HELLLOOO Im back again! Hey! Dont curse your luck. On a more serious note,
I was compeltely surprised when I opened my mailbox today. It seems that
there are actually people who like my writing. I am NOT going to mention
any names (though you can see for yourself) but one person said they were
nearly brought to tears at the beginning of the last chapter. Damn, that
surprised the hell out of me. Now, seeing as the last couple of chapters
have been.....well sad and a little angsty I am going to give you readers a
bit of comic relief. And, doont worry QuietOne it won't be the same comic
relief as before! Oh yes, I'm sorry if any of you actually wanted Layne to
die, but I was under threat of bodily harm form many people not to kill her
off. Want names? sure. A couple reviewers, Layne herself, Grayfall, Nixie,
Meryl Vash, my seven annoying brothers, and then all the rest of my little
'friends' . Grrr. I can;t even direct my own stories wiithout being
threatened to be locked in a closet with that arrogant moron Hiei
(grrr.......try it and you die).This sentence WILL NOT MAKE SENSE UNLESS
YOU READ MY NEW YYH FIC THAT I AM GOING TO POST SOON! Its a SI Fic, so
please check it out. Now, on with the story.Oh yeah, does anyone think this
story is Mary-Sueish?
Disclaimer: I don't own Trigun so screw off lawyers. *glares at Knives* Dont even think about it.
Me:*takes a drink of soda*

Now back to the story There is a minor time skip, nothing big.....
***Approxamatley 1 day after Laynes 'funeral'***
Grayfall, Nixie and Zac were outside lounging in the sun. It was a particularly happy day for all of them. Layne was back, the towns people were pacified, and the weather was nice for once. Layne had passed out shortly after waking up at her funeral, so no on had discussed the events of her running away. Yet. Vash and Meryl were still pretty mad at her, but then, when your daughter dies and then comes back to life it's pretty hard to hold a grudge. All three teens looked up from their conversations as screaming graced their ears.
Layne came streaking (not that way gutter minded person) out of the house, screaming bloody murder.Not far behind was a very angry looking Knives, grasping a bottle of antiseptic stuff and some gauze. Everyone in the immedeate area had turned to see the commotion. (A/N I think this would be a very comical sight, KNIVES running after someone that hes NOT trying to kill hahahah, I better stop before he gets really mad). Knives got angirier at the attention she was gathering to them.
Nixie and Zac were almost immedeatly succumbed (OH YEAH 2 CENT WORD!) to fierce laughter. Grayfall just stood up, an impatient look on his face. This was the third time today that this had happened. Layne, seeing Grayfall made a beeline for him.
"SAVE ME SAVE ME!"she yelled as she used Grayfall as a shield. With a sigh Grayfall grabbed the terrified girl and smacked her in the back of the head.
"HEY!"Layne yelled as Grayfall dragged her back into the house by the back of her neck, grumbling the whole way.
"And your supposed to be some big tough outlaw. Hmmpph, where the hell did those people get THAT idea?" he grumbled, depositing Layne back in her respective bed.After his outburst at the funeral he had returned to his normal self. Being 'mean' and helping Lorienth keep Layne in line was how he was (A/N Sorry if I didn't put more of this in before. Grayfall isn't necessarily all lovey-dovey with Layne and is constantly on her case about things. Kinda like Meryl was with Vash...It think. HELP!).
"You'd better stay there this time Layne. I'm not kidding," Grayfall yelled, pointing threateningly at Layne.
"But it HURTS! And its BOring, And I just don't wanna!" Layne whined. Grayfall sighed, exasperated.
"I swear, you act more like a baby each and every day" he sneered, walking out of the room. Just as Layne started to sneak out of bed Grayfall yelled at her.
"DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT LAYNE! OR I'LL TELL VASH YOU'RE AWAKE!"
Layne paled at this. She really had no desire to be yelled at by her father. Besides, she still wasn't used to actually FOLLOWING the rules (A/N does anyone know how to do italics?). Knives had agreed reluctuclantly not to tell Vash she was awake yet. It had took alot of whining, or 'wheedling' as Layne called it but she had won out in the end.
"I'm just to damn irresistable," she had said, making a 'sexy pose' and smiling in a 'tempting manner'. All this had accomplished was a smack in the head from everyone in the room. Speaking of Knives he was now in the room, still holding the antiseptic bottle and gauze.
"Are you going to behave no you big chicken?" he asked agitatedly. Layne frowned and turned away, looking hurt.
"Well, if thats how you feel than don't bother!" she said haughtily. Unfortunatley, Knives saw through her little act.
"Heh. You think I'm THAT stupid? I would never fall for a trick like that!" he laughed. Layne glowered again and turned away dramatically throwing an arm over her for head.
"Do what you must,sir,"she said holding the 'dramatic' pose.Knives just shooke his head and unscrewed the anitseptic bottle.
"This is gonna hurt like hell, but then, I guess nothing hurts worse than death," Knives said right before pouring the goop on one of Laynes scratches.
******3 hours later******
Vash entered Layne's room to see a very pissed looking Layne and Grayfall holding a bottle of antiseptic stuff on the floor. Grayfall had swirly eyes and a huge lump in the middle of his forehead.
"I DONT WANT THAT SHIT ANYWHERE NEAR ME AGAIN!" Layne yelled, her face a startling red. Vash and Grayfall winced and the intensity of the yell.
"Sorry, sorry!" Grayfall yelled, retreating out the door as a lamp flew by his head and smacked Vash in the face.
"Oh, eheh, sorry.....Dad..." Layne said, blushing furiously, a huge sweat- drop on her head. Vash frowned at her and pulled a chair up by her bed.
"How are you feeling?"he asked.Layne shrugged.
"Fine I guess,"
"We need to talk,"
"What about?"
"YOu?"
"Why?"
"You know why,"
"I do?"
"Yes now stop stalling!"
"Fine fine I'm sorry!"
"Good you should be! YOu have caused us alot of hell latley!" Vash said, looking directly into Layne's eyes. What he saw there surprised him. He saw himself reflected out of his daughters eyes. Maybe what everyone said was true, maybe they were almost exactly alike. But then, somwething else flashed behind her emerald eyes. Worry, fatigue,despair. It was all there, lurking beneath the surface.
"Why," was all Vash asked. Layne fiddled with the blanket, looking down.Gently Vash grabbed her chin and forced her to look into his eyes.
"Layne, I might not have known you long, but if your so much like me, then I should know this. You're hiding things. Terribly important things that your family should know. Something happened that night to make ou so mad at your mom. Soemthing happened back then to make you leave like that. And most of all, something happened while you were gone to make you and outlaw and cause the pain and anguish to lurk in your eyes. I'm your father and as your father I'm not gonna ask you to tell me whats going on in that head of yours. I'm telling you to tell me," Vash said in a very un-Vash like stern tone.
Layne was still forced to look in his eyes. He felt her struggle to look away, so he wouldn't see through the lies she would tel, but he held her firm. "I have absolutley no idea what you're talking about," Layne siad, finally wrenching her face away. Vash looked a bit angry at this.
"Don't lie to me,"
"I-I'm not lying,"
"Yes you are,"
"No I'm not,
"Yes you are,"
"No I'm not,
"No you're not,"
"Yes I am!"
Layne's worde reveberated through the room and Vash smiled trimuphantly. With a glower Layne turned away.
"That was a dirty trick,"she muttered, studying the wall.
"You do the same thing,"
"Whatever. Nothing is going on, I just got mad at Mom is all,"
"Liar,"Vash said. Layne was silent for a few minutes, then she turned back to him.
"Dad?"
"Yes, Layne?" Vash asked. He thought he had won the little game.Suddenly a lamp smashed into his head and he was being carted out of Layne's room.He landed in a heap right outside the door. Layne locked it behind him, leaning on the wall.
"Man, that was harder than I thought it was gonna be," she wheezed, limping back to her bed. With a sigh she collapsed onto the bed. She felt to tired to move, but did anyways, grabbing some ear plugs off of the dresser and plugging them in her ears just as Vash started banging on the door to let him. With a small sigh she passed into the world of sleep.
Well. THat chapter is done. How did you like my little stab at humor? I thought it was pretty funny. But then again, I have an extremley strange sense of humour. Like one day this kid was riding down the street on his bike and fell. he wasnt hurt very much and I cracked up. IT WAS SOOOOO FUNNY! I helped him up and stuff though, laughing the whole time. I'm so warped, I swear. Anyways, R&R if you want. Flames welcome. I think their funny, even though I haven't really got one yet. Thats ok though. If you do flame though, then you'd better watch out so that your pants don't burst into flames. Again, you won't understand that if you don't read my YYH fic that is coming soon!
