Years ago...

Sounds of puddles were splashed, feet were walking to an abandoned room.

Alpha: (radio) "So far nothing. Got anything, guys?"

Carolina: "Negative."

York: "Nothing at all..."

Alpha grunts, before punching a wall in anger.

Alpha: "Godammit! You said they were here right?"

York: "Yeah, we just need to keep searching. I mean, this is a big ass house."

Alpha: (sighs) "Roger, keep me posted if you see anyth-"

???: "AHHHH! HELP M-"

The voice was then cut off. Alpha's head snap to the direction and he starts running to where the area was at.

Alpha: "Get to my location, NOW!"

Fade in back to the present, we see Grif crashing the jeep into the Elephant. While the other Jeep was next to the freelancers and alien, who got off their ride. Alpha changed his armor color to his old one in blood gulch to hide his identity, along with voice filter. South also did the same thing, voice filter and all, while using camouflage to change purple and green to black.

Sarge: "Aw, dammit Grif! Lookit what you did now! You busted up a brand new jeep."

Grif: "Me? You were the idiots that started setting off mines."

Alpha smacks him in the head.

Grif: "Ow! The fuck is with people and hitting me?!"

Sarge: "Well, at least I managed to get out there and not get hit by anything! Heh, good one Alpha."

Grif: "Because you jumped on the roof of the car! That's cheating."

Sarge: "No, it's called strategy!"

Grif: "Well, your "strategy" broke the jeep. So don't go blaming me. And the blue guy's dead too- how are we gonna explain that?"

Aur'an: "He's not dead-"

The intercom announcer runs out to see them. the freelancers were quiet as they see the insurrectionist wearing C.T's armor.

C.T.: "What the hell! What were you thinking?"

Sarge: "We don't need to explain why he died, Grif. We're Reds! Killing Blues is our business. And today, business is good."

Now it was Sarge's turn to get smacked by Alpha.

Sarge: "Ow! Goddamit, Alpha!"

Grif: "But we didn't kill him! He stepped on a mine and blew up. And he and the others are the reason that we're on this stupid mission. So now what?"

Sarge: "Hm. I see your point. So let us have a moment of silence in honor of the dead Blue guy. Bow your head."

C.T: "You guys have an alien with you?!-"

Alpha: "Yes. Shut up."

Tex: (Turns to Sarge) "He's not dead."

South: (voice filter and camouflaged with black) "Why do I see him up in the sky?"

C.T.: "Hey, are you listening to me?"

Grif: "Do you mind? We're having a moment of silence. Show some respect."
