"Great. Frickin. Great." Scout said, dragging his bat in the sand. "You know, I preferred it when we were stalling by "searching weapons.". Now we're in the middle of the Badlands, with nowhere to go."

"Yeah, and it's probably minutes before Gray understands we've survived." the Demoman said. "Then we'll be chased by killer robots too."

"Now, I know it's hard to stay positive now, but at least we're all okay." Dell said.

"All ok- ALL OKAY? What does it help us to be okay now? Do you even have a frickin plan?" Scout said.

"No, but we can think of one when we reach Dustbowl."

"Let me tell ya something pal. This is Mann's Land. Gray has even more robots over here than he has in the rest of the world. The second we reach any of the towns here, he'll blow us up."

Dell sat down on a rock. "Scout has a point. I guess we need some vehicle to get us out of here. Then we could go to my grampa's house and pick up some weapons."

"The only vehicle we've had is the van, and it's blown up now. Well? What's your plan now?"
"Well...dammit, Scout, you genius!" Dell stood up. "We need to reach Well. Remember that Control Point place we kept using? We'll use the trains to get outta Mann's Land!"

"It's still a long way."

"If you wanna return to Teufort, that ain't my problem."

They started walking through the Badlands.

Meanwhile, in Mann Co.

A Scout robot came to Gray.

"Sniper van eliminated, sir. Engineer and Sniper bodies found."

"Are you sure? Because in the footage, I saw at least five people who were supposed to be dead by now!" Gray put a plug into the Scout's chest, showing everything he saw since he was built. He spotted the Sniper Rifle poking out behind the flames of the van, and saw it moving away.

"Tell me, have you ever notice the other eight people driving in the van?" Gray asked.

"Yes."

"Then why assume they're all dead when you only saw two corpses?"

"Becau-" the Scout robot was shut down.

"Computer, kill the rest of the Scoutbot's team who investigated the exploded van and fix the Scoutbot's intelligence."

Gray looked at the footage from van explosion and scratched his chin. "One more thing: Send robots to Badwater Pipeline."
