The bus driver was driving a bus to May City.{{Storylink|MURDER MACHINE}} | The bus driver was driving his bus to May City with passengers who had been picked up from the sand steamer ''Flourish'' after the hijacking by [[Brilliant Dynamites Neon]] and [[the Bad Lads]]. Also aboard the bus was [[Vash the Stampede (anime)|Vash]], [[Meryl Stryfe (anime)|Meryl]], and [[Milly Thompson (anime)|Milly]]. He stopped the bus when Vash suddenly shouted out, having spotted someone out in the distance in the desert. The bus driver went to investigate the man, who was hunched over in front of a large cross, which the bus driver remarked "''that's one heck of a well-prepared dead guy''." The man, [[Nicholas D. Wolfwood (anime)|Nicholas D. Wolfwood]], was in fact not dead. He was brought on aboard the bus. | ||
When the bus stopped for a break at a diner, Wolfwood struggled to come up with enough money to pay the bus fare. Wolfwood begged for the driver to cut him a deal, which the driver agreed to let him ride for [[Currency#Double dollar|$$]]80.

Shortly after, the bus was attacked by strange robots. The panicked passengers fled back to the bus and the driver began speeding away, wondering if it was some sort of lost technology after them and cursing the fact that he changed his route to save Wolfwood and that he should have charged him the full fare. A [[Helen and Tania's mother|mother]] aboard the bus then realized her [[Helen|daughter]] was missing. Vash and Wolfwood leapt out of the bus as the driver continued driving away. | |||
After the girl was rescued and Vash and Wolfwood returned to the bus, the bus driver completed their route to May City. Upon arriving, he helped get Wolfwood's luggage off the roof of the bus. He, along with two other men, struggled to lift the heavy cross and toss it down to Wolfwood, who caught it with ease. The bus driver noted how heavy the cross was, to which Wolfwood replied "''that's because it's so full of mercy''." {{Storylink|MURDER MACHINE}} | |||
