I did another bloodgulcher. Caboose was hard to write for at the same time he was easy to, so if you think he was too OOC or if I didn't write him just write, please tell me. As always I own nothing, review the story or I will get you.

They were friends.

Why did Agent Washing-Tub seem so surprised when he said they were friends? It wasn't hard to figure out. It wasn't like a math problem, it was obvious.

They were best friends, well second best friends. Church was back now, so now Agent Washington was like his second best friend, but that didn't make him any less of a friend.

Caboose wasn't sure what to think about Agent Washington at first. To be honest, thinking hurt and he tried not to do that too much. Church usually did the thinking for him.

The grey man had just come to tell him that someone from his family had died, but then it turned out that no one died, and he just went with the nice soldier from command to go find Church.

Agent Washington was a very boring travel companion he kept asking questions like, "You're sure this guy can help? Were you dropped on your head as a baby?" But he was nice and didn't hit him and tell him to shut up like Church would have.

Then he had invited Caboose's all-time best friend Church to come on the mission! They went to go find Tex!

However, Agent Washington kept talking to Shelia like she was a computer. Nobody talked to his girlfriend…girl who was a friend…that way! Agent Washington seemed to understand later though and referred to her as a she after that.

Caboose soon realized that Agent Washington could be scary, like the mean lady in black armor that would always beat them up. He shot that purple lady in the head just for shooting somebody in the back which everybody knows is not that big of a deal and sometimes happens, but it's nobody's fault.

Agent Washington made up for it because he gave Caboose a shiny green thing! It was kinda like the Omega AI thing that had been in his head that one time. Except this was didn't do mean things to people, he just talked a lot.

The present was short lived. The scary white monster thing shot Caboose and took his shiny green friend away. Caboose was alright though. Agent Washington healed his wounds and made him all better using his magic medicine machine.

Agent Washington soon found more of caboose's friends and took them on the adventure too. He even listened to Caboose's ideas!

Then he took Church and gave Caboose something that he called the Epsilon Unit and told him to take it far, far away from her. He and Church would go fight the scary white monster, and bring down the evil Project Freelancer.

The EMP had gone off and Caboose had made it back to base, ready to build his new super best friend, just like Agent Washington said he should.

When he needed help, he knew just who to call. Agent Washington.

After the blast went off, he didn't think about Agent Washington. He was probably given a shiny medal or something. Maybe a party. After all, he took down that evil place that tortured his best friend. Command had to give him something for that.

And it was all because they helped him. Agent Washington would surely help them get Tucker out of the sand in return. Maybe he could even help put together the new Church.

Caboose was a little sad for his friend. He may have had a lot more metal in his life now, but he didn't get a shiny new base. He said that he wouldn't even be able to come help with Tucker or the sand and maybe share the new base with Caboose.

But that was okay. Caboose was sure that wherever Agent Washington was now. It was a better place.

Caboose had finally gotten everything fixed when Tucker and them started talking about Agent Washington.

Caboose just didn't understand why he would be working with the scary monster to kidnap Church, or why he would shoot Admiral Butter Biscuit. They were friends after all.

After hearing the recovery beacon, Caboose had joined the other to go save Church and Tex. They ended up saving Agent Washington instead. He was going to save Tex from the prison if Church came with him. "That was nice of him." Caboose guessed.

Then the evil monster had attacked again. Agent Washington had helped save them. He gave Sarge the tow hook, and the monster had gone over the cliff. It was great.

But then, it wasn't so great. Church had gone into the unit, and now he was stuck in there. Caboose had been mourning. His best friend was dead. Gone forever. And this time, there was no way to get him back.

Caboose didn't even think about Agent Washington until he heard Doc screeching, "You shouldn't be getting up. I don't care if you have a healing unit, sit down and rest. You took quite an ass kicking."

Caboose looked over at the grey soldier. He was alive after all. That mean Sargent guy had said that he wouldn't make it.

Suddenly Caboose had a great idea. He had to ask Tucker about a million times, but the teal soldier had finally said yes. Agent Washington could be they're new Church.

Agent Washington had seemed wary about the offer. Why the hell would they allow him on the team. But dealing with these morons was better than going to jail. So he agreed.

He had done a pretty good job, not that he go to do much before Carolina showed up and seized control over both teams.

However he had been nice. He had let Caboose call him Church, let him sing Happy Birthday to him, and all around use him to replace Church as Caboose's best friend.

It wasn't his fault that he followed the mean lady.

Caboose didn't understand why Agent Washington didn't think they were friends. Maybe it was because he was kinda mean again. But that was okay. Agent Washington had gone mean before. Yet he still helped them when they needed him. He was just going through the cycle again.

Agent Washington, despite his mistakes and sometimes meanness, was still their friend. He would always be their friend.

And Caboose could not understand why the man didn't see it himself.
