Part 1: Crazy Crazy Day! That, and a whole lot of jelly beans.

******************************************************************
It was a nice, pleasant day in Trigun world...wherever that may be. Vash was happily walking along, looking for some donuts. Actually, he was looking for a store that sold donuts, but that's not important. Anyways, as he was walking along, little did he know that 2 omnipotent beings called Authors were gleefully devising ways to mess up his happy little world.
Millie saw Vash walking and hurried to catch up to him. Grinning, she poked him on the back, causing him to quickly swivel. "Hi Mr. Vash!" she said, then suddenly jumped 6 feet into the air. Now, Millie was a rather stable person who didn't normally jump for no reason. But, see, she had a reason. Maybe this will help you:
INSTANT REPLAY::
Millie said "Hi Mr. Vash!" Directly after greeting Vash, she heard a deeper voice from behind her comment "Hi Mr. Vash." Now, this would scare most people, so Millie was quite frightened. And she jumped.
Upon finally landing on solid ground again, she found herself facing Vash. "Oh, sorry, Mr. Vash. I heard a voice from behind me and it scared me!" Millie turned around and blanched. "I'm an idiot! How did I not turn, cause here's Mr. Vash! But I thought I turned around!" Turning around again, she saw Vash. "WAAAAAAAAAA" she screamed, realizing that there were two Vashs! And they both looked exactly the same...wait, if they were both Vash, then they would look the same. Of course, Millie being Millie, it took her a while to realize that. While she was pondering this strange thing called a thought, the Vashs were pondering eachother.
"Hi, brother!!!" said the Vash that wasn't Vash, causing Vash (the one that actually was Vash) to extrude a giant sweatdrop.
"Um....do I know you?"
"Oh yeah, I forgot. Well, I'm Gorky, and I am your brother in the minds of the strange messed up beings called Authors."
"Authors? Wha-?" Vash was only even more confused. "So you're sort of my brother but not really? I don't get it."
"You don't have to," said Gorky. "I don't either. Anyways, how about we find something to eat?"
"Donuts? Okay," said Vash. And so the two newfound friends (at least, they were both stupid enough to instantly like eachother) walked off happily.
******************************************************************
San was plotting things that were most likely evil, when he was interrupted by a nameless minion. "Um, San sir? Vash the Stampede has been sighted recently, in the last 5 minutes."
San grinned. "Good, because I could really use that $$60,000,000,000 bounty! I'll be hunting him myself." San had a surprising lack of money for someone with such high-tech weapons, computers, etc. Actually, he had a lot of debt, but what was the point of actually paying for stuff? Better to live life dangerously. Well, sort of dangerously, after all, what could annoyed and underpaid vendors do to him? If you couldn't tell, San had a rather large ego and fancied himself as the only person who could catch/kill Vash. It had to do with his strange past-wait, I'm not supposed to tell you about that yet. Anyways, San got up slowly and went to his case of weapons. Which one? Hm. Maybe that? No, no. Oh! That.. etc. He was very slow at making decisions.
As he finished picking, Myuun was happily walking down the street. She hadn't the foggiest idea how she got to this particular street at this particular time in this particular world, but she frankly didn't care. Her silvery pigtails bounced and her silver eyes sparkled, carefree. Actually, Myuun was a ditz. Then, suddenly, she saw something rather cool. Oh, KAWAII!! she thought and rushed towards the young, darkhaired man she saw. Staring deeply into San's beautifully clear amber eyes, she felt calm like she - um...oops? Wrong story. Anyways;
Surprising San a lot, she hugged him tightly. "Oh, Hi!" she said, grinning. "You're so kyuuuute!" And pulling the shocked San along, she headed towards the nearest small resturant.
Little did all these strange people (and 2 actually were anime characters!) know that their lives would soon be intertwined by a strange thing called a Convient Demented Plot Device(TM), CDPD for short. To put this in English, that means that Lise is too bored to have them meet interestingly so they will all by some strange coincidence go to the same resturant.
And since you all know now what happens, you can predict that they all happened to go to the same resturant. San caught a glimpse of spiky blonde hair and a red coat, and rushed towards Vash. Myuun cried cutely, "Wait, San-kun!" and rushed to follow him.
San quickly pulled out the gun he had finally decided on, a compact, sleek ebony colored weapon. "Vash, stop! I have you in my sights!" Unfortunately, San being totally unaware of Gorky's existence, had picked the wrong person and Gorky didn't stop. In fact, he actually started jogging so he could catch up with Vash, who had deserted him a while ago. "Um, EXCUSE ME!" yelled San, feeling indignant at being totally completely ignored. Myuun at that time caught up to him.
"Hey, San-kun? Why are you trying to kill this guy? He's not Vash the Stampede."
"Of course he is! Look at that coat, that hair... He is so Vash!"
"Is not!"
"Is too!" And with those words, Myuun's and San's conversation rapidly degenerated into a shouting fight, Vash, Gorky, and bounties totally forgotten.
******************************************************************
Meanwhile, thanks to the CDPD(TM), Gorky had been sufficiently freaked out. Why did that guy think I'm Vash? I'm so obviously not Vash! Of course, what Gorky, being an idiot, didn't realize was that they were twins, and you would think they would look at least a bit similar. But then, Vash wasn't that smart. And Gorky was essentially a clone of him. (hehe, the Deranged Neurotic Authors(TM) strike again!) Gorky shook his head and pulled out a bag of jellybeans from one of the many pockets in his long red coat. "Have I tried this flavor? No. Yay!" he muttered to himself. Gorky's one addiction was jellybeans.
Finally, after aimlessly walking for a while, he found Vash buying some donuts. "Hey Vash!" he said, walking up to his twin. "Find donuts?"
"Um-hm. Mpngh scmrpf sgome!" [translation: Some good ones!] mumbled Vash, whose mouth was stuffed full of donuts. He had just blew a whole lot of money (how does he get money anyways?) on donuts. At this moment, San, who had finally gotten Myuun to shut up, saw them conversing on the side of the road.
"Ha!" He grinned predatorily. "Finally!" Rushing towards them, he pulled out his gun for the second time. Myuun looked at him.
"San-kun! What are you doing! Wahhh!" she wailed, a pacifist through and through. Myuun didn't like San's gun, and objected to anyone so cute carrying a gun.
"Vash the Stampede!" San yelled, and sent a shot heading towards Gorky. Instantly, the street was cleared except for Vash, Gorky, Myuun, and San. Of course, Gorky sharing Vash's bullet dodging ability, he was able to easily avoid the bullet. Slightly surprised that he was shot at, he swallowed his Kiwi-flavored jellybean quickly and started choking.
"ACK! COUGH! BLAH!" Vash freaked out at seeing his new friend choking and started pounding him on the back. San and Myuun promptly extruded very large sweatdrops at this strange sight.
"Um. San-kun? You shot at the wrong person," Myuun helpfully commented.
"How do you know? There's two Vashs! Look! It's scary!" yelled San.
"San-kun, trust me!" Myuun's cute, smiling face looked up at San. "That one," she said pointing to Gorky, "is called Gorky. The other one is Vash."
"Then how the heck do you tell them apart?" San was very very frustrated. "They have the exact same face, hair, coat, and who knows what else?"
Myuun grinned. "I know something that they don't have in common!" [No, I did not mean it like that!] "Just wait till they take out a gun!" She smiled, obviously not realizing that she was being sort of dumb by not helping San. But that was Myuun; a total ditz.
Meanwhile, Gorky had successfully swallowed the Kiwi-flavored jellybean. Now he was ready to start one that was an interesting shade of green, but he suddenly remembered the shot. "Hey, Vash? Do you have any idea why that guy over there suddenly shot at me?"
Vash thought for a bit then lit up. "Oh yeah! Some people have been going around shooting at me recently too. Something about a bounty or something..I don't know." Now it may seem to you that Vash is incredibly stupid. But if you consider that the current author has seen a lot less Trigun then she would like to and isn't really the best on remembering exactly what the characters are like, then it makes perfect sense.
"Oh. I see," Gorky said while nodding. That made sense to him. Those bad people, bounty hunters! They didn't realize that the world was made of PEACE AND LOVE!!! Everybody was staring at him strangely, he realized he had just yelled out "Peace and love!" really loudly and did the accompanying twisted victory sign.
"Is that how Vash is?" asked San, and Myuun replied, "Yep!" Myuun smiled up at San. She was so lucky she found this really kyuuuute guy! Oh happiness! Meanwhile, San was wondering just which gods hated him today.
"Excuse me, I hate to interrupt this happy party," said San, "but I'm here to try to kill or capture Vash the Stampede! Which of you are he?"
From behind him, Myuun whispered, "The one on the left!" But as he turned around to glare at her, she whispered, "Oh look, they're switching! Ack, I can't keep up with them! They're moving fast!" Poor Myuun sat down with a bump.
San turned around. "Okay, no funny jokes-" a flying jellybean hit him in the nose, and he snorted. "I want you to know that I am a successful-" Ok, well, sort of but not really "-bounty hunter and that even you can't stop me!"
"Can jellybeans stop you?" Gorky's innocent question made him laugh and San freak out.
"ARGH!!!!" San was really annoyed now, and Myuun's laughter wasn't helping him in the least bit. A small black cat with really big eyes chose that moment to use his head as a stepping stone, jumping on him. That just made San's day, as you can imagine, and he just ran.
Myuun cried, "San-kun! Come back!" and followed him, her heels making it hard to run. Vash and Gorky simply stared after them.
"Okay...that was rather interesting," commented Vash.
"Yes. Why do they want to kill you?
"Well, it's something about me being a hazard, and it has something to do with insurance."
"Insurance?"
"Well, things have a tendency to ..uh..sort of..."
"Yeah?"
"Get blown up around me."
"Oh."
"So these 2 people have to stay around me all the time. One is Millie, who you met."
"Who? The girl who freaked out?"
"Yeah. The other is Meryl, you haven't met her yet."
"Oh. Okay."
"Anyways, do you want one of my donuts?"
"Sure! You can have some jellybeans. They're really good."
"Okay!"
******************************************************************
He's such an idiot. And so is this other person. thought the girl, watching Vash and Gorky from a window high above them. She had her hair in two long braids looped around her head, but the color was indistinguishable because it was so dark in the room she was in. San, well, San has difficulties. And Myuun is just a normal ditz. No worries on that end, but who knows about these people? She started pacing nervously in her small room. She had paced this room many times before, and she knew it was 5 steps in one direction and 8 in the other. It was so small and dirty that she almost couldn't stand it. But she would survive; she had done this many times before.
******************************************************************
"San-kun, why did you run away like that?" queried Myuun.
"ARGH!" Poor San was still mildly insane after the encounter with Gorky.
"Gorky's fairly normal."
"ACK!"
"At least, as normal as someone who's essentially a clone of Vash can be."
"BLAH!"
"He does like jellybeans a bit much, but then he doesn't like donuts."
"GACK!"
"Kiwi jellybeans are good."
"WARGH!"
"But then, I think my favorite would have to be the buttered popcorn."
"ACK!"
"No, no. Maybe the black kind?"
"UGH!"
"Nah, those aren't so good."
"ICK!"
"Or how about pina colada? I like those."
"YUCK!"
"Well, I think I'd have to say that pina colada are my favorite kind."
"BLAR!"
"How about you, San-kun?"
"..."
"San-kun?"
"..."
"San-kun?!?!?!?"
"......"
"SAN-KUN???"
"......"
"Are you hurt? What's wrong, San-kun?"
"......"
"What's the problem?"
"Myuun, the problem is you."
"He talked! Yay! Oh happiness!"
"..."
"What was the problem again?"
"Myuun...the problem is you. How many times do I have to say, Go Away!"
"But...but...I like you!"
"Okaaaaay..."
"You're kyuuuuute!"
"..." At this, San decided he couldn't take any more "San-kuns" and "Kyuuute"s. Getting up swiftly, he pulled Myuun to her feet as she was rather attached to him. "Ack." he stated simply and started sprinting in a way to make Marion Jones proud.
"WAIIIIT!!! SAN-KUN!" cried Myuun, following him into the sunset.
