Noobs of War

Welcome to Noobs of War, my Gears of War AU. A summery is now on Gearspedia, [checkhttp://gearsofwar.wikia.com/wiki/Noobs_of_War]

Episode 1: Sing for Victory
Marcus Clean-ex was annoyed by a lot of things. And even that was an understatement. He reloaded his Lancer, and took aim at the Locust sniper on the other side of the canyon. The sniper retreated, and a Grub jumped forward, his Gnasher spraying crap in all directions. Marcus ducked behind cover, and opened fire once more.

"Marcus, Marcus, where are youuuuuu?" came a high-pitched, annoying voice. Byrd. Great. Just. Great. And now he'd have to answer all of his stupid questions. Again.

Byrd came over the side of the base, and walked right up. "Hey, Marcus, I've just built a robot that can kill lots of Locust in a very short time."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Why don't you go grab that sniper rifle, and help me shoot these Locust. Or at the very least get Freight. He can handle combat, right?"

"Welll, I woullllddd," Byrd croons, "but i don't know where he is. So I can't. Hoorayy!"

"I can (sob) take you there, (sob), Byrd." came a pathetic and weak sounding voice over the edge. Oh great. Dum.

Dum San Diego stumbled over the base, his eyes red. He'd been crying again. Or, 'being in touch with his emotions' or whatever crap he was saying these days.
