Y/N is getting close to victory. He has survived the junkyard battleground with the help of the mysterious truck driver. Something is telling him it is more than just winning Calypso's contest. It is to bring those who locked him away to justice. Y/N is willing to win this contest or die trying. He sees a stadium before entering in. Once inside the gate behind slams shut and a truck horn blares out.

In the center of the arena is a large tanker truck with a turret on the top.

At the isolated area, Calypso and Penny see Y/N going head to head with his lonely opponent.

Penny: Is that who I think he is?

Calypso: Yes, Penny. That is the last year's champion, Minion.

Penny: Minion...

At the stadium, the battle begins as Y/N drives and shoot his guns at the truck but a shield is activated, protecting Minion.

Y/N: Dammit.

He moves around but Minion starts chasing himing. The turret on top aims before shooting rockets at Y/N. He weaves and swerves, trying to avoid the attacks. Y/N uses his driving skills trying to stay one step ahead of Minion. Then one of the rockets strike near Y/N forcing him to stop and go into reverse. He sees Minion in front and keeps shooting. The shield prevents the bullets from damaging Minion.

Y/N: Godammit.

All of a sudden he sees a special item and collects it. A target indicator appears when the glove compartment opens up. He takes it and sees Minion moving around. He aims before marking it.

???: This is Raider 1. Your target is marked. Your coordinates has been transferred and received. Standing by for strafe on. ETA 30 seconds.

Y/N moves as fast as possible as Minion keeps chasing and shooting him. In the skies an A-10 bomber approaches towards its target. The pilot sees the stadium before readying his aircraft's weapons. Y/N's vehicle starts to take damage from Minion. That is when the shield takes damaged from above. Y/N sees the A-10 arriving and clears the way for the aircraft to unleash hell.

A-10: This is Raider 1 engaging target. Danger close.

The pilot locks on and fires rockets at Minion. The rockets fly in and strike Minion. The shield is holding the brunt of the firepower the A-10 unleashed. It hold as long as possible before it finally cracks.

Y/N: Let's try that again.

He accelerates while shooting the vehicle's weapons and the rounds finally strike Minion. The enemy takes damage as he returns fire at Y/N who flees. Then a truck horn is heard as the gates to the stadium burst open and in comes Darkside.

Y/N: That truck.

From the isolated area

Penny: That's the Darkside! Can he do that?

Calypso: Hmm.

He pulls out the Twisted Metal rule book and looks through the pages. He then looks at Penny.

Calypso: I believe there is no rule against that.

Penny: Oh. Okay.

Back at the stadium, Y/N looks at Darkside who charges at Minion l, slamming into the side of the large truck. It shoots rockets and machine guns at Minion. Y/N decides to join in along with the A-10 which returns for another strafe run. The fighter bomber fires its nose cannon and it severely damages Minion.

Then Y/N fires the last rocket and it strikes the front of Minion and the huge truck explodes in a huge fireball. The blast knocks Y/N's out as the fires burns around.

Y/N: I slipped into the abyss. Thinking about all of this. My friends on the battlefield and my family back home. No man comes home from war. Not really. My comrades in arms.

(Flashback)

"It is during the early months of our second tour in Afghanistan. Evans, Henderson, and I were on a routine patrol with our unit. We approached a small village where the locals look at us. However Evans and Anderson were driven with drunkenness of power as a soldier. One night in the village, Evans and a comrade of his see a beautiful Afghan woman and before they grabbed her and took her into an empty house. I move in close to see them doing the unthinkable to the poor woman.

They stripped her, forced her on the ground and raped her. I rushed in and pull them away from the girl. I took their rifles and said to them

"You better kill our enemies only in battle"

Evan: A good soldier follows orders.

"Now that I think about it, my old friends become new enemies. Evans. Henderson. What have you done to me?"

(Flashback ends)

Y/N slowly regains consciousness before looking around the flames. Then he gets out to see the aftermath of the explosion. Then he looks before seeing Darkside. That is when the door of the truck opens and the person walks out.

Y/N: You're the driver that kept helping me in my battles. Who are you?

Darkside Driver: I am known as Dollface. I am also a driver who is competing in Calypso's contest. I was a bad girl at one time. And now I'm going to pay for it forever and ever and ever.

Y/N: You were in the asylum? (Dollface nods in reply) I was locked up for the assassination of the President and I was framed.

Dollface: Well, I was clumsy at my job and Mr Kreel was mad at me for ruining his work. I didn't mean to upset him. He put this mask on me and I have to win to release the mask I am in.

Y/N: I know how you feel. My sister Penny is the only family I have left and I don't want her to be alone.

Dollface: Calypso is willing to help me.

Y/N: Looks like we're competing for the prize.

Dollface: It looks like it.

Y/N reaches out to shake her hand, but Dollface looks at it. She looks at Y/N before slowly reaches and shakes his hand.
