Chapter Text
There are two dogs on top of a base, one of them is a Blue Heeler who is aptly named Bluey, this time, she is wearing a dark red chest plate, the second is a Russell Terrier, who's named Jack, however, unlike Bluey, he's wearing some Yellow instead of the usual red.
Bluey sparks up a conversation with Jack.
Bluey: Hey.
Jack: Yeah?
Bluey: You ever wonder why we’re here?
Jack: 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 stare at each other in silence for 3-or-so seconds.
Bluey: ...What?! I mean why are we out here, in this canyon?
Jack: Oh. Uh... yeah.
Bluey: What was all that stuff about God?
Jack: Uh...hm? Nothing.
Bluey: You wanna talk about it?
Jack: No.
Bluey: You sure?
Jack: Yeah.
Bluey: Seriously though, why are we out here? As far as I can tell, it's just a box canyon in the middle of nowhere. No way in or out.
Jack: Mm hmm.
Bluey: The only reason that 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.
Jack: Yeah. That's because we're fighting each other.
Bluey: No, no. But I mean, even if we were to pull out today, and if they would come take our base, they would have two bases in the middle of a box canyon. Whoopdee-friggin'-doo.
Jack: What's up with that anyway? I mean, I signed on to fight a war with Rusty. Next thing I know, Your dad blows up the whole opposing force and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere, fighting 3 kids in the blue team.
Zoom in on two different kids watching Jack and Bluey from atop a cliff, one wielding a sniper rifle and in cobalt-blue armor, Mackenzie the Border Collie, the other standing behind him in an aqua chest plate, Judo the Chow Chow.
Judo: What're they doing?
Mackenzie slowly turns around to face Judo, lowering his rifle.
Mackenzie: (aggravated) What?
Judo: I said, "What are they doing now?"
Mackenzie: (frustrated) God damn, I'm getting so sick of answering that question!
Judo: (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 around with the toys I have, or lack thereof.
Mackenzie: (interrupting) Okay, okay, look... they're just standing there and 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, five minutes from now, when you ask me, “What are they doing?” my answer's gonna be, “They’re still just talking, and they're still just standing there!”
Both fall silent.
Judo: ...What're they talking about?
Mackenzie: ...You know what? I fucking hate you.
Cut back to Jack and Bluey.
Jack: Talk about a waste of resources. I mean, we should be out there finding new and intelligent forms of life... you know, fight them.
Bluey: Yeah, no shit. That's why they should put us in charge.
Cut to a low angle shot of a Kelpie in dark-red armor, Rusty, who is seen looking up at Jack and Bluey.
Rusty: Both of you, front and center on the double!
Bluey: Fuck.
Jack: Yes, sir!
