Red vs Blue: Remembrance

Greenish-Blue With Envy

PRESENT DAY...

Carolina, along with the Red and Blues, drive into Valhalla and stop. Wash, South, and Slade walk up to Carolina as she hops off her Mongoose.

Wash: Pelican's over there. That's where Tex ended up.

Carolina: You mean her body ended up there.

South: Yeah. That.

Carolina: Show me.

The ex-Freelancers leave for the crash site until Simmons runs up from behind one of the Warthogs.

Simmons: Wait! What about the military? This could all be a trap remember?

Carolina: What are you talking about?

Sarge: Wash told us we were fugitives of the law. Bandits. Cast out by society with no hope of redemption!

Simmons: Yeah, and that the UNSC would be waiting for us when we got back to base!

Carolina, South, and Slade turn to Wash.

Wash: It was a possibility...

Slade: Mate, it's mine and South's job to intimidate them.

Carolina: Let me get this straight...

Tucker, with Caboose beside him, calls Epsilon over to them.

Tucker: Psst! Hey Church! Over here!

Epsilon appears in front of the two.

Epsilon: Yeah, hey. Can't talk too long. My connection with Carolina's memory unit's not so good. What's up?

Tucker: Ah, not much, my first time here so I'm just taking it all in. Really enjoying the scenery. What about you?

Epsilon: Well, I mean, yeah, you know, now that you mention it the trees are kinda nice. Especially in comparison with the desolate environment of the sand and the- wait, wait, wait, wait, is that it?!

Tucker: No that's not it! What the fuck are you doing with Carolina?

Epsilon: Hey, calm down! Turns out she's more complicated than we thought.

Caboose: Like Monopoly! Or like the board game.

Tucker: Church, just because you want to get close to someone doesn't mean that you have to end up inside them!

Brief pause.

Epsilon: ...Oh come on. Aren't you going to say it?

Tucker: No, because I'm pissed off!

Epsilon: Alright, alright, look guys. I'm still on your side, okay? But if Carolina is hiding something, I'm going to have to stay close to her in order to find it. See? Proximity is the key.

Tucker: I thought memory was the key?

Caboose: Yeah, and the sword. Sword is the key too!

Tucker: Caboose, shut up!

Epsilon: Hey, I gotta go. We'll talk later.

Epsilon vanishes.

Caboose: We should probably get a key ring.

Simmons shakes his head, confused.

Simmons: So are you going to give us something to do?
