Trigun Maximum. Vash's past and present explained.
Vash the stampede stands in the middle of a pure black landscape. All he can see is black. In the distance, a siloutette appears. It is a female with long hair in a dress. No noticable features are visable. "Who are you?" vash shouts at the shape. The female turns to him and gives a sad look. A gun appears behind her and is shot. The girl startes to fall. Vash wakes up panting in fear. "What... what was that?" He looks around. Everything is normal. He's in the city of December. His coat and gun are hanging on the wall. He breathes a sigh of relief and looks out a nearby window. Outside the window is two women. "Come on! Our bus is leaving soon!" The short, black-haired woman called Meryl shouted. "Yeah vash! Come on!" the taller, brown haired woman called millie shouted. Their bags were in their hands. "Yeah yeah, I'm coming." Vash called out to them. He quickly got dressed and rran outside, carefully tucking his orange glasses into his pocket. In a second he meets up with Millie and Meryl, the two workers from Bernardelli Insurance company. They run to the bus and almost miss it. The threesome crawl into the bus, handing 100$$ to the driver. They walk to the back and meet up with a Black/blue haired priest. Nicolas J wolfwood. "Its about time you showed up! I was waiting for a half an hour!" Vash opens his mouth to speak but meryl beans him over the head. "We were waiting for him." Vash jumps up. "hey! its not my fault!" "yes it is!" Meryl shouts. Immediatly after, the two notice that everyone is staring at them. They laugh nervously and sit in their seats. "So! Where are we heading?" Millie asks. Wolfwood looks curiously at her. "You mean you don't know?" She laughs. "No Idea!" Wolfwood falls to the floor. "We're going to the city about 400 iles away. Its called Shadow City." Millie gives a cute look. "Oooh! Shadow City!" Vash sighs and leans back. "This is gonna be a long trip." About 10 minutes later, everyone but Vash (and the driver) is asleep. He stares out the window and thinks of the dream. :it makes no sense... who was that girl?: He thought to himself, setteling down and fallin asleep with a cute look on his face. *A few hours later* Vash wakes in pain as he is beaned over the head by Meryl. "HEY! What was that for?" Meryl sighed. "We've been trying to wake you up for the last 50 iles! We're almost to Shadow City." Vash rubs hs head and looks around. Meryl is straight in front of him while Wolfwood and Millie are talking. He looks outside and sees nothing but sand. A few iles in front of him he sees the town. Shadow City. Appropriately named. Everything seemed so dark. "Why are we here again?" Millie asked, fear in her voice. "We're here because theres a crime problem and we need to see what the heck is going on and stop it!" Merly snapped. Millie winced and looked around. After a minute, the bus stopped and the door opened. Meryl, Millie, vash, Wolfwood and a black cat walked out. "MEROW" The voice said. vash jumped and turned around to see the cat. He tried to pick it up but it clawed his hand. The cat scampered away with Vash holding his hand. "Man... that hurt!" He was beaned over the head by Meryl again, for no apparent reason. The bus pulls away and the group is left alone. There is no one in sight. They walk cautiously through the city until they hear commotion in a local tavern. They walk in to see a girl being attacked by a bunch of old men. "Stop it! Leave me alone!" She screamed. The men held the girls arms and held her still. "No way. We won you in a game so your ours to do with as we please. Right boys?" He gives an evil smile and the men around her laugh. Millie and Meryl try to destract the men with a box of doughnuts. "Hello. My name is.. Meryl.. Meryl strife from the Berna-" The men give an angry look and Meryl stopps. "What do you want?" Millie hides (kinda) behind Meryl and meryl tries to keep cool. "I just wanted to give these to you as a. a trade of sorts. In exchange for these donuts and about *looks into her wallet* 50$$, we get to talk to this girl alone." The men laughed. "Yeah right. Like we'd give this thing up for a mesally 50 double dollars? Yeah right." The leader of the men draws a gun. Meryl takes a step back. Wolfwood and Vash look at each other for a second, then devise a plan. Vash silently runs to one side of the tavern and Woldwood runs to the other side. Millie and Meryl spot the two and kept stalling. The gun was pointed directly at Meryl. "Mer- Meryl... what do we do know?" The men laugh. "the only thing we can." she gives millie a scared look. Immediately behind the first man, grunts are heard. Vash has a gun to one guys head and wolfwood has the other one pinned beneath the cross. "Wha- what the hell are you doing?" The only other man said. Meryl pulls out a small gun while Millie's gun snaps its sling, falling on the mans foot. Needless to say, he screams in pain. Vash grabs the girl from the mans arm and helps her run outside. The other men are too stunned to go after them, leaving room for the group to escape. As soon as they get to the other side of the town, Vash gets a good look at the girl. she was about 5'7 with long, brown and blue hair. She was wearing a scarlet dress that went to her ankle. It had a slit in it from the bottom of one side to her thigh. Vash was drooling at the outfit, who was beaned by Meryl. "Tha- thank you. How can I pay you back.. wait. whats your name?" She asked, looking over Vash. "My name is Valentienez, Alkeliina, Xiafax Sicidaboherez, Gumbigollia, Blue Stravadori, Talentrent Pierre" *takes a breath.* Andri Carton-Hymess Ivanochii Baledues george Doitzel Kaiser the third. Don't hesitate to call." The girl has a confused look on her face. "what are you talking about mr vash the stampede?" Millie screamed. VAsh looked like he was about to pull his hair out. "I hate it when you call me by my FULL NAME!" The girl looked at him. "Vash... the stampede? Who's that?" Everyone stared at her. "You.. you haven't heard?" Wolfwood asked. "Heard what?" The group faced each other. "shes never heard of you Vash! Thats one in a million that hasn't thought of trying to kill you!" Vash turned around to the girl and had a cute smile on his face. "And may I ask what your name is my dear?" The girl looked into his eyes. "WHAT??" they all screamed. The girl looked at them with a curious look on her face. "Yeah. I am the daughter of Rem Savrem. At least, I was one of the ones that helped her." vash had a wierd and sad look on his face. "Your... rems daughter? Wait a second.... Jen?!?" He looked at her. "How. How did you know my name?" She looked into his strnagely familiar eyes. "No.. Your alive? I don't believe it.. Vash!" She looked him over. "You've grown a but haven't you? How long has it been?" vash gve his cute look. "A hundred years at least... I can't believe it. I thought only I had survived." Jen shook her head. "I was behind Rem when she said goodbye to you. She pushed me into one of the pods and told me to find you." She looked at the ground. her view was blocked by Vash's red coat. He was giving his sad but funny crying. He held her for a second then looked her over. "You've grown a bit in 100 years. What have you been doing?" She looked at him. "I've been running... away from him." She said. Wolfwood, Millie and Meryl asked at the same time. "WHO?!?" Even Vash was asking that. Jen gave a sad look. "....... Legato." Vash gasped.
