morning. Feel free to stay at my apartment if you want just don't steal anything. And I'll be calling you later. One more thing don't read my journal, cause that would be… Rude. Anyway I love you and I miss you.
Love,
Leonard.
Tex smiled after reading it walking over to the kitchen counter. She then noticed his box sitting next to the fridge. Tex looked at it curiously then picked it up. She carried it into his bedroom and sat it down next her as she sat down on the bed. Tex then opened it up to see pictures, books, and the jewelry case. She looked at it with her head tilted slightly then grabbing it. Tex opened it confused.
"Why in the hell does Church have an engagement ring?" She then looked at his journal on the ground. Tex remembers it being knocked off the night before. Tex then picked it up and looked around then opened it. She then read the latest entry.
Well I'm back on earth. I can't believe I found this old journal. I hate it when I talk randomly in this dumb old thing, but whatever. I found an old ring I was going to propose to Tex with I bought before we'd been shipped off. I miss her so much. I wish I'd asked her before we'd been shipped off. Things might be different right now. We might be married and living together, but I was a fucking chicken and never asked. I have a date with a dumb taxi driver tonight. I'm only going to get my mind off Tex. I hope she comes back.
And to sum it all up. I hate taxi drivers, Tex is hot and Caboose is gone.
"I said don't not do." Church voice said snapping her out of thought causing her to jump.
"Church." Tex said closing the book. He then walked over.
"Tex why are you reading my journal?"
"I found this ring and was hoping it would tell me what you had it for."
"Did it?"
"Yes."
"I thought so. Tex I found it yesterday. I was going to tell you when I got back."
"I'm sorry." Tex said handing him the journal. He grabbed it gently.
"Its okay. I can't stay mad at you anyway." He said sitting next her.
"You know I should be going." She then stood up.
"Wait. I need to talk to you." She then sat back down next to him.
"What?"
"I love you. I want you to know I wish I'd asked you back then. I think about what might have happened if I had everyday."
"And now I will to." She said surprising him.
"You will?" He said surprised as she glared at him.
"Yeah. I lo-" They then heard a loud crash that shook the apartment. Tex grabbed Church's arm and he swung forward not falling.
"What the hell was that?" Tex asked quietly.
"I don't know." He said nervously back. It then shook again the crash being louder.
"Church something is coming. most likely for you." They then heard footsteps. As the door then flew off and out the living room window.
"Tex. Run.."
"What?!"
"Get out of here!" He said leading her to a different exit then the front door.
"Tex I love you."
"Church I'm not leaving."
"Yes you are. If you love me you'll leave. Now go get help."
"I will." Tex kissed him then ran out to the hallway and started running toward the door. She heard a loud hiss and looked behind herself to see agent Maine running toward her full speed. She started running at full speed.
"Please please." She said running into the landlord's empty office barely being missed by a pipe. She heard him trying to bust through the door as she searched for a knife or gun in the office. She found only a pocket knife by the time he'd almost broke in. She hid by the wall next to the door breathing heavy. The banging on the door suddenly stopped cause silence. Tex knew silence in a battle situation was never a good sign so she kept her guard up. She suddenly heard a crashing noise and saw that he'd pushed a pipe through the wall and was swinging it at her. She ducked quickly dodging the pipe as she dropped her knife. He then pulled the wall apart and walked through the dust and debris. She grabbed her knife even though she knew it would do nothing and attempted to slice him, but he grabbed her arm twisting and braking it.
"Ahhhh!!!" She screamed grabbing her arm still in his grip. He ignored her pain letting go of her arm. She gripped it and looked up at him he looked completely un scratched and unhurt. He then grabbed her by her unhurt arm and forced her to follow him as she fought reluctantly.
"Let me go!" She screamed as Church ran out of his apartment seeing them both.
"TEX!!!" He screamed running as she turned to see him.
"CHURCH!!" She screamed as Maine turned around then disappearing.
"TEX!!! Damn it!!" He screamed looking at the damage. He then kicked some broken down wall.
"Damn it!!! Fuck you Maine!!!"
