(Hope you're ready for some Minnesota action!)

Fade into Blood Gulch. Church walks up to Tex, who is working on Sheila.

Tex: (muttering) Come on, damn it. (sighs)

Church: Still won't start huh?

Tex: No. But it's getting there.

Church: Did you uhh... try checking the starter?

Tex: (sarcastically) Oh, what a brilliant idea. Next you're gonna' ask me if I tried the keys.

Church: You have keys?

Tex: No.

Church: How do you know so much about vehicles?

Tex: Well, during the training. We had to learn to care for our equipment. Plus, I've always liked cars.

Church: Uhh... training huh? Was that before...

Tex: Before what? Before I was killed? Before you brought me back as, whatever I am now?

Church: Oh. You know about that?

Tex: Well, of course I do. I know what you know. You made me.

Church: Well...no, not me.

Tex: Whatever. Him.

Church: Why did he do it? I...don't even remember when you first came around, you were just...kinda' there one day. It was like uhh... a training session or something like that.

Tex: (sighs) Yeah, Wyoming and Maine. Big dummies.

Church: Well, why did he bring you back?

Tex: You know what Church, I don't know? You tell me. He didn't exactly ask me what I wanted, I just kinda' came along for the ride, I didn't get a vote.

Church: But you were there when Alpha was there. Nobody else was.

Tex: I don't know. What can I say? I guess we were inseparable.

Sheila suddenly activates.

Tex: There you go! Tank's fixed! See what happens when you treat something right?

Church: Yeah. Yeah, as a matter of fact I think I do.

Cut to Minnesota driving down a highway.

"Not good!" Minne yells as he avoids some gun fire from three Hornets following him.

Suddenly two Warthogs appear and begin to fire at Minne.

Minne swerves to the side and avoids a rocket from a soldier on top of a truck.

"I wish I had help!" Minne yells as someone flies over him and lands on the hood of the Warthog.

The soldier aims a battle rifle at Minne. Minnesota growls and does a sharp right as the soldier open fires, the bullets missing Minnesota, except one, it strikes him in the right shoulder.

"CRAP!" Minne yells and he bulls out a pistol and shoots the soldier in the head, killing him. The battle rifle flies through the air and Minnesota catches it.

The soldier's body falls off the hood. Minne looks back and sees another soldier aiming a rocket launcher at Minne.

Minne looks up to the group of Hornets above the Rocket guy.
