Tears of Your Pain

Chapter 1 The Blackened Sky

Disclaimer: I want Vash. I want Vash. I want Vash. I want Vash. I want Vash. I want Vash. I want Vash. (-Looks around and gets napikin for drool-) It's depressing but true. -I. Don't. Own. Vash.- I know. It's a shocker. But unfortunately I don't. But I still want Vash...

A little child around the age of 6 came up to her house after getting off the bus with her little brother. She looked up at the sky to see its natural black-grey color. Every since she could remember it was that color. She thought this was unusual for the color of the sky. All the pictures in her books had a pretty light blue sky with white clouds. Her mom had told her it was because of humans. They had polluted the earth and they were paying the price for it. "Soon," she said, "all of this will be gone... Only certain people will make it out and even then their chances of survival without our planet Earth are slim." She didn't understand what her mother meant, but she had sensed a sadness in her voice that could only mean that something bad was going to happen.

She held her brother's hand as she went up the porch steps, but something was wrong. The door was always open with her mother standing in the doorway to help them in. She let go of her brother's hand as she pushed the door open since it was cracked open anyway. The little girl and her brother walked in together, dropping their bookbags and walking into the living room where the TV was running, showing an old TV show that her mom always liked to watch, but before that she noticed a foul smell, something that she could barley stand. Her nose cringed at the smell and stepped back at what she was seeing. The room's beige colored floor was stained with a dark red substance still fresh and warm. Her parents were lying in it. She could barley recognize them since it seemed like they were both shot in the head. She took her brother and snatched him out of the room before he could look around and notice what was going on. "Sis, what was that on the floor?" he asked.

She looked at him and told him to follow her as she let silent tears flow down her face at the thought of her parents dead. She had seen it. The brains spread out amongst their once beautiful home and their rotting corpse making the house smell like a tomb. She shut the doors behind her and grabbed her brother as she ran down the steps making her brother stumble. He was only two years younger then her and didn't need to be near the house with their murdered parents. She ran down the street with her brother trailing behind her, running with her as fast as his little feet would take him. She remembered how her mother used to comfort her and take care of her when she was sick or sad. Or how her dad would take her out in the back yard and play games with her and her brother. Memories came washing over her making her cry even harder till she couldn't see any longer and stopped running. She fell to the pavement shaking from sobs and being out of breath. She didn't know what to do. Her parents had left her and her brother all alone. From what she knew she didn't have any relatives. Her brother came and pulled her long, dark brown hair out of her face with his little pudgy hand, "What's wrong sis? Why did we run away from our house?"

She didn't know what to say to him and didn't have the time before she heard a screeching noise. It echoed through the neighborhood as she saw the residents walk out onto their porches looking up at the black sky as it turned red. She wiped the tears from her face and looked around. She didn't know why everyone started to scream or run to get to their cars, but she did know that she needed to get her brother out of there. She began to run with her brother, but she couldn't go where to cars were going so decided to go a different way. She went through an abandoned house to the back yard and through the fence that blocked of the woods.

She hesitated as she saw the dense woods. She didn't know if she was making the right decision about going into the forest, but really didn't have a choice. She grabbed her brother's small hands in hers and began to run through the woods.

!$#&! Lights, Camera, ACTION! !$#!

She had been walking through the woods for what had seemed forever. Even though they were in the woods she could still tell that the sky had turned almost completely black. She looked down at her little brother, "What's wrong wit the sky?" he asked. She looked up and said, "I don't know." She really didn't know and it scared her. She wanted to be back home with her mom and dad, but she knew she couldn't even if she wanted too. They kept walking, but couldn't tell whether it was night or day because it seemed like the same. She suddenly stopped. She could see a field.

She grabbed her brother and ran out onto the field to see a ship. She gasped at its size. It was the largest thing she had ever seen before. It was silver with a peculiar design, but something that she noticed the most was the writing on the side of the space craft. It read: PROJECT SEED.

!$#&! END! !$#&!

A/n: Alright! My first Trigun fanfic. Don't bash me too hard and constructive criticism is welcomed. I also treasure my good reviews and LUV reading them. As you can tell I'm not a very loved fanfic writer and hope that this story will become something really good, but you can't really tell how good a fanfic is unless you read more chapters then when it starts to really suck yu bash the writer in a good way (a.k.a. 'constructive criticism'). Please, leave a review and tell me how you think the story's going. I also know that you probably don't know who the little girl is in the fic or the boy, but it will all start making sense in the 2nd chapter (I hope...). It will also tie in with the anime/manga Trigun. I will update as soon as I get 5 reviews or I'm bored again and need something to do. Let's hope it's the 5 reviews, huh? I know this is a long author note and a lot of yu probably didn't read it all (Or read it at all... poopers...), so... I guess I'll let you go and review now. LUV YU! (-blows kisses-)
