It was horrible...horrible horrible horrible......
Layne sat out on a random ledge, staring into the 5 o'clock sunrise....Today was the final day...one more row of plants and they would face him.....Maximus...
And uneasy silence had settled into the cave lately....no one knew if they would come out of this alive...and no one wanted to think about it...
There was a soft tap on her shoulder and Layne whirled around to see her sister standing there, smiling.
"Layne....I just thought you should know....Mom and Dad are here....they arent very happy either..."she said softly. Layne's eyes went wide...she was in deep shiznic...but that would have to wait. Marching purposefully down, Layne put a set look on her face. She was going to face her parents...she was going to......retch?
Layne puked her guts out all of the sudden, Lorienth immedeatly held her hair back for her sister, looking at the blonde with concern.
"Layne what--"
"Stress" was the immedeate cut off.She was barely handling this situation as it was....and now her parents decided now would be a good time to show up.....this was just grand....Sighing Layne stragtened up, shoving Lorienth ahead.
"Will you umm....stall them for a while?" she asked gravely. Lorienth smiled and nodded.She knew her sister's distress....Vash....their father was going to kill his younger daughter....if Meryl didnt get to it first. Lorienth scampered ahead, intercepting her mother and father, watching Legato yell at his own son, alternating between yelling and hugging, and all the others smile in relief.
Coron and Analese had hung back, not wanting to get in the way, so Lorienth saw it fit to introduce them to her parents in order to stall them from Layne. Everyonce in a while somone would cast an uneasy glance at the plant bulbs in the back, grimacing. Knives was especially uneasy.
And then Layne came slinking down the steps.She was trying not to attract attention, and no one but Grayfall noticed...she was getting along just fine.......................until she tripped and went spiraling down the stairs, landing with a thud at the bottom. There was silence as everyones head snapped up.Meryl, seeing her child rushe forward and hugged her, getting a big sruprise out of everyone. They had all figured it would be happy go lucky Vash doing that. Meryl hugged Layne for a small amount of time before she smiled and let her go, walking outside for a little alone time.
There was a mass, electrified silence as Vash and Layne stared at eachother. Wolfwood and milly figeted uncomfortable, Knives eyeing the situation with curiosity.
'And dear little brother gives in and lets the whelp get away with it as always...'he thought amusedly, not even bothering to tap into his twins thought process.He was such a softy. There was a ruffle of clothing as Vash walked closer and closer to Layne.....who looked panicked at the moment.
Vash was standing right in front of her now, and Layne was the only one that could see his eyes. And boy....was he pissed. Grabbing the teens arm he hauled her up the stairs and out the door, thouroughly surprising his brother and Wolfwood, who let out a snide comment and a whistle.
"Well....thats not a good sign...I'd hate to be in he shoes..."
Knives just glared and walked outside to eaves drop.He wanted to hear what his brother was going to say.
**************************************************************************** *******************
It was an awkward situation, Layne having her father drag her up the stairs and outside. she knew she was in trouble...but this was a shocker......a real shocker.... Vash finished dragging her outside. Letting go of her arm and turning around for a minute, doing god knows what. And when he faced his likeness, there was a large difference between the two.
Vash's eyes were stone cold and angry ((Like the episode where he almost killed the idiot that killed alot of people in the town...before he killed Legato *sniffle*)). Layne gulped. This was not going to be good.
"What were you thinking?"Vash asked quietly, looking down at Lorienth who was sitting on the ground now, head hung. The girl didnt answer, just hanging her head in shame. It was true, she felt bad.... A few minute passed in silence, Vash waiting for an answer somewhat patiently.
"Layne, what were you thinking.." Vash asked in a somewhat louder tone, taking deep breaths to keep calm. Layne still did not answer. 10 minutes passed by like this. Knives was tense, the others long since joining him outside to eavesdrop.
Vash wanted an answer and he wanted it now.He was fed up with Layne's silence.Grabbing her by the shoulders he hauled her up, staring her in the eyes.
"TELL ME WHAT YOU WERE THINKING LAYNE!" he roared, shaking the girl a bit. Layne didnt know what to say.There was nothing to say, so she just did the only thing she could. Kept quiet. Vash wanted and answer though.And he wanted it now. He was frantic.He wanted to beat some sense into his daughters skull.
The seconds ticked agonizingly by.....there was nothing but stark silence everywhere, even the wind had ceased blowing. And then a harsh slapping noise filled the air. Layne's eyes were wide.......her father had just hit her.......And then ther was another. and another...and another.....
The werent punches, the werent slaps....they were something else. Vash just kept on doing it until he was content. Layne had remained silent the whole time, tears threatining her eyes. She had a vague idea that this was someting a father would do to punish an impudent child, but she wasnt sure. Then Vash hugged her. Talk about mood swings. Still a little sore lorienth grimaced but hugged back anyways.
"I dont know dad...: she whispered in his ear before letting go. Putting on a brave face she looked him in the eyes.
"It's time for me to liberate all the plants.....and kill Maximus,"she said in a stable confident voice. Vash nodded, eyes a little softer than before. It wasnt until she met the others down stairs that she realized a sickening thought........she actually intended to kill Maximus........she was actually planning to do something she swore she'd never do....
Well...that was a weird chatper....go figure........oh well.........m\ust be the sugar hi......and the hour........ok im posting this now
