Chapter 4
As they walked over to Doc and Amber Wash cast a sideward glance at Qrow who was giving the Reds and Blues his own sidewards glance, he was defiantly suspicious of them and if he was honest Wash didn't blame him for being suspicious, they were literally an unknown entity.
''Hey Wash who's this guy?'' Tucker whispered.
''That's Qrow Branwen'' whispered Wash.
''Wait that guy you were telling us about?'' Tucker asked.
''Yeah, it's that guy'' replied Wash before turning his attention to Doc and Amber as they reached them ''are you alright miss?''
''I am thanks to all of you'' Amber replied.
''Ah it was nothin' ma'am'' said Sarge.
''You did good work Doc'' said Wash.
''No I didn't Wash'' said Doc.
''What do you mean?'' Wash asked.
''This is what I mean'' replied Doc, holding up the arrow which was lodged in Amber back only it was missing its head.
''God damn it'' Wash said with a frustrated sigh.
''Yeah, I'm sorry Wash I tried my best'' said Doc.
''Wait what's the problem can't you just pull it out?'' Tucker asked.
''I could, but that could risk crippling or possibly killing her if I do it wrong, so it will have to be surgically removed, currently it'll cause pain where its located but it won't do anything else so its fine where it currently is'' explained Doc before looking at Amber ''I'm sorry it was the best I could do''
''Its alright, if it wasn't for you ten and Qrow I would have died'' said Amber.
''How did you know there was ten of us? only eight of us here'' asked Simmons.
''Yeah but you guys have started to get noticed words starting to spread about you guys, so people know that there are ten of you in total'' said Qrow taking a swig from his flask.
''And who the fuck are you?'' Grif asked having not heard Wash and Tuckers conversation.
''Qrow Branwen and I assume your the Reds and Blues'' said Qrow dully.
''Yeah we are'' said Wash ''we should introduce ourselves, don't worry the other two members of our group should be here soon and then they'll introduce themselves, I'm Agent Washington''
The others all looked at Wash and Wash himself didn't realise what he had said, he was so use to introducing himself like that, and when he did realise what he said Wash wanted to smack a hand over his face, but restrained himself because Qrow and Amber were already giving him pointed looks.
''Agent?'' Qrow asked with a quirked brow.
''Y-yeah, sorry that was a force of habit, I was a Specialist at one point'' said Wash shakily hoping they'd buy that.
''I'm sorry, I know a lot of Specialists in the Atlas Military and none of them refer to themselves as 'Agent''' said Qrow a brow quirked at Wash.
''Well who said he was an Atlas Specialist?'' Sarge shot back.
''Yeah Atlas isn't the only co- kingdom with specialists and he never said he was an Atlas Specialist, so back off asshole!'' Tucker snapped.
''Ok, ok let's just go back to introducing ourselves, I'm Amber Autumn'' said Amber,
''and I know I've already said it but thank you for saving me''
Caboose was the next one to introduce himself ''hey, I'm Caboose and this is Freckles'' he held up the gun which to Grow and Amber's surprise said ''pleasure to meet you''
''D-did that gun just talk?'' Qrow asked stunned.
''Yeah its an A.I. program thats been loaded into the gun'' explained Wash.
''Many one of my nieces would flip if she saw that'' Qrow chuckled.
Sarge stepped forwards next and saluted ''Colonel Sarge'' he said.
''I'm sorry, your name is Sarge?'' Amber asked.
''Yep, Pappy always told me to dress for the job I wanted, I took it a step further'' explained Sarge.
''I see'' said Amber before turning to Doc ''and your names Doc, so did your a doctor?''
''Yeah, but I'm just a Medic though and Doc's not my name, it's Dufresne, but apparently its too hard to say in conversation so I'm Doc'' Doc answered.
''I see'' said Amber.
''Pleasure to meet you ma'am'' said Tucker ''Lavernius Tucker, need me and I'll be there when you do''
''I see'' giggled Amber finding his introduction to be a little cute.
''Never heard a name like that before'' said Qrow ''that sounds like a pre-war name''
''Pre-war?'' Tucker whispered to Wash confused.
''Oh right, I forgot after the
'' Wash explained lushly.
''Oh, well my parent's we're really retro, yeah, they were really retro'' said Tucker awkwardly.
''Huh'' said Qrow his eyes narrowed.
''I'm Grif'' said Grif.
''And who are you?'' Amber asked looking at Simmons.
''Err, well- I-I'm- I mean- yes- that is to- well- err'' Simmons spluttered.
''His name is Simmons'' said Grif ''oh and here come the last of us now'' Donut and Lopez were walking up to them Lopez had a Sniper rifle strapped to his back.
''Hey guys, I see everything went well, what are we doing?'' Donut asked.
''Yeah, we were just introducing ourselves'' said Wash, all of them were hoping Donut wouldn't say anything too embarrassing.
''Oh well its nice to meet you guys, I'm Donut'' said Donut, which had all the Reds and Blues let out a sigh of relief.
''Donut was the one who was throwing the Grenades'' explained Doc, Qrow nodded as he took out his flask to take another drink.
''Yeah I'm sorry that I stopped guys, I was tossing everything I had but I ended up blowing my load way too soon'' said Donut, causing Qrow to spit out his drink and Amber's face to turn scarlet ''what did I say something?'' Qrow and Amber both turned to the other Reds and Blues looking baffled.
''Before you ask no he doesn't hear himself'' said Grif.
''[You really are an embarrassment to everyone aren't ya pinky]'' said Lopez.
''Oh thanks Lopez'' said Donut.
''[And please just stop trying to translate me, your Spanish is really not that good!]'' Lopez snapped ''[anyways I suppose its nice to meet you, I am Lopez the heavy]''
''I'm sorry what did he say?'' Qrow asked.
''His name is Lopez'' answered Tucker.
''Hmm, well now that introductions are out of the way,
?'' Qrow asked his eyes narrowed.
''We were just passing by and we heard some commotion and heard something so we went to check it out which was when we saw the attack so we rushed to help'' Wash answered.
''I see'' said Qrow ''a little convenient don't you think''
''Eh, a lot of things are these days aren't they'' said Sarge with a shrug.
Wash saw Qrow was positioning himself so he would be ready to draw out Harbinger, Wash positioned himself in a similar manner so he could draw his battle rifle if needed, he had managed to outdraw the Meta so he was pretty confident he could outdraw Qrow though he was hoping it wouldn't come to that and fortunately it didn't because Amber spoke up ''Qrow enough, they saved my life and if they wanted to harm us they already would have, so just drop this please''
Qrow looked at Amber and then at the rest of the Reds and Blues before grumbling out ''fine'' and dropping his stance.
''Thank you, err I hope you don't mind but me and my team need to talk'' said Wash gesturing ''we're just gonna go over there, call us if you need anything'' with that Wash along with the other Reds and Blues walked off to a tree far enough the they could talk privately.
''So what do we do now?'' Donut asked.
''We go with them obviously, there's no way that bitch Cinder and those other two assholes won't try anything'' said Tucker.
''Tucker's right, it would be best for us to accompany them to make sure Cinder doesn't try to finish the job, we probably can't go most of the journey though since we want to be independent'' said Wash.
''Ok but what about the ship?'' Simmons asked.
''[He's right]'' said Lopez ''[we haven't got the autopilot up and running yet and even if we did we'd feed it co-ordinence which we can't do because its systems don't link up with ours yet]''
''Lopez says that we haven't got the auto pilot running yet and even if we did we would have to feed it co-ordinence which we can't do since our armour doesn't link up with the ship'' Donut translated ''so he'll go back to the ship, he should be able to follow us by tracking our radio signal and he'll work on the auto pilot and linking the ship with our systems''
''[Huh good job, you actually understood that]'' said Lopez ''[and a pretty good suggestion, yeah with time I should be able to do that and maybe work the weapon systems while I'm at it]''
''Alright then, Lopez will go back to base and we'll accompany Amber and possibly Qrow'' said Wash ''does anyone have anything they want to bring up do it now'' suddenly Caboose gasped causing the others to jump ''Caboose whats wrong?''
''Agent Washington look its a pony!'' Caboose cheered pointing at something and sure enough a horse was stood a few feet away grazing on some grass.
''Oh that must be Amber's horse, Caboose could you go get that for her?'' Wash asked.
''Depends can I pet the pony?'' Caboose asked.
''Of course'' said Wash.
As Caboose ran off towards the horse the rest of the Reds and Blues turned and walked back towards Amber and Qrow, except Lopez he was headed towards the Falcon, which they had used to get there.
''Alright, we've talked things over and if its alright with you, we're going to accompany you'' said Wash.
''Heh, heh, no your not I can take Amber on my own'' said Qrow.
''Alright look I get you don't trust us, but those guys who attacked Amber are still out there and they'll be looking to finish the job, its three against two and one of you is injured, so it would be better for us to go with you and provide safety in numbers'' stated Wash ''we won't accompany you all the way, but we'll take you as far as we can''
''He's right Qrow just trust them ok?'' Amber asked, she was starting to get impatient with him.
''Fine'' Qrow sighed ''by way where's the brown one?''
''Lopez is going back to our base to guard it'' said Wash.
''You guys have a base?'' Qrow asked.
''Yeah'' said Wash.
''Alright, what about the blue one?'' Qrow asked.
''Agent Washington, Agent Washington! I've got the pony!'' Caboose cheered, they
and Qrow and Amber were stunned to see Caboose was actually carrying the horse over to them,
''Amber you ride on this, its best for you to not to make any strenuous movement or it'll make things worse'' explained Doc and after helping Amber climb on the horse they set off towards the nearest village.
A few hours into the journey and Amber was immensely enjoying the trip, sure it wasn't perfect their was still a searing pain in her back where the arrowhead was but for the most part she was enjoying this trip, if it were just her and Qrow they would be travelling in silence, but the Reds and Blues always seemed to have something to talk about and Amber was loving it, sure they're were a few things not to like about it like Grif complaining about walking and Qrow occasionally complained about all the talking, but it was still enjoyable.
''Hey Agent Washington can I ask you something?'' Amber asked.
''Sure and please you can call me Wash'' he said.
''Oh thank you Wash, I just wanted to ask what your doing?'' Amber asked.
''Oh I'm just checking in with Lopez at the base'' Wash explained.
''You understand him?'' Amber asked.
''Umm, no I understand a few words but I don't really understand him'' said Wash.
''So how do you guys talk to him?'' Amber asked.
''Oh Donut know's some of language Lopez speaks and the rest of us get by, Lopez usually does something and we kind of understand what he's saying for there'' explained Tucker.
''Speak for yourself I understand Lopez perfectly'' said Sarge.
''Do you speak his language?'' Tucker asked.
''No, but I feel such a connection to Lopez I understand him like he's speaking our language'' said Sarge.
''Uh huh'' said Tucker clearly not believing Sarge.
''Do you mind if I ask more questions?'' Amber asked, causing the Reds and Blues to look at her as well as Qrow ''I'm sorry if I'm being intrusive but you have to understand, like Qrow said a lot of people on Remnant know a lot about you but they don't really know much about you and their are some things I'd like to know''
''That's fine but we'd like to ask you some questions too'' said Wash ''and if we don't want to answer certain questions we won't and we don't mind if you do the same with us''
''Of course'' said Amber with a nod ''can I go first or do you want to go first?''
''Eh, we'll go first I don't think we have many questions do we?'' Wash asks, with the other Reds and Blues agreeing.
''Sure go first'' said Amber.
''Alright then, first of all we just want to know how much people do know about us?'' Wash asked.
''As I said its not much, the most people know about you is that your a travelling group, they don't exactly know what you are if your Huntsmen or ex-Soldiers, but they know you go to villages that are under attack from Grimm and save the villagers, but that's about it, most people don't even know your names and just refer to you by your armour colour'' explained Amber.
''What do they call us?'' Grif asked quickly.
''Wash is Grey, Sarge is Red, Caboose is Blue, Tucker's called Mint, Simmons is Maroon, Grif's Gold, Donut is obviously Pink, Doc's called purple and Lopez is Brown''
''I'm not Gold I'm orange!'' Grif cried.
''My Armour's not pink it's a lightish red!'' Donut complained.
''And I'm- well actually I don't know what colour this is but I'm not Mint!'' Tucker exclaimed.
Amber smiled at their antics ''there's one more thing'' said Wash ''are there any rumours about someone who may look like us but works independently, you know someone dressed in the same kind of armour as us that's the same kind of colour as Tucker's suit but it has a different helmet?''
''No, I haven't heard anything like that'' said Amber, she could see this question caught Qrows attention.
''I see'' Wash mused ''ok I think we're done go ahead, ask whatever question you want to ask''
''Ok there are a lot of rumours and I want to know how many are true so first of all is it true that you guys never remove your helmets?'' Amber asked.
''Oh we take our helmets off, we just don't do it very often'' Wash answered.
''So you take them off to eat and sleep'' Amber asked.
''Oh no we don't need to do that'' Doc answered ''our helmets have openings for us to eat and drink without taking them off''
''And they're rather comfortable so you don't even need to take them off to sleep'' Grif answered ''I've slept in my helmet more than a few time''
''I see, so do you guys actually know what each other looks like?'' Amber asked.
''A few of us know what each other look like'' Wash answered.
''So I'm curious now which ones of you know what the others look like?'' Amber asked ''you don't have to tell me if you don't want to''
''I see no reason why we shouldn't, I mean you won't know what we look like if we tell you'' Sarge stated ''Wash and Donut have seen my face and I've seen theirs, I don't think anyone else has though''
''Actually I think all of us have seen Donuts face at some point'' said Wash.
''Yeah I'm not really all that shy, unlike Doc I don't think any of us have seen his face'' said Donut.
''Yeah, but I'm ok with that, it just means I'm the mysterious one of the group'' said Doc ''how about you Caboose who's seen your face?''
''Wash and Tucker and Simmons when I changed helmets'' said Caboose.
''Oh yeah your helmet broke at one point and I needed to fix it'' said Wash ''you wore a different one and when you changed back me, Tucker and Simmons saw your face''
''Yeah'' Caboose nodded ''what about you Wash?''
''I actually think mines been seen the most, you, Doc, Tucker, Sarge and Donut have all seen my face'' said Wash ''and I don't know about any of you, but me and Caboose bunked with Tucker so we've seen his face''
''I sleep naked'' said Tucker unashamed.
''Oh and me and Simmons know what each other look like'' Grif answered.
''Hey what's up with Simmons anyways he's been silent this whole trip and he didn't really speak when we met, so whats up with that does he have a speech impediment or can he not speak or something like that?'' Amber asked.
''Oh no he can talk, he just can't talk to women'' Grif explained.
''Oh? Why not?'' Amber asked.
''Dunno know how to tell ya this but he's a nerd so ya know'' said Grif, which caused Simmons to lower his head.
''I see'' said Amber.
''Oh hey look we're coming up on the next village'' Donut said pointing ahead and sure enough they were coming up on the next village.
''Well I guess we're going to be separating soon, thank you for the trip I enjoyed it, it was nice''
''Yeah it was nice wasn't it, it was a nice change to walk and talk for once'' said Donut.
''What do you guys usually just stand around and talk'' Qrow said with a sarcastic tone.
There was was a moment of silence then the Reds and Blues all gave varying responses of:
''No''
''Absolutely not''
''Not us''
''You do''
When they walked into the village all eyes were drawn to them and after what Amber told them that wasn't surprising.
''Hey, everyone is looking at me, I love it when they do that'' said Caboose before crying out ''hi everybody!'' And waving as they walked through the town, some people waved while other just looked on.
''I'm pretty they're looking at all of us Caboose'' said Wash.
''Does 'all of us' include me?'' Caboose asked.
''Huh, yeah I guess you got a point there buddy'' said Wash, he then saw something that almost made him stop it was a boy running towards them but an older girl presumably the boys sister grabbing his arm and pulling him back, it reminded him of his sisters, his sisters who were still alive in this timeline.
''Ok I'm going to see if they have a doctor to look at Amber'' said Qrow.
''I should probably come with you'' said Doc.
''If you want to'' Qrow scoffed ''Amber I'm still on mission so I'll send you off to our friend on train, the trains aren't running tonight so we'll have to do it tomorrow''
''We'll see you off then tomorrow then'' said Donut.
''I'll see you tomorrow then'' smiled Amber, as her horse and her by extension were pulled away by Qrow accompanied by Doc.
''So what now?'' Simmons asked.
''I don't know'' sighed Wash still thinking about his sisters.
''Hey Wash are you ok?'' Tucker asked.
''Yeah I'm fine, I've just got something on my mind and I want to be alone'' said Wash walking off ''you guys do what you want while we're here, but don't do anything that'll get us kicked out though, but I think that's something obvious''
Later Wash was sat at a bar with a couple of bottle of beer in front of him, Wash had offered to pay for but the owner had been rather nice and insisted he could drink for free, he was holding some old creased photographs, one was of him and his sisters, they were children gathered around the couch with him holding a sign that said 'Help' and the other was of him and his team and team RWBY, it was taken after the Beacon Dance, Wash was thinking back fondly on his time with his sisters and his friends.
''Hey'' said a familiar voice, Wash looked over to see Grif.
''Oh hey Grif what are you doing here?'' Wash asked.
''Well you walked off seeming pretty sad so I thought I might as well come see if you're alright'' said Grif hopping onto the stool next to Wash, a bartender put a bottle of beer in front of him as well ''so come on, whats up''
''It's nothing Grif, I just saw something in the village that made me think of something'' said Wash looking at the picture of his sisters, Grif saw the picture too, he did see the full image but he saw some girls on it.
''Ah you have sisters?'' Grif asked, which made Wash's hair stand on end ''hey listen, don't worry I won't tell Tucker if you do'' Grif gave him a pat on the shoulder ''as a guy with a sister who Tucker has claimed to have fucked I totally understand''
''Oh god, I'm sorry I didn't even think because of this-'' Wash started.
''ENo, no, no don't Wash its ok, according to Lopez my sister is dead, so yeah'' said Grif ''I don't believe him, I don't think she's dead but hey if she is alive I'm pretty sure she's alright, she's probably just living out in Blood Gulch doing… I don't want to think about what she's doing, but as to you, thinking about your sisters?''
''Yeah'' sighed Wash ''yeah I was, after I accidentally left I thought about them pretty often, when I got into Freelancer I would write them letters everyday, I couldn't send them of course but I wrote them with things I wanted to say to them and well after Freelancer I couldn't write them anymore and after I joined up with you guys I didn't have anything to write letters so I did voice recordings on my helmet, I- I really miss them sometimes, I really miss a lot of people from my life here''
''Shit dude, I'm- I'm sorry about that'' said Grif.
''It's alright, its not your fault'' said Wash.
''Listen I'm sure your sisters would be proud of you, your a hero and who wouldn't be proud to have a Hero for a brother'' said Grif.
''Thanks Grif I'm sure your sister would be proud of you too'' said Wash.
''Thanks man'' said Grif, the two clinked bottles together before taking a drink ''so how many sisters do you have anyways?''
''Seven'' Wash answered.
''What!'' Grif exclaimed ''your fucking kidding me right''
''I wish I was'' said Wash.
''Did your parents have any other hobbies?'' Grif asked.
''Not really'' said Wash with a shrug, before noticing Qrow entering the bar, he placed the photos he was holding picture down on the bar to ensure he wouldn't see them.
Qrow sat down next them saying ''I'm with them'' as he did ''according to the Doctor they don't equipment to get it taken out, so Amber will have to go to Vale to get the wound fixed, which is ok that's where she was headed'' he explained.
''Alright, why tell us this, its obvious you don't trust us, so why tell us?'' Wash asked.
''I don't know, you did help her so maybe I can trust you won't harm her, but I don't know if I can trust you with anything else'' said Qrow ''by the way I noticed your stance before we hit the road, you were going to try and out quickdraw me weren't you''
''What if I was?'' Wash asked.
''Well I'd say that's cute'' said Qrow ''but even if you did out draw me and you wouldn't by the way I have something you don't, I'm pretty sure you guys don't have aura''
''I don't and I don't need it, I have my armour'' said Wash.
''Yeah and our armour would last way longer than your aura can'' said Grif.
''Oh yeah?'' Qrow challenged.
''Yeah guess what a ship crashed on top of Donut once knocked him through the ground into an underground cavern he fell three feet, he got up and walked it off, same with Wash the guys been beaten, stabbed and shot he took it all and walked it off, so even if you could out draw Wash which you wouldn't by the way, he'd just walk it off and kick your ass!'' Grif shot back, but before it could get anymore heated an alarm blared off ''what the fuck is that''
''That's an alarm, come on Grif we should see what that is'' said Wash getting up from the bar.
''I should have known this wasn't going to be a good day'' complained Grif, Qrow wasn't far behind them, putting something in his pocket.
When they exited the bar they saw a huge gathering of people, they made their way over to see what was happening, the other Reds and Blues were there as well, the village stepped up and said ''my people, we need to evacuate the town'' Wash could see people looking scared ''a large Grimm horde is approaching and while there is a train we can all escape on, but a few of us will have to stay behind to hold them off, so I will need volunteers''
''We'll stay!'' Wash called getting everyones attention ''we'll stay behind all of you get on that train and get out of here, nobody needs to sacrifice themselves, nobody, not while we're here isn't that right guys''
''Hell yeah''
''Defiantly''
''Oh absolutely''
''100%''
''Now go get what you need and get on that train!'' Wash called, everyone quickly rushed to meet
as was turned to Qrow ''Qrow I know this doesn't really need to be said but you go with them, make sure Amber makes it to Vale''
''Hey wait'' Qrow called, causing Wash to turn ''I may have been wrong about you guys, maybe you can be trusted''
''Thanks, now get Amber and everyone else out of here'' Wash ordered.
An hour later the Reds and Blues were getting ready for the oncoming Grimm attack, the train had left and Wash had told Lopez to set a time after half an hour Lopez would pick them up, because the train should be far enough away for the Grimm to sense anything.
''Alright, Donut get of the roof of a house and get ready on my signal start throwing grenades'' said Wash.
''Okey dok, I'm on it'' said Donut taking a box of grenades and running off.
''Simmons do you have any detonators left?'' Wash asked.
''Just one why?'' Simmons asked.
''Attach it to that watchtower, when enough Grimm come we'll drop it right on them'' Wash ordered ''when you get back find cover with the rest of us''
''Alright I'm on it'' said Simmons.
A couple of minutes after Simmons had set up the detonator the attack started, Grimm started to swarm from the forest the town was facing, the Reds and Blues began to fire and soon enough Simmons blew the detonator bringing the watchtower down on a large number of Grimm and becoming an obstacle for them to climb over ''Donut start tossing grenades now!'' Wash called.
''Only got five, so I gotta make those five loads count!'' Donut cried throwing grenades blasting Grimm left and right, unfortunately as he said he only had five grenades so there were only five blasts.
But then Caboose put Freckles down, the gun was still firing eliminating all the Grimm it could, the Reds and Blues cried after him but Caboose kept going forwards, he ducked under a Beowolfs claws and then jumped up kicking it in the face and shattering its mask killing it, he then grabbed one and started swinging it around wacking it into more Grimm and as soon as that one vanished he grabbed one and threw it into the other Grimm, before picking up two more swinging them around smashing them into the ground hitting other Grimm.
''Damn I'm starting to feel sorry for those Grimm bastards'' said Tucker.
''Caboose is clearing a path come on lets follow him'' Wash ordered chasing after Caboose, the other Reds and Blues followed with Doc picking up Freckles and Grif lingered behind firing his Grifshot to blast huge portions of Grimm, but then a hail of bullets came out of the sky and they all looked up to see the Falcon flying towards them ''that's our ride, times up guys lets go!''
The Reds and Blues all quickly rushed to the Falcon and climbed aboard still shooting at the black monsters as they did so, Grif and Simmons manned the guns on the Falcon to help cover the others escape and as soon as all of them were aboard, the Falcon took to the sky and left the village flying back to their ship.
Meanwhile on the train Qrow was knelt down next to Amber who was with the wounded laying on a mattress they had brought for them ''Amber, I have to go I'm still on a mission from Oz, but this train should get you to Vale safely, alright'' Amber nodded tiredly as she started to fall to sleep, Qrow left the cart with the wounded in it and was ready to jump of the train and transform into a bird when he stopped for a minute thinking over the last thing he said to Wash ''yeah, maybe I can trust you but their is one thing I'd like you to answer'' he said to himself pulling something out of his pocket ''why did you have a picture of my nieces you grey armoured bastard''
So yeah that's the chapter I hope you liked that, hope you liked the picks for who has and hasn't seen each other with there helmets, in my mind they made sense but I'd like to example how Wash, Sarge and Donut having seen each other's faces, I know in the episode 'The Federal Army of Chorus' they showed Wash, Sarge and Donut in there armour but that was because they were making the show in Halo 4, but I like to think that when they were captured by the Feds they were stripped of there armour and were only wearing their skin suits this means they wouldn't be wearing their helmets.
Now I just wanted to note there are certain things I want to do in this fic, some I'll defiantly do like the Reds and Blues seeing Wash's younger self and a list of people I want Wash to interact with before the reveal and some I won't do like this idea I had for Jaune to meet younger versions of the Reds and Blues and by that I mean Tucker, Caboose, Grif, Simmons and Donut being seventeen and Sarge being like thirty.
Why am I saying this its because I just want to note that I want to give Wash and Reds big friendship moments, for this chapter it was the moment with Grif and in chapter 2 I tired to do that with Donut though I don't know how well that went, I leave of Tucker and Caboose because, I think they have enough moments in the show proper that I don't really have to do that, I will give them little moments like how Wash and Tucker shared drinks last chapter, but its mostly going to be solidifying Wash's friendship with the Reds and I've got an idea for one with Doc.
