Amidst the ruins of Dankin Town, the sheriff explains the destruction caused by Vash the Stampede to [[Loose Ruth]], a blond man wearing a long grey coat and a brimmed hat obscuring his face with a large rifle slung over his shoulder. Ruth remarks that the undertakers must be happy as he inquires how many people were killed. The sheriff responds that although there were many injuries, no one actually died. Ruth asks for a description of Vash. The sheriff admits he didn't get a good look at him, but that he wore red, had earrings, and was a giant man with short legs. Ruth thanks the sheriff for his help and leaves while the sheriff warns him to stay away from Vash for his own good.

Meanwhile, out at [[Places (anime)|Felnarl]] Exit 10 iles, a group of men are hanging out inside a bar as the cook cleans behind the counter. A news report is playing on the radio reporting the destruction of Dankin Town and telling residents to go to their designated shelter areas. Two women, [[Meryl Stryfe (anime)|Meryl Stryfe]] and [[Milly Thompson (anime)|Milly Thompson]], enter the bar. The men in the bar turn and leer at them as they approach the bar counter. Meryl confidently orders a banana sundae and Milly a a ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mille-feuille gateau mille-feuille]'' with Ceylon tea, which causes the men to exclaim in surprise and make a vulgar joke in regards to their orders. Milly, seemingly not understanding, says that's not what she ordered. A large stungun suddenly falls out from beneath her duster, causing the table to flip up and smash one of the rude men in the face. She apologizes and remarks that her must have sling broke again as she lifts the heavy stungun over her shoulder with ease. Meryl asks the cook if he has any information about Vash the Stampede, as she'd heard he'd shown up in Felnarl recently. The cook inquires if they are after the bounty. Meryl and Milly reply no, they are actually passing through here on business. The cook admits he didn't get a good look at him, but describes Vash as being a 12 feelz tall man with a mohawk who wields a huge weapon, and that he has tons of henchmen and the reputation as the worst womanizer anyone's ever seen. Meryl is confident that's the man they're looking for.

Outside of Felnarl Town, Descartes and his gang have lost sight of Vash and are searching for him. Descartes commands his gang to find him no matter what. The long-haired henchman says that he doesn't believe that coward of a man was Vash and that they should just move on. Descartes grabs him by the head with his mechanical arm and lifts the frightened henchman and reprimands him for trying to give orders. Descartes is certain the man was Vash because of what he was wearing. He orders the henchman to find Vash or he'll break his neck.
