Blood Gulch Canyon, Red Base
Two soldiers enlisted in the red army, are standing on the roof of their base in Blood Gulch, one of them is clad in maroon armor known as Private Dick Simmons, while the other is clad in orange armor known as Private Dexter Grif, the duo are seen talking to each other.
Simmons: Hey.
Grif: Yeah?
Simmons: You ever wonder why we're here?
Grif: It's one of life's great mysteries isn't it, why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a god watching everything? You know, with a plan for us and stuff, I don't know man, but it keeps me up at night.
Both Simmons and Grif stare at each other in silence.
Simmons: ...What? I mean why are we out here, in this canyon?
Grif: Oh, uh... yeah.
Simmons: What was all that stuff about god?
Grif: Uh...hm? Nothing, don't worry about it.
Simmons: You wanna talk about it?
Grif: No.
Simmons: You sure?
Grif: Yeah.
Simmons: Seriously though, why are we out here? As far as I can tell, it's just a box in the middle of nowhere, no way in or out.
Grif: Mm-hmm.
Simmons: The only reason we set up a Red Base here, is because they have a Blue base over there, and the only reason they have a Blue base over there, is because we have a Red base here.
Grif: Yeah, that's because we're fighting against each other.
Simmons: No, no but I mean even if we pulled out today, and if they come to take our base, they would have two bases in the middle of a box canyon in the middle of nowhere. Whoopdee-fucking-doo.
Grif: What's up with that anyway? I mean, I signed up to fight some aliens, and next thing I know Master Cheif blows up the whole Covenant armada and I'm stuck fighting a bunch of blue guys in the middle of nowhere.
On a nearby cliff overlooking the Red base, two blue soldiers are seen crouching, one of them, wearing cobalt armor known as Private Leonard Church was using a sniper rifle to get a closer look at Simmons and Grif while the latter was wearing aqua armor known as Private Lavenius Tucker.
Tucker: What're they doing?
Church slowly turns towards Tucker, lowering his rifle
Church: (aggravated) What?
Tucker: I said, "What are they doing now?"
Church: (frustrated) God damn, I'm getting so sick of answering that question!
Tucker: (defensively) You have the fucking rifle I can't see shit, don't bitch at me because I'm not going to just sit up here and play with myself.
Church: (interrupting) Okay, okay look...they're just standing there talking, okay? (getting angry) That's all they're doing, that's all they ever do is just stand there and talk. That's what they were doing last week, that's what they were doing when you asked me five minutes ago, so when you ask me five from now "What are they doing?" my answer is gonna be, "They're still just standing there and talking!"
Both fall silent.
Tucker: ...What're they talking about?
Church: ...You know what? I fucking hate you.
