ameriponi: I FIGURED OUT HOW TO PUT A BAR HERE HAHAHA! (iggymuffins couldn't stop me from publishing in time to put a bar on the Video Tape XD) Umm what to say... I guess I should say that you really shouldn't take this seriously gaiz. It's a happy cracky mountain of weirdness~ OH AND AND WRITE A REVIEW PLEEEEEEEASE! I don't know about iggymuffins but I love to hear good feedback and its always good to know that we're not the only crazy people out there XD

"Ah..." Ludwig sighs. "This work is quite troublesome."

"Shut up. You're so depressing." Vash said solemnly. He ran his hand through his hair like a model.

"There's nothing we can do anymore. Might as well go home."

Ludwig sighs again "I'm afraid we can't. We have two more people joining the crew that we need to meet today."

"Wha?" Vast screeched, his pubescent voice cracking slightly. "I thought that was next week!"

"Nein. Now, let's go."

The burly German grabbed the small teenager, pulling him forward, like a dog on a leash.

"Let me go before I shoot you in the face!"

The smaller blonde struggles, though Ludwig is much stronger than he is.

"We both know you wouldn't do that to me." Ludwig said as he turned around and smiled at Vash. Was it all in Vash's mind, or were there sparkles and flowers everywhere? Vash's face turns slightly red in colour.

"D-don't tell me what I can and cannot do! I am not like Kiku. I don't keep my opinions to myself, Kraut!"

"I-I express my opinions well!" a voice said.

Vash jerked out of his little world and back into reality, the place where him and Ludwig would never be together. He turned slowly to see who had burst his bubble, to see Kiku standing there, stating his opinion bluntly. Speak of the Asian. (A/N: Iggymuffins: Hello, it's the aforementioned Iggymuffins, who helped write this piece. Yes, I tried to tell Ameriponi that this saying, "speak of the Asian," did not make sense, but unfortunately, they would not listen. I would just like to confirm that "Asian" is definitely not a substitute for "devil", alright? Brilliant.)

Vash blinks, then glares at the slender Japanese student before breaking the gaze and striding ahead of Ludwig.

"Let's get this over with already."

"Vash, can you give us just a second?" Ludwig asked, looking downwards at the short Switz.

Before Vash could reply, Ludwig had already pulled Kiku over, and started whispering in his ear. Vash felt jealousy slowly creep up from his heart to his face.

He clenches his fists and looks away. The temptation to skip the orientation for the two new members and go to the shooting range instead crossed his mind. However, he'd be leaving Ludwig alone with Kiku, and there was no way that would happen.

"Wh-where is the other person?" Vash questioned, hoping the way he said it wasn't exposing his jealousy

A small, female with short blonde hair and green eyes comes into the small tech room. "I-I'm sorry I'm late... I got lost..." She nervously messes with the purple bow adorning her hair.

Ludwig shot up from whispering with Kiku, and turned slowly to face the petite girl. His eyes radiated an evil glare as he spoke with his deep voice.

"You're not even a freshman yet. Why are you here."

"U-um... I-I'm almost a freshman... And... I just wanted... to check out the club..." Her voice shrinks as she gets further into her sentence. She tugs nervously at her hair as Vash glares at Ludwig. "That's no way to talk to a lady! Have some manners!"

Ludwig looked at Vash with an almost sad puppy face. His eyes seemed as though he had just been heartbroken. Ludwig spoke up, less confidently, "So I guess we'll have five people in the tech group next year."

Vash turns to the girl "What's your name?" The girl straigtens up and bows. "M-my name is Lilli... N-nice to meet you..."

Kiku gasped at the fact she was smaller than him, and immediately zoomed over and shook her hand with sympathetic respect.

Lilli shakes Kiku's hand, thinking he was only being respectful and welcoming her to the club. She smiled slightly.

Vash turned to Ludwig, slightly scared of what his face might look like, but conquered his fear and swirled his head to face the German's blue eyes.

Ludwig had his arms crossed with a distasteful look on his face, almost as if he was angry.

Vash gulped as he tried to choke up the words caught in his throat. Finally, they burst out with a coolness.

"Who's the third... I-I mean the fourth... I-I-I mean the fifth person?" Yeah, real cool.

"Me." said a towering blonde headed boy with glasses that was lurking in the shadows.

"Berwald. Nice of you to join us." said Ludwig, with a hint of angst in his voice.

Only Ludwig knew of Vash and Berwald's past relationship, other than the said two.

"Ah... umm... should we do something?" said Kiku, sensing some form of tension in the air between the two burly blondes.

"I-I'm not sure..." Lilli responds. "Th-they seem to be quite scary..."

"D-don't be scared!" Vash accidentally shouted at the petite girl. "S-sorry... they're just... releasing tension... Wh-why don't we go somewhere else?"

"No. Stay here." Berwald shot his hand out and reached for Vash's arm, pulling him back.

"Oi! Don't touch him!" Ludwig belted and grabbed Vash's other arm.

"O-ouch! Let Go!" Vash looked pleadingly at both of the taller blondes.

"Freeze!" Kiku yelled, very seriously. He proceeded to pull out a small silver device.

"Oi! Kiku, what are you doing?" Vash yelled.

Suddenly, the device emitted a bright flash of light for a brief second.

"...Picture..." Berwald voiced intelligently.

Vash felt his face turn red, as he thought of what the picture Kiku just took must look like.

Ludwig and Berwald promptly let go of Vash's arms, looking extremely embarrassed.

Kiku stared at his camera with extreme delight, and rushed over to Lilli to show her the picture; he had to share his genius with someone!

Lilli smiled and nodded, making a small sound of approval at the artwork just presented to her. Kiku looked up from his masterpiece, to see the upsetting scene of his models being completely quiet and distressed.

"I-I'm sorry if I frightened you all..."

Ludwig coughed slightly to break the tension.

"I-It's okay..." Vash murmured.

"Um... If it's okay... I-I would like to see the club room..." Lilli said softly.

Berwald looks over at Vash and grabs him by the forearm. "Let's go see the club room."

Vash saw Ludwig grow a scowl as Berwald grabbed his arm.

"Let go of me." Vash snatches his arm back and starts striding towards the club room.

Ludwig walked forward, smirking as he passed the stunned looking Berwald.

Iggymuffins: Well, for crack, I believe that wasn't so bad. Editing was done by me, hopefully there isn't too many mistakes. As Ameriponi stated, please review. I mean, this one is less cracky than Berwald and the Video Tape... Slightly.
