"You really have to work on using your words,"

Mazikeen glared at him and elbowed him in the gut and he winced, 

"You guys didn't tell her about moving bases?"

Epps raised his hands in defense, 

"We made an executive decision that you should be the one to tell her,"

"WE ARE MOVING?"

Will immediately stood up and ran behind Jazz's foot, 

"EPPS! FIG! DOX FORMATION!"

The two immediately ran and stood in front of Will and Mazikeen's eyes widened, 

"Oh, I know this is going to be good,"

Jazz looked at Mazikeen then the three soldiers hiding behind his foot, 

"So, this seems like a family kind of situation...soooo, I'm just going to go-"

"NOOO!"

Jazz winced as the three men shouted and Mazikeen glared at them, 

"Where are we moving?"

Will sighed, 

"Diego Garcia,"

Mazikeen frowned in confusion, 

"Where is Diego Garcia,"

Will slowly started inching his way back behind Jazz quickly followed by Epps and Fig, 

"It's on an island,"

He immediately ducked behind Jazz's leg, and Mazikeen stopped dead in her walk. Jazz immediately took out his shield and covered his face with it as he knew that sand was a big no for Mazikeen. She slowly started walking again, 

"The beach. With sand. The one thing we all don't like."

Fig chuckled nervously, 

"And I'm retiring,"

He quickly ducked back and winced as he heard the gasp, 

"What?"

Jazz lowered his shield and saw the broken look on her face. His spark dropped as he looked at her blue eyes. Fig immediately looked and saw and ran over to hug her, 

"Oh, Mynx...I'm sorry, but it's my time,"

Mazikeen shook her head, 

"B-But what about the barbecue?"

Fig laughed and wiped her tears from her cheeks, 

"Hey, who says we can't do that, chica? I can definitely find some food around here, maybe get one of those terror twins to get some good juicy meat after I give them some money,"

Mazikeen chuckled softly, 

"You know, they stole the medical supplies...because they had no idea what money was,"

Fig laughed, 

"Yeah, I taught them about money, along with all the other bots...cuz if my sister is going to be with them, they gotta know more about us,"

Mazikeen laughed and smiled at him, 

"I'm going to miss you,"

Fig winked at her, 

"I know, after all, I am your favorite,"

Mazikeen rolled her eyes and punched his shoulder, 

"Whatever,"

Fig smiled at her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, 

"Come on, don't be like that,"

Mazikeen glanced at him and sighed, 

"Yeah...I know I know...why are you leaving?"

Fig sighed and glanced back at his friends as they nodded at him, he glanced up at Jazz and finally looked at Mazikeen, 

"After all the shit that happened...I realized that I wanted to go take care of my ma...she is all I got left...and hey! Maybe I'll find a nice lady over there,"

Mazikeen smirked, 

"May the sky have mercy on that poor soul,"

Fig gasped, 

"Oh, how you wound me, Mynx,"

Mazikeen laughed, and she smiled at him, 

"Just...don't be a stranger,"

Fig smirked at her and winked. Will and Epps walked up to the two and the four gathered in a circle...just like they have been doing since they started the squad. Will put his hand in, 

"Hey, we have been through hell together. The kind of shit we saw out there, even before that battle...we will always be a family,"

Mazikeen nodded and put her hand in, 

"No matter the distance, we are only one call away,"

Epps smiled and put his hand in, 

"Hey, let's celebrate Christmas like the good ol' days this year,"

They all laughed. Fig smirked and put his hand in, 

"I call dibs on hosting!"

Epps groaned dramatically, 

"I swear Fig!"

Fig laughed at him and nudged him, 

"One day! You will eat an alligator!"

Epps crossed his arms, 

"Never!"

Mazikeen and Will shared an amused look as the two started walking away while arguing, and they followed. Before they left the hangar, Mazikeen glanced at Jazz and smiled at him, and waved goodbye, and he was quick to return the wave.
