red vs blue(w/OCs): The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Discontinued)

[S1] A Shadow of His Former Self

BLUE BASE

Tucker tries to contact Blue command for reinforcement while Caboose is cleaning Tucker's armor and, Azumi is standing right next to Caboose.

Tucker: Come in Blue Command. This is Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha. Do you read me?

Caboose: Okay, that is the last of it. Your armor is clean now.

Tucker: Did you get all the black stuff off?

The Blue team heard a radio contact from Blue command.

Vic: (radio)This is Blue Command, come in Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha.

Tucker: Hello, Command! We need help!

Vic: Roger that, Blood Gulch. What is your request?

Tucker: I don't know what the technical military term is for it... But, uh, we're pretty fucked up down here. We need men!

Blue command went silent for a moment.

Vic: Dude, how long have you guys been down there?

Azumi quickly turns her head to Tucker as she incredulously heard what command is saying.

Tucker: No, no no, no. It's not like that! We need more men to help us.

Vic: Roger that. Did you get the tank we sent?

Tucker: Yeah... That got blown up too.

Vic: Wow... Sucks to be you.

Tucker: Yeah, we know.

Vic: Okay, here's what I can do. The nearest blue forces can be there in sixteen days or, I--

Tucker: Sixteen days?! That's almost two weeks!

Vic: OR, I can hire a nearby freelancer and get him there within a few hours.

Caboose: I like the "in an hour" one.

Tucker: Yeah, me too. Roger that Command. We prefer the quicker solution.

Azumi is the only one who is a bit skeptical about that but, since the Blue team lost a member and a tank and was outnumbered and, possibly, outgunned, They desperately needed reinforcements.

Vic: 10-4, Blood Gulch. We will contact freelancer Tex and have them there post-haste. Command out.

Tucker: Whoever he is, make sure he can fix a tank.

Caboose: What's a freelancer?

Tucker: Freelancers are independent. They're not Red or Blue. They're just guns for hire who'll fight for whoever has the most money.

Azumi is still skeptical about Freelancers. She theorized that Freelancers are more of a special forces than a skilled mercenaries. She needed evidence to support her theory.

Caboose: Like a mercenary.

Tucker: Right. Or like your mom, when the rent's due.

Azumi is pretty angry at Tucker being mean to Caboose.

Caboose: oh, that's funny.

Tucker: Yeah, you didn't think that was too obvious?

Caboose: No no, not at all. That was good.

Azumi:(mutters) Asshole.
