Agent Arizona: Season 10

Regrets

Wash, Carolina, and Zone walk up to where Wash and the Meta had previously found CT's helmet. 

"Here. I have no idea how she got here." Zone walks up and picks the helmet out of the sand. 

[That's because she didn't.]

"Is that who I think it is?" 

"Zone you were here in the desert when you found the aqua-guy right?" Carolina asks. 

"TUCKER, has a name." Xi says appearing. "And yeah, we were here when we fought Headcase and his men. The aliens turned on him after the way he treated their artifacts. Church was the one that killed him." 

"How did this happen? Why did he pose as Connecticut?" Wash asked. 

[Best I can assume. After CT died, he took her place and was able to probably cut a deal with someone. Just thinking about everything that happened back then, the fact that they were the real good guys. And the Director made us kill them without mercy.] 

"None of us could've known Rex." Xi comforts him. 

"We should've Xi. All of us should've been more aware of what was happening." Carolina retorts. 

"What's that supposed to mean?" 

~Oh boy...~ Zone thinks worriedly. 

"I mean we're soldiers. It's our job to immediately know these things." Xi then appears in front of Carolina's visor. 

"There's a difference between knowing them and refusing to acknowledge or believe them. And you're one to talk after all the crap you did back on the ship." 

"What?" Carolina growls. 

"You always pushed everyone away and never listened to anyone but the Director. You never wanted anyone to be there and comfort you, listen to you, help you with your problems. All because of your stupid jealousy over Tex!" 

Carolina then punches the wall of the temple next to here. Rubble fell into the sand as she retracted her fist. Wash swallows as Xi just flickers, not ashamed of her statement. 

[Alright, alright. Enough!] Zone then stands between them. [Now's not the time for this. Let's just drop it before things get more out of hand? This is what the Director wants. Us wallowing in our past mistakes and blaming it on the people we care about.] 

There was a short silence until Wash spoke up. "So CT never made it huh?" 

"Apparently. We never did complete our objective." Carolina replies shouldering past Zone. 

"But why come out here? What's the motivation?" Carolina digs through the sand finding the armor. She then pulls out a data card. 

"I have a feeling this'll tell us."

Meanwhile, the Reds, Tucker and Caboose were huddled around Carolina's Mongoose. 

"So, uh, how do you feel?" Tucker asks. The headlights on the Mongoose turn on as if on cue. 

"I feel like running over each, and every one of you." Church's voice rings from the vehicle. 

"So pretty much the same as before." 

"Yeah. Pretty much." 

"Y'know Simmons? I think I'm gonna let you call "Shotgun" on this one." Grif says awkwardly before running. 

"Screw that!" Simmons follows him. Church then appears on the windshield. 

"Man, this sucks!"
