Wahoo! I finally got around to writing another chapter. I've given up on a Wash chapter for the time being. It's just not happening any time soon. If you have any requests just review and tell, or you can review without a request, it really doesn't matter.

I don't own RedvsBlue. RoosterTeeth does.

This chapter if for ColdWillo who requested I write Grif. ^_^


Grif sighed.

He should be happy. Sure Church had yelled at them and wanted to sacrifice their lives, but Wash had prevented Carolina from shooting Tucker and dragging them on some crazy suicide mission. For them that was pretty good.

However the new addition to blue team was kind of making their life hell.

Blue team, well really Wash, had snuck into to their base and stolen everything they had. Even their stupid flag. As if they needed any reminder of the last time somebody had stolen one.

It wasn't fair that blue team got another freelancer on their team! Not to mention a freelancer who did stuff for free!

Wash seemed different now, and Grif was really starting to wonder if maybe the ex-freelancer was bi-polar.

The only other freelancer they had known was Tex, a kick-ass, ball-busting, bitch who might have made them do gay stuff if she'd ever called in that stupid favor. So it wasn't much of a surprise that the only other freelancer they met was a complete asshole.

What was surprising was that he didn't kill them after they messed up their attack against that Meta guy. He just made them come with him on some crazy mission, and changed his rank to some stupid non-existing one.

Though that was more Sarge's fault.

The mission was stupid, they mostly just stood around and talked while Wash and Church did stuff. Though they did have to protect Caboose while he drove some robot thing to safety. Even though the moron did drive off a cliff.

They didn't see Wash after that. Grif figured he'd gotten a medal or died or something, and the best they could do was just relax and do nothing. It's what Wash would have wanted.

And they would have continued doing nothing. If only Donut didn't show up with his stupid sand mission. Granted he did volunteer to go find Tucker, but he really figured Simmons would do the work for him like he always did. Kiss-ass.

Figures that the maroon soldier would pick that time to rebel and leave him to go on the stupid mission with Sarge and Caboose while he relaxed with Donut and Lopez.

So they went out and saved Tucker from whatever the hell he had gotten himself into and they even brought Church back. Everything seemed great. Things could finally get back to normal.

Then Wash had to return and go all psycho on them, killing Donut and Lopez, and taking Simmons and Doc prisoner.

Figures. They couldn't catch a freaking break!

It wasn't so bad. He did get to hit the asshole with a car.

Of course he didn't even scratch the psycho freelancer, and the bigger, scarier freelancer totaled it, but then again, they never did have much luck with it came to that car.

Thankfully Church went all laser-face on the pair of Spartans, and they managed to escape. Even if they did kind of break the blue, all in all it was a win, well by their standards.

The journey home was uneventful though he did manage to get Simmons to walk into a minefield when they got back.

The orange soldier was hoping that now that they had their teams all together again, they could finally stop going on crazy, stupid missions.

Then of course the blues had to go on yet another crazy mission, and as they apparently had no lives outside of the blues, they followed them to some weird freelancer base where he had his balls brutally bashed, repeatedly, by the same black armored bitch that had terrorized them back in Bloodgulch.

Obviously there were no nice freelancers.

Shit really hit the fan when they found out that they were just guanine pigs for Project Freelancer. It wasn't really a surprise to Grif. He always knew command was full of shit, but it was still kind of disheartening to know he was drafted for a fake war.

So when he found out that the blues, well one of them and his crazy, bitch girlfriend, had gone out on yet another crazy mission and gotten hurt, he honestly didn't want to go. However, Sarge's speech was pretty inspiring and it's not like they had anything better to do.

So that's how he ended up getting stuck flying a Pelican to Sidewinder. Except for the crashing part, it was pretty awesome.

Luckily the bigger, scarier, freelancer broke their fall. Even luckier was that Wash had calmed down a bit and didn't kill them on sight.

Then of course, since nobody ever seemed to stay dead, the Meta had to come back and nearly drag him off a cliff, but he got a kick-ass new weapon out of it, so it wasn't so bad.

Then the stupid blue had to go and get himself stuck in the capture unit leaving an open spot on blue team, and unfortunately there was only one person available.

Wash.

Grif wasn't entirely sure if they could trust the former freelancer after all he'd done, but Wash seemed to be just as messed as they were, and he did help them out with that tow cable. Besides, it's not like they could stop him.

The orange Spartan hoped that the new blue leader would be way better than the last one.

Turns out he was exactly the same.

He got his team into a dangerous situation not even a week later. Some other female freelancer had him completely whipped, and for some reason he took them along too. It seemed the blues couldn't go on any mission with them. Cockbites.

Either way they ended up going on yet another mission to rescue Church. Apparently they couldn't do anything with him either.

The mission was long and annoying, and Grif kept going back and forth on whether Wash was on their side or not.

They were a team, but then he betrayed them. Meta betrayed him and he helped them fight him off. Crazy freelancer chick shows up, and suddenly he's their enemy again. Carolina leaves and he's a bit less of an ass.

'What was this dude's deal?' Grif thought. 'He should just pick something and stick with it!'

To be honest, the orange Spartan wasn't sure about any part of this mission. He was a resident slacker. Why was he trying so hard now for a mission that he wasn't even sure he believed in? Hell, even Sarge thought the plan was stupid.

Then Church and Carolina called them for a meeting, and Grif started wondering if he was wondering if the right blue was on their side.

Church wanted them to go on a suicide mission just so they could get to the Director, and said they should do it because they owed him!

'If anything that dick owed them!' Grif thought.

He turned around to walk away, and he suspected everyone was about to do the same. That's when Carolina pointed a gun at Tucker.

It's also when Wash pointed a gun at Carolina and told her he wouldn't let her hurt them.

Maybe all freelancers weren't complete asshole. It was more than Church ever did.

Grif sighed.

Wash was definitely on their side, but he was a blue, and he was going to help Tucker and Caboose "fight" or whatever they did in this made-up war. However there was one thing that he found funny, I only a little bit.

"I just want to let everyone know that I suck," he heard Simmons say, and he couldn't help but think that that really was the greatest surrender of all time.
