Four Armies (An Eddsworld AU fanfic)

Chapter 3: Progress

Location: Blue Army Base

Tom's Pov:
I sit in my big what I like to call boss man chair, tapping my fingers anxiously against the table. I was tired of waiting to see if my spy had gotten what I had asked for. I did get a short message from him earlier though. He used the emergency walkie talkie to inform me of his snag of the mustard gas plans. Just as my patients was about to leave me, there was a knock at mg office door. "Come in." I look up at it.
There, steps out my solider, in the typical third-rank red army navy blue coat, and a disgusting red under shirt. He had chosen to button it up unlike some of the other soldiers there.
     "Permission to speak freely sir?" He glances at me for a moment, his thick blond hair swaying.
     There was a slight pause for a moment, before we both burst out laughing. Rumor has it Tor- Red Leader is very up right and strict over his soldiers. I prefer to lay it out easy on them, yet still strict enough to keep them in order. I'm lucky to even have so many soldiers.
      "Permission granted solider." He smile at him, still playing along with the joke.
     "Well sir, I got something for you." He smirks and lays down a paper, like a proud kindergartener who just made a drawing of their parents.
     I quickly take this paper and look threw it, reading threw the beautiful handwriting, admiring it for a moment. "You... got the plans!" I smile up at him, my black eyes staring at his beaming face.
     "I know!" I chuckles and smiles, nodding.
     "Excellent work soldier! Now, you are dismissed, you are granted the day off Grant." I smile at him, reviving a nod in response.
     "Thank you Blue Leader sir!" He salutes me and marches out of the room. He was definitely one of my best soldiers, if not the best.
     I sigh and look down at the plans. There were so many things I could do with them. Each having advantages and disadvantages. I stare at them blankly, resting my elbow against my desk and place my chin in the palm of my hand. I could just destroy these plans, and be done and over with... but on the other hand, I can use them, and gas the entire red army. I sigh, not wanting to think about this right now. I open up the drawer to my desk, and pull out a bottle of Smirnoff. Though it is warm, it's still the beverage I love.
     I take a large swig of it, and swallow, allowing them drink to burn my throats as it travels down. I sigh, and place the bottle where it was originally, proceeding to close he drawer. I must be sober at the moment, I mustn't be drunk. I tap my fingers on the table, and push the button for the intercom on my desk.
     "Good evening soldiers. Today's recent news regarding us is that your top solider, Grant, has brought home the dangers gas plans safely from Red army." I suddenly hear a roar of cheers and applause, which I allow to happen until they all die down. "Alright. Do proceed with your regular schedules." I smile, and stop holding down the button.
     Though everything does feel like it is going out way at he moment, before you know it, everything is going to end up terribly wrong. This is because when you're all the way on the top, the only way left to go is down.
     I decided to start stalling, not wanting to think about what to do with these inhumane plans. I check my email, and notice one from the Green Leader, Edd. I carefully open it, and scan through it.

   Dear Thomas,

I am so happy to announce the Purple Leader and I have decided to become allies during this troublesome time. The two of us shall be signing a contract declaring our partnership this coming Sunday. If you wish to attend, it shall be held at Green Army Base. directions may be provided if needed. You are welcome to bring up to three guests.
     Hopefully see you then,
              ~Edd

     I smile a bit. It sounds like a their getting married more then signing s stupid paper to become allies. I chuckle a bit to myself, and sit back in my chair. Of course I will attend! I would consider the Green Army the one army closest to me.
     Though becoming allies with anther army is typically something you should take any chance you get, I don't see us needing them at the moment. The way it works between Green Army with us, is that they don't harm us, and we don't harm them. Same thing goes with Purple army.
     I yawn, and grab my bottle of Smirnoff yet again, taking yet another large swig and allowing it to burn down my throat. I smack my lips together once I swallowed the whole chug. I eventually just chug the whole entire bottle, and smile drunkly.
I press down on the intercom and smile drunkly. "GranTY," I hiccup and giggle a bit. After a slight pause a solider knocks on my door. "nO I woUld noT likE To bUy you're coOkies!" I frown at the door.
The blond solider steps in anyways with his face planted in his hand. "Sir, did you drink again? This is like the third time this week you have gotten drunk!" He lectures me with a slight glare.
I frown at him. "Oh coMe on GranTY you'Re nO FuN." I giggle a bit.
"Sir, please just... let's sleep until we are sober so we don't make any bad choices...." I yawn and slightly nod my head, standing up, and falling over on the ground. He close my eyes and try to fall asleep. Two arms wrap around my waist, and pick me up. I start to scream and kick.
"NOO INTRUDER!! SOMEONE HELP!!!" I scream and kick my legs. Who is this person!? They're gonna kill me!!
"Blue Leader, please be quite..." the man sighs and runs me into my room. He puts me in bed, and throws the covers over me. "I will come get you soon blue Leader sir."
"Please, call me Tom." I mutter and burry myself in the blankets, cuddling into them a bit. I hear a soft chuckle, footsteps, and then a small click for the door. I snort drunkly one last time, before a wave of sleep takes over me.
