Sarge's Truck

"No mention of the man driving that truck?"

―Melinda May to Alphonso Mackenzie^[src]

Sarge's Truck is a vehicle owned by Sarge and his squad, which they use for land transportation.

History[]

Arrival on Earth[]

While the rest of his squad came to Earth on foot, Sarge chose to drive his truck. To ensure that their leader would arrive safely, Snowflake, Jaco, and Pax decided to destroy the Museum of Natural History that was in the same place as where the portal would open. Sarge drove through the portal at high speed crashing multiple S.H.I.E.L.D. SUVs. Sarge exited the truck and killed Fox, who was keeping Snowflake hostage. The two quickly got in the truck and left.^[1]

Hideout[]

Sarge had the truck cloaked and made invisible after his squad robbed Bob's Market. He then drove the truck to a shipping yard. During the stop, Snowflake searched through Tinker's belongings and found out that the group was low on piezoelectric gems which they needed for their equipment. The truck then became the scene for an argument as Pax complained about Tinker's death and claimed that they should all have come to Earth using the truck. Sarge then painted a portal inside the truck using the Spray Paint Transporter in preparation for the robbery of Charmont Jewelers, later connecting the truck to the jewel store's vault.

Using the portal, Sarge was able to leave the vault directly into the store, where he retrieved his Shrike Detector. As Melinda May had watched him walk through the vault's wall, she returned to the shipyard S.H.I.E.L.D. had previously unsuccessfully inspected, and was able to locate the cloaked truck. She was then able to enter the truck, in which she battled against Pax and Jaco, both of whom she defeated. May then managed to free Dana from Snowflake and helped her flee through the truck after preventing Snowflake from following them.

Upon noticing Dana fleeing from the scene, Sarge returned into the truck, where he found May fighting against Jaco and Snowflake, who Jaco had been able to bring back into the truck. Once again, May defeated her opponents, but stopped upon noticing Sarge's appearance. Snowflake thus used the moment to make her trip through the portal which brought May back into the jewel store's vault before Sarge deactivated the portal. Sarge then drove the truck away from the shipyard, pondering about the name of Phil Coulson that May had uttered upon seeing him.^[2]

Capture of Melinda May[]

In the aftermath of her capture by Sarge and Snowflake, Melinda May was taken inside the truck and incapacitated.^[3] Once she regained consciousness, she found herself tied to a chair with Sarge next to her while Snowflake was driving the truck. Sarge had Snowflake park the truck near an oil field, then sent her hunt down and bring back a Shrike host. Meanwhile, he remained in the truck with May, and talked with her about Phil Coulson, May's previous lover who looked exactly like Sarge. Once Snowflake signaled that she had completed her mission, both Sarge and May left the truck, so that May could see and kill the Shrike host by herself.

Following this trial, Sarge, Snowflake and May returned to the truck, with May now having understood that Sarge was hunting down the Shrike instead of creating them like she had supposed in the first place. Once Sarge gave more details about his plans, he took the truck's wheel, leaving May to be watched by Snowflake. However, May was able to trick Snowflake into approaching her, and hit her with a table before knocking her unconscious. She then went into the cockpit and attacked Sarge, trying to choke him with a rope. In response, Sarge violently steered the wheel before abruptly braking, causing May to be hit on the glass. However, after an intense battle in the cockpit, May was able to incapacitate Sarge and cuffed him to the truck's door before driving the truck to the Lighthouse.^[4]

Destruction of the Shrike Tower[]

"He turned on the auto-drive. You can't turn it off or slow the truck down. It was made to be a bomb-delivery device. It's locked onto her tower."

―Snowflake^[src]

The truck was eventually released from S.H.I.E.L.D. custody after the agents struck an uneasy alliance with Sarge, which included letting him drive the truck to the place where Izel was supposed to arrive on Earth. Sarge was allowed to pick Snowflake to accompany him, while Daisy Johnson and Melinda May were also tasked with going along. Later, Alphonso Mackenzie also ordered Deke Shaw to get into the truck and repair Sarge's Shrike Repeller. The crew then departed from the Lighthouse with Sarge driving the truck next to Johnson, while Snowflake, Shaw and May remained in the back of the vehicle. During the journey, Johnson tried to know more about Sarge's true nature, although he was reluctant to share details about his past.

Since her questions annoyed him, Sarge eventually sent Johnson back into the truck's back, where she discussed with May, while Shaw and Snowflake had begun to make out, much to the others' surprise. Sarge later stopped the truck and confronted Shaw about the repeller, stating that the repair had not resisted and ordering Shaw to fix it again. While Shaw worked with Snowflake by his side, Sarge sat with Johnson and May and narrated the time he had nearly killed Izel on Chronyca-2 and how he planned on killing her with his sword, which was thrusted into the truck's wall when Johnson revealed her powers after Sarge faked an attack on her.

The truck's crew then witnessed the creation of the Shrike Tower. As Sarge drove the truck towards the tower, May and Johnson received news from Mackenzie indicating that the truck contained an Atom Bomb which Sarge planned on detonating once the truck would impact the tower. Having tied up Snowflake, May and Johnson confronted Sarge, who refused to disclose where the bomb was hidden. Sarge was able to escape nonetheless, using the Spray Paint Transporter to arrive right into the Zephyr One after setting the truck on autopilot. Meanwhile, Johnson, May, Shaw and Snowflake began looking for the bomb, eventually finding it.^[5]

The truck collides with the Shrike Tower

As the truck neared the Shrike tower, with only three minutes before impact, Shaw did his best to try and defuse it, but failed. Therefore, second before the impact, Johnson decided to play all out and used her powers to shield the bomb from the vibration caused by the impact once the truck eventually collided with the tower. The idea was successful, and the truck destroyed the tower before stopping. However, the truck was then attacked by a swarm of Shrike that had been released from the tower and which the repellent was unable to keep at bay. One Shrike broke through the window and was nearly swallowed by Shaw, but he was saved by May who stabbed it with a dagger.

Although the crew did their best to barricade the truck, it soon appeared that it would not be enough to contain the Shrike's assault. Therefore, Johnson decided to once again use her powers and opened the door, forcing the Shrike to enter in one point, from which Johnson was able to destroy them and reduce them into shreds. The truck was then boarded by a group consisting of Leo Fitz, Jemma Simmons, Yo-Yo Rodriguez, James Davis, Jaco and Mackenzie, who had used the Spray Paint Transporter to escape from the Lazy Comet and arrive on the truck's roof. While the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents celebrated their reunion, Jaco picked up the still active Atom Bomb and used another portal to return into the Lazy Comet, detonating the bomb there. The truck was then safely returned to the Lighthouse.^[6]
