One of Us
Disclaimer: I Own NOTHING…Oh! I own the Plotline though..=P
Author's Notes: *sniff*
First songfic, all that needs to be said
If God had a name, what would it be
and would you call it to his face
"Wolfwood? Wolfwood?!" Milly yelled, Frantically searching for the traveling priest, wondering where he might be.
"Where could he be? WOLFWOOD?!" She yelled one last time.
If you were faced with him in all his glory
what would you ask if you had just one question?
"Milly?" Meryl asked, walking up to a young woman crying woefully on a park bench in the deserted town. "Milly…I couldn't find him…"
And yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
"HE HAS TO BE HERE SOMEWHERE!" Milly looked up at Meryl, Tearstains all down her cheeks. "He has to…He said he would come back to me…"
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us?
Milly stands up and brushes past Meryl, whom is staring into nowhere with tears welling up in her eyes.
Just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home
*Flashback to Meryl, Milly, Vash and Nick hanging out on the bus*
If God had a face what would it look like
and would you want to see?
Milly walk into her hotel room and sits on the bed. She picks up a photo of Wolfwood she found a while back.
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
in things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints and all the prophets
Milly puts the photo away and walks outside, then looks up into the clouds. After a while she gathers up the courage and starts heading to the church.
And yeah yeah god is great
Yeah yeah god is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Milly reaches for the handle on the door, but stops and crumples into a heap on the stairs.
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us?
She realizes the pain she is putting herself through, stands up and grabs the handle of the door.
Just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home
Meryl walks up behind her and pulls her hand away.
"Don't go here, it will only make it worse." She said quietly, and helped Milly back to the Hotel.
He's trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nicholas D. Wolfwood is leaning on his cross just inside the door. He hears the voices of the girls faintly, but doesn't do anything about it.
'Why should I make them suffer for my Wrong doings?'
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in Rome
His blood slowly drips onto the church floor. His head slumps a bit as he falls into his final sleep.
And yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Milly and Meryl are outside the hotel, but have stopped to stare at the clouds casually drifting by.
What if god was one of us
Just a slob like one of us?
*Flashback of Vash and Wolfwood in the Quick Draw Competition*
Just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home
"Meryl"
"Yes Milly?"
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
"I want to go to the Church, Meryl" Milly looked to Meryl, the tears wiped away, but the stains still left on her cheeks.
Back up to heaven all alone
just trying to make his way home
"Alright…" Meryl stands up and walks to the church with Milly. Milly grabs the handle and pulls it open…
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in Rome
Distant screaming and frantic crying is heard in the distance just outside of town…
